He listened to what he said, because he was a dignified elder, and it was really embarrassing to openly talk about looting! But everyone understood what he meant and laughed.
But Zhang Siwei's hometown is Shanxi, so he naturally understands the situation at the border. He smiled bitterly and said: "Don't you know the situation at the border? It's already difficult to hold on to the existing defense line! Those Tatars often go to the border to harvest grass and grain, which is very annoying.
bother!"
Shen Shixing said with a look of fascination: "It would be great if one day it was our army from the Ming Dynasty who went to thresh the grass and valleys!"
Zhang Siwei hurriedly said: "Absolutely not, I can't do such provocative things! And if this word spreads, it is inevitable that some people will imitate Wu Ninghou, so don't cause any more chaos!"
Everyone smiled slightly and said nothing when they heard what he said. But the people here are all extremely shrewd people, and they don't know that the Zhang family and the business outside the customs are booming! If something happens on the border, the biggest loser will be
The Zhang family is running a caravan outside the Great Wall! But maybe even if there is a warning, the business may still be carried out!
However, all of Zhang Juzheng's energy at this time was on reform, and he did not want to let extra things distract him, so he nodded and said in agreement: "It is indeed true! It is indeed difficult for warning signs to appear in the border areas at this time! When the country has enough money and food in the future,
It is also reasonable to give more property to the border troops so that they can deal with the Tatars clearing grass and valleys."
Zhang Siwei nodded after hearing this and said: "That's right! But when it comes to this, we should strictly check the food and salary sent to the border troops! I think one can reduce the amount of food and salary delivered each time and send it more often.
So as not to let the border troops accumulate food and pay. To avoid the possibility that any general who was irritated by Wu Ninghou committed a crime and sent troops northward!" 33??qxs??.????m
When it comes to this issue, everyone has a common understanding, and they all feel that the control of border troops and horses should be strengthened to avoid confusion and affecting the overall situation of the court.
But these few people didn't think about it. If they did this, wouldn't they give the people who transfer food and wages more opportunities to get their hands on them? According to the current rules, it would already make the soldiers at the border miserable. If they really pressed them
If we use our own ideas to do this, I’m afraid the soldiers will not be miserable!
However, in the opinion of the elders, the soldiers can still endure a "little" hardship! After all, compared with the overall situation, this small amount of hardship is nothing! What's more, the soldiers are vulgar and uncivilized. If they are not strictly controlled, God knows what they will do.
What trouble is caused!
If Liu Haojia were here, he would probably be stunned, right? After all, he didn't know that his actions at sea actually triggered changes in the border. This was something he didn't expect!
At this time, the palace was already full of joy, because Emperor Wanli was personally leading the palace people to build a silver mountain!
Unlike other nobles, there are many places where silver is needed in the inner treasury. So every time the inner treasury gets silver, half of it is converted into bank notes from Liansheng Bank, and the other half is used in cash. And today Zhang Jia
As soon as he received the money, he transported it all back to the palace. He knew that this would please Emperor Wanli the most!
Sure enough, Emperor Wanli laughed so hard when he saw the cart full of silver! And when he heard that Liu Haojia had built a silver mountain, he immediately became interested! After he asked about the shape of the silver mountain, he immediately went to his palace
Start building Silver Mountain!
However, his silver was much less than that of Liu Haojia, so the size of Yinshan was naturally much smaller! Especially against the backdrop of the tall palace, Yinshan looked even smaller. But this was already a huge pleasure to Emperor Wanli
!
After he finished piling up the silver mountain, Emperor Wanli wiped the sweat from his forehead and walked around in circles admiring his achievements. After circling a few times, he threw away the towel in his hand and said: "Marquis Wu Ning is indeed a good minister! He can fight and make money.
, and he can come up with such novel and interesting ways to play! Well, next time whoever he wants to fight, I must allocate more money to him!"
At this time, Zhang Jia also took the time to learn Liu Haojia's words of calling on the nobles to unite around Emperor Wanli again, which made him extremely satisfied and beaming with joy!
At this moment, someone outside the palace announced that Miss Zijuan had arrived. Emperor Wanli knew that Empress Dowager Li had sent someone to inquire about her, so he hurriedly said: "Call in!"
He was so excited because he wanted to see Zijuan's expression when she saw Yinshan. And just as he expected, Zijuan's feet were obviously weak when she came in! If she hadn't reacted quickly, she would have fallen down.
It's over!
Seeing Zijuan like this, Emperor Wanli couldn't help but burst into laughter! Zijuan stood firm and bowed to Emperor Wanli with a blushing face. Emperor Wanli waved her to stand up and said at the same time: "Get up, what did the queen ask you to do?"
Zijuan pressed her hand on her racing heart and said, "When I heard that Lord Long Live was building a silver mountain here, I asked my slave to come and see what the situation was like."
Emperor Wanli waved his hand proudly and said, "How is it? I made it myself!"
Zijuan said sincerely: "It's really shocking! I never thought that money could be piled up like this!"
But at this moment, Zijuan suddenly thought in her heart that the silver brought into the palace was only a small part of the silver mountain built by Wu Ninghou, but the silver mountain in front of her was shocking enough. If it were the complete silver mountain
What will the Silver Mountain look like?
However, Zijuan had been in the palace for many years and had already developed the ability to perform two tasks. While complimenting Emperor Wanli, she was pondering her own thoughts in her heart. It was not until Emperor Wanli was made happy that she bid farewell to Emperor Wanli and returned to Empress Dowager Li's home.
Bedroom.
After entering the palace, she immediately relaxed. She described the situation in a daze, and finally said: "It is said that the silver in Long Live Lord's palace is only part of Wu Ninghou's silver mountain, so I can't think of Wu Ninghou now."
I’d rather see how big that silver mountain is!”
Empress Dowager Li laughed twice and said: "This little hozen is really capable of making a lot of noise. It even made the Long Live Lord follow him! Send a message to the people below to stop talking nonsense."
Zijuan naturally agreed and then gave the order, but she could clearly hear the satisfaction in Empress Dowager Li's heart, and she understood that what Empress Dowager Li was most satisfied with Wu Ninghou was not the money, but calling on the nobles to unite under the Wanli Emperor
By her side! She knew that these words were in Empress Dowager Li’s heart, and she was afraid that Wu Ninghou would be even more favored in the future!
Such a big event would definitely alarm Hu Zhiyu and others, so he made a special appointment to meet with Zhang Yuanfeng. After the two exchanged pleasantries and exchanged other matters, Hu Zhiyu shook his sleeves and said: "Brother Zhang Xian, what do you think of Wu Ninghou's expedition?"
