Emperor Ming Dynasty

In terms of money, in addition to the Ministry of Internal Affairs, another major source of internal funds is the Yamen of the General Administration of Customs.

Walking on two legs will not be hijacked.

Compared with the chaos of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, which is easily affected by other factors, the General Administration of Customs has been collecting taxes steadily.

In the first half of this year alone, the eight major customs have handed over 400 million silver dollars, which is expected to exceed 800 million a year.

Such a huge income has long exceeded the annual income of 300 million yuan, becoming the largest cash flow.

Of course, this is also too heavy a tax, which is basically based on ten taxes and three, which has increased several times compared to the previous tax, but it is all exported and sold, and no one will buy it.

We Spaniards have plenty of money.

It can be expected that this kind of business can be done for at least 200 years.

It is precisely because of this that Zhu Yixi gave up the banknote customs and salt tax to the imperial court. It is impossible to take all the money-making things into the inner court.

In fact, customs is also a kind of banknote customs, and no one said anything when he took it into his arms, but it looked too ugly.

The inside and the outside are integrated, if the imperial court relies on the inner court appropriation, wouldn't it mean that the emperor supports hundreds of officials?Then why do you want this court?

Based on the prosperity of the customs, Zhu Yixi even abolished the income of one million yuan from Jinhuayin (converted grain into silver), and devoted himself to the customs.

Throughout the dynasties, basically at the end of the dynasty, they could not escape financial bankruptcy, but the Manchu Qing was different, relying on customs revenue, the income increased every year.

The British controlled the customs. Although there were many shortcomings, they gave the Manchus huge income, and even relied on customs revenue to control local power.

The potential of customs is limitless.

Porcelain and silk in this era have a price and no market. Even though the West has learned the technology later, people are not happy with it at their doorstep, and they like the mystery from the East.

For example, in the city of Chahanhot at this time, following the surrender of the Chahar tribe and the stationing of Sun Changzhou, the governor of Xuanda, all the tribes stayed quietly.

"Now that the Great Khan is in the hands of the Ming people, does the Chahar tribe really want to surrender to the Ming people?"

"Didn't we surrender to the Manchus before? There is no difference between the Ming people and the Manchus."

"Furthermore, didn't the Duoyan Tribes also follow the Ming people in the past, and didn't they also grow stronger and free later?"

The Chahar tribe is just like other Mongolian tribes. Apart from being under the flagpole of the Golden Family together, the aristocratic autonomy is still implemented internally.

Taijis, big and small, were arguing, splitting it apart, everyone is the blood of the Jin family, nothing more than the concubine and the concubine.

But among this group of people, Budali, who is only 20 years old, has the highest prestige.

There is no him, but he is the younger brother of Lin Dan Khan, the son of Niantutaiji, and his bloodline is the closest to the four-year-old Great Khan Burni.

After Abu Nai's death, Sun Changzhou relied on the sweat to control the people, but he couldn't manage them directly, so he could only rely on these nobles.

Although the 20-year-old Budari has little power, relying on his blood and the support of the Ming army, he soon became the three giants of Chahar.

The other two are Taiji, Battelle, and Arslen.

The three of them temporarily borrowed the authority of the Great Khan and took charge of the entire Chahar tribe.

After arguing, none of them convinced anyone.

It turned out that recently, as Horqin's left and right wings were hit repeatedly, the leisurely Chahar Department immediately realized the crisis.

Although they didn't admit it, the use value of the Chahar Department was constantly decreasing.

Even though they formed Wanqi, cooperated with Sun Changzhou to patrol various places, and confronted the Khalkha Mongolian tribes, they still did not reassure the Ming people.

Early this morning, Sun Changzhou immediately threw out the trick of restoring the old system.

The Chahar tribe is Mongolian orthodox, and only by restoring the system of the Genghis Khan period can it truly show off its might.

And what was the system in the Mongolian period?

Military and civilian integration.

To be more specific, it is to cancel the tribe, and based on hundreds or thousands of households, form an organization that is both military and civilian, so as to obey the call of the royal court and quickly join the army.

And those hundreds of households and thousands of households are the people Genghis Khan trusts most, thus eliminating the tribal barriers to the greatest extent and gathering strength.

It was only later that the Mongol Empire collapsed, and everything went back to the old way.

In Suiyuan Province, it is more detailed, and the tribes are divided into three classes, hundred households (about two hundred), sub-thousand households (three hundred to five hundred households), and thousand households.

It can be said that this is the centralization of the grassland version.

The biggest victims are these big auspicious people.

"When the news spread, the eyeballs of those wolf cubs glistened, and they wished they could become hundreds or thousands of households tomorrow."

"This is digging our flesh and slapping our bones. If we can't deal with it well, people's hearts will be separated in a few days."

Battelle took a sip of the wine, the gold rings on his ears were dangling, his eyes were wide open, and he gasped and said,
This is really a conspiracy, a treacherous scheme.

Turn their tribes into hundreds of households, large and small, and their heirs and generals will be in charge.

It seems that the strength has not changed, but once the hearts of the people are scattered, they will not gather into fists.

"What should we big fortune-tellers do? I have two thousand accounts under my hand, so I can't be a thousand households, right?"

Thinking of those coveted sons in his own family, Battelle felt a headache.

The bastard is easy to arrange, but the first son will not give up, after all, only one person can inherit the position.

Now, these guys are only thinking of partnering to divide his tribe, they are not filial at all, they don't know how to avoid people, and the integrity is trembling in their ears.

Als was thinner, his hair was thicker, and his eyes were full of thoughts: "Although we didn't say it, we are different from those little Taijis. We should make arrangements."

"You mean, this is a temptation for us?"

Balter narrowed his eyes and said suddenly.

Boulli, who was on the side, watched the two of them talking, but couldn't intervene, so he could only say casually: "It should be."

"It's meaningless to talk about grassland."

Burni touched the satin dress on his body, and the golden silk embroidered cloud soft leather boots on his feet, with a jade ring on his waist, not to mention how comfortable it is:
"Chahanhot has nothing, why don't you give us an official title, a title, and how happy it is to go to Beijing."

Battelle and Als looked at each other blankly, then shook their heads.

This young man was completely corrupted by Ming people.

But they changed their minds and looked at their robes.

The sapphire blue cloud brocade satin, embroidered with auspicious clouds and beasts, is soft, close-fitting and comfortable to wear.

There is no shortage of tea and salt for daily consumption, and you can also buy silk, pearl and agate. These days are much happier than in the past.

"Or, just accept it!" Barter said in a deep voice: "We say it's Taiji, looking at the prestige, it's not as comfortable as a businessman."

"If there is a white disaster on the grassland, you have to work hard to find the grassland. Beware of others calling, it is better to vote for Ming people."

"What about the sweat?"

"A four-year-old kid who knows a lot."

The three of them murmured together and decided to sell the Chahar Ministry for a good price.
