As soon as this statement was made, Zheng Yi, the Minister of Rites, immediately became the focus of all his attention.

Even the Ministry of Revenue has nothing to do with it. What can the Ministry of Rites do?

It seemed that he felt that what he said was a bit inappropriate, and he suddenly looked uneasy.

"Zheng Aiqing, but it's okay!" Zhu Yunxi smiled and said, "Is the court meeting just a brainstorming!"

"I have a way!" Zheng Yi said hesitantly, "Donate!"

"Hmm?" Zhu Yunxiu was unhappy, but he still smiled, "How to donate?"

"When I was an official in the local area, whenever there was something unbearable in the local area, the government would organize the gentry to contribute money and efforts." Zheng Yi said, "This way, it would save you... The war in Yunnan and Myanmar is imminent,

If the court has temporary difficulties, I believe that the gentry in the world will definitely pay donations enthusiastically. The court can commend..."

"Stop!" Zhu Yunxiu suddenly shouted.

Zheng Yi immediately lowered his head, afraid to speak again.

"Where has the Ming Dynasty reached?" Zhu Yunxiu looked at him and said loudly, "Oh, the memorials all day long are the peace and prosperity of the country, and the country's strength is growing day by day. If there is something wrong with the court, you ask the gentry to donate money, you

Are you embarrassed?"

"You are embarrassed to say that I am embarrassed to listen? I am shameless!" Zhu Yunsheng sneered, "It is not enough for the people in the world to pay food and taxes?"

"I didn't mean that..."

"That's what you mean!" Zhu Yunxiu looked at him and said, "When there were disasters in the local area before? Haha! I don't know what's wrong with the local area? The court has to raise the relief funds themselves, so the local area has to raise the money.

Did you get the victims’ hands? Where did you go in the end?”

"You are still the Minister of the House, can you say this?" Zhu Yunxi continued to say hatefully, "Aren't you afraid of laughing at me?"

Then, he thought to himself, "This Zheng Yi is going to be replaced, now he is confused!"

Zhang Feng, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, also frowned, "These are two things that cannot be confused. However, the local government organized large gentry members to donate generously, but the government promised benefits, otherwise they would be ruthless. The court used troops to speak with the gentry?

If you are not careful at that time, for example, if you are not clear about the accounts, who can explain it clearly?”

"Actually, Lord Zheng said, I am..." Sitting in the penultimate row behind, the Ministry of Revenue gave the staff member Zhang Sizhong. He gave the staff member a lot of power and was considered to be a high-ranking official.

The second level of promotion is the Minister of the Sixth Ministry.

"Do you agree?" Zhu Yunxiu asked.

"I am not agreeing, but thinking of something else!" Zhang Sizhong said, "There are some difficulties in the Ministry of Revenue's treasury near the end of the year, and we must also keep money for the future needs of the coming year. As for the old foundation of the treasury,

That can't move even more!"

The treasury of the Ming Dynasty was actually not without money. There were tens of millions of dollars, but it could not be moved.

"The donation that the matter of Zheng Shangshu said was not advisable to the court's face, but I thought I could borrow money!" Zhang Sizhong said, "It was established in the early days of the Yuan Dynasty. It borrowed interest from the private sector and returned it to the maturity...

”

"This hole cannot be opened!" Zhu Yunxiu said seriously.

He knew that national debt was a good thing, but in this era... the official is the god. Who can do it if you don't admit it if you eat it all and don't admit it?

"Remember my words, no matter when the sky falls, you can't use this method!" Zhu Yunxiu looked at the ministers and continued, "Since ancient times, wealth is touching, and money is too easy to come by, officials will inevitably attack, and in the end, not only will they be the only one who can do it.

Losing the original intention will make the court lose all its face."

"It doesn't matter if the court loses its face, the most important thing is to lose the hearts of the people! People will not stand without trust, let alone the Ming Dynasty. What's really embarrassing about it? Do you take out money from your pocket and plug the holes?

”

"Hmph, I'm afraid I'll be faster than anyone else at that time, and I'll pick it cleaner than anyone else!"

Zhang Sizhong couldn't sit still and immediately stood up and said, "I have made a mistake, please punish me!"

"There is no need to punish me!" Zhu Yunxiu said with a sip of tea, "But I have something to warn you, don't use this kind of cleverness again in the future."

"I obey the order!" Zhang Sizhong was sweating profusely.

"I thought the national treasury was abundant now, but now it seems that there are too many places to use money. It's not okay to be careful when you are not careful!" Zhu Yunxi sighed halfway, "Well, Mu Chun said that he would like two million to raise some of the Ministry of Revenue."

