After convinced Brother Tutu, Yinreng put the first hook on his plan in his mind, and then he had to work hard for the second hook.

Yinreng: Given that Gu always makes trouble in front of Khan Ama, he left the impression that Khan Ama was "not very wonderful", Gu felt that it would be better to persuade Khan Ama to receive foreign envoys to do it by giving it to someone who has nothing to do with Gu.

As for whom to do it, of course it is to a person who Yinreng is absolutely "unsent" to. Now, Lord Chen Tingjing, who is popular in the court and the country!

Lord Chen used to be in charge of the treasury in the Ministry of Revenue. If Yu Guozhu had not committed any crime, Khan Ama originally intended to promote Yu Guozhu. Now that the position of Minister of Revenue Han Chen is transferred, Lord Chen will be promoted to take over as Minister of Revenue.

When Yinreng studied with Chen Tingjing, he heard him talk about the treasury. During the maritime ban, the main taxes of the treasury came from land tax and merchant taxes, while the money from the Ministry of Internal Affairs mainly came from the salt administration. The emperor sent his confidants to the shops and villages he had arranged.

There are too few sources of money in the treasury!

It is impossible to increase land taxes to increase the burden on the people. Khan Ama said that reducing taxes is the way the prosperous age is coming, and increasing taxes is a sign of troubled times.

Based on the data obtained from previous studies, Yinreng calculated how long the treasury's money could last without affecting the healthy operation of the Qing Dynasty. After all, he was worried.

No wonder Khan Ama has many concerns. After all, war is a consumption of national strength. If he uses all his trump cards to deal with Tsarist Russia, how should he deal with Galdan afterwards?

Yinreng waited and waited. When the Lantern Festival was approaching, the chef in the kitchen made him delicious sesame-filled dumplings. The time was finally ripe.

"I come to pack up the people and small animals I want to bring to Changchun Garden."

Yinreng arranged a plan to start counting the number of people.

The first person to be taken away together is Mama Xu, the palace maid Jinxiu and the eunuch Yuzhu.

Jinxiu took two newly-employed little palace maids, and she was stupid and unhappy, and would come with Jinxiu. The palace maids in Yuqing Palace were generally older. After a few years, when the crown prince grew up, they would all become nannies. When the crown prince retired, Jinxiu would take over the position of Madam Xu and become Madam Jin and his crown prince. So who would be the next generation of successors selected by Aunt Jinxiu?

It’s not that they are stupid or unhappy, but they will also be others. Whether it is the emperor’s pointing to him, the Hesheli family, or the Prince’s promotion himself, they must be taught to keep up with His Royal Highness’s actions.

Yinreng said again: "Take Tom's mat and two goose grass cushions. How can I not bring Tom's cat and Xiaoyi and Shiqi? I will want to die of them when I go to Changchun Garden."

Seeing this, Xinyu wanted to speak but stopped: "When you arrive at Changchun Garden, the emperor will ask His Highness to study hard and study hard. It is probably inappropriate to bring cats and gooses."

Yinreng shook his head: "The tutors will not go to Khan Ama to complain because of the orphans bringing small animals. Khan Ama should also agree. If you don't believe it, ask Khan Ama for the orphans."

Kangxi ordered Yinreng to study in Changchun Garden, and found him a quiet place, with the goal of concentrating on his mind. He is already a grown-up child, so how could he let him play like he did when he was a child?

When Kangxi heard Xinyu's report, he frowned: "You go and tell Baocheng that I will still ask Chen Tingjing to teach him. The other tutors turned a blind eye and all looked at him. Chen Tingjing was very serious."

The other tutors did not care about the crown prince. It was because Kangxi was too relaxed by the crown prince a few years ago, so they thought the emperor didn't care about it.

Even the emperors have an attitude of educating the prince to let him grow freely. How could other grand tutors always complain in front of Kangxi? After all, the prince's excellent academic performance is indeed impeccable.

Only Chen Tingjing was not afraid of offending the prince or the emperor. He was meticulous in his work, but shocked the prince who was a little naughty.

Kangxi looked serious: "This time, I will not let Baocheng make trouble again."

When Yinreng heard Xinyu's reply from running errands, his little abacus in his heart made a sound and pretended to be regretful: "Okay, I won't take care of the children this time."

Although he did not bring the little animals, Yinreng specially arranged people to take care of them. He brought his small blackboard and the chalk and chalk that he ordered to make.

