We also want to build roads, but where does the money come from!

If you are not in charge of your family, you don’t know how expensive it is. Things are prioritized. The country now needs money everywhere, and some things can only be put on hold for the time being.

In fact, my grandson felt that building a road may not cost much! Zhu Yunxi smiled and said that it is good for them to organize merchants to raise funds to build roads. If the road is well-built, it will also be good for them! The gentry in Jiangnan is rich, so they can take out some of them and build them one by one. Once the road is well-built, they will gain both good reputation and the people will also gain benefits.

People of this era regarded the word "fame" very important. For example, the Shili Bridge outside the capital was built by a merchant gentry in the Song Dynasty. The names of the people who invested were engraved on the bridgehead, but the handwriting was clear after a hundred years. The descendants of the people who invested were also quite proud and regarded them as good deeds by their ancestors in their families.

It is absolutely not possible! Before Zhu Yuanzhang spoke, the Minister of Rites in the hall said, "It is good for people to build bridges and roads, but that is why local merchants and local households return their hometowns to benefit their hometowns and keep good names." Besides, how could the court ask the people for money.

The Minister of Revenue also said, "This opening cannot be opened, the people are eager to serve, and the country cannot want it. Your Highness, beware of the problem. If this opening is opened, it will be difficult to close it! Raising the people is lenient, and benevolence. If this opening is opened, now building roads and letting the people raise funds. The court has tasted the sweetness. If it is fought in the future, building the Great Wall and consuming money and food, will it also raise funds from the people? In this way, our Ming Dynasty is not...

Old and successful in planning the country! Zhu Yuanzhang nodded and said, "This hole cannot be opened, the Ming Dynasty cannot ask for money from the people, and this trend cannot rise!"

This is a conflict of ideas. The country has no money to carry out infrastructure construction, and it is not a big problem to introduce some private funds. If the infrastructure is well done, it will be of great benefit to people's livelihood.

However, Zhu Yunqiu also understood the concerns of the old man and Fu Youwen, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue. This is an era of no restraint of power. If the court sees money easily, good things will turn into bad things in the future.

Some things are still unhurried.

Grandson also had another idea! Zhu Yunxiu pondered and spoke again, saying that building roads can help people's livelihood. However, building roads is a pure expense and the court cannot get rewards. The finances are tight, so it is naturally impossible to build them for years, let alone maintaining official roads on weekdays.

Zhu Yunxiu paused and continued, but if the official road was built smoothly, the cargo was running quickly and the highway was running, and no matter the wind, snow and heavy rain, there would be no trouble for business traveling. My grandson thought, could it be possible to set up the tolls for the official road and collect it according to the weight of the vehicle. The funds collected were used for the maintenance of the official road construction and maintenance of the official road, and it would be used for special funds...

What a nonsense! Zhu Yuanzhang said seriously that the people support the country and the country feeds the people, just like father and son. Road is the road for the people of the world. The imperial court built roads for people to walk, so how could there be a reason to collect money? If the people have to collect money when walking, what will happen to our Ming Dynasty? Then will it be that many thatched houses on the roadside in the future, and the people will have to pay for shit and pee?

Building roads and people's livelihood is the responsibility of the court. If you can't do it, it is already incompetent for the court. After building some roads, you still ask for money from the people. What do the people in the world think?

Dasun, you are all good, but sometimes you are too erotic. Remember, it is our duty to seek welfare for the people. You cannot pass these on to the people just because the court is unable to take into account the financial difficulties now. We know the principle of taking it from the people and using it for the people, but this is not taking it from the people, it is a waste of money!

Zhu Yunxiu quickly stood up and bowed down to salute. Grandpa Huang said, "Grandpa Huang is not surprised."

In fact, there is a big blueprint in Zhu Yunqi's heart.

The prosperity of a country's business is accompanied by developed transportation, and coupled with postal services, this is a circular economy. Although some things cannot be seen, they are indeed of great benefit to the country's economy and people's livelihood.

Moreover, with postal services, the quantity of goods and types of goods of past merchants can be clearly registered and registered, which plays an important role in collecting commercial taxes in the future.

Commercial tax is the support tax of the country. According to registered goods, commercial tax is much better than not collecting taxes now and collecting less taxes. I dare not say that there are too many silk taxes and cloth taxes in Jiangsu and Zhejiang every year are astronomical figures.

If the road is repaired, there is no need to worry about merchants evading taxes. They will issue complete tax filing notes at various stations and issue them at checkpoints along the way so that they can be unobstructed.

With unified and clear taxes and tax filing notes issued by the government, merchants are not afraid of local officials exploitation.

