170 Countermeasures (Second Update)

The next day, Su Qing received a summons and went to the palace early, and at that time, Xiao Hansu, Mo Xu and Mu Yuchen had also arrived.

Jing Ziheng talked about the drought again, fortunately, Su Qing had already presented it to him before, and after he read it, he said it in the morning court today, and Lu Guogong also agreed, thinking that Xiao Hansu's suggestion was very good.

So Jing Ziheng planned to wait for the drought to be over, and the soldiers would come back, and after rewarding the three armies, they would be promoted.

Su Qing has seen the method of resisting the drought given by Xiao Hansu, it is not an immediate method, but it is excellent for the future, and the thing they have to discuss now is how to carry out the plan smoothly, so that the victims of this disaster can survive the drought smoothly.

At present, although the war has basically subsided, the grain and grass of the three armies must not be moved, and if it moves, it is very likely to shake the fundamentals, so Xiao Hansu's plan is to bring out this batch of disaster relief food from the officials and the rich, that is, to call for donations.

Lu Guogong said that he would donate 1,000 taels of silver first, and other officials would follow at the moment, and those who were able to donate more, and those who were not able to donate less, and the emperor rewarded them one by one, and promised to wait for the disaster to pass, and would give them more.

Su Qing and the others knew in their hearts that Lu Guogong didn't really want to help these disaster-stricken people, he only donated 1,000 taels to a grandfather of the country, how many other officials in the DPRK and China dared to surpass him?

It seems to be helping to raise money for the drought, but in fact it is a disguised suppression of other officials.

Xiao Hansu and the others knew that Lu Guogong wanted to take advantage of the severity of this drought to suppress them. After all, the drought is not a matter of two people, and these people in the DPRK and China alone cannot be saved.

It is estimated that Lu Guocheng is just proud at this time, Xiao Hansu, the arrogant boy, is destined to be deflated this time.

But he never imagined that Jing Ziheng left a hand with him, he only said the first half, but did not say the plan for the second half.

……

The emperor's decree has been issued, this drought is serious, in order to alleviate the drought, the whole city is specially gathered. Those who have money pay. Those who have no money will help the affected people to build a happy land.

In fact, there are many rich people in the capital, but everyone knows it and wants them to come up with silver and food to rescue the people who are now affected by the disaster. That's a fool's dream! If the emperor doesn't do something. Where does the snowflake silver come from?

Xiao Hansu and Mo Xu have also put forward specific countermeasures in the song. The first is the registered donation.

However, the rich people in the capital are all iron roosters who are not plucked by a dime, and most of them are unwilling to take out their money to help others, so someone must promise a certain temptation.

Shinong Industry and Commerce. Merchants are the lowest, but many of them are often rich, but there is also a saying that the rich are not benevolent, so they will not easily take out the silver, at this time, I don't know who passed it on, saying that the emperor intends to use the situation of fundraising to recruit officials!

After hearing this, those rich people desperately sent money to the fundraising place!

However, at the end of the day, it is only a small amount of money, and it does not solve any substantive problems.

In the evening, the emperor also heard this tone, and the next morning Long Yan was furious, and ordered a thorough investigation into who released such nonsense, and finally checked and checked, it turned out to be Lu Guogong who released it, and there is evidence!

When the emperor saw that it was Lu Guogong, he said that it must be the grandfather of the country who cared about the affected people, although the method was wrong, but his heart was commendable, so he did not pursue it, and praised him.

Everyone thought about it, Lu Guogong was in favor of this fundraising proposal, but he only paid 1,000 taels of silver, did he say it in the past? So he will want to help the emperor "share his worries", who made him the auxiliary minister of the auxiliary civil administration!

So he had to wear this high hat if he didn't wear it.

Such a result seems to have gained a lot, but it offended the rich people of the Jing Dynasty, and he hated it in his heart!

The plan has been carried out so far, and this overt and covert fundraising has not been able to raise enough money, so Xiao Hansu single-handedly promoted another plan, that is, the mansions of some officials who have been troubled in recent years.

Speaking of which, I came, after Su Qing and the others left, Su Yi found a few secret guards with good kung fu to pretend to be me, and occasionally went out to commit crimes, but they usually went to the mansions of Lu Guogong's minions or unclean officials.

In order to confuse the public, he also went to the Zhesu Palace, and when Xiao Hansu knew about it, he had a fight with Su Qing and didn't mention it for the time being!

Every time they go back, they never steal anything, they just make a fuss and leave.

Therefore, in the past three years, Lu Guogong has been suspicious, I am really not Su Qing's person, they just happened to receive the Su family's silver, and went to his Lu Guogong's mansion to make a fuss, so I won't mention it for the time being.

On this day, I came and started to act again, they said that although they are bandits, they also want to be officials!

But what if you don't have the money to donate to the officials?

So they decided, robbery!

That night, they randomly chose a wealthy family to rob, but they were just stopped by Su Qing, Xiao Hansu, Mo Xu and Mu Yuchen who passed by in the middle of the night.

They are bandits, and they usually don't pay attention to the movements in the city at all, although the emperor clarified the donation incident, but looking at their attitude, it is clear that they don't know! So the rich families in the capital began to endanger themselves, who knows who they will choose next time they come out to commit crimes?

The emperor thought of a way to alleviate the crisis in the city, and he decreed that in order to relieve the disaster, there was not enough money and food, and as long as the people who contributed money and food were contributed, the state would calculate it on a bi-monthly basis and return it with half a cent of interest!

Obviously, the profit given by the emperor is much higher than the interest stored in the bank, and it is also insured!

Because the Jing Dynasty strictly prohibited usury, and the first emperor felt that the prices in the capital were too high, and wanted to suppress it, he introduced a policy that required the interests of the money village to be no more than three years old, so the general money village is only two cents a year.

And according to the benefits given by the emperor, it is equivalent to the third year of the year, and the insurance is also paid, what reason do they have not to put it in the treasury?

In such a trouble, the silver and grain were all raised, and the rest was for the officials of the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Household to share the main affairs, and the emperor sent Prince Zhesu to be the supervisor in order to prevent them from embezzling it privately.

He wants to have an identity, he has the ability and ability, the point is that he will not be corrupt and pervert the law, and no one will try to buy him!

Because he is an auxiliary military officer, he can't speak in civil affairs, but he still speaks very strongly, and he has a grudge against Lu Guogong, and he will not cooperate with Lu Guogong to speak for the sake of greedy silver, so he is the supervisor this time. (To be continued.) )
