At present, there are still more than 600,000 taels of stolen money left, but there are many places where the center has to spend money, such as the salaries of hundreds of officials, the expenses of the royal family, the administrative expenses of various state capitals, the resettlement and pension of the military and civilians, and so on. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

600,000 taels of silver seems to be a lot, but it is only enough to guard the pro-army for four months. In fact, it is impossible for all the 600,000 taels of stolen money to be used for the military supplies of the guards and pro-army, and it must be used for other expenses, so the center is now very short of money.

First: Mobilize the gentry and large households in Guangxi and Guangdong prefectures to donate.

second: expropriate excess silver and grain deposits in the official treasury of the state capitals in the control area;

Third: to call for the payment of money and grain in the capital of Guangxi, all those who are in arrears over the years must make up for it, and they must not be in arrears at all;

Except for the bearded officials, this is almost all the courtiers can think of.

In fact, the first order to mobilize the gentry and large households in Guangxi and Guangdong prefectures to donate was issued for three days, and the response was indeed very few, and those squires and rich people did not understand the difficulties of the imperial court, they did not have the concept of survival in the world, and some were only one acre and three points of land in their own homes.

Although Zhu Youlang has long known that most of those squires and old wealth are iron roosters, he still underestimated the stinginess of those people, and those squires and old wealth told the emperor with facts and told the court that they were not iron roosters, but stainless steel chickens, and it was impossible to scrape some rust off them, let alone the silver for nothing. Therefore, the first decree has little effect and is equivalent to nullification.

Before the defense of Wuzhou, the silver and grain stocks of the governors of Guangxi had already been collected by the central bank, and there was already very little money and grain left in the treasury, and the treasury of the provincial governments that had just been recovered was even more empty, and it was necessary to rely on the central allocation of money and grain to operate, and the money and grain in the treasury had already been collected by the Qing court, and the treasury of many prefectures and counties was so clean that even the rats could not stay, and if they did not leave, they would have to starve to death.

As for the third order to urge the payment of money and grain from various prefectures and counties in Guangxi, the effect is there, but it is only delayed and not urgent, and the payment of taxes is still in progress, and it will not be able to gather in Lindu for a while and a half.

To sum up, most of the suggestions given by the courtiers are not realistic, and it is difficult to solve the urgent need.

And the suggestion of selling the official mantle was not adopted by Zhu Youlang, the scarcity is precious, the emperor relies on money and the name to control the courtiers, once the name is flooded, it will inevitably depreciate, and even impact the system, further undermining the Ming Dynasty discipline, if the court is no longer worthless, will those civil and military generals still be effective and loyal to the power?

In Fujian and Zhejiang, the areas ruled by the kings of Longwu and Lu, the famous lords were flooded, because the official position was too cheap, three hundred taels of silver could buy a ministry, and later it was even reduced to one hundred taels, let alone below the ministry. Although they are all empty titles, and there is neither a fortune nor a yamen, almost all people with a little extra money pay to get an official rank like buying fashionable objects, so that when the yamen tries a case, the soap subordinates standing on both sides are competent officials, which is really a big joke in the world.

This phenomenon reached Zhu Youlang's ears, which made him extremely angry, it would really be hellish if such a regime could prosper the Ming Dynasty, so he knew that he could get 100,000 taels of silver for selling his official position and lord, and alleviate the financial crisis of the center, Zhu Youlang still did not agree.

In a blink of mind, Chen Bangyan had already prepared the wording: "Your Majesty has previously decreed that all major households should pledge silver, wealth, grain and grass as military salaries. In addition, he ordered all the prefectures and counties to release all the unresolved silver from the treasury to Beijing for use, and the minister felt that these measures were good. When he saw Zhu Youlang's brows furrowed slightly, he suddenly wanted to speak and stopped: "It's just ......"

"Just what?" Zhu Youlang unconsciously followed his words and asked.

Chen Bangyan didn't answer, but his eyes swept over the palace maids and eunuchs behind the emperor, and those palace maids and eunuchs were taken aback when they saw this, knowing that this was a confidential matter, they secretly looked at the emperor's facial expressions and the movements of his hands, but they didn't see any instructions from the emperor, and they didn't dare to automatically avoid going out.

Since Guo Chenghao was executed for his rebellion, the identities of the eunuchs and palace maids in the emperor's office have been screened, and as long as there is a trace of abnormality, they will be secretly executed.

Finally, they saw that the emperor's chin swayed slightly, and these palace maids and little eunuchs tiptoed out, and even the personal guards were repelled by Zhu Youlang with a wave of his hand, in order to show their absolute trust in Chen Bangyan.

Now there are only two people left in the hall, Zhu Youlang and Chen Bangyan, Zhu Youlang is sitting upright, and said respectfully: "Aiqing has all the suggestions to say." ”

Chen Bangyan was deeply moved by the emperor's trust, and he bowed down and said: "The minister thinks that although these measures are good, they are indeed not the best policy. ”

Zhu Youlang perked up when he heard this, and said, "Say it quickly!" ”
