Zhang Jie hurriedly roared and hurried to meet Qin Jin.

"The doctor has heard that King Qi donated his family resources to help the needy officials, which is clearly a ...... to buy people's hearts."

His expression was a little angry, Qin Jin shrugged, and said helplessly:

"So what? Do you want to send back the real money that King Qi took out?"

Zhang Jie saw that Qin Jin didn't seem to understand what he was really worried about, so he hurriedly said:

"King Qi's donation of family assets is clearly to win the position of the prince, and, after the investigation of the subordinates, King Xiang is a ghost from behind the scenes, and eighty percent is this King Qi. How can such a suspicious person ......"

Qin Jin already has a general idea of all the inside stories of King Qi's ghost behind his back, and as for whether he is a suitable candidate for the prince, the answer is obviously no.

"It's not good for us to interfere in this matter head-on, otherwise we will fall under the pretext of interfering in the selection of the prince, and we will definitely leave endless trouble in the future!"

When Zhang Jie heard this, he said angrily:

"Shall we just let him buy people's hearts?"

Qin Jin smiled and said:

"It's okay to let it go, maybe we can get him to pay a little more......"

"He, how can he be obedient?"

Qin Jin motioned to Zhang Jie to be restless, and then explained in detail the method he had just thought of. When Zhang Jie heard this, he high-fived and said quickly.

Ten Princes' Mansion, Qiwang Mansion, Zuo Xiaojie entered the back hall angrily, and scared Li Qi, who was taking a nap in the afternoon, and the whole person suddenly fell asleep, and saw Zuo Xiaojie's face full of anger, so he asked worriedly:

"What is Mr. Zuo angry about?"

"Old dog Xia Yuanji, the political affairs hall issued a notice today, calling on the clan to contribute to the country, and several side clans have already donated family funds, and the amount is only a lot more than ours!"

"How is this possible? Did they give away all their possessions?"

Zuo Xiaojie slapped his palm heavily on the desk beside him.

"No matter how much they donate, our limelight can be regarded as being robbed cleanly, and we let Xia Yuanji's old dog pick it up for nothing. ”

Only then did King Qi react, it turned out that half of the wealth he had worked so hard to accumulate had been lost, how could he be willing?

"If, I mean, if we make a number one, will we, will we be able to save some face?"

Zuo Xiaojie said:

"That's the only way to do it now, you can't make a door to grab the lead, but you're being overtaken!"

"The selection of the crown prince is a matter between my brothers and others, why do those side relatives come to join in the fun?"

Li Qi couldn't figure this out, but Zuo Xiaojie had already seen through the subtlety.

"The clans have been suppressed by the Emperor Taishang for a long time, and now Xia Yuanji has given them the opportunity to show their faces and participate in the government affairs, how can they not work hard? Moreover, it is clearly written in the proclamation that those who donate a corresponding amount can not only enter the knighthood, but also make up for the rank of heir, to put it bluntly, this money is not spent in vain!"

"No wonder, no wonder, it turns out that Xia Yuanji is actually playing this kind of calculation!"

Although Li Qi was unwilling, if he stopped halfway, the money he had put in before would be completely wasted, and now the only choice is to continue walking.

"Sir, how much more should I donate?"

Zuo Xiaojie frowned in contemplation and stretched out a finger.

"Donate half more, and then we'll see how it goes!"

Li Qi only felt that his heart was dripping blood.

"That's all there is to it!"

In just three days, the government hall has received millions of donations from various clans. For the empty treasury, this is simply an astronomical amount, and at the same time, Xia Yuanji is so happy that he can't keep his mouth shut. Since he was beaten into the government office, there are countless places where he has used money, and he has been chased and asked for money by the chiefs of various ministries every day, so that he has been tormented by the pain of this kind of skillful woman who has no rice to cook every moment of the day.

Now that he suddenly has so much money in his hand, Xia Yuanji feels that he can finally sit back and relax.

Of course, he didn't dare to specialize in these millions of dollars, and he had to consult Qin Jin to have the final place.

"I really didn't expect that the clans who usually look very low-key would have such a rich family asset! My Datang year-old income is only 10,000 yuan, and it is not difficult for them to donate a few days, I am afraid that it will not be difficult to break 10 million!"

For Xia Yuanji's emotion, Qin Jinbao smiled.

"Now Xia Xianggong knows why Qin turned a blind eye to those so-called 'difficult' officials, right?

Looking at Qin Jin's rather playful eyes, Xia Yuanji suddenly realized something, and couldn't help but blush.

"Ashamed, ashamed, subordinates, subordinates are also clumsy for a while, so they ......"

Qin Jin laughed and waved his hand, interrupting Xia Yuanji's defense, and then turned the topic to this huge amount of money.

"It's best to earmark this money, and not only that, but also set up a special person to take care of it. ”

Hearing this, Xia Yuanji's heart was half cold, if the funds were earmarked, this huge amount of silver money could only be used to help the suffering officials in the end, and his situation in government affairs could not improve at all.

