I became a mysterious person in textbooks after being pushed by the emperors

Chapter 104 Chongzhen got rich
One by one, the vassal kings are taking action, whether they are the vassal kings who have been abandoned or the vassal kings who have ambitions. At this moment, in the entire world, there are no poor people who can be called vassal kings.

The eldest son of the emperors of all dynasties was crowned prince and succeeded to the throne; all other sons were crowned princes.

The eldest son of the crown prince is granted the title of grandson, and the other sons are granted the title of county princes. After the crown prince ascends the throne, all county princes are promoted to princes.

The prince's eldest son is granted the title of Crown Prince, and his eldest grandson is granted the title of Crown Prince and succeeds to the throne; the remaining sons are granted the title of county prince.

In other words, the lowest level of the vassal king is the county king.

The prince of the county: six thousand shi of rice per year, 25 guan of banknotes, ten pieces of brocade, fifty pieces of silk, 500 pieces of Luo, one hundred pieces each of silk and winter and summer cloth, [-] taels of cotton, and fifty ounces of salt. Three hundred kilograms of tea, ten pieces of fodder for horses per month, women who have been granted titles and married, one thousand shi of rice per year, and one thousand four hundred guan of banknotes.

This is only the income given by the court. In fact, the income the county prince can obtain is greater than imagined.

This is still a county prince, and the prince is undoubtedly higher.

In its original trajectory, such a huge wealth could only lie in the treasury and eat ashes. In the end, it was either given to Li Zicheng, Zhang Xianzhong and other bandits, or eventually returned to the Manchus.

But at this moment, they had a new choice.

That is Zhu Youjian.

When the imperial edict is announced to the world.

Over the next half year, a large amount of wealth from the vassal kings began to pour into the Ming Dynasty Kyoto.

Transported by Jin Yiwei, cartloads of gold and silver arrived one after another.

Zhu Youjian, who was in the palace, had to fall into shock again and again.

"Your Majesty, King Fu has paid tribute of 600 million taels, including 10 taels of gold, 370 million taels of silver, and copper coins!"

"The King of Shu paid a tribute of 700 million taels, including more than 230 taels of gold, [-] million taels of silver, and copper coins."

In the Hall of Supreme Harmony, Zhu Youjian listened to the eunuch's report. Looking at the boxes of gold and silver, he felt his breathing becoming heavier.

Money, unimaginable amounts of money.

Zhu Youjian, who was extremely short of money, almost couldn't help but jump.

"Your Majesty, the gold and silver tributes from the vassal kings from all over the country have been tallied, and the total is three thousand two hundred and seventy twenty-five thousand six hundred and thirty one tael."

Wang Chengen also felt that his breathing was heavy at this moment.

Such a huge wealth is almost comparable to the income of the Ming Dynasty's treasury in 15 years.

Even though he was the eunuch of Si Li Bingbi, he had never seen such a huge income.

"Okay, hahaha!"

"Sir is indeed a great talent that even my grandfather praised!"

Zhu Youjian couldn't help but stood up excitedly, his eyes flickering. He was really throbbing at this moment.

3000 taels.

Such a value is extremely huge even for Zhu Youjian, and it is enough for him to do a lot of things.

As the emperor, as the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Youjian felt that he might be the poorest. The money in the treasury was almost exhausted, and he had to face a huge deficit in the treasury every year.

He can only withdraw the east wall to make up for the west wall.

But even if he doesn't understand economics, Zhu Youjian also knows that if this continues, the entire Ming Dynasty will inevitably collapse.

However to no avail.

Even if he increases taxes year by year, the tax revenue received is getting smaller and smaller, which is simply unable to make up for such a huge deficit.

Let alone doing anything else.

Jiang Chen's words made him understand that the entire Ming Dynasty would eventually die in his hands.But now, with the 3000 million taels in hand, Zhu Youjian suddenly felt confident again.

With this amount of money, not to mention other things, it is absolutely impossible for the Ming Dynasty to fall to him. He may even become the next leader of the Ming Dynasty center. It does not seem impossible to even rival Emperor Guangwu of Han Dynasty.

Of course, this excitement only lasted for a moment, and was quickly suppressed by Zhu Youjian.

Zhu Youjian had watched all the scenes in the previous chat group.

Naturally, he knew Jiang Chen's evaluation of him.

That's not very good.

Although as an emperor, it is difficult to bear being scolded by others almost pointing at your nose.

But thinking about becoming the grandfather and the changes in the Ming Dynasty where Emperor Shizong was, Zhu Youjian still suppressed it forcibly, and his consciousness sank into his mind again.

"@陈, sir, I have followed your plan, sealed the vassal king overseas, and obtained 3000 million taels. What should I do next to save the Ming Dynasty?"

Entering the group chat, Zhu Youjian directly addressed Jiang Chen.

"Good guy, His Majesty Yongle, are you so rich in the Ming Dynasty? The vassal king can actually pay tribute of 3000 million taels? @明成尊 Zhu Di?"

As soon as the text was sent out, the late Song Dynasty Emperor Zhao Bing couldn't help but exclaimed.

Even though the Song Dynasty has made great progress at this moment, due to its relatively poor foundation, not to mention the Yongle time and space, even the rising star Jiajing time and space is far behind.

3000 million taels is not a small value for Zhao Bing.

He didn't expect that Zhu Youjian could collect 3000 million taels by following Jiang Chen's method.

On the other side, looking at Ming Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang who was speaking, Ming Chengzu Zhu Di couldn't help but darken his face.

To be honest, they were still a little hesitant about Jiang Chen's words.

But at this moment, Zhu Youjian's words undoubtedly confirmed everything Jiang Chen said.

After all, according to Jiang Chen's method, it was impossible for these vassal kings to take out all their property. One-third of the money they could take out would be burning incense, or even one-tenth.

But even so, the money provided by these feudal kings was as high as 3000 million taels.

So how many 3000 million taels are left by these feudal kings?

You can even think about it with your toes.

In particular, Ming Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang's face was a little ugly.

Even though he had some mental expectations in Jiang Chen's previous words, he didn't expect it to reach this level.

Zhu Di, the founder of the Ming Dynasty, didn't look much better either.

The vassal kings possess such huge wealth, one can imagine the situation of the entire Ming Dynasty.

As the emperor of Ming Dynasty, Zhu Di also found it difficult to accept.

As for Ming Shizong Zhu Houcong, he didn't pay too much attention.

In fact, Zhu Houcong knew exactly what was going on with the vassal king, even if Jiang Chen didn't say it and Zhu Youjian didn't verify it.

As mentioned before, the problem of the feudal king was already a problem before.

In the 41st year of Jiajing's reign, Lin Run, the imperial censor, went to Shu Shizong and said that it was appropriate to order the ministers Ke Dao to gather together to discuss the matter at court, and to inform the kings that they had to adapt to the situation because of the disadvantages of their power.The accounting quota of the Ministry of Household Affairs was ordered to be based on ten years, and the total number of exemptions, retentions, and additional titles from the royal palace were calculated based on ten years.Together, we will formulate good strategies for dealing with the future, break our own hearts, and stick to the rules that will never change for generations to come. "

Zhu Houcong even wanted to order the reduction of the clan several times, but unfortunately the obstacles encountered by the action were too great and he was unable to continue.

Historically, it was not until the 44th year of Jiajing that the Zonghui Regulations were enacted.
