805 Heart of the Eight Flags

"You go back and tell Xiao Letian, anyway, the imperial court has received tens of millions of cash, and the money is in our hands, and we won't suffer at all!

"Although he Xiao Lotian is rich, I don't believe that without 10 million taels of cash at once, his finances can withstand it!"

This is a scoundrel, and those who borrow money in later generations and don't pay it back, and still treat themselves as uncles. I borrowed your money, your money is in my pocket, and if you pay it back, it will reward you, and if you don't pay it back, you dare to bite me?

It's a big deal, it's a big deal, it's a pot of porridge, and then I have even more reason not to pay you back.

I didn't expect Xiao Letian's hob meat to sneer, "I'm afraid, of course I'm afraid, that's more than 10 million cash silver, if it really goes afloat, Ryukyu won't be able to breathe for ten years......"

"But we can't breathe, but at least we're alive...... When the time comes, we will make a big deal of publicity, expose all the treaties signed by the imperial court with the British, French, Russians, and Americans, let the people know about the land you cede, and even expose the dirty and smelly secrets of your Manchu court......"

"It's just a shot and two scattered, who is afraid of who can't!"

"...... Get out of here!" Yi didn't want any of the prince's decency, and scolded and blasted the Ryukyu envoy out.

Turning around, Yi took his hat and rushed to the Forbidden City, his face was gloomy as if it was going to rain heavily along the way, this time the order to steal the banknote process was given by him, and the final command was also him, patting his chest at that time to promise that there would be no big problems, but he didn't expect Xiao Lotian to flip the table for a few bonds.

The empress dowager of the two palaces and the two princes in the Yangxin Palace were gathered together, and there was not a single Hanchen present, because the whole thing was a ghost played by the Manchu royal family, and they didn't even know about this plan if they had nothing to do with other Hanchen.

The four Manchu real power figures sat together with iron faces, and there was no palace maid or eunuch around, which was already the top secret of the royal family.

Yi sneered and said, "Open the skylight and say something bright, we are all descendants and daughters-in-law of the Aixin Jueluo family, our brothers are the descendants of Aixin Jueluo Zhenggen, and the two sisters-in-law are also recognized by all countries as the women of the Aixin Jueluo family...... We always have to think about the interests of the Aixin Jueluo family in whatever we do......"

"Why did I go to all the trouble to make the recipe for paper money? Am I doing it for myself? Isn't it to earn more money for the court and train more recruits......

"If you don't know the price of firewood and rice, if you don't train the new army, you don't know that this is a bottomless pit...... The new foreign guns shipped from France cost more than 60 taels of silver for chairs, full military uniforms, cowhide armed belts, leather boots, backpacks, bayonets, water bottles, lunch boxes...... Scattered together, it will cost more than 120 taels of silver ......"

"Xishan has now gathered a total of 15,000 new troops, which is 1.8 million taels of silver...... It can't be considered a cannon, the price of a new cannon is 7,000 taels, and it can't be bargained, what will you let me do......"

"The new army of the imperial capital is flattered by the Qing Dynasty, if we can't even buy forty or fifty fast guns, what new army will we run......?

Yi came up to complain, he was originally from a foreign background, and the Beijing division was nicknamed Devil Six, and he was really clear about the purchase price of Western arms.

Not to mention corruption, this money is really not expensive, because it is now the middle of the 19th century, the scale and efficiency of industrial production are not very high, the cost of weapons and equipment is very amazing, plus the freight is a huge amount of money.

In fact, at the beginning of the 20th century, that is, after 1900, the cost of purchasing new ordnance in Beiyang was also very high. At that time, 12 7.5 cm caliber mountain guns imported from Britain, plus 6,000 shells, the purchase price was 170,000 taels of silver.

Fifty years later, the West's steelmaking technology and industrial capacity had improved considerably, and the cost was much lower than it had been in 1867. Therefore, now the foreigners give Yi Bao a fast cannon 7,000 taels, which is really a conscience price.

Listening to Yi's complaints, the Queen Mother of the Two Palaces frowned, "Sixth, we all know that you are difficult, and no one says anything about you, don't worry about it yourself......"

I don't know what's wrong today, even the always taciturn Yi Xun is angry, "I don't blame my sixth brother for being angry, these days, the Admiral of the Nine Gates and the officials of the Shuntian Mansion have reported to me, and those Eight Banners disciples in the Beijing Division are talking about paper money in teahouses, restaurants, and theaters all day long......"

"These conscienceless little bastards, they see that if we print more money, it will depreciate the value of the bonds...... They are actually speaking ill of our court behind their backs!"

"Bastard, are we doing this for ourselves? not for the sake of the Qing Dynasty...... But for the sake of that little profit, they leaked the news and took the lead in selling bonds, and the price of Beijing rose by 30%!"

"I can see it now, in my heart, they don't have a heart with us, they are absolutely this Qing Kingdom is our love for the Xinjue Luo family, they just follow the blessings, as long as they let them eat a little grievance, they will immediately turn their faces!"

"That's right, they have learned what kind of stinky problems the Han people have since they entered the customs, and they are all personal little abacus, be careful, the invincible Eight Banners Iron Army has long been dispersed......"

The topic was very heavy, and everyone was speechless, because it involved a lot of old news and secrets within the Manchus. Originally, the Manchurians were a military aristocratic group, and several tribes came together to rob and strengthen themselves, and the Aixin Jueluo family was only the leader with the hardest fists.

In the past, everyone had a common enemy, and they went to the south to find Han people to rob together, and came together for a common ideal, united and intimate. But when it comes to sitting on the country, when everything doesn't have to work hard, people's hearts will slowly disperse.

It was not easy for the three generations of old people before the founding of the People's Republic of China to remember the time of Jin Ge Iron Horse, but the Eight Banners born three generations later all grew up with hardcore crops, and they have never suffered since they were children, and they are all blessed.

The children who grew up in this batch of honey have no ideals and ambitions, they are unconvinced when they open their eyes every day, and he is the third child.

What's so great about the emperor, according to the old surname of the Manchurians, the emperor has to call me brother! If they encounter any unfair distribution, they will even light a fire and jump to the street to scold the streets, as if all the rivers and mountains of the Qing Dynasty were fought down by his ancestors alone.
