Comprehensive martial arts: Summon the thunder and lightning general, I will rule the world

"Because the fiscal growth is a bit fast, we have invested a lot in the second half of the year, not only for post-war recovery. We also have a lot of facilities under construction in the land that originally belonged to the Ming Dynasty. Many things were done by corvees in the past. , Now that the state treasury has money, we also spend money to hire local people to do it. The money is not much, but the people are also happy." Zhang Juzheng said proudly.

Nowadays, the Ming Dynasty has abolished corvée on a large scale, and the lives of ordinary people are also the easiest.

As the chief minister of the Ming Dynasty, Zhang Juzheng was naturally happy about this matter.

Let me ask, is there any country in the entire Zongwu Continent that can compare with Ming Dynasty in this regard?
If anyone dares to call their Emperor a tyrant in the future, let them see how powerful the people are!
Which family's people do not have to do corvee work?
It costs money to hire people. Even for ordinary people, a day's work can almost ensure that five people have enough food for a day. This is the most important thing.

"Yes!" Regarding this, Zhu Houzhao also showed a confident look on his face, which is something to be proud of.

It's a bit sad to think about the future social workers who work hard all day and end up with less than enough money to pay for two takeaways and rent.

The work here is a bit tiring, but at least it can feed a family of five. If there are more people working, the whole family can live a good life.

This has also led to many people now giving up farming and wanting to work to make money. The concept of migrant workers has also taken shape.

As for whether this will stop people from farming in Ming Dynasty? This is impossible. For now, Ming Dynasty still has quite a lot of food.

The genes in their bones also make them unable to let go of farming.

Moreover, once there is a shortage of food, the price of food will naturally increase, and people will naturally grow food.

At worst, we can just develop a large-scale farm economy. Anyway, the steam engine has been produced. Then we will see if the omnipotent Lu Miaozi and Zhu Ting can produce all cultivators and harvesters.

By the way, there were also people from the Mo family. A trace of ambition flashed in Zhu Houzhao's eyes.

"Twenty million yuan is allocated as a performance bonus for officials!" After thinking about it, Zhu Houzhao also said: "At this rate of development, if there is no war this year, this year's tax revenue is likely to exceed 280 million yuan. Ten million.

Even reaching 300 million!
However, this year, it should be impossible for Kublai Khan and Zhao Kuangyin to continue to let us sit back and watch the fight between tigers and tigers.

They will fight for another three months at most. After three months, the scale of the war will also decrease, or our Ming Dynasty will also be involved. "

"Are we going to join the war too?" Zhang Juzheng knew that Zhu Houzhao now belonged to the Gonghuo side. Otherwise, Zhao Kuangyin would not dare to fight Kublai Khan.

"There are already a lot of casualties. Since the war between Zhao Kuangyin and Kublai Khan, the casualties between the two sides have exceeded 200,000!" Zhu Houzhao nodded slightly and said: For any country, a sudden loss of 200,000 The army is very exhausted.

Moreover, these are still elite.

They are also human lives. If the two countries continue to fight like this, when Ming faces them in the future, it can just push them forward.

Zhao Kuangyin knew this, and so did Kublai Khan!
So if Zhao Kuangyin wants to contact us to attack Dayuan in the future, we will also need to attack Dayuan together.

Kublai Khan is almost dead!"

Speaking of this, a cold light flashed in Zhu Houzhao's eyes. Zhu Houzhao really didn't have the slightest fondness for Kublai Khan now. Well, although there are some things, Zhu Houzhao actually does them himself.

For example, the number of people killed because of Zhu Houzhao in recent years has exceeded one million, or even reached several million. Zhu Houzhao believes that it is possible for tens of millions of people to die in a few years.

But Zhu Houzhao was unhappy with Kublai Khan, and he was almost dead!
"Is there no way to avoid it?" Zhang Juzheng's heart tightened when he heard that there was going to be another war.

The Ming Dynasty had finally been stable for half a year, and it looked like it was about to go to war.

If this fight continues, Ming's finances...

Uh, okay, Ming Dynasty's finances are still able to bear the burden, and the army has rested for half a year, and it is almost rested.

Moreover, Zhu Houzhao is not resorting to militarism. The current size of the army is also a healthy number.

Zhang Juzheng even feels that the current number of troops can be further expanded, such as adding another million or something.

Of course, one million is definitely impossible. If it were really expanded to one million, Zhao Minyin and Kublai Khan would probably stop fighting at this time and attack them directly.

"Some things cannot be avoided, but I am also prepared!" Zhu Houzhao waved his hand and said: "Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and Huang Zhong were all at the junction of the earliest Ming Dynasty and Song Dynasty. Wu Qi and Yu Jin were in charge of the two Liao Dynasties. We are now ready.

Even if two countries cooperate and start a war against our Ming Dynasty, our Ming Dynasty still has the power to fight, and even the confidence to fight back directly. "

"Yes!" Zhu Houzhao said so, what else did Zhang Juzheng say?
Moreover, Zhu Houzhao was indeed very generous this time, offering high performance bonuses.

I believe those civil servants can still accept it!
Life in Ming Dynasty is getting better and better!
After the meeting ended, Zhu Houzhao said to Ji Yanran next to him: "Please help me inform Kong Ming and the others, so that things about dragons will gradually start to spread in Qin and Han Dynasties."

"Isn't it inappropriate at this time?" Ji Yanran's eyes flickered and she asked quickly.

"Isn't Yingzheng planning to attack your side and truly incorporate Baiyue into his territory? It's time to have some fun for him." Zhu Houzhao shook his head slightly and said.

"They probably just want to scare us!" Ji Yanran quickly explained.

Baiyue was destroyed a long time ago, but because there are too many hills and mountains, the Qin State, including the Chu State that destroyed Baiyue before, is not very interested in the land of Baiyue. Now it is not a land of plenty. What.

But a real barren land!
For the Qin State, bringing Baiyue under its management was not worth the gain.

Unless they can kill all the Baiyue people, Qin cannot do this!
If they hide in the mountains, Da Qin's army won't be able to do anything to them. Is it possible that they have to stay on the mountain road all the time?
If it could be done that easily, cholera wouldn't have been around for so long.

Of course, Bai Qi wants to set fire to the mountain directly. If they don't come out, wouldn't it be better to just burn them all to death? (End of this chapter)
