"Teng Defeng! Is this how you manage the Ministry of War for us?"

The two or three contents on the letter paper made the emperor Zhu Chongba on the dragon throne very angry.

"Wei Chen is guilty!"

Teng Defeng, Minister of the Ministry of War, quickly came out to plead guilty.

As the Minister of War, he certainly knew how bad the consequences of what MCA had committed would be, but he felt helpless in his heart.

If he is an ordinary subordinate of the Ministry of War, then of course he can take care of it.

But as for MCA, a relative of the emperor and the country, not to mention that he couldn't control it at all. Even if the people below knew about this situation, they would not report it at all. So how did he know?

This does not include those Huaixi nobles who are completely independent from the Ministry of War and go to the town with the major vassal kings.

For these beings, the normal rights are either in your hands, Your Majesty, or they belong to the clan mansion.

Bitter.

Therefore, Teng Defeng, Minister of the Ministry of War, only confessed his guilt at this time, but did not say what crime he was guilty of, because he could not admit his innocence at all.

Zhu Chongba, the emperor on the dragon throne, naturally knew this truth. He just needed someone to stand up and take the blame at this moment.

"You will be punished with half a year's salary. After you go to court, you will immediately cooperate with the clan government to bring that Ma Hua back to the capital for punishment!"

"Yes!"

After Teng Defeng stood back in line, he dared to wipe the sweat from his forehead.

"Minister of the Ministry of Finance!" Zhu Chongba then called out the next lucky person.

"Chen is here!"

Lu Shang stood up quickly with anxiety.

"You can immediately calculate for us how much it will cost to open a royal hospital in each place."

Life is not easy, the emperor sighed.

After giving Zhao Zheng a fierce look and blaming the Zhao family for giving him another big problem, Emperor Zhu Chongba knew that he had to solve this problem.

Money has to be paid from the treasury.

Otherwise, if the Zhao family did it themselves, how could he travel with peace of mind.

"Everywhere?"

When it comes to money, Lu Shang, the Minister of Revenue, feels uneasy. This is his area of ​​expertise.

Just by making some calculations in his mind, he knew that it was an astronomical figure.

"His Majesty!"

"Have you calculated it? How much is it? Just transfer it directly from the treasury."

Emperor Zhu Chongba, who was sitting on the dragon throne, rubbed his forehead with one hand and waved with the other hand. He was thinking about how to explain the matter about MCA to his sister after the next court without affecting his mood for the upcoming trip. .

"This……"

"Your Majesty, if the Royal Hospital is to be built in various places, that is, in the county, it will cost at least five levels of the treasury! At present, my annual treasury balance is only about 10%, and we cannot afford to build it."

Lu Shang, the Minister of Household Affairs, shook his head directly.

“Then build it to all state capitals!”

Faced with the emperor's request, Lu Shang still shook his head.

"Why it still doesn't work!"

Emperor Zhu Chongba felt extremely irritable when he saw him shaking his head.

But as Lu Shang, the Minister of Household Affairs, managing money is his first priority. On this matter, he will never give in when it is time to give in.

"Your Majesty! The state capital has its own resources. Whether it is built or not will not improve the people of the state capital. On the contrary, it will increase the burden on the people seeking medical treatment."

"Taking into account the expenses such as road navigation and customs clearance, it is not much easier than seeking medical treatment through normal means. Moreover, if it is an acute illness, the patient will not be treated and the money will be wasted."

"Then what do you think we should do?"

Although the truth is this, Zhu Chongba is the emperor after all, not the Minister of Household Affairs. He only needs to know the answer to the question.

"This……"

You ask me how a money-keeper spends his money. How can I give you some ideas?

Lu Shang, the Minister of Revenue, replied directly with a look of constipation on his face, "I can't help it."

It's not that he really has an eye for money, but as the Minister of Household Affairs, all the money flows under his hands, and he knows the importance of saving money too well.

Silver is just a number in the emperor's mouth, but he has to actually spend so much money.

