Chapter 109: The old emperor and the old monk are stunned!
I'll go to your uncle's.
My second uncle is really a bastard.
I kindly gave him an idea, and when I came to him, I sold myself directly!
Let him Zhu Zhanji find a way.....
Where does he go to figure it out?
You spent the money, and when he returned it, he would figure it out???
If the imperial court owes tens of millions of taels of silver, where will he find a way?
These tens of millions of taels of silver, just a part of the income, he can't afford to pay it back.
After all, the finances of the entire Ming Dynasty are only about 30 million taels of silver a year.
He figured it out..... What can you do?
Wouldn't it be enough to just give you your head?
However, Zhu Zhanji can't just let his second uncle fool around, if he is really shameless, he will issue treasury bonds regardless of what to do in the future, he was cool when he was in charge of the country, and the old man will give him whatever he wants, and the two of them will go to war with their brains crooked.
After he Zhu Zhanji ascended the throne, he Zhu Zhanji had to pay back all the money.
Treasury bonds are not equal to wealth management products, but they just use the future income of the imperial court in advance.
Immediately, Zhu Zhanji said to the second uncle: "Second uncle, although these things that the old man asked you to do have been solved temporarily. But you haven't thought about whether there will be other errands after this is over? ”
"If Grandpa asks you to do this kind of thing again and again, no matter how good the method of this national debt is, how many times can it support you to use it? The last time the Shenji battalion was expanded, it was hundreds of thousands of taels of silver, and this time, the military salary was a full 2 million taels of silver. What about next time, 5 million taels? 10 million taels? After a year, when the imperial court should repay these debts, what will you do to repay them? ”
"Could it be that second uncle, you are addicted to prison, just one year is enough?"
Listening to Zhu Zhanji's 'earnest teachings', the second uncle Zhu Gaoxu gradually became on the road.
I know that it is very possible to do this kind of thing as an old man, but when the time comes, what should I do?
As the eldest nephew said, is it possible that he will only sit in the position of the prison country for a year?
At that time, the silver taels owed by the imperial court for the issuance of treasury bonds will not have to be repaid by themselves? How happy I am when I spend my money now, how sad I am when it comes to repaying the money.
After figuring out the reasoning. Zhu Gaoxu also felt that this matter could not be done so easily.
After all, that's a whole two million taels of silver!
One-tenth of the annual finances of the entire imperial court.
Tens of millions of people are taxed.
Although it may sound like it is easy to get money nowadays, it is backed by the credit of the imperial court.
Once the slightest mistake is made, the credibility of the entire court will be lost.
In the future, let alone the issuance of treasury bonds, you just borrow a tael of silver from others, and they have to consider whether they can live without these two pieces of silver.
couldn't help but calm down Zhu Gaoxu from his previous excitement.
"Eldest nephew, what should you do next in this matter?"
Seeing that the second uncle gradually calmed down from the initial ecstasy, Zhu Zhanji also said slowly: "Since we all know that after the old man has completed this matter, he will intensify his demands to do more things and prepare more silver, then should we delay this matter first and wait until we have to do it." ”
"Or, show the old man that he is doing his best, in short, we must get the old man's promise that we will not ask for more money when we will do it."
Listening to Zhu Zhanji's words, Zhu Gaochu on the side nodded very seriously, and he also agreed with Zhu Zhanji's idea very much, but when he thought of what to do, Zhu Gaoxu couldn't help but ask: "Eldest nephew, I also understand the truth you said, second uncle, but what should we do specifically?" How can you get the old man to promise not to spend more money? ”
"You also know the temper and character of the old man, he has more eyes than anyone else, and he will not make such a guarantee at any time, unless he is forced to do so."
After hearing this from his second uncle Zhu Gaoxu, Zhu Zhanji immediately pointed to his second uncle and said, "Second uncle, aren't you talking to the point?" It is basically impossible to force the old man to make any promises as you and me. But in the entire Ming Dynasty, who could make the old man make such a promise? ”
Following Zhu Zhanji's words, Zhu Gaoxu thought about it carefully.
