Chapter 14 You People Still Have the Face to Say You're a Qing Official?
"What did you say?"
"Your Majesty went to Lingyin Building today, not only did you seize the Oiran, but you also want to open the Qinglou yourself?"
Yuan Fu,
Hearing the report of the next person,
Yuan Kang immediately thought that his ears had heard it wrong.
The main thing is this, it's ridiculous.
The dignified king of a country actually went to the Qinglou to forcibly occupy the Oiran.
He even had to run his own business, opening a green house and a casino.
If such things were to be spread, wouldn't it make other countries laugh out loud with their teeth?
Shinong Industry and Commerce.
The status of businessmen is almost at the bottom of society.
Almost every country is promoting agriculture and suppressing commerce.
Among them, the Qin State is the worst.
Since Emperor Qin Xiao changed the law, the people of the entire Qin State can only have two occupations.
One is a farmer, who plows the land at home.
The other is a soldier, who fights for the country.
The whole country has become a war machine.
All the people of Qin must give everything for the operation of this machine.
This is also the reason why the Qin State can become strong.
Now
Countries have followed suit.
Yuan Kang never expected that his emperor would not think about the government and indulge in beauty, and now it is ridiculous to the point that he opened a green building.
"Looks like I'm overthinking ahead."
"This little emperor is just an ignorant child who is greedy for pleasure."
"But that's okay, the more mediocre you are, the more benefits my Yuan family will get, and when the Yuan family completely controls the court, it may not be able to get their hands on the throne of the Ninety-Five in the future."
Yuan Kang stood with his hands in his hands, standing in front of the window and looking in the direction of the palace, a sneer flashing at the corner of his mouth.
That night.
The farce of Lingyin Lou ended with Han Lin's departure.
As for Liu Shishi, she was naturally brought into the palace by Han Lin.
After going back, Han Lin sent Gonggong Wei to convey an order, tomorrow morning!
.......
"See Your Majesty, long live my emperor, long live, long live!"
"Flat."
With the completion of the civil and military officials,
Han Lin said lightly: "Ladies and gentlemen, I plan to establish ten entertainment venues in the city, including green buildings, casinos, bathing centers, dance halls, and so on. ”
"The specific plan has been told to the head of the household, if it is completed, it will be a source of money, and the preliminary estimate is that it will cost about 250,000 taels of silver, of which 50,000 will be paid, and the remaining 200,000 will be calculated by yourself, and each family will make up a little."
"Don't think I'm grabbing money, my purpose is to make money together, and I will never let you Aiqing suffer."
As Han Lin's voice fell,
The entire hall was silent, and the pins could be heard.
Many of these ministers already knew what Han Lin had done yesterday.
For example, go up to the green building and grab the oiran.
Plans to open brothels, casinos, and more.
But they really didn't expect that His Majesty wanted to open this thing and actually asked them to take money.
Isn't it your own life to let yourself pay for your money?
Time
Many ministers bowed their heads silently.
See this scene.
Han Lin smiled.
Don't you think he knows how much money these people have?
Last night, Jin Yiwei put the results of the investigation in front of him.
The moment Han Lin saw the result, he was directly laughed at angrily.
One by one is really just as he thought, it is completely a copy of the ministers of the late Ming Dynasty.
No matter how much they ask for money to raise their salaries, none of them will come out.
Crying and shouting, saying how poor his family is.
As a result,
When Li Zicheng entered the city, he directly copied out more than 70 million taels of silver.
The annual tax of the Ming Dynasty was only four million taels, so you can imagine how much those people embezzled.
It's not,
Before Han Lin could say a few words, many ministers had already begun to cry poor.
"Your Majesty, it's not that the ministers are unwilling to contribute, it's really powerless."
"Your Majesty, Weichen's monthly income is only 120 taels of silver, but there are more than 80 people in the family, and there is no balance at all."
"Yes, Your Majesty, the ministers are all honest officials, and they really can't take out the extra silver taels."
"There are many family members of Weichen, and there are many servants, and now they are tight on food and clothing every day, but since Your Majesty has spoken, Weichen is willing to contribute 20 taels of silver to support Your Majesty."
"Your Majesty, the minister is willing to contribute 30 taels of silver, which is already all the property of Weichen."
The ministers in the palace had a handful of snot and tears, crying there about how difficult it was for them.
In short, one is poorer than the other.
is like the acting skills of the actors, and those who don't know really think that they are all Qing officials with clean sleeves.
Han Lin sat on the dragon chair,
Watching them perform for a long time.
Finally, he said indifferently: "20 taels? 30 taels? Zhong Aiqing is really good acting skills, should I award you a little golden man? ”
"Since all Aiqing say that they are honest and officials, then I will let Jinyiwei go to your Aiqing's homes to see if everything is true."
"If it is really as you Aiqing said, all the income will be tripled in the future, but if the family property found out exceeds the monthly income, then don't blame me for being polite."
Quiet!
As Han Lin's words fell,
The hall, which was still crying and shouting just now, was extremely silent in an instant.
All the officials were dumbfounded.
They never thought that Han Lin would be able to make such a play.
What bullshit clean officials, they all know in their hearts how many assets they have in their families.
There are hundreds of people in the entire court, and only a few can stand up to investigation.
If you really let Jinyiwei investigate, I'm afraid it won't be a crowd at that time.
Time
The faces of the ministers of the DPRK and China became extremely ugly, and cold sweat oozed from the foreheads of many people.
Han Lin's tone was playful: "Why did it suddenly quiet down?" Isn't there a ghost in your heart, worried that I will find out?! ”
"Bump!"
Han Lin slapped the dragon case.
Then he took out a booklet and slammed it into the ground.
The cold gaze swept over everyone's body.
"See for yourself, don't think I don't know what you're doing behind your back."
The nearest waiter of the Ministry of Rites picked up the booklet.
After opening it,
Looking at the content above, I broke out in a cold sweat.
I saw that it was clearly recorded that the family assets of officials from all walks of life.
For example, how many acres of fertile land, how many real estates, and how many carriages.
How many people are in the house, where are the gold, silver and jewels, and how many.
When the waiter of the Ministry of Rites saw that there was his name on it, he trembled with fright and knelt directly on the ground.
"Your Majesty..... Your Majesty, spare your life. ”
A few people around picked up the booklet curiously.
After seeing the content, their faces also changed greatly, and they hurriedly knelt down and begged for mercy.
Time
The entire court begged for mercy.
