I was the emperor in the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 945 Surprise again and again
"Most of them naturally need to be handed over to the imperial court to fill the treasury.

But after all, this is the credit of all of us, so I promise everyone here that I will apply like my father and leave [-]% of it as a reward for everyone. "

As soon as they heard that the prince actually came forward to help everyone win this reward, everyone couldn't help but became excited.

But Zhu Zhanji's next words dampened everyone's enthusiasm a little bit.

He went on to say,

"It's just that, even if it's 60%, based on Ma Dazhong's current wealth, it's at least [-] million taels.

Such a large amount of rewards is not said to exist in history, and even if there is, it is very rare.

Therefore, if all this money is really regarded as a reward, someone designated by the court will make irresponsible remarks.

But we actually have a compromise.

That is, let's take out 10 taels as the basic reward.

We can use part of the remaining money as a reward for meritorious deeds in the process of clearing water pirates.

This way, everyone has a chance to get rewarded twice.

At that time, even if we get far more rewards than before, the imperial court will have nothing to say! "

Everyone nodded after hearing what Zhu Zhanji said.

Zhu Zhanji's idea is also very good.

All of a sudden, he changed the reward that was originally only once into two, so that everyone would have the opportunity to get double the reward.

But all of a sudden, it was twice as much as the previous estimate of 10 taels.

But even so, there is still a huge number of more than 140 million taels left, which has not been used.

Others are embarrassed to ask how to use the money, but Chen Hong is the longest follower of Zhu Zhanji.

There is nothing wrong with asking this little question.

"Your Highness, what are you going to do with the remaining money?"

Zhu Zhanji smiled slightly at this time,
"I know, you guys will ask."

He paused for a moment, and then said to the crowd,
"In this incident, the reason why we were able to win the staged victory so easily is mainly because Captain Yang and others went all out.

They do the hardest and most dangerous things.

It is said that their salaries are also the highest among you, but I still absolutely give them an extra 10 taels of reward.

Without them, it would be impossible for us to defeat Ma Dazhong, a big thief, this time. "

Everyone nodded, thinking that such a distribution is reasonable.

After all, Yang Suwen and the others are obvious to all whether it is their ability or their contribution in this matter, and more rewards should be given.

Everyone had no objection, but Yang Suwen stood up and said,
"His Royal Highness, the next officials, the modern brothers, thank you for your kindness.

But we're not going to take that money.

As you said, His Royal Highness, our salary is the highest among them. Even for an ordinary team member, Yuefeng is more than five or six times that of ordinary soldiers.

It is more than enough to meet daily expenses.

Besides, this kind of thing is what we people should do, and it really can't be called any credit. "

Yang Suwen's resolute decision made Zhu Zhanji slightly stunned.

He smiled awkwardly, knowing that Yang Su's question was not finished, so he didn't continue to speak.

Yang Suwen really had something to say, he continued,
"But the kindness of His Royal Highness, the lower officials can't just refuse like this.

How about this, His Highness can use the money to organize a charitable hall in Nanjing City to take in homeless orphans, orphans and the like.

This can be regarded as a small good deed done by the lower officials and brothers for the city of Nanjing! "

Hearing what Yang Su asked, everyone's expressions were different.

Some people think that Yang Su asked the real guy if he was too lofty, and it's fine if you don't accept the reward, but everyone still wants it.

Once you do this, it will suddenly appear how heartless we are.

But there are also people who agree with the approach of Yang Suwen and others.

They are indeed like Yang Suwen said, they are not short of money to spend, not to mention that everyone's salary is very high, and almost every time they go on a mission, there will be special allowances.

In fact, they don't have to worry about food, clothing, housing and transportation when they are on missions. In this way, the significance of this reward is not very great.

But if, like Yang Suwen, the money is used in charitable organizations like Shantang, for those homeless children and widowed elderly, it is equivalent to an extra chance of survival.

It is a good thing to accumulate great virtue.

Zhu Zhanji finally looked much better this time, and he also agreed with Yang Suwen's approach from the bottom of his heart.

But at the same time, he also knew that things like shantang were actually very difficult to deal with.

Corruption is also where most often occurs.

If there is no one trustworthy person to take care of this matter all year round, I am afraid that all the 10 taels of silver will be lost, and it may not be able to help many people.

So he glanced over the crowd, and found Wang Cheng in a corner who was thinking about something and was in a trance.

The corner of his mouth twitched slightly, and he had an idea in his mind.

He called Wang Cheng over.

"Wang Cheng, you have made a lot of contributions this time. I promised you earlier that if you want to be an official after this matter is over, I can arrange for you to become an official." Take it easy officer.

What are you thinking about now. "

Wang Cheng seemed to be thinking about his future.

Suddenly being asked by Zhu Zhanji, he didn't panic.

He shook his head slightly and said,

"The villain thanked His Highness here first, I still remember this matter, but the villain has thought about it carefully, let's forget about it, the villain has no ink in his stomach, he is not suitable for being an official at all, even if he is an official If he becomes an official, he is probably a corrupt official.

It's not good for everyone to tarnish your reputation, His Royal Highness, don't you think so! "

Wang Cheng said he was polite, but in fact he had another consideration in his heart.

He said that he was not expected to be an official, part of the truth, but what he considered more was that although Ma Dazhong was completely ruined, those who once took refuge in him may not all be defeated.

The prince is high above him, so no one dares to do anything to him, but if he plunged into this quagmire, those guys might not know how to deal with him.

It is impossible for the prince to pay attention to himself and help himself all the time, and he may be the one who will suffer in the future.

On the contrary, it's better to use the money I have accumulated over the years to do some small business honestly, and feel comfortable being a rich man safely.
