Chapter 456 Three Fees

The fleet went out to sea, firecrackers were lit up, and the merchant fleet went out from Taiwan was led by the Portuguese, and was sailing to India with raw silk, porcelain, silk and tea. The huge merchant fleet was responsible for purchasing iron-rich ore

, also symbolizes that the overseas trade of the Taiwan Prefecture is on track.

In a few days, the court started to make trouble again, and Wen Tiren promoted another cabinet minister. Seeing that Mr. Wen was still sitting steadily in the position of prime minister, Ma Cheng felt that things in the world were wonderful, and that was nothing more than this.

, This Chief Minister Wen really has no talent for governing the country, and is full of conspiracies and tricks. However, the Chief Minister Wen has lived a more and more prosperous life. A month ago, another confidant was promoted to the cabinet, Xue Guoguan. As soon as this Lord Xue entered the cabinet,

He gave the emperor a bad idea, borrowing money from the royal relatives and nobles.

It is to ask aristocratic bureaucrats to donate money in the form of loans to solve financial urgent needs.

Lord Xue encouraged the emperor to say that foreign bureaucrats could be kept in his body, and as for the royal relatives, the emperor must take action himself. His Majesty Chongzhen was actually very happy and did as he did, so he first went to Wuqing in the name of the emperor's imperial edict.

Hou Li Guorui had an operation and asked him to donate 400,000 taels of silver in the name of "using the help".

At that time, the royal relatives all made money with their privileges, but they had no worries about the country and the people. Li Guorui was no exception. He was like an iron rooster who did not dare to openly disobey the imperial edict. He had to deliberately pretend to be poor, demolish his own house, and make the miscellaneous things in his home.

Put it on the street and betrayed the city. This was a storm. This was simply a detrimental to the royal family. Zhu Youjian was very angry and ordered Li Guorui to be deprived of his title and salary. Li Guorui was frightened and died of frightening. However, the wind of "using the help" became more and more intense, causing

Everyone in the royal family is in danger, and they are unwilling to avoid disasters due to money and disasters.

Now there are demons dancing in the capital, and the emperor is busy borrowing money everywhere.

Nanju Yiku sat in the governor's yamen and almost cried. The late emperor, please open your eyes and see. The decency of the Tian family is gone. Ma Cheng also felt that his face was dull and very embarrassed.

His Majesty Chongzhen is really the stupid son of the landlord family. The prince of the Ming Dynasty had a pig-raising policy, and the stupid emperor raised. The emperor was in charge of the lord Wuqing's lords money, but the lord Wuqing refused to borrow it and pretended to be crazy. The emperor was anxious and threatened to ask for it.

The punishment of the crime scared the Marquis of Wuqing to death.

His Majesty opened his mouth to borrow money, and the civil and military forces in the court were crazy and actually staged a farce.

Your Majesty set a rule for all officials, 30,000 taels are the best, and the highest amount is only 20,000 taels. It was donated by Duke Cheng, Zhu Chunchen, the eunuch Wang An, donated 10,000 taels, and Wen Tiren, the chief minister of the cabinet, donated 5.

Hundreds of 100 officials in the capital were cheating, crying for poverty, and doing all kinds of weird things. Some families went to the streets to practice stalls and sell arts, while others labeled their own luxury houses in the inner city, and wrote a letter to this house for urgent sale.

There were so many tricks that the whole world was in an uproar. After raising 200,000 taels of silver for more than half a month.

Two hundred thousand taels are not a small amount, but His Majesty Chongzhen still refused to give up and asked all officials to recommend a rich man from their hometowns to donate.

Once this order was released, only one person from Nanzhili and Zhejiang were selected within half a month.

His Majesty Chongzhen suppressed his anger. He made great contributions at several major court meetings. For a moment, the crying sounds in the court were shocking. All officials made great wishes after crying, but they remained silent. The gentry from various provinces responded.

There were only a few people, and a farce in which the emperor borrowed money ended up in the end. Ma Cheng watched coldly in Taiwan, sighing in his heart. Emperor Chongzhen, who cried poorly, was not the first, and it was rare to make such an embarrassing fuss.

The emperor cried poorly, and all officials cried poorly, and the royal family was truly decent.