In the end, he suddenly said: "Every time the old man wants to fight, he needs the imperial court to raise military salaries, isn't it your father who takes hundreds of officials to advise?" ”
"Every time, the old man is half angry, but he can't help but listen. If they had gone to admonish him this time, perhaps the old man would have been able to promise something. ”
While saying this, Zhu Gaoxu himself was carefully examining this method, and when he finally finished speaking, he became more and more recognized by this method.
Looking at his second uncle Zhu Gaoxu, he slowly thought of a way, Zhu Zhanji couldn't help but smile and said, "Second uncle, since you have thought of a way, then go and do it." ”
Small kiosk
However, after hearing Zhu Zhanji's words, Zhu Gaoxu thought about it carefully.
There are still some things that I haven't thought of, and he said: "But this solution has been thought of, but how to do it?" ”
Listening to the words of his second uncle Zhu Gaoxu, Zhu Zhanji was worried about a headache.
I've thought of this method, how to do it, and I still need to arrange it for him step by step?
But there is no way, the matter has come to this point, even in order to let himself pay less money in the future and achieve real lying flat as soon as possible, he has to carefully plan for the second uncle.
As Zhu Zhanji whispered in the second uncle's ear, he explained the detailed implementation measures.
Second Uncle Zhu Gaoxu's face was also constantly changing, until Zhu Zhanji explained the whole method, and the second uncle Zhu Gaochu finally showed a look of surprise.
"I said eldest nephew, how long is your head, how can you think of any way."
Hearing that his second uncle Zhu Gaoxu was going to praise himself in the end, Zhu Zhanji hurriedly frowned, waved his hand and said: "Okay, okay, don't talk nonsense between our uncle and nephew, second uncle, hurry up and get down to business." ”
In fact, there is no need for Zhu Zhanji to say, after thinking of such a wonderful method, Zhu Gaoxu's mind didn't know where to drift for a long time.
"Okay, okay, second uncle won't bother you, you kid better have a good rest, remember to take care of your brain."
Just now, I was screaming at a big nephew, but now that the matter is done, it will become 'you kid'.
However, now Zhu Zhanji really doesn't have the time and energy to talk to him anymore, so he hurriedly put out a fake smile and sent him away.
And after his second uncle Zhu Gaoxu left, Zhu Zhanji also lay down behind the chair.
Tired.....
On weekdays, whether he is talking to Zhu Zhanyong's kid or his father Zhu Gaochi, he Zhu Zhanji has never worked so hard, everything has to be said clearly, and there can be no mistakes at all.
I'm afraid that this second uncle with a bad brain will do it.
At this time, the crown princess, who was standing at the corner of the lobby door and eavesdropping, poked her head out, looked at her son's tired face, and couldn't help but feel a little apologetic.
A little embarrassed, he walked slowly in front of Zhu Zhanji.
"Son."
Zhu Zhanji, who was closing his eyes and recuperating, hurriedly got up and looked over when he heard his mother's voice at first glance.
"What's the matter, mother."
looked at her son's crown princess, and asked apologetically, "Did my mother cause you trouble?" ”
Zhu Zhanji, who heard this, was stunned at first, but in a blink of an eye, he understood the meaning of his old lady's words.
Then he smiled and said, "Mother, what are you talking about?" What's the trouble? This second uncle came to give his son more than 100,000 taels of silver, how can this matter be called troublesome? It's too late for your son to be happy, so you can give your son more trouble like this. ”
After hearing these words from Zhu Zhanji's mouth, the old lady and the princess suddenly asked with a surprised face: "More than 100,000 taels?!" ”
Hearing this, Zhu Zhanji suddenly realized that he seemed to have said something wrong, and hurriedly said: "Actually, it's not because this is a business matter, and there are no more than 100,000 taels in the hands of his son, so it's ..... A few thousand taels of silver. ”
But the old lady said: "A few thousand taels, and that's it...?" ”
"Son, your second uncle only gave his mother less than five hundred taels of silver, and his mother worked so hard to manage this prince's mansion, you have to compensate your mother a little, right?"
looked at the old lady who felt guilty for doing something wrong just now, and at this time she had already discussed with him how to divide the profits.
