503 Countermeasures

The most direct benefit from the robbery of the Confucius family in Qufu was the reconstruction of Dongjiang Town. Perhaps due to the manifestation of Emperor Taizu, the reconstruction of Dongjiang Town was extremely smooth.

Wu Sangui's cavalry and Zheng Zhilong's warships all gathered in Dengzhou. When the weather permitted, they crossed the sea and officially launched the Dongjiang Campaign.

After doing these things, Emperor Chongzhen felt a lot more relieved. On the Liaodong Jianlu side, it was a pincer attack from the east and west, and the situation of the Tianqi years was restored again.

After reorganizing the place, it is estimated that we can almost clean up the captives in Liaodong, liberate Liaodong, and then deal with the traitor North Korea!

And to rectify the place, the most critical thing is to rectify the Yingtian Mansion.

While he was thinking about it, Ma Shiying's secret performance had arrived. Of course, the secret performance of Dongchang Admiral Wang Dehua and Jinyiwei Commander Li Ruolian's secret performance, that is, the relationship between the front and rear feet, had arrived.

From the secret reports of the three of them, Emperor Chongzhen understood what happened in Nanjing from three angles.

He was very happy about this and the role that the video played, so he sent a video communication request to Liu Weichao.

As soon as Liu Weichao connected to the video, he smiled and asked: "What's wrong? Is it going to be the day when you hang yourself in your last life? Do you want to chat with me?"

"..." Emperor Chongzhen was speechless upon hearing this.

Of course, he was very concerned about this day in the original history when the country was destroyed and the family was destroyed, his wife and daughter were killed, and he hanged himself. He also expressed his feelings to Liu Weichao.

However, due to the video during this period, everything went smoothly and he forgot about it.

At this time, when he heard Liu Weichao mention it, he remembered that according to the information provided by Liu Weichao, on March 19, the 17th year of Chongzhen, he hanged himself on Jingshan Mountain. Before his death, he wrote in big words on his blue robe: "I

In the seventeenth year since I ascended the throne, even though I had bad virtues, bandits bowed down, and Heaven was angry with me, all my ministers misunderstood me, and the traitors came to the capital. When I died, I saw my ancestors lying faceless on the ground. I took off my crown and covered my face with my hair.

Let the thieves split my body, but do not harm any of the people."

Emperor Chongzhen remembered his last words clearly.

Being reminded like this by Liu Weichao, his good mood disappeared immediately.

His expression became serious, and he said to Liu Weichao: "Yes, I will unveil the museum and monument to the martyrs of the Ming Dynasty on this day to pay homage to the martyrs who died for the Ming Dynasty!"

What I didn’t say was that I also paid tribute to my original historical self and the Ming Dynasty!

At this moment, he felt even more than usual the value of loyal ministers and good generals!

Seeing him like this, Liu Weichao felt that he had made a mistake, so he quickly changed the subject and said: "Well, let me give you a suggestion, how to make some small money!"

Sure enough, when Emperor Chongzhen heard this, his eyes lit up and he immediately asked: "What is the source of the money? Tell me quickly!"

He directly ignored the word "small" mentioned by Liu Weichao. For him, as long as money comes, he is happy. Even now, he has just eaten and is not short of money, but he still cares about the amount of money.

Because he knows that the country is so big and has so much to do, so spending money will inevitably be like water. No matter how much money you have, it will never be enough. Especially now that we need to recuperate and recuperate, and everything is waiting to be done.

Seeing that he had diverted Emperor Chongzhen's attention, Liu Weichao smiled and said: "You mentioned the museum just now, and I remembered that there should be a lot of treasures in your palace, right? Also, you raided the Kong family in Qufu before.

, there should be a lot of treasures, such as antiques, calligraphy and paintings. You can also build a museum to store these things, and then open them to the people of the Ming Dynasty and charge admission tickets. On the one hand, people will learn a lot, and on the other hand, they can also generate some ticket income to maintain the museum.

Museum operations and stuff like that.”

In ancient times, there were no museums. Good things were collected by each family, and at most they could only be enjoyed by friends and the like.

However, Emperor Chongzhen had already accepted the concept of a museum when he wanted to build the Ming Dynasty Martyrs Museum. He listened again, pondered for a moment, nodded and said: "That's right, it's okay to leave it there, it's better to leave it there."

Come out and make some money!”

If it were any other emperor, if he heard this, he might just forget about it and hide his appreciation, instead of showing off his wealth to the world?

However, Emperor Chongzhen was afraid of poverty, so his thinking was different from that of ordinary people. If he put it in the palace, it would be a display; if he put it in a museum, it would be a display, and he could still collect money. Why not take the money?

So, he kept this matter in mind.

Afterwards, Emperor Chongzhen hurriedly told Liu Weichao something serious, so as not to lose track of where the conversation was going: "I just received a secret message from Nanjing, and I didn't expect that our video effect would actually generate additional income.

