098 Politics (6)
The advice provided by Chen Bangyan has both pros and cons. The garrison has become a stubborn disease, like a lice on a bald head, and everyone can see it. Zhu Youlang also knows it, but because of the involvement of hereditary generals, school officials, local tyrants and even government officials, Zhu Youlang has always turned a blind eye before.?
This time, in order to alleviate the pressure of the severance branch, if it is really implemented, it is very likely to be boycotted by hereditary generals and local tyrants in the military households.
Fortunately, although there are many prefectures and counties here in Guangxi, their power is far less than that in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Southern Zhili areas.
In the Jiangsu and Zhejiang areas, Donglin is extremely powerful. The disciples and Jinshi, classmates and friends, and the deep-rooted relationships will be affected by the whole body. The emperor will not be in their eyes. If the trouble is too big, the consequences will be unimaginable.
This is not the case in Guangxi. First, education and culture are backward, and cultural fortunes are far inferior to those in Jiangnan. There has not been a large family of officials and gentry who have passed the Jinshi and even over the fifth generation, and it is difficult to form a huge force that can make a promise.
Second, the terrain is remote, there are many chieftains, and the chieftains are also very powerful, and they can even coerce prefectures and counties, which have great restrictions on the gentry and tyrants and tyrants, so they are not like Jiangnan. When the gentry calls for a hundred promises, the government cannot control them.
The vassal system was corrupt and well-official, and only the people who made profits from it were only some local tyrants, evil gentry and hereditary generals in Guangxi. They had no say in the court and had weak political power. The military fields of the vassal system in Qing Dynasty, and the pursuit of money and grain could only be considered rectification, and the vassal system was not abolished.
Starting from this, the scope of the attack is also fixed. There are not many civil and military ministers involved, and the interests of most people are not damaged. Therefore, the rebound should not be too large. Zhu Youlang decided to give it a try.
As for Chen Bangyan's third suggestion, Zhu Youlang can only say that the heroes have similar views. Making money in maritime trade is no longer a secret for people nowadays, especially in the coastal areas of Guangdong, since the sea ban was relaxed, gentry and merchants have continuously purchased sea ships, smuggled raw silk, tea, porcelain and other goods, and have an affair with foreign countries, making huge wealth.
The pirate Zheng Zhilong earned hundreds of millions of taels of silver a year by collecting protection fees alone; his son Zheng Chenggong relied on the benefits of maritime trade and raised 100,000 troops. Not only did he successfully recover Taiwan, but he also had the strength to fight several Northern Expeditions and became the consular enemy of the Qing court; the 13 Guangdong corpses relied on monopolizing maritime trade and were all rich enough to rival the country, and their family capital was hundreds of millions of dollars. A glimpse of the leopard of the pipe shows how great the interests of maritime trade are.
If one day of the Ming Dynasty, if we can reap the benefits of maritime trade, we will have enough money and food to support our soldiers, sort out the national affairs, and we will no longer have any worries about the great cause of reviving. It is no vain to drive out the Tartars and restore the country.
Moreover, Zhu Youlang not only had to open sea trade, but also had to add cash gates to collect commercial taxes at all prefectures directly under the central government.
Chaoguan, also known as Shangguan, was established in the Ming Dynasty because of the collection of treasure money, and later evolved into Shangguan. It was mostly set up based on rivers with busy transportation, and the ones near the sea were called customs.
The gentry and merchants in the Ming Dynasty were rich and tax evasion became popular. Now that the country is so difficult, how can we let it go?
After a long time, Zhu Youlang finally spoke: "My dear words made me suddenly understand. The court was short of money and restoring major events cost a lot. If there were no extraordinary means, it would be difficult to solve the crisis. These three strategies were taken in a different way and used properly, which should solve the urgent needs of the court."
The more I thought about it, the more excited he became, and couldn't help laughing happily. After the laughter stopped, his expression still couldn't hide his excitement. He stood up and walked to Chen Bangyan, held his hand, and shouted: "Xianqing, I know that you will not let my expectations down! This time, Chen was deeply in line with my heart. It can be seen that I have a deep knowledge of the world and a long-term vision, and it is not inferior to Zhang Taiyue (Zhang Juzheng) in the past. With the talent of Wang Zuo, I have your assistance, so why worry about the unfairness in the world?"
When Chen Bangyan heard this, his thin face turned red: "I was lucky enough to be loved by the emperor. As long as there is a breath, I will do my best to serve Your Majesty!"
Zhu Youlang nodded with praise, turned around and returned to the desk, took a piece of rice paper, and immediately wrote four well-regarded words "Loyal Xu Guo" with a pen in the elephant pen. After lifting the paper and blowing it dry, he walked to Chen Bangyan and said solemnly: "Loyal Xu Guo, a pure minister of heaven and earth, I hope you will never let my heart down."
Chen Bangyan choked and replied, "I'm grateful!" Tears blew out of the corners of his eyes, and a burst of soreness and heat surged in his chest, so he couldn't say a word.
He knelt on his knees, stretched out his trembling hands, raised them high, and wanted to take the rice paper with the words "Loyalty Xu Guo". Unexpectedly, Zhu Youlang leaned over and picked him up, handed Bao Mo to his hand, and said, "You are now a doctor in the fifth-rank Ministry of War."
Chen Bangyan was about to reply, but Zhu Youlang had already returned to his original seat and shouted: "Now I will be awarded the title of Right Minister of the Third-rank Ministry of War, and will be the Assistant Censor of the Censorate of the Censorate of Guangxi, and will be the governor of military affairs and also manage food and money. I hope that the wise minister will follow Zhuge Wuhou and assist me in the great cause together!"
"Your Majesty!" Chen Bangyan could no longer hold back and burst into tears: "Your Majesty loves me so much, I can only devote myself to my own efforts and die to repay Your Majesty's great grace!"
