The Ministry of Industry, the Ministry of Households, and the Ministry of Rites have been playing and crying poor one after another, which has both practical and subjective reasons.

Realistically speaking, the largest source of income for the state treasury is the imperial court's monopoly business, official salt, official iron, etc., as well as various tax items such as land endowment, poll tax, and commercial tax, and the income is not small.

In recent years, due to the impact of natural disasters and wars, the state treasury surplus is not much, and in the face of this year's disaster relief and corruption, more than 6 million taels have been smashed back and forth, and it is suddenly a little stretched.

Subjectively: they want to arouse the curiosity of Chu Wu and the system by crying poor, learn the clues of the treasures of the previous dynasty through the conversation of one person and one person, and dig them out as soon as possible to fill the treasury.

Unexpectedly, they discussed it and were ready, and the system did not go the way they envisioned.

Chu Wan: [The poverty of the treasury is well known, so let's not talk about it for the time being. 】

Emperor:???

Hundred Officials: ???

Why, why don't you talk about it for now?!

Some impatient Wenchen generals couldn't help it anymore and wanted to open their mouths to turn the topic back.

At this moment, they heard Chu Wu's curious question: [Is the emperor's private treasury also out of money? 】

Baiguan: Hmm——???

It doesn't seem to be that urgent, you say slowly.

The emperor sat on the high platform, and took in the many expressions and small movements of the civil and military ministers below, especially when they were anxious when they heard "don't talk about it for the time being", and full of interest when they heard that he "had no money in his private treasury".

This is the minister of the Dasheng Dynasty! One by one, I want to see my jokes!

The system didn't reply at the first time, obviously running to dig melons and eat them.

Chu Wu is not in a hurry, the last dynasty is so boring, and so on.

The emperor is still not very sure how big the system's ability is, and he wants to test the system's ability through this matter, but he is afraid that Chu Yu and the system will publicize the fact that he has no money in his private treasury to everyone.

"What do the secretaries propose about the lack of treasury?"

At the risk of being known by everyone that "the emperor is poor", he also has to turn the topic back!

There are only a few sources of revenue for the state treasury, and the ministers can only find a way out of the few that exist.

Someone proposed: "Increase the issuance of salt." ”

Dasheng's salt is monopolized by the imperial court, that is, commonly known as official salt, when the imperial court is short of money, it will increase the salt introduction, and the salt merchant will buy the salt introduction, and then go to the salt field through the salt introduction to take salt and sell it, which is a more conventional and fixed means.

It is precisely because they are familiar with and know the exact revenue and the current situation of the state treasury brought by the increase in salt introduction that many officials agree and agree.

"Your Excellency approves."

"The minister seconded the proposal."

"No way!" The head of the household objected, "I just issued an additional issue four years ago, and if you issue it again, how much are you going to issue?" Do you think those salt merchants are stupid? ”

When the system came back from eating the melon, he heard this spray, and when he saw that the head of the household was spraying all over his face, the whole person was about to be mad, and others didn't dare to refute their opinions.

[Sister Wang, what's wrong? 】

Chu Wan: [Just the year when my brother was not robbed. 】

System: [Uh-huh, what happened later?] 】

Chu Wu: [Aren't you able to eat melons by yourself? 】

System: [The search is also to be melon-neng, I can eat ready-made, why spend melon-energy?] 】

Chu Wu: "......" You have a good point.

Tobe Shiro, who was still so angry that he blew his beard and stared, was stunned when he heard this, it turned out that the system didn't know everything.

The officials have their own thoughts, in this case, they have a lot of loopholes to exploit.

Chu Wu explained: [That year, before the end of the year, I received the news of the snow disaster in the north, and the national treasury allocated disaster relief and organized follow-up reconstruction work. As soon as we caught our breath, the torrential rains caused floods, and the state treasury allocated funds for disaster relief, rebuilding homes and building levees. The weather is getting hotter and hotter, drought here, typhoon over there, doesn't this cost money again? 】

The system gasped: [No matter how much money you have, you can't help spending it like this.] 】

The emperor and the officials nodded silently, that is!

No matter how wise the emperor is, no matter how much the ministers will save money, they can't help but ask for money everywhere and have so many ways to spend it.

Chu Wu continued: [The weather is so extreme, many people's lives are gone, who can take care of farming? In order to avoid the tragedy of the people from changing their children and eating, Dasheng looked at the treasury that could not be squeezed out, so he could only pinch his nose and issue an additional five million pieces of salt, note that this is an additional issuance, that is, it is added on the basis of the original. 】

[A piece of salt leads to 200 catties of salt, and this time an increase of a whole billion catties of salt is issued, and the salt farms in Dasheng can only produce 200 million catties of salt a year, which is equivalent to selling the salt in the next five years in advance. Salt merchants buy salt to do business, who wants to spend all the money and have to wait so long? 】

[In order to lure so much salt to sell, they used all 36 strategies, although they rescued countless ordinary people, they also tried their best to find large salt merchants with abundant assets, and tried their best to reduce the impact, but one billion catties of salt is too much, and the big salt merchants have their own sources and are unwilling to buy so much, so there are many small salt merchants to buy, and later under various factors, the family is ruined. 】

The emperor and the officials were silent.

Some of them didn't expect that Chu Wu, a boudoir woman, knew so well about the affairs of the court, and some people felt that Chu Wu spoke clearly and clearly, and even a few military generals with not very flexible brains showed an expression of "It turns out that the household servant is angry about this" after listening to it.

The system sighed when he heard it: [They are trying their best to save more people. 】

So many people in the entire court have been silent for so long, and no one speaks, Chu Wu and the system may notice that something is wrong.

Officials looked at each other, and someone proposed: "Distribute more tea." ”

Chu Wu: [Change a sheep. 】

Emperor: "......"

