Chapter 229 Are you at a loss or am I at a loss?(1/2)

Then, His Majesty the Emperor recruited the Minister of Revenue and asked: "How much gold and silver are there in the treasury?"

When the Minister of Revenue heard this, he looked disgusted: "And... it looks like less than 20 million taels."

In terms of daily expenses, the treasury still has a reserve of 20 million taels, which can be maintained for at least one year, which is definitely not too small, but now, this number is not enough!

Not even a fraction!

More than one million loyal souls, how much is one hundred taels per person? What's more, how enough is one hundred taels per person?

"Not enough! It's far from enough!"

His Majesty the Emperor murmured, and then asked: "How much cash is there on hand? I want the exact number,"

"Not less than five million taels!"

This time, the Minister of Revenue answered quickly. He was a little confused about what the Emperor's intention was to ask this question. Even if he wanted to reward the three armies, he could not just cash. Moreover, the amount of money was not enough. Just military pay was not enough, let alone pensions and rewards, etc., which was at most a drop in the bucket.

"Five million taels... these are enough to fulfill my idea." His Majesty the Emperor frowned, rubbed his eyebrows, and said slowly: "I will send an order to the Ministry of Works to work overnight immediately; cast...three million silver coins."

"ah?"

The Minister of Revenue raised his head indifferently, and his eyes almost protruded.

What are you trying to do?

The money was not enough, but it was only this little money in total, and it was too short of money. I still had to cast it into silver coins?

And what is the silver coin used for?

Our country has never said anything about gold and silver coins.

Is it necessary to promote the new currency system?

But I have never prepared for this before. The involvement in this area is too big. Isn’t it better to be honest in one moment?

Seeing that the Minister of Revenue was full of confusion, His Majesty the Emperor explained: "This batch of silver coins is not used for circulation. The eight words "Loyal soul will not disappear, and the great spirit will last forever" are engraved on the front of the silver coins. Well, under those eight words, the seal of the jade seal must be marked. The back is my Jade Tang national flag, which is the basic model."

"Then, the name of a fallen soldier must be engraved on each silver coin, and it must be implemented on everyone!"

His Majesty the Emperor said sadly: "I want all the orphans of the soldiers who died; in addition to the medals of military merit, they should be given pensions and rewards, and property... and a silver coin for loyal souls is given. It is corresponding to every family."

The Minister of Revenue gradually understood His Majesty’s intention and agreed in a deep voice: “Yes.”

"This loyal soul silver coin cannot be used as a flower, and it is strictly prohibited to trade; however, those who hold this silver coin will have half a fee for all children to study; if there is any matter, it will be given priority; if you are bullied, you can see that your parents will be given priority."

"Your Majesty, I also know that Your Majesty is sympathetic to the orphans of soldiers. However, if this batch of silver coins is released, it is a big deal and involves too many things. I will only talk about one. Silver coins are very easy to be cast. If such a large number of silver coins are issued, it will inevitably be inevitable that there will be no way to distinguish the authenticity at that time. This silver coins have great effect... If someone really uses it, it will inevitably become a big trouble." The Minister of Revenue thought for a while before saying.

His Majesty the Emperor said lightly: "If this matter is easy to handle, I will just send an order directly. Why bother to ask you for discussion? I have to only one request and cannot use it."

The Minister of Revenue was stunned: You can't use it? This is already a big and difficult thing, okay? What can I do? Isn't this difficult?

"Go down." His Majesty the Emperor said: "Think about it carefully and think about how to operate it. You cannot be used, you cannot be... you cannot be... you cannot be... you cannot be...

"Go down, think about it and reply."

The Minister of Revenue went through a lawsuit with a bitter face.

I thought I had to discuss overnight how to avoid these troubles... My life is really hard!

When the Minister of Revenue in this poor country, he had to tighten his belt every day, and he wanted to break a copper plate into eight petals. In this position, he was asking for money everywhere, and I don’t know how many people he offended...

Every time I report, I must be the one who is impeached the most...

It’s easy for me. I have extra work today. If I have such a brain-burning and headache-inducing job, it will cost people a lifetime!

...

The Minister of Revenue has gone down.

"Is Mr. Yun still here?" asked His Majesty the Emperor.

"Your Majesty, Mr. Yun has been waiting in the side hall for a long time."

"Let him get in." His Majesty the Emperor said.

As the time of speaking, the eunuchs had already filled the imperial study room with piles of books, and there were endless crowds of people coming to carry books like a hill.

Generally speaking, too many people are strictly prohibited from entering and leaving the emperor's imperial study room. Even if the emperor's will, it is necessary to wait until the emperor leaves before proceeding. After all, too many people will cause potential dangers. However, the number of related secret books that the emperor wants this time is quite large; it also includes many ancient books from previous dynasties... It is really not a small number, and after a rough estimate, it is not a problem to fill two imperial study rooms.

In view of this, the eunuch leader naturally reported immediately. Everyone knew that His Majesty the Emperor attached great importance to this data investigation and would never dare to neglect and relax.

"Put some in first, wait until the investigation is completed and confirm that there is no omission, and then move another part in it." His Majesty the Emperor ordered.

Before he finished speaking, Yun Hou walked in in a hurry.

"What is this for?" Yun Hou was shocked when he saw the books in the room.

The Imperial Study Room said it was a study room, and there were indeed many books inside, but it was more of a rare situation for the emperor to handle political affairs and review memorials, and to really make up so many books.

