Carrying AK into Ming Dynasty

Chapter 866 Pain on the Skin (Fourth Change)

"Why is there such a large surplus?" Zhu Cihong asked doubtfully after being surprised.

Xishan Shanghe had already distributed a dividend in the first half of the year. Zhu Cihong remembered that it had distributed several million taels. It was a bit too much to have such a large surplus in less than half a year.

"My Majesty, you have to tell me even if you don't ask me. A few days ago, Zhuge Tieniu returned from South Merika and brought back a whole boatload of silver, totaling more than 800 million taels!
I heard that it was Aragorn's thanks, and now Aragorn has started training with our Da Ming's supplies, and is just waiting for Da Ming's army! "

This windfall was thanks to the new route developed by Xishan Commercial Cooperation. The Dutch blocked most of the routes along the coast of Daming, but ignored the Far East, because in the eyes of the Europeans, that piece of land still belongs to Rakshasa, the Netherlands People don't have that much strength to block the Far East.

However, the route in Vladivostok can only be used in summer, and it will be frozen in winter, and there are many islands, reefs and storms along the way, which is extremely dangerous.

"Is this the ocean that Liu Qing is after? It really has a future!" Zhu Cihong couldn't help but said.

Before that, Zhu Cihong didn't know anything about colonization, but now it's just a few people sent by Xishan Shanghe to get so much silver, how can Zhu Cihong not praise him?
Alas, Zhu Cihong suddenly sighed in his heart again, if Daming had a few more capable people, not to mention Liu Qing's ability, even half of his level would be fine.

In this way, Ming can divide his troops, conquer Europa in the west, go to Nanyang, Dongyang, and Merriga in the north and south, and let Liu Qing rest if he goes hand in hand. Otherwise, the king of Anguo County has been working hard outside all these years. He is the emperor. Also can't bear it.

"Your Majesty, this batch of silver and ministers will be sent to the palace in the afternoon, do you think they should be paid directly into the palace or not?" Zhang Weixian asked for instructions.

"No need, just send it to the household department directly, and say it was donated by me." Zhu Cihong held back the pain in his heart, and his expression was extremely generous and righteous.

Although Zhang Weixian didn't participate in the government affairs, as the Duke of the state, he still heard about what happened in the capital, and his heart shuddered when he heard the words.

"Your Majesty can set an example for the people of the world. It really shames me. In this case, I will donate all the money from this dividend to the treasury. When I go back, I will write to Duke Qian. I don't think he will." Be stingy." Zhang Weixian said solemnly.

The reason why the two were able to keep their titles was all because of the generous support of Liu Hongjian and Chongzhen when they organized the Hongmen Banquet to raise donations. Zhang Weixian knew in his heart that only by stepping forward in times of national crisis can he rest with the country.

Someone donated money to Zhu Cihong, of course he was unambiguous, he actually knew it in his heart, even though his father and Liu Qing plundered his relatives twice, the family still had no shortage of money.

But learning from the past, Zhu Cihong, as the descendants of most of the honored relatives, is not too embarrassed to go further. Fortunately, Zhang Weixian is a human being. Seeing that Zhu Cihong vaguely expressed his intention to continue to stalk the wool, he immediately took over the matter. down.

After Zhang Weixian went back, he wrote letters to Duke Qian in Yunnan and Bo Chengyi in Nanjing, and handed over their due shares to the treasury before writing the letters.

He couldn't wait until he got a reply from the two before donating. Moreover, he knew the nature of the two of them very well. Nan is in charge of the donations of the nobles.

In the next few days, Zhang Weixian contracted the most famous Zuixianju in the capital in his own name, and hosted a banquet for most of the nobles in the capital who had become nobles.

After drinking for three rounds, he told everyone present about the embarrassment of the court and the actions of the courtiers and the emperor. After that, Zhang Weixian fell silent, and only the nobles present were whispering.

But Zhang Weixian is not worried that these people will not donate at all. The reason is very simple. Zhang Weixian, who is a master of the mall, knows what these people are most afraid of.

Because the last donation made Chongzhen very angry, except for a very few nobles who survived, most of the nobles have become Liujue.

There are three forms of entrustment of titles. The first is hereditary, which is also the rarest, that is, the number of hereditary is unlimited and does not degrade. For example, the king of Anguo County on the head of Liu Hongjian, after he dies, his eldest son is also Anguo County King, there will be endless descendants.

The next class is hereditary. The so-called hereditary is actually hereditary, that is, when the grandfather passes it to the father, he must be lowered by one class, and when the father passes it to the son, he will be lowered by another class. If you want to achieve the title of grandpa, grandson, you have to work hard , Earn some credit by yourself and let the emperor reward you, you don't just sit and sleep in the palace.

Whether it is hereditary replacement or hereditary, there is an iron bond. Most of the meritorious ministers who followed the founding emperor to fight the world are treated this way, and the titles that are entrusted after that are basically nobility.

The so-called Liujue is a lifetime title, and the title is gone when a person dies.

A few years ago, those who could sit in the restaurant were basically hereditary replacements. Otherwise, even if they were hereditary, they would be invincible after nearly 300 years.

The most uncomfortable thing for them is to lose the titles left by their ancestors, and their greatest wish at present is to be rewarded so as to restore the glory of their ancestors.

In order to achieve this goal, most of the nobles sent their precious sons to the martial arts hall, hoping that their descendants would use the legacy of their ancestors to keep their titles.

Now, the British Duke Zhang Weixian came to collect donations again. Many nobles and nobles knew the relationship between the British Duke and the King of Anguo, so that they would think that this was the meaning of the King of Anguo.

The meaning of Anguo County King is basically the same as the meaning of the current sage Zhu Cihong. Last time he became a noble because of his short-sightedness and refused to contribute. If this time...

As Zhang Weixian wanted, Zhang Weixian got the promise of more than 110 nobles with just a few tables of meals, and the total amount of donations reached a terrifying [-] million taels.

Although the property of this group of people was evacuated last time, the nobles all have business to do, and Zhang Weixian was not surprised that the money came in quickly.

The Zuixian restaurant started, and in the following month, some nobles who didn't have time or didn't get Zhang Weixian's invitation to participate in the banquet took the initiative to find the door...

They have only one purpose - to donate money, and they must accept it if they don't want to donate. The British government has never been so lively.

The fundraising continued until the end of the year. Almost every three or two days, Zhang Weixian, Mu Tianbo, and Liu Kongzhao would send over a batch of silver. The silver was not too much, ranging from tens of thousands to twenty thousand taels, but Zhu Cihong was really happy.

This state lasted until the 25th of the twelfth lunar month, when Jin Yiwei brought a shocking news.
