Da Ming started to ascend the throne

Chapter 586 Luzon System
Zhu Youjian already has a plan in mind for the future system in Luzon.

After listening to the suggestions of the generals, Zhu Youjian felt that there were many similarities with his ideas, so he decided to implement the original plan.

After all, Zhu Youjian is an emperor with golden fingers. After he has an idea in his mind, he will let the system sort out a material according to his thinking.

The first is the security issue in Luzon. If you want to manage Luzon well, the security environment must be the first priority.

From now on, we will strictly count Luzon's population and household registration, how many aborigines, how many Chinese, and how many foreign businessmen and diplomatic officials stationed in Luzon.

All personnel in Luzon must be fully registered.

After the census of population and household registration is completed, identity cards will be uniformly issued to the aborigines and Chinese who have lived in Luzon for more than three years.

And those Chinese and foreigners who do business must apply for a residence permit.

People who come to Luzon for business and business must go to the immigration office to register after entering the Luzon port.

Daming did not restrict them from coming and going, but they had to have ID cards, and those without any ID cards were not allowed to enter the island.

The Protectorate of the Ming Dynasty stationed in Luzon will arrange them on a small island next to them, and will not let them drift on the sea with nowhere to go.

No matter who, as long as they enter Luzon, they must abide by the laws and regulations of Luzon, otherwise they will be punished. The lighter ones will be sent to Ceylon for mining, and the serious ones will be beheaded according to law.

In order to prevent the aborigines from being instigated by others, it was decided to manage them.

Ten aboriginal households form a group, ten groups form a village, and there is a village head in each village.

Ten villages form a town, and the town has a mayor who is mainly responsible for managing them.

The village head needs to report to the mayor if he has something to do, and the mayor is under the direct jurisdiction of the local officials of the Duhufu.

In addition, each group of ten families must supervise and manage each other. If one family makes a major mistake or betrays Daming, the ten families will be punished.

If they want to be exonerated, they must report the situation to the village head as soon as possible, otherwise they will be punished with the same crime.

Under the jurisdiction of Daming, as long as you are honest and obedient, not only will no one dare to bully you, but they will also give you fields and orchards.

In addition to the tax burden paid by the annual harvest, the surplus income is enough for them to live on.

Those who have a labor force at home can also go to other places to work to earn money, and this part does not need to pay taxes.

The crops in Southeast Asia are harvested twice or three times a year. The yield is very high, and there is no starvation at all.

After dividing the fields to households, Daming will build farms on the remaining land such as orchards.

Now that Luzon has been included in the territory of Ming Dynasty, the imperial court will not levy their poll tax as unscrupulously as the colonies, causing the people to live in dire straits.

All taxes are linked to their crop output, and will not increase excess tax burden.

Luzon is rich in fishery resources, and the Duhu government will set up a fishing team to send the fish caught by the fishing team to Daming for sale.

In addition to workers' wages and other expenses, this part of the income is mainly handed over to the Duhufu.

The income from the farm is also handed over to the Duhufu. The Duhufu must plan carefully, not waste it at will, and strictly prohibit corruption.

Most of all income and tax burdens, excluding expenses and wages and military pay, were handed over to the Ming treasury.

The above is the management of the Luzon indigenous household registration and taxation system in production and life.

Businessmen in Luzon, whether they are Chinese or businessmen from other countries, as long as they operate in Luzon, they must pay commercial taxes to the Protectorate.

The commercial tax burden is tentatively set at [-]% of operating income, including manors operated in Luzon, which will be adjusted according to the actual situation in the future.

The Luzon branch of Daming Bank was established, mainly for dragon currency exchange and deposit loan business. This method and system is consistent with that of Daming.

Everyone in Luzon, whether they are indigenous Chinese or foreigners, must use Daming Dragon Coins, and after three months, other coins are out of circulation.

From the date of establishment of the bank, people and residents in Luzon should exchange Dragon coins as soon as possible.

For a large number of customers, the bank will charge a small fee, and the fee for ordinary people will be halved.

Recruit Chinese and natives who are loyal to Ming Dynasty, mainly Chinese, and set up the Luzon security force, which is mainly responsible for local security.

Build a cement factory in Luzon, and build defensive bunkers in coastal ports and city defenses as soon as possible.

The bunker must be able to defend against heavy artillery attacks. The underground of the bunker is connected to the city, and defensive artillery and shooting gun holes are installed.

In particular, the nearby bunkers must form a firepower network. If a bunker is attacked, the nearby bunkers can provide fire support, making the bunker an impenetrable fortress.

Not only Luzon is doing this, but the Nanhai Shengda Island and Huangming Island are also building such bunkers.

This was built by Zhu Youjian to prevent sneak attacks by the Dutch and Spaniards.

After the bunker is built, a small number of troops can completely turn all the islands in the South Seas into unsinkable Ming warships.

In the future, when neighboring countries of Ming Dynasty trade with the West, they must pass through Ming Dynasty, and any country can bypass Daming and trade with the West privately.

Otherwise, the Strait of Malacca will be their forbidden area, and ships from any country will not be able to pass through the Strait of Malacca.

It's not that Zhu Youjian is domineering. You must know that the main commodities traded between East Asia and the West are all produced in Ming Dynasty.

Such as raw silk, tea, cotton cloth, porcelain, and so on.

Now Malacca, Huangming Island, Ceylon, and Luzon are controlled by Ming Dynasty. Here, pepper, spices, sugar, etc. are the main sources of Western demand.

Could it be that Daming people are stupid and have a lot of money, and don't know how to earn it by themselves if they have a huge income?

After hearing the emperor's words, all the generals nodded frequently, and they all highly agreed with the emperor's decision.

Qi Jiguang and others rushed forward to congratulate:

"Your Majesty, if you build Luzon and the South China Sea Islands according to your decision, it will not only make this place impenetrable, but also drive the economic development of the entire region."

Zhu Youjian nodded:
"Your dear ones are free of courtesy"

"Thank you, Your Majesty, long live my emperor!"

Zhu Youjian took out the manuscript from the system and handed it over to Shi Lang.

At present, the officials of the Ming Dynasty stationed in Luzon are not in place yet, and Shi Lang is currently in charge of the overall situation.

"Shi Lang, I'll leave this to you. Order people to make a few more copies. You must strictly follow the above. If there is any problem, I will hold you accountable!"

Shi Lang hurried forward to take the manuscript from Zhu Youjian:

"Minister, Shi Lang complies with the order!"

After giving the manuscript to Shi Lang, Zhu Youjian delivered the decree:

"Come here, let the heads of the four major families in Luzon and several influential Chinese come to see us!"

"According to the purpose"

Immediately, a fan from Dongchang went to Liu's manor to deliver the decree.

It is said that it is a decree, but there is no imperial decree here, but it is actually Zhu Youjian's oral order.

After being treated with miraculous healing medicine rewarded by the emperor, Liu Fengxiang, the head of the Liu family, and the Zhang family believed that Shantang's injuries had almost recovered.

At that time, people did not have antibodies, and the effect of penicillin anti-inflammatory drugs in later generations is of course similar to that of magic drugs.

The two patriarchs, who have almost recovered from their injuries, invited the other two patriarchs today, and they are discussing how to make the business bigger.

Suddenly someone shouted:

"The imperial decree has arrived, and the heads of the four major families have received the decree!"