Zhang Feng immediately said, "The money that the Ministry of Revenue can move is only 800,000." As he said, he looked at Zhu Yunyu and continued, "No matter how much more the minister is, the minister cannot take out the minister. If the emperor blames the crime, he can only let the minister move the matter.

!”

"Ha!" Zhu Yunxi smiled, "Okay, you don't have to complain to me!" As he said, thinking, "My inner treasury can probably take out about 700,000..."

Zhang Feng and others hurriedly said, "No!"

"Nothing is impossible! My money is also the country's money!"

Most of the money in Zhu Yun's inner treasury is the severance of Lianghuai salt water, and part of the customs tariff. This money is said to be his inner treasury, but most of it is used for military expenses.

"I said I wanted to fight, but it doesn't matter. I, the emperor, don't give up a penny." Zhu Yunxiu said, thinking for a while, "I have taken all the money, my uncles...?"

Suddenly, the ministers' eyes lit up.

Yes, were all the vassal kings of the Ming Dynasty so rich?

All the courts have raised them all over the years, giving them this and that, and they belong to the bitch... Those who belong to Pixiu only enter and do not leave. Besides, the case of King Zhou has been revealed recently. Is it just that King Zhou? Others are just doing it.

Clean?

From the King of Zhou, the wealth of the vassal kings can rival a country.

"But what I said is a bit inappropriate!" As he said that, Zhu Yunyu picked up the teacup and blocked his face.

"I'm here to submit a memorial!" Among the ministers, Xin Yande, who had just been promoted to the position of the General Secretary, said, "I won't name it anymore, just use the recent case of King Zhou to talk about the matter. If the vassal kings have some concerns, they will definitely serve the court!

”

"This young man!" Zhu Yunxiu smiled bitterly in his heart, "What I mean by saying this is, let's study in private how to open this speech! You are fine, just make it clear in front of everyone!"

When the vassal kings paid the money, the nobles would be embarrassed to be iron roosters?

In this way, the military expenditure problem will be solved.

"Yeah!" Zhu Yunxiu coughed deliberately.

But Xin Yande continued as if he hadn't heard it, "I have another opinion. The case of King Zhou that was recently tried involves huge amounts of money. I think the confiscated property does not need to be confiscated, and it is sold on the spot and directly converted into silver, money, etc., as military supplies.

!”

"I'm going to give you a comment!" Zhang Ju said.

"Yeah, the report is correct!" Zhu Yunxi smiled, "I also have an idea in my mind."

Then knock on the table, "If today is more peaceful, corruption will be born in the prosperous era. In the future, there will be corruption cases, and the money involved will be filled into the treasury and specially classified. It will be used for disaster relief, relief of the widows, and building bridges and paving roads in the future!"

"The emperor is wise!"

~~

The dynasty would disperse and the ministers would retreat, but someone was left to speak by Zhu Yunxiu.

Ling Han, the old minister of the Minister of Personnel.

"Ling Aiqing was at the court meeting just now, why didn't he say a word?" Zhu Yunsheng smiled.

"The economy is not the director of the old minister!" Old man Ling Han sat with his back slightly bent, looking a little unsatisfied. "If you say the wrong thing, the old minister's face..."

"Well, you are better than some people. You are obviously not financially dependent on the economy and have to make a laugh. Ha, he is not just his face, I am so embarrassed!" Zhu Yunsheng smiled.

Ling Han suddenly complained in his heart and thought to himself, "Young Master is getting more and more confused!"

He is not vague in terms of right and wrong, and he is not vague in terms of virtue if the king is indestructible. However, he has never offended many of his colleagues in recent years.

Offending the emperor does not necessarily mean death. Offending his colleagues is worse than death.

"How about your personal relationship with Zheng Yi?" Zhu Yunhuang opened the skylight and said in a daze.

"A common friendship!" Ling Han said, "He was born in the Hanlin period, and the old minister was a Jinshi in the previous dynasty."

That's something that's wrong!

Zhu Yunxiu pretended not to understand, "He is old, and I'm so careless about seeing him being in poor spirits. Please turn around and persuade him!"

"I advise you to tell him that he will resign and retire and make room for others!" Ling Han cursed in his heart.

Zhu Yunxiu said again, "Come here, the old Shangshu sat down with me and told me all morning to reward the carriage and leave the palace. That... The Shandong tributed some big persimmons from the north. The old Shangshu was also a native of the north. Take them back and taste them.

Taste it!”
