Chapter 645
"This matter is very important, and we need to send competent people to deal with it. After thinking about it, it seems that Brother Dai Zong should go to this matter. At the same time, I will send Lu Fei and Lin Feng to follow you. The two of them It’s just a matter of time to follow to see the world.”

Dai Zong nodded and cupped his hands towards Wutian.

"Your Majesty, I am willing to accept this important task. But dare to ask Your Majesty, to what extent should this matter be handled?"

Dai Zong wanted Wu Tian to give him a bottom line, whether he wanted to kill all the rebellious old nobles, or just behead the leader and deter the rest.

Wu Tian pondered for a while, and said with a serious face: "The flood in Luoyang has already broken through my bottom line. They are determined to oppose me for their own interests, regardless of the life and death of the people, regardless of the current situation of Liang Guo. In this case, Why should I be polite to them. You first have a round with Li Li and Li Bing to understand the situation, and then discuss how to put an end to this disaster. I have given Li Li special privileges, and when necessary, he can mobilize troops nearby."

"However, I have one request. This matter must be dealt with quickly. It is not a last resort, and the killing should be minimized, so as not to cause panic among the common people."

Dai Zong nodded, understanding what Wu Tian meant.

Wu Tian sighed slightly, turned to look at Lu Fei and Lin Feng, and smiled wryly.

"Originally, I wanted to catch up with the two virtuous nephews. Now that the state affairs are busy, we can only catch up on the past in the future. The two virtuous nephews should not take offense."

Lu Fei and Lin Feng hurriedly bowed their hands to Wu Tian, ​​and said in unison: "Your Majesty is serious, it is our honor to serve Liang Guo. Don't worry, Your Majesty, we will definitely study hard from Uncle Dai Zong."

Hearing this, Wu Tian felt very comforted, and waved his hand to signal them to retreat.

Dai Zong led Lin Feng and Lu Fei back.

After they left, Wu Tian felt that the matter was not that simple, so he immediately sent an order to the two generals who were stationed in Liaodi, Hua Rong, and Xixia's Wu Song, who were near the Guanzhong area, asking them to take good care of the local nobles. Changes, when necessary, can take action without reporting.

In addition, Wu Tian dispatched an order to go to the Western Regions to Xu Ning to inquire about Tang Long's situation in the Western Regions.

After everything was ordered, Wu Tian breathed a sigh of relief with a heavy heart.

Hubu Shangshu came in at this time, Wu Tian frowned slightly, staring at Hubu Shangshu.

When Hubu Shangshu was looked at by Wu Tian, ​​he was a little at a loss, and Wu Tian's eyes were full of anger.

"Is there anything important you came in to find me?"

After a while, Wu Tian asked in a cold voice.

He was already very irritable today, and at this time the Minister of the Household Department came again, there must be some troubles again.

Hubu Shangshu cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, the minister came this time to report that the 1000 million taels of silver from Dali escorted by General Lu Fei has successfully entered the treasury. In addition, a batch of tributes from the southwestern countries have all arrived in Liangcheng I did some calculations, and it's worth 3000 million taels of silver."

"Your Majesty knows that His Majesty is in urgent need of silver recently, so I dared to come here just to ask His Majesty, whether to convert this batch of tribute into silver and deposit it in the treasury?"

When Wu Tian heard this, he realized that he had misunderstood.

He's a little startled now.

He secretly took a breath to calm himself down, and waved his hand to signal the household secretary to get up.

Hubu Shangshu dare not get up.

Wu Tian couldn't help laughing, he was moody these days, and really frightened the Minister of the Household Department.

He walked over and reached out to help the Minister of the Household Department to stand up.

Hubu Shangshu was very surprised to see Wu Tian personally helped him up, and his face suddenly became extremely pale.

"Your Majesty, did the subject do something wrong? If Your Majesty wants to execute the subject, please make it clear."

Wu Tian shook his head, lightly patted Hubu Shangshu on the shoulder and said: "Aiqing, I know that these days, I have scared you because of Liang Guoguo's moodiness, and I am here to apologize to you."

As he spoke, the Minister of the Household Department of the Wutian Dynasty cupped his hands.

Hubu Shangshu was flattered, an emperor can recognize his mistakes so much, and even apologize to his courtiers, which is rare in ancient and modern times.

He subconsciously knelt in front of Wu Tian and kowtowed.

"Your Majesty, I dare not accept His Majesty's gift. I know that His Majesty has been racking his brains over Liang Guo's affairs these days, so his mood has been fluctuating. It's because I didn't do my best, because I didn't understand Your Majesty's difficulties. It's the fault of the minister and the others."

Wu Tian helped the Minister of the Household Department up again, shaking his head slightly.

"Not all the mistakes are the fault of the ministers. I, the Emperor of Liang, also has certain responsibilities. Anyway, the mistakes have already happened. What we should do now is to eliminate the mistakes before they become too big to be controlled. Extinct in the bud. In exchange for the tributes from the southwestern countries, how much silver do we have in our treasury now?"

Hubu Shangshu took out the account book from his arms, opened it, looked at it, and said to Wutian: "If you count the 1000 million silver recovered from the Dali area and the 3000 million taels of silver converted from the tributes from the southwestern countries, the treasury There are a total of 9000 million taels of silver, and [-] taels of silver."

Wu Tian nodded slightly, very satisfied.

In addition to the 200 million taels of silver needed to maintain the 1000 million troops a year, and the 3000 million taels of silver used by the entire Liang Kingdom, the treasury still has 5000 million taels of gold and [-] million taels of silver.

Take out 1000 million taels of silver and hand it over to the Manufacturing Bureau to build a huge overseas fleet. In the future, it will assist Elizabeth in retaking England, trade relations with Western Europe, and rampant in South Asia, Southeast Asia and other regions.

In addition, 1000 million taels of silver were given to Li Shilang to train a million-dollar navy to prepare for the future development of maritime trade.

After deducting these, there are only 3000 million taels of gold and [-] million taels of silver left in the treasury.

These silvers are enough for Liang Guo to turn around for five years.

In the past five years, Liang Guo was considered stable.

At present, the core of the Liang country's economic development is "electricity" as the core, and at the same time, the extra corn and sweet potatoes are sold abroad as accessories, in exchange for real money, and even special products from other countries.

All the countries in the Western Regions have handed over their money for electricity, and within 20 years they can only exchange for economic benefits by transporting corn and sweet potatoes.As for the southwestern countries, they are important merchants developed by Liang Guo. They can not only transfer electricity, but also transport all the technologies they need for railway transportation, cloud rice and sweet potatoes, and make a good profit in the process of helping the development of the southwestern countries. Pen.

For at least 20 years, all countries in the Southwest will need to rely on Liang Guo.

Beyond that, that's overseas trade.

France and England are also interested in electrical technology.

It can be used as a basis for entering the Western European market. As long as it obtains the Western European market, or even the market in many unknown areas behind, Liang Guo's economy can develop rapidly.
