Chapter 244 The poorest emperor in history? (bug catch)
The situation in the Wa country was a bit complicated. After searching around, the hidden guards found the most powerful general's mansion, bought people's hearts with gold and silver, fished in troubled waters, and hid Yinzhen in the general's private treasury for half the night.
But it was in the middle of the night that Yinzhen was bored, and having learned the Japanese language along the way, he flipped through it casually. At first, he was still complaining about their rough account books, but it turned out that they seemed to have caught a big fish.
There are several million taels of silver in the treasury alone, which makes Yinzhen, who once claimed to be the richest elder brother in the Qing Dynasty, a little jealous. How can a general in such a tiny place be so rich?
It's a pity that I am very intelligent, but every time I don't go well... Time is fate, he is a little unwilling.
After careful study, it was discovered that there was a silver mine behind the general's mansion, and Yinzhen was even more envious.Silver mine, more than one?
In line with the standard of doing business in a steady stream, Yinzhen sighed under the old general's face of anger and panic, and took the initiative to drop 200 million, and then the two had a friendly and cordial exchange.
Although he only stayed for half a night, Yinyu said that he had been imprisoned for two months, so he had to learn the Japanese language by listening to the voices outside, saying that he had never been wronged like this since he was a child.
When the old general heard that his subordinates had kidnapped the merchant ship of the Qing Dynasty behind his back, and hid the prince of the Qing Dynasty in the cellar of his mansion for nearly two months, he almost lost his breath. Where do you dare to bargain again?In order to send away the god of plague, he also complained about his suffering.
Yinzhen also expressed that he could forgive, but said that in order to find himself, Qing had spent a lot of manpower and financial resources. Khan Ama fell ill because of this, and boasted that there were many craftsmen who made this batch of guns in a short time. need reassurance...
800 million taels, probably not enough.Not only is it not enough, it is far from enough.
Even, Yinzhen settled an account for everyone.
Grain, ships, soldiers, firearms... After counting them one by one, the old general and his confidantes were dizzy and dared not bargain again.
She even felt that because Yinzhen was young, she needed less face, so she wanted to dismiss him quickly.
In short, when sending off the Qing caravan, the old general still lamented to his subordinates that the Ninth Prince of the Qing Dynasty was a young and soft-hearted man.
The kind-hearted Yinzhen got another good news after returning to the ship. Almost all of her goods and ships were recovered.
Her hard work was not in vain, and the money she owed would definitely be paid off as soon as possible, Yinzhen was full of expectations.
"These 800 million..." Ma Qi looked at the boxes of silver piled up on every ship, looked at Yinzhen, and didn't know what to say?
"For the sake of Yinzhen, I have tired you all." With his own goods and merchant ships, Yinzhen is not so sure about the 800 million taels of silver. He also knows that the silver is hot, so he said that he can take out 100 million taels of silver. Two come to reward the Daqingshui Army who went out for themselves this time.
He also said that every casualty soldier can order a pension of 200 to [-] taels from himself.The money was paid by himself.
Hearing this, the faces of the soldiers around them were all smiles. The number of casualties this time was less than ten, which was something they had never imagined. How could they be unhappy?
"The remaining 700 million...Let's hand it over to the national treasury!" Yinzhen really wanted the silver, but also knew that after holding the silver, just like the protagonist in the previous story of the fourth sister-in-law, there would be endless troubles, so Gritting his teeth, he said directly.
With hot hands, it is better to donate early, as a contribution to Khan Ama.
The Great Qing expedition cost less than 400 million taels including the cost and equipment, but the Ninth Prince directly doubled it back. Even if only 700 million taels were sent to the palace, this is unprecedented.
Kangxi once thought that after defeating the Wa Kingdom, he would send some rewards to show his magnanimity after they surrendered and surrendered, but what did his son write in the letter?
People have mines!
The Japanese shogunate easily took out nearly ten million taels of silver, but his own private treasury was less than 2 taels...
Kangxi's face turned black...
I feel aggrieved...
He thinks that he is a superior country, but now he tells himself that he is the emperor of the Qing Dynasty, but he is no better than the ruler of a small country?
After Yinzhen returned to the Qing Dynasty, after the tenth brother hugged her tightly and cried bitterly, she thanked the prince and others.Then after paying enough customs duties, he followed everyone back to the capital with his enviable goods.
"My ninth brother actually still has money to pay taxes?" Yin Qu came back to his senses and asked in surprise.
Yinzhen curled his lips, he had already prepared the tax money, and he hadn't thought about it at first, but the fourth brother and ten younger brothers took the initiative to give him the money one after another, and he was... moved... forgot...
This time I found the goods, it was time to pay the tax, so I naturally remembered.
The Ninth Princes paid the tax in full and cleanly, which moved the people of the Li Fan Yuan to the point where they wanted to cry.
Yinfeng can be regarded as seeing Xiaojiu's strength clearly again.
"Thanks to the second brother of the prince, as well as the fifth brother and ten younger brothers, I can't repay you for your generosity. I will treat you as followers." Anyway, Yinzhen thought of this part when he accepted the votes from his brothers. Loss, but now he doesn't have to give what he doesn't want to give, which is naturally very generous.
"I don't have a shareholding either, so there's no need..." Yinfeng hurriedly refused, but before he finished speaking, Yinzhen stopped him.
Yinzhen said earnestly: "A friend in adversity sees the truth. You are kind to Yinzhen, the second brother of the crown prince. Yinzhen will keep it in his heart. I have no other skills. Anyway, I will never let my second brother lack money in the future. At least in my lifetime, I have to let the second brother My brother earns no less than the Japanese general."
