"Hey, 800,000 taels...... The emperor is really rich! ”

Jia Qing got into the carriage and said in his mouth. Pei Feng, who was also waiting in the carriage, said with a smile: "Look at what the second master said, the emperor must be rich!" ”

Jia Qing glanced at her and said, "You know a fart." ”

"You!!" Pei Feng was ashamed and angry when she heard this, put down her hand that was about to peel the fruit, and pounced on Jia Qing, but was subdued by two or three strokes.

Clamped Pei Feng, who was flushed, under her ribs, and saw that she didn't dare to "make a mistake" again, so she stopped "punishing", leaned on the soft chair steadily, and pretended to sleep with the shaking body.

Jia Qing went to Xuanzhen Temple today to invite Jia Jing back to his home, and on the way back, he suddenly remembered what Lai Sheng said about Jia Zheng receiving a new errand. With a hint of anxiety about Jia Zheng in his heart, Jia Qing went to the "construction site" that Jia Zheng was responsible for under the guidance of the steward.

Originally, I just wanted to take a casual look, check for Jia Zheng, and at the same time see what the scale of this palace with the first golden branches and jade leaves today would be, but I didn't think about it, I really ran into Jia Zheng.

Jia Zheng was also a little worried about his errand, and when he saw Jia Qing coming, he naturally led him to visit, and also asked Jia Qing for his views and suggestions.

Although Jia Qing knew that the current emperor and the emperor were very fond of Princess Xingyue, and expected that the princess mansion built for her would not be shabby, but he didn't expect it to be so extravagant.

Not to mention anything else, after all, the current princess's mansion is still just a piece of land, and I can't see anything. However, just knowing the budget for this project from Jia Zheng made Jia Qing silent.

800,000 taels of silver!!

What does 800,000 taels of silver represent? Let's put it this way, even in the capital, eight hundred taels of silver is enough to buy a good courtyard, and it is not an exaggeration to barely call it a mansion. 800,000 taels! It's a thousand houses connected together...... Although the account cannot be calculated in this way, the princess's mansion pays more attention to wealth and luxury, but it can also be seen.

Moreover, this money was paid from the royal treasury, so Jia Qing could not feel that the emperor was rich.

But think about it, Da Chu has been peaceful for decades, especially in recent years, there have not been too many natural and man-made disasters, which can be called the peace of the country and the people.

In this way, the imperial court naturally has money......

If the court is rich, will the emperor's internal money be poor?

The answer, of course, is no!

The imperial court is no more than a family. If a family becomes rich, it will most likely accumulate most of its wealth for future generations.

But if you have money in the treasury, it's a big difference!

With money in the treasury, how many of the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty can be unmoved? Then, of course, all kinds of exaggerated budgets and national plans under various names were introduced......

Everyone is here to "do a good" errand, and the emperor can't say anything, but his heart is always unhappy, it doesn't make sense for you rabbit cubs to eat meat and ask Lao Tzu to drink soup, right?

So, with everyone's support, batches of larger amounts of silver were allocated to the royal treasury in various unstoppable names.

In this way, you can rest assured and I am happy, right?

This is the reason why grand events inevitably breed great corruption. Unless, the emperor of the dictatorship can be like Emperor Wen and Emperor Jing in the early years of the Han Dynasty, be diligent and thrifty and restrain hundreds of officials, then the treasury can be full.

However, it is obvious that it is impossible for the current royal family to be diligent and thrifty. Not to mention anything else, the Emperor Taishang Yuyu has been in the sea for decades, making the four seas surrender, and the people of Wufu are abundant, and in his old age, who would dare to let his old man be wronged?

Without further ado, let's just say that even if there is money in today's internal money, it is an exaggeration to be able to set aside a huge sum of 800,000 taels to build a princess mansion for Princess Xingyue at once!

You must know that the current marriage of Princess Xingyue has not been decided, if it weren't for the fact that the Emperor Taishang and the Emperor had now determined that they would recruit a concubine for her in the future, then it would mean that this princess's mansion, which costs a lot of money, is just for Princess Xingyue to play casually for two or three years before she gets married.

Because in two or three years, Princess Xingyue will almost reach the age of marriage.

Even Jia Qing was thinking, I don't know what the Emperor Taishang thinks, the good princess doesn't live in the palace, why do you have to get a princess mansion outside? There is no point in wasting money and labor......

Is it really that there is too much money to spend and there is nowhere to spend it?

Moreover, this newly built princess mansion is not far from the Jia family. To the east of Jia Province, there is only one street across the street......

Of course, because the area where Jiafu is located was originally a gathering place for princes and nobles, it is not surprising that the princess's mansion is located here.

