Chapter 770: God Killed
Zhu Gaosui was angry and hated, but he couldn't do anything at all. He endured his anger, clenched his fists, kept smiling, and said word by word: "What Huang Qing family said is very much. You are right. The Mu family is dedicated to the court. Therefore, whether it is Hao Fenglou or Mu Sheng, both of them must be specially approved and ordered, and let the cabinet draft it."
Immediately afterwards, he was unwilling to bother about this matter. For him, Hao Fenglou had become his festering scar. A little touch made him feel heartbroken.
He is now quite interested in collecting commercial taxes. In addition, he also practices military affairs. He has a lot of opposition to collecting commercial taxes. Neo-Confucianism is almost one-sided opposition. The reason is very simple. In these two capitals and thirteen provinces, ordinary people do not have the capital to do business. They are all entitled to the point where they are paid for business. If they are not satisfied, they may be killed. Therefore, in the Ming Dynasty, whenever they trade to a certain extent, the so-called merchants are not ordinary merchants. Behind them are the noble families, and behind them are the noble families, and behind the noble families are the nobles in the court. They are the scholars in the court and the scholars in the opposition, which are the officials, but rather they are officials. The taxes are collected over and over again, but they are actually received by everyone.
In the hometown of Jiangxi, in addition to land, there are many industries. Although these industries are not his own, most of them are from his relatives. His relatives do business under his name. Who dares to ask about the governments along the way? Who dares to make things difficult for the world? There is nothing his family can't do. Even if they sell private salt, what can they do? In this way, for the same transaction, ordinary merchants are eaten and cube-taking along the way, and they are made difficult. Once they offend people, they have to lose their money before they can get them out. The cost of their business is far higher than that of the relatives like Huanghuai, and the same piece of cloth. If the cost of the Huang family is one qian, your family will need three cents, and others will sell one qian and one qian. If you don't sell one qian and three cents, you will have to discount the bank. How can you compete?
The final result is that many Huang family members have destroyed all the real merchants, and their business is getting bigger and bigger and more prosperous. However, real merchants, except for some small profits in business, they are disdainful of their business, or they will lose their money.
So after all, this tax is on Huang Huai's head and is also on Hu Yan's head. How many people in this court are not involved? Even if there are people in the world who want to be Hai Rui, who is willing to be Hai Rui's relatives?
Zhu Gaosui had just come out of his mind, and never expected to encounter such a loud opposition. Even the people of Huanghuai around him were firm in their attitudes. Lai Jun also dissuaded Zhu Gaosui's approach. Lai Jun is now enlightened by one person. Although he was an orphan, he now recognized many relatives from somewhere. But these relatives have managed many tricks.
There are even rumors that some goods from Lang Son Bo and Lang Son were monopolized by several large families in the south. It is hard to say who these large families are. The Jinyiwei wanted to investigate, but after half of the investigation, he suddenly stopped and would rather fight for a crime of unfavorable work than continue to investigate.
Zhu Gaosui had no choice but to send a court discussion to discuss and continue to raise money and food for the new army. Seeing that Zhu Gaosui was determined and knew that if he did not take out some money and food, His Majesty would be afraid that his Majesty would have to deal with commercial taxes, so he was also concerned. After several court discussions, there were some results, and some surplus was made from the grain tax and losses.
However, Zhu Gaosui had a big appetite, so he finally chose the most commonly used method in history - the eunuch in custody.
These eunuchs in charge were released in the name of purchasing and other various other names, forming tools to attract money. This is also a way to increase the treasury, so this method can only be used.
Although the ministers also objected to this, given that Your Majesty wants to train troops, the target of the training is the Hao Family and Chen Xue Group, which are fighting against each other. As long as Your Majesty does not move to trade taxes, he can still recognize him with his nose.
After all, no matter how arrogant and domineering the eunuchs in charge, they still dare not make trouble on Tai Sui and dare to sway over them. The only ones who oppressed them were just ordinary people.
After a while of discussion, the new army's training has become clear. The fifth barracks have planned to use the new army's training methods, which are as many as 200,000 people. In addition, the border army began to use muskets on a large scale as early as the year of Yongle. The most difficult thing at the moment is not the practice, but the muskets. The court has built seven manufacturing bureaus to produce muskets, but the muskets produced seem to be far from what was ordered from the Hao family, not to mention that the Hao family's muskets were innovated and replaced by a batch of muskets every few days. Even those that were replaced were definitely not created by the imperial manufacturing bureau.
The imperial court imported a batch of muskets from Japan. It is said that the muskets from Japan were second-hand goods replaced by Lang Son. Such a buck was a third-hand product, and the price was high. As a result, many Western vassal states bought the obsolete products from the Hao family at high prices, and then changed to the Ming Dynasty. Zhu Gaosui bought them at a higher price at any cost. Even unused garbage in the Hao family could be sold at a good price. These silvers can be used to develop new muskets at any cost, and at the same time, they also had silver to equip the Lang Son army. After this struggle, Zhu Gaosui felt that something was wrong, but he had no choice. He could not understand why the manufacturing bureau was so useless.
In addition, he was a little dissatisfied with the training of Shenji Camp. The training of the other camps was quite good. For example, the border troops were far from that. They always fished for three days and had two days of drying the net. Some elite troops were barely able to watch, while others were even Lai Jun complained.
Although he was the governor of the Central Army, the relationship between the army was ultimately mixed. Unlike the Lang San army, who started from scratch and started from scratch since its establishment, the Ming Dynasty was full of horses, and Lai Jun could do whatever he wanted.
Therefore, Zhu Gaosui can only rely on time at the moment, hoping to use time to improve slowly.
After half an hour of the right report, Zhu Gaosui was already exhausted. Huang Huai took the opportunity to say, "Your Majesty, my ministers and others have surrendered. I heard..."
"What did you hear?"
Huang Huai smiled and said, "I heard that Your Majesty has not been to ask the Empress Dowager for a long time. I have died. These words should not be said. Your Majesty is diligent and loves the people, and is busy with all kinds of things. He is very hardworking for the country and country of our ancestors. However, there is nothing wrong with your Majesty occasionally visiting him." (To be continued...)
