Reborn Regent of Ming Dynasty

If there is a need, the government can print a little money.Grain-grain-net-first-post www>

This is the simple idea of ​​small peasants, who have no economic awareness at all. The Daming treasure yarn has no reserve funds, and it has become a piece of waste paper. After decades of delivery in kind, it will prove that changes must be made, otherwise the court will not be able to maintain it. They simply cannot afford to support officials and the army.

As for the stupidity of food harvested in a certain place being ordered to be sent to a certain guard, it became even more unworkable later.

Although Ming Taizu's system is really not clever, later generations have no way to completely overthrow it. The agricultural tax is the same, and the commercial tax is the same. They can only be repaired on the original basis, which is of no avail.

During the reign of Chongzhen, any act of raising taxes was a crime, and it was a heinous crime that could not be punished.It is undeniable that people like Yang Sichang have many shortcomings, but the main reason for his bad reputation is that he supports Chongzhen's tax increase. [

This alone is enough to be scolded by those officials and gentry who are big landlords, big businessmen, and colluded with businessmen to make a fortune.

The land tax cannot be collected, let alone the commercial tax.The tea tax was several 10 taels a year a few decades ago, but it was only 2 taels a year during the reign of Chongzhen. This amount of money is not enough to support a battalion of soldiers!

Zhang Shouren has gradually learned a lot about the emperor's embarrassment and sorrow through the residence newspaper in the past few months.

The mansion newspaper is actually the newspaper of this era, the promotion and demotion of officials, the new trends and policies of the court, and the contents of the emperor summoning ministers to discuss politics, etc. Even the mansion newspapers of different provinces have different emphasis, and sometimes they will publish some lace news A class of things.

Of course, military news will always be the focus of the Di Bao.

When Zhang Shouren was drinking tea and reading the mansion newspaper, his frequent movements were shaking his head and sighing.

With such a huge empire, various systems are not working well, coupled with tragic natural disasters, and corruption inside and outside the customs, it is really difficult to see any good news in the mansion newspaper.

Bandits, captives from the east, ups and downs on both sides, the court's taxes are insufficient, the operation is not working, and the hearts of the people are gradually losing, the gentry and the common people are gradually eccentric, everyone feels that the time for a big change in 300 years has come, but they don't know The imperial court will perish in the hands of some force.

Being an emperor is not easy, and the most important thing is that there is no money.

It is said that he is the real dragon emperor, but the emperor also has to give him hair money. Without money, no matter how loyal he is, he will be unfaithful, and no matter how righteous he is.

Regarding the issue of wages, there have been several large-scale military riots in the past few years.The biggest one was the mutiny caused by the soldiers in western Liao, which led to the mutiny of the three armies, and the governor Bi Zisu hanged himself.

Compared with Chongzhen, who was in a state of desperation every day and was poor enough to be a trouser, Zhang Shouren's life was like a man in heaven.Chongzhen pawned the bronze censer and the bronze cranes of the Qianqing Palace for silver, but Zhang Shouren has a great source of wealth, making money every day, and has a lot of opportunities to further expand the source of wealth. A private person can become rich against the enemy, or even To earn more money than the emperor's small treasury, this is probably the tragedy of a dynasty!

But Chongzhen's affairs let him have a headache by himself. Under such a rising sun, under the watchful eyes of the surrounding merchants and townspeople, all Zhang Shouren has to do is to hold his head higher and his chest higher, And the relatives under his command are going to leave even more high-spirited, mighty and majestic!
