Chapter 394 Jia Huan: Don’t Disappoint Me, Emperor! (Please Subscribe)

Nowadays, I am very excited about the proposal from the royal family members to purchase a share of private salt.

These royal family members are all rich men, and they only ask for two million taels.

Although he knew that the annual profits from private salt sales could be five times that, these profits were divided up by large and small salt merchants and related entities. Without the imperial court, nothing would happen.

Now, if we can get an extra two million taels, plus the normal salt tax of more than six million taels, the annual salt tax revenue can be stable at more than eight million taels.

If the national treasury can have such a fixed income every year, it will have a lot of confidence.

Nowadays, we have a large territory in the outer sea, so we naturally know what the royal family members want to do!

If possible, he would like to join in!

Of course, such a thing must have nothing to do with the emperor. Otherwise, if it spreads, the reputation will be lost, and I am afraid it will be severely recorded in the history books.

Isn’t there also the Ministry of Internal Affairs?

What does the Ministry of Internal Affairs do? Naturally, it has to take the blame for the emperor at critical moments.

Do you really think you don’t know what dirty things the Ministry of Internal Affairs is doing in private?

It's just using money to win people's hearts. They have to be honest at the critical moment.

However, it is difficult for the cabinet to pass it.

The cabinet system, with its current development, is already quite complete, and it is also a constraint for the emperor.

At the very least, if the emperor wants to cause chaos and the cabinet does not cooperate, the imperial edict will not be legitimate.

Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, one year had passed since the elder passed away.

As a nephew, Jia Huan's filial piety period has come.

In the same situation as him, Lin Daiyu, his niece, also had the same year of filial piety.

Of course, Lin Daiyu and her father Lin Ruhai were living in the provincial capital of the Central Plains at this time. The situation in the capital was not very clear.

Jia Huan just invited acquaintances to have a meal at home, which was considered as a cure.

The next day, a small pile of posts sent from outside was placed on the desk.

In fact, many people are already waiting for it.

When Jia Huan was active before, he didn't realize that this guy was able to take care of so many things at once, and he did everything comprehensively.

But this guy suddenly became silent, and something went wrong.

Everything I did before was discussed with my partners.

But during the period of mourning, Jia Huan could not visit others, so he could only call on his subordinates.

The industry and power under him are developing well, but the situation of his partners cannot be said to be bad, but they have lost the momentum that can be felt at a glance.

For example, if the recruitment of heroes can be fully communicated in advance, the other partners will not follow up later, and the arrangements will be made in advance, which will waste time.

There is also the matter of selling salt. Oral communication alone is definitely not enough. Some things must be communicated face to face.

No, Prince Zhongshun personally invited him, so there was no way Jia Huan would not give him face.

Although he has entered the period of filial piety, Jia Huan does not have any high-profile ideas.

After all, Jia Cong and Jia Lian are still in their filial piety period. It is not a good thing for him to act too much at this time. Who knows how many people and forces are secretly poking and waiting for him to make a mistake?

The meeting place is at the martial arts hall at the entrance of Ningrong Street.

As the size of the hall increases, a complete logistics system has been formed here.

Things like small private rooms in the canteen have already been arranged.

Prince Zhongshun was very courageous, and he brought his confidant Chang Shi and two powerful guards with him.

We sat down and exchanged a few words, and the conversation quickly got on track.

"According to the news from the palace, I am very excited about the salt-drying matter, and I intend to agree!"

"It's just that I am worried about the cabinet's opposition, so I have no intention of speaking!"

Prince Zhongshun spoke directly, his tone full of displeasure.

"Then find a way to keep the cabinet busy and have no time or energy to fight with us!"

Jia Huan smiled and said: "For example, on the basis of Zhang Juzheng's new law in the previous Ming Dynasty, policies such as 'returning fire to the public' and 'officials and gentry receive food from one body' were implemented." "

Hearing this, Prince Zhongshun couldn't help but take a breath, and his eyes changed when he looked at Jia Huan.

"You, you, you, do you know what the consequences will be if this gets spread?"

He was frightened. He didn't expect that Jia Huan had such crazy thoughts in his mind.

"Returning fire to the public" is aimed at the lower-level officials, directly cutting off their stable income.

As for "officials and gentry receiving food from one body", this is definitely a major event that shocked the world's officials and people!

Jia Huan did not answer in a hurry. Instead, he waited for Prince Zhongshun to regain his composure before speaking slowly: "My lord, just tell me, can such a proposal make the cabinet ministers have no intention of looking outside?"

"That's really true!"

Prince Zhongshun reacted and couldn't help but give a thumbs up and said: "If someone brings it up in the court, it will definitely be a big deal!"

"Let me explain in advance, it has nothing to do with me!"

Jia Huan smiled and said: "Anyway, I have an idea. As for whether you are willing to adopt it, my lord, that is your own business. Just don't drag me into trouble!"

"You kid, you really know how to blame!"

