"What is the reaction to the seizure of the house in Jiangnan?" Qin Mu looked down at the music and asked, this time the raid on the Qing officials' homes was carried out in the entire Jiangnan at the same time, not just Jinling, he had already ordered the reaction caused by this matter not to be closely monitored at night.

Huang Lianshan hurriedly replied: "Qi Qin Wang, in the news received so far, there have been some small-scale rebellions in Changzhou, Yixing, Wujin, Kunshan and other places, all of which have been quickly quelled by the army. ”

"Well, don't take it lightly, the impact of this matter may be further expanded in the future, let Ye Bushui strengthen the collection of information, this king does not want to have turmoil because of this."

"Yes, King Qin." Huang Lianshan quit after answering.

Qin Muxin picked up a book of chapters, and saw that it was from Huang Zhenlin, a member of the Ministry of Works, but it was not about the construction of the palace, but about the discussion of money and taxes, Qin Mu looked at it very seriously, and there was such a paragraph:

"The small people are valued by money, and the merchants use silver to transfer department stores. It is also sold in the market, and the price of silver is fixed. Therefore, the side price of silver is low, and the price of silver is high. And the people also convert money into silver, and if the price of silver is high, it will be more silver, and the small people will be in great difficulty."

This passage deals with the question of the comparison of the price of silver and copper coins, and it is very well discussed. The whole chapter is full of thousands of words, and a relatively comprehensive analysis of the currency and tax issues in the late Ming Dynasty has attracted great attention from Qin Mu.

Since ancient times, every new political regime has been established with a comprehensive analysis of the previous dynasty's national policies, systems, economy, bureaucratic governance, taxation, and military system. Sort out the gains and losses, and use them as a lesson from the past, so that the new dynasty can make use of its strengths and avoid its weaknesses, and formulate a more perfect and suitable policy strategy.

The reason why the Ming Dynasty fell was directly related to the decline of finance and taxation, if Chongzhen had more sufficient goods, which could be used to recruit troops and help the victims, the Ming Dynasty would definitely not have perished so quickly.

It is precisely because of this understanding that Qin Mu attaches great importance to Huang Zhenlin's recital. Immediately, several copies were transcribed. It was distributed to the officials of the six ministries and asked everyone to think about this issue first and discuss it at tomorrow's court meeting.

Qin Mu thought about it and asked someone to copy it again. Then let Han Zanzhou take it to the gate of the Gongyuan to post it. Solicit opinions from the private sector.

One comes. This can show that you are open-minded.

Second, more talents can be tapped from the people.

The most important point is that the raids on those ministers who have been demoted have caused a lot of waves. When this issue of money and taxes was posted, it was sure to divert the attention of the reader to the greatest extent possible, and the turmoil caused by the raid quickly calmed down.

And Huang Zhenlin's performance made Qin Mu himself fall into thought, he put down the matter at hand, and thought slowly on the path in the garden, the garden was fragrant with plants and trees, quiet and elegant, and no one came to disturb his thoughts.

So far, the structure of the Qin State is basically inherited from the Ming Dynasty, and in terms of taxation, in addition to raising the commercial tax, the tax system is basically following Zhang Juzheng's whip method.

Now the Qin State is not bad for money, and it can even be said that it is very rich, first of all, this is because the Huguang and Jiangnan that the Qin State now occupies are the richest regions in the world;

Since the middle and late Ming Dynasty, almost all of the world's wealth has come from Jiangnan and Huguang, and after the Qin State now occupies these two regions, it does not have to bear the huge expenses north of the Central Plains, and the households where they are rich in money and food.

The second reason was that he obtained a windfall of 69 million taels from Beijing, which was more than ten years of revenue in the Ming Dynasty.

The third is the income of the bank, frequent wars, so that people feel that the money is not at ease at home, so many people choose to deposit their property in the relatively safe Huitong Bank, businessmen to carry out transactions in different places, are carried out by means of foreign exchange, so that the bank profits are very considerable.

But except for the bank, the first two things are not enough, Daqin can't stay in Jiangnan forever, and Li Zicheng won't get up from the ground to give you another windfall.

In the future, once the Northern Expedition is launched, it will not only bear huge military expenditures, but also hundreds of people will need relief when they take over the ruined north.

Therefore, it is certainly not the way to follow the fiscal and taxation system of the Ming Dynasty unchanged.

After thinking about it for half an hour, Qin Mu had a little gain in his heart, and then he stopped, feeling that his feet were a little numb, and when he looked back, he found that it was no longer the two sisters Mo Mo and Ruoruo who were far behind, but Dong Xiaowan.

