Another World Da Ming: I use a hundred lives to become holy

coming!

Hearing those four familiar words, both Emperor Zhu Chongba, who was about to get up on the dragon throne, and the civil and military ministers in the court felt their hearts tremble.

But after they saw the people coming out clearly, they realized that the prefix they called was "Lao Chen", and Zhao Zheng had just stood back.

"Wang Zheng!"

"What's the matter with you? Tell me quickly!"

Zhu Chongba grasped his dragon robe with both hands and tried his best to suppress the fire in his heart.

"Go back to Your Majesty!"

Wang Zheng raised his head and saw Zhao Zheng nodding from the corner of his eye. After feeling a little relieved, he quickly followed Zhao Zheng's prompts and said what he wanted.

"After the Liaodong War, there were too many armors and weapons that needed repair, and the military craftsmen in the Ministry of War could no longer bear them, so some of them were transferred to our Ministry of Industry."

"However, according to the Ministry of Industry, the ages of the iron-making blast furnaces vary widely. Some were cast before King Wu and some were cast in recent years. The veteran is also helpless."

"I specifically request that Your Majesty can allocate funds, send more manpower, and update the blast furnace!"

Emperor Zhu Chongba, who was sitting on the throne, heard that the quality of the iron-making blast furnaces in the Ministry of Industry was so uneven, coupled with the importance of the army in his heart.

Therefore, he was immediately moved and prepared to nod.

"Then..."

"Your Majesty! There is not much money left in the national treasury. After spring, we still need to provide for travel..."

Lu Shang, the Minister of the Ministry of Finance, quickly stood up and interrupted his heroic speech.

"Cough cough!"

Thinking of the trip, Lao Zhu felt a little embarrassed for a moment.

After all, traveling would definitely cost a lot of money, and in his mind, it was a bit extravagant.

As a result, he now collided with the matter of updating the iron-making blast furnace. He could not just let go of either side.

"Wang Aiqing, how much does it cost the Ministry of Industry to renew the iron-making blast furnace?"

"Your Majesty, it's about two million taels!"

"Then..."

When Zhu Chongba heard this number, he just raised his hand and said that it was okay, and then agreed.

"what!"

Wang Zheng made a one-two gesture in a friendly manner, and Lu Shangque on the side was immediately upset. Even the emperor Zhu Chongba, who was sitting on the dragon throne, couldn't interrupt if he wanted to.

"The total amount of craftsman materials and other expenses required by the Ministry of Industry for one year is only more than six million taels. You need one-third of the money all at once, and you won't be able to make it through next year!"

"You! What! What do you mean you can't make it through next year! Is that money embezzled by our Ministry of Works? This is what is actually needed! If you don't believe it, send the abacus figures from your Ministry of Accounts over to see for yourself!"

The Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Household Affairs, one earns money and the other keeps it, have been in opposition since their inception.

So at this moment, even if the two of them had a good relationship, they started to have sex in the court.

"The abacus maker!!! Without the abacus maker under me, our dynasty's family fortune would have been completely destroyed by those hammer-wielding ones from your Ministry of Industry!"

"Those who wield hammers!!! Without the hammer-wielding guys under me, you wouldn't even have the use of an abacus!!!"

"You old man!"

"You old money addict!"

Seeing the two standing closer and closer, they stood closer and closer.

Zhao Zheng didn't expect this, so he quickly stepped forward to smooth things over with the others.

"Two adults, two adults! Calm down!"

"Calm down? Then, Xiaoyou Zhao, what can you do? This old money man won't approve the money for our Ministry of Works. However, the cost of your supervision is borne by the State-Owned Industry Department, and the only people who can use it are our guys from the Ministry of Works!"

Wang Zheng was anxious and directly kidnapped Zhao Zheng using reason and morality.

In other words, in fact, before Zhao Zheng said that the various facilities in the Ministry of Industry had different specifications and technologies, he had already planned to upgrade them.

After all, which craftsman would think that his eater is advanced.

"Little friend, the newly built Zhao Mansion outside the city and Dongshan Mansion were all saved by our Ministry of Revenue tightening our belts before. You must know that the national treasury was not that rich before, and the Ministry of Industry spent six million a year. A large part of the two expenses is due to building a steam engine."

When Lu Shang saw Wang Zheng kidnapping Zhao Zheng, he narrowed his eyes and what he said was even more shocking.

Directly describe Zhao Zheng as the culprit of the deficit in the Ministry of Household Affairs.

"Several dear friends."

"Stop the quarrel, stop the quarrel."

Emperor Zhu Chongba, who was sitting on the Dragon Throne, saw that Zhao Zheng had become the center of the whirlpool. He was obviously smiling from the bottom of his heart, but he still pretended to be concerned about the dispute and feebly tried to break up the fight on the high platform.

