I was the emperor in the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 970
"I didn't expect that there would be such a powerful master by the prince's side, and revenge is impossible.

I hope they don't find out, the hidden money! "

Thinking of money, Hun Jianglong felt another pain in his heart.

Another difference between him and Ma Dazhong may be his attitude towards money.

Ma Dazhong is, almost never let go of the money that falls into his hands, there are not many people under him who need him to support, and the annual expenses are not too big, so he was able to accumulate a huge amount of wealth in just a few years.

But Hun Jianglong is different, he has no high-ranking officials and no prominent reputation.

If you want to win the hearts of your subordinates, you must pay real money.

It is said that there is also an income of 80 million taels per year.

But Ma Dazhong alone will divide half of them.

The remaining money will be used not only to manage various troops, but also to add warships and weapons, and to buy food.

After one year, the money left is actually very limited.

As guessed by Chen Hong and others, the maximum amount they can use for dividends and rewards is no more than 30 to [-] taels.

The money has to be shared with seven or eight leaders, military advisers and others.

Even if he is the head of the family, the real money he can get is only 5 to [-] taels a year.

He is also a boss, and he is also a hero-like figure who dominates one side.

Ma Dazhong was able to spend as much money as he could, accumulating a substantial net worth, but he could only earn a mere tens of thousands of taels of income every year.

If it is an ordinary person, it is estimated that the heart is already out of balance.

This is also the main reason why his subordinates are actively mobilizing and wanting him to stand on his own.

Who can afford to hand over half of their income to others every year?

But Hun Jianglong is just such a person who is very easy to satisfy.

Although tens of thousands of taels of silver are not even a drop in the bucket in the eyes of people like Ma Dazhong.

But for him, who used to be impoverished and didn't eat his last meal, it was already the difference between hell and heaven.

In fact, in the water village, he has nothing to spend money on.

Unlike the other bosses, he rushed to Nanjing City as soon as he had money, and he would not go back until he had spent everything.

So his money has basically been saved. Although it is not much, after a few years, there are still 10,000+ taels.

No matter how much he doesn't care about money, he still feels very upset when he thinks that his own money will soon become someone else's.

It's not good, so what can I do, rush back and fight desperately with the prince and others for a mere one hundred thousand taels of silver?

He's not that stupid yet.

Returning to the state of having nothing, he suddenly felt a lot more relaxed.

There is no pressure for thousands of brothers to eat and drink, there is no pressure from Ma Dazhong and others to oppress them, and there is no need to worry all day that the imperial army will come to clear the payment, let alone worry that other water villages will grow bigger and annex them.

He thought about it again, and it seemed that there was nothing wrong with being alone.

Thinking about it, he laughed instead,
"It's better without it, I can finally sleep peacefully."

He lay among the weeds, feeling the warm sunshine on his body, but a relaxed smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

……

A loud bang.

The tightly closed warehouse was blasted open by Chen Hong and his people for huge profits.

The scene revealed inside is very disappointing.

Previously, it was only a water village with more than [-] people, but it got more than [-] taels.

And in front of this warehouse with thousands of people, known as the most powerful water village on the river, there are only hundreds of thousands of silver (of which there are more than [-] taels of Hunjianglong's private money)!

"Just this little money? This is too shabby.

I don't know how this Hunjianglong is doing it. There are so many people under him, hundreds of warships, and only this little money is saved in the warehouse. "

At some point, Liu Yin, the military advisor who was captured, was pushed over by someone.

"You are the military division, the most intelligent person in this water village?"

Liu Yin was still in a broken mood and didn't speak.

Chen Hong continued to ask,

"You only have this little money for such a big water village, so there must be some secret warehouse!

If there is, tell me quickly, don't wait until you are sentenced to speak, the taste will keep you forever, don't you want to try it a second time? "

At this time Liu Yin finally recovered a little consciousness.

Shaking his head with a wry smile,
"No, it's all here."

"Really, you are not lying, deceive me!"

Liu Yin had a miserable face, as if he finally had a chance to vent.

He shook his head and said,
"It's this time, what's the point of lying to you.

To be honest, regardless of the large number of people in Shuizhai, no one would dare to provoke him after he has dominated the river for so many years.

But in fact, the brothers' life was not as comfortable as imagined.

Sometimes, it is even better than not letting an honest and responsible common people. "

"After a year, we still have an income of 10 taels.

But the big head is to be handed over to those dog officials in Nanjing to buy peace.

These thousands of brothers have to eat every day, and they have no strength to eat, so how can they fight.

Each of these warships cost hundreds or even thousands of taels of silver.

The money used to maintain these ships every year is not a small expense.

Leaders, big and small, get dividends every year.

This year has just started, and it is already very easy to save so much money..."

Liu Yin seemed to be endless when he said it.

Regardless of Chen Hong's impatient eyes, he continued,

"That's why we have to push the big boss to stand on his own, and stop working for those dog officials in Nanjing.

That's why we can be dazzled by a mere 1 taels of gold, and fight you recklessly.

If... If we didn't see Qian Qian's eyes open, we scattered and hid early, why did we end up in this situation.

It's all my fault, it's all because I saw that Qian's eyes opened and ruined the entire water village.

I deserve to die, let me die, let me make amends to the brothers in Shuizhai..."

Seeing that the more he talked, Chen Hong became more and more excited, like an angry little daughter-in-law, making a fuss, which made him even more upset.

He went up and slapped him, knocking him unconscious.

At this time, Jiang Hao, who was in charge of cleaning up those who participated in the rebellion, rushed over after finishing his work.

Seeing Chen Hong's unhappy face, he asked why.

Suddenly he laughed and said,

"My lord, you only saw the gold and silver in the warehouse, but you didn't see the real valuables in this water village, right in front of your eyes!"

Chen Hong was taken aback for a moment, and immediately became excited when he heard what he said.

"What do you mean by that? Could it be that there's something, I'll see if it's gone!"

Jiang Hao pointed to the more than 100 warships on the water that had not been damaged and said,
"Aren't these ships exactly!"
