"There's really no way?"

Zhu Jie asked.

Hou Sui smiled bitterly and said: "Your Majesty, it is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice, and the minister will not change seventy-two times, how can he conjure millions of taels of silver?" ”、

"Humph!"

Zhu Jie asked: "Lord Hou, in vain you are still known as the financial management minister of the Ming Dynasty, this little thing can't be solved?" Dig the brain hole a little bigger, and the method is always figured out! ”

"This ......"

Hou Sui asked with a bitter face: "Your Majesty, you are a genius in the sky, a man of culture and martial arts, unparalleled in the world, where can a minister compare......

Zhu Jie replied lightly: "It's very simple, you have just said that the annual income of the imperial court next year should not be less than 10 million taels, and now with my two wills, I think there is no problem to reach 15 million taels, right?" With fifteen million taels of silver as a guarantee for next year, I can borrow from the ministers here, and I can also borrow enough money and food to support a year, right? ”

The Chinese military officials of the DPRK cannot say that all of them have a lot of wealth, but most of them are from a solid family, and even there is no shortage of people with a family property of more than one million, as long as the courtiers are willing to help and want to tide over this difficulty, there is absolutely no problem, but how can Zhu Jie's idea be realized? Chongzhen was not able to borrow silver taels in Japan, let alone Zhu Jie, who had just been exempted from the courtiers' favors and even had to collect taxes from the courtiers?

The most important thing is that the situation in the DPRK and China is not good now, not to mention anything else, the Manchurian Tartars are eyeing each other, how long can the Ming Dynasty last, no one has the bottom in their hearts, once the silver is lent to the imperial court, and finally the imperial court is destroyed by the Manchurian Tartars, then the cause of the loan is not the meat bun beating the dog and never returning?

Many courtiers kept silent one by one, no one wanted to speak, speaking at this time, it was the sworn enemy of the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military affairs, and he would really become a loner in the future!

Zhu Jie smiled and said, "Why, my lords, no one wants to give me this thin noodles?" As long as you are willing to borrow money, as the Son of Heaven, I guarantee to you that I will pay you 10% of the interest next year. It's a chance to make a fortune......"

One percent of the interest, that is almost usury, now take out 10,000 taels of silver, and next year, it will be a bonus of 1,000 taels of silver!

However, even with such tempting benefits, there is still no one to talk to.

Sun Chuanting sighed secretly, stepped forward, and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, the minister has been fighting in the local area for many years, and his family does not have much savings, but there is still some gold and silver, and the minister is willing to spend all he has in his family and lend five thousand taels of silver......

After all, Sun Chuanting is different from others, in the early years, Sun Chuanting regarded himself very highly, and he was unwilling to go along with it, so naturally there were many fewer people who gave him gifts, and then he entered the prison and was imprisoned by Chongzhen for two years, and now he has only been released for three years, of which there is still one year to fight outside, not to mention that Sun Chuanting can't do anything to search for grease cream, even if he can, there is no such opportunity, five thousand taels, go out to the house for daily use, this is already Sun Chuanting's greatest strength.

Shi Kefa also took a step forward and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, the ministers have always been idle officials, and they can't be compared with Inspector Sun, the ministers are surrounded by four walls, and they want to take out more silver taels, but there is no, and the ministers and ministers are willing to donate two hundred taels of silver......

Zhu Jie was so angry that his nose was crooked, these two people, what's in the way of you? Cheer me on with your drums? Lack of success, more than failure, as soon as you start, who else is willing to borrow more? Even if I want to pull out one or two cuts, I have no excuses!

It's just that the two of them have already stood up, and Zhu Jie is no longer angry, and there is no way......

"Minister Jiang Dejing is willing to lend five thousand taels of silver!"

As the first assistant, since Sun Chuanting and Shi Kefa have taken the lead, Jiang Dejing naturally can't help but stand up, and the first assistant naturally can't take less than others, otherwise, this face is really ugly, Jiang Dejing gritted his teeth and said.

"The minister is willing to lend five thousand taels!"

"Chen Qian Qianyi is willing to lend five hundred taels ......"

Zhu Jie looked at Qian Qianyi fiercely, this old guy was only willing to take out five hundred taels of silver! That's really unreasonable, but what can be done? Shi Kefa only took two hundred taels of silver, if he blamed Qian Qianyi, what would Shi Kefa do?

"Chen Lu Daqi is willing to lend five hundred taels ......"

One by one, the courtiers had to stand up, anyway, there were Sun Chuanting and Shi Kefa and Jiang Dejing behind the blame, they took less, then no one was willing to act as the wronged leader, more than one or two thousand taels, as little as four or five hundred taels, the least even only fifty taels of silver, above the court, said to be a hundred civil and military officials, in fact, where are there so many officials, more than a dozen ministries, Shangshu and Shilang together, that is, fifty or sixty people, plus some other officials, there can be eighty or ninety, even if it is a lot, eighty or ninety people, It's just a hundred thousand taels of silver......

Hundreds of thousands of taels of silver, what is this special enough for? It's not enough for the imperial court for a month! It's not enough for a town's soldiers for a year! It's a drop in the bucket!

"Good, good, good!"

Zhu Jie sneered and said: "They are all my good courtiers, good courtiers, I have received these silvers, but let's take them back, only Shi Kefa's two hundred taels, since it is a donation, I will accept it!" ”

"Your Majesty, ...... you are"

Sun Chuanting hurriedly asked, why don't you accept it, no matter how small the mosquito is, it is also meat!

Zhu Jie waved his hand and replied, "No, Brother Baigu, I don't need it!" Hou Sui, immediately negotiated with Yongxing Bank, with an interest of five cents a year, to Yongxing Bank to borrow 5 million taels of silver, with the imperial court tax for five years as a guarantee, to repay in ten years, Yongxing Bank within 10 days, must deliver 5 million taels of silver to the treasury! ”

Forehead......

Hou Sui's face changed, five million taels, the emperor actually wanted to borrow five million taels from Yongxing Bank in one go, and the interest was only five cents, which was less than half of the ministers of the imperial court, knowing that the emperor was the major shareholder of Yongxing Bank, but such a large amount of silver was lent out, and all shareholders had to approve it, right? This is not a joke, five million taels, not fifty thousand taels, not five thousand taels!

"Your Majesty, can this, do you do this?"

Zhu Jie said in a deep voice: "Lord Hou, if you can't do it, you have to do it!" Is there any other way now? Since there is ready-made silver, and all the ministers are unwilling to earn it, then I have no choice, I have already given the opportunity, since I am not willing to grasp it, then don't blame me for not favoring my courtiers, it is you people who do not continue to ......."
