Along the Qinhuai River, Wuyi Lane, Taishi Mansion.

This is the mansion that Kangxi gave to Huang Zongxi, and now it has a plaque bearing the name of Taishi's Mansion. At the entrance of the alley, there is also a stone tablet that reads, "Civil and military officials, soldiers and civilians are waiting here to dismount in sedan chairs."

This stone monument is the legendary Dismounting Monument. It can only be erected at the entrance of the alley outside the homes of high-ranking officials.

At this time, all kinds of carriages and sedan chairs were parked outside Wuyi Lane, which could stretch for several miles along the Qinhuai River.

The owners of these carriages and sedan chairs were all sitting respectfully in the lobby of the Grand Master's Mansion, and they were accompanied by Huang Zongxi's son Huang Baijia and disciple Wan Sida to talk!

These people were not officials, but league leaders from Jiangnan, Zhejiang and other places, and some were profiteers who donated money to Zhu Heji.

They all came from all over the country one after another after Zhu Heji broke through the Zijin Mountain Jiangnan Camp.

What are you here for? Of course, you are here to participate in the Ming Dynasty version of the Jiangnan Council!

Although Zhu Heji never said that he would convene the Jiangnan Council, Huang Zongxi and his disciples were still very proactive in handling this matter for Zhu Heji, and brought together the league training leaders and major officials in the two provinces of Jiangnan and Zhejiang.

The profiteers were all summoned to Jinling City.

Of course, they are so proactive for the sake of the country and the people!

The situation here in Jiangdong is different from that in Guangdong, Fujian, Jiangxi and other places. Guangdong is Zhu Heji’s basic base. Before being “liberated” by Zhu Heji, the two major ethnic groups of Guangdong, especially Chaozhou and Guangfu, were

He had suffered enough from the Qing Dynasty, and after Zhu Heji came to power, he sincerely did many good things for the Cantonese people. Even before he left Guangzhou for Jiangnan, he left the "Dolomite Blast Furnace" to the Cantonese people.

"Graphite crucible steel", "milky white porcelain" (bone china) and other three major specialties!

Earlier, Guangdong's sugar industry was also "super upgraded", turning sugar from a condiment into a powerful weapon related to the rise and fall of the country!

In addition, during the two or three years that Zhu Heji ruled Guangdong, he also held a meeting of all ethnic groups similar to a consultative meeting, completed the equalization of land, taxes, and services, and established Haizhu University College, Guangzhou Public Medical College, and Huangpu Military Academy.

, Guangfu No. 123 Academy and a series of new schools. A Guangzhou Public Hospital was also established to prevent and treat infectious diseases and use allicin to save lives...

It can be said that Zhu Heji spared no effort to benefit his hometown in Guangdong!

Therefore, the people of Guangdong are extremely supportive of him. He can do anything in Guangdong with ease, so Guangdong's social reform has been completed relatively thoroughly.

Fujian Province was handed over to the governance of Yanping King Zhengjing. The Yanping Palace had a deep foundation in Fujian. It had a large number of supporters both in southern Fujian and in Fuzhou Shiyi. Moreover, the grassroots society in Fujian at this time was similar to that in Guangdong.

The power of clans is also quite large. Therefore, the resistance to the implementation of land equalization based on communal ownership of land by clans is quite limited.

In addition, due to the coastal border relocation implemented by the Manchus in Fujian, the best land in Fujian was actually abandoned!

Moreover, the population of Fujian also suffered heavy losses due to the Ming and Qing wars and coastal relocation. The contradiction between man and land is quite unprominent...Compared to the hometown of eight mountains, one water and one farmland, the Hokkien and Fuzhou people in Fujian

I still prefer to go out to sea and work hard.

Therefore, Zhu Heji's overseas policy was actually very in line with the needs of the Fujian people.

Under this circumstance, Fujian's reforms of equalizing land, equalizing taxes, and equalizing labor were also progressing smoothly.

The situation in Jiangxi is quite different from that of Guangdong and Fujian.

Jiangxi is a mountainous inland province. The grassroots clan power is not as strong as that of Guangdong and Fujian. It has no desire for the ocean and there is no such thing as coastal migration. The sharp population decline caused by the Ming and Qing wars has been alleviated to a certain extent.

Because of the contradiction between man and land, Jiangxi was considered a relatively peaceful province before it was captured by Zhu Heji... The local people were gentry and although they also welcomed the Ming Dynasty, they were far less enthusiastic than Guangdong and Fujian.