Even if the merchant tax is not collected now, the money that the merchants pass by will go a lot. After the imperial court collects taxes, they will naturally make decisions for them.

In the long run, this is a good thing. Zhu Yunyu has some reference to the meaning of the expressway in later generations, and it is also beneficial to the national finances.

In fact, what the Emperor's Crown Prince said has been around since ancient times! Liu Sanwu, a Hanlin scholar, spoke up and said that it was nothing more than setting up Kalijin. This matter was not tyranny, and it was properly applied...

You don’t have to help your students! Zhu Yuanzhang said, “We understand all of you. When the world was not yet determined, we also did this in Jiangnan. But now it is the time for the whole world to unify and support the people.”

The road is carried by people. People are not just businessmen. Do people who take the road need to collect money? If they don’t charge money, they won’t leave? It’s a big deal! Besides, the good scriptures of the center will be read to you wrongly when you arrive. At that time, local officials will see the money and go to the right place, and the people will be the ones who will suffer!

The old man is stubborn and cute and always takes the blame. But in fact, what he said makes some sense.

It would be better to do this. Local governments build roads, mobilize civil servants, and those who perform labor service can be exempted from certain taxes. Zhu Yunqiu said again, "The people do not have to pay money and grain, and they will probably be willing to pay for their labor!"

This is a good idea! Zhu Yuanzhang thought about it, but the matter must be done bit by bit. First, choose a few prefectures and counties with bad roads to try it out, and let the government post a notice to convey it to the people. Remember, the people must be voluntarily and must not recruit people at will or abuse their strength.

The ministers and others received the order! The Ministry of Revenue, Ministry of Works and other ministers possessed them and received the order.

Afterwards, the court meeting took place for a long time. The Ministry of War reported the rewards to the soldiers on the nine sides at the end of the year, and the replacement of war horses, armor and weapons in each town. These are all things that require money, and it hurts people's heads.

Their father and a group of ministers talked for several hours before the small court dispersed.

The ministers left, and the old man rubbed his temples on the dragon chaise and looked at Zhu Yunxiu, are you tired?

Zhu Yunxi smiled and said, "It's okay!"

It’s okay but tired! Sitting in these few hours is tired! Zhu Yuanzhang said, but how can you not be tired if you govern the country?

As he said that, the old man walked to the desk and threw a memorial over. Look at this!

Seeing that the old man had a solemn expression, it seemed that something was important.

Zhu Yunyu opened it and looked, his pupils suddenly shrank.

King Zhu Di of Yan, for the century-old plan of Liaodong, requested the emperor to allow the recruitment of the Hu tribes in Liaodong to enrich the border troops, and to use them for the Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Di wanted to use the Youzi to recruit Hu people to expand his strength!

Now there are 50,000 troops directly under the King of Yan in the Beiping area, which is already a powerful vassal in the world. If the Jurchens and Mongolian tribes are recruited from Liaodong, their strength will probably increase like a snowball.

You said, we don’t agree! Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Zhu Yunxi again, sat down and said.

If you don’t, the fourth uncle will also look for you secretly! Zhu Yunsheng smiled and said, if the Hu tribe is willing to surrender, it will be better than to exert effort to wipe them out.

However, my grandson felt that I could not use the fourth uncle to recruit in his name!

Whose is used? Zhu Yuanzhang asked.

Of course, it was the Ming Dynasty that made the Hu tribes understand that they were working for our Ming Dynasty! Zhu Yunxi smiled and said, "Besides, recruiting Hu tribes outside the Great Wall is a civil servant in the Ministry of Rites. It is probably a bit inappropriate for the fourth uncle to come forward." Since he had this proposal, his grandson felt that it would be better to let the Censorship and the Chief Secretary's Office in Peking go to the office.

Ha! Zhu Yuanzhang laughed, you boy, you are not a good-looking lamp! As he said, stand up, go and do things about your children and grandchildren! We are old and don’t want to worry about this!

Then, he turned around and said, "Carry up and go to the military camp. Lan Yu and the others are waiting for you, the crown prince, to come in person!"

Yes! Zhu Yunxiu stood up and smiled and said, "God is going now, so that the soldiers of the three armies will definitely let the emperor's grandfather be so kind!"

Sorry, everyone, there are only two updates. The book on the outside station is about to end, and I really have limited energy.

Originally, I didn’t want to end that book so soon. After all, it’s a subscription of more than 4,000 yuan, and it’s more than 20,000 yuan per month. I just want to spend two or three months, and I’ll pay tens of thousands of dollars more. Wouldn’t it be nice?

But you have to make choices in life. After the story is told there, there is no need to cheat money by saying "water".

Moreover, my focus is on Tomato now, and I will focus on you.
Chapter completed!
