After many twists and turns, some people were beheaded and abandoned, some were promoted, some were dismissed, and some were laughed at.

For Gan Sheng Dynasty, the heads of just a few dozen people are not worth mentioning, but one thing that is certain is that the "Wind of Subduing Demons" will no longer be seen in the Central Plains. All of this is the result of the solemnity of Emperor Gan Sheng's holy heart and the shattering of the Gan Rank.

Of course, the Ming Dynasty must get used to such a "sacred heart".

Sitting on the dragon throne, Zhu Guoqiang's spirit seemed very exhausted. "Sacred Heart Apologetic" requires a certain price, but some things always need to be experienced and done by themselves.

Just like now, when Zhang Huangyan was transferred to the governor of Huguang, as the emperor, he had to meet him.

Zhu Guoqiang has always attached great importance to Zhang Huangyan, otherwise he would not have been allowed to serve as the governor of Huguang. After all, Huguang is a major province second only to Nanzhi.

"Zhang Qing's family, you are going to work in Huguang tomorrow, but what do you think?"

Facing His Majesty's inquiry, Zhang Huangyan thought for a while and said.

"Report to Your Majesty, in the past two years, I have been considering the method of "integrating Ding Mu" in the court. In the past, the land in the Ming Dynasty was not clear. Even though last year, the land in the Ming Dynasty had been cleared, I wanted to try the "integrating Ding Mu" there after I arrived in Huguang. However, I thought again that Huguang is a major financial source for the court and cannot make it mess. However, in recent years, hundreds of thousands of people have moved overseas every year? In my opinion, if the "integration Ding Mu" is not implemented, the local Ding Yin will inevitably become increasingly deficit. This is not a long-term solution, so I think that "integration Ding Mu" is inevitable and must be implemented!"

The so-called "integration of diligent and acres" is actually "spreading acres into acres". In fact, as early as the early years of Gansheng, Zhu Guoqiang considered implementing "spreading acres into acres", but at that time, the country started the project, and there was neither an accurate number of land nor acres. It is naturally unrealistic to promote "spreading acres into acres". After all, the core of "spreading acres" is to first master the "number of diligent" and "number of land", and then "there are scattered and acres can be invested". Otherwise, the so-called "spreading acres into acres" will not only not reduce the burden on the people, but will only increase the burden.

Therefore, in the past decade, the court has been "checking the land and verifying the "Dingkou". Now it only needs to be rated for a certain year, such as the "Dingkou" in the thirteenth year of the Gansheng period, and then spread the silver in the county as a unit of the head of the people, so as to reduce the personal burden. At the same time, the land tax, corvee and miscellaneous taxes are merged, and they are mixed together to spread it to the whole people through very complex calculations. This practice must be numerous problems, but it is more advanced than the large households evading the labor of the people, and at least it can give the poor people a breath.

Of course, these are all fake!

In fact, Zhang Huangyan did not mention reducing the burden on the people at all, and even Zhu Guoqiang did not mention it, and

To reduce the burden on the people by spreading the stakes into the mu is itself a "false proposition". What is the biggest benefit of "selling the stakes into the mu"?

This has improved the stability of taxes and avoided the reduction in tax bases caused by land annexation in all dynasties. As for how much the people have to bear, it is not within the scope of the ruling class. Moreover, any policy has advantages and disadvantages. It is necessary for landlords to transfer land rent. Just like a worker who works in a factory, the factory owner will pay various taxes out of his own pocket? It must be deducted from the labor value of the workers.

Just like the landlord in the 21st century, after collecting property tax, the first thing the landlord does is to "increase the rent". Will the landlord pay the "property tax" out of his own pocket? The landlord won't do that, and the landlords will do the same.

While the Qing Dynasty promoted the "spending mints to earn acre", it also publicly claimed that "there is no rent, where does the tax come from?" and encouraged landlords to rent more. In some places, they even rented 80% more, completely and completely stood on the side of the landlord class. The so-called "spending mints to earn acre" harms the interests of landlords is just a fairy tale made up by the "miles". What is really suffering is the vast number of tenants under the landlord class.

