Isn't it just to be exempted? Don't you just want to get rid of the debts of the past years?

Yes! No problem! I'm all gone!

Not only did the previous arrears be exempted, but even Chongzhen's six years and Chongzhen's seven years of endowment were exempted! Don't!

In the sixth year of Chongzhen, except for the commercial tax and mining tax, which has nothing to do with the people, the rest of the people are exempted from poll tax or something, I don't want it!

But I didn't have to take it, and you bastards don't want to get a penny into your pocket.

Since the Ming Dynasty sent people to read out the will, if anyone dares to risk the disapproval of the world to go to the people to collect some messy silver and put it in their pockets, it is against me, and they are self-isolating themselves from the Ming Dynasty and the people.

When the time comes, we will see if your means of making money are higher, or whether the factory guards and the people are more powerful.

If the means of making money are clever enough, and you have not been reported by the people to make money from the people, nor have you been discovered by the factory guards and reported it, it can only show that you are awesome enough, your IQ is high enough, and the money you make is also your ability.

But once a person complains, or is found by the factory guard and reported it, if he doesn't say anything, he will directly ask the nine clans to be implicated!

Emperor Chongzhen also took out the spirit of Brother Pingtou again, since you don't want me to be happy, I won't make you happy!

You think that's the end of it?

If it's that simple, then I still be the emperor's dry yarn? The fun is still to come!

Jin Yiwei and Dongchang all went out to see if these bastard officials reached out into the food for disaster relief, and also to see if these bastards had put the money into their pockets after I was exempted from paying taxes.

As long as they reach out to the relief food, one counts as one, and all of them will become my own, and then buy food for disaster relief!

Isn't it just shameless, isn't it just playing with flowers, see who has played whom!

When Xu Dingchen, the governor of Shanxi, received that Emperor Chongzhen not only exempted the arrears accumulated over the years, but even exempted the taxes of Chongzhen for six years and seven years of Chongzhen, and only retained the commercial tax, he knew that something was wrong.

This kind of behavior of exempting arrears and exempting taxes for this year and next year looks like His Majesty the Emperor is angry.

And this anger is caused by himself, no matter how clean he is, his heart is always very empty.

According to the character of the master in the Forbidden City, he lost so much silver, and he must make up for it from somewhere else.

And there are actually only a few ways for the emperor to make up for his losses - either from the vassal king, from the officials, or from the taxes.

And this has just been exempted from taxes, isn't it a slap in the face of the emperor to add taxes and taxes? Especially in front of it, there is an edict of never giving it there.

The vassal kings can have this way, but now that the vassal kings are thinking about going to Xinming Island to reap the benefits, it is unlikely that Emperor Chongzhen will attack the vassal kings at this time.

Then the only way left for Emperor Chongzhen to make up for his losses is the officials.

And as the source of all this, his own recitals will soon be known by other officials, and these bigwigs who are remembered by His Majesty the Emperor can't hate themselves to death?

Xu Dingchen's heart was a little panicked, but after thinking about it, he panicked? What's there to panic about?

Yes, he stabbed a big basket, which made him unhappy today, and made His Majesty the Emperor angry and didn't want the taxes of Chongzhen for six years and Chongzhen's seven years.

But can't this matter be seen from two sides?

How many of the officials are as clean as themselves? The official stabbed the basket for the sake of the people, and most of those officials stabbed because they were too greedy, can this be the same?

As long as the current emperor still has a little face, and he still wants to lose the reputation of an ancient emperor, this little basket of his own stabbing is not a matter!

Jun Buqian, the human mirror in the Tang Dynasty, that guy sprayed His Majesty Li Er every day when he had something to do, and forced His Majesty Li Er to cover his birds to death, isn't he still alive and free?

Although it is said that the fate after death is a bit miserable, but after all, it is the dirty water that was splashed after death, and it is arrogant when you are alive.

As long as he loves the people like a son, and the reputation of loyalty and daring is on his body, as long as he is not greedy, his majesty the emperor will not be able to turn the sky - can he still frame himself for rebellion?

Thinking about it like this, Xu Dingchen's heart suddenly became much more confident.

But Xu Dingchen's confidence did not last long.

Sun Jin in the engineering department, and Lou Zhilan, the right attendant of the Ministry of Railways, came to Shanxi with a group of subordinates.

The purpose of coming is simple - to build a railway.

