Emperor Chongzhen felt that he was now being roasted on the fire.

Forget it, it’s all money, and what’s next will be exploited anyway. It’s very likely that the people will transfer this part to their own pockets because they don’t have to pay taxes.

Unavoidable, what should I do with my reputation of loving the people like a son?

Just like what His Majesty Li Er said, water can carry a boat and overturn it. The reason why I dare to be so willful now is inseparable from my image among the people.

After all, if the common people support him, then he, the emperor, will be as stable as a dog, and it doesn't matter how many officials he kills.

If the common people don't support him anymore, he will be paralyzed as an emperor, and he will be paralyzed directly. It's better to hang him on a tree, which will save worry and trouble.

What this bastard Xu Dingchen did is like setting himself on fire, and it's a dilemma whether it's inevitable or not.

After thinking over and over again, Emperor Chongzhen, who has always regarded himself as a flat-headed brother in the emperor's world, simply issued another imperial edict based on the principle that if you dare to disgust me, I will never make you feel better.

Chapter 453 Make an Opening

Isn't it just to be exempted?Don't you just want me to get rid of the debts accumulated over the years?

OK!no problem!I'm free!

Not only are the previous debts waived, but even the Chongzhen six-year and Chongzhen seven-year taxes are waived!No more!

In the six years of Chongzhen, except for commercial tax and mining tax, which have nothing to do with the common people, all other things like poll tax were exempted. I don't want it!

But, I don't have to take it, and you bastards don't want to get a penny into your own pockets.

Now that the Ming Dynasty sent people to read out the decree, if anyone dares to risk the disgrace of the world, go to the people to collect some messy money and put it in their pockets, then they are against me, and they are cutting themselves off from Daming and the people .

At that time, we will see whether your means of making money are better, or whether the factory guards and the people are more powerful.

If you say that the means of making money are clever enough to make money from the common people without being reported by the common people, or reported to the police after being found out by the factory guards, it only shows that you are strong enough, your IQ is high enough, and the money you make is considered your skill. .

But once the people complained, or were reported by the factory guards after they found out, without saying anything, they would directly ransack their homes and implicate the nine clans!

Emperor Chongzhen once again brought out Brother Pingtou's spirit, since you don't want to make me happy, I won't make you happy either!

Do you think this is the end?

If it's that simple, then I will still be the emperor drying wool?Fun is still behind!

Both Jinyiwei and Dongchang spread out to see if these bastard officials reached out to the relief food, and also to see if these bastards put the money in their pockets after I was exempted from taxes .

As long as they reach out to provide food for disaster relief, one counts as one, and they all turn their factories into my own, and then buy food for disaster relief!

To his mother, isn't it just shameless, isn't it just playing tricks, let's see who can do it well!

Xu Dingchen, the governor of Shanxi Province, not only exempted the accumulated debts over the years from the Chongzhen Emperor, but even exempted the taxes of the sixth and seventh years of Chongzhen, and when only the commercial tax was retained, he knew that something was wrong.

This kind of behavior of exempting the accumulated arrears and exempting taxes for this and next two years, no matter how you look at it, it seems that His Majesty the Emperor is angry.

And this anger was caused by myself, no matter how clean I am, my heart will always be very empty.

According to the temperament of the master in the Forbidden City, if he lost so much money, he must get it back from other places.

And there are actually only a few ways for the emperor to make up for the loss-either start from the vassal king, or start from the officials, or increase taxes.

And this has just been exempted from taxes, so what is the increase in taxes? Wouldn't it be a slap in the face of the emperor?In particular, there is an edict of never adding Fu in front of it.

The vassal kings can have this way, but now the vassal kings are thinking about going to Xinming Island to reap benefits, and it is unlikely that Emperor Chongzhen will attack the vassal kings at this time.

Then the only remaining way for Emperor Chongzhen to make up for the loss is the officials.

And as the source of all this, his memorial will soon be known by other officials, these big bosses who are missed by His Majesty the Emperor must hate themselves to death?