The carriage moved forward slowly, and after entering Ningrong Street, the sound of laughter and excitement became more and more intense.

There was constant laughter and scolding from the teahouses and wine shops on both sides, street vendors were also shouting hard, and some children were holding hands and singing some simple and childlike songs.

At the end is a bustling scene.

"It's strange and it's really rare, who is rich and unequal......"

In front of a teahouse, four or five children happily sang songs that they heard from nowhere, and they worked very hard, and their little faces were red and they didn't stop, only to hear them sing:

It's weird, it's weird

Whoever is rich and noble is unmatched

The founding of the country is ranked 12 most expensive

And now it is a thing of the past

It is an ordinary thing to take advantage of the people

It's not surprising that people die and their homes are broken

......

Out of the golden nest came a golden phoenix

No man is content

There is something strange about Mo Dao

The children of women are highly capable

......

The children sang happily and had fun, not noticing that a luxurious carriage stopped in front of them, and was still singing:

White pimples

Jaundice

You lend me and I lend him

He relieved his worries

I got rich

Sit at home and have fun

......

I don't know when the commotion in the teahouse has quieted down, and only the sound of selling in the distance can still be heard clearly.

The changed environment finally caught the attention of the children, and they all looked out into the street.

It's a beautiful car, and there is a handsome big brother on it who is lifting the curtain and looking at them.

The children of the common family have a natural fear of such things, and they can't help but gather together and look at the group of people outside vigilantly.

The person in the luxury car was naturally Jia Qing, and he was attracted by the content of the nursery rhyme. When the children had finished singing, they smiled at them what they thought was their most amiable, and said, "Children, can you tell my brother who taught you this ballad?" ”

He smiled brightly and sincerely. However, he was now in the midst of a group of fierce and vicious guards of Ning Guofu, and those children did not dare to move even if they felt his kindness. One of the timid children cried out and cried out, "Daddy--! ”

A middle-aged man, thin and dark-skinned, hurriedly ran out of the wine shop. He picked up the crying child, looked at Jia Qing with a worried face, and said hesitantly: "This son, these are still children......

Jia Qing touched his nose helplessly, a little depressed. The eyes of the surrounding crowd gradually gathered on them, and many people still had ridicule in their eyes......

Jia Qing had no doubt that as long as he stayed here for a little longer, the news of his dignified Jia family Wen Lin Lang, who was given the title of Emperor of the Imperial Dynasty, and the bullying of a group of five or six-year-old children on the street by the first rank lord of the Guo Dynasty would soon spread throughout Shenjing West City......

Looking at the little slug who was still crying in his father's arms, Jia Qing had serious doubts about his affinity!

Young Master Ben is so unpopular that he can scare children into crying with a casual word.

"This, don't mind this uncle, this son has no malicious ......"

"Wow Wow Wow ......"

The incessant cries of the little slugs made Jia Qing's explanation a little pale, and in desperation, Jia Qing happened to see a sugar gourd seller not far away, so he said to Wang Shun: "You go and buy a string of sugar gourds for each of them......"

Wang Shun immediately acted when he heard this, and heard Jia Qing add later: "Remember, laugh!" If you make me cry again, you give me care! ”

"Yes~"

Wang Shun knew that his master had no choice, and he had to please this group of little boys. Suppressing his smile, Wang Shun quickly bought the sugar gourd, and then distributed the sugar gourd to a few children with his biggest smile.

Maybe Wang Shun's affinity is really better than Jia Qing, or maybe the sugar gourd is very effective. Anyway, several children took the sugar gourd either generously or cringe, and even the little slug stopped crying and opened his mouth to lick the sugar gourd.

In the sedan chair, Jia Qing breathed a sigh of relief. Glaring at Pei Feng, who was already laughing next to him, he turned to those children and asked, "That, can you tell the big brother who taught you Fang Cai's ballad now?" ”

Jia Qing found that he was really not used to communicating with these little kids.

Fortunately, Jia Qing's luck came, and a child said very face-savingly: "It was a bearded grandfather who taught us, and others are fine, just like this brother, and they bought us sugar gourds......

On the side, Wang Shun smiled unequivocally and took over this innocent good guy card.

"An old man with a beard?" Jia Qing muttered.

The little friend who spoke visually was the most generous of these children, and he could only get such a little news from them, so Jia Qing was no longer obsessed, and said to Wang Shun, "Give ten copper plates each", put down the curtain, and ordered to go home.

Poor Wang Shun had so many copper coins on him, so he had to buy a few more strings of sugar gourds, and gathered the copper plates to give to those children one by one.
