When Li Shimin heard Dai Guan's words, he sat there and pondered, now the Turks have been on the border of Koubian, and the pressure on the border is very great, and if there is not enough military spending, it will be difficult to fight on the front line.

"Your Majesty, no matter what, I will send 200,000 yuan this time, and I will send it from the capital to the border within ten days!" Dai Zhou looked at Li Shimin and continued.

"Well, how much grain can you raise in ten days from the Ministry of Civil Affairs?" Li Shimin thought for a moment and asked.

"Back to Your Majesty, up to 30,000 yuan!" Dai Xuan lowered his head and said, he really couldn't get the money.

"That's it, and there's still a gap of 170,000 yuan?" Li Shimin looked at Dai Zhou in surprise and asked.

"Yes, in the past few years, military spending has been high, and the Ministry of Civil Affairs has been unable to make ends meet, so there is really no money." Dai Xuan still bowed his head and said.

Li Shimin stood up, walked down, and then paced in the study of the Ganlu Palace, thinking of a way.

After a while, Li Shimin said: "You go back and think of a way first, and I will also think of a way to see if I can raise all the money." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty, please forgive your sins, it is the ministers who are not doing their best." Dai Xuan arched his hand to Li Shimin and said.

Li Shimin waved his hand and motioned for him to go out.

"Go and call Lizhi to come over, I will ask her if I have something!" Li Shimin said to Wang De beside him.

"Your Majesty, Her Royal Highness the princess may have gone out, she has been going out every day during this time." Wang De thought about it for a while, looked at Li Shimin and asked.

"Well, when you go out, you will explain to the maids in his palace and tell Lizhi that when you come back, come to the Manna Palace." Li Shimin said to Wang De.

Wang De immediately gave up and went out.

And Li Lizhi did go out, now that Wei Hao has been arrested, the things of the paper workshop and the ceramic workshop have all fallen on her, especially the batch of ceramics that have just come out of the kiln, which now need to be sold, fortunately, those ceramics are not worried about selling, and now Li Liqin has been collecting money.

In the evening, Li Lizhen pulled 20,000 yuan back to the palace and sent it to the inner money, now there is a lot of money in the inner money, Li Lizhen saw that there were almost 40,000 yuan in the treasury, and she was still very satisfied, thinking that there is no problem with the internal money this year, and the marriage on the eldest brother's side, the money is almost spent, and it is estimated that there are still 10,000 yuan on it, and the remaining money is enough for this year's internal expenses.

When she returned to her bedroom, she learned from the maid that her father was looking for her, so she carried the dishes she brought back from Juxian Building, one to the Lizheng Palace, and the other to the Ganlu Palace, and she hadn't eaten yet.

"Father!" After Li Lizhen entered the Ganlu Palace, she saw Li Shimin watching the recital, so she shouted with a smile.

"Reich is back? Yo, I came back with the food, and it happened that my father hadn't eaten yet! When Li Shimin heard Li Liqing's voice, he looked up and said with a smile.

"I specially brought it here for my father's meal." Li Lizhi said with a smile.

And Wang De on the side immediately took it over, brought out the meals, and at the same time asked others to bring the flatbread.

"Father, this is a duck leg, and this is a stir-fried mutton!" Li Lizhi smiled and served Li Shimin vegetables.

"You eat too, it's better to be my daughter, others don't have the ability to bring vegetables out of Juxian Building!" Li Shimin said with a smile to Li Liqing.

"Hehe, my father wants to eat it, and my daughter will bring it to you in the future!" Li Lizhi said happily.

This is indeed his prerogative, and the entire Juxian Building can only be brought away by her, a guest.

"Well, girl, I want to ask you, how much money does Wei Hao have over there, and how much can he borrow this time? Also, how much money can you get in 10 days? Li Shimin sat there, looked at Li Li and asked.

"Ah, in ten days? This, now Wei Hao has almost 70,000 guan money, you know, of which 20,000 guan money is the money for the sale of porcelain in the last batch, and the other 50,000 guan money is the deposit collected, this time the ceramics can be sold for about 30,000 guan money, but because of the deposit, it is estimated that the account can only be about 30,000 guan money, today I pulled back 20,000 guan money, tomorrow those porcelain are bought, and there are about 10,000 guan money. ”

When Li Lizhi heard this, she immediately reported to Li Shimin, and then looked at Li Shimin and asked, "Father, is the court short of money?" ”

"Well, there is a lack of money, there is a shortage of money on the other side of the border, and there is a shortfall of 200,000 yuan!" Li Shimin nodded heavily.

"200,000 yuan? Father, it's not enough, Wei Hao and I can get up to 120,000 yuan in ten days, and now Wei Hao is locked up in the cell, and the porcelain can't be burned, if it can be burned, you can get 20,000 or 30,000 yuan, which is about the same. Li Lizhi thought about it for a while, looked at Li Shimin and said.

"You said let Wei Hao out?" Li Shimin looked at Li Li and asked.

"Father, don't let it go, right? If they are released, Uncle Cheng and they will definitely have opinions, and they will retaliate against Wei Hao when the time comes. Li Lizhi thought about it for a while and spoke.