With the current lacquer making technology in the Qing Dynasty, it is not difficult to make blackboards. The craftsmen have good skills. The chalk is as thick as Yinreng's thumb and can be written for a long time.

When Chen Tingjing came to teach, Yinreng hung the statistics on the blackboard slowly in a prominent position.

"Teacher Chen, come and take a look. According to the data from the Ministry of Revenue in previous years, the treasury income bar chart before and after the Qing Dynasty's sea ban is rising year by year! Especially this year, major ports have started trading, and the number of increases is more than the combined land tax and merchant taxes."

When Chen Tingjing heard this, he really fell in love with it.

"Indeed, after the sea ban was increased, the treasury would have more tariff income, and the silver earned was naturally different from the past."

"I heard that foreign missions have been asking to come to Beijing to pay homage to Khan Ama," Yinreng was worried while wiping the blackboard to destroy evidence: "Will Khan Ama meet them next year?"

Chen Tingjing laughed in silence: "I didn't expect that even during the holidays, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was concerned about state affairs. Foreign envoys begged to enter the capital to pay tribute. For the Qing Dynasty, it was still a major event that demonstrated the prestige of the country, so the emperor naturally would not refuse."

Yinreng: "..."

I know that the Chinese ministers in the court now have this attitude towards foreign envoys!

"When foreign envoys are like Beijing, translation will become a problem again. The translation on the document alone will have as big differences as I have discovered before, let alone oral translation?"

"Your Highness, the oral translation is from the Ministry of Rites who sent someone to take charge of it. What you are studying is the Ministry of Revenue."

Chen Tingjing wants to remind Yinreng to study hard again.

What to do if you think about doing so much, these things should be a worry for the emperor. His Royal Highness’s first priority is to study hard.

Yinreng muttered: "I thought the Qing Dynasty could solve domestic food problems through foreign trade and international exchanges."

Chen Tingjing shook his head: "Your Highness, the Qing Dynasty's food is self-sufficient, so where do we need to rely on foreigners to solve the problem?"

"The Qing Dynasty was self-sufficient in staple food, but soybeans were in short supply in the market. These figures were recorded in documents. As the people's lives became better and better, the demand for soybeans among the people gradually increased. However, if soybeans were planted in multiple ways, it would encroach on the area of ​​the farmland, and the government would stipulate the proportion of grain fields that each farmer needs to grow. In addition, there are also cotton, vegetable oil, sugar, and poultry."

Yinreng took out another blackboard, which was densely written on it, which would provide benefits for the Qing Dynasty if the trade route was opened.

"Although the Qing Dynasty has been harvesting for many years, it is still in a very tense balance overall," Yinreng said seriously: "In addition, people's demand for brewing has increased, and more grain production has been consumed."

"From the year-end financial records of the Ministry of Revenue last year, if you want to improve the people's food, clothing, housing and transportation, you can start from these aspects. Lord Chen is a parent official who pleads for the people and is also a good official who is willing to listen to the voice of the people. The first goal of the people is to eat enough first, and if you get full, you will starve to death after you get full. Don't have some higher pursuits? This is people's instinct for pursuing happiness."

Look at how nice Yinreng said it, Chen Tingjing was moved!

After all, it is also the new Minister of the Ministry of Revenue who is about to take office. Chen Tingjing has been paying attention to the finances of the Ministry of Revenue for a long time last year, but he has not considered that such operations will still occur after the lifting of the maritime ban.

Seeing that he was moved, Yinreng hurriedly wiped out all the evidence he had written down, leaving only a little chalk dust for Lord Chen.

"Mr. Chen, it's almost time, we should have a good class."

The most important way to make people scratch their hearts is to suddenly stop after he was moved, making him unable to stop.

Yinreng also blocked Chen Tingjing's mouth very quickly.

"Khan Ama said that Gu's most important task now is to study hard with you. Gu just learned from the 'Immortal' and learned that there was such a good way, so he mentioned it to you."

Immortal! Great way!

Yinreng: "I'm afraid you will need to discuss this matter with Khan Ama in the future. I just mentioned it, just mentioned it."

Chen Tingjing: “…”

He felt the sudden stop of His Royal Highness, and he felt like a mirror in his heart, but he couldn't do anything to him.

Yinreng sat upright and picked up the book, read it with concentration. While pulling his attention back to the book, he pricked up his ears to listen to Chen Tingjing's movements.

He heard Chen Tingjing sigh softly, as if he was compromising with him, and he knew in his heart: It seems that there is a chance!