Prince Zhongshun said angrily: "It's hard for me to bring this up. Do you want to hang out in the court in the future? There are too many people offended!"

"Then provide it to the current emperor, he will definitely be interested!"

Jia Huan didn't take it seriously and said: "If he can accomplish these two things, he will definitely be recorded in the history books, and he is also a wise and powerful person. Let alone doubling the national treasury income, adding five or six floors will be a problem. None, what do you think, Prince?"

"What I think is not important, the key is how I think now!"

Prince Zhongshun curled his lips and said, "If it were in the past, I would never agree to this!"

"But right now, it doesn't matter. Anyway, the palace's focus is no longer on Daqian. It doesn't matter even if it pays taxes to the government every year!"

"The key is that as long as the salting matter can be passed, the astonishing profits will easily cover the expenses of the palace. This is the real big profit!"

Jia Huan smiled and said leisurely: "I have an idea, it depends on how the prince will act!"

After saying that, he picked up the tea bowl in front of him and took a sip, assuming the posture of 'bringing tea to see guests off'.

"You kid..."

Prince Zhongshun was unhappy, but he didn't want to get angry. He just pointed at Jia Huan and turned around to leave.

"hey-hey……"

Seeing Prince Zhongshun leaving in anger, Jia Huan was in a good mood.

If Daqian really promotes the implementation of the two policies he proposed, then Daqian's national destiny can be boosted for at least a hundred years, which is no exaggeration at all.

In fact, financial collapse is one of the fundamental reasons why all dynasties and generations ended.

Of course, if we want to implement the idea of ​​"returning firepower to the public" and "officials and gentry all receive food from one body", the resistance is absolutely unimaginable. If you don't have the courage to burn the boat now, you probably won't even dare to propose it.

But this matter is really extremely beneficial to Daqian and a great thing that can prolong the national destiny!

Think about it, how many troubles can be solved by having an extra 10 to 20 million yuan in revenue for the treasury a year?

At the same time, Jia Huan can also reap considerable fortune income from it!

It has been a long time since he checked his golden finger virtual panel. The clouds about luck in it have not changed much for a long time.

As the center of the Red Mansion, the change in fate of the Twelve Hairpins of Jinling is the main source of good luck.

As for other things he did, even if he defeated the Huqi outside the Great Wall and changed the pattern of the northwest frontier, the luck he gained in the end was only about the same as changing the fate of Lin Daiyu and Xue Baochai combined.

As well as stabilizing the situation in the southwest and extending his tentacles to Qianxiang Country, the luck gained is similar.

At this time, the total number of luck on Goldfinger’s virtual panel has not yet reached three thousand!

He doesn't know what the level of luck is like!

However, judging from the fact that no matter what he does since his rise, everything goes smoothly, this level of luck is still quite good.

Unfortunately, there is no horizontal control group, and Jia Huan is still confused about this.

On the contrary, opening up the open sea provided him with a steady stream of luck.

Although there is not much luck every year, the advantage is that the water flows steadily, and there is a certain amount of income every year.

This time, the reform suggestions given to Prince Zhongshun can be regarded as suggestions for the present. Naturally, he also wants to gain a wave of luck. Anyway, he knows that the more luck, the better.

It's just a pity. I don't know if the martial arts level in the Red Mansion World is really too low. The progress bar of the breathing method that he has studied and researched by himself has not yet reached 40%.

Even so, his body seemed to have entered a new state.

He can easily do what the top masters in martial arts novels can do.

If placed in the system of the martial arts world, his strength at this time has reached the peak of the astonishing realm of "divine enlightenment", and it is not easy to improve further.

He hoped that by spending a lot of energy this time and mobilizing people in the world to fight overseas, he would attract the attention of the established forces in the world, and even Buddhism and Taoism.

At that time, he will be able to use this as an opportunity to conduct in-depth cooperation and exchanges with these forces.

As for continuing to improve his physical fitness, he also has some ideas and directions, but he doesn't know if it can be done. It will require the cooperation of monks and Taoists.

In short, Jia Huan is quite satisfied with his situation now!

It is no exaggeration to say that he is now at the pinnacle of martial arts in this world, and he has also gained enough authority. Whatever he does in the future will be just the icing on the cake.

But he is still very young and has no intention of lying down and retiring to old age.

He also wants to see more wonderful and different things in this world.

Of course, Jia Huan also hopes that as he works hard to improve, Daqian will also get better and better, instead of falling quickly after reaching the peak like previous dynasties.

Doesn't that make him seem a little too incompetent as a time traveler?

In short, he very much hopes that the current emperor will be more powerful at this time, and he must not disappoint him.

Otherwise, when he wants to do something in the future, it depends on whether Daqian can get the maximum benefit from this. He is not an unprincipled philanthropist.

Fortunately, Jia Huan's expectations have not been disappointed. This year is destined to be an extraordinary year for Daqian.

I don’t know how Prince Zhongshun passed the plan to the current emperor. In short, this man behaved very actively and enthusiastically.
