Zhu Changluo was obviously moved.

He muttered, "Let Master Ye enter the cabinet as soon as possible to discuss this matter", and the sentence that followed him was already considering the practical level.

"If Datong and Dengzhou set up Saiwang camps like Taizu did, how much would it cost per year?"

Zheng Haizhu has long been prepared for the question of the Son of Heaven.

She then said eloquently: "The ministers trained those Liao people who fled back in Chongming, Nanzhili, which can be used as a reference. Chongming's area is also just starting, and the posts have not yet been filled, and now in addition to the reserve soldiers who farm, there are about 1,000 Dingkou who are trained as soldiers. For these people, the silver for the food ration was eight hundred taels a month, and ten thousand a year. The battalion was divided into infantry and sailors, each with a killer team that used iron blades, and a god machine team that used firearms.

The sword equipment plus the combination of guns, arquebuses, small cannons, etc., the minister spent another 10,000 taels. There are four sets of winter and summer clothes, even if there is no shortage of cotton and weaving cloth like Nanzhili, each person has to be counted as five taels of silver, so it is five thousand. In the end, with the addition of infantry cars and sailors' boats, it would be several thousand larger. Therefore, at the beginning of Chongming's military training, the minister was emptied of his money bag by this expense, and asked Yan Xuanfu, a fellow countryman in Taiwan, to borrow 5,000 taels. Your Majesty, it is true that training and raising soldiers costs money like running water, otherwise why would the minister come to the capital in a hurry to open a business, thinking of making more money? The military salary allocated by the imperial court to the ministers, it is not enough. ”

After listening to this, Zhu Changluo couldn't help but be speechless.

A battalion of 1,000 people, just like that!

Not to mention that if there is a real war, they will also be given food and rewards.

"Let me calculate, the Lu Fan camp in Dengzhou should be similar to your Chongming Beiwei battalion, the infantry and water division, the first year is thirty or forty thousand. In the Dai Domain camp of Datong, the sailors were replaced by cavalry, and the horses should be more expensive than the boats. In this way, these two places are just to try first, and you have to explain 100,000 taels first? Can the household be willing? ”

Zhu Changluo calculated seriously, and the embarrassed expression on his face was even more real.

This middle-aged son of heaven is not as slamming as his father Wanli, and he is a new monarch who ascends the throne, and he listens to the words of the courtiers.

It's just that the internal money also has to bear the huge annual expenses in the Forbidden City......

Therefore, Zhu Changluo could not care about comparing himself with the woman in front of him at the moment, and directly counted the accounts to the head of the household, and refused to take out the money in his pocket again.

Of course, Zheng Haizhu understands that at the beginning of the new deal, there must be a better "ATM", and Zhu Changluo must not have the bad experience of "letting me pay for everything".

"Your Majesty, the number of 100,000 is very different, but it may not be necessary for the household department to come out."

"Who's going to go?"

"The minister can dare to speak out, and ask King Fu to give this silver to atone for his mother's sins."

……

Half an hour later, Cao Huachun led Zheng Haizhu out of Xinuan Pavilion.

After walking dozens of steps, Cao Huachun couldn't hold back any longer, laughed loudly, and gave Zheng Haizhu a thumbs up with his eyes: "I really know how to come up with ideas." ”

Zheng Haizhu took a breath of cold air and said in a low voice: "Maybe Long Live Lord thinks the same in his heart." It's all clans, look at King Lu! This time, even if there is no matter of Zheng Guifei being bitten by Li Kezhuo, shouldn't there be more Fu Wang, who came to the domain with millions of assets back then and is now even richer? ”

Cao Huachun echoed with a clear refreshment: "Yes!" should get back the account of the mother and son who bullied the East Palace. ”

As he was talking, he looked up and saw the attendant walking towards him, followed by three or four small firefighters holding charcoal baskets.

