"Your Majesty, even if you raise taxes on merchants all over the world, you can't cancel the exemption for officials' shops, right? Grace is a regulation left by the ancestors, how can it be said that destruction is destruction? How to reflect the emperor's grace? ”

Xinguo Gong Tang Yi couldn't hold back any longer, stood up, and shouted.

"Yes, Your Majesty, the grace and exemption were determined by the ancestors, and the cancellation of the grace and exemption is a great disrespect to the ancestors! The emperor is going to be infamous for being unfilial! ”

Chang Enpei, the Duke of Eguo, said urgently.

Chongzhen's face sank, and he shouted: "You only think about the royal grace, have you ever thought about whether what you are doing is worthy of the royal grace?" I have made up my mind, and all the honorables and officials have been canceled! ”

"The emperor thinks twice!"

"The minister asks the emperor to take back his order!"

"You, you!"

Chongzhen said angrily: "You only care about playing your own small calculations and canceling the exemption, you just lose a little tax, but with these taxes, the imperial court has the strength to train troops and strengthen the country, look at Zhu Jie, how did he do it?" Millions of taels of silver were directly donated to the imperial court! What about you! ”

"Your Majesty, the minister has a word!"

Zhu Jie hurriedly stood up and said.

"Speak!"

Zhu Jie replied: "Your Majesty, it is everyone's duty to cancel the exemption and collect taxes, however, after all, the nobles and officials work day and night, and the salary in the court is very limited, so it is the ministers who ask the emperor for an order to allow the people to mine mines, open the sea ban, and conduct trade, so that the adults also have one more way to make money, and it can be regarded as compensation for the ministers......

Chongzhen's face softened, and he nodded: "Well, what Zhu Aiqing said is not unreasonable, since this is the case, then issue a decree, no restrictions on private mining of mines, iron mines, coal mines, copper mines, tin mines, all mines, all mines can be mined, just pay taxes according to the regulations, the sea is banned, and the imperial court will no longer restrict it, as long as you pay tariffs, you can go to sea to trade!" ”

The ministers looked at each other, it seems that this is another double play between the emperor and Zhu Jie, but there is no way, the emperor has already recognized what he wants to do, even if he opposes it, it is useless, and now even the six subjects have been withdrawn from the matter, and it is impossible to refute the emperor's will. Fortunately, the full opening of mines and sea bans has given all people another way to make a fortune, especially in mining, which is amazingly profitable......

"Passing the decree, this time the Shanxi Jin merchants were eliminated, Zhu Aiqing made a great contribution, and they all commanded the affairs Lan Tianzheng is also hard work, and all the money of the Jin merchants in the capital was given to Zhu Aiqing to operate properly, and Lan Tianzheng was promoted to the commander of the Jinyi Guard, acting in charge of the affairs of the Jinyi Guard! The Treasury Department of the Ministry of Households counted all the stolen money and handed it over to the bank for safekeeping. ”

Chongzhen shouted in a deep voice.

Zhu Jie hurriedly thanked him, these days, he has been preparing for the bank, as long as the bank is prepared, it will become the cash cow of the Ming Dynasty, the court has no money, but the private dignitaries, the wealthy businessmen have silver, it won't take long to raise a huge amount of money by himself, no matter what he does, don't worry, money can make a grinding ghost!

After disposing of the Jin merchants, Zhu Jie shifted his energy back to his own affairs, preparing to build a money bank, opening a mine, and making firearms, no matter which one is not a simple matter.

Fortunately, now Zhu Jie has made nearly 1,000 flintlock muskets in the past half a year, and now the Firearms Bureau and the War Bureau have become their own institutions, Zhu Jie has gathered all the outstanding craftsmen of the two institutions to create a new type of flintlock musket, and the speed of manufacturing and production has been greatly improved, but the speed of producing guns has increased, but now the raw materials of bullets and guns are somewhat unable to keep up, and guns need fine iron and copper, lead blocks, gunpowder needs sulfur, and similarly, a large amount of flint is also needed, especially sulfur, after a plague, Tongzhou Town almost exhausted all the excess sulfur, without sulfur, what to use to make gunpowder?

However, money, copper smelting, iron smelting, and sulfur, none of which are inseparable from talents, and they are not short of money, but now they are lacking people! Talents, no matter how great their ability is, it is impossible to do everything alone, and they are not proficient in everything and understand everything......

Now like this, I can only take one step at a time, no matter what, prepare for the matter of the money bank first!

Zhu Mansion, Zhu Jie looked at Lin Lan, and said with a smile: "Lan'er, this time I'm afraid that you will be out again, but you have to take on the affairs of this money bank, you also know that the army is a group of big bosses, and it is not good for them to manage a stream of immortals, let alone run a money village?" This bank is our biggest money bag, and we can't afford to lose it......"

Lin Lan patted her head in distress, and said helplessly: "My eldest brother, I can barely manage a restaurant, and you let me take over so much money?" I'm going crazy! ”

Zhu Jie spread his hands and replied: "I can't help it, you see, where do I go to follow such a talent?" It's okay, anyway, I'll design all the plans for you to run the bank, you just need to do it step by step, and the rest has the account room responsible for the accounts, and the small shopkeeper is responsible for soliciting customers, and it's not as hard as you think......"

"Soliciting?"

Lin Lan and Chen Yuanyuan's faces turned red and exclaimed in surprise.

Forehead......

Zhu Jie's face darkened, and he hurriedly replied: "It's not what you imagined, it's to pull guests in to deposit money, pull guests to borrow money, money keeps flowing in, and we keep lending out, so we can make a profit......"

"Oh my God, my lord, you're scared to death the slaves......"

Chen Yuanyuan thought that Zhu Jie let them run a brothel, his towering chest kept rising and falling, his face was crimson, and he was indescribably charming!

Beautiful, beautiful, alluring the country and the city!

Since experiencing the clouds and rain with Da Yuer, Zhu Jie's resistance to beauties has become weaker and weaker, guarding two beauties, but there is no chance to start, which is really mouthwatering.

Zhu Jie looked at Chen Yuanyuan, who was captivating the country and the city, with his cherry mouth open, constantly caressing his undulating chest, not only a little thoughtful!

Lin Lanxiu is outwardly wise, Da Yuer is heroic, this Chen Yuanyuan is extremely charming, and the three women are good at winning!

"Ahem!"

Lin Lan coughed and said, "Big brother, you ......"

Chen Yuanyuan realized that Zhu Jie's vision was a little wrong, his face was red with shame, and he wanted to go under the table.

"Hehe, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I was rude, haha, but, Miss Yuanyuan, it's really a country and a city, that man is going to be ...... when he sees it."

Zhu Jie smiled awkwardly.

"Okay, you're getting worse and worse, big brother, I'm going to be reluctant to follow with the round girl, but you can find someone to replace us as soon as possible, it'......s been a long time, and it's easy to get into trouble."

Lin Lan said helplessly.
