Chapter 60 My Money! ! !
In March of the eighth year of Yuanfeng (the tenth day of the lunar new year), the two palaces issued an imperial edict in the name of Zhao Xu.

On the grounds that the new king ascends the throne and the whole world celebrates, rewards are given to the officials in front of the palace, the relative officials of the imperial city, and the relatives of the big inner circle.

This is a custom handed down from the late Tang Dynasty.

In the Five Dynasties, the imperial army rewarded money, but it was a little less, or even just a few days late.

Qiu Ba and others dared to ask for rewards with knives.

Although Da Song is no longer worried that the imperial army will rebel.

However, this tradition has been kept, and it has become a practice until now.

Whenever a new king ascends the throne, he will be rewarded by all the officials in front of the palace.

Because he wanted a reward, on this day, the Queen Mother brought Zhao Xu to the property left by his father—a huge palace building located north of Yanhe Hall.

Prepare to open the treasure house left by the Emperor Daxing, and take some of it directly as a reward.

Shi Deyi, as the most trustworthy Diao Dang of Emperor Daxing during his lifetime, personally opened the gate of the palace called Jingfu Palace.

Zhao Xu followed behind the Queen Mother, and with a trembling heart, stepped into the building complex with the highest concentration of wealth in the world.

Yes!

It's the whole world!

Not only the Liao, Song, Western Xia, Qingtang, Tubo, Cochin, Chenla, Japan, Koryo, the known world of the Song Dynasty.

But the whole world!
"I am Emperor Taizu. I was born in the army. Since I ascended the throne, I have set my ambition to restore Youyan!"

"Therefore, the treasuries of the rebellious countries such as the Southern Tang Dynasty and the Later Shu Dynasty were used to collect the treasures in Da Nei, as a seal of money!"

"At the beginning, 200 million bolts of silk and silk, and tens of millions of gold, silver and copper coins, I thought they would be used to reward the warriors of the army when they returned to Youyan in the future!"

As Shi Deyi walked, he introduced the origin of the internal treasury to the Queen Mother and everyone.

"However, there is no holiday in the sky, and the ambition is not rewarded, so I will be promoted to immortality... From then on, the treasures sealed in the inner treasury will be transferred to Zuo Zang..."

"After Emperor Daxing ascended the throne, he had the ambition of his ancestors, and wanted to build his homeland behind the mountains!"

"So, imitating the story of Taizu, rebuild Jingfu Hall in this palace!"

"Collect the world's wealth, silk, gold and silver, and put them into the emperor's internal treasury, thinking of it as military expenses!"

"So, the imperial pen personally wrote an imperial poem..."

"Five seasons have lost their solidity, and they are ignorant and ignorant. The ancestor of art Zhaobang, thinking of punishing AI. Set up the inner mansion, based on recruiting scholars. The great-grandson guards it, dare to forget the aspirations!" Zhao Xu whispered in his heart, the imperial poem written by his father.

Shi Deyi in front of him also bowed and said: "Emperor Daxing said in a poem: Five seasons are lost, and you are ignorant. Kong Chi. The ancestor of art Zhaobang, thinking of punishing AI. Set up an inner government to recruit scholars. Great-grandson guards it, dare to forget Juezhi!"

"There are 32 characters in imperial poems, so Emperor Daxing built 32 inner treasuries here to collect gold, silver and copper coins from all over the world for future expenses!"

As soon as Shi De said that, he walked to a warehouse, took out a copper talisman, and compared it with the copper talisman in the hand of a courtier guarding in front of the warehouse.

The latter immediately stepped forward respectfully, and opened the pile seal vault of Emperor Daxing on behalf of the emperor and the queen mother.

On the gate, there is a big five characters.

This means that it is the first of the Emperor 32 Neiku in the Xining era.

The door of the library opened, and the yellow, orange, and golden colors of the hall came into view.

All gold!

Ingot after ingot!
There are probably two or three thousand ingots of gold in this warehouse alone.

Each ingot of gold should weigh 50 taels.

Here is 10,000+ taels of gold!
Don't feel less!
How much does Dasong Gold produce in a year?
Zhao Xu remembered that in his previous life, the highest gold production was in the fourth year of Shaosheng.

In that year, there was a report from a department that a total of 1000 taels of gold produced by metallurgy, mines and their methods were handed over to the state treasury, breaking the record since Zhao Xu ascended the throne. Therefore, Zhao Xu also issued a special edict to reward the relevant supervisors.

And here, the gold reserve in this warehouse is worth more than a dozen Shaosheng's four-year treasury gold income.