While looking confused, Zhu Zhanji couldn't help laughing.
"Okay, okay, all listen to your mother."
"Tomorrow, my son will ask the third child to send some silver back to the house, okay?"
After getting her son's promise, the old lady Zhang Yan finally showed a satisfied smile on her face.
"Yes, since it's okay, then the mother will go back first."
"Okay."
After sending the old lady away, I don't know when, Hu Shanxiang slowly came behind Zhu Zhanji, and a pair of jade hands slowly stretched out on his shoulders, gently pressing for him.
Zhu Zhanji just looked down at the jade hand on his shoulder, and knew the identity of the person behind him.
Let her pinch her body.
Early the next morning.
In the originally quiet Jiming Temple, a large group of people were ushered in.
Early in the morning, under the leadership of Zhu Gaoxu, the king of the Han Dynasty, they knelt in front of the door of the old man Zhu Di's wing.
Among these people are not only the officials of the imperial cabinet and the six ministries, but also the crown prince Zhu Gaochi of the current dynasty.
As the little eunuch outside the door of the wing room returned to the wing room and reported, the old man Zhu Di inside also slowly walked out of it.
seems to have guessed the purpose of some of these people coming here, and the old man Zhu Di's face is not very good-looking.
Coming to the front of their group of people, Zhu Di said with a calm face to the crown prince Zhu Gaochi and the Han king Zhu Gaochu: "The prince? Lord Han? ”
"What, look at the old man, I'm old and want to rebel?"
Obviously, the old man Zhu Di didn't eat them, so he said preemptively.
Facing the old man's reproach, the prince and the king of Han hurriedly bowed to the old man: "Dad, how dare we have such thoughts!" ”
"Oh? Can't? So what are you doing here? Kneeling in front of the door with the officials of the imperial court, isn't it forcing the palace? ”
Hearing this, the officials behind King Han and the crown prince also kowtowed to the emperor.
"Wechen don't dare..."
Looking at their respectful appearances, Zhu Di didn't delve any further, but asked in a deep voice, "What are you doing?" Go ahead. ”
But as soon as the words came out, the old man Zhu Di said again: "If you are here to persuade me to give up the Northern Expedition, then you can go back, if you don't want to go back, kneel here." ”
Hearing the old man's words, the crown prince led by him was the first to say: "Dad, we didn't come here this time to ask you to give up the northern expedition, since Dad, you have made up your mind, how dare we disobey." I just want to go to the emperor to be a little considerate of the people of the world, and I will go to the north, but can I not use the future of the entire court on reckless military force. ”
"The expansion of the Shenji Battalion has also been expanded, and the artillery of the firearms research yamen has also been expanded. The armor and weapons of the soldiers have also been crafted. Now that you want to raise 2 million taels of military salaries for the Northern Expedition, we have nothing to say. But please also ask the emperor to stop in moderation....."
After the crown prince Zhu Gaochi saw his father put those princeling officials in prison, he knew that the old man's northern expedition was unstoppable.
Therefore, after the second child promised not to increase taxes in various places and raise two million taels of silver for the Northern Expedition, Zhu Gaochi also compromised on the Northern Expedition.
However, the old man Zhu Di keenly heard something wrong in Zhu Gaochi's words.
"Desperate for military force? Stop? I only asked the court to raise 2 million taels of military salaries, and there were no other requirements. When did I go to war? When did you not understand the people of the world? ”
After hearing Zhu Di's words, everyone present was stunned.
couldn't help but turn everyone's eyes to Zhu Gaoxu, the king of Han on the side.
And the Han King Zhu Gaoxu also looked at his father Zhu Di with a blank face.
