This kind of thing is not only unseen, but also unheard of.

No emperor has ever done this before.

Even Bi Ziyan, Minister of the Household Department, was shocked for a moment, but Chongzhen walked down the platform step by step, and the words continued to linger in the ears of the officials:

"All the income from Huangzhuang, shops, etc. since I succeeded Datong, together with all the land and Huangzhuang income under the name of my original Xinwangfu, will be transferred to the Ministry of Households. Wang Chengen."

"The minister is here!" Wang Chengen, who was standing by the side, immediately bent down to obey.

"After going to court, hand over to Shangshu to ensure that everything in the inner treasury is filled into the treasury of the Ministry of Households."

"The minister obeys the order!"

A series of words fell, but the entire group of officials in the court reacted completely, and fell to their knees on the ground with a crash.

"His Majesty!!!"

However, all the people opened their mouths but didn't know what to say. It wasn't that they hated less when the books were used up, but that they really didn't know what to say...

However, the group of ministers did not distinguish between north and south, east and west at this moment, and all of them felt hot for a moment, and their eyes were bright and red when they looked at Chongzhen.

They have only seen the ancient sages in books, but at this moment they have seen it with their own eyes from Chongzhen.

Chongzhen is the emperor!

How many such emperors have there been throughout the ages?

How many people can there be!

All of a sudden, all the officials in Fengtian Hall trembled excitedly, looking at Chongzhen with fanaticism.

With such a Majesty, why should the world be troubled!

Daming will surely last another thousand years!

Bi Ziyan, Minister of the Household Department, bowed his hands solemnly and bowed down: "I will live up to your Majesty's trust!"

However, Bi Ziyan was always the Minister of the Household Department, and he knew well about the Huangzhuang and caravans owned by Chongzhen, and understood that Chongzhen actually didn't have much money.

It took only two and a half years for Chongzhen to inherit the orthodoxy of Ming Dynasty.

In two and a half years, even if he didn't spend money like Emperor Tianqi, he would not exceed 20 taels of silver at most.

Huangzhuang everywhere is making money, but natural disasters do not distinguish between regions, and some Huangzhuang may even have no harvest.

Even with the income from Prince Xin's Mansion, the maximum is 25 taels.

25 taels!

This is enough to pay more than one hundred thousand troops in Liaodong for more than a month, and after being allocated to the hands, it may not even be able to buy a stone of rice under the current market conditions.

Immediately, although Bi Ziyan knew that speaking at this moment was extremely distasteful, but as the Minister of the Household Department, he had to say:

"Your Majesty, even if the internal government treasury is enriched with the household treasury, it will not help at all."

Although these words sounded like pouring cold water on them, the other six ministers were not surprised at all.

"not enough?"

Chongzhen frowned, knowing the result in his heart, but he wasn't joking either.

Immediately, Chongzhen continued without hesitation:

"In the future, all the expenses related to me in the palace will be reduced. I will not eat more than four meals a day, and the selection of beautiful women to enter the palace will be suspended. The palace ladies of the right age will be given travel expenses, and some of them will be dismissed!"

As soon as the words fell, the officials were shocked.

"His Majesty!!"

In the sound of clattering, everyone in Fengtian Palace, including the guards and maids, fell to their knees on the ground.

At this moment, everyone looked at the shocked expression on Chongzhen's face.

The shouts of the ministers directly resounded through the entire Fengtian Hall.

"Your Majesty, absolutely not! This is the foundation of shaking the country!"

"Your Majesty, please take it back! The show girls must not stop filling the harem."

"His Majesty!!"

The officials tried their best to persuade them hoarsely, but Chongzhen was unmoved, with a determined face.

Some decisions, once made, are absolutely impossible to take back.

"You are not joking! The frontier soldiers have not been paid, so how can I feel at ease in the palace? This matter is decided like this."

"Chongzhen! Chongzhen! I chose the year name myself, and I want to go down to Chongzhen tomorrow!"

boom!

The ministers trembled when they heard the words.

At this moment, even the ministers who have been in the ups and downs of the officialdom for many years can't help being shocked at this moment.

The emperor has already done what he can do to the limit...

Everyone looked at Chongzhen at this moment.

The red dragon robe still couldn't hide his thin body, but at this moment, his body was as heavy as a mountain.

emperor!

This is the emperor in their minds!

At this moment, Chongzhen's image completely surpassed that of his elder brother.

At this moment, all the ministers recalled the scene of Emperor Tianqi appointing the throne at the end of his life, and the corners of their eyes were moist.

Emperor Apocalypse did not choose the wrong person!

Bi Ziyan, who was kneeling at the front, was even more emotional.

"The first emperor! This old minister will do his last best for Daming."

Thinking of this, Bi Ziyan looked up at Chongzhen with a determined face, and said in a deep voice, "Your Majesty, even so, there is still not enough money."

