Zhu Cihong turned to Gu Wei of the Ministry of Military Justice and said: "After the spring ploughing, you start to inspect all parts of Fengyang Mansion, if any yamen dares to collect taxes privately, they will all be arrested, no matter who he is, who is in the background, this palace will definitely kill him to the end!" ”

His voice was stern, so that everyone present did not dare to come out, especially Zhu Dadian, the governor of Caoyun, who was sweating profusely on his forehead, and it seemed that in the future, he would strictly order all departments of Caoyun Yamen and Fengyang's land not to collect taxes.

Gu Wei of the Ministry of Military Justice stood up solemnly and gave his hand to the order, this person who could even execute his own brother according to military regulations, no one believed that he would bend the law for personal gain.

Zhu Dadian reminded: "Your Highness, should the official's salary be improved?" ”

Zhu Cihong shook his head and said, "Not for the time being!" ”

The income of Ming officials is not high, and they also need to be promoted, but not now, Zhu Cihong thinks, no matter how hard you live, can you have the suffering of the people? Even if you can't cure it under the rule, you still want to add money, it's good that this palace didn't cut off your head, and if you want a high salary, everything will wait for the results!

Beginning to divide the land according to each one, Zhu Cihong established the military tun department, and appointed Yang Tinglin as the head of the military tun department, with full responsibility for the tuntian affairs of Fengyang Mansion.

At present, with the number of military fields of the Eight Guards, plus the seizure of some gentry's fields, Zhu Cihong currently has nearly 10 million mu of land in his hands to distribute.

Zhu Cihong ordered the land to be divided into upper, middle and lower grades according to the quality of the soil, and the superior land near the river was given priority, and the superior land was divided into medium land after the division was completed, and the lower barren land could be slowly reclaimed.

According to the fifty acres of land of a newly recruited sergeant, tens of thousands of tuntian households can be recruited just for the best good land, and tens of thousands of tuntian soldiers can be produced by a tuntian household.

It is not difficult to reclaim wasteland, a young and strong laborer can reclaim more than one acre of wasteland a day, Zhu Cihong is not lacking labor now, as long as there is food to eat, many people are willing to work willingly, not to mention that he still has 6,000 thieves captive in his hands, these people need to have a good labor reform.

Zhu Dadian saw that he didn't have anything to do, he felt a little lost in his heart, he wanted to follow the crown prince, but he didn't expect to be turned away, this is really embarrassing.........

Just when Zhu Dadian was a little embarrassed, Zhu Cihong looked at him and said, "Zhu Dadian, this palace wants to give you a task, I don't know if you are interested?" ”

When Zhu Dadian saw that the opportunity had come, he immediately bowed and said, "The minister is willing to die for His Highness!" ”

When do you wait without faithfulness? If you hesitate and miss the opportunity at hand, you probably won't even be able to do it to the Governor of Caoyun in the future.

Zhu Cihong nodded with satisfaction and said, "This palace wants you to conduct an inventory of the land in the surrounding provinces such as Luzhou Mansion, Anqing Mansion, Taiping Mansion, Chuzhou Mansion, Huizhou Mansion, etc., I wonder if you can do it this time?" ”

Zhu Dadian was a little stunned for a while, and he fucking checked the land? Are you still going to kill people? Clear the provinces around Fengyang Mansion?

Zhu Dadian stubbornly said: "The ministers should do their best to check the land situation of each province as soon as possible!" ”

Zhu Cihong said with a smile: "Zhu Qing doesn't have to worry, cleaning up these mansions will not make Yingtian's gang jump, you just do it, the palace will personally inspect the mansions in a while and cheer for you!" ”

When Zhu Dadian heard him say this, his heart suddenly relaxed a lot, and he hurriedly thanked him again.

Judging from Zhu Cihong's attitude towards executing criminal officials and rebellious troops, Zhu Dadian knew that although the crown prince was approachable in appearance, his methods were extremely sophisticated and ruthless, and he had a strong desire to control.