Zhu Di also saw something strange in the eyes of these people, and immediately looked at his second child and asked, "King Han!" ”
"Erchen is here!"
"Come!"
Han King Zhu Gaoxu looked at his father blankly, and after thinking about it, he hurriedly knelt on the ground with a frightened face, and said, "Father, it was the son who misunderstood what his father meant. ”
"Erchen heard from the side that in addition to the two million taels of military salary, his father was going to double the entire Shenji Battalion, and he was anxious for a while, so he said a few words to the elder, it was Erchen who misunderstood his father, and asked his father to punish him!"
After saying that, he knelt on the ground and slammed his head on the ground.
As Zhu Gaoxu finished speaking, everyone present reacted that the doubling of the expansion of the Shenji Battalion was not the emperor's request.
Zhu Gaochi, who was kneeling beside Zhu Gaoxu, also looked at his second child helplessly, how could he still hear about such a national event from the side......
The old emperor Zhu Di was also a little annoyed by the recklessness of the second Zhu Gaoxu.
Just listened to a rumor, and brought the officials and princes of the court to advise, when did this second child have such courage!
However, in addition to being annoyed, Zhu Di also had some joy in his heart.
The second child made such a play, although it was a misunderstanding and misunderstood his meaning, but it was crooked.
Originally, he had been worried about whether his northern expedition would be supported by the court, and how should his 2 million taels of military salary be raised?
After all, in his opinion, it is absolutely impossible for the second child to raise these military salaries.
Now that he is so troubled, these officials are tantamount to agreeing to his northern expedition.
Especially the boss Zhu Gaochi.
On weekdays, he was the most troublesome, but now he agreed to the Northern Expedition because he wanted to double the Shenji Battalion.
If he didn't know that the second child's brain couldn't have come up with such a way, otherwise he would have thought that the second child would have done it on purpose.
But he was not the only one who thought so, even Zhu Gaochi, who was kneeling on the ground, was also a little puzzled.
The second child did this, could it be that he did it so that he could agree to the Northern Expedition?
But as long as they don't increase taxes with the people, what does it have to do with those who don't go north to the north?
As long as the court doesn't pay for it, you father and son can do whatever they like.
But if that's the case, then why did the second child call them to come to the old man's place?
Could it be that he really made a mistake?
At this moment, the emperor Zhu Di also spoke.
"Mistaken? I heard a rumor, so I brought this prince and the officials of the court to advise me? King Han, you are so bold....."
Listening to the old man's words, Zhu Gaoxu hurriedly knocked a few times in front of the old man, and said in a panic: "Father, this matter is all to blame on the son-in-law, it was the son-in-law who listened to the rumors and asked the father to punish him!" ”
When the old man Zhu Di heard this, although he faintly felt that there was something wrong with the second child today, he couldn't think of anything wrong with the second child.
In the end, he could only say: "The punishment must be punished, so I will fine you 10,000 taels of silver from the Han Wangfu as military salary, are you willing?" ”
Hearing that the old man only asked for 10,000 taels of silver for military expenses, Zhu Gaoxu's heart blossomed with joy.
"The retainers are willing to be punished!"
After getting the second child's reply, Zhu Di was also inexplicably made by them.
But the good news is that the results are all good.
With an extra 10,000 taels of silver, and the support of the officials of the DPRK and the central government and the crown prince in the matter of the Northern Expedition, this surprise is really good.
Nothing was done, and the matter was settled.
But even if I want to laugh in my heart, I still have to endure this surface.
"Alright, get out, it's annoying to look at you people."
Hearing the old man's drive, everyone hurriedly got up and left towards the outside of the Jiming Temple.
When everyone came to the outside of the Jiming Temple, the crown prince Zhu Gaochi was the first to ask suspiciously: "Second brother, what is your idea?" ”
Facing the boss's questioning, Zhu Gaoxu suddenly said helplessly: "Big brother, what idea can I fight your brother, this good student was also fined 10,000 taels of silver, what do you say I have to fight, is it my own trick?" ”
Listening to the words of the second child, the crown prince Zhu Gaochi thought about it, and this is also the truth.
