Prince of Chaos

Chapter 444 Arrangement

Zhu Changluo brought the topic back to the original question.

Zhu Changluo said: "We've almost talked about open source, now let's talk about the current predicament. Right now, the Ministry of Accounting still has no money, what should we do about this problem?"

Zhu Changluo looked at Shen Shixing and the other three.

These three were extremely embarrassed by Zhu Changluo's view. Although they had discussed a lot of open source methods just now, it would take time for these methods to see results.

However, what is lacking now is time.

The battlefield waits for no one, and the army is consumed there every moment, so the court will not be given too much time to hesitate.

Shen Shixing didn't speak, and Wang Xijue didn't speak either. This question was really too difficult.

In the end, Wang Jiaping could only hold back and said: "Your Highness, otherwise, follow the previous practice and pay the money from the emperor's internal funds first. When the money from the household department is collected, it will be returned."

Zhu Changluo almost rolled his eyes when he heard Wang Jiaping's words. Can you believe this?Zhu Changluo didn't dare to bring these words to Emperor Wanli.

From the Battle of Ningxia to the present, the imperial court has taken a lot of money from Emperor Wanli's internal funds, but is there any money to turn back?
Now we have to continue to use the money from Emperor Wanli's internal funds to fill it in. Can Emperor Wanli bear it?All that money was saved by him through hard work.

They are all his lifeblood!

Zhu Changluo replied lightly: "Father's internal money is also difficult."

Wang Jiaping replied in embarrassment: "It's because I didn't think carefully."

Looking at the embarrassed Wang Jiaping, Zhu Changluo said: "Actually speaking of this, Gu also has an immature idea. Maybe it can solve the immediate urgent need."

Shen Shixing's eyes lit up.

Wang Xijue asked first, "What can your Highness do?"

Zhu Changluo looked at the three of them and said, "Gu's Xishan Huangzhuang still has some surplus, but this is against the rules. Besides, father is still helping Gu to look at the accounts of Xishan Huangzhuang, and the money is not easy to move."

The eyes of the three were really bright, they really didn't expect the money from Xishan Huangzhuang.

How rich Xishan Huangzhuang is, Jingzhong has been guessing constantly for these years.

It's just because of face, everyone didn't put this topic on the bright side.

Now, since Zhu Changluo proposed it on his own initiative, it means that Xishan Huangzhuang must also have money.

Shen Shixing said: "Your Highness, there is no need to worry too much. Xishan Huangzhuang is your private Huangzhuang, and its nature is the same as the emperor's internal funds. Your Highness can refer to the old rules of the emperor's internal funds to borrow money from the Ministry of Households. After the silver, I will pay back to His Highness."

Hearing Shen Shixing's words, Zhu Changluo hummed in his heart, he is not a fool, how could he believe such nonsense.

The reason why Zhu Changluo took the initiative to mention Xishanhuangzhuang was because his next plan would use Xishanhuangzhuang.

But this does not mean that Zhu Changluo will be taken advantage of.

Once, Xishan Huangzhuang also lent money to the Ministry of Households without a bottom line like the internal money of Emperor Wanli.

Not to mention the future, the financial system of Ming Dynasty will be corrupted every minute, and they will definitely no longer try to increase the income of the household department when they take office in the future. , Anyway, there is no need to pay back, how nice.

This is clearly not a healthy and sustainable financial situation.

Therefore, Zhu Changluo continued: "It's not right. Xishan Huangzhuang is a private village of Gu, but it also supports the livelihood of tens of thousands of people. Once Gu takes out the money, it will cause Xishanhuang The turbulence of the people in the village is not a trivial matter. Therefore, this method is not appropriate, "

Zhu Changluo directly blocked the opening.

Anyway, Zhu Changluo would definitely not do the matter of giving money directly.

After Shen Shixing and others heard what Zhu Changluo said, they also sighed regretfully. The crown prince was right. Xishan Huangzhuang now supports nearly half of the population of the capital. Although many people did not work in Huangzhuang, they More or less work has indirect or other related relationship with Xishan Huangzhuang.

It is true that Xishan Huangzhuang cannot be moved lightly. Once there is a mistake, it may really directly cause turmoil in the capital.

No one present could afford this crime.

Zhu Changluo looked at the worried Big Three, and he said, "Xishan Huangzhuang should not be moved lightly, but the opinions of the elders just now gave Gu a lot of inspiration. Perhaps, Gu already has a way to solve the money problem. "

Shen Shixing and others immediately asked, "What is your Highness?"

Zhu Changluo said: "This method may be a bit unconventional, and it needs the support of the three elders."

When Shen Shixing heard Zhu Changluo's answer, the three of them hesitated a little.

Finally, Shen Shixing gritted his teeth and said, "As long as it does not violate the laws of the country, I will definitely support it."

Zhu Changluo said: "The old man's words are serious, how could Gu think of violating the national law. It's just that this method is different."

Hearing that Zhu Changluo said that it would not violate the national law, the emotions of the three finally calmed down.

The three said in unison: "Please speak, Your Highness."

Zhu Changluo said: "The name of this method is: national debt!"

"National debt?"

This new word made the three people present a little confused. Literally, the three people seemed to understand the meaning of the word.

But how do you do it?This is a bit out of line for the three of them.

Zhu Changluo explained: "National debt, as the name suggests, is the debt borrowed by the imperial court. Take the Korean War as an example. The imperial court fought against Japanese pirates in North Korea. Food, grass and armaments were a huge expenditure. This expenditure was also a huge sum for the imperial court. It is undoubtedly difficult for the court to bear such a large burden in a short period of time. Therefore, Gu means to issue national debt based on the credit of the court. The period can be divided into three years and five years , ten years, etc. After the national debt expires, the people who buy the national debt will be dealt with rigidly by the court and will be paid a certain amount of interest. What do the three gentlemen think?"

After Shen Shixing and the three listened to Zhu Changluo's discussion on the national debt, the three fell into deep thought.

Subconsciously, the three of them thought that there was nothing wrong with the national debt.

However, the dignified court has to live on borrowed money, which may damage the prestige of the court.And, more importantly, the imperial court has no income at all, who would buy the imperial court's national debt?

Obviously, the difficulty of this national debt is a bit big.

Shen Shixing hesitated for a long time, and then said: "This method is somewhat."

Shen Shixing couldn't tell what was wrong.

Zhu Changluo looked at their hesitation and understood what they meant, they were just worried about the credibility of the court.

Therefore, Zhu Changluo said: "Since it is a national debt, then this is a matter for the court. Since it is a matter for the court, then Gu is obliged to do so. Gu is willing to use the income of Xishan Huangzhuang in the next five years as a mortgage to guarantee 300 million taels of silver for the court. However, Gu also has a condition, that is, Gu Xishan Huangzhuang must participate in the management of the national debt.”

After Shen Shixing and others heard Zhu Changluo's words, the three of them looked at each other again, and then said: "With the guarantee of Xishan Huangzhuang, the national debt matter can be implemented safely. The ministers have no objection."

Zhu Changluo said happily: "Okay, let's discuss the details of the national debt. After the details are determined, this matter will be handled by the cabinet and the Ministry of Household Affairs, and the isolated Xishan Huangzhuang will be a third-party supervisor."

The three of them heard that the power was once again in the hands of the cabinet, and they didn't think about the court's prestige anymore. After all, only with money can they manage the country better.

So, the three of them were pleasantly surprised again: "I obey the order!"