Fortunately, Zhao Zheng heard it with the tips of his ears and quickly used this as an excuse to stop the two people around him. Otherwise, people on both sides of his ears kept saying that even if he could go in with his left ear and come out with his right ear, he would still have to be stuck in traffic.

"Two adults! Your Majesty has given us a message to stop the quarrel!"

"This is a fair fight, how can it be considered a quarrel?"

Who knew that the two of them wouldn't listen at all at this time, and this reason was of no use at all.

"The lower officials have their own laws, and the lower officials have their own laws! Listen to what your lower officials have to say."

"well!"

"...???"

Only then did Zhao Zheng realize that these two people were waiting for this sentence.

Looking up, the emperor Zhu Chongba on the high platform had clearly spoken just now, but at this moment he kept his mouth tightly shut, as if he had just heard something.

It turns out that these three people relied on tacit understanding to get me together!

Fortunately, I was prepared.

"Lv Shangshu, please note that sharpening a knife does not require chopping wood. This is also the reason why the Ministry of Industry updates blast furnaces and various appliances. And you also know how much more our output has become after the steam engine."

"Wang Shangshu, as the saying goes, if a family has surplus food, it will not panic in the event of disaster. The same is true in this country. Only when the country has surplus food can it not panic in the event of disaster. Lv Shangshu must also have these considerations."

"That's the truth!"

"Then what's your solution, little friend?"

The two looked at each other after hearing this. Of course they knew this was true, but what they wanted was a solution.

However, what Zhao Zheng wanted was to calm down the atmosphere first and then come up with a solution, otherwise the two of them would explode again after hearing this.

"Use the way of the other, and return it to the other."

"In other ways?"

"Also give it to him?"

Wang Zheng and Lu Shang looked at each other, neither of them understood how to operate, so they could only let Zhao Zheng continue to explain.

"There is money and goods in Taicang, the national treasury. Why do we use silver instead when we talk about surplus?"

"The answer lies in the relationship of equivalent exchange of money, food and goods."

"Equivalent exchange?"

Combining the previous words, Lu Shang understood the meaning instantly, so he turned to look at Wang Zheng next to him. The hostility in his eyes disappeared, replaced by deep calculation.

"Then the Ministry of Finance will give you the money!"

"Old Wang, if two million taels are converted into cloth, it happens to be the output of your Ministry of Industry in the first half of this year. It shouldn't be too difficult for you, right?"

But Wang Zheng hadn't thought about it yet. He first heard Lu Shang saying that he wanted to give him money, and then he forced a smile on his face. But in the next sentence, he heard that the other party asked for his cloth, or half a year's output. His smile Stiff.

"The output of the Ministry of Industry is necessary for each department, and they are all given to you to complement each other. What about others?"

Seeing that he didn't understand, Zhao Zheng patted his forehead helplessly and quickly gave a warm reminder.

"Master Wang, what Master Lu wants is not the cloth we supply to each department, but the additional cloth we produce, so that we can repay their money."

"What! Pay back the money!"

Wang Zheng couldn't hear these two words the most, so he almost exploded.

"It's not about paying back the money, it's about paying back the money by giving back the cloth! Mr. Wang, have you forgotten how much free time we have with the steam engines in the Ministry of Industry? As long as we make good use of it, aren't we printing money ourselves?"

"What! Print money!" This exclamation was whispered by Wang Zheng.

"Printing money? Yes, we can let..."

But who knew that Zhu Chongba on the dragon throne still heard it, and he even spoke. He felt that he was so inspired now, why he hadn't thought of printing money before.

But halfway through, he felt a cold air coming towards him. After seeing where it was coming from, he had to shut up quickly.

"That's right. Cloth in the hands of our Ministry of Industry is just cloth, but when you enter Taicang, the Ministry of Revenue, you can exchange it for money."

"Hahaha!"

"Old Lu!" "Old Wang!"

On the other side, the two old men just reconciled.

Only the emperor Zhu Chongba on the dragon throne was confused. He didn't hear anything just now. How could the two of them be fine?

But that's fine, just ask them to hand in a memorial later.

The layer of cold sweat hanging on his back at the moment was what he wanted to deal with most.

……

"Sister, you don't know what happened in the court today!"

"What's wrong? What caused the omnipotent Emperor to break his own rules again today?"

"...Sister, just listen to me."

"Today we saw that the treasury was empty, so we proposed to print more treasure banknotes, but before I could say anything, the current head of the Zhao family stared at us with a dead look! We have seen too many dead people, because if I say a word like this, , it’s the first time I’ve seen someone who feels like he’s about to die!”

"No, it's not the first time..."