As expected, not long after this class, Kangxi summoned Yinreng and asked him with a serious face: "Immortal has taught you something again, why don't you tell me if you don't hear it accidentally? If Chen Tingjing hadn't heard it accidentally, he wouldn't have known what you learned."

Yinreng: "Khan Ama, Erchen didn't know whether what he learned was useful, so he casually asked the Grand Tutor's opinion. Erchen couldn't come to you every time he learned new knowledge. He was annoyed by this when he was a child, and he was ignorant of his ignorance. When he grew up, he knew that you had worked hard, so how could he always take up your time?"

Yinreng was gentle and humble, and already had a calm and generous look. Just looking at his answers, Kangxi felt the joy and comfort of "My family has a son growing up."

Only Chen Tingjing, who came to "report" to Kangxi, saw the prince's smile, looking like a little fox!

Kangxi had no doubt that Yinreng was about to do something. Since he was asking the tutor's doubts, the prince himself must not be able to grasp the depth of it.

"Tell me how good this is to develop in the Qing Dynasty."

Yinreng nodded and mentioned the word "import".

Importing is a good measure! It can promote close exchanges between friendly countries, and solve the problem of domestic shortage of materials. It can use their excesses to exchange for what they need with other countries. If it encounters a year of war, even the most urgent food problem can be solved.

The grain, cotton and vegetable seeds of the Qing Dynasty are not necessarily the best seeds. If new seeds are imported, better seeds can be studied and improved.

I heard Yinreng tell the story in a casual manner, no longer like the erotic eloquence of his childhood, and he clearly spoke gentle and elegant words. Before he knew it, Kangxi and Chen Tingjing were both in deep thought.

"Of course, the premise of all this is that the Qing government takes the initiative to discuss business with foreign merchants."

"Since you want to talk about business, the Qing Dynasty needs to cultivate a large number of talents that can communicate with them. The Qing Dynasty has to send its own people out, reach out, open its eyes, and explore the outside world."

Yinreng: Plan 2: convince Khan Ama to meet envoys from various countries.

The preliminary preparation required for this plan is to cultivate the Qing Dynasty's own foreign language talents, send the Qing Dynasty's talents abroad, and increase foreign exchanges and cooperation after the lifting of the maritime ban, thereby attracting more and more foreigners to the Qing Dynasty, including envoys, missionaries and foreign businessmen from various countries.

So the purpose was back again. The reform of the military system did not show any effect for the time being, but buying foreign guns and foreign cannons could be achieved in a short period of time. Tsarist Russia could hire Cossack cavalry to invade the Qing Dynasty's border. Why couldn't the Qing Dynasty hire mercenaries from other countries? This could also be achieved in a short period of time.

As long as the Qing Dynasty went to war with Tsarist Russia, the missionaries who were determined to seek a trade route would do their best to promote reconciliation, and they would continue to deal with it and connect with the two countries.

Yinreng knew that he only submitted a memorial to ask Khan Ama to receive the envoys. Khan Ama would not take this seriously when facing the condescending foreign envoys' mentality, and the court officials were still immersed in the dream of the superior country of the Celestial Empire, and they would not take foreign envoys seriously.

But if there are other temptations as bait, there are many benefits, which are related to the food in the Qing Dynasty and closely related to the lives of the Qing people, then it will be different.

Chen Tingjing has taken the bait, and Khan Ama, who is determined to keep his name in history and become the emperor of the ages, may not let the benefits that are in front of him slip away.

As expected, Chen Tingjing took the initiative to report the Ministry of Revenue's grain income and expenditure balance last year to the emperor.

At first glance, the food inventory of the Qing Dynasty was gradually increasing, but what followed was that the population of the Qing people was growing and consumed very quickly. The surplus grain in the granary seemed to be enough, but in fact, when encountering natural disasters, it needed to be used for emergency response. Overall, this balance was as nervous as stepping on steel wire. It was precisely because of this that Kangxi tried to avoid fighting at both ends and at the same time, he dealt with the loss of Tsarist Russia and the Junggar Khanate on the national strength of the Qing Dynasty.

Kangxi tapped the table with his fingers and pondered: "So, what did the Qing Dynasty use to conduct long-term and stable transactions with foreigners?"

"Khan Ama probably didn't know that in the minds of foreigners, silk and porcelain from the East were so precious that only the royal family could use. France's extravagant nobles loved these, and England's wealthy rich people also loved these. The Qing Dynasty not only needed imports, but also exported goods. The most important thing was to regain the influence of the Han and Tang Dynasties on the surrounding world."