"Let's not talk about this for now." His Majesty the Emperor stared at Yunhou with his eyes tightly: "That... what happened to the matter I asked you to investigate before? But is there any result?"

Yunhou rolled his eyes, sat down on the Grand Master's chair, and said leisurely: "Give me a cup of tea first."

Looking at the entire Yu Tang Empire, including the three most famous gangsters in the capital, Qiu Jian, Cold Knife, Fang Qingtian, it was concluded that no one dared to be so arrogant in front of Yu Tang Emperor Yu Peize. But Yun Hou Yun Xiaoyao dared to be so brave!

Faced with the Emperor's inquiry, the big thorn wants tea and water!

The emperor closed his eyes and took a deep breath.

"Come on, pour tea!"

"Go to your palace snow buds!" Yunhou said: "I like that taste!"

His Majesty the Emperor closed his eyes again and took a deep breath: "Go! Go to Xueya tribute tea!"

Tea comes up.

When Yunhou saw the hunting, he was happy and stretched out his hand to take it.

"Slow!" His Majesty the Emperor held it down: "It's better to talk about the main business first. After you finish it, you can drink tea. It doesn't matter how much you drink. But before you finish it, you don't have to hurry to drink tea!"

Yunhou closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and then slowly exhaled.

His Majesty the Emperor looked at him with his eyes squinted. Little girl, can't he cure you?

Obviously, tea-loving is a small weakness of Yunhou, and it is enough to be the key to being cured!

"What's the matter? The war?" Yun Hou finally decided to surrender.

Why should I be so serious about some things? Especially when facing the ruler of a country, just accept it if you accept it. Can you really be taller and shorter?

"I mean...I'll ask you to check..." His Majesty the Emperor lowered his voice and leaned against Yun Hou's ear viciously: "Is your precious son Yun Yang... the thing about Yun Zun?"

Yunhou took a deep breath and then slowly exhaled, and the qi and veins were as long as possible.

"What are you finding out?" asked His Majesty the Emperor.

Yun Hou Jingzi sighed deeply: "I'm so thirsty!"

"Come here!" The emperor's Majesty's forehead leaps blue veins: "I dare to despise the king and deceive the king..."

"You can pull it down!" Yun Hou waved his hand and said, "I understand that with my current cultivation strength, with the few people under your command, I can't stop me from doing anything. Do you know, it's anything!"

His Majesty the Emperor was breathless and he didn't come up. His eyes widened and pointed at someone: "Good boy, he has become capable and has a promising future. Do you dare to challenge your brother? But, have you already had this ability? Tell me, what do you want to do, say, say, say, say!"

Seeing that the Emperor, who was completely different from his usual average, Yun Hou was a little stunned and raised his hand: "I said, I said that's it."

"Say! What's the point of saying it!"

"Actually, what I said is really nonsense, I didn't find out." Yun Hou spread his hands very readily: "No."

His Majesty the Emperor's eyes were filled with stars for a moment, and he was furious and raised his hand. The cup of tea he had just poured for Yunhou was swept to the ground with a bang, and it was smashed to pieces!

I didn't find out, but what did you want to get? This is everything about you?

You are so arrogant, why don’t you go to heaven?!

Yunhou sighed, waved his hand, and the teapot that was placed far away flew over by himself, poured a cup of tea in an orderly manner, and said softly: "I tell you the truth. It's not that I didn't check it out on purpose, but that I really didn't find it out... Actually... I can't figure it out. Why do you insist on finding out who Yun Zun is doing? Isn't it enough to know that he is harmless to you?"

His Majesty the Emperor sat on the dragon chaise in anger, his eyes looking at Yun Hou's face like a sharp lightning.

"Actually, who is the Nine Lords and who is the Yun Lord, is it really that important?" Yun Hou said softly: "No matter who he is, he is the heartfelt supporter of Yu Tang!"

"Even if you find it out, what can I do?"

"Yun Zun has been concealing his identity from beginning to end, not wanting anyone to know his true side. For why you don't know?"

Mr. Yun asked, as if he was asking the emperor, and seemed to be talking to himself: "He who has the only fruit of the Nine Lords, wants to take revenge, first of all, needs safety. Only safety is the first thing to do is to talk about the follow-up. On the other hand, Yun Zun's identity was not revealed seriously for a day, leaving a day of more shock to the entire Tianxuan Continent! It belongs to... the unique shock to the Nine Lords!"

"But if one day Yun Zun's identity is revealed and his identity background is dug out, then... do you think the legend of the Nine Lords of Yu Tang can last?"

"Once others know his identity, he may die in less than three days!"

"At that time, the Nine Lords will really become legends!"

Yunhou said: "So, don't check it!"

His Majesty's eyes slowly turned soft and helpless, and said, "I don't understand this section. Before I let it go, I would not have investigated so deliberately. But the situation now has changed."

"You should know that the earth master of the Nine Lords is my eldest prince... He left his bloodline by chance. And this matter was notified by Yun Zun at the beginning..."

His Majesty the Emperor closed his eyes helplessly: "Do you know... This means... This Yun Zun can now control the imperial power, or even control the heirs of the throne; even... If I finally pass the throne to that child, this Yun Zun is equivalent to the regent..."

"I... don't want to investigate; but I also... have to investigate."
To be continued...