And it is the same as when the capital was built, there are two lines to be repaired directly, one is the line from Taiyuan Mansion to Xuanfu and then through Xuanfu to Beijing, and the other line is the line from Taiyuan Mansion to Nanzhili after passing through Henan Mansion.

Oh, no, there is another one, Taiyuan Mansion has to build another railway to Xi'an Province to facilitate future transportation or something.

Terrain exploration or something, naturally the Ministry of Railways and the Ministry of Industry are responsible for the manpower, and the rest of the recruitment of people or something, as well as the arrangement of food and accommodation or something, but it is all your Xu Dingchen Xu's business!

After Xu Dingchen listened to the requirements of Sun Jin and Lou Zhilan, the right attendant of the Ministry of Railways, he almost spurted out a mouthful of old blood.

It's too much, the retaliation came too quickly, and it came so nakedly, without the slightest cover-up, as if to say that I just look at you unhappy, don't have a good time this little day!

Yes, at this time, the autumn harvest is over, although basically nothing has been confiscated, the land that should be leveled has also been leveled, and the people are also idle, just waiting for winter to come.

But Your Majesty, your old man arranged for the construction of the railway so quickly, are you sure this is not revenge?

Even if the official is not in the capital, he knows what the railway construction is all about, right?

The white bones were all over the two sides of the railway, not so much the railroad as the bone road paved with flesh and blood! Although those white bones are all built slaves, there is no need to feel distressed.

But now your old man didn't go to Shanxi to get Jiannu over, this is planning to let the people of the Ming Dynasty die? And then buckle the basin on my Xu Dingchen's body?

Although it is said that this governor of Shanxi is not easy to be, since His Majesty ascended the throne in the seventh year of the Apocalypse, it has now changed to three, and he is the fourth, but this is too difficult to be!

Seeing that Xu Dingchen's face was extremely ugly, Lou Zhilan smiled and said, "What is the difficulty of Lord Xu? ”

Nodding his head and taking another deep breath, Xu Dingchen said: "Yes, what is the topography of Shanxi, Lord Sun and Lord Lou must also know in their hearts."

Forcibly building a railway is tantamount to the first emperor building a straight road and the Great Wall, which is to fill in with human lives. Now that Shanxi and Shaanxi are all suffering, it is not an exaggeration to say that there is no harvest of grains, and then driving the people to build railways, is it not a harmful move to the people?

Xu Mou is in his position, he will speak for the people of Shanxi, if His Majesty must build the railway first, he will first remove Xu Mou from the post of governor! ”

Lou Zhilan snorted and laughed, ignoring Xu Dingchen Tieqing's face, and said with a smile: "Lord Xu, if you don't build this railway, what will the people do in winter?" ”

Xu Dingchen said: "Naturally, it is to level the land, and it is good to recuperate and wait for the next year to cultivate." ”

Lou Zhilan said: "Then according to what Lord Xu said, if the people don't build the railway, they are idle at home and have nothing to do?" Isn't it better to have wages to build a railroad than to be idle at home? ”

Xu Dingchen looked like you couldn't bluff me if I read a book, and sneered: "If you use the bones of the people to build such a road, Xu Mou will feel uneasy!" ”

Seeing that Xu Dingchen had been entangled with the people all the time, Lou Zhilan smiled and said: "Corpses and bones are naturally indispensable, but they are all Jiannu, what do you Lord Xu care?" Jiannu won't give you Lord Xu a fortune! ”

His mother! This official has read a book, step by step from the township test to the palace test, how many years have you been mixed into the position of the governor of Shanxi, you still want to fool the official?

Yes, this shabby place in Shanxi is far away from the capital, but this does not mean that this official is a fool!

How long has it been since the railroad was repaired, and even Yanzhou has not yet arrived, and the dead Jiannu is enough to go from Beijing to Nanzhili.

Besides, Shanxi is not without those who want money and want to go crazy to Liaodong to catch Jiannu in exchange for silver, and the official also knows something, and now the entire Ming Dynasty is about to go crazy, and even Kunlun Nu, which is usually not wanted, can be sold at a good price.

In this case, you told the official to take the bones of Jiannu to build the road? Are you the guppi when you are the official?

Besides, even if the Jiannu thing is enough, you can buy enough Kunlun slaves and white slaves, and you don't need to fill in the bones of the Ming people, but there is still a problem.

Steel!