Of course there are fourth brother and ten younger brothers...and fifth brother?
Anyway, I will never let those who have helped me suffer!
Howling!
Everyone knows about the financial resources of General Wa, and looking at Yinzhen again, thinking about his ability to make money, I can't help but feel a surge of emotion.
Yinzhen on the side was full of envy, and asked in a low voice: "My younger brother was not in Beijing before, so I didn't know that brother Jiu had suffered such a great grievance. How about my younger brother avenge you after returning to Beijing? My younger brother has no other skills, but he has some strength."
"Fourteenth brother, you don't need to blame yourself, you are a good person, I understand." Yinzhen said grandly.Although the fourth brother's own brother couldn't beat him, but seeing his high spirits when he led the troops, Yinzhen felt that this was his own brother, and if he couldn't keep it together, he would really need to be rescued in the future.
Hastily dispatched troops and ended hastily, Ma Qi didn't expect that the battle could be fought like this?After learning from the pain, he decided to let his son, who already loves swimming, change careers and join the navy.
But before Ma Qi figured it out, the capital had already arrived, and a large amount of silver was brought into the capital. Ma Qi felt a strange feeling that he had never had before.
Fighting to earn money, the faces of the old men in the household department are all smiling, it feels really good.
The people who originally joined Yinzhen also became depressed under the crying of the officials of the household department holding the bank stubs.These days, there are very few people who do not borrow money from the account department.
The Daqing water army solved the Japanese pirate attack time that had plagued hundreds of years with lightning speed, which made many people in the court who were looking for trouble shut up. When did the emperor prepare such a group of water army?When did the firearms battalion develop to what it is today?
The key is...why none of them got the news, where did the suddenly expanded sailors come from?
"Hold on first, the ninth brother just came back, Khan Ama is just... the time when the father's love is overwhelming." Yinhu whispered to his subordinates, if a while later, the ninth brother made a big mistake again, pointing out Maybe it will be cleaned up.Now is really not a good time.
Because of going out of Beijing privately, Kangxi intentionally dismissed Yinzhen's original errand, and then Yinzhen immediately began to concentrate on handling his own batch of goods.
He sorted out the goods first, and then sent heavy gifts to Kangxi and the others.
Kangxi held the dead golden scepter and the hat studded with treasures, and fell into deep thought: Is he the poorest among the emperors?
"My son basically doesn't make much money from this batch of goods, but one or two more batches should be enough...to pay off the debt." After distributing the profits in proportion, Yinzhen said in front of Kangxi with some guilt.Khan Ama spent too much for himself, and he had to make up the deposit of the account department first, so he couldn't pay it back for the time being.
Kangxi looked at his rich pockets again, nodded casually, and couldn't help asking again: "How many silver mines are there in Japan?"
"My son asked the caravan to go back to the Wa country to find out." Yinzhen rubbed his chin expectantly.
Yinfeng always felt that something was wrong?But he couldn't say it.
After Yinzhen returned to Beijing, I didn’t know what he had said to Yinzhen. Yinzhen wrote a special memorial, combining maritime trade and naval forces. Merchant ships going out of Beijing can spend a huge amount of money to ask the navy to press the ship...
"Fourth brother said that I earn too much and it is easy to cause bad words from others. Strengthening the training of sailors and improving the treatment of sailors are things that must be considered by the sea trade." Yinzhen was still unconvinced at first, but Yinzhen told him carefully. After talking about the pros and cons, he actually listened to it.
When Yinzhen returned to Beijing, the affairs of the White Lotus Sect had already come to an end.The words of anti-Qing and Fuming are basically no longer spoken. Even if they are Han people, they intend to defend them, and when facing the king of Yongjun who gave them good seeds, they inevitably lack confidence, and finally confessed directly and honestly.
Although the matter was not completely consummated, but the matter has come to this point, Kangxi no longer pursued it, and let Yinzhen Yinxiang return to Beijing to return to his life.
It is a pity for Yinzhen that the pair of Longkodo's sons and daughters have disappeared. All he knows is that the girl is a saint of the White Lotus Sect. The leader has seen it, but the leader has committed suicide in fear of sin.
When the clue was broken, Yinzhen was a little bit unwilling. He felt that it was because he underestimated the enemy.Obviously, he had the opportunity to make a mess before, but in order to be more stable and stable, he was not clean enough to handle things, which led to the imperfect resolution of the matter.
"No problem." Kangxi didn't care much about this, Yinzhen was more capable than he imagined, not only dug out the White Lotus Sect, but also rectified the Cao Gang's salt affairs.Solved a problem in his mind.
He was no longer going to save Longkodo's life, and as for the pair of little mice running around, they would never be able to escape from his palm one day.
"Yinzhen said before that he wanted to combine the merchant ship with the navy, and you gave him the idea?" Kangxi was not surprised by this, and asked directly.
Yinzhen nodded and said firmly: "Although we are different from those barbarians, it is inevitable that these people will have a bold day. The poison, smoke, and ointment before may be temptations. My son thought, we don't bully others, but We also have to frighten and frighten them, not to make people think that we are easy to bully."
Haimao is a big meat pie, the ninth brother can't eat it, ten times the profit can make people crazy, and a hundred times a thousand times is enough to make people desperate.
Since you can't help it, why not regulate it?They earn money, and the court also earns money.Ninth brother can be less criticized.