"Yo, Wei Sizheng, how did you come to deliver charcoal in person?" Cao Huachun's smile did not decrease, and his tone was a little teasing.

Wei Zhongxian, who is still called "Wei Jinzhong" at the moment, was full of humility and bowed: "Mrs. Zheng is healthy, Cao Gonggong is healthy, although the little one is still working as an errand in the salary department, he has been removed from the position of Si Zheng." ”

"Huh?" Cao Huachun had already received instructions from Wang An and Zheng Haizhu in advance, and he pretended to be surprised at this time and aimed at Zheng Haizhu.

Zheng Haizhu smiled in his heart and praised the sentence "Since ancient times, fathers-in-law have all been drama bones", and his eyes changed to the same surprise as Cao Huachun: "Didn't I tell the princess, I didn't think that the turmoil that Mama Ke had in Wenhua Hall had anything to do with this father-in-law Wei." Not to mention Cui Wenjing who patrolled the camp. ”

said, looking at Wei Zhongxian: "When I entered Beijing, the first thing I met was Father-in-law Wei, who had seen his father-in-law's demeanor at the Tongxian Wharf, and he could see it clearly, you and Cui Wenjing could not nod their heads." ”

When Wei Zhongxian heard this, his face was full of emotion, and he also mixed a faint bitterness on the corner of his mouth.

But he didn't make a big fuss about the grievances, but bowed his body like a small cocoon.

But it did not prevent him from turning around flexibly, took a brocade-wrapped hand warmer from the hand of the little fireman, and presented it to Zheng Haizhu: "Madame is now more important than the Nehans, and she will definitely come to the palace to play often." It's so cold, all the way, the courtyard is waiting for the edict, but don't freeze Mrs. The small one deliberately found a clever coppersmith in Beijing and made this stove. The charcoal in it is also particular, and the small ones are specially chiseled, and they are sent back to Mrs. to manage enough. ”

Zheng Haizhu took the stove and rubbed it a few times, it was indeed warm and ironed.

"Father-in-law Wei has a heart," Zheng Haizhu picked up the stove, and saw that Wei Zhongxian had no intention of moving, so he took the initiative to ask, "Father-in-law, does he have something to say to me?" ”

Wei Zhongxian raised his head and looked at Cao Huachun.

Cao Huachun waved his hand generously: "Our brother doesn't have to be polite, come, these children of yours, follow me to the warm pavilion to put charcoal, and you send your wife out of Donghua Gate." ”

……

In the near winter, even if it is not at noon, there is no heating.

Zheng Haizhu stared at the two almost normally tall figures moving slowly on the blue brick floor, and said kindly: "Gonggong Wei, you don't have to bend up, you also have a head and face in this Forbidden City, it's not appropriate to call the fire signers to look at it." ”

Wei Zhongxian accompanied him and said carefully: "We are like this, not all the heads and faces are rewarded by the elders of the Long Live Lord and the Master of Ceremonies. Mama Ke is not sensible, she offended Madame, annoyed the Lord of Long Live and the Five Princes, but as soon as she left, the princess would not be angry with me. ”

When Zheng Haizhu heard this, he stopped, frowned slightly, and stared at Wei Zhongxian: "Which prince?" Wang An's father-in-law? Take your anger out? How can it be, I still heard the prince praise you for your dedication in front of the Long Live Lord, whether it is in the Jiazi library or the salary department, you have never made a mistake, and you have not delayed serving the eldest son of the emperor. ”

Wei Zhongxian turned in surprise: "Did the prince really say that?" ”

Zheng Haizhu said: "What did I do to you, just to thank you for sending me a hand warmer?" ”

Wei Zhongxian was stunned and couldn't answer for a while.

