18. The domestic library is distinct
Once it is reasonable, then Lu Zhen's rebuke will be weakened a lot.
The emperor was very interested, so he asked Gao Yue what to do, and Gao Yue directly suggested: "The towns in the southeast and Jianghuai have always been rich, and the top priority is to conserve manpower in order to achieve the effect of long-term levy, so Your Majesty simply stopped the Xuansuo and Jinfeng in Huainan, Xu Haosi, Xuanshe, Eastern Zhejiang, Western Zhejiang, and Jiangnan West Dao, and let the people rest." The towns of Jiannan, Xingyuan, Shannan Dongdao, Jingnan, Eyue, Chenxu, Jinshang, Shaanxi, etc., according to the number of soldiers, are called 'money to help the army', if the town does not send troops, it is not asked, if the town does not send troops, then ask for it for the use of the town of the army, in addition to this, the festival degree can not create another name, and then carry out a cross-march, the army money is stored in His Majesty's inner treasury, for the purpose of motivating and rewarding the army; , the side will be eroded by the traitor; In the end, His Majesty also announced a fixed amount of 'money to help the army' in Heshuo, Ziqing, Biansong and other towns, but it was only asked for every year, and it was also stored in the inner treasury to fund the military - simply to help the army, not into the two warehouses of Daying Qionglin, but sealed in the bow and arrow warehouse and the flying dragon stable. ”
The Emperor nodded.
Gao Yue also said: "As for the two warehouses of Daying and Qionglin, they were not used to store gold and jade money and silk at the earliest, Daying was integrated with the dyeing workshop, and the plain cloth sent by the treasury was often printed and dyed purple and crimson by Daying, and then given to officials, foreign guests or princes and grandchildren; And there is also a workshop in Qionglin Library, that is, to process gold, silver and jade for the inner court to wear and enjoy. Previously, the ministers received the edict of His Majesty, and the Zhangjie Yue levied the party's items, and successively sent to His Majesty no less than seventeen or eight thousand Qiang slaves, His Majesty could let the Da Ying Treasury envoy concurrently dye the envoy, let the Qionglin Treasury envoy and treasure envoy, the inner garden envoy and the planting envoy, and then use the wives and daughters of the court prisoners to operate weaving and dyeing, treasures, rice farming, winemaking, orchards, medicinal materials, etc. ”
Your Majesty has to make good use of the value of this Qiang slave's labor.
The emperor was a little stunned, it stands to reason that in his cognition, whether it is the Shaofu or the various divisions in the inner palace, the things created should be used by the emperor, but he has never had the idea of going out to sell them.
Now what does Gao Yue mean to turn the palace into a large for-profit workshop?
Obviously, Gao Yue meant this, and he said below that just the dyeing workshops, treasures, and gardens in the palace were enough, and five or six thousand Qiang slaves were enough, and the other Qiang slaves were simply sent to the envoys of the inner village, and they were allocated to the imperial villages, official villages, and prison yards in various places, so that His Majesty could manage the various industries of the royal family - among them, Gao Yue strongly recommended that the newly recovered Helong, such as Huizhou, Ganzhou, Suzhou, plus the horse squares in Jingyuan, Fengxiang, Suining, Lingwu and other places, were originally sparsely populated, rich in water and grass, and the climate was cold, which was particularly suitable for animal husbandry- His Majesty may set up additional imperial and official estates in these places, especially for raising cattle, horses, and sheep, which is the most suitable and profitable.
Ask some Fang towns for the money to help the army, and store it in the bow and arrow warehouse and the flying dragon stable;
Daying Qionglin, the cloth and silk allocated by the treasury were dyed, and the gold and silver treasures from various places were processed and then sold to the market;
In addition, the envoys of the inner village will also engage in animal husbandry in various official villages.
There are too many things to worry about the emperor right away.
