Chapter 594 Money

Hearing Yue Shan ask him where the money was spent, Chen Yu exaggeratedly said: "My dean, others don't know the cost of firewood and rice if they are not in charge, but you don't know the cost of firewood and rice if you are in charge. The building materials don't cost money. There are also uniforms and weapons, all of which cost money.”

"How much does it cost? My big house only cost a few hundred..." Yue Shan's voice became softer the more he said, the 'small house' in his own house needed hundreds of dollars of money and food, not to mention that it was a huge Yamen agency.

There are also uniforms, all of which are made of high-quality fabrics, and the cost of casting lancets is not cheap.One thousand guan is really not enough to spend.

In the end, he could only say helplessly: "Okay, one thousand guan is really not much. Tell me how much more you need. I will go to the Ministry of Households tomorrow."

"This time, it will be longer and more accurate. I will come here once. At the end of the year, the household department is also making settlements. It would be disgusting to ask for money every three days."

"I've already figured it out. It takes another [-] guan to complete all the current work." Chen Yu took out a thin booklet and said.

Yue Shan took the booklet and flipped through it, and found that it was an account book, which listed items that needed to be spent.

For example, what is the quotation of the Ministry of Industry for a set of uniforms, how many sets of six doors are needed, and how much is the total cost.

Every stroke was calculated clearly and clearly at a glance, and the final total was [-] guan.

Yue Shan nodded in satisfaction, he likes such clear and clear accounts, which can withstand investigation, and he is justified in going to the household department to ask for money.

"Okay, tomorrow I will ask Qi Shangshu for money."

After waiting for a while and seeing that he didn't intend to leave, Yue Shan asked curiously: "Is there anything else?"

"I have a suggestion, I don't know if I should say it or not?" Chen Yu said.

"Then don't talk about it." Yue Shan said angrily.

Chen Yu shook his head with a wry smile, and apologized: "It's the subordinate's fault, let me tell you straight. Our six sects should have our own property, and it's not a good idea to rely entirely on the Ministry of Households appropriation."

Yue Shan shook his head and directly denied: "No."

Chen Yu said unconvinced: "Why? There are so many yamen making a living, why can't we."

"Although the six gates are not an army, they are not very different in nature from the army. The headquarters is still next to the Yong'an Palace. Do you think we have both the handle of the knife and the money bag? Is the saint at ease? Is Chaowen Wu at ease? "Yue Shan asked back.

Chen Yu immediately reacted, and said in shame, "It's because I considered the problem too one-sidedly, and the dean forgives me."

"The Chaotang is not an academy. If there is a mistake in the academy, there is still a chance to make up for it. If the Chaotang makes a mistake, it will be double heaven. You have to be careful in the future." Yue Shan said.

"Thank you, Dean, for your guidance, and the students wrote it down." Chen Yu said gratefully.

"But you also reminded me that Six Gates is not an army after all, and many things are really inconvenient without a small treasury. How about this, you plan to open inns in major cities and towns across the country. First, you can make money, and second, you can give us provide a resting place."

Yue Shan pondered for a while and said, "I'll write a booklet to the saint later, saying that these inns are for the convenience of our Anzi to collect and transmit information."

"Okay, I'll do the planning now." Chen Yu said happily.

After he left, Yue Shan thought about the plan for the inn by himself, then wrote a memorial and put it in his arms before going into the palace.

Li Shimin's permission was required to get money from the household department, and his consent was also required for the inn, so the two things were handled together.

Now it is very convenient for him to go to the palace. When he exits the door, turn left and there is the Nine Immortals Gate, where the Hanlin Academy and other departments are located. Through this gate, he can directly enter the Zichen Palace to meet Li Shimin.

Generally, when a courtier asks to see the emperor, he must first pass a sign outside the imperial city, and only after the emperor agrees can he be let in.The palace is so big, it takes an hour to go back and forth, which can make people anxious to death.

So there are two situations, one is not qualified to ask to see the emperor at will, as long as they can see the emperor, they are willing to wait outside the palace for a month or two.

One is to be able to see the emperor often, and will not hand over a sign to see the emperor if there is no important matter.General things are accumulated together, and they will be brought over for discussion when the court or the emperor summons them.

Yue Shan didn't have to wait outside, he had a badge for entering and leaving the palace.Showing his waist card, he went all the way to the outside of the Zichen Hall, and then let the warriors in charge go in to report.

After waiting for about a cup of tea, Zhao Meng came out to greet him in person: "Yuehou, you came at the right time. The sage just told me to find you. That's it, it saves me the trouble of going all the way."

"Haha... That's Eunuch Zhao, you don't have a lot of food." Yue Shan said with a smile: "You guys killed a deer and roasted it over there. If you go there, you might get a deer leg. Now, Probably not even the deer tail."

"Hey, that's really because I don't have a lot of food. Next time you have something delicious, you must save some for me." Zhao Meng said regretfully.

What hasn't the eunuch next to the emperor eaten?It is not an exaggeration to say that the emperor ate what they ate, this remorse was made on purpose.

Does everyone carry the sedan chair? Yue Shan doesn't discriminate against eunuchs like him.

As they spoke, the two walked together side by side seemingly casually, Yue Shan lowered his voice and said, "I don't know why the sage is looking for me?"

"It's nothing, I just haven't seen you enter the palace for a few days, I want to chat with you." Zhao Meng replied.

After getting the answer, Yue Shan heaved a sigh of relief, and slowed down a bit, preparing to open the distance naturally.

"Hmph." But at this moment, a cold snort came.

Yue Shan was startled, and guessed that someone might have caught the clue. Following the voice, he found that a middle-aged official in his early thirties was looking at the two of them with contemptuous eyes.

Seeing Yue Shan looking over, the man waved his sleeves to look disdainful, turned his head and left.

However, Yue Shan wasn't worried about what he would spread. Given the distance between the two parties, unless that person had a good ear, it would be impossible for him to hear them say yes.

Those who want to use this to inform or something are simply thinking too much.

Besides, Yue Shan never does things behind anyone's back, who in the palace doesn't know that he has a good relationship with the palace ladies of Lishi?Sun Fucai, the former great eunuch of Changsun Wugou, joined the Dizhou Navy openly and aboveboard, and even led the team to Dongsheng Shenzhou.

It is very difficult to impeach him for making friends with eunuchs, at least it is impossible before he loses Li Shimin's trust.

Yue Shan is just wondering who this person is, don't you know who I, Yue, is?Why do you pose like this?
Zhao Meng obviously understood this, and didn't show a worried expression.Seeing that Yue Shan was curious, he introduced him: "This person is Chu Suiliang, a newly promoted householder."

　There will be an update later, but it should be very late, and everyone can watch it when they wake up tomorrow morning.
