In fact, although the Ming Dynasty has a rare surplus in finance, Chongzhen's ambition is greater and he spends more money, and Lu Hanqiang also wants to take this opportunity to let Chongzhen do more things, for example, Lu Hanqiang simply wants the imperial court to directly mortgage the strictly controlled liquor monopoly and get a few million taels, so that Chongzhen can directly reduce the tax burden owed by the people in the northwest, and completely free the people in the northwest to settle down, but this was resolutely resisted by the conservative forces in Donglin.
The reason is that this is almost the last way to make money that the gentry behind Donglin can control, so in the end, Chongzhen still failed to reverse the outcome of the matter, and this method was finally denied by the imperial court.
For such a result, Lu Hanqiang could only sigh with admiration, he was not in the court, so he had no chance to fight face-to-face, and he could only give up.
Everyone in the world knows that the 12 million taels of silver before and after do not need to be repaid, in fact, now the shareholders of those banks are eager for the emperor not to repay the loan, and then, everyone will happily engage in sea trade, open mines, weave brocade and bake tea to make a lot of money.
In this way, Lu Hanqiang himself completely and almost solved Chongzhen's current financial crisis, think at the beginning, official corruption is one aspect, but the bankruptcy of the Ming Dynasty is the foundation of the country, when the financial bankruptcy, it is necessary to increase taxes, the most ridiculous of which is not Liao, but the training and salary, seeing this name makes everyone feel helpless, because the purpose of increasing the training and suppression is to exterminate the country's rogues, and how the liukou came out is because of the increase in the training and salary, this is not a paradox It's so weird, it's so strange that people can't say anything.
Now it's okay, anyway, I finally extinguished two of the three major levies, that is, the salary and the salary, and at the same time, the original Liao salary, but also because of his own appearance and did not levy, but also let Chongzhen reduce the northwest tax for three years, so that the people can recuperate, so that there is a virtuous circle in the Ming Dynasty, Lu Hanqiang completely braked the Ming chariot that rolled into the abyss, and began to turn around and move forward slowly on the road but after all, Zhongxing Daming, in the hands of Lu Hanqiang, this really began.
Then, now Lu Hanqiang can fight with Huang Taiji wholeheartedly.
Huang Taiji died down, he was recuperating and preparing to fight with himself again, in fact, he needed to recuperate more, and then fight with him, it depends on who can fight who can fight when the autumn horse is fat.
However, according to Lu Hanqiang's thoughts, that is, I can recuperate, but you can't, so finding a way to block Huang Taiji is what Lu Hanqiang wants to do most now.
Lu Hanqiang has a way to block Huang Taiji, but speaking of conscience, his strength is not enough at this time, the 50,000 troops recruited by Shanxi have not yet been in place, and now there are 40,000 people left to guard the four county seats, of which except for Beizhen, the other three places are very critical and need to be heavily guarded.
Montenegro faced the new people of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, Dalinghe faced the Panshan of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and Yixian faced the Mongolian Lin Dan Khan.
Now Lin Dan is still relatively unstable, and he must be guarded against.
Therefore, the three infantry columns under Lu Hanqiang were firmly tied to these three places.
Then there are only 15,000 cavalry left in his hand, and these 15,000 cavalry are Lu Hanqiang's treasures, and they can't move easily, Lu Hanqiang is definitely not arrogant enough to think that his cavalry can compete with Huang Taiji's cavalry, at this time, the overstretched strength is highlighted.
Now I can only wait for the 50,000 troops I recruited in Shanxi to arrive before taking action.
Since there is no military action, then Lu Hanqiang needs to work internal affairs and stabilize the areas he has occupied.
The request for the establishment of Liaoxi Mansion, Chongzhen readily approved, and also agreed to let Zhao Qiliang serve as the prefect of Liaoxi Mansion, the following four counties, Sun Chengzong and Lu Hanqiang jointly promoted the four county commanders, but the team of Liaoxi Mansion was taken by the personnel sent by the imperial court, of course, Lu Hanqiang still did some tricks and feet, and almost all the people sent were members of his own Lone Minister's Party.
Chongzhen also saw such a result, but he was noncommittal about Lu Hanqiang's move for the time being, or that sentence, he thought that Lu Hanqiang could not do any harm to his dynasty now.
Therefore, as long as Liaodong can be restored, he will do whatever he wants.
The construction of Huludao Port is being implemented step by step in accordance with Lu Hanqiang's plan, and now the port has begun to take shape, the construction of a warehouse area has been completed, and it has been rented out, the road planning has been ready, and commercial banks and banks have also been stationed, which has greatly facilitated the communication between the north and the south.
In this way, the merchants from the south began to invest here, which relieved Lu Hanqiang's great pressure economically, because the next step in the construction of Huludao Port does not need Lu Hanqiang's investment, but by these businessmen stationed in the city, at the same time, Lu Hanqiang also sold land and houses here, engaged in leasing and development, etc., etc., and collected a sum of money, this money is not a small amount, when Sun Chengzhong and Zu Dashou learned the amount of this money, Zu Dashou is jumping to regret, he regrets that he only received 10,000 taels of silver from Lu Hanqiang a year, This is simply the price of cabbage, but at this time it is too late to regret it, so I can only find a way to get some soup and water here.
Stretching out his hand to Lu Hanqiang, the first thing Zu Dashou did was that the land from Jinzhou to Shanhaiguan was still under my control, and I couldn't control you in Huludao Port, but when you left the port, I would set up a card, and all the materials passed through these road checkpoints, and you had to pay taxes to me, so this greatly touched Lu Hanqiang's interests.
When Zu Dashou set up checkpoints in various places seriously hindered business activities, Lu Hanqiang had to talk to Zu Dashou about it, so Lu Hanqiang personally ran to Shanhaiguan and asked Sun Chengzhong to match this matter in the middle, and Sun Chengzong felt that this matter could be done.
So the two of them came to Jinzhou, where Zu Dashou was stationed.
When the two came to Jinzhou, the main birthday was a warm performance to welcome the two people, and directly in their own flower hall banquet, now the ancestral birthday has been quite moisturized, the development of Huludao Port, not only to Zu Dashou's family to bring huge commercial profits, but also let Zu Dashou in various checkpoints, collected a lot of taxes, the original court arrears of those military salaries, although still in arrears, but although there are cuts in the future, but can be issued on time, but this no longer matters, the most nourishing thing for him is, Now I am sitting in Jinzhou, with Lu Hanqiang in front of me, and this has become the rear, unlike before, trembling every day, and I can't stop worrying. t1706231537:
