At the gate of Tsinghua Garden, Emperor Wanli, who was wearing a winged crown, rarely took off his military uniform and armor, dressed in a bright and yellow twelve-chapter robe, and stuck his hands on the jade belt around his waist, and looked at the open space at the entrance of Xuanhe's private garden where his grandfather had repaired Xuanhe with satisfaction.

The intricately carved stone tiger-headed horse-tied stakes lined up on the left and right sides of the gate, and the high-headed horses of the Imperial Forest Army wearing armor were tied, and the Guards Military Academy carrying the long knives and bird guns of the Imperial Forest on their shoulders blocked the intersection to open the guard, and one after another horse-drawn carriages full of crates were parked in the open space in the middle.

Nowadays, crates are used to ship goods in China, mainly from Beiyang, because there are too many prefabricated wooden planks brought back from the New World.

The Oriental Military Government is convenient for loading and transporting, and the timber is loaded with square boards, different specifications and different purposes, and a considerable part of the timber that does not grow is directly made into prefabricated wooden boxes for mortise and tenon and nailing, and the Beiyang Military Government can only use it in this way.

He was very happy yesterday, very happy today, and it is foreseeable that he will be very happy tomorrow, because just a few days ago, the abbots of the imperial family in the southwest temple last year for the first time transported the special products, field rent, interest, and taxes to Beiyang by sea, and then sent them to Beijing by land.

These abbots were not the people who followed Tianshi to the west to fight, but the emperor invested money in the inner treasury and handed it over to Master Tianshi to select people, and set up temples in Burma and other places in the southwest and Siam domains.

Let's put it this way, Emperor Wanli invested in 74 temples in batches in the name of 'Yijun' to raise funds, and invested in nine more in the name of Empress Dowager Li to let Feng Bao, the governor of Dongchang in his later years, have a good place to recite scriptures, a total of 85 temples.

This is not the same as the temple established by the 10,000-character army, the emperor is very clear, those temples are Ming's, and these temples are his.

What the emperor can't control in the temples overseas of the Ming Dynasty, the military government has the final say, but his temple has strict regulations.

In addition to the obvious characteristics of the temple property more than the domestic one, and the lending is larger than the domestic one, there is also the temple head swords, swords, halberds, axes, hooks, forks, birds, rockets, mines, artillery.

At the beginning of the investment in them, each abbot was accompanied by one or two brocade guards, and a hundred households from Guangdong, Guangxi, and Fujian, which were the best armed in the traditional guards, led the flag army with ordnance, grain and grass.

In the past, these people changed the administrative divisions for others.

It may be that after the temple uses these core banners to gather the Buddhists, there are more people in one temple than in one city, and the temple will naturally become a local center.

The emperor has been standing at the gate of Qinghua Garden for a day in various postures.

He stood like this when he got up in the morning, and when he was tired of standing, he sat on the stone steps, and when his buttocks were cold, he asked people to move a chair for him, and then he sat down and his legs were numb, so he stood up again, and even ate lunch outside the door...... Anyway, this private garden is a few miles away from the nearest official avenue, and no one has seen the emperor's unorthodox behavior.

Those abbots are really capable, since yesterday to see the Beijing goods they handed over to Beiyang, the emperor was so happy that he couldn't sleep well in the Qianqing Palace at night, and came to watch with panda eyes early in the morning, with a smirk on his face from time to time.

The abbot with the worst professional ability raised two hundred and twenty taels of gold and three thousand seven hundred taels of silver in four months; The two best temples were in the barren land near the Baojing of Mengmi Xuanwei Si, and handed over 34,000 taels and 27,000 taels of silver to the emperor respectively.

It's not that Meng Mi Xuanwei Si is rich, but their temple produces jade, and even the Tusi of Meng Mi Xuanwei Si himself didn't know that they produced jade, and it was discovered by these great monks.

And these two abbots were smart enough, they brought jade on the ship, and along the way Guangdong, Fujian, Zhejiang, and Nanzhi all stopped and sold, and finally sent silver to the emperor.

Not to mention anything else, even the nine temples of Empress Dowager Li earned her more than 30,000 taels of silver.

Wan Li Ye accidentally found a livelihood with an annual income of nearly 900,000 taels, can he not be happy.

What's more, he only has more than 100 temples, and he has this income, how much should it be when there were hundreds or even thousands of temples for monks that day?

"I've found the ship."

The emperor felt that he had found the key to solving the problem, not to mention the gold and silver directly collected by these temples, and transported back to the jade, gems and other specialties sold in the country, these things ordinary people may not buy much, and the final flow is in the hands of high-ranking officials and nobles, wealthy businessmen.

Therefore, he crossed his waist and was extremely proud, watching the soldiers unload the carriages and push the carts into the inner warehouse of the newly built Tsinghua Garden, who could still think of the hemorrhoids on Zhang Ge's old buttocks?

Master Wanli said to Xu Guangqi, who was standing aside, with a look of contempt: "This is the ship, Jing Haibo's reply has already been found before I have seen it." ”

"I want to spend the money I earned from the rich merchants and magnates on the poorest people in the empire, they don't need much, I can not give much, but one tael per person per year can benefit millions of poor people."

The emperor turned his head, raised his hand and smiled, and the swollen silkworms with swollen eyes that had not slept well all night were crowded together, and added: "There are also the Wanli Steel Foundry in Baoding Mansion and the Wanli Coal Plant in Shanxi, they are still small, but they can also help millions of people in the future." ”

"Your Majesty's generosity and fraternity are indeed a blessing to the world."

Xu Guangqi bowed his head and bowed his hands, the emperor said that the truth is excellent, but obviously there is no law, where is the emperor directly sending money to the people, this is probably not a good way.

Then he heard the emperor's broken thoughts: "The teacher's hemorrhoids came well, thanks to the teacher's bed rest, the imperial court can unanimously pass the imperial family's proposal to set up the Wanli Coal Plant in Shanxi, and the teacher is indispensable." ”

"Now that everything is done, Beiyang's doctor Chen Shigong came at the right time, and when he sent the things, he asked him to go to the teacher to see the doctor."

For the emperor, this is a good thing to get together, Qi Jiguang won two battles outside the Saiwai after the beginning of the spring, and Zhang Juzheng, the first assistant of the cabinet, was so angry that he was not allowed to treat his illness and couldn't sit still, Zhang Siwei was against the royal family's monopoly on coal mines, but he was scolded by the emperor and didn't have the old man to help him, and the courtiers were also scared by this play, and no one dared to sing again.

He did everything he should do and wanted to do, and the all-powerful and all-knowing Emperor Wanli felt that Zhang Gelao's hemorrhoids could be cured.

At this moment, Chen Shigong, who was surrounded by apprentices, was late, his face was full of excitement about riding the Daqinglong steam locomotive on the road, Wanli didn't say anything polite to him, and directly opened his hand to ask for Chen Mu's reply, and couldn't wait to walk towards the garden and read it.

"Everything about the future of the empire is education?"
