The orthodox emperor summoned Chen Xu, and he talked about three things in total. First, the court needs silver, a lot of silver, at least 1.8 million taels; second, the court has no money and is simply unable to make ends meet; third, the Ministry of Revenue is helpless, and if Chen Xu has no choice but to order the Jinyiwei and the Tiqi cavalry to go out everywhere, and make up all the silver at all costs.

From beginning to end, the emperor did not mention that Chen Xu "plundered" one million silver from Jianning Hou so huge, how could the emperor not know? He did not explain this matter, either he wanted Chen Xu to contribute it himself, or he had already included the silver in the treasury - the emperor was rich in the world, and this batch of silver was no longer private, it was the country, and his - the gap in the silver was only 800,000 taels

Minister of the Ministry of Revenue Jin Lian looked at Chen Xu with a low eyebrow. The Ministry of Revenue was in charge of money and food in the world, but he had to entrust the young Minister of War. How could he bear it? Lord Jin was in a hot face, and he even had plans to resign because of the blame. Of course, Lord Jin would not do this. He was in trouble and was just serving the country and fulfilling his loyalty to His Majesty. If Lord Chen really had a way, he would definitely fight against criticism and help him with all his strength. As for whether Chen Xu had a way, Jin Lian was very optimistic. Do you really want to impose heavy taxes on the people?

Chen Xu looked up at the orthodox emperor and looked at Eunuch Chang beside Emperor Gongli. He said, "Your Majesty, I have raised one million, and the remaining 800,000 taels, Rong Chen thinks about a solution."

Since the previous life, Chen Xu has understood one truth: money is earned rather than saved. Even if you save money so much that you can spend money to a large size without using toilet paper with your fingers, how much money can you save? There is no limit to making money and spending money. This is the realm of a man.

Now that the power is in power, with the support of the entire country, you have to be stingy with just one million and eight hundred thousand taels of silver. Chen Xu himself looks down on himself. The border town is the gateway of the Great Yan. If there is any difference, the enemy will be given the opportunity. If the border town loses, the Ola cavalry will go straight to the capital. The border town is not strong enough to resist Yesen. Although this day will come sooner or later, at least it is not possible to use one million and eight hundred thousand taels of silver to win at least one month of preparation time. This transaction is sure to make a profit.

"Shangshu Chen has raised one million silver?" Jin Lian had not yet known about Chen Xu and Marquis Jianning. He was surprised to share. One million silver has been obtained. Is the remaining 800,000 still far away? "Where does this silver from Lord Chen come from?"

The orthodox emperor smiled but said nothing, Chen Xu scratched his head and said, "The method of robbers crowing and dogs stealing is not worth mentioning."

Jin Lian: “…”

The orthodox emperor was amused by Chen Xu's expression. He believed that Chen Xu's pressure was definitely above him, but this kid could make fun of suffering. This was definitely a skill. The orthodox emperor remembered the teachings of the previous emperor: If he had thunder in his heart and had a face like Pinghu, he could be appointed as a general. Thinking of the Ola cavalry, he would be surrounded and intercepted. Chen Xu was as usual, talking and laughing. Isn't he such a person? Thinking of this, the orthodox emperor became more and more fortunate in the decision that Dayan had this son, which was both a blessing for the people and a blessing for Sirou. If there was no emperor girl, he really didn't know what to reward him in the future.

"Mr. Jin, the most important thing at the moment is to raise the remaining 800,000 taels. Of course, the money we want to raise is not only 800,000 taels, but at least 5 million."

Jin Lian couldn't help but take a breath of five million silver, at least?

"Mr. Chen's court's income is only 3.3 million taels this year. If the people cannot afford it, it will cause civil unrest."

Three million and three million? Chen Xu had not expected that Marquis Jianning could take out one million silver at will. Is this a waste? Chen Xu didn't know, but one thing is certain that his family's silver is definitely several million taels. A mere marquis is so rich that he can compare to a country. How did he get this silver?

Of course, the imperial relatives, princes and ministers, the court would not have only one Jianning Marquis. It would be fine if this was their legal income. The key was that their money would never be clean. With so many borers, how could the court not be poor and weak? Chen Xu looked up at the orthodox emperor. Even though he was an idiot in finance, he might know that the tricks were invisible. The only possibility that the emperor could not touch those people. The emperor was powerless. What could he do as a young boy?

How could Chen Xu not understand the powerful and deafening statement of the respected old man in his later generations when he was angry: Anti-corruption means fighting tigers first and then wolves. You must never tolerate traitors against tigers. You can also prepare a hundred coffins and have one of my mouths. It is nothing more than a death to the death together...

Chen Xu could not be so fearless. He just wanted to live, want his mother and wife to live a good life and solve the financial crisis of the court. It was like a major social change. Throughout history, the reformists had no good end. Shang Yang's reform was tragically dismembered by five horses. Wang Anshi dismissed his prime minister twice, and the reform of 1898 was the only one who died. How happy...

The bloody lessons of the sages, how could Chen Xu make such a "wrong" and take a step back? This is a mountain of gold that can be crushed to pieces by others. At least it can prove that the court can plunder many powerful people.

Boil frogs in warm water, so that they can unleash naan willingly. This is the real ability to deal with the current crisis, and his task is completed. As for the return of principal and interest of the government debt, it will cause trouble for others.

