An ordinary family only consumes more than ten taels of silver throughout the year. If these 500 million silver were piled up, it would be as spectacular as a mountain!
As far as the Qing Dynasty was concerned, in the prosperous and prosperous times, the total revenue of the government in a year was only tens of millions of silver...
"System, this is not the five-color altar teleportation array. This is the starry sky teleportation array created by Qian Psychic God using gold and silver, right?"
"The materials required for the five-color altar are all on the drawing. The steps are detailed, please let the host know!"
The system gave a faint reply and immediately turned on the pretend-death mode.
"Trick me!"
Liu Hao's face darkened, and he gritted his teeth and put away the architectural drawings of the five-color altar.
This teleportation array between worlds is related to the future development plans of the Han Dynasty. Liu Hao must implement it no matter what the price.
"Make money! Where to make money!?"
This was the only thought running through Liu Hao's mind.
"Xiao Guizi."
"Your Majesty is here!"
In the Han Dynasty, there was no need to call slaves, and the eunuchs in the palace also called themselves ministers. Xiao Guizi rushed in from the outside of the palace, bowed low, and asked respectfully: "What are your orders, Your Majesty? Dinner is already served
Instruct the imperial kitchen to start preparations..."
Liu Hao waved his hand and said: "Quickly tell Guo Jia, Zhuge Liang and others at the Chancellery should come to the palace to have dinner."
"Here!"
Xiao Guizi quickly went out to deliver the order.
Not long after, there was a sound of footsteps on the white jade steps of the palace.
Guo Jia, Zhuge Liang, Mei Changsu and other officials at the Chancellery filed into the hall. They all knelt down, bowed and bowed their heads, and said loudly: "I pay homage to His Majesty the Holy Emperor. Long live His Majesty! Long live His Majesty!"
"Everyone, please get up and give me a seat."
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness!"
Seats had been prepared in the palace. Guo Jia, Zhuge Liang and others all stood up and took their seats.
When everyone sat down, Liu Hao asked: "How much gold and silver does the Qing government have in its treasury now?"
Zhuge Liang cupped his hands and said: "After counting the inventory at the Chancellery, after deducting the rewards for the three armies, the Qing government treasury has a total of 190 million taels of silver and about 60 million taels of gold..."
"Isn't this too little?"
Liu Hao pinched his eyebrows and said with a wry smile.
Zhuge Liang explained with a smile: "Your Majesty, the Qing court is not as rich as the Han treasury. It has been working hard for many years, expanding its armaments every time, and has millions of troops. It has fought bloody battles with the Chu army and the Western army from north to south for many years. The battle line is extremely long and consumes a lot of money...
....”
"Then there are the children of the Eight Banners, who only rely on the generous salaries provided by the Qing court to survive, and the burden of government affairs is extremely heavy..."
Hearing what Zhuge Liang said, Liu Hao nodded, knowing what he was talking about.
The country had foreign troubles, so the Qing government had to invest a lot of money into military preparations. The Eight Banners' millions of troops did not come out of nowhere.
The Qing court treated the children of the Eight Banners really favorably. Even if they did nothing, the generous salary from the court was enough to live on. That's why there were children of the Eight Banners who spent all their time walking birds, fighting cocks and eating free meals. The Qing court was eventually doomed.
"This is such a scam!"
Liu Hao secretly calculated: It would take at least 500 million silver to build a five-color altar teleportation array. Even if the Qing court plundered everything, he still couldn't do it!
The world of the Southern Song Dynasty and the chaotic Western Wei Dynasty had just fought a chaotic war, and they were still recovering and recuperating. There was no oil and water. It was really no good. They had to return to the world of the Han Dynasty, transfer gold and silver from the treasury, and build a specific framework first.
.....
"The ancients did not deceive me. It's hard to have enough money to use prescriptions! Money is not everything, but being without money is absolutely impossible. I never thought that one day I would encounter the trouble of lack of money...
"
Liu Hao's mind was racing, but he suddenly woke up from a dream, and a person's name appeared in his mind:
He Shen!
It is our Heshenhe!
"I forgot, what happened to He Shen?"
Liu Hao was slightly sweaty. He conquered the Qing Dynasty, swept away millions of Eight Banners soldiers, and killed the world's heroes in Longshan. He even forgot about Heshen and the Lord...
"Nian Aiqing, is there a prisoner named He Shen in the Qiqing clan's residence?"
Liu Hao asked sideways.
When they first arrived, Heshen and his Excellency were in extreme danger. Even now, they don’t know whether they will live or die...
Nian Gengyao was sitting at the end of the table. When his name was called, he felt excited. He hurriedly stood up and saluted, bowed and said: "Is your Majesty talking about He Shen, the Minister of Household Affairs of the Qing Dynasty?"
Liu Hao said: "It is this person, do you know where he is?"
Nian Gengyao bowed and said: "This person controlled the financial power of the Qing government and bribed hundreds of millions. He was escorted to the Clan's Mansion by Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty for questioning. He was ordered to be beheaded after the fall. He should be locked up in a prison now...
.”
"That means it hasn't hung up yet..."
Liu Hao felt slightly relieved, nodded and said, "Go and bring him out. This person is still useful to me."
Nian Gengyao perked up and said loudly: "Weak minister, take your orders!"
He was also a capable man who acted vigorously and resolutely. After receiving the order, he was very attentive. When the dinner in the palace was over, he led his men and went straight to the prison.
...
Heavenly prison.
A fat middle-aged man, wearing prison uniform, was sighing at the iron wooden fence.
Someone in the surrounding prison cells cast a pity look at him: "It's pitiful that Heshen and your Excellency, who were so powerful back then, have ended up in this situation, living in the same room with you and me."
"Isn't it true? Emperor Kangxi's money bag holds the financial power of a country, but now he is a prisoner of his subordinates!"
Naturally, some people also sneered: "Haha, the country's giant, greedy rat, looks like he only has a few days to live, he really deserves to die!"
"Now that the Qing court is in ruins, His Majesty the Holy Emperor has made great efforts to rectify the Eight Banners of the Qing court. He Shen, this damn fat man, is definitely dead!"
There was a lot of discussion in the sky jail. The prisoners on death row were bored and discussed current affairs to pass the day.
He Shen shook his head, feeling desperate.
When he was thrown into the Heavenly Prison and asked to be executed by Queen Qiu, he once encountered a voice in his dream, which was like an immortal, guiding him to surrender wholeheartedly to the Holy Emperor of the Han Dynasty, which would save his life. Now the Holy Emperor of the Han Dynasty has taken control of the country.
A divine weapon, but he is trapped in prison. He is willing to devote himself to it, but there is no way to repay it!
It's a pity that the gold and silver hidden in the outer house...
While He Shen was thinking wildly, the door of the Tianlao suddenly opened, and a young eunuch ducked in with his nose covered, shouting sharply: "Who is He Shen!?" ...