The second child promised not to take silver from the imperial court, nor to increase taxes for the people, so he naturally had no opinion on the northern expedition.
His second child is not a lied to himself.
Thinking about it, I can only regard this matter as a reckless move by the second child, a spur of the moment after hearsay.
After all, with his usual actions and habits, it is not impossible to do such a thing.
Seeing this, I won't say anything more.
When he was about to say something to the second child, and then went back to his prince's mansion, he never thought that the second child was more anxious than him, as if he was in a hurry to do something, and after he was in a hurry to say goodbye to him, he rode away alone.
Vaguely, the crown prince Zhu Gaochi looked at his back, feeling that there must be something in this background that he didn't know.
But his understanding of his second child is absolutely impossible to have these thoughts.
After thinking about it, I can only blame this on my own kid.
Thinking of this, the crown prince Zhu Gaochi couldn't stay any longer, and hurriedly said goodbye to these officials behind him, and returned to his house in a carriage.
Seeing the prince and the prince of Han leaving in a hurry one by one, these officials were all at a loss.
What the hell is going on, so urgent.
Just when the people present were puzzled, at this moment, in the Jiming Temple.
In Zhu Di's wing.
The old man finally couldn't help laughing.
Yao Guangxiao, an old monk sitting on the ground, looked at the emperor who was laughing at this time, and instead of smiling, his face was solemn.
Soon, the old man Zhu Di also saw that something was wrong with the old monk Yao Guangxiao, and couldn't help frowning and asking, "Old monk, what kind of expression do you have?" ”
Hearing Zhu Di's inquiry, the old monk Yao Guangxiao also said with some hesitation: "What the emperor said between the emperor and the king of Han just now, the poor monks also heard everything. ”
"But for some reason, the poor monk always felt that this matter was quite strange."
Hearing this, Zhu Di also remembered his doubts at that moment just now, and said: "I also think that the second child is a little abnormal today, but I can't think of where the abnormality is." ”
Seeing that Zhu Di was the same, Yao Guangxiao said in an affirmative tone: "If something goes wrong, there must be a demon!" ”
Seeing that the old monk was so sure, the doubts in Zhu Di's heart became more and more intense.
But I really can't think of anything wrong.
After carefully thinking about it for a while, the old man Zhu Di still called the Jinyi guard and the little eunuch of Dongchang outside the door in.
Ordered them to each cautiously monitor the movements of the Han Palace's Mansion and the Prince's Mansion.
Since you can't figure it out, look at what exactly they're doing and get the information you want from their actions.
At the same time, when Zhu Gaoxu, the king of Han, returned to the palace of the Han Dynasty, he immediately called his third child, Zhu Gaosui, the king of Zhao.
At the same time that Zhu Gaosui, the king of Zhao, went to the Han Palace, he also brought several clan nobles in the capital.
These are the clansmen who have the best relationship with King Han and King Zhao in private on weekdays.
In the secret room of the Han Palace.
When Zhu Gaoxu, the king of the Han Dynasty, carefully explained the matter of the national debt to them.
These people all seem to be ready to move.
A year is a quarter of a profit.....
In the current situation of the implementation of the new policy, the life of their clansmen is not easy.
In the past, all you need to do is pile up money on that land, and no matter how well it is managed, the annual income will never be less.
But now, it's not going to work.
Especially those mansions that are not good at taking care of these things on weekdays, the benefits are much less.
It also makes them worry about their future livelihoods.
Now when I hear that there is such a good thing, not only is there a lot of profit, but the most important thing is to simply protect the capital.
You don't have to do anything, you can get a lot of money by taking out the money.
They had never heard of such a good thing.
But after all, this is the first time I've seen this kind of thing, and it's inevitable that there will be some drums in my heart.
Especially for this Han prince, although he is not bad on weekdays, but when it comes to the critical moment, there may be some stubble.