Qin Mu only said that the two sisters were tired of following, so they replaced Dong Xiaowan, so they didn't care too much.

Dong Xiaowan is wearing a Tianshui bisi embroidered palace dress, covered with clouds and colorful shoulders, and a simple tourmaline carved hairpin is inserted in the concentric bun, her face is elegant and poetic, holding a saucer and standing under the fairy peak made of strange stones, like a fairy who does not eat fireworks in the world.

Qin Mu had been walking for so long, he happened to be thirsty, and beckoned to her, "Xiao Wan, come here." ”

Dong Xiaowan hurriedly came over, put the saucer on the stone table, Chun Onion Bai'er's fingers delicately lifted the lid of a bucket color grape pattern tea cup, Hao wrist turned, and the pot made half a cup of fragrant tea for him, and then picked up Yingying Yifu and served the tea, every movement was full of soft and light beauty.

Qin Mu took the teacup and took a sip, the crisp fragrance of tea mixed with the pleasant fragrance on Dong Xiaowan's body, refreshing people's hearts, he smiled and said, "How long have you been following behind, aren't you thirsty?" ”

"The slave just replaced Mo Mo and Ruoruo not long ago, and he is not thirsty, the slave heard that the king of Qin is about to walk for half an hour, he must be tired, you can sit down and rest, the slave will rub your feet." Dong Xiaowan's eyes are full of affection, her eyebrows are like the curved green daisies of distant mountains, and her smooth and flat forehead makes her face look more and more beautiful.

Qin Mujiao's feet were indeed a little sleepy, sitting on the swing frame by the green curtain, not far from the green pond, a maple tree moved from Qixia Ridge had been dyed a few patches of pale red by the autumn frost.

Dong Xiaowan squatted down and helped him gently knead his legs and feet, looking down from above, he could see that her white pink neck was as white as jade with a moving flush, and a small emerald and gemstone pendant was hanging under her soft ears, swaying gently with her movements.

"Didn't you go to Bao'en Temple with Qiao'er in the morning to offer incense? What about the girl? ”

"Qiao'er was tired of playing, so she went back to her room to sleep when she came back."

"Didn't you go shopping with her?"

"Accompanied."

"Huh?" Qin Mu bent down and carried her to the swing frame, and asked suspiciously, "That girl is so tired that she went back to the room and fell asleep, can you be okay?" ”

Qin Mu carefully looked between her eyebrows, and finally found a wisp of tiredness that she was concealing, Dong Xiaowan was originally an extremely delicate person, where could he compare with the lively and active Qiao'er, but he was just holding on to replace Mo Mo and Ruoruo.

"King Qin" Dong Xiaowan avoided his gaze, and there was a trace of embarrassment on his face.

"You, don't spoil that girl too much, she's used to being wild, she won't fight for three days, go to the house and uncover the tiles, if you come with her temperament, you have to exhaust yourself." Qin Mu said and hugged her into his arms with pity.

"The slave has nothing to do." The swing swayed gently, Dong Xiaowan, who was unstable in his center of gravity, subconsciously hugged him, the soft and moving twin peaks were close to him, and the faint body fragrance spread.

"Tell me, what's the matter with me?"

In addition to Mo Mo and Ruoruo, there were other maids in the house, Dong Xiaowan was tired like this and still insisted on serving tea, Qin Mu knew after a little thought that she had something to ask for.

"No slaves, no slaves, no troubles" Dong Xiaowan glanced at him quickly, stopped talking, and lowered his head with apprehension.

Qin Mu didn't ask much, he picked her up directly and walked towards her boudoir.

"King Qin, let the slaves come down, King Qin, you"

Qin Mu kissed her smooth forehead lightly and said, "Look at you're tired, go back to the house first and sleep well, and then talk about what you have to do." ”

Dong Xiaowan lowered her eyelids slightly, and hazy tears appeared in her eyes, "King Qin, the slave wants to ask you to forgive a person." ”

Dong Xiaowan finally puffed up her breath and said her meaning, she was quiet by nature, she had no quarrel with the world, she had followed Qin Mu for so long, and it was the first time she begged Qin Mu.

Qin Mu now has a busy military and political affairs every day to worry about, Dong Xiaowan really doesn't want to bother him anymore, not to mention that this time I want him to pardon the family of a criminal official, I don't know if it will anger him, how will the ministers react if they know it? The more Dong Xiaowan thought about it, the more chaotic her heart became.

But seeing that the old man has become a prisoner and may die at any time, Dong Xiaowan has no other way than to beg him.

"Tell me, who do you want me to pardon?"