Zheng Haizhu put on a look of being quite interested in talking about this topic, and said: "If Father-in-law Wei wants to argue with me today, or ask for mercy for your vegetable lady, I will agree." I am full of things all day long, and I have no time to remember these little festivals. But if you misunderstand the prince, then you shouldn't. ”

Wei Zhongxian nodded, and couldn't help but wonder in his heart, the fat person who wore small shoes for himself and wiped the salary of Si Zheng may not be Wang An, after all, today, it was Wang An's godson Cao Huachun who told him that Zheng Haizhu would come to Xinuan Pavilion, and it was Wang An's godson Cao Huachun who told him to come to Fu Low and be small and climb to make friends.

Just thinking about it, I heard the unwavering female voice sound again: "No, the celebrant is still Lu Shou now, but Bingbi, there are two princes, right?" Is the other one called Wang Tiqian? ”

Wei Zhongxian is a spirit.

Wang Tiqian...... A good brother who pulls fiber for himself and Ke's media.

He only heard the rumors from the celebrant that it was Wang Gonggong who relieved him of his position, so he took it for granted that it must be Wang An.

Zheng Haizhu smiled faintly, and said bluntly: "The prince has been protecting the long-lived lord for decades, and Lu Shou went home to retire, and the palm print of the master of ceremonies is naturally his." No one dares to yin him, and he can't be yin. Father-in-law Wei, you are different, you are so capable, and the eldest son of the emperor likes you, but you haven't read the inner study, and you can't enter the celebrant supervisor. Some people are afraid that you are getting more and more prominent, and it is difficult for the celebrant to come up with ideas to rectify you? ”

Wei Zhongxian listened silently, and the doubts in his heart had already burned.

The woman beside her put on a tone of extinguishing the fire and relieving the matter: "It's okay, it's okay, Gonggong Wei is not afraid of crooked shadows, just do his best to be an errand for the Lord of Long Life, besides, the errand of the Son of Heaven is only in this Forbidden City, and the work sent outside may be better." My father-in-law is sincere today, so I will also say a few words to my father-in-law, and if I have any errand to go out of Beijing for me, I will also recommend my father-in-law. ”

Wei Zhongxian heard Zheng Haizhu say that he was fatter, and it seemed that a string had been plucked in his mind, and he hurriedly said, "I am willing to help Mrs. ”

Zheng Haizhu nodded, then shook his head and sighed: "Actually, I can't avoid being calculated by the villain and sympathizing with each other, so I will nag you a few words." ”

Wei Zhongxian's eyes immediately lit up, and he said solemnly: "Which unsightly thief dares to calculate his wife?" ”

Zheng Haizhu said: "When I went back to the Wenhua Hall to speak, I was intercepted by the imperial history of Kedao and scolded him in black and white. This matter is not a secret, father-in-law, have you forgotten? ”

Wei Zhongxian was suddenly angry and said, "That Hu Keyan official? What's it called? Hey, it would be good if our family led the East Factory, it was not a piece of cake to do him, in the East Factory, there were more tricks that made life worse than death, but there were more than Beizhen Fusi. ”

Zheng Haizhu immediately bluffed his face: "These words came out of your mouth and into my ears, so stop here." The official of the imperial court, not a bandit and a poor man, will be arrested when he says he will be caught? Turning back, more civil officials are going to spit on you in front of the palace. Gonggong Wei, I'm not teaching you, I'm just reminding you that to govern Wenchen, you have to have a dignified reason for impeachment. ”

Zheng Haizhu continued to walk in the direction of Donghua Gate, walked a few steps and told Wei Zhongxian: "You are not allowed to find a thug on the street to beat that household branch to Ding Yun." He is Yao Zongwen's person, and he is the person of Fang Ge Lao. The old man of the Fang Pavilion is about to pay tribute, and Yao Zongwen is still jumping. This person should not be underestimated, from Ningbo to Susong has some foundations, otherwise, his brother dared to rectify me in Chongming at the beginning? ”

Wei Zhongxian said in his heart, Auntie, I don't remember that person's name is Ding Yun, but you explain it to me word by word.

There are no three hundred taels of silver here.

Clearly let me submit a petition?