But he was still not reconciled, so he wanted to fight again.

"The officials are 'stuck', and how can they use so much money, it is better to ...... Allocate a little bit to government affairs, too, to solve the urgent need......"

Qin Jin Dao:

"The place where the officials use the money is a small number, the real need to help is the people in Chang'an City, since the fall of Chang'an, the Fan Hu is raging, many people's homes were burned and destroyed, this money can be taken out of part of the money to repair the house, as for the problem of making a living, as long as the market is calm, the people can naturally return to the right track, each has its own way of making money, the so-called giving it to fish is not as good as giving it to fish!"

The implication is that this money will definitely not be used to help the people eat and drink. Xia Yuanji was still unwilling.

"Well, it won't take so much money!"

Qin Jin smiled slightly, knowing that Xia Yuanji was crazy about money, and if he didn't give him some benefits, he was afraid that it would dampen his enthusiasm.

"If there is any difficulty in the political affairs hall, you can borrow 100,000 yuan to the household department first, remember, you will have to pay it back in the future!"

Hearing this, Xia Yuanji almost spurted out a mouthful of old blood, and only after he broke his mouth did he pull out 100,000 yuan from Qin Jin, and he still borrowed it. Since he can't dispose of the money at will, he wants to get his hands on the errand of supervision, and when the time comes, he can do expedient measures even if he borrows and repays.

"The candidate for supervision, I don't know if the doctor has a plan?"

Qin Jin nodded.

"Zhangjie is quite capable as an official, so let this person be responsible. ”

Xia Yuanji's last glimmer of hope was dashed, in fact, he should have expected it a long time ago, how could Qin Jin let him supervise it, didn't he let people who had been hungry for three days and three nights guard the fragrant meat?

After being silent for a while, Qin Jin said slowly:

In addition to helping the needy officials and people, this money has a more important purpose. ”

Xia Yuanji pouted disapprenomerly, how could it be more important than solving the urgent task of government affairs in his opinion?

"Education!"

"Huh?"

"Education! Teaching and educating people is the foundation of the country, since the 14th year of the Tianbao fight, the war has been raging for many years, the people have been displaced, and education has naturally declined,......

Using this money for education, Xia Yuanji really didn't expect that in the habits of the world, reading and learning words is a family matter, and it depends more on the good family who has the conditions to study, and now he suddenly heard that Qin Jin wants to subsidize private readers, although he feels that it is contrary to habit, but he finally feels that this is a good thing.

Qin Jin sighed lightly again.

"And today's talents, half of them are from poor families, Qin was born in a poor family, and he knows that it is not easy to study, if there is enough capital for studying......"

Qin Jin said these words not only have the emotion of this life, but also the memory of the previous life, if these poor children can have better conditions to study, it can be regarded as a good thing. Of course, his intention to run a school is not just for his own feelings, but more importantly, to break the monopoly of the world's elites on the government and social resources.

Especially in Chang'an and other places for a long time, he found that the influence of the family is often even stronger than that of the government. This is a very abnormal phenomenon, when the central government is strong, the power of the local clans is naturally suppressed, once the central government finally subdues, the rise of local power, the family clan has become the most powerful foundation of these local powers, therefore, the original history of the division of the feudal towns, by no means only the decline of the central government, in addition to the change of production relations, the local family clan is too deep-rooted is also a reason that cannot be ignored.

Therefore, after Qin Jin seized control of Chang'an, the first thing he did was to run schools to revitalize education, and it would not take long, but if he could hold out for ten or twenty years, these officials who had been educated and entered the imperial examination would be all over the Tang Dynasty officialdom.

"Running a school?"

The idea that the government runs a school for the children of good families to study, seems to be too wishful thinking in Xia Yuanji's opinion. There are tens of millions of people in the world, and if you study year after year, the cost will be incomprehensible.

After Qin Jin heard his worries, he said:

Xia Xianggong's worries are very reasonable, and he can try it out in Guanzhong Sanfu first, and if the results are good, he will implement it in the eastern capital of Henan within three or five years. ”

"Doctor Mingjian!"

Suddenly, Qin Jin felt that the scene in front of him was a little funny. Xia Yuanji is already a servant of his subordinates, and he is actually submissive to a royal historian, and power is really a strange thing.

After another two days, the funds donated by the clans in Beijing were like snowballs, and the amount was huge beyond Xia Yuanji's expectations. And most of the family assets donated by King Qi have been submerged in it, and there is almost no trace of it.

After learning that his plan had completely failed, King Qi was so angry that he fell ill, and even beat Zuo Xiaojie, the mansion who came up with the idea, with a stick, and then blasted out of the Ten Princes' Mansion.

Pity this talented man Zuo Xiaojie who was in the Ten Kings' Mansion for a while, he was full of embarrassment, and no one paid attention to him after lying on the street for a long time.
