Chapter 127 Opening Tianjin Port

 Smuggling is a felony.

Smuggling to the enemy is a serious crime against the Nine Tribes.

When the Ministry of Industry is involved in the rebellion, that is another major crime against the Nine Tribes.

Add it all together, it's absolutely doomed.

Everyone looked at Feng Sanyuan as if he were a dead dog.

Fang Congzhe, the chief assistant of the cabinet, stood up and said: "The Ming Dynasty has opened up business with Mongolia and Southeast Asia. The imperial court has always encouraged legal business and the operation of licensed commodities. However, smuggling arms and food is collaboration with the enemy. If this smuggling route is blocked, the Ministry of Industry will

There is also one less way out for corruption and reselling.

I believe that these two matters are one and the same, and I request His Royal Highness, the Supervisor of the State, to strictly supervise and investigate everything from rebellion and corruption in the Ministry of Industry to smuggling and collaborating with the enemy."

"Okay, I agree with the chief assistant's proposal."

Zhu Youxiao waved his hand, and Wei Zhongxian led the Tengxiang Four Guards to enter the scene and directly captured Feng Sanyuan who was lying on the ground.

"Feng Sanyuan can't go back. When other accomplices go back, don't forget to tell the people behind you that I'm coming."

Zhu Youxiao added something more, he was completely confident.

Why?

Because the rebellion in the capital is like fishing, pulling out a line and catching a pond of fish.

Donglin rebelled and led out the Yanguan; beat the Yanguan and abide by the Mohist rules; the Mohists took the lead and revived the pre-Qin Dynasty.

The Zheng family rebelled and brought out King Fu; deal with King Fu and reform the clan; the land of the clan is all in my hands.

The generals rebelled and were taken out of the capital camp; the redundant ones were eliminated and the best ones were selected; the Zhejiang soil made meritorious service and a new army was established.

The Ministry of Industry rebelled, bringing out the corrupt officials; tracking down the corrupt officials and smuggling arms; catching them all in one fell swoop and stabilizing Liaodong.

Zhu Youxiao had the opportunity to put an end to the rebellion before, but with so many benefits, how could he refuse~

This time we kill the smuggling gangs and severely attack the monopoly profiteers and spokesmen who collaborate with the enemy. Such actions are not to suppress commerce and handicraft industry, but will promote the legal development of commerce and handicraft industry.

Zhu Youxiao stood up, stretched out his arms and made a fist.

"I want to make one thing clear to everyone, that is, we must severely crack down on collaborators and profiteers, and we must encourage and support legitimate businessmen. Huang Shangshu talked to me about Xuan Da, the trilateral and Mongolian policies, and I learned a lot.

Huang Shangshu held the border for a long time and defeated the Mongols dozens of times, but he encouraged trade! He proposed to intimidate, restrain, educate, and manage the Mongolian tribes. He believed that border residents should be allowed to trade with each other and exchange what they had by buying and selling. Mongolian and Han border residents

Only if our livelihoods can be maintained will we not be desperate and commit chaos on a large scale.

Crack down on those irregular and friendly open border markets to facilitate trade between Han and Mongolia. With our Ming Dynasty’s economy, technology, and culture, Mongolia will become a part of the Ming Dynasty’s trade system. Over time, the other is declining and we are growing, Monan

Mongolia can also become part of our Ming Dynasty, and Mobei Mongolia will also be economically affiliated with us."

In fact, half of Zhu Youxiao's words were said by Huang Jiashan, and half were the political economics of later generations. Now it is said that they were all proposed by Huang Jiashan, which not only gave the ministers face, but also made the opponents focus on the ministers instead of themselves.

In short, you need to be politically sophisticated.

Let there be many friends and few enemies.

"I have decided to expand trade in Liaodong, expand the daily necessities of the people in Liaodong, and expand trade with Goryeo, Sauron, and Chahar Mongolia. Strictly restrict the smuggling of slaves, and implement strong defenses against the enemy.

Let Xiong Tingbi and the frontline generals rest assured that there will be food and land, there will be armor and weapons, and there will be victory and glory!"