For example, this time the great victory in Liaodong was obviously a great victory, but it was reflected in the treasury's water flow, which was a negative 20%.

Without him, once the land is acquired, it is impossible to turn it into money immediately. After the personnel are recruited, in order to appease the people, they have to continue to spend money.

In fact, the fundamental problem of all this lies in one starting point: the utilization and development of resources are too low.

It's a pity that no one has ever thought about it. This has been the pattern for generations. If it is broken, you can see spring flowers blooming.

"Your Majesty! Perhaps there is something we can do to help you!"

Who spoke?

When the court was silent, someone suddenly spoke, and everyone looked in the direction of the source of the sound.

After seeing the person who spoke clearly, his pupils shrank.

Yes, of course it's Zhao Zheng.

"Zhao Aiqing, please speak."

Emperor Zhu Chongba was originally depressed about Zhao Zheng. After all, this issue was raised by someone from his Zhao family.

Now, are you trying to dismantle yourself? You want us to give him a proper position!

At this moment, Lao Zhu was extremely looking forward to Zhao Zheng speaking.

"Your Majesty, this law needs to abolish the inheritance of medical households first."

Zhao Zheng obviously smiled slightly, but the emperor Zhu Chongba on the dragon throne always felt that there was a knife in his smile.

"Abolish medical inheritance?"

Could this be related to the previous request from the Zhao family for him to abolish his craftsmanship?

The Zhao family is actually playing a big game of chess! ?

Zhu Chongba couldn't control himself from thinking about this, and he fell deeper and deeper into it.

"Yes, Your Majesty. In fact, you just asked Lu Shangshu to allocate funds to build royal hospitals in various counties. Even if there is so much money in the treasury, the royal hospitals cannot be opened."

"Why?"

"no one."

Zhao Zheng spread his hands and was very straightforward.

Lu Shang, the minister of household affairs next to him, saw it and immediately learned from it.

"Actually, I thought of this just now."

"Your Majesty, firstly, there is no money, and secondly, there is no one, so I really can't think of a way."

After Lu Shang finished speaking, he spread his hands.

Emperor Zhu Chongba, who was sitting on the dragon throne, saw this and his beard jumped with anger.

"Then Zhao Aiqing, tell me, what will happen after the medical households are abolished?"

"Your Majesty, if you want to build a hospital, you must first build a medical school, which is a private school that specializes in training doctors."

"This time, due to the incident involving the head of Wei Chen's family, all the people with superb medical skills in the world have gathered in various places, and they just happened to be teachers at the same place."

"In the future, when there are more talents, we don't need to go down to each county to build medical clinics. We can directly expand the number of medical officers in each county government."

"In this way, we save money and have more talents, which further shows His Majesty's kindness and wisdom."

Zhao Zheng continued to smile.

Emperor Zhu Chongba on the dragon throne continued to feel something was wrong.

It was such a coincidence that the doctors he had gathered together were not cured of their illnesses, and most of them just stayed in various state capitals and did not even come to the capital.

Just in time, Zhao Zheng proposed to build a medical school and let them take office directly without having to travel.

But, besides coincidence, he couldn't find anything wrong.

Is it possible that even if the Zhao family is divided into factions, they can still have the same mind-set.

Because the content of this memorial involves things that happened thousands of miles away.

"Your Majesty! I think Minister Zhao's method is advisable!"

"There are ready-made Chinese studies everywhere. Even if medicine is different, it is just two more specialized classrooms. Including doctors' salaries, it only accounts for half of the national treasury!"

The emperor was still doubting, but Lu Shang couldn't sit still when he heard that he was saving money, and went out of the queue to shout long live, interrupting him.

"Then just do what Zhao Aiqing said!"

"Alright dear friends, we have nothing..."

"Your Majesty! I have been lamenting all night long!"

Emperor Zhu Chongba, who was tired from sitting, had really returned to the palace. Even if he had doubts in his heart, he wanted to go back and think about it slowly, but who knew it was not over yet.
