Zhu Linmiao was planning how to allocate these funds, and Shi Lin came to pass and said that Zhu Xianzhi, the king of Jinyu, asked to see him.

Since the previous Jin king Zhu Xianxuan was captured by Li Zicheng to Beijing, and then fell into the hands of Jianyu, the position of Jin king has been empty for a long time. Later, his third brother Zhu Xianxuan fled to Fujing and was crowned King Yu of Jin, which actually replaced Zhu Xianxuan's position in the line of King Jin.

Since the King of Jin has been serving as the Zongren Mansion all the year round, it is Zhu Xianzhi's turn to take this position - anyway, it is ten thousand years of idleness, and no one cares.

However, King Jinyu has been really busy these days, and when he entered the study, he bowed to Zhu Linmiao, and then immediately held a booklet.

The latter took it and opened it, and saw that the first page read: Lu Wangfu, 200,000 taels of silver, 240,000 shares of the ocean-going caravan. Approximately all the treasury money was paid, and it was not received......

Han Wangfu, 30,000 taels of silver, 8,000 shares of Foshan Iron Works. It was about to be paid with treasury silver and Yanzhou good land, but it was not received......

At the end of each page, there are also signatures and drawings of the feudal lords and court officials.

"Grandfather Wang, the details of the investment of a total of forty-three clan relatives are recorded here, and the maritime caravan and the iron factory have the most silver." Zhu Xianzhi looked full of ambition, he has lived so much, and he has never been as busy as in recent days, "In addition, more than 700 clan relatives in Jiangsu and Zhejiang sent news yesterday, saying that they would also buy shares, but it was too fragmented and had not yet been registered. ”

Zhu Xianzhi has a very low rank in the clan, although he is in his thirties, he is really Zhu Linmiao's grandchild.

Zhu Linmiao roughly flipped through it, and it was basically the same as the content he left behind, it seems that this King of Jinyu is quite reliable.

He put down the detailed rules for clan relatives to participate in shares, and only told Zhu Xianzhi to say: "You can take someone to clarify the matter involving silver, but the focus after that is to verify those clan relatives who are living in difficulty."

"Make it clear to men one by one, and do not miss one or be deceived. For the clan relatives who can't live without Yulu, each person can receive six acres of fertile land, and the Yulu will be reduced to 60% for another two years.

"The acres of land are allocated from the Huangzhuang, and they are only allowed to plant, rent-free for five years, but they are still the land of the Huangzhuang. Thereafter, the rent is paid in the same way as ordinary Huangzhuang contractors. ”

After Li Zicheng, Zhang Xianzhong, and Jianyu's repeated purges and strangulations, there are only more than 100,000 Ming clans left on the ground in the nine provinces of the Taizheng Dynasty. Among so many clan relatives, there are very few who can really attack the lord, and there are not too many who score a piece of family property, and more than seventy percent of the clan relatives are actually slightly better off than a well-off living standard, and there are even a few who are extremely poor.

If these people suddenly stop their work, they will not be able to do anything, and they may starve to death on the streets. The most troublesome thing is that these people are all descendants of the Zhu family, and if they are used by someone with a heart, it is difficult to ensure that there will be no trouble.

Zhu Xianzhi hesitated and said: "Grandfather Wang, but this ancestral system stipulates that clan relatives are not allowed to farm. These eight acres of land are in their hands, and I am afraid that they can only rent them to others, and if they are deceived by the people again, they will still have no ...... life."

"You're right," Zhu Linmiao said, "so these people have to take the initiative to get out of their nationality, sign and draw the pledge, move out of the family tree, and fend for themselves in the future." In this way, the ancestral system cannot bind them. ”

Zhu Xianzhi was taken aback, "This, can this work?" I'm afraid they won't agree. ”

Zhu Linmiao smiled, "There is no more money left and right, tell them that anyone who voluntarily gives up his clan status can receive another three acres of land and postpone the payment for half a year." There is only a two-month chance to leave the country, and those who are hesitant will no longer have these benefits. ”

"Yes, my grandson can save it."

……

"Bertman, just look at your face, there must be bad news for me." A middle-aged man with blond hair stood proudly on the bow deck of the Gravlan, glanced at the young man beside him, still looking at the sea in the distance, and said, "Say, it's always been like this lately anyway, I'm going to get used to it." ”

The young man took a breath and saluted, "General Bes, the Egret lost the Spaniards. He glanced at Bess's look and hurriedly added, "The Spaniards ventured out last night and the Egret has tried to keep up, but the Spaniards are obviously very familiar with the waterways......"

"Okay, I got it."

Bess waved his hand to pull him off, turned to his first mate and said, "Cesario, in that case, we have to go to the southeast and intercept them from the inside, and we must not give them a chance to get close to the captain."

"Order, raise the flag, rudder the left, and go south from the west side of Dagou Island. In addition, the Salman was sent to search westward. ”

"Yes!"

Cesario immediately turned the rudder, and when the whole fleet had finished turning and raising the sails again, he said to Bess in a complaining tone: "General, what do the Spaniards want to do?" They don't get any benefit from wandering around Tofan. ”

"I don't know," said Bess in a calm tone, "that Mr. Ovat has sent an envoy to Manila, but the Spaniards have not seen him at all.

"Actually, there is nothing surprising that we just broke through the Spanish stronghold in the chicken coop last year and achieved a monopoly on the coastal trade of the Ming Kingdom, and it is expected that they will come to find trouble."

The second mate of Bess on the side looked worried, "General, it is said that they have made a lot of money in trade with the Ming Kingdom in the past six months, perhaps Madrid has decided to increase its investment in the Far East...... The authorities in Manila are not trying to declare war on us, are they? ”

"A declaration of war?" Beth sneered, "Aren't we at war with the Netherlands?" Although in the Far East everyone had their own interests, it is not surprising that the war spread from Europe. ”

The Dutch Confederation is the collective name for the Dutch cities that were formerly under Spanish rule, and they began their rebellion against Spain nearly 100 years ago and are now almost victorious. The latter is also known as the Low Countries Rebellion.

"But," he said, "Manila is not strong enough to challenge us, otherwise they will send a fleet of reinforcements when we besiege the chicken coop."

"The Spaniards also have a lot of trouble to deal with, and they can't send seven warships to hang around Dongfan for a long time without any purpose."

He suddenly remembered something, "By the way, you said that Spain used Macao to trade with the Ming Kingdom...... Perhaps they want to assert their prowess and warn us not to interfere with their newfound trade routes......"

As he spoke, Berthman turned back again, this time looking a little excited, "General, the Warren just sent back news that a Spanish light warship had been spotted on the southeast side. It's less than fifty nautical miles away. ”

"It seems that my judgment is correct," Bess's conceited smile "as long as a ship is found, their main fleet must be nearby!" ”
