293 People are involuntarily in the rivers and lakes

Soon, Chen Er reversed and said to Emperor Chongzhen: "Your Majesty, these armors are average, barely usable!" Compared with what Jianyu wore, it was a lot worse. ”

When Wu Weiting heard this, his expression was relieved, and his face suddenly looked a lot better.

Who knew that Emperor Chongzhen waved his hand and said, "You go to the treasury and verify it again." I don't just need fifty pairs of armor. ”

"Yes!" Chen Er agreed, then turned around and walked through the courtyard, striding into the gate of the warehouse guarded by the Han general.

When Wu Weiting saw it, his face was unnatural again, and he hurriedly went out to play to Emperor Chongzhen: "Your Majesty, the treasury is very large, and the slave maid will go in and point out the location to Chen Baihu." ”

"No need!" Emperor Chongzhen said coldly, "I said that I want fine armor, but what you put on is not as good as what you can use for Jianyu. Could it be said that this barely usable armor is the best armor of my Ming Dynasty? ”

As soon as he heard this, Wu Weiting couldn't stand anymore, and knelt down and played: "Your Majesty Mingjian, these armors are indeed the most sophisticated armor in the treasury. ”

When Emperor Chongzhen heard this, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and he sneered. Hmph, confess it yourself!

"Your Majesty, the slave and maid are just in charge of the arsenal, and the quality of these armors depends on the War Bureau and the Weapons Bureau!" Wu Tingwei continued to play with an aggrieved expression.

However, when he saw that Emperor Chongzhen's face was very cold, and his eyes were even more dissatisfied, the face of pretending to be aggrieved slowly disappeared, and he could no longer raise his head, and his voice was much quieter: "The slave is lazy, and when handing over the weapons, let his subordinates do it for him, and there is no strict control, so that the quality of the weapons in the warehouse is not high......"

"Enough!" Emperor Chongzhen suddenly snorted coldly, his heart was full of disappointment, this dead eunuch was still lucky, and he shirked his responsibilities again and again, did he really think that he was the previous Chongzhen Emperor, young and easy to fool?

This cold drink made Wu Weiting so frightened that he knelt on the ground, not daring to distinguish anymore, and the courtyard suddenly fell silent.

After waiting for a while, Chen Er came out of the warehouse, with a shocked face, and strode to the front of the palace to say: "Your Majesty, although there are many armor and ordnance in the warehouse, most of them are shoddy, and they may be worn in ordinary times, but once a war starts, most of those armor and ordnance will be misguided!" ”

Speaking of this, he paused slightly, then turned to point to the armor behind him and said, "These are the best in the storeroom." Armor of this quality probably does not exceed a hundred in the storeroom. ”

After Emperor Chongzhen heard this, he waved his hand to Chen Er and asked him to stand aside, and then stared at Wu Weiting who was kneeling in front of him, and saw that his body was trembling slightly, so he said coldly: "When the weapons are put into storage, it is the time when you receive bribes, right?" Even if your subordinates collect it, will it be possible that they will not give you an offering? This kind of thing, I can guess with my toes! ”

Wu Weiting's body trembled even more, and he didn't dare to reply, so he just lay there.

"Come on, take it to Jinyi Wei Prison, and then play it to me after verifying the specific situation!" As soon as Emperor Chongzhen gave an order, the captain of the Jinyi Guard who was driving with him pounced like a wolf, dragging Wu Weiting, who was like a puddle of mud, and left.

The end of the Ming Dynasty was a mess, and now we have to start cleaning it up one by one! Emperor Chongzhen thought in his heart, so he ordered the eunuch of the Military War Bureau and the ambassador of the Ministry of Industry and Ordnance Bureau to meet him.

However, he was a little uncertain in his heart, whether the matter related to weapons should be strictly investigated to the end. As he said just now, you can know by thinking about it with your toes that in terms of weapons corruption, it is definitely not just the two people who are responsible for such a big corruption case, led by the eunuch of the Arms Bureau and the ambassador of the Arms Bureau.

There is a great possibility that their superiors, as well as the commanders of the various armies and the people in charge of the military department, are all involved in the whole line, otherwise if any link is strict, it will not be like this.

This is true for weapons, but what about the others? As soon as Emperor Chongzhen's thinking diverged, he suddenly felt a little powerless. If you want to prosper the Ming Dynasty, there are still a lot of things to change!

In later life, he had seen several films that reflected Hong Kong in the 70s. At that time, Hong Kong was all corrupt, just as it is now at the end of the Ming Dynasty. Eventually, the Independent Commission Against Corruption was established, and after arresting a number of people, it was announced that other corrupt people were not to blame in the past, so that the situation slowly improved.

Speaking of which, in an environment where everyone is greedy, it is impossible for someone not to be greedy, this is the so-called people in the rivers and lakes, and they can't help themselves.

Thinking of this, Emperor Chongzhen sighed in his heart, and then ordered: "After the two of them arrive, let them take a good look at the treasury by themselves, and they don't have to see me." ”

After finishing speaking, after thinking about it, he added: "Bring Wu Weiting back, throw it in the warehouse, and let him take a closer look." ”

After explaining everything, Emperor Chongzhen drove back. If you don't think about corruption, all your efforts will be in vain.

I just went back and received good news. The results of the auction of the shares of the Daming Construction Bank came back from the Tianfu side, and the amount of the 20 percent of the shares was a little more than the 29 percent of the shares auctioned by Jingshi, which was about 40 million taels of silver.

It can be seen from this that the wealth on the Jiangnan side is far from being comparable to that of the Jingshi side. The people's understanding of this bank is far from being comparable to that of Jingshi.

When you open a bank, the more money you have, the better. Emperor Chongzhen was overjoyed after receiving the report, and immediately officially issued an order that the Ming Construction Bank opened a branch in the provincial capital of two capitals and thirteen provinces, and laid the first financial network for the entire Ming Dynasty. And in Yingtianfu opened the Ming Central Bank Yingtianfu branch, as for other provincial capitals, it will be postponed for a while, there is really no financial professional talent available. After returning to the training, the branches of the Daming Central Bank in the provincial capitals will be opened.

As a result, the Jingshi became even more lively. When everyone heard that the silver of the Daming Construction Bank was going to be handed over from the treasury of the household department, and handed over to the Daming Central Bank in exchange for Daming banknotes, they all heard the news, not to rob, but to feast their eyes. In this life, it is estimated that I have seen the most silver taels this time.

There were some people in Beijing who couldn't figure it out, and muttered while watching: "What is the court doing, just give the Ming banknotes directly, and still toss it like this?" ”

"That's right, move over, move over, this time, it is estimated that a large number of people will have to be busy for two or three days!"

“……”

Hearing them say this, those who understand have a sense of superiority, and explain to these people: "You don't understand this, if the court doesn't follow this process, don't you worry that the bank's silver will be floated away by the household department?" If you don't take it out so brightly and exchange it for the same amount of Daming banknotes, aren't you worried that Daming banknotes will be issued more, and you can't change them when you go back to exchange banknotes for silver? If the imperial court does this, will everyone have confidence in the central bank of the Ming Dynasty......"
