I am not a deposed emperor of Han Dynasty

Chapter 138 That's My Money! ! ! (seeking subscription)

The shore of the land is the land of the king; the ministers of the land are the ministers of the king.

The whole world belongs to the emperor, so the emperor is naturally the richest person.

This is why Liu He is not in a hurry to make money.

As the Son of Heaven, Liu He has a lot of money, which is beyond anyone's imagination.

……

All the taxes and taxes of the Han Empire are managed by three government offices, one is Shaofu, the other is Da Si Nong, and the third is Shuiheng Duwei.

The money in the hands of Shaofu belongs to the emperor's private use, the money in the hands of Da Si Nong is the state's public expenditure, and the captain of Shuiheng is in charge of coinage.

The sources of the three are different, and their uses are different. They must be strictly distinguished and will never be confused.

Dasinong's income includes all kinds of taxes other than oral calculations, income from salt and iron monopoly, profit from equalization, output from imperial land and income from the sale of titles by the imperial court.

The bulk of the expenditures are the salaries of officials in Chang'an, the cost of large-scale construction projects, the cost of employing and raising soldiers, the expenses of national festivals and ceremonies, and so on.

The income of the Shaofu includes taxes on merchants, various products of mountains, rivers, lakes and seas, the 3 qian koufu paid by people aged 14 to 20, the output of royal land, and the gold donated by princes and kings every year.

The main expenses are the expenses of the utensils needed for the operation of the court, the expenses of the emperor's empress, concubines, palace servants and close servants, the expenses of the emperor's rewards for important officials, etc.

As for the Shuiheng Duwei, it was the government office of the Han Empire that was responsible for making five baht coins, and the five baht coins produced were also at the disposal of the Shaofu.

Roughly calculated, in the annual income of the Great Han Empire, Da Si Nong accounted for [-]%, Shao Fu accounted for [-]%, and Shui Heng Duwei accounted for [-]%.

Calculated from the money, grain, cloth and silk received by the three government offices every year, the income of the Dasinong is about 30 billion yuan, and the income of the Shaofu is about one billion yuan. million dollars.

In a normal year, more than half of this income would be spent, and the remaining half would be saved for a rainy day.

After Emperor Xiaozhao came to the throne, no matter what year, the surplus money of Dasinong remained at about 40 billion yuan, and the surplus money of Shaofu was about 20 billion yuan.

The price of a dendrobium millet is only around [-] renminbi, the price of a piece of silk is only [-] renminbi, and the price of a cow is only [-] renminbi...

Shaofu's 20 billion yuan is an astronomical figure!
Moreover, this number is still growing every year.

Even in an eventful autumn like this year, when the Son of Heaven is on the rise, the new emperor ascends the throne, and the expenses of the Dasinong and the Shaofu are very large, the amount of surplus money is still not affected too much.

The 800 million yuan in Changyi Kingdom's books is nothing but a drop in the bucket.

There is absolutely no problem with so much money being used to fight a big battle.

……

Some of these trivial figures were written down by Liu He when he was reading books before, and the other part was learned from Shaofu Lecheng recently.

Liu He, the "puppet emperor", wants soldiers without soldiers, and people without people, but he needs money and money.

When he was the king of Changyi, Liu He tossed the entire Changyi country upside down for the 800 million money that those corrupt officials and officials had corrupted, and he was always thinking about how to make money.

However, a few days ago, when Liu He learned about the entire family background of the Shaofu from Le Cheng, he realized that his situation had not been opened.

As long as the annual income of billions of dollars is not used to build palaces and cities, it is impossible to use it up.

There is no need to take such a risk.

Liu He doesn't want to make money by selling farm tools, let alone by making wine and making vinegar.

On the contrary, Liu He has to learn how to spend money instead.

Spend money to let the people use free farm tools, and spend money to let the people make more money.

If the Great Han Empire is a business, then Liu He is the richest man who has grown this business.

Why does the biggest rich man have to go to the shop to compete with the servants for a small profit?
As for those wealthy landlords who made a lot of money, Liu He naturally had a way to restrict and deal with them.

Earn money standing up, this is what the emperor of the Han Dynasty has to do.

What's more, the money is taken from the people and used for the people. The money is originally intended to be used back on the people.

This is why Liu He dared to say "more rewards".

……

As soon as the emperor finished saying that he wanted to offer a big reward, the eyes of the princes in the court cast over.

