Chapter 23 Financial Power? Anyone else

"Zhang Changshi! What's going on! ”

Liu Hong, the Son of Heaven, glared at Zhang Rang fiercely. "Zhang Wen is the big Sinong you recommended? That's how you manage the treasury? I don't have any money to repair the garden? Too learned, border defense? Don't have any money either? What about the money? Where did it go? Did he fill his pockets? Or do you honor your servant? ”

No wonder Liu Hong, the Son of Heaven, is angry... In his subconscious, in the whole world, he is the only one who can fill his own pockets and embezzle the treasury privately? What kind of thing is he? How dare you do that?

As soon as the words fell...

Bang bang... Two rings, Zhang Rang's head hit the ground again, and the successive kowtows, in addition to the "skull pain", made him feel dizzy... Even so, he tried to calm himself.

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty... We... We don't know! "Zhang Rang regretted it very much, and said that Xiucai met Bing, and he couldn't explain it reasonably... Can you meow, when a soldier meets an "account book"? Will he be able to sort it out?

Zhang Rang felt that his brain... was really kicked by a donkey, recommend Zhang Wen... It's a mistake.

Zhang Wen... Also... It's also a sinkhole.

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty is angry. The minister went to the treasury, and the minister himself went to urge... Go and urge that Zhang Wen..."Zhang Rang explained vigorously. "The money for border defense must be made up, and the funds for Taixue must also be made up... And also... and His Majesty's money for repairing the garden, which can be scraped together at a moment's notice. ”

Under the anger of the Son of Heaven, Zhang Rang could only say this...

Huangpu Song and Cai Yong looked at each other... After exchanging glances, I couldn't help muttering in my heart: "It seems that what the Great Changqiu Cao Festival said is right... There's never been a better time to beg for money! ”

Thinking of this, Cai Yong and Huangpu Song spoke again and again, trying to add another fire:

"Your Majesty... As soon as the school starts, the teaching funds must be gathered..."

"Your Majesty... Now the border guards and the Xianbei Huqi are fighting fiercely, and there is no money? I'm afraid I'm going to lose the city..."

Not...

Liu Hong's head was about to explode. "Zhang Changshi? Do you hear that? Taixue funds, border guard salaries... And most importantly, the money for the cultivation of the East and West Ryugue Garden? Now, you're going to ask for it..."

"Whew... Zhang Rang stood up tremblingly, and retreated in small steps... As he retreated, he said, "Minister... The minister must beg for it... Money... money..."

From time to time, his eyes glanced at the Son of Heaven with their spare eyes, and saw that the Son of Heaven had a tense face... I know that the stakes are very important, and I wonder in my heart, otherwise... I lent the money I had collected over the years to the treasury first... After this level, go back and settle accounts for this Wen again.

Before he could get far away, his ass seemed to hit a rock.

"Oops..."

Zhang Rang turned the whole person forward... There was a small yellow door on the side, and he hurriedly helped Zhang Rang... He patted the dust off his body, and his eyes lifted... He wanted to see what kind of crumb? Dare to hit him?

It's good not to look at it... At first glance, it's not the new Dasi Nong Zhang Wen? Who else could there be?

"You... What are you doing here? Zhang Rang muttered quietly...

"Come and resign!" Zhang Wen raised his eyebrows and answered three words coldly.

"Resigned? What is the resignation? Do you know that our family is about to go bankrupt in order to keep you? Zhang Rang's tone was cold... There is a smell of hatred of iron and steel. "You... Do you still have the face to resign? Words... Quitting you big-headed ghost, quitting your sister... Hurriedly... Hurry up and get me back! ”

"Go back? Ha ha? "How do you know? Zhang Wen ignored Zhang Rang at all and laughed. "Da Si Nong, this official? Do you want to do it? I'm here! I can't do it! "Let's go... With a wave of his long sleeves, he walked straight towards Liu Hong, the son of heaven...

"Oops..."Zhang Rang flicked his long sleeves and hurriedly chased after him.

