A month later, Donghua Gate.

"Uncle!"

Yang Xin saluted the nine thousand years old who greeted him personally.

And behind him is a lot of carriages that can't be seen at a glance, and even stretches to the outside of Dong'an Gate, all the carriages are all covered, and the Jinyi guards on both sides are on guard, even the driving ones are Jinyi guards, and this is how these carriages go all the way from Tongzhou to here.

Nine thousand years old did not answer him.

Instead, he walked straight behind him and lifted the tarpaulin from a carriage.

Inside, a dazzling silver color reflecting the sunlight.

"Silver, Uncle looks at this thing more than anything else now.

Uncle here is a place where countless hands asking for silver are stretched out as soon as they open their eyes, and they want silver on the battlefield in Liaodong, the Imperial Palace wants silver, the civil and military officials want silver, and the hungry people in the local disaster want silver.

Everyone reached out to me like hungry ghosts.

But our Ming Dynasty doesn't pay taxes, that one doesn't pay taxes, this one has merit and that royal relatives, this one says he doesn't make money, and that one says he is so poor that he can't open the pot, and then you go for a trip and open their cellars, but they are richer than the emperor. are all a group of rebellious ministers and thieves, saying that our two masters are traitors, uncle, I think they are more like traitors, a Li Sancai copied out millions, and a Gao Panlong copied out millions, and these people shouted that they were as honest as water.

Is this Tamar as incorruptible as water?

Smugglers and loan sharks have the face to say that they are as incorruptible as water? ”

Nine thousand years old said hatefully.

"Uncle, who made you angry?"

Yang Xin asked.

"There is no shortage of days to make the uncle angry, don't worry about them, the uncle is in his fifties, and he has been in the palace for most of his life, so he will not be angry with them, you can do what you want outside, as long as we can get the silver for Your Majesty, no matter how much those mad dogs bite outside, it will be in vain."

Nine thousand years old said.

Obviously, he has also been tossed a lot during this time.

Then he waved his hand and motioned for the carriages to continue moving forward into the Donghua Gate.

The silver is not sent to the inner treasury, which is indeed the inner treasury, and it is indeed too supervised, but in fact it belongs to the six ministries, to be precise, the ministers and civil officials are jointly managed, but it is in the imperial city, so the power of this distribution must belong to the eunuchs, but the use is used by the six ministries. This is recorded very clearly in the books that have been handed down to modern times in the Ming Dynasty, such as the Ministry of Industry Factory Warehouse Instructions, and most of the materials in the Ministry of Industry Factory Warehouse Instructions are taken from these ten warehouses.

including a reward for boar skins.

Back then, it cost more than 300 taels of clothes just to reward the wild boar skin and several chiefs under him.

It was not the Emperor's little treasury.

So Tianqi and Jiu Qiansui set up a real small treasury separately in the palace, which has no name to the outside world, but the silver that Yang Xin fished for them was there, in fact, it was in Renshou Palace, and at this time, the Empress Zheng and Empress Li all rushed there. The latter is Li Xuanzhi, Tianqi fulfilled his promise to his father last year, and officially named Li Xuanzhi as the imperial concubine for his father, and now he is promoted to imperial concubine, in the final analysis, he has actually raised him for almost two years.

And he still raises Chongzhen to this day.

They're deserted enough.

The emperor's private coffers were in this group of widows.

After adding this one, more than four million taels have been hoarded, and these silver have not been touched so far, but the silver in the inner carrier warehouse is about to run out, and the apocalypse is spending the silver there, even including the messy materials hoarded in each treasury, while constantly enriching his small treasury.

It's the mess he made himself, and this one is directly spent on the small treasury.

At present, the order of spending money in the Ming Dynasty is to spend the Taicang Treasury first, and in fact, there has never been saved there.

Chongzhen had 80,000 taels in it before he hung up.

Then within the ten libraries.

This one is still in stock.

As long as the inventory in it does not exceed its means, the finances of the Ming Dynasty can remain normal.

Once the inner ten treasury is beyond its means, to the point where it is necessary to use the emperor's small treasury, the Ming Dynasty's finances are actually on the verge of collapse, so Tianqi and Jiu Qiansui let Yang Xin go and let him use all kinds of crazy means to accumulate wealth to enrich this small treasury. Because this is the last guarantee, the more this small treasury is saved, once it faces financial collapse, the longer it will take for the emperor to adjust, as long as he can continue to enrich this small treasury with windfalls, Apocalypse doesn't care what Yang Xin is doing outside!

He still has his grandfather's legacy at this point.

His grandfather let those tax supervisors and mine supervisors out, and the purpose was the same as when he let Yang Xin out.

It's just that the combat effectiveness of those mine supervisors and tax supervisors cannot be compared with Yang Xin, and in the end, his grandfather didn't dare to let go of his hands, so he could only slowly loot little by little under the bottom line of the civil officials and gentry, to be precise, he exchanged the lives of those mine supervisors and tax supervisors, and the death rate of the tax supervisors and mine supervisors in the Wanli Dynasty was comparable to the battlefield. If his grandfather had a thug like Yang Xin, he would not be more restrained than the Apocalypse, in fact, in the late Wanli period, Yang Xin was promoted so much, and the purpose was not necessarily without this consideration, this kind of old fox would not attach importance to a person for no reason.

