As soon as Shi Shiran stood still, Zhu Gaoxu on the side couldn't help but tease him and said with a sarcastic face: "Master Wang is very calm. He can sleep so soundly in the morning. It seems that he must have been worrying about the national economy and people's livelihood recently.

My heart, I don’t even have time to sleep.”

Zhu Di's expression was also a little unkind.

"Tell me, what did I just ask you to do?"

What did Zhu Di ask him to do? How could Wang Siqi know? He could only respond hesitantly: "The emperor greets the ministers, and naturally he needs the ministers. Then the ministers should perform their duties as ministers! Are you asking the emperor to express clearly what you need the ministers to do?

"

When Wang Siqi seemed to have said everything and yet seemed to have said nothing, even Zhu Di couldn't help but be amused by it.

"Okay! What I just said is that all the money your boy has earned recently will be put into the national treasury to fill the emptiness of the national treasury. Since you are a minister... let's just let this matter be settled!"

???

You can covet my body, but even if you are the emperor, you can't covet my money!

Wang Siqi immediately came to his senses and said, "Your Majesty! If the Emperor wants Baoyuan Bureau's money, I will naturally not complain at all. Baoyuan Bureau is the government's yamen. Whenever the imperial court needs it, it can be taken.

!”

"Oh? You are quite generous..."

"Then tell me... how much money does Baoyuan Bureau have now?"

When Wang Siqi was dismissed and immediately took up his post at Baoyuan Bureau, he first specially launched the audit mode. When Baoyuan Bureau began to have a steady stream of income, this regular audit mode was also not compromised at all.

Therefore, Wang Siqi is quite clear about how much money he has in his pocket and how much money Baoyuan Bureau has.

"Return to the Emperor! Now the accounting room of Baoyuan Bureau should have a silver discount of about 7,300 taels!"

"What!?"

Seven thousand three hundred taels?

Zhu Gaoxu's eyes widened and he couldn't believe what he heard. He quickly looked at Zhu Di and said, "Your Majesty! Baoyuan Bureau has more than just seven thousand three hundred taels of silver. If this number is true, then this Wang Siqi must be there."

Baoyuan Bureau has enriched his own pockets! Please ask the emperor to issue an order to investigate and deal with it!"

Zhu Di snorted coldly.

Then he turned his attention to Wang Siqi again and said: "His Royal Highness the King of Han just said that since you Wang Siqi took office, in just a few months, you have made hundreds of thousands of taels of silver through business, but now you say that Baoyuan Bureau only has a few thousand taels of silver."

Two silver coins?"

"Come and tell me, where is the other money? Where have they gone?"

Plot against me?

Wang Siqi reacted immediately.

"Your Majesty, the money I earn is naturally earned by me! Baoyuan Bureau deserves it, and I have not shortchanged Baoyuan Bureau by a tael of silver. This point... every item is traceable! Even if it is

A copper coin also has an account that can be checked!"

Zhu Gaoxu frowned, as if he didn't understand the meaning of Wang Siqi's words.

But he still said bluntly: "The money you earned at Baoyuan Bureau is not the money you earned for the imperial court. Since it is the money earned for the imperial court, why should it be divided between you and Baoyuan Bureau? Shouldn't it all belong to the imperial court?"

?...Even if you have merit, you will naturally ask the emperor for merit and give you a reward!"

"But the hundreds of thousands of taels of silver should not be bad at all! They should all belong to the imperial court!"

Rao has been a man for two generations and has seen great storms and waves.

Wang Siqi was also shocked by Zhu Gaoxu's gangster speech. Isn't this just naked robbery?

Everyone in Lao Zhu's family has this talent.

But Wang Siqi shook his head and explained: "I dare to ask His Highness the King of Han, does this business require capital?"

Although he was puzzled, Zhu Gaoxu still responded coldly.

"It's natural."

"When private companies do business, who has the final say who provides the money? Have you ever heard that the shopkeeper who provided the money to do business will eventually give away every cent of the money he earned?

Strong guy?"

"This... I have never heard of this, but what does this have to do with you embezzling huge sums of money from the imperial court?"

"Your Highness the King of Han! First of all... I have not swallowed up a single coin from the imperial court, let alone the hundreds of thousands of taels you are talking about. It is me who funded the business, and the person who helped me was the craftsman who worked for Baoyuan Bureau. I

I also gave you a treatment that can’t be found in the entire capital!”

"Can the money earned from this still belong to the Baoyuan Bureau?"

"Um?"

It has to be said that Wang Siqi's explanation caused many ministers to have such expressions on their faces. It seemed that he felt the reactions of the ministers around him. Zhu Gaoxu's face instantly became ugly. After he

It seems that since Wang Siqi has arrived at Baoyuan Bureau and is doing business outside under the name of Baoyuan Bureau, the money he earns belongs to Baoyuan Bureau and the imperial court.

No matter how much money he earns, he can't take away any of it.

At best, he is just a fat lamb... But now it seems that everything is not the case. Wang Siqi has already laid out everything long ago.

This made Zhu Gaoxu, who originally wanted to use this as an excuse to squeeze money out of Wang Siqi, very dissatisfied. He snorted coldly and said: "You, Wang Siqi, are an official of the imperial court. What do you want with these hundreds of thousands of family wealth? Why don't you just take it out?"

, support the imperial court’s great cause of the Northern Expedition!”

Wang Siqi was stunned by the bandit's logical statement.

He immediately shook his head with a smile, spread his hands and said: "According to His Highness the King of Han, everything under the sky is not the king's land; the shore of the land is the king's ministers."

"Why should the imperial court worry about the lack of money? Just to see who is rich, they can just pull out the army, break open the door of the house, and take whatever they want... There is no use keeping it anyway, so why not give it to the imperial court to use first?"

"You, you, you! What nonsense!"

"When did this king say such a thing!"

Even if he wanted to, he couldn't admit it... Zhu Gaoxu became a little panicked. Wang Siqi's statement was very tempting, but this was tantamount to a method of killing the goose and taking the egg... Come here a few times, what else does the Ming Dynasty court and bandits have?

the difference?

It’s not like Lao Zhu back then, the Zhu family now is the Zhu family who have to be reasonable.

Zhu Di frowned and looked coldly at Wang Siqi, who was currently quarreling with Zhu Gaoxu. He had mixed feelings in his heart. There was a reason why the boy from the Wang family could earn so much money... On the other hand, the drug developed by Wang Siqi would kill Xu.

The queen was rescued.

Although it has not been completely cured, the symptoms have indeed been relieved a lot.

Queen Xu would not forget about food and tea, nor would she have trouble sleeping day and night.

Thinking of this, Zhu Di still felt that he owed Wang Siqi a favor, and then he slapped the dragon chair and shouted angrily: "Second brother! What are you talking nonsense over there... The court has no money, and the court is trying to find a way. You spend all your time on yourself."