"Mr. Jin, where is the more than three million silver?"

"it took"

Jin Lian glanced at the emperor. More than 200,000 soldiers, soldiers, horses, equipment and huge pensions, just three million taels, and they couldn't hear the sound of the water. Of course, this was not something that could be said in front of the orthodox emperor. The emperor was in charge of the army and almost took off his underwear. He said it. He was slapped the emperor in the face.

Chen Xu: "..."

"Mr. Chen, what are your good plans?"

"Issuing national debt..." Chen Xu thought that this was the only way without disturbing the people. Chen Xu roughly explained the ins and outs of national debt. Jin Lian was shocked when he heard this. He kowtowed to the orthodox emperor, "Your Majesty, the court borrowed debts from the subjects, how can the court be faced? Since ancient times, no dynasty has done such a ridiculous thing..."

Chen Xu looked at Jin Lian with some dissatisfaction and said, "Mr. Jin, how is this absurd? Do you have a good way? Besides this, you can only add heavy taxes. The people are suffering. Do you have the heart to force them to displace and sell their children?"

Jin Lian was silent for a while, "Mr. Chen, don't you also need the people to pay money for money or money for money?"

"If the people have extra money, of course they can contribute to the court. I think most of them should be borne by those rich people."

Rich people have money, and money must have power. Isn’t it realistic to want them to pay for money to buy government bonds that they have never heard of? Jin Lian looked at Chen Xu and pointed out the key to the problem.

Chen Xu smiled slightly, "I haven't tried it, how can I not do it?"

Jin Lian was speechless. He really didn't know if the young man in front of him had a perfect solution or if he was blindly arrogant.

"Chen Xu, let it go according to your ideas." The orthodox emperor made the final decision. He looked at Jin Lian again, hoping that he could provide Chen Xu with the best of his ability.

The emperor is the superior. Although the leader speaks tactfully, Lord Jin cannot listen tactfully. He knows that the emperor wants him to be Chen Xu's deputy Lord Jin is so old but he will be suppressed by a young boy. To be honest, he is quite unconvinced and unconvinced. Jin Lian has the style of a gentleman, but with Chen Xu's words that do not want to increase the burden on the people, he will not secretly stumbling. As for whether Chen Xu can raise money, he will wait and see.

Chen Xu took a break, and just took two steps, he heard the orthodox emperor say, "You take the time to see Sirou, I heard that she is in a bad mood."

"…I obey the order"

Walking out of the imperial study room, Chen Xu went straight to Princess Sirou's residence

Sirou wore a sky blue cross-collar vest with plum blossom pattern embroidered on the neckline, which complemented the moon-white round collar midi; she wore a white long skirt and a sky blue belt, and looked elegant and unique. When Chen Xu entered, she was sitting in front of the desk and writing something.

Chen Xu stopped the palace maids from reporting, and he quietly walked to Sirou and covered her eyes.

"Little Princess, guess who I am"

How could Sirou not know Chen Xu's breath? She opened Chen Xu's hands covering her eyes, turned her face and stared at him with her black eyes to see grievances, resentment, guilt, and self-blame. Chen Xu felt that his heart was touched. It was hard for him to believe that a girl under fifteen years old had such a heartbreaking gaze.

"Sirou, let me see what you are writing?"

Chen Xu tried to dilute the sadness in his heart, but the more he read it, the more he felt sad: Sirou was copying, the private match between the Seven Fairies Dong Yong selected this piece by Chen Xu, and the transcription of Princess Sirou. She has been polished, modified, and copied over and over again. It is quite as exciting as Cao Xueqin's writing for ten years and added and deleted five times in the past. In the past, Princess Sirou loved the passage of "Ten Days of Yao Ji", and she cried every time she read it; now she likes the Seven Fairies, and the Eight Fairies Sifans are coming to the world, and she will cry whenever she read it.

Chen Xu looked at the paper stained with tears in front of him, and he sighed a little. Why did he tell her such sensational things? How good would he have told her if he had known it would be?

"My husband, I'm sorry"

Sirou suddenly said, Chen Xu forced out a smiling face. He picked up Sirou and sat on his lap, pointing her red lips with his finger, "What are you talking nonsense? I should say that I am sorry for me, I really don't want to marry you."

Sirou's eyes gradually filled with tears, but she tried her best to hold back the tears from rolling down.

"No, my husband would rather disobey the emperor's will for sister Mengyao. Sirou is only happy. If her husband does not miss the old love, Sirou will be sad."

Chen Xu was a little amused and crying. He lowered his head and kissed her lips lightly, and said, "Girl, cry if you want to cry."

Sirou stared at Chen Xu for a few seconds, and tears seemed to flow out of her eyes uncontrollably.

"Mr. Sirou wants to marry you, but she doesn't want to be sorry to Sister Mengyao..." Princess Sirou sobbed and said while crying. Chen Xu just hugged her and rubbed her ears. He gradually reacted. This made him very embarrassed. Sirou sat on Chen Xu's lap. How could she not know? Suddenly, she sniffed and lowered her voice, "Mr., Sirou wants to rest, you hugged Sirou to the couch." After a pause, she said, "Mr., don't worry, no one will come in."

"Gudong"

Chen Xu swallowed and spitted. Although it was exciting to have an affair in the palace, if someone knocked it out and couldn't get it soaked in the pig cage, he felt that Alexander... to be continued)