Baiguan: "......"

Ahem, what nonsense, what a big truth!

Next, officials discussed how to increase the distribution of tea.

It was a helpless move to issue so many additional shares at one time, and until now they are still wiping their butts for the measures taken four years ago, and now the treasury has not reached the point of exhaustion, they have to come slowly, carefully.

The treasures of the former dynasty mentioned by the system, they want, but they can't pin all their hopes on it, what if there are few treasures? What if digging is difficult? What if someone poachs them?

Chu Wu yawned as she listened, [System, the whole one is refreshing. 】

System: [Okay!] 】

One person was addicted to eating melons, and he didn't notice that the ministers who were discussing lowered their voices, and the emperor on the high platform moved his butt uncomfortably.

The system deliberately used the UC broadcast voice: [Shocked! The emperor of the dynasty was poorer than the Hubu Shangshu! Is this a distortion of human nature, or a moral degradation?! 】

Emperor:???

What? Are you richer than me?

Hubu Shangshu thought that he was quite happy to be able to eat the emperor's melon, but he couldn't prevent it from eating it on his head, and he was in the sky with fire and ice.

It's okay! He told himself that the system would only disappear for a while, and that he would not find out everything he had hidden outside.

Chu Wu immediately became energetic: [Didn't you go to see the emperor's private treasury? Why do you still go to see the book of the household? 】

System: [I dug the melon from the emperor's private treasury, there is a specific direction, you can know how many things there are when you see it, and there is no specific concept of whether he is poor or rich in the Dasheng Dynasty. Then, I came back and wanted to ask you who you were looking for. 】

[Aren't you so excited to see the Tobe squire when you come back? ] I'll go see him, good guy, so poor that he wears the front and back after wearing his underwear, and he has broken several holes and hasn't lost them, and he went to see his boss in curiosity, and then I found out that he was greedy. 】

Emperor: "......"

Baiguan: "......"

No, it's really not, why don't you give a pair of underwear to the Tobe squire in the future?

The old face of the Tobe squire was flushed with shame, and he only felt that all his colleagues were looking through the official uniform to see if his underwear was worn backwards, how many holes there were, and the lower half of his body was cold.

Chu Wan: [Very greedy? 】

System: [Too greedy!] There is a hot spring village on the outskirts of Beijing, and the whole wall in the study is full of gold, plus a garden in the south of the Yangtze River, and the gold, jade, antiques, calligraphy and paintings sent by others, all of them are still less than two million taels. 】

In an instant, the eyes of the emperor and the household servant lit up, and the monarch and the minister had an incomparably tacit understanding: copy! With these two million in the treasury, it will be able to issue a lot less tea.

As soon as he heard that the system knew in such detail, Tobe Shangshu's face was whiter than the wall, and as soon as his legs were weak, he was about to kneel down and plead for mercy, and he was forced to stand up by his colleagues on both sides.

Then, the emperor's threatening eyes also arrived.

If you dare to show your feet in front of the court and be discovered by Chu Wu and the system, you will die!

Outside the hall, there was a brocade guard who happened to be stuck within fifty meters of Chu Wu's body, listening to and recording the conversation of one person and one person at all times.

Hearing this, the commander of the Jinyi Guard hurriedly assigned people.

Dozens of brocade guards rushed out of the horse and rushed to the hot spring Zhuangzi on the outskirts of the capital.

Whether the three princes are remnants of the previous dynasty and where they hooked up with the generals of the previous dynasty has not yet been conclusively proven, but this whole wall of gold can immediately confirm whether everything the system says is correct.

An hour later, Jin Yiwei handed over the list of items confiscated from the hot spring village to the imperial study.

And the emperor also had a specific list in his hands.

He took this list and the pair that Jinyiwei had confiscated, and matched most of them.

The reason why it is not all is because the list in his hand is that Chu Wu is bored in the previous dynasty, and wants to know how many good things there are in the Hubu Shangshu, so that the system can report it little by little, and it also has the function of identifying the authenticity of calligraphy and painting, which is strange and easy to use.

Emperor: "Lin You." ”

Jinyiwei commanded Lin You: "The minister is here." ”

Emperor: "Copy it clean." ”

The next day, Chu Wu followed her father to the court, and unexpectedly found that most of the officials who passed by them were very happy.

Can you not be happy?

The household Shangshu's house was copied overnight, it was two million taels, and the treasury was immediately empty, and they could be regarded as having a good night's sleep.

Only the household servant looked at Chu Wu's eyes with a little resentment, and he couldn't cry or laugh.

His incorruptibility was proved together with the huge greed of the head of the household, and his reputation was good, but ...... Everyone knows that he is so incorruptible that there are holes in his underwear when he is wearing them!

Chu Wu: ?

[System, why does Tobe Shirou look at me like this? 】

Tobe Squiro: !!

Other Officials: !!

Oops! Now it's exposed!

Tobe Shirou was in a hurry, if this matter was exposed to him, I don't know how much damage it would cause to Dasheng.

The system laughed: [He shouldn't be looking at you, he's looking at the person behind you.] Yesterday, the Tobe waiter was in a hurry to get on the tuba.,The small door of Gongfang's room was not closed.,He pushed it open.,I happened to see that there were several holes in the Tobe squire's underwear.,And then everyone in the household knew about it! 】

Chu Wan: [Hahahaha......]

System: [Hahahaha......]

One person laughed wildly, and the hundred officials laughed at the same time as they breathed a sigh of relief.

Although they are not very kind, they are really curious if Tobe Squirou's underwear is real...... Ahem, comradeship comradeship.

But it's really funny hahahaha!

Tobe Squiro: "......" So, I'm the only one who was hurt?