Railroad railroad, a railroad that is still a fart without iron?

With the current output of steel in Daming, it is enough for you to burn like this? There are really two fucking panicks that burn money, and the loser has never seen such a defeat!

However, Lou Zhilan didn't care about Xu Dingchen's expression at all, but smiled and said: "There are not enough slaves, naturally Kunlun slaves and white slaves will make up, Lord Xu doesn't have to worry."

Besides, let's pick a good section of the road to be repaired and let the people of Daming work and get some wages, which is much better than staying at home and doing nothing all winter, right? ”

Xu Dingchen thought about it and felt that if he did what Lou Zhilan said, as long as he didn't kill the people of the Ming Dynasty, his performance would not be too ugly in the coming year.

But Xu Dingchen thinks that this matter is actually, there is no iron, you build a fart railway?

After Xu Dingchen expressed the worry in his heart, Lou Zhilan smiled and said: "If you have some relatives in Lord Xu's family who know how to smelt iron, you can let them open some steel factories, as long as they are qualified, the Ministry of Industry will purchase them." ”

Xu Dingchen's heart moved, and he asked: "The imperial court intends to open up the mouth of the salt and iron official camp?" ”

Smiling, Lou Zhilan said, "It's not the imperial court, it's Your Majesty." And it's not about letting go of the salt and iron official camp, but about smelting iron, and there is no news about salt so far, so it is estimated that it is impossible to let go. ”

At this time, the topic was no longer the atmosphere at the beginning, and Xu Dingchen no longer mentioned anything about the emperor Chongzhen, let alone the question of whether the railway could be repaired, but ordered his subordinates to prepare wine and food.

After three rounds of drinking, Xu Dingchen said: "The official is not in Beijing, the news is lagging behind, and I hope that the two of you can solve your doubts a lot, and the official is grateful." ”

Pointing at Sun Jin, Lou Zhilan smiled and said: "This is the middle of the engineering department, this matter, you have to ask Lord Sun, the waiter of the Ministry of Railways, I can't talk about this matter." ”

Pouting, Sun Jin smiled: "It's not because the iron is not enough. Pointing to the Ministry of Industry and the Jiaozuo Supervisor, don't think about getting enough steel to build the railway in the next life, not to mention that the locomotive is all made of good steel.

His Majesty has been studying with the cabinet and the Ministry of Industry for a long time, and he is ready to pick a suitable time to open up the opening of iron smelting, and follow the people to smelt iron, and the Ministry of Industry will redeem it at the price. ”

After persuading another glass of wine, Xu Dingchen asked, "What about iron ore?" Moreover, what if some spare money but do not know how to smelt iron want to share the worries of the monarch? ”

Sun Jin smiled: "It's not clear about this, the final result hasn't come out yet, and no one can say right now."

However, the Guogong Mansion and the Hou Mansion in the north and south have already taken action, and they all want to get in and get a piece of the pie. ”

After thinking about it secretly, Xu Dingchen smiled and said, "Then I have to worry a lot about Lord Xu and Lord Lou." This official has been in Shanxi for a long time, and there are no two well-informed people in this kind of news, so do you need two more foils when the time comes? ”

Sun Jin smiled: "What did Lord Xu say?" As colleagues, we should help each other, and if Sun gets any news in Beijing, he will definitely let someone give a copy to Lord Xu. ”

Not to mention Xu Dingchen, now the eyes of the entire Ming Dynasty have begun to focus on the matter of allowing private iron smelting.

Iron tools, this thing is intended to be the official camp, and the people themselves dare to touch this thing, basically ninety percent of them plan to rebel, and the remaining one percent also has a way to the sky to be able to sell these things.

This thing is not like salt, salt is such a thing, and it is normal for illegal salt to overflow, but iron smelting is different.

This thing can be made into a sword to cut people!

From ancient times to the present, iron smelting and iron-making tools have been firmly grasped in the hands of the government, and basically whoever touches it dies.

Coupled with the artisan household system created by Emperor Taizu Gao Zhu Yuanzhang, it is very difficult to have a folk blacksmith shop like the old Song Dynasty.

Although it has begun to loosen up slowly over the years, officially, private blacksmiths and private iron smelting still violate the laws of the Ming Dynasty.

Now Emperor Chongzhen intends to let go of this opening, which means that the emperor wants to divide the silver of Baihuahua with the big guys.
