Chapter 139: Here comes the money!

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is poor and crazy???

In just a few days, the Ming Jinyi Guard and the Ying Tianfu officials swept 56 temples in the capital, except for the Huguo Temple and other boundaries, none of them could dodge.

"These bald people are really rich." Wang Siqi sat next to Ji Gang and silently looked at the list of houses obtained from the fifty-six temples in Ji Gang's hand.

Ji Gang is also in a trance, and he has really not stopped for a day in the past few days.

No one knows why His Royal Highness the Crown Prince suddenly wants to take action against all the temples in the entire capital.

Arrest someone? Do not catch.. Don't catch any of them..

Raiding the house? Do not copy.. How can anyone copy the temple?

It stands to reason that...

If you don't do anything, how can you use Jinyiwei?..

Ji Gang didn't understand, but after Zhu Di and Zhu Gaochi talked late in the middle of the night, he heard Zhu Di's words: "Change clothes, don't let people know.."

... Ji Gang understood it at that time.

...

Not every temple has money, not every monk has money, but Wang Siqi knows that these temples around the capital are richer than the other.

It's not just the statues that shine with gold, but also the temple's vault.

When the door of the silver vault was pried open, the copper coins inside were directly inclined down like a flash flood, and the hemp rope that tied the money was broken because of the long-term shelf...

The silver vaults were opened one by one, and the carriages were running one by one.

I don't know how many times it was transported, but I don't know how many people it took and how much time it took just to rearrange the gold and silver and re-string the copper coins.

"Shocking..."

The wealth that these monks are sitting on makes Rao is Ji Gang, who has also seen strong winds and waves on weekdays, can't help but be stunned, and can't help but be speechless, it has been rumored that these abbot masters in the Daming Temple are not as simple as they seem on the surface, and after this time Ji Gang thoroughly understood the deep meaning behind this sentence.

The incense money on weekdays seems to be a lot of income, but it is nothing compared to other businesses in various temples.

Bad luck?

You have to ask for one of the magic vessels that have been opened, go home... The presiding monk who has opened the light to receive you a thousand taels of silver is not expensive, right? After the magic weapon is brought home, it is not easy to use, then it means that the evil spirit in the family has not been eliminated, at this time, it is not expensive to charge you 10,000 taels of silver to your house to do a special ritual for you, right?

There are so many rich people in the capital, so there is no need to say much about the business in the temple, but it is not good.

If it was just that, Zhu Gaochi would not even agree with Wang Siqi's idea, and chose to risk the world's uproar and attack the temples near the capital.

The most important thing is that these bald people really don't have any money that they dare not make.

Lending usury, annexing land, and fooling the people into throwing their wealth into the temple to accumulate good fortune, one by one, I don't know how many people have suffered greatly, and I don't know how many people have embarked on the road of no return.

This made Zhu Gaochi furious after hearing what Wang Siqi said.

"This time, don't say that the imperial court wants to go north once, even if the emperor wants to go on a expedition for a year, I'm afraid it's enough!" Looking at the accounts recorded, the cash alone, that is, gold, silver, and copper coins, added together, was more than 10 million taels of silver.

But that's just the tip of the iceberg.

Most of the main income of these temples is used to buy properties near the capital, and there are many bald people who work as hosts in the temples on weekdays, but when they want to go out and live happily, they change into a set of clothes and become businessmen with thousands of dollars in their pockets.

Lingering on the banks of the Qinhuai River, the love is in the red dust.

.....

In the palace, Zhu Di looked coldly at the Daoyan monk on the side.

Although Monk Daoyan knew that Zhu Di had great anger in his heart at the moment, he still opened his mouth to explain against Zhu Di's anger: "Your Majesty... This matter also asked the emperor to raise and fall, money and wealth are mundane things, and the monks should naturally not be nostalgic for it, but also ask the emperor to protect those temples. ”

The black-clothed monk has a very strong and magical color in history, not only in the wild history of the market, but also in the local chronicles of many places, there are many legends remaining.

It can be said that Zhu Di went from Beiping to the capital.

Behind the scenes, it is inseparable from the monk Daoyan to give advice behind his back, and Zhu Di's feelings for him are equally complicated, and after a while, he slowly said: "I have never said that I will kill them all, but this matter is not just what I mean, do you understand?" ”

"And. Never blind my eyes, for there are my eyes everywhere in the world! ”

When these words reached the ears of Monk Daoyan, he couldn't help but snort... Zhu Di is not the original Zhu Di, this time the incident made Dao Yan really look down on the Zhu Di of the past, but the emperor of the Ming Dynasty.

Dao Yan didn't say anything, just nodded silently and turned to leave.

A moment later.

Behind the screen not far away, Zhu Gaochi walked out with a snort, looked at Zhu Di and said, "Dad, this time the Northern Expedition must be not short of silver... I don't know if we can reduce some private agricultural taxes.."

"No.."

This time, Xu Rulin is as fast as the wind.

Even Zhu Di didn't react, Ji Gang had already done everything... Those high-ranking monks and hosts who are high on weekdays are no different from quails who are cowardly in front of Jinyiwei's steel sword.

"Daddy... Isn't the silver of the Northern Expedition enough? ”

Zhu Di's face couldn't see joy and sorrow, but looking at Zhu Gaochi's eyes, there was already a little more softness, and he only heard him say leisurely: "This time the matter is still what Wang Siqi thought of!" That kid .. There are so many ideas all day long, but they are all ideas that come in for money. ”

"Yes.. It was indeed Wang Siqi's idea for his son, asking his son to investigate these temples entrenched near the capital, and it didn't matter if the result was not checked, a check... Shocking. ”

"It's time to take care of those bald people."

"If you don't teach a lesson, I really think that this world is guarded by me for them."

Zhu Di spoke quickly, but in the final analysis, it was also the true thought in his heart, after all, the treatment given to these monks by the imperial court was not unfavorable.

Not only do you not need to be conscripted, but you also don't need to be conscripted, and you don't even have to pay taxes.

Those who belong to the temple property are exempt from agricultural tax, even if the money earned in the temple is left, it is left in the temple, and now the court is short of money and takes out money from these bald people according to Wang Siqi's method, which is not bad in Zhu Di's eyes.

And Zhu Gaochi also has the same idea as Zhu Di, even if anyone hears the name of the prince on weekdays, he has to praise him for being kind-hearted, but this does not mean that Zhu Gaochi can accept that these bald people can make a windfall through the current Taiping world.