At that time, this Han prince will not be as reliable as the crown prince.
Although this matter is backed by the imperial court, isn't this imperial court their old Zhu family?
When the time comes, if there is really a stubble, can they really find it?
Just when everyone present is ready to move, but they are worried about whether this matter is reliable.
Zhu Gaoxu, the king of the Han Dynasty, suddenly said: "Of course, I also know that you brothers still have doubts in their hearts, and I don't know whether this matter is reliable or not, but what should be said, this king has also said that in the event of any loss, there will be the imperial court to guarantee the principal and interest." Not a penny less. ”
"But if you really don't believe it, or maybe you don't need it, this king won't force it. However, there is one thing that I need to ask you for a favor. ”
Hearing Zhu Gaoxu's words, everyone couldn't help asking: "King Han, please say, if you can help, you will do your best." ”
Hearing this, Zhu Gaoxu smiled and said, "It's not a big deal, maybe it's a good thing for you." That is, I still have some land deeds in the Han King's Mansion, and this king wants to sell them to you at the normal price, and recently the silver on hand is not enough. ”
Listening to Zhu Gaoxu's words, many of the clansmen present couldn't help but wonder: "Lord Han, what happened?" Let you get to the point of selling land? ”
In this regard, Zhu Gaoxu did not hide it, and said directly: "A total of two million taels of treasury bonds have been issued, and now the income of the land in the hands is getting lower and lower, and I have to work hard to toss, and this king does not want to trouble, I want to sell these land deeds to you, and I will buy this treasury bond myself." ”
Looking at Zhu Gaoxu, the king of Han with a relaxed smile on his face, one of the clan relatives couldn't help asking, "Lord Wang, how much are you going to buy this time?" ”
Zhu Gaoxu said with a smile: "It depends on how much land you can buy under the name of this king..."
Hearing this, everyone was shocked.
"Lord Wang, are you going to sell all those lands?"
Zhu Zhanji smiled and nodded: "With such a good doorway, this king is still worried about what to do with those land cultivations, and he has to send someone to check the accounts every year, troublesome!" ”
"However, let's talk about it first, you can't take the opportunity to lower the price of the land in my hands....."
Hearing this, everyone knew that King Han was joking, and they couldn't help laughing.
At this moment, Zhu Gaosui, the king of Zhao, was the first to stand up and said: "Second brother, since you have said so, then brother, I can't give this good opportunity to others, a total of two million taels, and I am afraid that people will buy it in the blink of an eye." ”
"In this way, I'll buy a treasury bond of 50,000 taels first!"
Hearing the words of Zhao Wang Zhu Gaosui, the people present were shocked again.
Fifty thousand taels!
The identities and connections of these people cannot be compared with the two princes in front of them, and their family backgrounds are naturally far inferior.
Fifty thousand taels, for some of them, is basically all their belongings.
Seeing King Zhao's generosity, some of the people in the middle couldn't help but be moved.
Before the Han King Zhu Gaoxu could say anything, one of them said in a deep voice: "The King of Han, the brothers all believe in you, and I will buy 10,000 taels!" ”
The man who spoke was not from a good family among their group.
It can only be regarded as an intermediate grade.
Now seeing that he has bought 10,000 taels of national bonds, everyone can't help but be mobilized.
"I'll buy it too! Fifteen thousand taels! That's all the money that can be used at home. ”
"Gotcha! Give Han Wang Ye a cheer, and I'll come for 5,000 taels too! ”
Hearing this person's words, Zhu Gaoxu, the king of the Han Dynasty, hurriedly smiled and said: "Everyone, you are all brothers, cheer for this king, I remember it in my heart." But this king still said the same thing, you look at your own situation, don't force it, this is a sure deal, if I didn't have so much silver in my own hands, otherwise I would have taken it all. ”
"You are all brothers on weekdays, and this king is the first to think of you, this good thing can't be cheaper than others, right?"
