Daming is an official in a different place, not only has to endure loneliness, but also has a lot of things to do.

The drawbacks in Zhu Ying's mouth are basically facts.

If it weren't for this, Wu Lin would also be regarded as a scholarly family, and she would have a bit of a family background, so she had come to this point all the way to where she is today.

But after all, he is old, and he has long felt that his health is getting worse, so he can only take over his family, and he will take care of him to some extent, as for the servant, he can't afford to hire it.

But Wu Lin's hometown is in the Huguang area, and he moved to Yingtianfu to live, which made the already not wealthy family stretched thin in an instant.

There was really no way, Wu Lin had to reclaim the original few vacant lands for farming.

"Okay, okay, no more talk, let's go back and think about it."

Zhu Yuanzhang interrupted Wu Lin's words with a sigh.

Wu Lin is considered a big official even before the first assistant of the cabinet, and Yu Lu is actually not a few.

Even people of this level are living in such a tight situation, others can imagine it.

After returning to the palace, Zhu Yuanzhang immediately asked people to take the files of officials from various places, and frowned carefully.

I don't know if I don't see this, and I was shocked when I saw it.

Nine out of ten of these officials are scapegoators.

Could it be that what the little bunny said is true?

Are we really too picky?

Although our Daming has not been established for a long time, it has been more than ten years?

The remnants of the Northern Yuan have not yet been cleaned up, and the army of the Nine Sides is also a huge number.

Even in the coastal areas, the remnants of Zhang Shicheng are colluding with the Japanese invaders, and the sailors are also a huge expense.

Those toasts in the southwest did not obey discipline at all, not only to give some sweetness, but also to send people to beat from time to time.

There are many places in the country that are building water conservancy projects to help those disaster victims and refugees, and there are countless places where the whole country needs to spend money.

The treasury is almost at the bottom!

Even if we want to give them more money, we have to take it out!

If we had silver, we would have renovated the walls of Jinling a long time ago!

I'm afraid we're the poorest emperor in history!

Poor!

Poor jingle bell!

"Juhachi, what are you sighing about?"

Just when Zhu Yuanzhang sighed, Queen Ma didn't know when she walked in.

"Sister Xiuying, our Daming is really too poor!"

Zhu Yuanzhang sighed while relaying Zhu Ying's words to Queen Ma.

"That's it!"

Only then did Queen Ma understand why Zhu Yuanzhang sighed.

Empress Ma followed Zhu Yuanzhang from the troubled times at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, and naturally knew how important silver was, not to mention an emperor, it was just an ordinary, and she couldn't live without silver.

"Chongba, you don't have to sigh, I know a person who has the resources to help us build the city wall of Jinling, this person is called Shen Wansan, you should also know, right?"

"You weren't very happy when he came up with the idea, so I didn't say much."

"But in my opinion, since Shen Wansan has this heart, it is better to satisfy him, and the court can have a lot of expenses left, so why not do it?"

Queen Ma smiled and persuaded.

Zhu Yuanzhang chose Jinling as the important place of the Beijing Division, and Jinling was the face of the Ming Dynasty.

After nearly a hundred years of rule by the Yuan Dynasty, after the end of the troubled times, the city wall, which was originally quite majestic, was already dilapidated at this time.

Zhu Yuanzhang has been building it for a long time, but he is shy in his pocket.

After Shen Wansan found out, he immediately said that he was willing to pay for the construction and bear half of the cost.

But in the Ming Dynasty, the social status of merchants was the lowest, and businessmen who did not enter the stream actually wanted to participate in the projects of the imperial court, which was known to the world.

Even Queen Ma heard about it.

Now seeing that Zhu Yuanzhang was distressed that the treasury had no silver, Queen Ma immediately thought of Shen Wansan.

"Shen Wansan?"

"How's that going to work?"

"Let a nasty businessman build a city wall for the imperial court, if the world knows about this, what face will our Ming Dynasty have?"

"No way!"

Unexpectedly, Zhu Yuanzhang didn't think about it, and directly vetoed it.

Zhu Yuanzhang's talent naturally goes without saying, among the emperors of all dynasties, Zhu Yuanzhang is the top three even if he is not the first.

But an existence as powerful as Zhu Yuanzhang also has a big but obvious shortcoming, that is, Zhu Yuanzhang is very face-saving.

asked him to find Shen Wansan to receive money to build the city wall of Jinling, he would rather not repair it.

"Since you don't agree, but the treasury is tight, what should you do?"

Queen Ma also sighed.

Seeing that Queen Ma sighed, Zhu Yuanzhang hurriedly squeezed out a smile that was more ugly than crying.

"By the way, Chongba, Zhu Ying's kid has a flexible brain, he should have a way, why don't you go to him and ask? He should be able to figure out a way, right? ”

Seeing that Zhu Yuanzhang had nothing to do, Queen Ma's eyes lit up and she said suddenly.

"That kid is smart, but his mind is not in serving the court at all, today we rewarded him with a gold medal for acting cheaply, he is not very happy, look for him in this matter, is he willing to help us?"

Zhu Yuanzhang grinned, and even thought, or a showdown now!

Don't pretend, I'm your grandfather!

Don't pretend, your grandfather, I'm Zhu Yuanzhang!

"You are just worrying too much, Zhu Ying's kid is a knife mouth and tofu heart, if you have something to find him, he will not stand idly by, not to mention that even if he is not willing to help you, you can't miss a hair if you try, right?"

"Good!"

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded and stood up: "Let's go find that little rabbit cub, if he dares not to help us, we will tie him up to the palace!" ”

......

Early the next morning, Zhu Yuanzhang only brought two people, one Lan Yu, as a bodyguard, and one Liu Bowen, as a military advisor, and went directly to Zhu Ying's manor.

As soon as I entered, I saw Zhu Ying, who was covered in ashes, holding a hoe in his hand, stirring a pile of gray mud.

"Boy, what are you doing here? How old are you and still playing with mud? ”

Looking at Zhu Ying, who was covered in ashes, Zhu Yuanzhang sneered with a puzzled expression.

"What are you doing? Do you still have a smile on your face? If it weren't for you bad old men, wouldn't this son be so tired and tired? Zhu Ying rolled her eyes.

After Zhu Yuanzhang and the others left, the more Zhu Ying thought about it, the more he felt that things were beyond his control.

The laws of the Ming Dynasty are clearly written, but if the amount of embezzlement is more than sixty taels of silver, it will be plucked from the skin and daylily, and then hung on the wall for you to dry.

The things that these people sent yesterday are more than hundreds of sixty taels!

Where did all this silver come from, Zhu Ying couldn't figure it out, but such a huge amount, once Emperor Hongwu knew about it, it would be lucky to dry it on the wall!

I'm afraid I have to have a one-way ticket for a one-day trip to the Nine Clans!

Originally, he was alone, just an ordinary person, but the old man didn't know which tendon was wrong, so he went to ask for a bullshit gold medal for this son!

No matter how you say it, you can be regarded as a person of half the court.

When the time comes, I am afraid that I will not be able to get out of the relationship.
