- As the Ming Emperor who claimed to be "rich all over the world", it is indeed shocking that he would now lend money to outsiders.
However, this is not surprising to Zhao Hongyu.
Although the Ming Emperor claimed to be wealthy from all over the world, in fact, that was not the case at all.
The Emperor Yinzi of the Ministry of Revenue has no way to get involved. That belongs to the officials. Even if the emperor wants to intervene, those departments in charge of the household department or those involved will fight to the death with the Ming Emperor.
¡°The only thing the Emperor of Ming Dynasty could use was his own internal funds.
Of course, the relevant officials below used the excuse of the emperor or the dynasty from time to time to impose various taxes on the people to plunder the people. This is a fact.
After all, the taxes collected will be scratched every time they pass through a layer.
Therefore, the money handed over to the Ministry of Accounts will eventually shrink to the point where it is impossible to look directly at it.
This is also the reason why the tax burden of the Ming Dynasty is only more than two million taels per year at this time of year.
With this little money, we can¡¯t even pay the salaries of officials, let alone provide disaster relief or rest and reorganize soldiers.
Even at this time, the emperor has to tighten his belt.
Of course, this is just a way. Zhu Shangwu would not have gotten so mixed up no matter what. And none of the officials of the Ming Dynasty were so poor.
Those guys who say they are poor are usually doing it for others to see.
This is just a way to show your integrity.
Seriously, among the officials of the Ming Dynasty, look at which one is not extremely rich. Anyone with a certain status would have tens of thousands of dollars worth of land in their hometown.
There are tens of thousands of acres of land, and they are just officials who have not done well.
So, the truly poor person is really the emperor.
"However, Zhao Hongyu thinks. Didn't he spend more than ten million taels of silver to solve many problems for Zhu Shangwu?
how?
Are you short of money now?
??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????Is the Ming Dynasty Court a bottomless pit that can¡¯t be filled no matter how hard it is?
Therefore, when Zhao Hongyu asked this question, Pang Pang, the envoy to Jincheng, was blinded.
He didn¡¯t even know how to answer.
Is it possible that all the money told to Zhao Hongyu was stolen by officials at all levels?
?Obviously, this cannot be said.
Fortunately, Zhao Hongyu did not continue to ask further questions on this issue, which made Pang Daren breath a sigh of relief.
"The emperor asked me to borrow another ten million taels of silver". The giant man lowered his head, raised his fleshy right hand and stretched out a finger.
Damn it!
Ten million taels, you think my money is just blown by the strong wind.
Yes, my silver is indeed cheap. It is made of industrial silver from the virtual world. But even if it is cheap, it only costs a few cents per gram.
According to the weights and measures of the Ming Dynasty in this era, the price of one tael of silver would cost Zhao Hongyu at least more than thirty virtual soft girl coins.
So, calculate it according to this. Ten million taels of silverthat's hundreds of millions of soft girl coins.
Even though Zhao Hongyu is rich and powerful, he can't stand this kind of thing.
Therefore, Zhao Hongyu looked a little embarrassed.
The fat man raised his head and found that Zhao Hongyu's face had become extremely ugly. My heart trembled for a moment.
In fact, Pang Pangren also felt that the amount his emperor wanted to borrow was indeed a bit large when he opened his mouth.
You know, Ming Dynasty¡¯s finances are now in dire straits. The total tax revenue for the whole year is only more than 2 million taels.
??????????????????????????????? But you are good, you have five years of national tax revenue as soon as you open your mouth. Is it possible that you really treat others as fools?
Don¡¯t say people are rich. Even if I have money, why should I lend it to you?
Well, looking at it from another perspective, if I were in Zhao Hongyu's position, to be honest, my attitude towards the emperor's loan request would be absolutely non-committal.
Not to mention the more than 10 million taels previously, this time it¡¯s another 10 million taels.
If it succeeds this time, how many years will it take the Ming Dynasty to pay off the debt?
For decades, it has been said that it is less.
After all, it is impossible for all of Ming Dynasty¡¯s tax revenue to be used for repayment.
???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????OUTOUTOUT ???
Alas!
Most people are unwilling to think about this issue.
It¡¯s so painful.
"What does Zhu Shangwu want so much money for?"
After a long time, Zhao Hongyu finally spoke, but his tone was not very good.
Panda still had his head lowered, like an angry little daughter-in-law.
At this time, everyone also felt that the atmosphere was a little subtle.
"Actually, it's not money that makes Zhao Hongyu angry. He still has hundreds of millions of soft girl coins. In the virtual account, his deposits have reached tens of billions.
After all, he spent a lot of money building Jincheng during this period.
But it is still very easy to use part of this money to buy industrial silver as a currency of this era.
What he was angry about was that Zhu Shangwu allowed the officials below to corrupt the more than 10 million taels of silver he lent to Zhu Shangwu more than a year ago.
This guy actually didn¡¯t show any signs at all.
¡°At least you should get angry and kill a few people.
But luckily for him, not only did he not do this, but he came to ask me to borrow money again.
If this hole is not sealed, then those people below will become more and more emboldened when they see that there is nothing wrong with this.