"Your Highness, Holy Ming!"

In the second half of the morning court, it entered the stage of admiration from all the officials.

"I decided to open Tianjin Port. Tianjin has a canal in the west and a seaport in the east. It is backed by the capital and faces Liaodong. It is suitable to open a seaport to transport the Grand Canal and Beizhili materials to Liaodong for trade. With our people and our

Trade with friends, not with enemies. If the enemy wants... he can only surrender! Otherwise, there will be shotguns waiting."

After he said this, he started pacing again.

"When Tianjin opens a port, it is necessary to establish a Municipal Shipping Department. All shops in Ming Dynasty that are not smuggled or corrupt can register with the Tianjin Shipping Department. Because it involves the front line, the background must be clean, and the new East-West, South-North Factory and Jinyiwei must be involved to the end

, clean enough and legal enough, a lot of money is waiting for you to make.

Look, who dares to say that I am ruthless? Who says that I compete with the people for profit? Our Ming Dynasty is about to cheer up again. Just like the Longwan New Deal, those who have played a responsible role can eat meat, and those who follow the rules can drink soup.

,Those who rebel and collaborate with the enemy must be severely punished."

"Your Highness, Holy Ming!"

The chief assistant of the cabinet, Fang Congzhe, and the British Duke Zhang Weixian, this time praised Zhou Jiamo and Zhu Chunchen before Zhou Jiamo and Zhu Chunchen. They were not trying to stand out, but they were really excited to the point of tears.

Can you not be moved to tears? The Ming Dynasty's resurgence will begin when they, the chief civil and military officials, are in office. In the future, history books will definitely record their contributions, which is a beautiful thing that honors the ancestors.

Li Ruhua, the Minister of Household Affairs, was even more excited.

He knew the finances of the Ming Dynasty very well. Agricultural taxes were almost there, but commercial taxes were not collected enough. Taxation offices and tax collectors in various places had been collecting taxes from ordinary people, but from landlords and wealthy businessmen with high-ranking official backgrounds, that was during the Zhang Juzheng period.

Collect it...

Now, starting from the Tianjin Shipping Department, legal trade will be regulated. Of course, taxes will be collected when registering and doing business here. If you don’t pay taxes, you won’t be able to earn a lot of money from the north-south trade.

And there is precedent!

Longqing Switch opened a shipping company in Yuegang, Fujian. From then on, ships going to the East and Southeast Asia had to pay taxes, and everyone should pay taxes. This trade now gives hundreds of thousands of taels of tax silver to the court every year.

Tianjin follows Yuegang’s method, which is of course reasonable and compliant.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is wise.

The only hidden danger is whether there is grassroots power to implement it.

Of course.

His Highness reorganized the East Factory and Jinyiwei. I just mentioned the review of the East, West, South, North and Jinyiwei factories. This is of course necessary in the context of smuggling and collaborating with the enemy. However, the reputation of the East Factory and the West Factory of Chenghua Dynasty is not very good, and there are also Beichang and

Nanchang, he is a little worried.

Zhu Youxiao had a plan in mind.

In fact, the opening of Tianjin Port this time will definitely be an immediate success.

Because it unites the majority and isolates a few enemies.

Who is the biggest enemy of illegal smuggling traders?

Is it me? Is it the Sanfa Division? Is it an official from these landlords?

No, no, no, neither.

Their biggest enemies are businessmen operating legally.

As long as your background is clean, you can register with the Tianjin Shipping Bureau and then go to Liaodong to do business.

Let those smugglers see what it means to be greedy for a small amount of money and lose their money, career and life.

"By the way, the Tianjin Shipping Department needs funds, and our officials are not allowed to do business directly. However, if you introduce people who are proficient in foreign languages, proficient in sea routes, good at accounting, familiar with Korea, and aware of Japanese affairs to join the City Shipping Department, there will be special rewards."<

/p>

Civil and military officials once again praised the Tianjin Shipping Department.

"Your Highness, Holy Ming!"

The officials exclaimed, "This is what you call an emperor, this is your generosity."

Everyone can see that Tianjin will be prosperous with the opening of the port in the future.