"The first four treasuries, the five quarters lost their solidity, and they all store gold, thinking that they will reward the generals in the future for their meritorious service!" Shi Deyi said softly.

Zhao Xu looked at the gold in front of him, which was full of gold.

He gently shook hands.

In his previous life, after he took over the government, the wealth left to him by his father had already been consumed continuously in the Yuanyou era.

Especially gold and silver, only a little bit left.

The rest were spent in tossing.

In the Yuanyou era, policies were repeated, back and forth.

The Empress Dowager herself is very concerned about saving face, and she reduces or exempts local taxes at every turn.

When Zhao Xu was in charge, his father was in the Xining and Yuanfeng eras, he was reluctant to eat, he was reluctant to wear clothes, and the accumulated family fortune was only 1000 million guan.

What Zhao Xu was most dissatisfied with was that he had never seen such wealth before taking office!
The money his father left him!
My money! ! ! !

You just left me 1000 million coins? !

Do I still need to thank you? !
Today, Zhao Xu followed the Empress Dowager Xiang into these warehouses more than nine years earlier.

his money!
The family property that his father had worked so hard to save!
Finally, he can hold it in his hand!
At least, if others want to use it now, they have to ask him and Queen Mother Xiang.

Otherwise, don't even think about going out for a copper plate here!
……

There are 32 warehouses in Xining, the first four warehouses store gold, and the last twelve warehouses store silver.

The rest are full of copper coins, copper ingots, ivory, spices, and silk cloth!
Zhao Xu and Empress Dowager Xiang just inspected it casually, and it took them a full hour to finish it.

As for the amount of related treasury money, it needs to be inspected by the Ministry of Internal Affairs to know.

But according to Shi Deyi's estimation, the gold alone is probably no less than 80 taels, and the silver is no less than 200 million taels!
Copper coins, copper ingots, ivory, incense medicine, silk cloth and other properties are worth at least 3000 million guan!
And that's not the end.

Shi Deyi led the Empress Dowager Xiang and Zhao Xu across the first gate of Jingfu Hall, and then through a south-facing corridor.

A brand-new warehouse group comes into view here.

"After Xining, all 32 treasuries were full, so Emperor Daxing ordered his ministers to wait in the south of Jingfu Hall and set up additional treasuries to store Yuanfeng's wealth!"

Shi Deyi still introduced.

"Emperor Daxing, make a poem again and inscribe it for the Yuanfeng treasure house!"

Of course Zhao Xu knew.

He whispered softly in his heart: "Be vigilant every day and night, and recklessly obey the karma. If Gu Yu doesn't have a martial posture, when will he become a hero?"

Shi Deyi beside him also bowed and said reverently: "Every day, be vigilant and follow the legacy. Gu Yu doesn't have a martial posture, when will he become a hero?"

"The first five treasuries, imitating the story of Xining, all store gold, while the last five treasuries store silver, and the rest are copper coins, silk, jiaozi, ivory, spices..."

"Although the Five Routes Attacked Xia, the Battle of Yongle City, and other large and small wars, guiding Luotong to Bian, rebuilding Bianjing, etc., the internal treasury spent a lot of money..."

"However, these twenty treasuries are still almost full!"

As soon as Shi De said that, he knelt down and kowtowed to the Queen Mother and Zhao Xu, and said, "During Emperor Daxing's lifetime, he had only three or five pieces of regular clothes, and his daily use was only a few thousand. He hadn't made a single incense burner in the three years of the ban, and the imperial officials used it. They were all bought by my ministers from Daxiangguo Temple and Donghua Gate, but the common people's things are also..."

"Emperor Daxing worked hard, thinking day and night, and saving in every possible way. In the past 19 years, he has been doing this every day!"

"Leaving this billions of trillions of wealth is to save for future generations and prepare for the future!"

"May the empress, everyone, know the deep meaning of the Emperor Daxing!"

"The old minister bows again!"

So, even the Queen Mother was moved to tears.

She remembered that her husband was indeed very frugal in food and clothing during his lifetime.

After his death, the imperial objects were taken out from the Funing Palace. Except for those imperial objects that were presented every year by the Ministry of Internal Affairs according to the system, there were only three or five extra exquisite objects, and the rest were ordinary people's objects.

Zhao Xu looked at all kinds of treasures piled up like mountains in each treasure house.

It's all his money!
My money!
In his eyes, there was a bright light.

This money can no longer be spent indiscriminately.

It's all useful, very useful!
