Be the Emperor from Today / the Young Emperor of the Ming Dynasty

When the imperial court was operating water transport, the annual tax was turned over to the state treasury at [-] million taels of silver.

However, after the water transportation and release rights, the merchant ships that could not obtain the water transportation right can enter the water transportation, which leads to a sudden increase in the water transportation volume...

The Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal suddenly became prosperous, and many merchants no longer walked, but changed to water transportation.

Taxes are collected according to the goods of merchant ships, and the tax on water transportation has reached a huge amount of [-] taels of silver!

In the past, the tax for one year of water transportation was only [-] taels of silver, but now, the tax for one month of water transportation has exceeded one million taels of silver.

For a long time, Gao Gong and Zhang Juzheng believed that business activities were unprofitable, because business could not produce, and without production, there would be no rice...

But looking at it now, the profits of businessmen are actually huge profits.

Gao Gong and Zhang Ju face each other.

They saw flames from each other's eyes respectively!

Commercial tax must be reformed, and water transportation is only one of the business operation modes. The success of water transportation reform has made Gao Gong and Zhang Juzheng fully realize that commercial reform is imperative.

From now on, the Ming Empire will completely reform the national policy of emphasizing agriculture and suppressing commerce.

The combination of business and farmers is the strategy for building a country!

With money, everything is easy to do!

……

Morning the next day.

Zhang Juzheng was the first to come out, and he told Lanxess, the answer to the reform of water transportation, and the government and the opposition were shaken.

In three months, Cao Operation received [-] million taels of silver, then the annual revenue was [-] million taels of silver!

terror!

This is a scary number!

Last year, the tax revenue was only [-] million taels of silver. Now, the income from water transportation alone has reached [-] million taels.

This time, the civil and military officials above the court began to re-examine the merchants.

It turned out that the profits of businessmen were so high!

Start working on the works of the emperor today Chapter 40: Strong Ships and Sharp Guns!The Daming Navy is back to its glory!

A vigorous commercial revolution started from the courtroom.

Zhu Yijun sat on the dragon chair and listened to the courtiers' quarrel.

Although Gao Gong and Zhang Ju are the first and second assistants of the cabinet, it is not that no one dares to confront them in the court.

Some veteran and prudent ministers strongly oppose the lifting of the ban on commerce. In their view, emphasizing agriculture and suppressing commerce is a rule that has been passed down for thousands of years. How can it be changed?

They believe that agriculture is the foundation of a country and that commerce cannot be placed above agriculture, because if everyone becomes a businessman, who will farm the land, and if no one farms the land, where will the rations for millions of people come from?

The reformers and the old-fashioned were so arguing in the courtroom that they almost got into a fight with hair and beards.

Zhu Yijun looked at the two groups of people above the court, the smell of gunpowder was full, and he sighed in his heart.

I knew this was going to happen for a long time, and it looks like I'm starting to call the shots.

Zhu Yijun cleared his throat, and the eunuch next to him suddenly shouted loudly, "Would you be yelling in the courtroom, what a formality!"

The eunuch sharply penetrated the court, and all the ministers closed the zuiba.

"My will has been decided, and the business reform will be handled in accordance with the cabinet's plan, and no one can obstruct it!"

Zhu Yijun's voice was like the sound of gold and stone. Those conservative ministers closed the zuiba. Now that the emperor has spoken, all they can do is obey.

……

After Zhu Yijun's message was conveyed, the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of Personnel, and the Ministry of Household began to get busy.

The most important thing is to revise taxes. Since business is to be improved, business taxes and laws must be improved.

Above the hall, the system prompt sounded.

[Ding dong, the Daming Navy's strong ships and cannons!The Daming Navy is back to its glory! , get a new artillery blueprint - the cannon. 】

[Compared with traditional artillery, the cannon has a more compact barrel, the range is twice that of the Flang machine artillery, and the power is greater. 】

Above the court, officials no longer write letters, and His Majesty has decided on business reform, so they can only bite the bullet and go ahead, and it is not too late to turn back when they encounter the southern wall.

The commercialization reform of the Daming Empire has begun, and Zhu Yijun is quietly waiting for the silver to arrive, waiting for the navy of the Daming Empire to revive its glory!

At present, European countries have already traveled the world with strong ships and cannons, and Zhu Yijun also wants to go in.

However, without a strong navy, the Ming Empire could only be bound outside the ocean.

……

After Zhu Yijun went to court, in the Qianqing Palace, he spread out the rice paper, held a pen and paper, and began to sketch out the design of the cannon.

Of course, the design drawings drawn by Zhu Yijun are not standard, but this does not hinder the design data of the cannon.

As long as the data is correct and the painting is not rigorous enough, there are also craftsmen who make corrections.

"Send order, this secret decree is handed over to Tanggu Qi Jiguang."
