Alliance of the Heavens and Ming Dynasty

Chapter 302 I want to run away with money, but there is no door
"Your Majesty, is this move too general?"

A minister said softly that he was also a father and couldn't bear to let his son suffer in the army.

"What is generalization?"

Zhu Houzhao scolded angrily: "Could it be that recruiting soldiers can only recruit children from common people's families?"

"I know what you are thinking. It's natural to be eager to love your son, but loving your son is not the same as being a child."

"Don't you hear that habitual sons are like murdering sons. You let your children and grandchildren live happily outside, and you will cause trouble sooner or later. You all followed me all the way. You should know my temper. If your descendants commit crimes, I will never No mercy."

His tone softened, and he continued: "Instead of staying outside and doing nothing all day, it's better to go to the army to experience some experience, after all, you will make some progress."

"If you can protect future generations for a while, can you protect them for a lifetime?"

"It is true that the military is bitter, but it is also the place where people experience the most experience. Going to the army to practice and experience can become a pillar of the country in the future."

The ministers were speechless, Zhu Houzhao said all the good and bad words, what else could they do.

"Young men from all over the country serve in the military, which is unprecedented in history. Your majesty's ambition really makes the veterans admire."

"Just asking all young people to serve in the military may not be realistic. The children of officials and gentry, the descendants of nobles, there are many lawless people."

The words of Wang Qiong, Minister of the Ministry of War, highlighted a core point: fear of the children of officials and gentry, and the descendants of nobles and nobles would not obey discipline.

"Since he has entered the army, he is a recruit and should be treated equally. If anyone refuses to obey the discipline, he will be dealt with according to the military law."

Zhu Houzhao is extremely determined. Since he proposed that all young men in the country must serve in the military, he will not make changes easily.

"Everyone, the times have changed, and the situation is changing all the time. If we want to protect ourselves in the torrent, we must continue to strengthen ourselves."

"Strengthening the country and strengthening the species is not about us and other monarchs, it should be about all the people in the country, and it should be about the young people who are in the growth stage."

Standing up from the dragon chair all of a sudden, with great ambition in his chest, he poured out to the officials: "A young man is strong, the country is strong, and a young man is wise, the country is wise."

"I let young men enter the army to practice, not to target anyone, but to hope that I can take on important responsibilities towards the younger generation."

"If one day, I wait for the emperor and ministers to pass away, I will be able to maintain my glory in the younger generation."

"Your Majesty is ambitious, and the ministers are willing to follow."

The courtiers bowed to him, the emperor had the ambition of Kunpeng and the heart to talk about the situation, as his courtiers, there was no reason for them to object.

It is the wish of every courtier to keep his name down through the ages and leave his name in history books.

Let your sons and heirs enter the army to serve in the army, and you will pass the patience. If you don't go through polishing, how can you become a weapon.

Everyone hopes that their son will become a dragon, but standing at the height of the officials, they are more or less doting on their children.

"Your Majesty, which age group should be set for young men to serve in the military?"

Yang Tinghe asked.

"Above, below 22 years old!"

Zhu Houzhao thought about it, and said solemnly.

Those who are too young are not suitable, what can child soldiers do, but they are too old. His main purpose of expanding the army this time is to train the younger generation, and the older ones have no value in training.

Eighteen to 22, just right.

The ministers have no objection to this.

"Your Majesty, in recent days there have been many wealthy businessmen who have requested to move to other courts. There are quite a few of them. I ask Your Majesty to decide how to deal with them."

Zuo Liangchen, a member of the household department, played.

"I want to run away after making money, how can it be so cheap!"

Zhu Houzhao's eyes were cold. He knew better than anyone why those wealthy businessmen moved to other courts.

Businessmen are profit-seeking, stateless and homeless, and regard money as their lifeblood. Wanting their money is tantamount to killing them.

Since Zhu Houzhao's reforms and heavy taxes on merchants, many wealthy businessmen have long been very dissatisfied, but because Zhu Houzhao has been sending people to watch them, he dare not confront the court.

Now that the sixteen dynasties of the Ming Dynasty lived together, the other dynasties not only did not impose heavy taxes on businessmen, but also made it easier to evade taxes, so they all wanted to run to other dynasties.

Anyway, doing business to make money, making money in Zhu Houzhao's Taiwu Dynasty is no different from making money in other dynasties.

"It's fine to move to another dynasty, but the wealth earned in our dynasty must stay."

Zhu Houzhao said coldly.

He couldn't bear to make money on his land and spend it elsewhere.

"Your Majesty, I'm afraid this is inappropriate!"

Zuo Liangchen was stunned.

A large number of wealthy businessmen want to move away, shouldn't they be retained for a while, after all, the rich businessmen who are about to run away hold a lot of resources and wealth, and how many people rely on them to live.

It is too radical to confiscate other people's wealth if they disagree with each other.

"What's wrong?"

Zhu Houzhao's expression was indifferent, and he didn't care at all: "Since you don't want to be a subject of our dynasty, there is no reason to take our wealth."

"Come naked, go naked, just in line with the natural principles of heaven and earth."

Shit, the natural principles of heaven and earth!

The officials were speechless, the emperor was talking nonsense, and it was really a set pattern.

But they are also very happy in their hearts. Those wealthy businessmen have made a lot of wealth in this dynasty, and they want to run to other dynasties and transfer their wealth out. It's simply not too beautiful.

And they can be sure and sure that after those wealthy businessmen move to another dynasty, they will not give up their business in this dynasty.

After all, I have been operating in this dynasty for many years, and everything is perfect in terms of contacts, resource channels, and trading routes. If I give up rashly, I don’t know what I will lose. With the treachery and cunning of those wealthy businessmen, I will not let myself suffer.

In front of the subjects of other dynasties, earning the money and wealth of this dynasty, let alone Zhu Houzhao couldn't bear it, the officials couldn't bear it either.

If you want to run away after making money, there is no such thing as such a cheap thing, so don't think too much about it.

People can leave, but wealth must stay!
It is rare for the ministers to agree with Zhu Houzhao, and they all have no favors for those wealthy businessmen who are ready to run away.

"I think what your majesty said is very true. Since it is the wealth of our dynasty, how can we let it flow out."

Hubu Shangshu Wang Zuo said angrily.

Nowadays, most of the treasury's revenue comes from commercial taxes. When the merchants run away, the Ministry of Households will go to whom to collect taxes. What should the emperor do when he needs money?
Moreover, the income of the treasury is also related to the salaries of the officials, and no one wants to go back to the hard days of the past.

"The minister waits for the second opinion!"

The ministers shouted in unison, just one attitude, people can leave, but the money must stay.

He wanted to run away with the money, but there was no door.

"Then it's settled. All wealthy businessmen who want to move to another dynasty will be allowed to do so. For the sake of being subjects of our dynasty, they can even send ships to the place they want to move to."

"However, all the wealth must be kept, even a copper coin, and cannot be omitted."

Zhu Houzhao's words were full of ruthlessness and determination. The merchants were restless and played tricks with him, so he would let the merchants understand what is the wrath of thunder and what is the power of heaven.

Sing against him on his ground, when he has been quiet for a few years, he won't kill people, right?

　The fourth change is resumed today, and I hope that book friends can support it more.