However, even so, the implementation of this policy will inevitably cause a rebound from the gentry and landlords at the beginning, which is also the reason why Zhang Huangyan is worried about chaos.

Moreover, the Ming Dynasty was different from the Qing Dynasty, and the Ming Dynasty had vast overseas colonies!

What is the result of landlords' rent increase?

More tenant farmers will leave the Ming Dynasty! Therefore, in essence, the Qing Dynasty's "spending acres to acres" would only increase the burden on the people, while Zhu Guoqiang's implementation of "spending acres to acres" would only increase the burden on the landlords. What's more painful than adding taxes after adding rent but not adding it, and not daring to add it.

Of course, this is also the reason for implementing "spending resident to earn a mu". The implementation of "spending resident to earn a mu" is not a kind of "moral government", but just to change the collection method for the stability of fiscal revenue. For the Qing Dynasty, they thought that "there are poor people in the world but no poor land" and that is "slightly equal to the land". For the Ming Dynasty, in order to avoid the loss of overseas tax sources due to the migration of a large number of people, they must be "slightly equal to the land".

As for the "moral politics" that only coaxes three-year-old children, but the problem is that many people actually believe it.

Just like many people believe that "property tax" can curb housing prices, and believe that the landlord class has a conscience and that after the distribution of the stakes is made, the landlords will not pass on the costs and rent them to the tenant farmers.

But the question is... When did the landlord class have ever had a conscience?

"trouble……"

After pondering for a moment, he smiled.

"Do not be afraid of something wrong when doing things. After arriving in Huguang, you just do it boldly. This matter. If you do it well, I will promote it nationwide. If something happens, I will support you and will never let you get over it."

As he said something to support him, Zhu Guoqiang's eyes flashed and he said with a smile:

"But you are right. Huguang is the important place for the country's financial resources. No matter what, troubles cannot be allowed there. Things must be done, troubles can be made, but I don't believe that troubles can still occur in the Ming Dynasty!"

The world of the Ming Dynasty was in chaos!

Zhu Guoqiang has extremely conceited confidence in this regard because the army is on his side!

In fact, the so-called "benevolent monarchs and loving the people" have always been false. A qualified monarch will inevitably be transcendent to various factions, be able to control and balance the forces of various factions, leverage their strengths to make the political forces of various factions in a state of mutual balance and mutual restraint, so as to jointly ensure the stability of the central court.

A qualified monarch will never become the spokesperson of any political faction. No matter how you make a decision, you must give people the feeling that "the monarch is always good, and the bad is always minister." This is the highest requirement for the monarch's ability. In this way, even if you make a mistake in your decision, you will not let your anger be directed towards you.

As for "benevolence and loving the people"... it is a false appearance. The emperor's first consideration is never "water", but how to catch more fish from the water. This is the essence of water and boats. As for "carrying boats" and "overturning boats", it is just a superficial relationship.

Of course, this does not prevent the disguise of "spending the stakes into the acres" as "moral politics", and this disguise will inevitably arouse opposition from the "landlord class". After all, more or less, they will always suffer some losses.

"Your Majesty, what you say is very..."

Zhang Huangyan answered quickly.

Afterwards, Zhu Guoqiang talked a lot with Zhang Huangyan, and generally speaking, they were about how to promote the "spending acres" in Huguang.

At the end, looking at Zhang Huangyan, Zhu Guoqiang emphasized again:

"After arriving in Huguang, just do your business boldly, and I will be there! Okay, you go down."

As an emperor, you must support your ministers, especially those who dare to do things. Why did no one dare to do things in the end during the Chongzhen Dynasty? To put it bluntly, it was because the emperor had too many concerns. Sometimes he didn't even support his ministers, and even used his ministers as scapegoats. Do you think that if an emperor like this would do things seriously for him?

But with Zhu Guoqiang, the ministers did not need to worry about this at all. The emperor would definitely support them, even if they did something wrong, they would laugh it off. As for offending people when doing things, it wouldn't matter.

I am here! How reassuring is this sentence?