!”

"Oh?" Liu Weichao heard this and immediately smiled and said, "Haha, that's for sure!"

As you can imagine, the appearance of Emperor Taizu and the appearance of Confucius would be such a shock to the ancient people!

Emperor Chongzhen also smiled, and then continued: "Ma Shiying reported that after Di reported to Nanjing, there was a lot of trouble there, but suddenly it stopped, and then the place was reorganized and the investigation of hidden households became particularly smooth.

There's just one more problem. He didn't dare to make the decision, so he came to ask what I wanted."

"Oh, what is it?" Liu Weichao asked curiously upon hearing this.

After hearing this, Emperor Chongzhen introduced him: "The account books of Tianmu stored in Yingtian Mansion were destroyed by fire. Then I sent Jinyi guards from the capital to escort the account books of Tianmu to Nanjing. As a result, they encountered robbers on the Yangtze River and were killed.

The boat also sank in the Yangtze River. In other words, now that the account books of the fields in the south of the Yangtze River are gone, it is just a confusing account!"

At this point, he became a little angry. This thing was obviously done by the gentry from Jiangnan, but I don't know who did it?

Therefore, Emperor Chongzhen raised his voice a little and continued: "According to Wang Dehua and Li Ruolian's suggestions, we can directly count as many fields as we want for the local gentry, and the court has the final say!"

After a pause, he thought for a moment, and then expressed Ma Shiying's concerns: "But Ma Shiying believes that grain fields are the lifeblood of the people. If he acts like this, even if the army suppresses it and does not provoke a civil uprising, the local government will

Your Majesty will definitely be dissatisfied with the imperial court, which is not a good policy!"

At this point, Emperor Chongzhen asked Liu Weichao: "What do you think about this? At that time, did you have any historical experience that I could use for reference?"

From the tone of Emperor Chongzhen's words just now, Liu Weichao could tell that his suggestion to the factory guard was actually somewhat emotional.

However, he should also know that Ma Shiying's concerns really need to be considered, so he asked himself.

As for the experience of later generations, of course there is some, that is, dividing the land among local tycoons. However, this experience was not suitable for Chongzhen's time.

However, after all, he had watched too many movies and TV series and visited many forums. Regarding the situation of Emperor Chongzhen, Liu Weichao immediately came up with several countermeasures.

So, he smiled and said to Emperor Chongzhen: "There are several ways, it depends on which one you want to use!"

Emperor Chongzhen, at least on his own, couldn't think of a single solution. Unexpectedly, Liu Weichao had several solutions, which surprised him, and he immediately urged: "Come quickly!"

After hearing this, Liu Weichao smiled and said to him: "First of all, isn't there no land account book to check? Then you say that there is still one in the palace, and then you compile one yourself. It will be as much as you say, and then handle it accordingly.

, what can they say? This is called death without evidence!"

When Emperor Chongzhen heard this, he couldn't help but feel happy. In fact, this method was similar to the suggestion from the factory guard. The only difference was that the factory guard was reckless, but this method at least had a name.

Of course, if you want to say whether this method can convince the public, the local government will certainly not be convinced. Then they will definitely say that there is something wrong with the account book.

In addition, there is another problem. It is a very heavy workload to forge the land account book. After all, it involves so many people in the south of the Yangtze River, including names, number of households, land acres, etc. If you make it up, there will probably be a lot of flaws.

.Zhang San Li Si, the imperial court does not know where there is such and such.

Therefore, this countermeasure is possible in theory, but it is difficult to implement in practice.

Besides, this matter requires a lot of manpower, and there is no guarantee that the news will leak out. By then, it will also damage the prestige of the court.

To a certain extent, instead of doing this, it is better to be like the factory guards, who are obvious and at least not hypocritical.

Thinking of this, Emperor Chongzhen calmed down from his joy and asked Liu Weichao: "What else is there?"

When asked, he no longer had much hope. After all, this matter itself is difficult, and looking at the first method, it is only theoretically possible.

From Emperor Chongzhen's face, Liu Weichao could tell that he was not satisfied with his first proposal, and he couldn't help but secretly praise him: the former Emperor Chongzhen almost obeyed him; but now the Emperor Chongzhen has learned to think independently.

There has been progress!

With this in mind, he continued to say to Emperor Chongzhen: "I remember that at that time, people with a good reputation should be exempted from taxes and labor, rather than unlimited, right?"

"Of course!" Upon hearing this, Emperor Chongzhen replied matter-of-factly without thinking.

If only those with a good reputation are exempt from all taxes and labor, then where will the taxes come from from the imperial court? It will be a nightmare!

Just as he was thinking about this, his heart suddenly moved, and he guessed what Liu Weichao wanted to say.

Sure enough, Liu Weichao saw his expression and knew what he was thinking about, so he smiled and said, "Okay, you didn't even need to tell me, you just thought about it, right?"
