Geng Jingming knew very well that he was poking a hornet's nest. Once the implementation was successful, he would cut a piece of fat from the place, and it would be strange if he did not rebound from the place. But this was undoubtedly in the interests of His Majesty and the interests of the court.

The cap tax is fixed, and the land tax cannot be fake. What can be done in the local area is tax and commercial tax. The high liquidity of commercial funds is too easy to write in.

Geng Jingming could imagine that this policy would begin to be implemented, even if it was more practical, he would usher in a wave of rush. Because according to convention, as long as the pilot is started, it means that the emperor has basically agreed to this policy. Once the pilot is successful, it will be fully rolled out. So at that time, they will definitely try their best to obstruct, not only from the policy, but also launch personal attacks on themselves.

I was not clean in my past.

The emperor must be happy to see that it was accomplished, the chief assistant Quan Yun must be in harmony with it again, Fang Dazhi of the Ministry of Personnel is definitely against the tune, Zhang Xiaozheng of the Ministry of War will not interfere with political affairs, and the skillful hands of the Ministry of Works will definitely support him firmly. The huge projects in his hands are poor money, and of course he is happy to see more money in the treasury. Old man Xiao of the Ministry of Rites has no position, but in the past two years, he has been asking his grandfather to sue his grandmother and seek money everywhere. He only needs a small promise to make him his capable ally. Although he is the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue,

But it is obvious that Su Kairong and His Majesty want to correct him. He would definitely be happy to give himself a favor to the future Minister of Revenue. At that time, if he relaxed his hands a little, he would be able to eat and drink enough for the Ministry of Rites. Besides, giving money to Old Man Xiao to run a school is also a serious matter. Old Man Tang of the Ministry of Justice has the lowest status among the six ministries, but he has worked hard in the past two years and has done a lot of things quietly. At that time, there are many places to rely on his power, so he has to sell his favors in advance. Those people may not have realized Old Man Tang's energy yet.

When this matter is done, I will be the Minister of Revenue and there will be no disputes anymore.

Geng Jingming was the most successful businessman in the Ming Dynasty. In just a short time, he started from scratch, became the richest guy in the Ming Dynasty, and became a legend in the business world. In the business world, he had proved himself. In politics, he was not what he wanted most, but since the emperor took a fancy to him and forced himself to come, then it would be enough not to do it. If he wanted to do it, of course he had to do it to the best.

Geng Jingming looked up at the emperor.

The emperor is about the same age as himself, and this is a legendary figure. More importantly, he has the grace of tolerance and courage to use others. Following him, he may not only become a legend in the business world, but also a star in the political world.

"What are you thinking?" Seeing Geng Jingming being distracted, Qin Feng couldn't help but be curious. It was really rare for people who were distracted in front of him to think of others.

"Oh, Your Majesty, I am thinking about the sea trade." Geng Jingming suddenly came to his senses.

"Hai Trade? Is it still eyeing this tax?" Qin Feng frowned, "I am going to use this for a special navy. You also know that the navy is a big money-spending business, whether it is a ship or a soldier."

"Your Majesty, when you promised the Maritime Department, the Maritime Department had just opened. There was nothing to be done, and the court had nothing to subsidize them. This was why this policy was created. But now it is very different. The so-called one time, another time, the policy should be changed according to the actual situation so as not to lag behind the times!" Geng Jingming shook his head.

"Then tell me, this one time and another, right?" Qin Feng said.

"Yes, Your Majesty. First of all, the scale of the Maritime Administration has expanded dramatically. After Zhou returned, we have three fleets. Our current urgent task is not to expand at sea. The current scale is enough for us to maintain a huge advantage at sea. Therefore, the Maritime Administration no longer needs to manufacture so many warships every year, and maintain a stable growth. So we can now focus more on the manufacturing of civilian merchant ships, which is huge profits. Secondly, General Ning led the fleet to attack Manila. If nothing unexpected happens, we will have a fixed port in Manila, which also means that we will completely control this sea area, and the sea trade will usher in explosive growth, and the profits here are even more important. I am secretly myself.

It was estimated that the annual net income of the Maritime Agency would exceed tens of millions of taels. As long as the navy did not build warships on a large scale, the military expenditure of two million taels per year would be enough. The money would only get moldy when placed in the maritime agency's account, but the imperial court could do more things when it was taken back. Third, Ning Zeyuan on the navy is mainly the main one, and the Zhou family's joining has become another force. I am not saying what will happen to General Ning, but it is inevitable to be biased, and it is normal for human nature, and it is not conducive to the unity of the navy. Therefore, the navy's account must be clear. Third, the imperial court has a clear order, and the government and military separation. The Maritime Agency was an exception at that time. It was both an exception. After getting on the right track, of course, it was necessary to make the trouble correct. This is not only responsible for the court, but also for General Ning."