In the end, Gao Yue also said that His Majesty should also send more nobles to the big temples in various places to serve as temple envoys (just like what was done in Famen Temple), in addition to asking the temple to accept and buy books, and the temple to divide the money, but also to order the temple to build a longevity treasury, endless hiding, to gather the people's money, and then let the nobles find a "money catcher", and then disperse the money to the people to lend interest, so as to enrich His Majesty's inner treasury.
In fact, Gao Yue's suggestion made the emperor quite happy.
Because discussing things with Gao Yue is completely different from He Lu Zhen and others: Gao Yue is the kind of person who doesn't want to be honest and scruples in order to "get things done".
The simplest thing is that Gao Yue and others are prime ministers, and they eat dine-in every day, relying on the cooks and money catchers hired by Zhongshumen Province to use the food capital to go out and lend money to provide financial support. However, the vast majority of prime ministers are ashamed to talk about this matter, as if they have an affair with this kind of usury, which is completely insulting to the lintel.
But Gao Yue is different, he actually hooked up with the royal family and the temple to catch money together.
It's true that money is the king of thieves, but you can't do without this king of thieves!
Taken together, the reasonable income of the Inner Treasury is no less than two million yuan.
So do you want to ask the treasury for royal money, yes, of course.
Gao Yue, as the prime minister of Zhongshu Shilang Pingzhangshi, assured the emperor that the national treasury would be allocated 600,000 horses of silk cloth to the emperor every year in the two taxes, and the taxes on tea and wine obtained by the Salt and Iron Division of the household department would add up to 6,700,000 yuan, which would also be the envy of His Majesty.
As for the income from the salt ponds in the southeast, Hedong Hezhong and Shuofang, it is still the old rule, and it is at the disposal of the branch and belongs to the national treasury.
The salt of Jiannan, Bakui, Xingyuan, etc., is self-sufficient in the town.
In terms of duties, the Treasury Branch is responsible for the army's military rations and clothing, the salaries of hundreds of officials of the imperial court, and other national construction expenditures; In addition to dealing with the imperial court, the emperor's inner treasury was also responsible for the army's reward money, as well as the cashing of rewards after the war. In this way, the annual income of the three divisions of the state treasury is about 7 million yuan, and the income of the emperor's inner treasury is 300 to 4 million yuan, which is officially divided.
After the discussion between the monarch and the ministers, the emperor let out a long breath, and finally he was able to make a big difference.
If this is the case, I will not have to hide it when I operate the inner treasury in the future, and the name will not be right.
Give me time, I will make the various industries of the North Division prosperous, so that the inner treasury will be surplus every year.
I want to improve the weaving and dyeing technology, I want to care about the whereabouts of the horses, mules and donkeys sold in the cattle and sheep in the Guanzhuang and the horse workshop, and I want to care about the prices in various places to seize opportunities.
From tomorrow, I want to be a happy person, catch money, lend money, face the copper smelly sea, and spring flowers bloom.
The next day, the emperor's writing went to the political affairs hall, first of all, Gao Yue, the Chinese scholar, sat in the Jinluan Palace, sentenced the academy, internal and external privy affairs, and acted as a military opportunity for the Zhaoyi army; Secondly, Lu Zhen, Jia Tan, and Du Huangshang divided the six departments of Shangshu Province, and the emperor and Gao Yue called them "the power belongs to the three princes and nine kings", in short, the name gave enough face; Finally, there is a long article about the division of the treasury and the inner treasury.
Lu Zhen is most concerned about the last matter.
But soon there were results.
In the west hall of the Jinluan Palace, Gao Yue called Pei Yanling to the judgment branch alone, and sternly told him that from the date of His Majesty's decree, all the other treasury you have set up in the treasury will be abolished, and no more will be allowed in the future!
Pei Yanling did not have the expected indignation and anger, he was full of relief, wiped the sweat from his forehead, although he said guilty and guilty to Gao Yue, but he was very happy in his heart: the source of the treasury and the inner treasury were clearly distinguished, and finally there was no need to worry about it, and he would take the blame for the emperor to get money from the treasury.
