The layout of the room on the second floor is that the two large rooms of Chongzhen and Empress Zhou are in the center, Li Banghua and the three of them are on the left, and Zhou Shixian's room is on the right, which is considered to be the left and right guarding the bedroom.

Zhou Shixian returned to his room, took off all his legs first, fed cold water from the water tank, mixed it with hot water, wiped it happily, put it on a clean inner jacket, poured it on the bed, thinking that this time I could finally sleep comfortably.

He calmed down here, but heard the movement next door, and a faint sound of water came. He accidentally remembered Princess Zhaoren's words just now, and his heart felt warm and he couldn't help but feel a lot of thoughts.

As a result, I didn’t sleep well that night, and countless wonderful ideas came one after another in my dreams.

I woke up early in the morning. I sat up in a daze and slapped myself twice on the face. It hurt so much that I woke up completely.

There is still something to do today.

The first thing to do is to make up for one of your biggest omissions.

This time he left Beijing, he made sufficient preparations. In terms of money, there were two silver carts in front and behind that were loaded with gold and silver obtained from the house scout. Thanks to Mr. Xu, the wealth was more than 200,000 taels, which was not only enough to be used for military pay on the way, but also to deal with possible accidents, but even he made plans for how to use the money after arriving in Nanjing.

He had made a lot of calculations, but he still forgot a little. Until yesterday, when he asked to send 4,500 taels of robbery to reward the army before the imperial guards, Chongzhen's eyes lit up when he heard the amount of silver, which made him realize what he had done wrong.

There was not even a penny on the emperor.

The queen didn't even have a penny.

Therefore, when the emperor was in charge of Jiawei, he could only verbally praise him and then write down Zhou Shixian.

When the queen wanted to reward Ruichang, she simply gave the bracelet she wore.

If you don’t have money, you can only wait for your subordinates to be informed and polite, and you cannot ask for it.

If you ask for it, you will become a beggar. The ministers must not place the emperor and the queen in such an awkward position.

This is his negligence, but fortunately, it is still too late to make up for the loss! Zhou Shixi has an advantage, which is that he has strong action. Once he finds out that he has any shortcomings, he will immediately try to make up for it. He made up for Li Banghua and Ni Yuanlu last night, so today it is time to plan for the emperor and empress.

After breakfast, he called Ruan Ming to the room. The two of them wrote and streaked for a long time before they had planned two orders. Zhou Shixian put the orders in hand and came to Chongzhen's room, asking Ruan Ming and others to be outside, and asked Wang Chengen to inform him on his behalf.

Chongzhen was very happy when he heard that the prince-consort was coming. He knew that this prospective son-in-law worked hard all the way and had to take care of too many things, so he never disturbed him if he was not necessary. Now he came to see him on his own initiative, so he naturally summoned him in immediately.

"Shixian, is there something to report today so early?"

Zhou Shixian was a little allergic to the word "Shixian" by Princess Zhaoren. Now, when Chongzhen shouted, he almost got distracted and quickly replied: "Yes, I am in front of Your Majesty, so I dare not say it early."

"When it comes to this, I am not boasting. I have never stopped the morning court in 17 years since I was at the extreme."

Zhou Shixian looked at the slightly complacent look on Chongzhen's face, thinking that although this is true, the opposite story tells us that if we take the wrong path, the more we persist, the further we will be.

"Your Majesty is diligent and frugal, and everyone in the world knows that it is too self-restrained in terms of self-reliance and suffering. How can we be worthy of being subordinates?"

When Chongzhen heard what he said, he felt a little strange. He was obviously talking early, so why did he turn to spending money?

"Shixian, just report whatever you want to say." Chongzhen said with a smile. After all, he has seen many things like the emperor who has been seventeen years, and he has seen the principles of suppressing first and then promoting, and then setting up his posts. He knows that Zhou Shixian has something to say.

"Yes." Zhou Shixian saw that his trick could not be hidden from Chongzhen, so he simply obediently and said directly, "I requested to re-establish the internal transportation warehouse."