Zhu Dadian, as a veteran of officialdom for many years, saw many hidden methods of the crown prince just from the restructuring of the Yongwei Battalion.

He knew very well that going against this young master would never end well, and even a royal slave like the eunuch who would kill him if he said he would kill him, did he still expect him to be merciful to the enemy?

After all, eunuchs represent the imperial power to a certain extent, and dealing with eunuchs is equivalent to weakening the imperial power in disguise, which is why the eunuchs and eunuchs in various places are arrogant but no one dares to provoke them.

After the discussion, Zhu Cihong issued another decree that all the land in Fengyang Mansion that was not planted after spring ploughing would be confiscated!

Regardless of landlords and civilians, more than seventy percent of the land at home must be planted for food, whether it is grain, vegetables, or sweet potatoes, as long as it is abandoned there, the government will take it back and confiscate it! Those who want to use it for commercial purposes must apply to the government, and only after obtaining the qualification can they allow the land under their name to be used for other purposes.

The development of commerce has made the people who originally farmed the land go to the city to work and make money, resulting in more and more abandoned land, and the grain output is not as good as year by year.

Jiangnan, the land of fish and rice in history, not only did not become the help of the Ming Dynasty at the end of the Ming Dynasty, but needed to be imported from Huguang and Guangdong due to lack of food.

Zhu Cihong wanted to develop commerce and levy commercial taxes, but not now, if the agricultural problem is not solved, there is no need to think about the commercial problem.

The agricultural revolution and the commercial revolution are the prerequisites of the industrial revolution, and only when agriculture develops to a certain extent can society develop commerce, and agricultural development can promote commodity exchange, and only then will society have surplus labor to engage in the development of the small commodity economy.

When the demand for commodities in society exceeds that of small commodities and the economy cannot buy enough, it is inevitable to reform the mode of production, and the direction of reform is the use of large-scale production and large machinery, so that industrial production appears.

The relationship between these three is gradual, and if you want to develop by leaps and bounds, it will only help the seedlings to grow, and the future troubles will be endless!

Zhu Cihong said to Yang Tinglin: "Yang Qing, this time is going to work hard for you, if there is any difficulty, just talk to the palace, whether it is power or money, the palace can let you do it to the greatest extent, but you must be clear that the recruitment of troops in Tuntian is related to the major politics of the country, the acquisition of land, the expression of the people's strength, and the food of the soldiers, but also determines whether we can completely quell the rebellion of the Central Plains, please do your best!" ”

Yang Tinglin said seriously: "The important things that His Highness has explained, the minister will do his best to complete!" ”

Yang Tinglin said again: "Your Highness, originally there were dozens of prisoners of the national eunuch under the minister, but now they have been assigned to serve as officials in various places, and the ministers are all some big and rough generals, and the manpower is very tight......

Zhu Cihong nodded and expressed his understanding, after all, the entire Fengyang Mansion was almost cut down by him, and the personnel were indeed a little nervous.

He pondered for a moment and said, "Pass on the decree of the palace, let Nanjing Guozi Supervisor transfer a thousand prisoners to Fengyang Mansion, and give priority to the eunuchs and tribute eunuchs, and don't send the eunuchs here!" ”

The so-called eunuch is to raise people to be prisoners, and tribute supervisors are to be supervised by Xiucai, also called tribute students, once Xiucai becomes a tribute student, he is no longer disciplined by local Confucianism, commonly known as tribute.

The shadow prison is a prisoner who became a prisoner by virtue of his father's official position, and there are also regular prisoners who donate money and corn as a prisoner.

What does Zhu Cihong want them to do with these national eunuchs who rely on nepotism and spend money to enter? Can you understand the suffering of the people? Become an official and do things for the people?

Maybe a few can, but so what? Gold will always shine, as long as you have the ability, there will be opportunities to come out in the future.
