The national treasury has 190,000 taels, and it owes 10 million taels in wages. This is the Ming Dynasty that Zhu Heng took over.
But he didn't panic. Because he understands a truth: as long as the method is right, the mess can be a gold mine.
Corrupt officials have money, so let them use money to atone for their sins. If the nobles have land, then let them use the land to pay off their debts. Shanxi merchants collaborated with the enemy and ransacked their homes. The vassal king felt aggrieved and let him out as a swordsman. Do the refugees want to rebel? Given food to eat, they are the best soldiers. The officer is disobedient? The Martial Arts Hall re-cultivated a group of people.
Money has come, the army has stabilized, tax sources have been opened, and maritime trade has opened up. Huang Taiji waited outside the pass for the collapse of the Ming Dynasty, but what was waiting was bastions and muskets. The Jiangnan gentry was waiting to see the joke in the south, but what was waiting was King Fu and Yin Tian's investigation. The Europeans were waiting at sea to grab business, but what was waiting was the Zheng family fleet and the shipping department.
Others relied on the system to time travel, while Ju Ming relied on accounting. This Ming Dynasty allowed him to run an empire.
