Chapter 288 Thank you Bao Zong for your generosity!
He said to Dai Yi: "Tell someone to inform the surrounding naval forces and drive the escaped Huilong camp towards Jiaozhi. Let them act more realistically. They must have the feeling of being far away from them even if they want to catch up, so that Baozong can
It gives me a feeling of luck that I escaped from death because of the smoke coming out of my ancestor’s grave.”
Dai Yi immediately accepted the order and left.
Zhu Jianji took a look at the Woxin Palace and found that it was in good repair and could be used as a palace in Taiwan.
Didn't go in.
He said to Fan Biao and Xie Wan: "From today onwards, Fan Biao and Xie Wan will die in battle. In order to prevent the Baozong from becoming suspicious and thus suspecting Han Shui and others, Fan Biao, I gave you the name Fan Der Biao. Do you know what it means?"
Fan Biao felt solemn in his heart, "I will remember His Highness's teachings."
There is an extra word "virtue".
Meaningful.
Zhu Jianji hummed, secretly amused. It was one thing to warn Fan Biao, but naming him Fan Der Biao was mainly out of spite, because he had such an extremely profound character in his heart.
Then he said to Xie Wan: "I will give you a name——"
After a pause, "Forget it, you were beheaded by Baozong's order, and I saved you at the critical moment, so you don't need to change your life."
I like the name Xie Wan.
Xie Wan breathed a sigh of relief, bowed to the end, and said, "Thank you, Your Highness."
It is an honor to be named by the prince.
But as a scholar, Xie Wan does not care about this honor. He cherishes the name given by his parents even more.
Zhu Jianji also saw that Xie Wan looked wrong, so he simply offered him a favor.
Xie Wan was grateful and said: "Your Highness, please go and check the treasury of the Puppet Dynasty to store documents and avoid any accidents. After all, Kaohsiung is a bit chaotic at the moment, and there are broken troops everywhere."
Xie Wan knew what His Royal Highness was thinking.
He didn't even intend to enter the Woxin Palace, nor did he personally pursue the Baozong. So there was only one thing that could keep His Highness in Kaohsiung, and that was the tens of millions of taels of gold and silver in the puppet treasury.
This is a huge amount of money.
It was so big that even the current emperor would drool over it.
It should be noted that the Ming Dynasty's treasury's annual income is only about 20 million taels, while Baozong's treasury has a total of more than 50 million taels. Even if part of it is moved away, there will still be at least 40 million taels.
Zhu Jianji's eyes suddenly brightened up, "Let's go and have a look."
Come to the treasury.
The treasury, which was once heavily guarded, is still heavily guarded now, and they are soldiers of the Tiger Guards. Next to the treasury, there are a large number of trees emitting green smoke.
Zhu Jianji couldn't help but sigh: "Han Shuiping did a great job!"
He knew where his target was, so before leaving, he left a tiger guard from the general banner to guard the treasury. At the same time, in order to paralyze the Baozong, he deliberately set a fire next to the treasury.
actually……
This fire is superfluous.
Because the treasury is made of square boulders, it cannot be burned at all.
However, the Baozong Association believes that although this fire cannot burn the treasury, it can burn the gold, silver, pearls, agate, etc. in the treasury, thereby recognizing Han's level of ability.
Xiang Yu nodded to Zhang Bu, "Someone will take over."
He then said to the general of the Huben Guards who was responsible for guarding the treasury: "You can stay with Fan Debiao from now on. As for whether to return to the Fifth Army Governor's Mansion in the capital of the Ming Dynasty or stay in Taiwan, you can make your own decision."
The commander-in-chief immediately thanked him.
Zhu Jianji led people into the treasury, looked at the dense boxes inside, and opened a box at random. The yellow light shone, and Zhu Jianji's face broke out with laughter.
He said to Xie Wan: "You are responsible for counting."
Thank you for your edict.
…
…
Three days later.
Zhu Jianji was sitting in the Beiwang Pavilion, while Xie Wan knelt on the ground and reported: "Your Majesty, the inventory of the puppet treasury has been completed. According to the accounts of the Ministry of Accounts, the puppet treasury originally had 56.38 million taels of silver.
After the war, the inventory was counted, and after converting pearls, jade, agate and many other valuable items, there were approximately 42 million taels of silver."
Zhu Jianji was speechless, "How much?"
Xie Wan was stunned for a moment and repeated it again.
Zhu Jianji didn't seem to hear clearly, "How much?"
Xie Wan woke up instantly.
This money is a trophy, and it will be deposited into the Gyeonggi treasury after being registered. Judging from His Highness's situation, he may plan to go to the East Palace Treasury in a dark way, so he said weakly: "Thirty-five million taels?"
Zhu Jianji: "How much?"
Xie Wan secretly cursed in her heart, seven million taels can't satisfy His Highness's appetite?
Continue to change his words, "Twenty-five million taels?"
Seventeen million taels should be enough?
Zhu Jianji: "The wind is strong, I can't hear you clearly, how many are you talking about?"
Xie Wan: "..."
He said cruelly: "There are still ten million taels!"
Thirty-two million taels, this amount of money can fill up the East Palace warehouse. No matter how big your highness's appetite is, he should be content with it.
Zhu Jianji was silent and did not ask any more questions. Instead, he talked about the war, "This time to conquer the Taiwanese rebels, the Donggong Young Army spent about one hundred thousand taels of silver. The coastal guards of Fujian, Guangdong, and Zhejiang had water
The divisions went out in full force, and they went to practice in the sea outside Dengzhou Guard before. The cost was not small, almost two and a half million taels. After a war was won, the national treasury must have some profits, so that it can continue to expand in the future.
So if this trophy is five million taels, it should be applauded by all the officials in the court, right?"
Xie Wan was stunned.
Only five million taels are given to the treasury, and the remaining 37 million taels are all transferred to the East Palace?
this……
It’s too dark!
The key is how can you transport such a large amount of money to the East Palace quietly, and the officials will not be suspicious of the East Palace's use of the money afterwards.
Still echoed: "In ancient wars, most of the military expenditures were spent without any benefit, let alone trying to balance it. If His Highness's expedition to Taiwan can fill the national treasury with two to three million, who among the civil and military officials in the hall would dare to criticize it!"
Zhu Jianji laughed loudly, "Mr. Xie's words make sense, so it is reasonable to create a book of five million taels, right?"
Xie Wan said without sincerity, "It's very reasonable."
Zhu Jianji smiled happily and said, "Then let Mr. Xie register and make a register again. But I hope that the register that Mr. Xie sent to me will not be known to the second person."
Xie Wan hurriedly expressed his position, "Wei Chen knows."
Zhu Jianji's heart suddenly moved.
Said: "This expedition to Taiwan, Fujian, Guangdong, and Zhejiang's Coastal Guard Stations contributed a lot of effort and cost a lot. In this way, six million taels were registered, five million taels were transported back to the Gyeonggi treasury, and the remaining one
One million taels will be distributed evenly according to the number of warships dispatched by the coastal guards of the three major capitals."
The navy must be given sufficient military spending.
After all, the navy is developed on the basis of the navy.
And a large part of the money he had hacked was originally used for the navy. Now giving part of it to the navy can also win over the hearts and minds of the navy at the local defense station.
Kill multiple birds with one stone.
Xie Wan immediately smiled and said: "Your Highness Shengming!"
Then he asked weakly: "Your Highness, don't you do business in Taiwan?"
Zhu Jianji suddenly realized, "Then leave another one million taels for Taiwan."
Flesh hurts.
Money comes quickly and is spent quickly!
But after all, I made a lot of money, thank you to Baozong for your generous donation!