Hearing Zhu Gaoxu's words, everyone immediately changed their words.
"Yes, yes, we have to thank Lord Han for having a good thing to think of us!"
For a while, everyone present clapped their ass.
After all, today's Han prince is the superintendent of the imperial court.
This is the .....
In just a quarter of an hour.
In this secret room, a group of people say a word, and I speak.
He received a share of 460,000 taels of national debt.
In this regard, Zhu Gaoxu's heart was also happy.
"Yes, ladies and gentlemen, there are a lot of things to do with this king today, and this is the matter of calling you over, and I will not keep you, and the corresponding documents of the national debt, this king will leave them for you, and when the silver is delivered to the household, this document will be in your hands. Regardless of the time limit, when the time comes, you can go directly to the household to withdraw the silver. ”
"If there is an urgent matter and you need to use it, you can get it back in advance, but the bonus is gone."
Under Zhu Gaoxu's instructions again, everyone said that they all knew.
As these people left, Zhu Gaosui, the king of Zhao on the side, suddenly smiled at the second child beside him and said: "Second brother, I found that you have become a prisoner, and now you have learned the same way as the boss." ”
"However, this time a total of 460,000 taels of shares were sold, which is still a lot short, what are you going to do, second brother? Do you want me to help you get through the wind in the Beijing circle? ”
But Zhu Gaoxu shook his head with a smile and said: "This kind of thing, how can you spread it yourself, just after these people left, this news will soon spread all over the capital, rest assured, the share of these two million, one or two silver will not be less, but will be in short supply." If you pass it on yourself, it's not beautiful. ”
Hearing the words of the second Zhu Gaoxu, the third Zhu Gaosui looked at him in surprise, not knowing where he got his confidence.
That's two million taels of silver.....
However, in the face of the third child's doubts, Zhu Gaoxu didn't care at all.
After all the previous events, he already has absolute trust in what his eldest nephew said.
Since he came up with this solution, it is absolutely impossible to go wrong.
However, when the King of Han and King Zhao were standing together and chatting, at the gate of the Han Palace, a spy from Dongchang followed closely behind those Zongmen who left the Han Palace.
And with the information of these people, it was sent to the Jiming Temple.
After the old emperor Zhu Di heard this information, he immediately laughed.
"I'll just say that this second brother is doing something behind his back, it turns out that he secretly discussed countermeasures with that kid, and he came here today just to block my mouth."
"This uncle and nephew have calculated me!"
Listening to Zhu Di's laughter, Yao Guangxiao on the side also laughed.
However, although they all agreed with Zhu Zhanji's strategy of taking the lead in gagging his mouth this time.
But I don't think there's anything about the national debt.
Four or five cents of profit is not a huge profit for those gentry and magnates.
They didn't believe that the uncle and nephew would be able to raise a huge sum of 2 million taels of silver in the capital by relying on this meagre profit of four or five cents.
Although relying on these clansmen, they raised 460,000 taels of silver in a short period of time.
But these people are all people who have a very good relationship between King Nahan and King Zhao on weekdays.
These people cheer the scene, and they still will.
But what next?
The two million taels of military salaries are still a full 1.54 million taels!
They are too familiar with this kind of thing about raising military salaries, and the more this one goes to the back, the more difficult it is to raise money.
If it was so easy, his old man wouldn't have to worry about the salary for every battle.
.......
The whole night passed quickly.
Just when Zhu Di and the old monk Yao Guangxiao in the Jiming Temple were chatting in the temple as usual.
The gate of the Han Palace's mansion was already overcrowded.
When the clan relatives who claimed their shares yesterday sent the silver to the household department one by one to receive the treasury bonds, they immediately passed on the matter as if showing off.
One by one, they are telling others, which is even more exciting than what Zhu Gaoxu said.
Just to prove that his vision is stronger than others.
In addition, the circle of the powerful in the capital is not very big, and this two families are just that, and now these dozen or so have claimed the share of the national debt, which suddenly caused a big wave among the nobles in the entire Beijing circle.
