0925 clearance
Everyone was stunned when they heard this! Just now it was called Wu Ninghou, why is it called Liu Aiqing at this time? Could it be that there is something crucial written in this document?
I only heard Liu Haojia say loudly: "Back to the Queen Mother, the minister's words are true, and you can guarantee it with your life!"
Empress Dowager Li was silent for a moment and then said, "If that's the case, Liu Aiqing, you are not only not good, but you have merit!" Alright, get up!"
When Emperor Wanli saw that Empress Dowager Li had obviously changed her mind, he immediately became anxious! He immediately said, "Queen Mother, that night pearl may not be as dangerous as he said! It can't be said that those few people are not blessed enough. So it's safe to send it to me! I am the Son of Heaven, the most blessed man in the world!"
When Empress Dowager Li heard this, she immediately sank her face and said, "Long live Lord Jing nonsense! How can this kind of thing be risky? And you didn't read this document to make it clear, not only the person who bought the night pearl died, but also the family members also had a bad death! Do you want this palace to be littered with corpses?"
Emperor Wanli was obviously a little unwilling, and wanted to say a few more words, but was pressed back by the Empress Dowager Li! Empress Dowager Li didn't look like a queen mother at all at this time, but like an old mother who was worried about her son, she counted Emperor Wanli up and down! also forced him to promise not to track down the whereabouts of the Night Pearl!
In the end, Empress Dowager Li said with a fierce look in her eyes: "Spread the word of the mourning family, if anyone tells the whereabouts of the night pearl in the future, the mourning family will kill his whole family!"
At this point, Liu Haojia finally breathed a sigh of relief! And he is quite grateful to Empress Dowager Li for this performance! Because Liu Haojia wrote things clearly in his letter to the Empress Dowager Li, the Empress Dowager Li already knew the consequences of the Night Pearl!
The reason why she acted as if she didn't know made a scene. I just don't want to have a dislike between my son and Liu Haojia and other courtiers! After all, Liu Haojia and Zhang Jia have done a good job in the past few years, and they have brought a lot of benefits to the royal family, and they always have to help when they can.
Wait until the Empress Dowager Li finally finished nagging. He also told Emperor Wanli to let them go before leaving. Emperor Wanli, who was not interested, returned to the dormitory and asked Liu Haojia to tell the story of this errand.
Liu Haojia intended to sell well, so naturally he told the story very excitingly, so that Emperor Wanli could listen to it completely! Finally, I finally came out of the regret of not being able to get the Night Pearl.
After listening to the narration, Emperor Wanli knew that most of the antiques and treasures had to be sold, so he patted the table and said, "It's a pity that so many rare treasures are cheaper for these people for nothing!"
Liu Haojia said, "Long live the lord, in fact, this is not a pity! After all, these things were all obtained by raiding the family, and after selling them to them, the court had the silver, and it could do more things that benefited the country and the people. With more silver in the inner treasury, you and the Queen Mother will have a lighter life!"
Emperor Wanli nodded and said, "That's right! This time, the court can finally be more relaxed! I'll have to keep an eye on Mr. Zhang to see if he's really spending all this money where it should be?"
Prior to this, Emperor Wanli and Zhang Juzheng had an agreement. The bulk of this money must be given to the treasury, and it must be put to good use. It is mainly used to maintain the country's roads, water conservancy and military equipment. Liu Haojia wanted to take this opportunity to suggest that the people should be paid when building water conservancy this time, but Emperor Wanli casually agreed, but Zhang Juzheng sternly refused!
Liu Haojia did this to tear a hole in the conscription! As long as you give money this time, you will have to pay some money the next time you are conscripted. After a long time, the rule of free conscription will slowly collapse and be gradually replaced by the employment system, and the people will have more income!
But Zhang Juzheng directly rejected this idea with foresight! He made it clear that this case is resolutely unopenable, and if it is opened, there will be endless troubles! Because this time the court has money to give money to the people, and if there is no money in the future, won't those people stop working? So Liu Haojia's idea was completely bankrupt!
However, this did not prevent Liu Haojia from benefiting from the other direction, he said directly: "Long live Lord, Xia Na's first sum of money has already entered the treasury, you should discuss with Mr. Zhang as soon as possible, how to spend the money as soon as possible!"
Emperor Wanli smiled and said, "You don't have to worry about this! In the matter of spending money, civil and military officials are more concerned than me! They had already made a lot of plans and reported for duty
I'm here I am!"
Liu Haojia finally breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this! What he is most worried about now is that the imperial court and Emperor Wanli will not let go of the silver, and all of it will be stuffed into the treasury and the inner treasury! And they can do it!
Emperor Wanli doesn't understand the economy at all, although Zhang Juzheng understands, but he doesn't understand it as thoroughly as Liu Haojia! Liu Haojia pushed the money to be spent as soon as possible, just to make the market more active!
If nothing else, this silver is put into the market, and with the current production capacity, it is easy to stir up ten times the flow of funds! If it is in modern times, I am afraid that a hundred times a thousand times can be stirred! But now that Liu Haojia is the head of the largest business group, of course he hopes that the more active the market is, the better, so that he can earn more money!
At this moment, he walked in directly from outside the door and said loudly, "Long live Lord, the things sent by Wu Ninghou have been counted, do you want to take a look for yourself?"
Emperor Wanli was overjoyed when he heard this, and said loudly, "Naturally, I want to see it! Send it in and let me see what's in store!"
As soon as Zhang Jia waved his hand, there were eunuchs outside who walked into the study with boxes of different sizes, and the study was full in the blink of an eye! Then Zhang Jia opened the box in turn, took out the treasures in it and put them on the table of Emperor Wanli for him to admire, and explained the origin of the things according to the appraisal certificate in the box!
These things are all fine products specially selected by Liu Haojia among the confiscated items, and they are all priceless! In particular, he knows Emperor Wanli's preferences, and his selection of things is even more targeted, so every piece is very in line with Emperor Wanli's wishes, and he can see that he is full of energy and can't put it down!
Emperor Wanli slowly admired it, and distributed it by the way. There were a few good things that he gave to the Empress Dowager Li by name, and a few more to the harem concubines, and left some in his own study and bedroom! And the rest will be sent to the inner treasury, so that they may be rewarded to their courtiers in the future.
Just when there were still six or seven boxes left, a eunuch came in and said a few words to Zhang Jia, and his face immediately became gloomy after hearing this! Even the green tendons in the corners of the forehead jumped up and grew tall! However, in order not to disturb Emperor Wanli's interest, he casually sent the eunuch out!