As soon as his words came out, the words in the hall fell silent, and all the people looked at Bi Ziyan in unison.

Everyone looked at Bi Ziyan's resolute expression, and all of them shuddered.

At this moment, Bi Ziyan's sonorous words resounded in everyone's ears.

"¨For the sake of the world, the Ministry of Household Affairs will levy additional salaries, suppression salaries, and training salaries from wealthy households and gentry all over the world tomorrow. Your majesty please agree!"

As soon as the three salaries were paid, the hall was full of silence, and everyone was dumbfounded.

Hubu Shangshu is dead?

As soon as this strategy is implemented, the rich households and gentry all over the world will definitely hate it, and at the same time these people are inextricably linked with the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty.

Offending this group of people is offending the whole world!

There is no longer any place for Bi Ziyan's family in the world...

The next moment, all the officials who reacted jumped up from the ground in shock.

Chongzhen trembled violently when he heard the words, looked at Bi Ziyan tremblingly, and said in a trembling voice: "Shangshu?"

Liao Xiang dealt with Hou Jin, suppressed the payment to deal with the rioters, and trained the payment to deal with Zhu Youchen.

The three payments completely solved all his current difficulties.

However, Chongzhen also understands the consequences of doing this (Nuo Zhao's).

Give up Bi Ziyan's family, and Baoda will go down tomorrow.

Shocked, shocked!

Chongzhen's heart turned a thousand times, his eyes turned red instantly, looking at Bi Ziyan's white hair, he couldn't say anything.

Even at this moment, the rest of the courtiers looked at Bi Ziyan in astonishment. They dared not say such words, let alone think about them.

But that's it.

Everyone knew that once the three payments were paid, they would be the ones to suffer, but at this moment there was nothing but shock besides shock.

Bi Ziyan's stooped back is not carrying his head, but the whole Daming country.

Suddenly, the dark crowd of courtiers fell to the ground.

"Master Shangshu!!!"

Thousands of people are willing, and facing this situation, everyone has nothing but admiration and worship in their hearts.

Bi Ziyan took a deep breath, stretched out his hand to straighten his crown, stood up and bowed to everyone, his words were loud:

"This old man is the Minister of the Household Department, and he is obliged to serve the great Ming Dynasty!".

Chapter 245

Some people are happy and some are worried!

At the moment when the Ming court was exhausting its efforts to enrich the national treasury, Zhu Youchen, who was far away in Luzon, was excited because of wealth.

[Ding, gold +7867]

【Ding, Stone+8563】

【Ding, Stone+7865】

[Ding, gold +4578]

Relevant information is constantly being refreshed on the resource board of the system, and these are all minerals mined from the Masbate Gold Mine.

Like a black hole, the mining field frantically devoured everything the farmers collected.

At this moment, although the [-] slaves in Luzon have not yet arrived at the Masbate Gold Mine, the farmers under Zhu Youchen's command have already started mining the periphery of the gold mine.

However, just from the peripheral mining, Zhu Youchen's gold unit has already started to skyrocket.

Although the number of each increase is only four digits, it is only the outermost minerals, and the farmers of the system are just sorting out the outside of the mine.

"When the [-] slaves start digging thoroughly, the gold units each time can definitely exceed five-digit units."

Five digits at a time.

Zhu Youchen felt extremely excited just thinking about it.

In fact, Zhu Youchen didn't even know that the gold mine on Masbate Island was actually the second largest gold mine in Luzon.

But even such a gold mine can definitely increase the strength of Zhu Youchen's command, especially modern mining equipment needs to find veins and screen gold.

Zhu Youchen's system mining farm does not need such trouble at all.

Anticipation, excitement.

No one thinks there is too much gold, even Zhu Youchen is no exception. Even if his gold units have already been tens of millions of units, he still feels that it is not enough.

All advanced units require gold.

The other buildings behind also require gold.

Gold is an important resource to support later development. Except for food, there is only gold.

Therefore, Zhu Youchen had no sense of satisfaction at all, and immediately issued an order to all the system farmers in his mind:

"Let all the villages explore the environment of 3000 meters around the village step by step."

The order was transmitted to all the villages through the system in an instant, and then all the villagers would take action.

Zhu Youchen looked at the densely packed villages on the map, and a gleam flashed in his eyes.

At this moment, with the radiation of the population, he knows that if Nanyang alone is free, it can support at least 5000 million people.

However, Zhu Youchen has no such plan. He has such a terrifying system, and there is no need for all the people to live together crowded together.

Moreover, his population will reproduce automatically.

At this moment, some of the farmers who were first produced by him have been pregnant one after another. It is foreseeable that after this year, his population will increase dramatically just by natural reproduction.

As for the sudden increase, it depends on the base of his peasant population.

Thinking of this, Zhu Youchen's eyes flashed a cold light: "I need more land to house my population!"