A lot of people were talking about the national debt over breakfast.
After all, under the implementation of the new policy, it is not a case of two families that the income from land is not as good as before, but a general situation.
The clan nobles who were used to spending lavishly in the past.
Now it is unacceptable to cut back on food and clothing because of the implementation of the new policy.
The worry about the livelihood in the future is not a matter of two families, but the consensus of the entire Beijing nobles.
If they were to be the first wave, they would naturally be worried about the risks that might exist.
But when it became known that more and more people had already claimed their shares, and sent the money to the household department to receive the treasury bonds.
All of them were in a hurry.
First of all, the silver was sent to the household department, that is, it was indeed officially issued by the imperial court.
It's not that the Han prince made it himself.
Although the imperial court is only the imperial court of the old Zhu family in the final analysis.
But judging from various things in the past, no matter what the court does, it also acts in accordance with the decrees of the court.
There will not really be that kind of situation, a sentence that ignores the laws of the entire imperial court.
Second, the instrument of the national debt was returned.
The contents of the agreement are recorded in that document, and there is also the large seal of the imperial court's household department.
This gives them even more confidence.
The most important thing is that a total of 2 million taels of imperial government bonds will be issued this time, and once all this amount is claimed.
Then it's none of their business.
When the servants in the house got the news from everywhere that the so-and-so mansion had gone to claim the treasury with the silver.
It makes these people anxious.
In particular, the condition that the national debt can be withdrawn at any time stimulates the greed in their hearts.
It was early in the morning, but it took an hour.
The 2 million taels of treasury bonds issued by the imperial court were all claimed, although there were still some people who did not have time to transport the cash to the household, but they had already agreed with the king of Han in advance.
It took another half an hour for Zhu Gaoxu, the king of Han, to arrange all the follow-up things with a smile on his face.
He didn't stop at all, so he took the fold of the household department and headed towards the Jiming Temple.
And in the Jiming Temple, although the old man Zhu Di also sent people to investigate and monitor everywhere in the capital, it happened and ended too quickly.
They hadn't had time to send the information they had obtained to the Jiming Temple.
The Han King Zhu Gaoxu, who had completed the old man's errand of raising two million taels of military salaries, had already come to the Jiming Temple.
Relying on the privilege given by the old man, without retribution, Zhu Gaoxu, the king of Han, went straight to the old man's room.
After making an announcement at the door, he walked in.
Looking at the second child who came in a hurry, Zhu Di was wondering what he was doing.
But when he saw the Han King Zhu Gaoxu take out a fold from his arms, and then dedicated it to the old man, he said: "Dad, the two million taels of military salaries you asked your sons to raise, and the sons have all raised them. ”
As the Han King Zhu Gaoxu's words were finished, the old man Zhu Di on the side suddenly showed a shocked gaze.
The original calm expression is gone.
After taking the fold of the household, he carefully checked it until he had read all the contents, and after he saw the seal of the household at the end of the fold.
He finally believed Zhu Gaoxu's words, and also believed that he had really raised a full two million taels of military salaries for the imperial court in just a few days!
Two million taels!
Of course, Zhu Di knows very well that behind this matter, it must be the overall situation planned by Zhu Zhanji's kid.
But even so, he still couldn't calm down.
Why did this uncle and nephew raise two million taels of military salaries with one mouth?
Just relying on the name of his eldest grandson and the king of Han?
Why doesn't his old man's own emperor name work?
Every time I raised military salaries and went around to get money, everyone avoided it.
At this time, the old man Zhu Di was shocked.
Yao Guangxiao, an old monk who has always been cloudy and light-hearted, was already extremely shocked when he heard the words of Zhu Gaoxu, the king of the Han Dynasty.
But after looking at the old emperor Zhu Di's shocked face, he immediately understood that this matter was ..... It's true!
!
These two uncles and nephews really raised two million taels of military salaries without relying on the imperial court to increase taxes!