I also know that this young emperor was forced to do something urgent. In less than a year, the Guanjin defense line under construction exhausted the savings of the late emperor.

Tamsui, Hongmao City.

Nanjuyi was in the governor's office and ordered the three departments of Taiwan to allocate 100,000 taels of cash and 50,000 shi of grain to ship and donate it in the name of Taiwanese gentry, becoming the third prefecture to respond to the emperor's call. Macheng did not stop it.

The truth is just a sigh of grief for Mr. Nan. These loyal ministers and generals of the Ming Dynasty are respectable and lamentable.

The newly opened land in Taiwan requires money everywhere, and the newly built naval forces and the military are all bottomless pits that burn money.

Despite this, Nan Juyi still squeezed out wealth and food from his teeth to support the capital. You should know that the emperor in the capital had to be removed from his post a month ago. Looking at the prefectures controlled by the Donglin Party in various places, there is only Nan

Zhili and Zhejiang gave the emperor some slightest favor and donated 30,000 taels of silver to make up the matter. The emperor came forward to raise funds, and the royal family's dignity was gone. They raised more than 300,000 taels of silver in a month.

What is 300,000 taels of silver enough? It is probably enough for the Shanhaiguan army to consume in two months. What should we do after two months? It is impossible to stop the construction of Guanning City, and maintain 150,000 soldiers and 200,000 civilians.

The money and food required to build a city on the front line is an astronomical figure. The huge Guanningjin garrison formed a sharp contrast with the elite military strategy implemented by Macheng, and completely overwhelmed the Ming Dynasty's finances.

Liao Sheng, this thing is not the original creation of Emperor Chongzhen. It was collected in the 46th year of Wanli.

In the 46th year of Wanli, the imperial court increased the Liao salary, and an average of nine li of silver per mu of land was added, totaling 5.2 million taels of snowflakes. However, it was abolished in the 48th year of Wanli, and the imperial court no longer collected Liao salary. This shows that the Shenzong was in the 48th year of Wanli.

Emperor Wanli was so smart that the land in the world was not unavailable for additional wages. Nine cents of silver per mu were levied for two years, bringing 14 million taels of tax to the court, but it cannot be used as a common example.

Emperor Shenzong only increased Liao pay for two years and was abolished, leaving a way out for the people of the world.

However, now the Liao tuition has started again, and the land quota has been increased from nine cents per mu to one cent and two cents, and the distribution of 6.67 million taels of silver was shocking.

This Liao salary plan was proposed by Wen Tiren, and the emperor has approved it.

In addition to Liao salary, Wen Shaofu's tax increase plan also has suppressed salary. The three salary is collectively called the three salary, which is also the largest tax increase in the Ming Dynasty. Wen Tiren's plan to increase the 2.8 million taels of suppressed salary, mainly from

Because grain, that is, the amount of six-hea per mu, each stone will be reduced to eight coins, and the annual silver will be obtained by 1929,000 silver, and the annual silver will be obtained by 406,000 silver, and the annual silver will be obtained by 20 yuan.

Ten thousand taels.

The total salary was more than 7.3 million taels, mainly including land tax. According to Wen Tiren, the country is narrow and the country is heavy in grain. It is a mu of land, with one more cent per mu, totaling more than 481,180 taels.

, and the taxes and service of 700,000 yuan, the Ministry of War cut off 500,000 yuan in silver, 200,000 yuan in customs duties, 400,000 yuan in salt tax, 240,000 yuan in deed tax, 200,000 yuan in account, 30,000 yuan in vain tax, 200,000 yuan in public expenses, 200,000 yuan in miscellaneous taxes

One hundred and seventy-eight thousand.

So how much money did these three pays take out from the pockets of the people? Ma Cheng and Nan Juyi estimated that last year, the normal annual income of the imperial court was more than 14 million taels, of which they were included in the inner palace as the emperor.

More than 6 million yuan belongs to the government expenditure of the Ministry of Revenue, but only more than 4 million taels. The additional three taxes were as high as 20 million taels, even far exceeding the income from the regular tax.

After analyzing the court's plan to increase the three-money salary, Nan Juyi was restless and wanted to write a letter to give a letter to advise him.