"I think quite far and comprehensively!" Qin Feng laughed.

"Your Majesty, the central government controls local governments, one is people, and the other is wealth. Now our Ming Dynasty has basically abolished the recommendation system, and replaced it with the examination and selection system, the central dispatch system, and local governments have basically accepted this model, but in terms of financial power, the court's constraints on local governments are too relaxed. Therefore, the minister believes that the financial power must be gradually taken back to the central government and then transferred to the central government to pay. In this way, the court must only firmly control personnel and financial power, and the disaster of the vassal states in the late Tang Dynasty will not appear in the Ming Dynasty." Geng Jingming talked happily.

"Geng Jingming." Qin Feng knocked on the table, "Eat one bite at a time, and Ruth took one step at a time, and if he took too wide, he would fall. Your ideas cannot be wrong, but they are in a hurry. You have just taken the new position and your policies are too radical and it is easy to get rid of bad things. This is very unfavorable to you. Su Kairong and I have high hopes for you. I don't want to see you break your wings halfway."

"Will Your Majesty look at me?" Geng Jingming asked back in a daze.

Qin Feng smiled and did not directly answer Geng Jingming's words, "If you do business, you can take odd steps, fight wars, and use strange plans, but you must do political work steadily and openly. You can balance the interests of all parties to move forward steadily. I already know what you said, when Ning Zeyuan comes back, you can contact him first and talk about it. In my opinion, there will be no problem with Ning Zeyuan, but the generals under his command will definitely have opinions. Regarding the issue of financial power, after the Battle of Yongdu is over, you can pilot it in Shayang. If it succeeds, it can naturally be promoted, but if it fails, you will know the consequences."

Geng Jingming was stunned, but nodded: "I understand, I will definitely do him well."

"Okay, it's better to be quiet but not move in the near future. Let's focus on the battle of Yongdu first."

"I obey the order!" Geng Jingming stood up and said goodbye.

Geng Jingming left with great energy, but Qin Feng fell into deep thought. Geng Jingming said that the central government controls the local area, one is human and the other is wealth. Wang Hou turned white and tried his best to take the personnel and affairs step by step to the central government. Now it is indeed time to collect wealth, but this is undoubtedly a more difficult thing.

After years of administration, Qin Feng had already transformed from the passionate young man of the past to a mature politician. He knew the first thing to do was to balance the interests of all parties. Every reform would touch the vested interests. Thinking about the difficulties that Wang Hou encountered when he reformed the administration, he could imagine the problems that Geng Mingming would encounter in the future.

Wang Hou is old, but Geng Jingming is a newcomer. When people deal with him, they have no worries. He really doesn't want such a good guy to be really broken halfway. Shayang is not that easy to deal with. Geng Jingming chose the most difficult one for himself at the beginning.

Or he did it on purpose, and if he really wanted to conquer Shayang, then everything would be smooth sailing. Or at that time, he could quietly help him a little, for example, adjust a few officials?

In short, this is a thing that is not easy to do and good. This is different from battlefields and hostility, which can be solved with blood and fire. To put it bluntly, this matter is an internal power struggle, a game between the central and local governments.

There are naturally people behind Geng Jingming. The time point for this matter was very sophisticated. After the Battle of Yongdu, the Ming Dynasty completely annexed Qin. At this time, the prestige of the court would reach its peak, and the newly incorporated territory had not yet been fully formed. At this time, the local financial power could be taken back to the central government. Then, the arrangement of Qin would be smooth and effortless. If it could not be resolved at this time, as the territory became larger and the county governing area became more and more, the opposition would be louder and the matter would be more difficult to handle.

The one who can see this is probably not just Geng Jingming, or the initiator, but Su Kairong, who is determined to step down quickly.

This old fox!

Qin Feng snorted in his heart. Su Kairong had extremely rich political experience. He had already seen that the court must take action on finances next, so he hurriedly wanted to escape and pushed Geng Jingming, the newborn tiger, to do this so that he could successfully escape.

"I think beautifully!" Qin Feng gritted his teeth and said, "If you want to pick yourself out, do you have to depend on whether I agree? Su Kairong's experience in this struggle is not comparable to that of Geng Jingming, the first brother in politics. He will have to put him in this car at that time. If there is any problem, he must let this old fox take over, otherwise he will not be able to make a desperate effort."
