Chapter eighty-ninth
Qin II, who built the Great Wall, died, and Sui II, who built the canal.
The Yellow River flooded for decades in the Yuan Dynasty, and finally prepared to build the river. As a result, a stone man was dug out immediately. He gave a look of the stone man. This man rebelled when he broke out.
The immigrants of tens of millions, even if they were divided into thirty years, they didn’t know how much money they would cost to the court. I’m afraid it would be a bad thing, so I would drag down the court first.
So I feel more conservatively that I should stop trying. Maybe it will take longer to not torture...
This kind of thing is really normal!
······

"Hey, why has my divine growth increased so much?"
As Ningbei began to immigrate quietly, Zheng Xiaoming found that even his power of earth virtue was growing rapidly.
This made him feel quite strange at first, but when he thought about it carefully, he felt normal.
Only when this land in Ningbei is occupied by the people of Da Chu and reproduces again can it be considered to be truly owned by Da Chu...
Otherwise, it would be just a name... Maybe it will be lost again in a few years.
At the beginning of the founding of the country, Da Chu fought to the foot of Halaha Mountain and established the Jilidan River Guard.
But there was not so many people, and those empty garrisons could not hold on quickly and continued to shrink and die.
Therefore, only by filling in enough population can we truly digest the territory.
This is why immigration can allow Zheng Xiaoming to earn a lot of money on earth.
This also made Zheng Xiaoming's cultivation even more rapid. Now, Zheng Xiaoming's soul has grown to nearly one meter high.
Ordinary people need to nourish themselves for at least tens of hundred years to cultivate their souls to this extent, but Zheng Xiaoming was able to do it in just three years.
Moreover, Zheng Xiaoming believes that in three years, his soul will be able to be completely nourished, and then the soul will be perfected and he will be completely entered into the realm of the true soul of the soul.
Of course, cultivation is cultivation, and supernatural powers are supernatural powers.
Zheng Xiaoming practiced the Nine-Turn Golden Body Technique. When he cultivated the Golden Pill, he had already completed the five-turn practice of the Golden Body Technique.
When the elixir was broken into an infant, he completed the sixth golden body practice.
Now, as long as Zheng Xiaoming's Yuanying grows into a primordial spirit, he will be able to break through the seventh turn!
If this continues, it will only take three years at most.
However, at this time, I encountered trouble.
"Mr. I have no money!"
Zheng Xiaoming's chief aide Yang Pingzhi came to the door directly.
"Is there no money so soon?" Zheng Xiaoming was surprised.
Yang Pingzhi was worried that Zheng Xiaoming had spent too much, so he couldn't help but explain, saying, "Mr. Maleman, it's not too much to spend on thirteen taels per person. This includes travel expenses, seed expenses, farm tools expenses, etc.
Moreover, the newly opened fields will not have any good harvests at least in the first three years. In these three years, the government will need to provide seeds, farm tools, plow oxen, etc.!"
Zheng Xiaoming waved his hand: "Of course I know this!"
In fact, he also knew that half of the thirteen taels of silver could be used for those immigrant people.
The other money was probably overrun by the officials who were responsible for the greed.
But there is no way. This kind of thing cannot be solved by modern Dachu, and it is even more impossible to solve it at this time.
If those officials are not fed, who will do his job?
"This month, 7323 people have been immigrated, including 5671 young and strong, and the rest are women and children. According to the cost of thirteen taels per person... it is 95,238 taels of silver, nearly 100,000 taels.
The annual military expenditure of our Ningbei Governor's Office is more than 2.37 million yuan. We need to raise soldiers and build cities, and at most, more than 300,000 taels will be deducted from it a year.
In addition, if we do some small business ourselves, we can subsidize more than 200,000 taels..."
Yang Pingzhi made a random calculation for Zheng Xiaoming, and he could think about how big the deficit was.
Zheng Xiaoming interrupted the other party's chatter: "If you immigrate less than 100,000 yuan a year, can't you hold on?"
But he had actually been mentally prepared for a long time and asked, "What did the court say? How much funding is given?"
Yang Pingzhi said: "The court promised to grant us 500,000 yuan a year, but it was too late this year. The Ministry of Revenue lived within its means and arranged all the money needed to be spent as early as the year, and at this time, we couldn't afford it.
We will have to wait next year to get the money... and the money is said to be 500,000, and it would be great if we can get 400,000!"
After all, Yang Pingzhi said this, in short, he has no money! And the money is still much worse.
Zheng Xiaoming wants to expand the scale and move 30,000 people to Ningbei in a month, which will cost about 400,000 in a month.
With the income of Ningbei Governor's Office, such a large-scale operation cannot be supported by any means.
In fact, let’s not just talk about the Ningbei Governor’s Office, even if the entire court is fully supporting it, it will be very difficult.
Thirty thousand people are moved a month, and 360,000 people are moved a year, which is four or five million taels of silver.
How much does Dachu have annual fiscal revenue?
If it is not considered a miscellaneous food, there are only so many.
Unless the court has no other expenses, how can we afford such a large sum of money?
Of course, if all kinds of messy material taxes such as food are included, then at least there will be more than 10 million taels of silver.
But even so, I can't bear such a huge expense.
This is also the most important reason why so many people in the court oppose Zheng Xiaoming’s plan!
"Master, I heard you said last time that there seems to be a way to get money. In this situation, you should also talk about how to get money!"
Zheng Xiaoming smiled slightly when he heard this: "Yes, it's time to find a way to get money!"
He looked west of Mount Halaha.
Yang Pingzhi followed Zheng Xiaoming for no reason for a while, and suddenly realized it, and his face changed color: "Master, are you going to take the initiative to launch troops against the Yadis?"
Because the direction west of Mount Halaha is the territory of the Yadis.
Zheng Xiaoming smiled: "That's right! Who made the Yadis rich!"
There are two solutions to shortage of money, one is to make money by yourself, and the other is of course to grab money.
And of course the fastest way to get money is to grab it!
Yang Pingzhi's face changed color and he hurriedly said, "You can't be a general, you must not start the border quarrel easily... Otherwise, you will have no merits..."
As soon as he said this, an emergency military newspaper came: "President Commander, the Yadis people attacked Guyu Town. Guyu Town is in an emergency! The court asked us to find a way to restrain the Yadis people and share the pressure of Guyu Town!"
Zheng Xiaoming asked: "Is the situation in Guyu Town very dangerous?"
Guyu Town is also one of the important towns on the nine sides, but it is thousands of miles away from Ningbei and is in the northwest direction.
If the situation was not critical, Ningbei would not have to find a way to restrain the Yadis people!
