Zhu Song nodded.

"After so many years of farming, I have grown some experience. Most of the land in the south is mainly yellow soil, red soil. The nutrients in the red soil of the yellow soil are not as good as those in the black soil. In the north of Liaodong, Yue

The darker the land is to the north.”

"To be honest, I went to Liaodong. I sent a team of people to the south of Nurkandus in the next year. I thoroughly investigated and asked them to bring some local soil back.

The black color is shiny."

"If rice and wheat are planted in such a field, it will not only produce high, but also taste good. As for corn, although it has not been successful several times before, I always think corn is a rare and good item, so I will sell it to me for food

Hu Shang said that one acre of corn can reach thousands of kilograms per acre."

"If I could plant it in the large area of ​​black soil north of Liaodong, my god, I wouldn't dare to think about the yield of that acre of land."

"When my father-in-law returns to Kaiyuan, everything is stable, I will send a letter to my son-in-law. The son-in-law will find an opportunity to explain this to the emperor. Be sure to make use of the fertile land that has not been reclaimed."

Feng Cheng felt excited after hearing this. If this matter really happened, then he must have his own name on the credit book.

"Your Highness, if this matter can really be accomplished, your Highness will be the first hero of my Ming Dynasty! The first hero of my Chinese children!"

Feng Cheng praised Zhu Song so much, which really made Zhu Song a little embarrassed.

In fact, this is not what Zhu Song deserves. Zhu Song only gained the status advantage of a time traveler, knowing that these grains can be eaten, and they do not pick on land, and the output is very high.

Even if it is a rare food, it can grow and eat it as long as it is planted into the ground. It is better than Guanyin soil. Eating Guanyin soil can make you die of suffocation. Eating this thing is not easy to make you die of it, and that is a good thing.

"My father-in-law, all this is just a guess. If it can be achieved, it will be good. If it cannot be achieved, you don't have to be discouraged. Anyway, you can always find food that cannot be eaten and food that can fill your stomach.

”

Feng Cheng nodded in agreement: "Your Highness is right. As long as you can't eat, you can fill your stomach, it is good food. Alas, I heard that Shaanxi and Shanxi have suffered another severe drought that has not been encountered for decades. Although the food of the people is not pelleted

There was no harvest, but the yield in previous years also dropped sharply, and some rice did not even have ears."

"The court is also anxious about this matter now. When I left the palace, I saw Xia Yuanji, the Minister of Revenue and the two ministers of the Ministry of Revenue, who had just taken office, were waiting outside the imperial study room."

"The tax revenue this year is not ideal. Although the officials in the Jianwen Dynasty who controlled the government are not good at doing things, the tax revenue is really the best."

"In the beginning of spring, the Ming Dynasty's taxes were basically collected. Now it's our turn to Yongle Dynasty and don't know whether to collect them or not."

"You said if you want to collect it, it's different whether the people can celebrate the New Year this year. But if they don't collect it, the court has no money and only a few million taels left to provide disaster relief. Because the war has caused serious damage to the houses in Shandong and Henan.

These are not ignored, and the city defenses that head from north to south have also suffered great damage and need to be repaired."

"Everyone has its own difficulties!"

Zhu Song nodded. According to Zhu Song's idea, after the fourth brother became emperor, he wrote a letter to him, asking to lower the salary of the imperial vassal kings and raise the officials' salaries.

As the same goes, Emperor Taizu's method of raising integrity was not feasible. It is easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but it is difficult to go from extravagance to frugality.

Officials are no better than ordinary people. Ordinary people can't spend much money on farming and eating all year round, but officials always have to pay some money when they come and go, and they also give each other a gift during the holidays.

Besides, this official of the seventh rank or above in the court usually cannot do everything himself at home, and also hire a few servants. This is another sum of money.

Many officials are reluctant to drink wine all year round. In the long run, as long as they give them a little sweetness, they are likely to go from being a corrupt official to becoming a corrupt official.

But now, now, there is not much money in the treasury, and the fourth brother has just ascended the throne, so he probably wouldn't agree to his memorial to reduce the salary of the vassal kings.

Compared with the salaries and military power of the vassal kings, Zhu Di's choice will definitely be very simple, clear and clear, that is, the priority of military power is higher than that of salary. Since you want other people's military power, don't reduce your salary. Since you want to reduce your salary.

If you have salary, don’t cut off your military power.

It’s not that you can do whatever you want when you become an emperor, you can deduct whatever you want, and you can deduct whoever you want to deduct the military power. This is really that easy. How could Zhu Di rebel? It’s even more impossible to rebel.

success.

There are not many vassal kings in the world who are good at ease. The reason why they don’t rebel is because they don’t have the same thugs as Zhu Di, but the rabbit will bite people even if it is anxious. Isn’t the best case Zhu Song and Zhu Di?

Zhu Di had the ambition to be an emperor, but Zhu Song did not. Zhu Song was forced by Jianwen, and there was nothing he could do.

Therefore, at this time, I would definitely not agree to the issue of bringing down the salary of the vassal king. However, the salary of the vassal king cannot be reduced, and the salary of the officials cannot be increased either.

Fortunately, in the Yongle dynasty, Zhu Di relied on his strong ability. Even if his salary was not enough, those officials had no complaints, and they did not dare to produce a powerful corrupt official.

But how to pass this hurdle in front of me really stumped the emperor, stumped the civil and military officials of the court, and also stumped Zhu Song.

"It's really not easy for the court now, and Jianwen is really a sin."

Feng Cheng nodded in agreement.

That night, Feng Cheng stayed in the palace for the meal. After using it, Feng Cheng went home.

The next day, Zhu Song and Princess Han saw Feng Cheng farewell outside the city. Princess Han cried so hard, and Princess Zhao was also taken by Princess Han and kept sobbing, saying that the same was true for Concubine Zhao.

After Concubine Zhao came to Yingtian with Zhu Song, his parents naturally stayed in Kaiyuan.

It took Zhu Song a long time to coax the two women almost to the point.

Just as I was about to go home, the Jinyi Guard came to report there immediately.

"Your Highness, the Qin criminal Huang Zicheng and Qi Tai are already on the way, and they are expected to enter Beijing this afternoon!"

Zhu Song was overjoyed after hearing this.