……

Stomp Tread...

Solid and heavy footsteps are getting closer...

There is a little eunuch one step ahead... Rush to the Son of Heaven.

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty... Zhang Wen of Dasi Nong broke in and said... said that it was a matter related to His Majesty's cultivation of the garden, and stopped... I can't stop it! ”

"Dasi Nong Zhang Wen?" Hearing this name, Liu Hong, the son of heaven, narrowed his eyes. "Just looking for him! He came uninvited! ”

As he spoke, Zhang Wen had already walked in front of the Son of Heaven.

"Poof"... Zhang Wen fell to his knees. "Your Majesty...", he found that there was not only Liu Hong, the son of heaven, but also Cai Yong, the chief of Taixue, and Huangpu Song, the Hun Zhonglang general.

Call... With a long exhalation, I thought about it with my toes and knew that they had come to complain to the Son of Heaven... Sue him, the great Si Nong who is in charge of the empire's wealth!

Thinking of this, Zhang Wen smiled bitterly, but he was much calmer.

"Zhang Aiqing won't be here to cry poor, right?" Liu Hong glared at him coldly.

"Your Majesty, the minister will not cry poor..."Zhang Wen's somewhat dry voice, the hoarse voice came out of it. The minister is here to resign... This great Sinopun, the minister can't do it..."

Shout...

This sudden resignation caught Liu Hong, the son of heaven, a little off guard, not only did he catch him off guard, but even Cai Yong and Huangpu Song were a little caught off guard... This? What do you mean? Can't get the money? Just resign... You don't have anything like that, do you?

Then again? You resigned cleanly, where is the funding for Taixue? Who pays for the food and salary of the border guards? And His Majesty's Garden? Isn't it completely stranded?

"Resigned? Why did you resign? Liu Hong pointed to Zhang Wen's head and asked angrily. Isn't it just money? The big man of Nuoda? Don't even have money in the treasury to repair the garden? ”

The Great Han Empire? Wood is rich? Isn't that hilarious? Although natural and man-made disasters have continued over the years, taxes can be collected every year...

These taxes? It's not used in border defense, it's not used in education, where is it? Where's the account?

"Your Majesty? In the treasury ... True... There is really no money! Zhang Wen said helplessly..."On the account, there is some treasury money listed... But... Do you really want to take it out? I'm afraid that it will not be enough to reach one percent of the account! ”

"What?" Liu Hong, the Son of Heaven, was stunned..."What about the money?" Where is the money in the treasury? "It's about money... This son of heaven is very sensitive... The treasury has no money? Where will he go to appropriate it in the future? His private money? How to continue the replenishment?

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty...", but saw Zhang Rang hurriedly running back. "Minister... The minister can testify that when Lord Zhang Wen took over the position of Dasi Nong, the treasury was destitute... This... It's all... It's all a confused account made by Cao Song, the former big farmer... Furthermore... In addition, the Great Long Autumn..."

simply got to this point, Zhang Rang planned to tell Cao Song and Cao Jie's dealings... Even though the evidence is not complete, it is better than... Let him and Zhang Wen carry this black cauldron!

Who knows... He was only halfway through his words.

"Your Majesty..."A loud and sharp voice sounded, but it was not Da Changqiu, Shang Shuling Cao Jie, who else was coming.

"Cao Hou is here?" Seeing Cao Jie, Liu Hong beckoned, looking quite pleased...

It's no wonder that in the commercial street of Xiyuan, Cao Jie helped the Son of Heaven collect rent... Liu Hong was quite pleased with this, and naturally favored Cao Jie even more. "Cao Hou is here? Is it also for the treasury silver? ”

Yes, of course...

All this is the game he laid out, and the words of the little guy Cao Shuo have gradually become a chess game full of nets, including the Son of Heaven, everyone is a chess piece between him and Xiao Cao Shuo.

Cao Jie, who is now one of the chess players... appeared.

