Chapter 652: I Want Them All!
If Jia Liu has the right to sell the Forbidden City, he will definitely sell tickets to the Forbidden City on a part-time basis, thus contributing to the construction of the national treasury.
In the same way, as the governor of Zhili and the minister in charge of Jingling, it is impossible for him not to carry out reasonable development of Jingling.
Because Jia Liu always believed that the emperor had no qualifications and no power to bring the wealth created by the people underground.
He personally advocated a thin burial.
In the future, he is going to die, so he just took a few changes of underwear with him and lay in the coffin.
At most, let his children and grandchildren burn more paper money for him, or burn more silver tickets.
If you have money, you can't buy anything over there?
The Jingling maintenance project written by the Ministry of Rites Shangshu Kuini was finally approved in the court, because the events of the country in the past two years are enough to prove that there is a big problem with the feng shui of the Qing Dynasty.
Whether it is the Jinchuan War, the Shandong Rebellion, or the Huguang Rebellion that has now corrupted the two provinces, it shows that the Qing Empire has been in a bad year and is going downhill.
Of course, this is the reason for the bright picture.
The deeper reason behind it is the palace turmoil caused by the death of the Queen Mother and the ominous events in the city.
If the Holy Grandfather's underground palace had not seeped water and damaged the feng shui of the Great Qing Dynasty, these things might not have happened.
Last year, what happened in Jingzhou Mancheng and Jingshi Mancheng caused the total number of Zhenmanchu to drop by as much as 150,000, accounting for 10% of the total population of the Eight Banners of Manchuria.
God is pitiful, the Qing Dynasty entered the customs and fought so many battles, and there was no loss of more than 100,000 Manchurians at one time!
So, it's not that the feng shui of the Great Qing Dynasty is broken, what is it?
To rescue the Qing Dynasty, it is urgent!
The princes are no longer satisfied with Qianlong, but they still respect the Holy Ancestor Kangxi.
The old man who wants to be a pot tinker in the Qing Dynasty has no reason to object, after all, Feng Shui is really bad, and it is related to whether the old twelve who he supports can successfully ascend the throne and whether he can lead the Qing Dynasty to Zhongxing.
It is rare that all parties unanimously passed the maintenance of Jingling proposed by the Ministry of Rites.
It's not too late to make amends.
The old rich asked the Ministry of Household Affairs to allocate 250,000 taels, and the Ministry of Internal Affairs contributed 300,000 taels, a total of 550,000 taels for the renovation of the Holy Grandfather's house.
The Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of Industry, the Ministry of Internal Affairs and other units sent a joint working group to Jingling, led by the Military Aircraft Department and the Ministry of Rites; The deputy team leaders are Lang Enming, the head of the Ministry of Works, and Jin Jian, the minister of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
Enming was just transferred from Anhui to Beijing two months ago and promoted to the post of Erpin Shilang, and he was personally ordered by Lao Fu, because Enming's Ama was the bell sound of the governor of Fujian and Zhejiang.
Zhong Yin has a close relationship with Lao Fu, and is a political ally that Lao Fu has managed to win over in the first half of the year, and now he is serving as a banquet speaker, vice president of the Santong Pavilion and Siku Quanshuguan, and the post of Mongolian Metropolitan of Zhenglan Banner and Minister of the Interior.
Returning the favor, Zhong Yin politically supported Fu Zhongtang, and of course Fu Zhongtang wanted to return the benefits, so Enming, the envoy from the third grade, entered Beijing like a rocket from the place to be the waiter from the second grade.
Jin Jian was the first to take refuge in Lao Fu, who was very influential in the Internal Affairs Office and was the main helper of Lao Fu in controlling the Internal Affairs Office.
At the beginning, Jin Jian went to play in the alley and was caught by the guards under Jia Liu, who was then the governor of Jiumen, and later made up the identity of the small director of the Guangchu Department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, paid a fine of 300 taels, and passed the customs in confusion.
I have to say, very anxious.
Before the joint working group left Beijing, Jia Liu received a secret letter from Lao Fu, and did not mention anything else, that is, he asked the imperial court to take the majority of the income from the development of Jingling, and Jia Liu, as the head of the land, could only take a small head.
The reason is that the treasury has no money, and Huguang uses silver like water every day, and the official document of Fengsheng urging food is issued almost every three days.
