Zhu Youxiao said: "I have also thought about this method, but it is not appropriate.
It seems that the imperial court is taking advantage of not mining.
In fact, the imperial court does not have the ability to mine so many minerals, and this method will not work." " Li Zhizao usually did not speak in court, but today he came out and said: "Your Majesty, I have a way to solve this problem."
Zhu Youxiao was overjoyed.
Li Zhizao was an extremely prudent person.
He would not have spoken out unless he thought over and over again that the method was feasible, so he said, "Li Qing, tell me quickly."
Li Zhizao said: "Your Majesty, first of all, you can decree that all the minerals in the world are owned by the emperor.
This makes it clear that the ownership of the minerals lies with the imperial court.
Then he decrees that the emperor has mercy on the people of the world and allows them to mine minerals in various mountains and swamps.
However, for To avoid disputes between individuals, anyone who wants to mine must register with the taxation bureaus of various states and counties and pay a deed tax that varies depending on the size of the registered area and the type of minerals. " Zhu Youxiao felt strange, how is this different from before?
Isn't it the same?
But he knew Li Zhizao's character and didn't say anything.
However, Li Zhizao stopped talking as if waiting for him to ask questions.
Then seeing that the emperor was silent, he had to continue: "As for those who have already paid the deed tax, the tax department will return it to him and then pay it again, because this time The deed tax is different from the original one, so a problem arises.
It’s like there are many people in the same place who want to mine, and they are all willing to pay the deed tax.
So how to choose?
I think there is a way, called Those who have more can get it.
Even if several of them want to mine, they can add money to the fixed deed tax amount.
Whoever adds more can obtain the mining right.
Then it will be noted on the deed tax that if the court needs it one day, then it will be granted.
The deed tax and investment can be returned, and about 20% of the compensation can be given.
In this way, the court can take back the mine at any time when needed, and the miner will not suffer losses and still make a profit.
Zhu Youxiao thought, it turned out to be an auction.
People in this era are really smart.
As for marking it on the deed, it is indeed a good way to solve the problem that Chen Xiu encountered last time.
So he said: "Li Qing's method is very good, it does not disturb the people, and it can take back the mineral rights when the court urgently needs it.
Bi Qing, please discuss among yourselves how to set the deed tax amount according to the area and type of minerals, and how to ensure that the mine owners will not exceed Proposed area , which minerals must be in the hands of the imperial court, these have been discussed, and then a list will be given to me, and it will be implemented nationwide after it is confirmed.
In addition, the mining tax was originally set at 50%.
I think it is not good, so I have to follow it.
Category re-taxation."
Bi Ziyan naturally agreed hastily.
Then came the second question, Zhu Youxiao said: "It has been stipulated in the laws of the Ming Dynasty that officials above the fourth rank are not allowed to do business.
It is true that the ministers are not doing business, but someone in their own family members may be doing business.
Of course, my family members are doing business."
The laws of the Ming Dynasty cannot control it , but I think everyone knows whether my family borrowed the power from you when doing business.
I have no intention of digging up old scores, but from today on, if there is any collusion between officials and businessmen, or cases of borrowing officials to do business, then it will be treated as such.
Corruption is the way to go."
The laws of the Ming Dynasty stipulated that those who embezzled sixty taels of skinned grass were used less often now, but beheading was still unavoidable.
Most of the officials in the court have relatives who are in business.
Zhu Youxiao also knew that he would issue an imperial edict, and everyone suddenly realized that this possibility did not exist.
It is impossible to ban all this now, so it is just It is pointed out that collusion between government and businessmen and the use of officials to do business should be taken slowly in the future.
"From now on, any official's vehicle or ship must be inspected when passing through the currency customs.
If there is any official who carries goods without filing a tax return, he will be dismissed from his post and his home will be searched.
The same will be done for the homes of princes and nobles.
Tomorrow I will find out how to publish it in the official newspaper and the weekly newspaper. " Lu Qin and the others were coming back.

In order to welcome the southwestern Guards Army back to the capital, Zhu Youxiao organized a grand welcome ceremony.
The Guards troops marching into the city were the first to display two large banners.
One side read "Pincidate the Southwest" and the other side read "Promote our Hanwei".
The Guardsmen, in bright uniforms and in good spirits, passed through the north gate.
On the way to Gongji City, the shops everywhere were closed, and pedestrians focused on both sides of the street to watch the majestic appearance of the son of the Han family.
From time to time, he handed the fruits, cooked eggs, etc. to the Guards soldiers.
The soldiers did not dare to stop and pushed away as they walked.
Pedestrians were sure to block the way, so they had no choice but to shout loudly: "I, the soldiers of the Han family, will not touch a blade of grass or a tree from the people, nor will I take a needle or thread from the people."
In the Ming Dynasty, soldiers were actually very different from bandits, and people generally hid whenever they could.
But now that the Guards actually shouted such slogans, the people were surprised and couldn't help but look at them differently.
Although many people were called to welcome them by the boss, Satsumasa, etc., they had some new understandings of the Guards at this time.
They are soldiers of my Han family.
They protect my Han'er and fight against rebels. , which is different from the previous soldiers.
The hearts of the people were touched, and at this moment someone naturally started to take the lead in shouting slogans: "Well done to the Guards" and "Long live the Guards".
When the people saw someone shouting "Long Live the Guards", the Jin Yiwei next to them didn't stop them, so they naturally started shouting too.
As a result, more and more people shouted, the voices became louder and louder, and the slogans kept changing.
By the time they got near the imperial city, it had become "The Emperor's Holy Ming, Long Live the Emperor."
The emperor personally greeted them at the Gongji City Campus.
Lu Qin was so excited that tears burst down his face, and he subconsciously wanted to kneel on the ground.
Zhou Yuji pulled him back before he could react.
He straightened his back, took two steps forward, walked ten steps in front of the emperor, saluted with a military salute, and shouted loudly: "Your Majesty, my deputy general Lu Qin reported to our emperor that the southwestern unit of the Guards has returned victoriously.
I would like to congratulate the Holy Spirit and congratulate the Ming Dynasty."
Zhu Youxiao returned a military salute, then raised his right hand to the sky and said: "Everything is for China, everything is for Ming Dynasty."
Lu Qin replied loudly: "Everything is for China, everything is for Ming Dynasty, everything is for the Holy One."
The original slogan was All for the Ming Dynasty, but Zhu Youxiao felt that what he wanted to build was a modern national army, so he changed the slogan.
All the soldiers shouted together: "Everything is for China, everything is for Ming Dynasty, everything is for the Holy One."
Zhu Youxiao said: "Mere barbarians dare to resist the heavenly soldiers.
I have the most heroic soldiers in China and will definitely annihilate them.
Chen Tangzhi said, today we must remember that those who openly offend our Han Dynasty will be punished now, no matter how far away they are.
A group of barbarians occupy our Liaodong and kill our people, which is unbearable.
I order my heroic guards to go to Liaodong to rescue the Chinese people and punish the shameless slaves."
All the soldiers shouted together: "Ten thousand victories, ten thousand victories, ten thousand victories":
