Chapter 211 Yanning's bold plan(2/2)
"Didn't my father-in-law see it? How decadent are these five Beichuan prefectures now? The simplest example is the minerals of Beichuan prefectures. How many official mines are there in the country? There are only thirty ores, but what about private mines? There are as many as seventy-three? Moreover, among the official mines, Duke An Guo and Lin Guanghou have to exploit some interests. The real ones handed over to the treasury are probably less than 20% of the total mining amount of the five Beichuan prefectures each year!"
"What you said is indeed correct, but..."
"But what? Under the rule of these people, how could the treasury of Daqian be rich? If I kill them, I will do my best to do my country and for the world."
"So, you copied their mansion and are you planning to hand over the money to the national treasury?" Qian Shanyuan looked at Yan Ning with a strange look on his face.
"What did my father-in-law say? Does my father-in-law think I would be able to embezzle the money? No, my father-in-law was wrong. They were confiscated and their family was exterminated because they mined ore privately. Therefore, all the property copied from their mansions will be transferred to the yamen of the Jintien Inspection Department of the Five Mansions." Yan Ning said with a positive look on his face.
"..." Qianshan is far away.
A five-union Jin-Iron Inspection Department, a third-rank yamen, but it has all the silver and land of all the princes and nobles of Beichuan’s five prefectures. How does this yamen feel larger than the national treasury?
However, in a sense...
Yan Ning copied the property of the princes and nobles of the Five Palaces of Beichuan into the Jintien Inspection Office of the Five Palaces, which seemed to make people have nothing to say? After all, the account books of these princes and nobles were in Yan Ning's hands.
The evidence is conclusive. I have raided your home and there is nothing illegal!
"My father-in-law, I don't want to play with you. But, I can't just let go of my father's death, right? The nobles of the five Beichuan prefectures work together to destroy my Zhenbeihou Mansion. I do this, but I just protect myself." Yan Ning finally picked up the tea on the table and took a sip.
"Well, then... what do you want to do next? What are you planning?" Qian Shanyuan finally looked at Yan Ning seriously when he heard this, and also picked up the teacup.
"My plan is relatively big, but for now, I just want to be the king first." Yan Ning said casually.
