"There are very few silver coins and items in this batch of tributes that can really be used as disaster relief funds, and they can't fill the big hole in Pingxing at all.

"Even if you take it all out, I'm afraid..."The Tobe waiter secretly calculated in his heart, "I'm afraid there will be a gap of 50,000 taels of silver..."

fifty thousand taels of silver.

It's not too much, but it's not too little.

If such a sum of money is forcibly taken by the household, they can also take it, but if they forcibly take the money that has been planned how to spend it, there will be problems in the operation of other aspects of Dajing.

For example, the next official salary may not be issued. Another example is that the portion of the offering that the clan should have received is not available. Or maybe some of the money that should be used for basic operations and hospitality is gone.

In short, the money that has been planned cannot be misappropriated at will.

If you don't get one right, things get trickier.

After thinking about it, Yan Chujing turned to ask: "Then how many silver taels of materials can your household department raise for disaster relief right now?" I want the kind that can be sent away with the team early in the morning. ”

"This..."The Tobe waiter pondered for a long time before gritting his teeth and saying, "Even if you tighten your belt, you will have a maximum of 50,000 taels of silver, and a maximum of 10,000 quintals of grain and grass..."

Hearing this, Yan Chujing couldn't help frowning slightly.

Fifty thousand taels of silver is okay, although it is not enough for disaster relief, but it will be sent to Pingxing immediately as the first batch of disaster relief funds to purchase materials, which can still solve the urgent need.

Just this 10,000 loads of grain... For the victims of the disaster in three whole states, it is a bit stretched... Even if you boil gruel, I'm afraid it can only last for half a month.

But there's no way around it.

The largest granary in Dajing is actually not in Kyoto, but in Jiangnan.

The terrain of Jiangnan is flat and open, with four distinct seasons, which is convenient for planting.

Around Kyoto, where the capital is located, a large granary was built to store grain and supply it to the north, but it was still difficult to send grain to the north.

Moreover, Kyoto is the foundation of the Great Jing, and the grain stored here cannot be sent away all at once.

If there is no food here, some people will take advantage of the situation and add to the chaos, I am afraid that there will be big problems.

Yan Chujing thought for a long time before he spoke: "Fifty thousand taels of silver, you personally watch the people and get ready, and send them to Pingxing with the team early tomorrow morning." As for the food, 10,000 quintals will be sent with the team first, and then I will give you another three days, and then raise 5,000 quintals, and send the second batch. ”

"But..."Tobe was embarrassed.

Even if he gave three more days, he wouldn't be able to get 5,000 loads of food!

Food doesn't come out of nowhere, three days... Even if he begs from house to house, he won't come with 5,000 loads!

But Yan Chujing's mind has been decided, and the "but" of the household servant can only be swallowed silently.

In order to plug the mouth of the household department, Yan Chujing even took the lead and said: "Since Dajing is in trouble and the people are suffering, then I can't indulge in peace." The allocation for the Mid-Autumn Festival Palace banquet was halved, and everything was done simply.

"There is also the food and clothing of me and the palace concubines, all of which are lowered.

"The silver saved will be handed over to the household department to buy food and materials and send them to Pingxing for disaster relief."

The emperor has said this to this point, where can the household department refute it? No matter how bitter your heart is, you can only stubbornly lead the order.

For the time being, there is a preliminary solution to the flood, and the DPRK will continue.

Although the matter has passed, the atmosphere has changed. Everyone heard it clearly and understood that Pingxing Mansion was seriously flooded and needed the help of the imperial court, but the imperial court now has no money!