In the previous court meeting, the princes knew that the emperor is a generous person and he will never be soft on the matter of rewards.

"I have decided that each soldier will be rewarded with two horses of silk, and the rewards will be doubled for each rank of captain, commander, and even captain."

A piece of silk is worth about 15 yuan, and each of the 500 soldiers is worth [-] yuan for two silks, totaling [-] million yuan.

In addition, the rewards for officers at all levels must be doubled at least.

In this way, the emperor rewarded 3000 million coins with a wave of his big hand.

Although this is only a drop in the bucket in the Shaofu's money, it is still an astronomical figure for the princes Gun Gun who were present.

Two bolts of cloth per person, plus five hundred dollars, is already a generous reward for the soldiers on the front line.

There has never been such a big reward without a fight.

So, in the proclamation room, some people were unwilling.

"Your Majesty...Your Majesty, the rewards for this trip are too heavy. There are words in "Zuo Zhuan", but Xiaohui has not been repeated..." Yang Chang stood up tremblingly, shaking his head and said.

Liu He has read "Zuo Zhuan" and is familiar with it.

These few sentences quoted by Yang Chang come from the "Cao Gui Controversy" in "Zuo Zhuan".

Liu He secretly smiled, and wanted to debate the scriptures with me, do you deserve it too? !

A few days ago, I gave a big reward in the court, didn't you, Yang Chang, also smile happily?
Why can the princes in the court get it, but the bleeding soldiers on the front line can't get it?

It's nothing more than that many people in the Sangong Jiuqing don't regard the soldiers as people like themselves.

Yang Chang quoted the scriptures and talked endlessly, some officials also nodded frequently, and the whispering voice became louder and louder.

Liu He first glanced carefully at Huo Guang, and then at Zhao Chongguo, both of them were somewhat dissatisfied with Yang Chang's inappropriate remarks.

At this moment, Liu He understood in his heart that he was standing with Huo Guang and the others.

In this case, you can borrow flowers to offer Buddha.

"Ahem! The prime minister spoke too fast, I couldn't hear you clearly enough." Liu He said with his ears out, as if he really didn't hear clearly.

"Ah, ah, this..." Yang Chang spoke dryly and didn't know how to answer for a while.

"Just now, the prime minister said that these rewards from me are small favors, which will make those who have not received them feel dissatisfied, so it should not be too heavy?"

"The old minister does have this intention."

"A few days ago, I rewarded you with five hundred pieces of gold, three thousand horses, and two thousand households in the city. Why didn't the prime minister say it was a small favor at that time?"

"Does the prime minister think that my reward is a small favor, or does he think that soldiers who bleed should not be rewarded?"

When Liu He said these words, there was always an innocent smile on his face, and there was a trace of innocence in his eyes that didn't know much about the world.

He didn't seem to be questioning, but more like asking questions.

Yang Chang, who was already in his sixtieth year, did not expect the emperor to ask such a question, his mouth half-opened, and he froze on the spot, not knowing how to respond?

He seemed to have forgotten to breathe, and his face became redder and redder.

"This, this...then, that..." Yang Chang faltered, but did not say why.

oppressive rule.

Liu He has not forgotten that the famous "Zou Abandoning the King of Changyi" in history was written by Yang Chang.

On weekdays, the leader of the hundred officials should take on the role of setting an example for the officials. He is obedient and dares not stand up to Huo Guang, how can he convince the officials.

Liu He admired Tai Shigong, but he didn't look up to his virtuous son-in-law at all.Then don't blame yourself for taking this opportunity to beat you up to establish your prestige.

"If the prime minister hasn't figured it out yet, then sit back and think about it first."

People who don't get angry at ordinary times show anger occasionally, which is the most frightening, let alone the wrath of the emperor.

Yang Chang was forced to ask questions and had nothing to say, so he sat back dejectedly.

Liu He looked at the officials again, and said with a wave of his hand, "I have made up my mind. The soldiers are bleeding on the front line. I can't follow them personally. Naturally, money and things can't be harsh. Even small favors come from my sincerity. If there is any criticism, I am willing to bear it alone!"

"Below the imperial edict, who is different among you gentlemen?"

The princes have already seen Yang Chang's embarrassment, no one is willing to follow in his footsteps, naturally no one will stand up to object again.

Liu He saw that Huo Guang looked normal, Zhao Chongguo looked happy, and even Fan Mingyou's expression softened a little.

Xiao Chaoyi is getting more and more interesting.