Xu Dingchen was a little flustered, but on second thought, what the hell is he panicking?What's there to panic about?

Yes, I made a big mess, which made the current life unhappy, and made His Majesty the emperor to be so angry that he didn't want the taxes of Chongzhen's six years and Chongzhen's seven years.

But shouldn't this matter be viewed from both sides?

How many officials are as clean as themselves?This official also stabbed the basket for the common people. Most of those officials stabbed because they were too greedy. Can this be the same?

As long as the current emperor wants to show some face, and still wants to lose the reputation of being a wise king through the ages, it is not a big deal to make such a mess by himself!

Don't you go before, the person in the Tang Dynasty, that guy sprayed His Majesty Li Er every day when he had nothing to do, forcing His Majesty Li Er to suffocate his own birds to death, isn't he still alive and kicking?

Although it is said that the fate after death is a bit miserable, but after all, it is the dirty water splashed by people after death, and it is arrogant when alive.

As long as he loves the people like a son, has the reputation of being loyal and daring to advise, and as long as he is not greedy, then His Majesty the Emperor will not be able to turn the world around—could he still frame himself for rebellion?

Thinking of this, Xu Dingchen suddenly became more confident.

But Xu Dingchen's confidence did not last long.

Sun Jin, the engineering teacher, and Lou Zhilan, the right servant of the Ministry of Railways, came to Shanxi with a group of subordinates.

The purpose of coming here is simple - to repair the railway.

And it is the same as when the capital city was built, two lines were built directly, one is the line from Taiyuan Mansion to Xuan Mansion and then passes through Xuan Mansion to the capital, and the other line is from Taiyuan Mansion to Henan Mansion and then to Nanzhi slave line.

Oh, no, there is another one. Taiyuan Prefecture has to build another railway to Xi'an Prefecture to facilitate future transportation.

Naturally, personnel from the Ministry of Railways and the Ministry of Industry will be responsible for topographical surveys, and the rest, such as recruiting civilian husbands and arranging board and lodging, are all up to you, Master Xu Dingchen!

After Xu Dingchen listened to the request of Sun Jin and Lou Zhilan, the right servant of the Ministry of Railways, Xu Dingchen almost spit out blood.

It was too much, and the retaliation came too fast, and it came so nakedly, without any cover-up, as if it was saying that I just saw you unhappy, don't you have a hard time these days!

Yes, at this time the autumn harvest is over, although basically nothing has been confiscated, the land that should be leveled has been leveled, and the common people have also been idle, just waiting for winter to come so that they can survive the winter.

But Your Majesty, your old man arranged for the construction of the railway so quickly, are you sure this is not revenge?

Even if the official is not in the capital, he still knows what is going on with the railway construction, okay?

The numerous bones of the dead are scattered on both sides of the railway. It is not so much a railway as a road of bones paved with flesh and blood!Although those bones are all slaves, don't feel bad.

But now that you, the old man, have not come to Shanxi to make slaves, are you planning to let the people of Ming Dynasty die?Then put the shit bowl on my body, Xu Dingchen?

Although it is not easy to be the governor of Shanxi, since His Majesty ascended the throne in the seventh year of the apocalypse, he has changed to three, and he is the fourth, but this is too difficult!

Seeing that Xu Dingchen's face was extremely ugly, Lou Zhilan smiled and said, "What's wrong with Mr. Xu?"

Nodding his head and taking another deep breath, Xu Dingchen said, "That's right, Mr. Sun and Mr. Lou must also know the terrain of Shanxi.

Forcing the construction of railways is tantamount to the construction of straight roads and the Great Wall by the first emperor, and they all have to be filled with human lives.Now that Shanxi and Shaanxi are suffering from disasters, it is not an exaggeration to say that there is no harvest, and then driving the people to build railways, isn't it harmful to the people?

When Xu is in his position, he wants to speak out for the people of Shanxi. If His Majesty must build the railway first, he will first remove Xu from the post of governor! "