"Oh?" Chongzhen's expression was complicated. Wang Chengen, who was standing beside him, couldn't help but look up at Zhou Shixian.

The taxes of the Ming Dynasty were divided into Taicang and the inner treasury based on the state tax. Taicang is the state treasury, which is under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Revenue, and the inner treasury is the emperor's private treasury.

The inner warehouse includes the inner transportation warehouse, the Guangji warehouse, the fifth warehouse of A, B, C, D and Wu warehouse, the stolen punishment warehouse, and the only thing that is inside the transport warehouse is gold and silver, and the others are all physical objects such as cloth.

The gold and silver in the inner transportation treasury are what is commonly known as the treasury. In the eyes of ministers, it is like a treasure pot that can never be taken out and used inexhaustible.

During the Hongzhi, Jiajing and Wanli dynasties, the emperor was strong and could bring millions of taels of silver from the national treasury. However, after Chongzhen ascended the throne, he did not dig out any silver from Taicang, but instead kept issuing the treasury, so that the court officials knew that the Ministry of Revenue had no money and asked His Majesty the Emperor to issue the treasury.

Because the military pay of the three major camps in the capital and the twenty-six guards of the Shangzhi Dynasty are supported by the internal treasury, as long as the commander brought the troops from the Beijing camp out, he could just ask for the issuance of the internal treasury.

After all, the internal transportation warehouse is not a real treasure pot. In the past two years, it has made more money and made less money. The treasury has finally dried up completely, and even the soldiers guarding the city could not give out any rewards.

The library is still there, the money is gone.

Now that he has escaped from the capital, he has no more treasury and no more than a tael of silver around him. What is set up again is nothing more than mirror flowers, water and moon, looking at the plum blossoms to quench their thirst.

Chongzhen shook his head and smiled. The post tour is outside, and it is not as serious as the court report.

"Shixian, it's good to re-establish the internal transport warehouse," he said to Zhou Shixian jokingly, "But where are you planning to set up? Where does the treasury come from?"

"Your Majesty, I request that the inner treasury be placed in the silver cart and follow the sage," Zhou Shixian said confidently, and presented the list in his sleeves with both hands. "As for the inner treasury, please start from this list."

"What?"

Before Wang Chengen could come forward, Chongzhen reached out and took the order. There were only a few lines on the order, which were simple and clear, and he could see clearly at a glance:

Four hundred pieces of silver ingots with footprints, each weighing five taels, totaling two thousand taels of silver

One hundred and twenty gold ingots, each weighing ten taels, and a silver discount of ten thousand two hundred taels

One thousand five hundred taels of red gold, two thousand four thousand taels of silver

Five Great East Beads, 12,500 taels of silver

Five large rubies, 7,500 taels of silver.

In this way, there are always 65,000 taels of silver.

Chongzhen was so excited that his hands were trembling. The child said that the establishment of the internal transportation warehouse was not a false statement! He coughed and handed the order to Wang Chengen.

"Shixian, how did you raise these many silver dollars?"

This is what I used to steal.

"I will destroy my family and follow my father, and I will be the only one who is responsible for my family." The prince-consort said earnestly.

"This..." Chongzhen thought to himself, is my parents married to a rich family's child? Shaoqing from Taipu Temple seems to have a lot of income per year.

"There are also robberies captured by the Jinyiwei in front of the capital." The prince-in-law added.

Your Majesty, you have a share of your own property.

"Okay, okay," Chongzhen nodded and said, "The inner transportation warehouse is set up again on the silver cart, and Wang Chengen, the general manager of the company, was responsible for his responsibility and... and... "

"Your Majesty is to assist in the affairs of the Ministry of War, Ruan Ming," Zhou Shixian said, "The empress's body and self are also placed in the same car as the treasury."

"Ti Ji?" Chongzhen said in confusion, "When the Empress left the palace, she never brought any silver..."

Before he finished speaking, he suddenly understood and felt a lot of emotion in his heart: This child is really.
Chapter completed!
