Ying Chang also knew what the ministers thought, so he didn't say much, and directly moved his gaze to Zhang Feizi, his face was expressionless, and he ordered without anger and self-authority: "This matter is handed over to Zhang Aiqing to do, if it is done well, I will be rewarded, and if it is not done well, it doesn't matter, I don't force it, I just hope that Zhang Aiqing can understand a sentence, things are done by people, and people will win the day!" ”

Zhang Feizi saw that Yingchang handed over this matter to himself, and hurriedly bent down helplessly and responded: "The minister obeys the order!" ”

Leave it to yourself to do it, anyway, it's okay if you can't do it, and there will be no minister to find fault with this matter, after all, this is something that can't be done at all, but although it can't be done, he has to do it after the next dynasty, as for what to do, it's very simple, pull a group of farming masters together, see if there is any possibility and hope for this matter, if not, then directly give Ying Chang a twist and turn, and declare the matter a failure.

Ying Chang flicked his big sleeves, moved his buttocks back, adjusted his most comfortable sitting position and looked at the ministers and said, "Okay, let's put this matter aside for the time being, let's talk to me about the financial situation of the twenty-sixth year of Shengqin and this year's budget!" ”

As soon as the words fell, Zhang Feizi bent down to make a report: "Your Majesty, as of December 30, the 26th year of the Holy Qin, the annual financial revenue of Daqin has once again broken through a record high, and this year our dynasty ushered in a bumper harvest, with an annual grain tax of 110 million stone grain, a salt tax of 50 million taels of silver, a commercial tax of 200 million taels of silver, and a tariff of 150 million taels of silver. ”

"The annual profit of the household department is 200 million taels of silver, according to the above statistics, the total financial revenue of the 26th year of the Holy Qin is 800 million taels of silver, 110 million stone grain, and the existing treasury of Great Qin is 2,121.9 million taels of silver, 255 million stone grain!"

This year's finance is almost double that of last year, especially the commercial tax, which has more than doubled, not because there are more businessmen in Daqin, but because of the 'credit' of the Ordnance Department, which buys a large amount of nitrate from the merchants, and the merchants receive the money from the Ordnance Department, and then pay a huge amount of commercial taxes to the government.

This is relative to the money given by Great Qin to the Ordnance Department, and most of it is returned to the hands of the imperial court, and the left hand is reversed to the right hand.

"So much, how do you spend it?" Ying Chang was suddenly a little distressed.

In the past, when Daqin was poor, he was eager to cut a penny in half and spend it as a penny, but now the treasury is full of silver, and he doesn't know how to spend the money.

If the emperors of the countries knew that Yingchang had this idea, he would definitely vomit blood angrily, I am so worried about money every day, you are actually worried about the money, it is really too deceitful, it is extremely hateful, not to mention the emperors of the countries, the hundred officials in the Qilin Hall are a little unbearable.

Look, is this the word of a man?

"There is a saying in the world of Datong, so that the old have something to rely on, since I Daqin keeps shouting for the world Datong, then take practical action and spread my will, from now on, all counties and localities will establish nursing homes to accommodate the fifty-five-year-old man who has no children and no daughters, and ask a special person to take care of it, and all the expenses will be borne by the imperial court!"

"At the same time, all the people of Daqin, the elderly over sixty years old, regardless of men and women, can go to the government every year to receive a pension of one tael of silver, and from this year onwards, the household department will be in charge of these two matters, what is your objection to this?" Ying Chang looked around at the ministers with sharp eyes, although he was asking the officials if they had any objections, but his tone gave people an unquestionable feeling.

"Ministers are no different!" All the ministers shouted in unison with respectful expressions!

"Good!" Ying Chang nodded with satisfaction.

At this time, Zhang Feizi took out a fold from his arms, bent down and presented it with both hands: "Your Majesty, this is this year's budget fold!" ”

Pei Ji immediately stepped off the high platform, took the budget fold in Zhang Feizi's hand, and then presented it to the royal platform, Yingchang took the budget fold and unfolded it to view, the budget fold is as follows:

【Twenty-seven years of Shengqin's annual budget】

[Ministry of War: The budget of the Ministry of Ordnance is 100 million taels of silver; The army budget was 24,000,000 taels of silver and 8,000,000 stone of grain; The budget of the sailor was 4,800,000 taels of silver and 1,000,000 stone of grain; The budget of the reserve battalion is 70 million taels of silver, 15.5 million stone of grain, and the budget for the daily expenses of the military department is 500,000 taels of silver.

[Ministry of Rites; Daily expenses of 200,000 taels of silver]

[Household Department: The three prefectures outside the Guanxi need 40 million stone grain to maintain the survival of more than 11 million herdsmen, and the annual expenditure of the local government in Daqin, as well as the budget of local officials and imperial court officials, is 20 million taels of silver, and the daily expenditure budget of the household department is 300,000 taels of silver! 】

[Ministry of Industry: Daily expenditure budget of 300,000 taels of silver]

[Ministry of Officials; The daily expenditure budget of the Ministry of Officials is 300,000 taels of silver]

【Middle School; The daily expenditure budget of the schools in various places is 5.5 million taels of silver, and the daily expenditure budget of the secondary schools is 500,000 taels of silver.

[The total annual financial budget of the twenty-seventh year of the Great Qin Dynasty is: 200 million 6.1 million taels of silver, 64.5 million but grain! ] 】

After reading the budget fold, Ying Chang folded the budget fold and lifted it, stretched out his hand and handed it to Pei Ji, Pei Ji caught the budget fold, walked off the high platform again, and handed Zhang Feizi back with both hands, after Zhang Feizi got the budget fold, Ying Chang said loudly:

"I have no problem with this year's budget, but I just said that to establish a pension system and a nursing home system, these two are also a more expensive thing, especially in the early stage, so I will increase the budget of 40 million taels of silver to the household department in the overall budget!"

Combined with the budget that Yingchang is now going to increase, this year's budget will reach 246.1 million taels of silver, and there will be 1,875.8 million taels of silver and 190.5 million stone of grain left in the national treasury!

"The minister immediately increases this year's budget according to His Majesty's request!" Zhang Feizi bowed respectfully and replied.

Ying Chang glanced around at the ministers, and saw that no one continued to stand up to report the matter, so he sent a look to Pei Ji, Pei Ji nodded slightly, and immediately shouted loudly at the hundred officials: "If there is something to play, there is nothing to retreat!" ”

No one stands out of the queue!

Ying Chang Chang slowly got up from the pitch-black carved dragon throne, and walked down the high platform through the stairs behind the high platform without looking back, at the same time, all the ministers knelt on the ground one after another, and each of them bowed respectfully and shouted: "Ministers send your majesty, long live my emperor, long live, long live, long live!" ”

When Yingchang disappeared into the Qilin Palace, the hundred officials got up from the ground one after another, walked with their colleagues, and left the solemn and sacred Qilin Hall one after another.

"Your Majesty really thinks, how can crops be planted for two or three seasons!"

PS: "Order it all!" ”