Originally, it was possible to collect a sum of money by selling officials, but the reply of the Ministry of Officials said that everything that could be sold from the official positions below the fifth grade had been sold, and even some official vacancies had been pre-sold in advance until the 60th year of Qianlong.
This made the old rich man so angry that he asked his good brother and sixth son on the spot.
It is unrealistic to make a big donation, the Queen Mother just made a big donation when she celebrated her 80th birthday, and how long will it take to make a big donation, I am afraid that the prestige of the imperial court will plummet.
There was no choice but to send a document to the Lianghuai Salt Administration, asking for donations from salt merchants, and if they did not donate, they would lend silver to the imperial court.
In addition, it is to listen to He Shen's advice and start to promote the work of discussing crime and silver throughout the country, although it cannot cure the root cause, but at least it can solve the urgent need.
I have to say that He Shen is really a little expert in financial management, under his auspices, in May alone, the whole country will collect more than 1.4 million taels of silver, more than 1.7 million taels in June, and there is no amount in July and August for the time being, but it will certainly not be less than 2 million taels.
The Lianghuai Salt Administration also borrowed or donated more than 3 million taels of silver from the salt merchants, but as soon as the silver was collected, it was all transported to the general of Huguang Dingxi, and the old rich man didn't even see a hair.
According to the statistics of the Ministry of Households, this year's military expenditure alone is as high as more than 30 million taels.
If the war drags on until next year, it is likely that more than 50 million taels of silver will be needed.
Spending is no longer a horror, but a horror.
At that time, the troops were used in the west, and it took five years to pacify the two departments and return to the two departments, and the silver used was only more than 30 million taels. With soldiers Burma with 10 million taels of silver, with soldiers Jinchuan, with more than 40 million taels of silver, plus the 70th and 80th birthday of the Queen Mother and funerals in the middle, the emperor paraded several times, and the empty treasury was described as a horse-drawn carriage.
Otherwise, it would be impossible for the household department to squeeze out only 250,000 taels for the Holy Grandfather to repair the house.
Therefore, the old rich man also set his sights on the underground palace of the Holy Grandfather.
According to the records of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the burial items in the underground palace of the Holy Grandfather are worth tens of millions of taels, and there are several priceless treasures.
Not to mention taking out all of them, even if you take half of them, you can hold them for a while.
The Minister of the Ministry of Works, Lang Eunmyung, and the Minister of the Interior, Kim Jian, came to supervise the maintenance project.
To put it bluntly, it's a matter of watching the scene.
Prevent the Ministry of Rites from colluding with the governor of Zhili and swallowing up the tens of millions of family assets of the Holy Grandfather.
How much is the big head?
How much is a small head?
Jia Liu's journey to Jingling was difficult, the territory was his, the idea was his, why should the income be given to the rich man?
He also pointed to Jingling's income to give blood transfusions to Zhili Dafa.
The development of Taeling provided a large amount of money for the new policy of Zhili.
Only 500 solid gold bricks are worth millions of taels of silver, although they were extorted a large amount by the old man, the rest of the valuable artifacts and the remaining gold bricks are worth a total of three or four million taels.
It is because of the market problem that many valuable artifacts cannot be realized at the moment, and it will take several years to digest them.
But sooner or later it will be sold.
Now Zhili is engaged in projects everywhere and uses money everywhere, and the development work of Jingling must be mentioned on the board.
There's no reason to dig up Zhao Si's grave and not dig his father's grave.
As soon as he arrived at Jingling, Queenie, who had been notified, came to greet him.
This is the second time that the brother-in-law and brother-in-law have met again after several months, and the joy on their faces is obvious to all.
Queenie looks much younger, I don't know if it's because Sister Yu'er is so moisturized.
Jia Liu was very greedy, but he could only forcibly press down the heart of re-entering the old way.
Queenie, not an outsider.
This time, Fu Zhongtang asked Enming and Jin Jian to come over and watch, and the lower officials thought that things were afraid that it would be difficult to handle, and it was best for adults to discuss with Fu Zhongtang, whether it was three seven or four six."
Queenie suggested that the brother-in-law reach an agreement with Fu Zhongtang on how to divide the spoils, so as to avoid the vicious incident that caused by the uneven distribution of the spoils that affected the law and order of the Qing Dynasty.
"Divide his grandmother's claws!"
Jia Liu made a grabbing motion with both hands on his chest, "I want them all!" ”
