"Long live thanks!"

The kneeling ministers then breathed a sigh of relief and stood aside.

"The national treasury is empty, and natural disasters are constantly coming. Countless victims are waiting for the court to provide relief. Where did this disaster relief silver come from?" After dealing with Han Du, Zhu Youjian began to raise the treasury silver.

Although I had a plan to go to Korqin to grab one.

But now, it's too late.

Don’t talk about going out to fight, even the money for military pay and disaster relief is not enough.

Especially the military pay, in addition to the remaining soldiers under the city and the soldiers who came to serve the king, the money that had been owed for a long time.

According to the original Chongzhen practice, Liao Xiang was added and land tax was added.

These methods have forced farmers who have long been underweight to make it even worse.

When the last straw is crushed, a large-scale uprising will break out.

He will definitely not do such stupid things.

But no one answered his words.

The chief minister of the cabinet said he was sent to prison, so he gave up.

These people are already frightened birds.

Who dares to stand up and speak? Otherwise, if you don’t do it well, you will be punished again.

"Master Zhou, what do you think you are going to do it?" Zhu Youjian looked at the group of people coldly.

"I... I think that I can increase the Liao salary and increase the land tax, and the national treasury can be supplemented!"

"In addition, from the wealthy areas in the south of the Yangtze River, more food is collected and transported to the severely affected Shaanxi and Gansu areas can solve the temporary difficulties!"

Although Zhou Yanru spoke stutteringly, he still had his own ideas.

"Yes, you reminded me, but now the people are struggling to survive, so I may be unable to bear the additional levy."

"The suffering of the people does not mean that our officials does not mean that our treasury cannot afford the money!"

"I decided to take out 10,000 taels of silver from the treasury and hand it over to the Ministry of Revenue to allocate!"

When he heard that he was extracting it from the people again, Zhu Youjian was displeased, but this was a routine operation in all dynasties.

Then there was no attack and decided to take the lead in donating.

"Your Majesty, you must not, the treasury is..."

Wen Tiren knelt down on the ground, saying with tears in his nose.

"I have decided that the treasury is empty and the people have no choice but to bear it. The Ministry of Revenue cannot take it out now. As the lord of all people, it is natural for me to take out some money. My lords, as important officials of the court and the parents of the people..."

Zhu Youjian directly interrupted Wen Tiren's words and made a generous speech.

He himself opened the small treasury, could these ministers remain indifferent?

"I am willing to share the worries of the emperor!"

Sure enough, these people were still a little sensible and knelt down in one go.

"Since this is the case, I thank you all my dear friends for the people of the world!"

After Zhu Youjian finished speaking, he gave Gao Qiqian a look.

The latter immediately took out a small notebook and prepared to start accounting.

The people are poor, the court has no money, but all officials have them!

And each one is rich and rich.

This is especially true for these officials in the court now.

In the past, if the money was not enough, they would never pay any extra money.

The additional money sent was sent, and they had to take a break from all counties, prefectures and prefectures.

Then after unified coordination by the Ministry of Revenue and distribution downward, they still have to make a move.

They don’t have money, so who has money?

This scene made the courtiers confused.

Even if we leave, we should go back and discuss with each other and take out a similar number.

But what the emperor meant today was that they had to report the numbers on the spot.

This is inevitably a bit embarrassing.

If you have a lot of trouble, you will feel pain in your heart and offend other colleagues.

If there are fewer offers, what if the emperor is not satisfied?

"The old minister has no savings at home, so he is willing to pay a thousand taels of silver!" Sun Chengzong took the lead in speaking.

He was honest all his life, basically without corruption, and he was all his salary.

If someone starts, then they will do their own things as rules and follow them.

"My minister Zhou Yanru is willing to pay a thousand taels of silver to share the worries of the emperor!"

"Mr. Zhou, you have been an official in the court and have made a lot of money. Could it be that your family's savings are not as good as Mr. Sun?"

Zhu Youjian said coldly.

I remember that when the treacherous thief Li Zicheng invaded the capital, tortured and tortured, he knocked out 70 million taels of silver on these officials.

The treasury at that time was only a mere 100,000 taels.

Even Chongzhen summoned the ministers to raise money before, but he only raised only two million taels of silver.

According to the price offered by the thief at that time, "the central hall was 100,000, the imperial court of the Ministry of Justice was 70,000 or 530,000, the Ministry of Personnel was 530,000, the Hanlin was 321,000, and the subordinates were all in a thousand."

These people can take it out. Zhou Yanru actually wanted to give him a mere 1,000 taels of silver. It was so outrageous.

"I...I am willing to pay 3,000 taels of silver..." Zhou Yanru said with a sad face.

He spent a lot of money on the military work the last time, and now his heart is still hurt.

"It seems that you still need to work harder. I heard that there are still 20,000 Guanning Iron Cavalry that have not arrived."

"Although the Tartars retreated, they came to the capital to serve the king thousands of miles away. They are very brave and honorable. I can't let them be heartbroken..."

Zhu Youjian said casually.

"My... I am willing to sell part of my property and pay 10,000 taels of silver to share the worries of the emperor and the court!"

You can come whatever you are afraid of. There are 20,000 people coming. You can’t even catch two meals of food and drink.

Besides, the soldiers who serve the king will never leave when they come, and will take a day or two off.

"Well, I'll write it to Lord Zhou. After the court meeting is over, I'll send someone to Lord Zhou's house to get the money!" Zhu Youjian nodded with satisfaction.

"I am willing to pay... 10,000 taels of silver to share the worries of the emperor!" Wang Yongguang, the Minister of Personnel, looked at Zhu Youjian, floated to his side, and said quickly.

"I am willing to pay 10,000 taels of silver to share the worries of the emperor and to contribute to the people of the world!" Zhang Fengxiang, the Minister of Works, was not willing to fall behind. At this time, he would be beaten to the slaughter.

"My minister of the Ministry of Revenue Bi Ziyan paid...5,000 taels of silver to share the worries of the emperor!"

Bi Ziyan did make the money by gritting his teeth. Although he has been in the Minister of Revenue for several years, the Ministry of Revenue has been in deficit over the years.

"I am willing to sell my property, disperse my slaves, and collect ten thousand taels of silver to share my worries for the emperor and the court!"

Wen Tiren stood up and said without waiting for the emperor to click him.

And he said it very generously, and he sold his property to make up money, hoping to move the emperor.

Especially now he is just a minister, not a minister.

It's totally suspicious of being a leader.

However, he didn't care. If Han Du was taken down, there would be one person missing in the cabinet.

He wants to attract the emperor's attention and join the cabinet.

But Zhu Youjian was laughing in his heart. The ministers in the court only counted that Wen Tiren was a complete treacherous villain, and he wanted me to praise you a few words. It was really a delusion.
