Chongzhen did not speak, and the dissatisfaction in his heart was already manifested on his face.

With a gloomy face, Chongzhen pointed at the ministers.

"Why object?"

"Is it hindering you from abolishing the agricultural tax and making the people a better life?"

Shoufu Wen Tiren was shocked in his heart.

Stand up, want to say, but the brain is still in shock.

"Your Majesty, you must not do it."

"Our empire is all supported by agricultural taxes, what do you take to raise so many officials and soldiers and horses by abolishing agricultural taxes?"

Li Banghua stood up, his eyes were unusually sincere.

"Your Majesty, the minister seconded!"

"Without the agricultural tax, where do we get the money?"

"Without money, how to raise soldiers, how to raise these officials?"

Scholar Fan Jingwen also stood up and vigorously defended: "Your Majesty, the agricultural tax is the foundation of the Daming nation, can't you abolish the agricultural tax on a whim!" "

Zodiac stood sideways.

"Your Majesty, family affairs are not child's play!"

"Abolish agricultural taxes, unprecedented in eternity!"

Chongzhen knew in his heart that the entire Daming officials' salaries were distributed by the agricultural taxes paid by the people.

Only the silver is silver that is distributed directly.

But you can copy rice, you can copy flour, you can copy silver.

This annual gift to officials can be distributed directly with rice or flour.

Silver can also be copied and distributed to soldiers.

And distributing rice to officials without exacerbating inflation is a perfect solution.

Bang~~~

Chongzhen slapped the armrest of the dragon chair heavily.

"It's all quiet."

Instantly, there was no sound above the court.

The ministers stared at Chongzhen with sincere eyes.

"Dear Aiqing, it is imperative to abolish the agricultural tax! Your servants and the salaries and silver of your soldiers have their own methods, and they are indispensable to yours. "

"Scholar Fan, Xu arranged for you to recruit young adults, do you want to start?"

"Your Majesty, the minister has arranged for his subordinates to draw up a notice, and it is estimated that the notice has been posted at this time."

Chongzhen was very satisfied in his heart.

"The question of abolishing the agricultural tax was thus decided."

"Now I'm going to see the scene of recruiting soldiers and horses."

The ministers were all stunned.

Aren't we against?

His Majesty actually decided directly?

So what's the point of this meeting?

The ministers are messy.

In a moment, Chongzhen had already left the palace.

The ministers are in the council hall, you look at me, I look at you, for a long time can not be calm.

"The abolition of the agricultural tax was decided so vaguely?" , Shoufu Wen Tiren spread his hands, looking helpless.

", hell! Isn't this fooling around, Your Majesty? Hube Shangshu kept wiping the sweat on his forehead.

Walk around!!

"Go and see Your Majesty, why does he have to recruit 30,000 soldiers and horses again?"

Li Banghua urged the ministers around him, wanting to see what the Chongzhen Emperor was going to do?

The ministers formed skirts and walked towards the place where the Jingshi posted the notice.

Jingshi is particularly lively today.

Ao Bai took a few Eight Flags warriors and wandered around to collect intelligence.

Seeing that the place where the notice was posted was once again full of people, they surrounded curiously.

"This reader, may I ask what is written on this notice?"

A show in a long robe pointed to the notice.

"Your Majesty wants to recruit troops to recruit young and strong people aged 18 to 26, and I heard that the Great Tomorrow Guard Army will be formed!"

Ao Bai's eyes widened and he stared at Xiucai with a hellish expression.

"It can't be! I heard that the emperor had no money in his internal funds, and the treasury was also exhausted, where could he get the money to recruit 30,000 soldiers and horses? "

Xiucai shook his head and pointed to the notice.

"I'm not done yet!"

"The recruited young and strong are paid five taels of silver a month, and they manage three meals a day, eggs for breakfast, large white rice at noon and evening, and enough meat and vegetables."

What?

How can it be?

Our Qing Emperor only had two meals a day.

This Daming recruited soldiers and horses eat three meals a day, and the big white rice and meat dishes are enough?

Is this still the Daming I know?

Several Eight Flags warriors who followed behind Ao Bai listened to Xiucai read the notice, and their envious eyes looked at the place where soldiers and horses were recruited.

"Hey, what's going on with you guys?"

Several Eight Flags warriors from the bitter cold land of Liaodong still did not come to their senses.

"Snap~"

Ao Bai slapped his subordinates hard.

The Eight Flags warrior covering his face came back to his senses.

"Baturu, it's shocking."

"This treatment is better than the life of our Qing emperor."

Ao Bai was very ashamed, as the Baturu of the Great Qing, he could be regarded as the nobleman of the Great Qing.

In this bitter cold land of eastern Liaoning, large white rice is a rare thing, and it can only be eaten energy-saving during the New Year.

Usually, it is brown rice, and there are so many impurities that it is difficult to swallow.

"Be quiet, be careful with Jin Yiwei!"

"Don't envy, in the future, we can also live such a life."

When Ao Bai said this, he felt a little lost in his heart.

Daming is really his mother's wealth.

It's really too rich.

Today's trip to Daming is really insightful.

"Your Majesty drove to ~"

Wang Chengen shouted at the top of his throat.

Jinyiwei stood on both sides of the street.

The people consciously stood on both sides of the street, constantly cheering to Chongzhen passing by.

Odd.

Since the abolition of the three payrolls, the people have become more enthusiastic about themselves.

It seems that this people really have a pole in their hearts.

Chongzhen waved his hand to greet the people on the side of the road.

Ao Bai carefully looked at Chongzhen passing by, and his heart became more and more shocked.

Mother, the emperor of Daming is too grand.

Our Qing Emperor's Luan drive is really inferior.

Ao Bai thought in his heart, and several Eight Flags warriors behind him unconsciously knelt on the ground.

"What are you doing?"

"Baturu, the temperament of the Son of Heaven is completely different, much stronger than the emperor temperament of our Daqing, and we completely kneel unconsciously."

Ao Bai couldn't help it, in order not to storm the identity, he also knelt down.

"Let's all be flat!"

When they came to the place where the soldiers and horses were recruited, the people surrounded them.

"Your Majesty, is this recruitment treatment real?"

"Really, if you recruit the Son of Heaven Guard, will you still have to deduct your salary and food?"

Hearing Chongzhen's words, the uneasiness in the hearts of the surrounding people instantly disappeared.

"I'm going to join the army!"

"I'm going to join the army too!"

"Count me in!"

"I'm a Dongjiang veteran, count me in."

The people who lined up to join the army in an instant had already crowded the surrounding streets.

Chongzhen didn't expect it at all, and with the guarantee of his own words, he let the enthusiasm of the young and strong people in the Beijing Division to join the army ignited.

Some refugees who fled were not allowed to enter the Jingshi Division.

There is no wayfinder, so you can only wait for death outside the city.

Chongzhen knew that recruiting 30,000 soldiers and horses was far from enough.

Outside Jingshi City, there are still many refugees.

It is better to recruit the young and strong among the refugees than to join the peasant army.