"Father also thinks so, let him be inside, it's safe, and when they are angry, this matter will not be a thing, but now that it's released, isn't this obvious favoritism?" Li Shimin nodded and said.

"However, there is still 70,000 yuan missing, what should I do?" Li Lizhi looked at Li Shimin and continued to ask.

"The Ministry of Civil Affairs can raise 30,000 yuan! There is still 40,000 yuan missing! Li Shimin then spoke.

"Then, father, there is still about 20,000 yuan in the inner house, you still need to talk to the queen mother about this matter, if all of them are transferred, other people in the harem may have opinions." Li Lizhi then reminded Li Shimin and said.

"Oh, there's still 20,000 yuan in the house?" When Li Shimin heard this, he looked at Li Lizhen in surprise.

"Father, what do those officials in the court do to eat? Why not as good as a Wei Hao? Li Lizhi said a little dissatisfied.

"Silly girl, there are many places in the court that need money, in recent years, the world's taxes have only been about 1 million yuan, and the Turkic side, constantly Koubian, no way, most of the money is consumed at the border, in addition, the world has been in chaos for so long, the people have withered badly, and the taxes have not been able to go up, it's not that those officials are useless, it's our Datang, it's such a foundation." Li Shimin looked at Li Lizhi and explained with a wry smile.

"Well, father, you send an IOU to Wei Hao, let Wei Hao take out the money, if there is no money here, I will transfer some from Wei Hao, Wei Hao's family still has a lot of money, it is estimated that there are three or five thousand yuan, when the time comes, if the queen mother needs money urgently, if the money can't keep up, I will transfer it from Wei Hao." Li Lizhi looked at Li Shimin and said, now that there is a shortage of money, there is no way to do it.

"Okay, tomorrow my father will let the servant shoot over to talk to him." Li Shimin nodded and said, now it can only be like this.

Early the next morning, Li Shimin summoned Fang Xuanling into the palace and explained those things, and at the same time specially explained that he wanted to see Wei Hao alone and talk about this matter alone, but he was not allowed to talk about this matter in the cell.

Fang Xuanling opened the IOU and was also surprised when he saw that Li Shimin said that he wanted to borrow 70,000 yuan from Wei Hao.

This inconspicuous Wei Hanzi actually has so much money, so to speak, this ceramic workshop is really profitable, no wonder, Wei Hao fought, Li Shimin didn't deal with him much, but was directly locked up in the prison of the Criminal Department, and it is estimated that he will be released soon.

"A capable young man, you should talk to him well!" Fang Xuanling said appreciatively.

Such talents, but not many, especially those who are good at management, the Ministry of the Tang Dynasty has been in deficit over the years, if Wei Hao helps, maybe it will be better, and the life of these officials will be better.

And at this moment, on Wei Hao's side, after Wei Hao and the others got up, they continued to play cards. After fighting for a while, a jailer came in and shouted at Wei Hao, "Wei Hao, someone wants to see you!" ”

"See me? Who is it? Wei Hao heard this, turned his head to look at the jailer and asked.

"You'll find out when you go." The jailer said to Wei Hao with a smile.

"You come in, take a few for you first, I'll come when I go!" Wei Hao beckoned the jailer to come in and play cards, and went to meet the people outside, and soon, Wei Hao arrived in a room, and after entering, Wei Hao found that he was familiar and had seen it!

"Have you seen this uncle, are you?" Wei Hao arched his hand to Fang Xuanling and asked.

"Come, old man Fang Xuanling, this is the meal you bought from your Juxian Building, the old man said that he wanted to invite you to dinner, so they brought it out for me, there is wine here!" Fang Xuanling greeted Wei Hao with a smile and said.

"Oh, the servant shoots, I've seen the servants shoot!" As soon as Wei Hao heard that it was Fang Xuanling, he immediately arched his hand and said.

"Well, it's okay to call uncle, come and sit down!" Fang Xuanling said to Wei Hao very enthusiastically.

"Then you're welcome." When Wei Hao heard him greet him like this, he also sat down.

"This is a matter assigned by His Majesty, an IOU, a total of 70,000 yuan!" Fang Xuanling smiled and took out the IOU and handed it to Wei Hao, Li Shimin said that this matter has been said, and it will be done for Wei Hao.

"Oh, hey, the servant shoots, you say, I'm so good at making money, why doesn't Your Majesty see me if you are still short of money? I'm such a talent, Your Majesty can't see me, hey, really! Wei Hao put away the IOU and said to Fang Xuanling with a sigh.

"Haha!" Fang Xuanling smiled and touched his beard, Li Shimin had told him about meeting Wei Hao before, and he also explained to him, and he couldn't reveal his identity.

"Hey, the servant shot, you say, is your majesty's brain that? What do you think, is it hard to meet me? Am I that scary? Wei Hao still chased after Fang Xuanling and asked.

When Fang Xuanling heard this, he shook his head with a smile, fortunately, Li Shimin had explained that this Wei Hao in front of him had a problem with his brain, and he didn't open the door when he spoke, so Fang Xuanling heard it, don't be angry.