"Your Majesty... The minister is trying to talk about the treasury! But I heard Zhang Changshi's nonsense! ”

Cao Jie saluted Liu Hong, the son of heaven, and continued: "Speaking of which, Zhang Wen, the great Si Nong recommended by Zhang Changshi, was born in the army, and it was first-class to lead troops to fight, but he still owes a little heat to do this civilian job. ”

"The minister just went to the treasury to take inventory, although there is not much money? But... There are a lot of tributes and utensils, and each utensil has a corresponding price, which can be replaced in the market... If you want to replace it all, let alone His Majesty's garden, even the military salary and Taixue funds will not be in arrears..."

Speaking of this, Cao Jie paused, and then a word came out. "As for the price of each item? Don't say that Lord Zhang Wen doesn't know, even the lower officials don't know... If you take the liberty of replacing it, I am afraid that you will lose a lot of treasury silver! ”

"And who knows?" Liu Hong, the Son of Heaven, asked rhetorically.

"Former Grand Si Nong Cao Song."

Cao Jie's tone was firm. "Speaking of which, this treasury is far from being as simple as it seems... The taxes paid by the states and counties are not necessarily all money and grain, but can also be deducted with utensils and currency... What's more, many beautiful palaces and rare birds and beasts are also deducted... These have already been presented to His Majesty. ”

“… So, Zhang Changshou said that the account is a confused account... That's not false, Zhang Wen Dasi Nong is confused in managing the treasury, but if the former Dasi Nong Cao Song is in charge of the treasury... The accounts are very clear and thorough... I remember, a few years ago... Repair gardens, allocate military salaries, and distribute funds for Taixue... Never been in arrears, right? Ultimately? Is this an account? Or can't people? ”

Call... This!

Zhang Rang's eyes staring at Cao Jie were about to burst out... But in such anger... He had a feeling that he was about to cry.

Cao Jie: This... This is just serious nonsense...

In the final analysis, isn't it okay to slander Zhang Wen who recommended him? This Nima... Speak without swearing... But every word pierces the heart! Hurt... What a meow pain!

Not... It seems that because of Cao Jie's words, Liu Hong, the son of heaven, fell into deep thought...

Back a few years ago, when Cao Song was the Great Honglu, he was responsible for keeping the private money of Liu Hong, the son of heaven... There has never been a mistake;

Then when he served as the Great Si Nong, he was in charge of the financial power of the empire, not to mention anything else... Military spending, funds, and the cost of leisure and entertainment of the Son of Heaven are not too much of a problem...

How did you give birth, this Wen Yi took over? The Empire's treasury is full of holes? Even with it, the private money of his son Liu Hong has become precarious...

No way! We have to get out of this situation quickly.

Otherwise, more and more courtiers will be worried about his private money as the son of heaven... This money, but the money earned from selling officials, belongs to the Son of Heaven personally, who wants to move? No way...

I'm not afraid of thieves stealing, ah no, I'm not afraid of this group of officials stealing, I'm afraid that this group of officials will worry...

Thinking of this, Liu Hong, the Son of Heaven, nodded heavily.

"Zhang Wen? You still have something to say. ”

"The minister is here... Come and resign! "Zhang Wen asked for help again... Without diamonds, you can't do this porcelain work... Dasi Nong's official position is fattened again? That's someone else's... In his eyes, this is a pit, a huge deep pit!

"Okay..."Liu Hong nodded. Spread my will, remove Zhang Wen from the position of Dasi Nong, and order Cao Song to be appointed as Dasi Nong, and take office immediately, within a month, I will see the construction of Dongxi Gui Yuan. ”

"Huh..."Cao Jie, Cai Yong, and Huangpu Song agreed.

After all, the official position of this great Si Nong... Cao Song? Or is it what everyone wants...

The so-called weight of two benefits is the heavier, and the lesser of two evils...

Others are in charge of the financial power of the empire, and their officials, soldiers, and Hongru are hungry, if Cao Song is in charge... I can still eat after all!

It's good to be able to eat these days!
