Reborn Tang Emperor Li Chengqian

Chapter 144

"Your Highness! This is the profit account book for this month's bank loan. Please have a look at it, Your Highness." Li Yifu sent the bank's account book to the East Palace for Li Chengqian to look through.

Li Chengqian took the ledger that Wang Quan had taken from Li Yifu, and passed it to him, and looked through it one by one.

"Judging from the number recorded in the ledger, it's more than the expected amount of profit in my mind, Yifu, you've done a good job in this matter!"

"I want to reward you well, tell me, what should I reward you?" Li Chengqian said.

"Serving His Highness is the duty of a minister, and I dare not beg for any reward." Li Yifu said politely.

Li Chengqian would not take Li Yifu's words seriously.

Although it is Li Yifu's duty to serve him, it is not because he hopes to be appreciated by him, the crown prince, in exchange for more benefits and future.

If Li Chengqian didn't express anything, he would be said to be mean and ungrateful. In the future, who would be willing to work hard for you with all his heart.

Therefore, he must reward Li Yifu, not only a reward, but also a big reward, so that his courtiers will work harder to serve him.

"The widow has always been rewarded and punished! You have made merit, and the widow will naturally reward you. This is the reward you deserve." Li Chengqian said.

As a qualified leader, you must not only distinguish between rewards and punishments, but also give both grace and power.

"Thank you, Your Highness, for your kindness!" Li Yifu was overjoyed, and hurriedly thanked him!

"Wang Quan!" Li Chengqian said.

Wang Quan immediately took a step forward, opened the booklet in his hand, and read out his reward to Li Yifu: "This time Li Yifu has done a good job, I will reward you with a piece of beautiful jade, a hundred pieces of silk and satin, and a hundred taels of silver..."

"My minister, Li Yifu, thanks His Royal Highness for the reward." After Wang Quan read out the reward to Li Yifu, Li Yifu was very grateful.

"In the future, Qing will have to worry a lot more." Li Chengqian said.

"I will die for Your Highness the Crown Prince! If Your Highness has no other orders, then I will retire first!" Li Yifu said, seeing that Li Chengqian really had nothing else to arrange for him to do, so he withdrew.

Not long after Li Yifu left, a servant came to report.

"I would like to report to you, Your Majesty's secret letter has been delivered, please read it."

Wang Quan stepped forward and took the secret letter from the servant, waved his hand to make the servant leave, and he handed the secret letter to Li Chengqian.

"Lang Jun! What did everyone say in the secret letter?" Seeing that Li Chengqian had read it, Wang Quan threw the secret letter aside, wondering what was written on it?
As soon as Li Chengqian casually threw aside the confidential letter of His Majesty Li Er, Wang Quan knew that he could ask about the content on it. Li Chengqian might not tell him, but he could ask, and there was nothing to keep secret.

If Li Chengqian put away the secret letter solemnly, no matter how curious Wang Quan was, he would not say anything more.

"It's nothing, my father already knew about the bank's affairs, and I specially sent this secret letter, hoping that my widow can distribute half of the bank's profits to the national treasury."

"Even if the father doesn't say anything, the widow will distribute part of the profits to the household department, and let the household department send it to the national treasury for storage." Li Chengqian said.

He originally planned to distribute part of the profits obtained through the bank to the national treasury. After all, Datang will be his in the future, and the treasury will be enriched. It will be much more convenient for the country to use money in the future.

It doesn't matter if Li Er comes or doesn't come to this secret letter, as long as he doesn't want to give it, he has many ways to prevaricate it, and it will definitely not cause Li Er's dissatisfaction.

"Wang Quan! You go and tell Li Yifu to put part of the money in the treasury managed by the Ministry of Household Affairs." Li Chengqian ordered.

"I'll do it now, servant girl!" Wang Quan said, and retreated.

After finding Li Yifu, and telling Li Chengqian what Li Yifu said, Li Yifu immediately withdrew part of the bank's profits and ordered someone to hand it over to the household department.

"In the future, I will rely on Wang Neiguan to say a few good words for me in front of His Highness, and I will definitely not treat Wang Neiguan badly."

Before Wang Quan left, Li Yi's mansion gave Wang Quan a silver coin, hoping that Wang Quan could give him some good words in front of the crown prince in the future.

Wang Quan accepted it calmly. It is human nature to love money, and Wang Quan is naturally not exempt.

Horses don't get fat without night grass, people don't get rich without windfall!Wang Quan knows what kind of money can be taken and what kind of money cannot be taken.

Therefore, Wang Quan only takes what should be taken, and absolutely does not take what should not be taken. He says what should be said, and he cannot say a word that should not be revealed, so as not to put himself in it.

"Li Sheren stays behind, don't worry about your husband, our family will definitely say a few good words for you, and when the time comes, you will be promoted and rich! Don't forget the credit of our family." He weighed the money in his hand. , a full tael of silver, Wang Quan said with a smile.

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say, Wang Neiguan will go slowly, and I won't send you off." Li Yifu said.

"Li Sheren stay here." Wang Quan smiled, bowed his hands towards Li Yifu, boarded the car and left Li Mansion, and returned to the East Palace to report to Li Chengqian.

Li Yifu turned around and went back to the mansion.

The servant that Li Yifu sent to send money to the household department came back and reported to Li Yifu about the money delivered by the household department.

"What did you say?" Li Yifu asked in surprise, his hands trembled, and the teacup in his hand almost fell to the ground.

"Master, I sent the money to the household department. The people in the household department didn't go through the delivery procedures with me, so they sent me back directly. I think something is a little strange. I will report to you immediately when I come back," the servant said.

Li Yifu frowned, this procedure has not been completed, if someone embezzles this money privately, there may be problems.

At that time, if the Ministry of Households refuses to admit it, they will beat him up and say that Li Yifu embezzled the money without handing it over to the Ministry of Households.

Even if the unfounded Li Yifu jumped into the Yellow River, he would not be able to clear up his suspicions.

This seems to be the idea of ​​someone wanting to spend the money.

No, no one can move the money. He has to go to the household department in person to implement this matter.

"Who in the household department did you hand over the money to?" Li Yifu asked.

He had to find out who took the money. Most of the people who took the money wanted to embezzle the money for themselves.

As long as the money is not registered in the treasury, it has nothing to do with the household department, and the money is still counted in his Li Yifu's account.

"It's Hou Junji, Shangshu of the Household Department." The servant said, the money he sent to the Ministry of Household happened to be left by Hou Junji, the Shangshu of the Household Department. He asked Hou Junji for various procedures, but Hou Junji sent him away. The household department was blasted out.

"You mean Chen Guogong Hou Junji?" Li Yifu asked in surprise.

Hou Junji ennobled Chen Guogong, served as Minister of the Ministry of War, and took the title of Minister of the Ministry of Households.

The title of Shangshu of the Ministry of Accounting is just a false title given by Li Er, but the operation and management of the Ministry of Accounting is in charge of another Shangshu of the Ministry of Accounting.

Hou Junji's Hubu Shangshu is just a decoration for the ears of the deaf, and Hou Junji would not go to the Hubu on weekdays.

Why did you go to the household department today, and you just happened to meet him and send someone to the household department to send money?

Li Yifu secretly thought something was wrong, he always felt that something big was going to happen.
