Chapter 557
"Report to the Crown Prince, Fan Shenyan, Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, asked for his meeting."
Cao Renli was doing his own work, but he still felt very distressed in his heart. His Royal Highness had not taken a sip of water for several hours, but he also knew that those people outside had serious things.
Especially the Ministry of Revenue, the production recovery in various parts of Jiangbei is related to the situation, so it cannot be delayed.
Fan Shenyan was the top scholar after Jiangnan resumed the scientific examination, and was also the Minister of Revenue appointed by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. It can be said that this guy has reached the top in one step.
According to the original rules of the Ming Dynasty, even if you are the top scholar in the Jin Dynasty, you can only start slowly from a seventh-rank small official. Now that you have been pointed to by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince as the Minister of Revenue, the entire Ming Dynasty is unique.
"Let him come in!"
Zhu Cixuan stood up and relaxed his body. He would go outside and chat later. If he was always in this room, his body would not be able to bear it.
The officials of the Ministry of Revenue are divided into the Minister of Revenue and the Minister of Revenue, but the Minister of Revenue are really old.
They basically don’t understand the new policy issued by His Highness the Crown Prince, so His Highness promoted a group of young people, who have now become the fresh blood of the Ministry of Revenue.
"Depending on your appearance, you should be short of money again, right?"
In the back garden of the Regent's Mansion, Zhu Cixuan met the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue. He came to Zhu Cixuan these days and there were more people asking for money. Originally, Zhu Cixuan thought that the Ministry of Revenue should be ranked first. After all, it takes a lot of money to restore production in the north. Unexpectedly, Fan Shenyan only came here now.
"Your Highness the Crown Prince is as expected. The three million taels of silver proposed last month are now about to bottom out. We control more and more land, and more farmers want to settle down and resume production. According to the court's lending policy, they must give them a certain foundation."
This policy was proposed by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. It is precisely because of this that the people can quickly resume production. However, this policy has one biggest disadvantage, that is, it spends too much money.
According to the current policy, as long as the people are willing to settle down in the local area, the court will give them at least half a year of food and also give them some agricultural utensils to help them resume production.
Of course, the court did not have this policy for anyone. Before handing over these people and materials, they had to investigate their background clearly. If they commit crimes, the court would never give them anything.
It is impossible to give you half a year at one time, including these rations. What if you sell them and go to other places, how can you recover these things?
Therefore, according to the court's policy, when farming begins, each person can receive rations for ten days each time, so that your credit points will gradually accumulate and increase your credit points. As long as your credit points increase to a certain amount, you can receive rations for one month each time.
This eliminates the idea that some lazy people want to take advantage of them.
"I have prepared it for you a long time ago. This is five million taels of silver for purchasing oxen and farm tools. In the warehouse south of the capital, enough food for 500,000 people to eat for a year is prepared. I will be allocated quickly. Resuming production is the top priority."
Education and restoration of production are the next mainstream, so Zhu Cilang will never be stingy in this regard, not to mention that Hou Fangyu transferred more than 10 million taels of silver to the court, and good steel should be used on the blade. Now Fan Shenyan’s work is the blade.
"Don't worry, according to the calculations of the empress, we will need to spend nearly 40 million taels of silver in the past year, but we will gain something next year. The people also know the difficulties of the court. They are very considerate of the difficulties of the court. They all say that they will collect the food and return the funds from the court first."
Fan Shenyan was a little thin during this period, mainly because most of his kung fu was spent in the fields.
Zhu Ciyang also felt relieved for the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue he found. If he had sat in the yamen every day, how could he do these things? How could he understand these things?
"The enthusiasm of the people is understandable, but we must do things according to the requirements set earlier and cannot make any talks casually. The people are now enthusiastic and are willing to return the food to us in advance. However, no one knows whether the future year will be good, so we should let them repay according to the prescribed share."
Zhu Cilang thought that the people of this era were too hard.
From Li Zicheng to the Qing people, especially the people in the north, they had never had a good life. Now that they have settled for the time being, they should make their own family first. Only when the people are rich can the country be rich.
"There are my husbands who follow the order."
Fan Shenyan actually had a question in his mind. Even though there are a lot of grain in the southern provinces of grain producing, the rice that we have basically made. Now we have white flour. What is going on?
Of course, he would not be able to find out the bottom line. Although he is the top scorer in the new subject, he still understands some basic common sense.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince doesn’t like others to ask so much. If you want to ruin your bright future, you can go to someone to investigate. However, if you can still be in this position after the investigation is completed, it is probably an unknown.
After doing these things, Zhu Cilang finally breathed a sigh of relief, waiting to solve Haoge, and then march into Liaodong.
As for Zuo Liangyu, after the court had this attitude, I believe they would understand that they could not follow the wrong path and could be solved soon, and the entire Ming Dynasty land would have an explanation.
But some things really don’t necessarily follow Zhu Cixuan’s idea. For example, at this time, the beacon tower in the north of the capital suddenly ignited.
"What's going on?"
From the palace, you can see the wolf smoke from the beacon tower in the north. Although Zhu Cilang traveled through modern times, he also knew that without any nervous things, it would never be possible to ignite the wolf smoke.
"Send someone to visit."
The Imperial Guard Commander Ye Quan immediately brought people to watch. Although this place was surrounded by Regent's Mansion, under such circumstances, everyone must go to their posts.
It was not just Zhu Ciyang who felt puzzled. The whole capital was wondering, what was going on? Are there any enemies in our north?