Hope Ming Dynasty comes.

And Zhu Heji has not yet brought the "equal land, equal taxes, and equal service" that was successfully implemented in Guangdong and Fujian to Jiangxi. After all, it is the rear area of ​​Prime Minister Zhuge who resisted the Wu and Zhou Dynasties in the west and resisted the Qing demon in the north. He had to do his best to

To maintain stability, Zhu Heji handed over Jiangxi to Zhuge Sanhe with full power to govern.

Zhuge Sanhe was busy with the military and did not have much energy to deal with internal affairs, so he hired a large number of Ming Dynasty officials from Jiangxi to maintain them first.

So now the situation in Jiangxi Province is the "most enlightened"...the imperial power does not go to the countryside, and grassroots governance is extremely loose. Even the tax collection standards are based on the Jiangxi tax and grain quotas established under the leadership of Zhang Juzheng during the Wanli Period.

Come here, the annual tax and grain quota is 2.61 million thousand dan of white rice.

However, since the scholar-bureaucrats in Jiangxi had not participated in any consultative councils and had not obtained the right to conduct group training, they did not have the strength to challenge the Ming Dynasty. If Zhu Heji wanted to forcefully promote the "three equals reform" in Jiangxi, it would not be a big deal.

of difficulty.

The situation in Jiangnan and Zhejiang provinces is complicated!

This is the hometown of the Donglin Party, rich in gossip!

Moreover, before Kangxi ran away, in order to make more money from Jiangnan and Zhejiang, he opened a consultative meeting and sold all the league training rights in the counties in Jiangnan and Zhejiang.

This is a big deal, the talkers now have armed forces!

This armed mouth cannon is much more powerful than the unarmed one.

When Zhu Heji marched into Zhejiang and Jiangnan, he only occupied a few important cities due to insufficient troops. Most of the county towns were decided by spreading the message... Who should the message be sent to? Of course it was sent to those who donated money.

The class team is practicing.

Although they didn't have many regiment members, all the Qing officials in each county had their seals and fled. This group of donated classes and training groups naturally filled the power vacuum and became the rulers of most counties in Jiangnan and Zhejiang.

.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! As soon as Zhu Heji's message arrived, they became "rebel leaders", and their rule gained a certain legitimacy.

In order to strengthen their own legitimacy, they provided a large number of civilians, ships and supplies for Zhu Heji's Northern Expeditionary Army... Now they were all heroes in the fight against the Qing Dynasty and the restoration of the Ming Dynasty!

Zhu Dajianguo has only taken over one-third of the world now. Even if he wants to kill the heroes, it won't be now, right?

These heroes who fought against the Qing Dynasty and restored the Ming Dynasty, the profiteers who donated money to Zhu Heji, as well as scholar-bureaucrats such as Huang Zongxi and Wan Sida were actually all in the same group.

So Huang Zongxi waved to them, and they came to Nanjing...to participate in the Jiangnan Consultative Conference to raise funds for the imperial court!

"Although the capture of Jiangdong by the Saint of the State Supervisor went smoothly this time, it was very expensive... The military discipline of the Ming army was actually fed with money! The Saint of the State Supervisor gave rewards to the Guangdong and Fujian soldiers below.

But it’s too big, this money is worth every pound!

According to the information that the master learned, the officers and soldiers of the second town that attacked Zijinshan probably received two million taels, and the four towns that attacked Anqing and the seventh town that raided the territory outside Nanjing all received one million taels.

Coupled with the navy's income, the reward alone is eight million taels!"

"Eight million! This style, this financial resources... If Emperor Weizong can give out rewards like this, it is really not certain that the five years of Ping Liao will be over! But my father feels that this expenditure is still too large. After all, the imperial court

Last year’s annual income was less than 5 million! So if the imperial court wants to make up for this shortfall, I’m afraid it will have to rely on everyone here to raise funds! Are you willing to help the imperial court raise money?”

The ones who were talking were Huang Zongxi's favorite disciple Wan Sida and his precious son Huang Baijia, and the questions they raised... If the Emperor Chongzhen who hanged himself on Meishan had heard it, he would probably be moved to tears.

They actually took the initiative to discuss with their subordinates how to get a few million for the court to make up for the shortfall, even when Zhu and Ji didn't ask for money.
