million!

Zhu Youxiao admitted that when he saw this number, he could no longer describe his feelings as surprised.

How much land does your imperial estate have? Eighty thousand hectares.

Eight million acres.

His imperial estate together is less than one-tenth of the land that these bastards hide.

"So much land?"

Zhu Youxiao gritted his teeth and looked at the frightened Zhu Chunchen: "Okay, that's great. These generals are really courageous!"

"Your Majesty!" Zhu Chunchen swallowed hard: "This, this is only the land hidden in Shandong and the capital area. I'm afraid there will be more in other areas!"

Zhang Haogu on the side also added: "Your Majesty, the capital and Shandong are relatively good. In the past three years, the imperial court has been implementing the system of sharing grains and paying grain to the gentry. If this was in Jiangnan, I'm afraid it would still have to be done.

More serious!"

It is now the sixth year of Tianqi.

The situation this year is quite good. You must know that it was the second year of Tianqi when Zhang Haogu just traveled through time. The amount of land hidden in the entire north was also an extremely terrifying figure.

Although there is no strict statistics, it is just a slight estimate. At that time, the land that could be cultivated in the Ming Dynasty and the land that could be used for tax collection would definitely not exceed four million hectares nationwide.

These lands were needed to maintain the court's expenses, maintain the court's use of troops in Liaodong, and finally suppress Xu Hongru's rebellion in Shandong.

However, these four years have been tormented by Zhang Haogu.

The land available for taxation in Shandong and the capital has directly increased by nearly two million hectares, part of which is land reclamation, and the largest part is that Zhang Haogu forced these gentry and landlords to spit out the land.

Especially the Kong family.

Kong Yinzhi definitely paid his respects to Zhang Haogu's eighteen generations of ancestors, and divided up so much of his family's land. However, facing Zhang Haogu, who had military power and power, the Kong family really had no temper at all.

Relying on the New Deal on one hand and the New Army on the other, Zhang Haogu finally managed to win the situation. However, even so, these generals still hid nearly one million hectares of land.

The Ming Dynasty's garrison system prepared a large amount of land in order to raise troops well. However, who would have thought that in the end, it started to become distorted little by little, and little by little it became what it is now.

"Your Majesty!" Zhang Haogu bowed slightly and said, "What should we do next?"

"I'm here to draw up an imperial edict!"

Zhu Youxiao slowly said: "Specially assigned to the Jinyiwei Yamen in the capital and Shandong, so that they can cooperate with the government officials to complete the task of clearing the land. As for these generals who have embezzled the land, there is no need to be polite. Once identified, they will be killed on the spot.

Kill!"

Kill on the spot

These four simple words were so murderous that even Zhu Chunchen, who was kneeling on the ground, felt suffocated.

Now Zhu Youxiao is really showing more and more signs of returning to his ancestors.

From the time he was an official, he has now begun to take action against these hereditary generals. Step by step, his methods have become more and more mature.

"Your Majesty, Sheng Ming!" Zhu Chunchen said tremblingly.

Zhu Youxiao laughed. He looked at Zhu Chunchen and said, "Mr. Cheng, I will leave this matter to you. As long as these hereditary generals are found out, you don't have to be polite. You will execute them!"

"

"I come!"

Zhu Chunchen's child suddenly shrank violently. He also knew very well that this Zhu Youxiao wanted to put himself on the front line, he wanted to torture himself to death, and he wanted to make himself offend others.

"Why, you don't want to?" Zhu Youxiao turned around and looked at Zhu Chunchen, with a bright smile on his face: "If you don't want to, then don't force it, I will arrange for someone else to do it!

"I, I am willing!" Zhu Chunchen said with sweating profusely: "I am willing, I am willing!"

A smile appeared on Zhu Youxiao's face, and he slowly said: "Mr. Cheng, please investigate carefully and persevere. Don't let me down, don't let the people of the world down!"

"Yes! Yes! Yes!" Zhu Chunchen said tremblingly: "I will not let the emperor down!"

"Get down!"

Zhu Youxiao waved his hand casually.

After Zhu Chunchen left, Zhu Youxiao said viciously: "Dog officer!"

Zhang Haogu stood there for a moment, but smiled and said: "Your Majesty, I have discovered that the Emperor and Grandpa Taizu are more and more alike. Thinking about it, the Emperor will definitely be able to create an unparalleled world like Grandpa Taizu."

Merit!"

"If Grand Ancestor saw these dog officials, I'm afraid he would kill their whole family!" Zhu Youxiao was still angry and said in a dark voice: "I just feel that I am too homely.

Even though I’m kind, I still feel like I haven’t killed enough!”

Zhang Haogu just smiled: "The Emperor and the world will only get better and better under the Emperor's governance. Now, all the people in the world, without exception, who does not truly admire the Emperor?"

"Really?" Zhu Youxiao laughed: "Master, where do you think I rank among the emperors of the past?"

"If the emperor can annihilate Liaodong, defeat Mongolia, and open sea routes, the emperor's great achievements will only be inferior to that of Emperor Cheng Zuwen!" Zhang Haogu said with a smile.

"Really?" Zhu Youxiao couldn't help but burst into laughter.

"Of course, if you really build a steam engine, you will be the first emperor in history, the first emperor to start the industrial era with your own hands!" Zhang Haogu muttered in his heart, but the smile on his face was

It became more and more intense: "Your Majesty, don't look at how the ministers evaluate you, but look at how the people evaluate you. After a thousand years, history will give the Emperor a fair evaluation!"

"That makes sense!" Zhu Youxiao nodded again.

Hejianfu

"You guys, what are you going to do? I'm Qianhu here. Wang Qiang, you're crazy!" Liu Qianhu was tied up.

"Liu Qianhu, the court has said that your land is not your land, but the land of the imperial guard. You have occupied the land of the guard and treated us as slaves. Now the emperor Shengming wants you to take this guard's land.

Give us back the land we have!"

Wang Qiang said loudly: "This land no longer belongs to you, but to the imperial court, and the imperial court wants to give it to us!"

"Wang Qiang, you are talking nonsense, this land is obviously mine!" Liu Qianhu said angrily: "You are guilty of the following, and you deserve to die!"

Snapped!

Wang Qiang slapped Liu Qianhu hard and said coldly: "Liu Chang, you are not allowed to be presumptuous here!"

"You!" Liu Chang was extremely furious. Soon, he was brought to the front of the Jin Yiwei, and then someone spread out the imperial edict and started reading it.

Liu Chang embezzled national land and deserved death. He was killed on the spot. All his family members were sent to labor camps for good reform through labor!

Then, a Jin Yiwei took out a short musket and shot Liu Chang directly.