"Uncle, there is also a million newly opened money in the Fang family, this is the silver ticket issued there, you can withdraw the silver when you take the ticket, the nephew has nothing to do with our own people inside and outside the palace, it is still not very clear, you look at the points, you don't need to leave it for your nephew, your nephew's own set aside." However, the nephew has an additional request, I think in the future, when they deposit money, they will try to take care of this money bank, the Fang family has just set foot in this business, and the nephew has to pull some guests. ”

Yang Xin handed a small box to Nine Thousand Years Old and said.

"You kid is sensible, so I'll leave this to the uncle."

Nine thousand years old said with a smile.

They don't have to be afraid of the apocalypse knowing about this kind of thing.

Wanli has made it clear that the proportion with those tax supervisors is originally four or six points, and Wanli is four, and the tax supervisors are six, but nominally the six tax supervisors are used by each supervisor for their own expenses.

The emperor is not short of hungry soldiers.

If you want to let your subordinates do their best, especially the errand with a very high mortality rate of the tax supervisor, it is impossible not to give enough benefits to others, although Yang Xin was not burned to death like those tax supervisors, thrown into the Yangtze River and beaten to death by a stick, but he also wandered around the ghost gate more than once. People go out to get money for the emperor, and make themselves the number one traitor in the history of the Ming Dynasty, it can almost be said that the wind stinks for ten miles, and the emperor has to give him enough rewards, anyway, this reward is not the emperor.

Nine thousand years old handed the small box to the little eunuch who followed him.

The two of them continued to talk as they spoke, and soon turned north with the carriage, and walked through the labyrinthine palace, until they finally reached the Renshou Palace, where they stopped at a small vault, which was actually an outbuilding, and supervised the brocade guards to load the silver, which actually weighed nearly a hundred tons, into the treasury. Then those brocade guards withdrew from the palace with the carriage the same way, and Yang Xin and Jiu Qiansui turned to the Qianqing Palace, but instead of going through the side gates, they turned directly to the Qianqing Gate in the front......

"Check it out!"

Jiu Qiansui stood in front of Jingyun Gate and pointed to the Qianqing Gate diagonally opposite.

At this time, in this empty square nearly 100 meters away, hundreds of civil officials were kneeling there, and the first few were still crying, as if they were crying for the apocalypse, and the first one in the front was holding the fold with both hands, and he didn't know how long he had been in this position.

"They do this every day?"

Yang Xin was stunned.

"Of course it won't be like this every day, but there are always a few days a month, and the number of people is not so much, today I learned that you came back on purpose, headed by that Wei Dazhong, the engineering department, Gao Panlong's disciple, Qian Shisheng's fellow countryman, and what he held in his hand was to give them grievances. During these days, these people took turns to give them a grievance every day, and by the way, they impeached you, saying that you are the first traitor in ancient and modern times, and it is not enough to thank the world if you don't put you to death, but they are all under the pressure of the celebrant supervisor.

Your Majesty doesn't want to see it, and I don't bother to give it to the cabinet, uncle.

When they saw that the performance was useless, they ran to block the door.

Don't worry about them, you can't quarrel with Your Majesty, Your Majesty is now behind Kunning Palace every day.

The cement you made has been burned, but the Ministry of Industry has not been able to make the kind of steel bar you said, and the iron made by Zunhua Iron Works cannot reach the tensile strength you said, and it is not possible to do several batches of tests.

But Sugang can.

But Sugang is too expensive and has to make ordnance.

This thing is said to not produce much every year, and as you said before, this good business still has to take care of Shuntianfu and Beizhili first, and use Sugang to give all the money to the southerners

I have already sent an order to these iron smelters around Shuntianfu, who can make steel bars for Your Majesty that can reach the tensile strength you mentioned, we will buy them at the price of Sugang, and reward them with brocade clothes, it is estimated that someone will be able to make it, Sugang can reach it, why can't we do it? But Your Majesty has recently found another use for your cement, which can be used for statues, and when it is dry, it will be the same as the real thing, much stronger than the mud tires in the temple.

His Majesty has made a bunch of them behind Kunning Palace, and it is becoming more and more vivid, and there are still statues that will crack when they first started to do it, but now there is no cracking.

Your Majesty still wants to be a ten-zhang long dragon, and then stand on the Chengtian Gate! ”

Nine thousand years old said with a smile.

"Huh?"

Yang Xin was stunned.

He really didn't expect cement to inspire the artistic inspiration of the apocalypse.

Daming Palace and those cottage attractions like a bunch of cement statues, this is also too ruined three views, but can do pouring cement without cracking, this technology is already very superb, but also involves the template, the skeleton and other problems, there is this technology back with thickened wrought iron bars, basically can pour the load-bearing pillar of the Imperial Palace.

The two of them walked forward as they spoke.

At this time, those outside the Qianqing Gate who had already seen them, and who were originally a little sluggish because of the heat, instantly became energetic, and the crying and mourning howls suddenly rose up, and the fold in Wei Dazhong's hand at the front was raised above his head......

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the ministers have been wronged, Your Majesty, the ministers and others implore Your Majesty to summon you and explain your grievances to Your Majesty in person!"

He wailed.