By then, no matter how much money I lend him, I will not be able to support Daming.
Speaking of which, I have a good impression of Zhu Shangwu, a fat man who does not exist in another time and space, but is now an emperor in this time and space, and who likes to draw cartoons.
¡°Otherwise, he wouldn¡¯t have lent him money at that time.
Don¡¯t you just want to see the Ming Dynasty finally collapse and become a slave under the iron heel of the alien race like it did in another time and space?
Now, lending him money gave the Ming court a chance to calm down. He also led his own people to station in Jincheng, building Jincheng while attacking Houjin.
"However, I never imagined that the Ming court was rotten to the core.
In the end, a peasant uprising similar to another time and space broke out, which made Zhao Hongyu feel a little embarrassed.
Speak the truth. Zhao Hongyu was unwilling to use troops against the Ming Dynasty.
Although he comes from another time and space, he is a descendant of Yan and Huang after all.
¡°Once we use troops against the Ming Dynasty, all those killed will be the Yanhuang ethnic group in this time and space.
Psychologically, Zhao Hongyu cannot accept this.
So, Zhao Hongyu also has the same mentality for those farmers who cannot survive.
Damn it!
I originally thought this could be avoided, but it eventually happened.
"Five million taels! I can lend you five million taels of silver. In addition to the more than ten million taels of silver in the early stage, you Ming Dynasty will owe me twenty million taels. After you go back, you ask Zhu Shangwu to remember at this point!"
He sighed in his heart. In the end, Zhao Hongyu agreed.
The big man's eyes widened in disbelief.
He thought that his errand would definitely not succeed.
After all, no one would do that.
¡°However, he didn¡¯t expect that Zhao Hongyu actually agreed.
Although it is not the ideal ten million taels, it is five million taels of silver.
But with five million taels of silver, the Ming court would indeed be much more relaxed. Regarding the corrupt situation in the northwest. It will also become more powerful.
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?
¡°Oh, no, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of Song Dynasty is really a good person.
Is this the legendary story of how many people are stupid? Come quickly!
Before Panda could speak, Zhao Hongyu raised his hand to stop him from speaking. Then he looked at him with an extremely stern expression and said: "Bring me a message to Zhu Shangwu, your emperor. I can lend him money, but I don't want the money to be corrupted by those officials. And I I have to get him to give me an explanation for the money I lent him more than years ago. At least he has to show some attitude to stop the officials below. Otherwise, it won¡¯t take long. Don¡¯t you think Are you asking me to borrow money again? "
Zhao Hongyu agreed to borrow money, but the money was not without conditions.
And this condition is to let Zhu Shangwu rectify the officialdom and stop the corruption.
"In addition to speaking to your emperor, these words must also be conveyed to Wang Zhen on my behalf."
The Wang Zhen Zhao Hongyu mentioned was the eunuch beside Zhu Shangwu.
This Wang Zhen can be regarded as a person who left a name in another time and space.
Although Wang Zhen served not Zhu Shangwu, but Chongzhen.
But one thing is certain, Wang Zhen is indispensable for the loyalty of the Ming Dynasty.
In another time and space, the rebel army captured the capital. It was he who led the eunuchs in the palace to resist until the end, and accompanied Chongzhen throughout his life.
"Compared to those men who had eggs at that time, this eunuch who lacked something looked more like a man.
And Wang Zhen in this time and space also has this kind of character.
Although he is an incomplete man because he is a eunuch, he will always have some shortcomings in his character and behavior.
¡°But in Zhao Hongyu¡¯s view, these can be ignored.
¡°At least, with him by Zhu Shangwu¡¯s side, he can help Zhu Shangwu.
Many of the members of the intelligence department deployed by Zhao Hongyu in the capital had to deal with the chief steward of the inner palace.
Therefore, Zhao Hongyu is very clear about Wang Zhen¡¯s temperament.
Precisely because of this, he felt that if he wanted Zhu Shangwu to become more decisive, Wang Zhen would have to give him some advice.
Of course, doing so would do no harm to Ming Dynasty, and Wang Zhen should be aware of this.
Only Zhu Shangwu, who only wants to be an ¡®h cartoonist¡¯, would not understand this.
Then, it is necessary to let Wang Zhen understand his attitude and let him express it in front of Zhu Shangwu.
"Your Highness and the prince still know each other?"
Pang Pang raised his head and glanced at Zhao Hongyu, with a hint of joy on his face.
It¡¯s like something good happened.
Zhao Hongyu nodded: "Well, Eunuch Wang and I are quite familiar, and I even call him eldest brother when we meet."
"Greetings to my godfather!" As soon as Zhao Hongyu finished speaking, he saw Pang Pang, a man in his 60s, bowing to his head as a gift. Zhao Hongyu was frightened. He never thought that Pang Pang, a man in his sixties, would be like this.
"How did you say this? Why did you kneel down to me and call me grandpa!"
Zhao Hongyu¡¯s eyes widened. He had seen many people and experienced many storms.
But for this matter, he has really never seen it (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster! - Didn't finish reading?
