But helpless, Ying Zhen, the secretary of the household department, came to ask him for money again.

The reason is to pay wages.

It turns out that since the 20th year of Jiajing, the salaries of hundreds of officials have never been paid in full. The emperor halved the salary, and the remaining half was temporarily donated to the country to tide over the difficulties.Originally, the wages of officials in the Ming Dynasty were very low, and they were only paid half, and all the officials immediately vomited blood. (bfbj) It's okay for foreign officials to scrape the ground, but Beijing officials who have no oil and water are forced to work hard. Haven't you seen that Hai Rui's family raises chickens and grows vegetables?

Facing officials representing hundreds of officials and migrant workers who came to ask for their salaries, Guan Yingzhen, Jiajing, the iron rooster, tightly held his money bag, looked at each other like fighting cocks, and roared that I would chop off the hands of anyone who dared to steal my money.This money is all for my cultivation of immortality and alchemy, so I definitely can't afford it!

But the poor in debt cannot stop the debt-collecting hero.

Guan Yingzhen spoke conclusively, saying that your emperor owed wages in the past, that the treasury had no money, and asked everyone to tighten their belts.But now, the emperor, you are building the Three Great Halls and the Yongling Mausoleum. All fools know that you have made a lot of money, and Yan Song has made a lot of money for you.If you are still so pushy and don't pay the wages owed over the years, the hearts of the people will immediately dissipate, and it will be difficult to lead the team.In addition, the Ministry of Household Affairs owed Shanxi merchants 500 million yuan for emergency, and it was time to pay back the money.If you don't pay me, my Ming officials will go on strike, and the reputation of the Ming court will go bankrupt. As the Minister of the Ministry of Households, I will be ashamed and ask for resignation.

Guan Yingzhen was always old and cunning, and would never be angry with the emperor, but he had no other choice. All the officials owed their salaries for ten years, and they couldn't make it through every year. When they reached their thirtieth year, they would all go to his household minister's house to eat. drink.Even if he is an old fox, he can't stand it.

What's more, Guan Yingzhen has also counted on Jiajing's fate - although the emperor loves money like his life, he is indeed rich now, so it's fun to do it anyway, can't let the Ming court break up because of wage arrears, right?His emperor is a polished commander. Could it be that he has done all the state affairs?

Jiajing wants to cry but has no tears.

No matter how fierce he is, he can't lift a word of reason.

Guan Yingzhen said it convincingly, you had no money in the past, let us suffer together haha, everyone endured it, and now you bought a house and a cemetery, why don't you let us live?

With tears in Jiajing's eyes, he asked Guan Yingzhen to calculate how much he owed all the officials.

With this calculation, the emperor's tears came down.

Up to now, there have been a total of ten years of salary arrears, and a total of 1000 million taels of salaries owed to all officials of the imperial court, civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, and nobles of the royal family.In addition, the money owed to Shanxi merchants is another 500 million.

Ever since, this time, Jiajing watched Guan Yingzhen happily, and led the officials of the household department to remove 500 million silver from the treasury.

Jiajing was heartbroken.

A dignified 5000 million silver, in a blink of an eye, only 1000 million is left, my money~~

Chapter 445 Jiajing who has been debt-collected in turn [2]

Jiajing was exploited by Guan Yingzhen, and she was so distressed that she shed tears. She was thinking about transferring property immediately, but Yang Bo, the new cabinet boss and supervisor of the Ministry of War, came to the door again with the Minister of the Ministry of War.

The purpose is still one, money!

Why do you want more money? !

(╯‵□)╯︵┻━~┻ Turn the table!!!

Will you let me, a wise and mighty emperor, live? !

Under a series of demands for debts, Jiajing collapsed and said in tears:

"Yang Aiqing, I remember that no matter how poor or miserable, you don't owe military expenses?"

Yang Bo was also emotional, and said with tears in his eyes: "Your Majesty, although you don't owe military expenses, you owe the Great Wall and Beijing City Wall repair fees."

Jiajing looked blank: "What? What the hell is this?"

Yang Bo has been in charge of the border defense of the Ming Dynasty for a long time, and he is familiar with the military. He said: "Your Majesty, these years, the little Mongolian prince and Alda have taken turns to invade the border. They have breached the Great Wall dozens of times and attacked the Beijing city wall twice. They all need a huge amount of money to repair. But before the Ming Dynasty had no money, and the minister knew it well, they just barely repaired it. Last year, Mongolia was hit by a heavy snowstorm, and countless animals died of freezing and starvation. Mongolian Altan Khan is stupid~stupid~ I want to move, if the Great Wall is not repaired, I am afraid that in the 20th year of Jiajing, Mongolia broke the Great Wall and killed the tragedy of Beijing, and it will happen again."

Hearing about the 20th anniversary of Jiajing, Jiajing was afraid for a while.

In the 20th year of Jiajing, Al Da Khan made a surprise move, bypassed Xuanda's line of defense, and went straight to Beijing.Governor Xuanda didn't listen to Yang Bo's order, and didn't flank Al Dahan. Beijing was in a state of panic, and there were only 6 defenders. Jiajing hid behind the city wall shivering~shaking.

That was also the most dangerous moment during the Jiajing Dynasty.

Thinking of this, Jiajing could only admit cowardice.

Yang Bo made it very clear, if you don't waste your money, the emperor, you may have to sacrifice your life.

Although money is important, compared with life, life is still more important.

Jiajing could only cry, and gave Yang Bo another 500 million to repair the Great Wall, and one or two more was gone.

But Jiajing still couldn't keep the remaining 500 million.

Because this time it is a Taoist priest who wants to make alchemy.

Alchemy consumed almost all of Jiajing's savings, because all the materials for alchemy were geniuses and treasures, and Taoist priests had to be greedy, Jiajing, a big fat sheep, was a scam.

The remaining 500 million were wiped out again, and replaced with various medicinal materials.

As soon as Jiajing turned around, he found that the wind had blown the shells of the eggs, and the money was gone, and the people were happy, and there was no money again.

If it wasn't for being poor again, he wouldn't have been so relaxed this time, passing Yan Song's Kaihai proposal.

Thinking of this, Yan Song couldn't help laughing.

With such a prodigal emperor on the stall, he, the chief assistant who can make money, is like a hen who can lay golden eggs, and he can't afford not to be reused.

In fact, Yuan Shijiao, Guan Yingzhen, Yang Bo and others who went to Iron Rooster Jiajing to ask for money were secretly "pointed" by Yan Song, telling them that the emperor has money at this time, and he may not be rich in another year. Well, you should ask for money as early as possible, and tell them how to blackmail the emperor so that he has to pay.

With the guidance of the chief assistant, this group of talents swarmed up like wolves, and ate the big dog Jiajing until he wanted to cry without tears, and his pockets were cleaner than his face.

These courtiers of the Ming Dynasty, when they met everyone, they said that they could not let the emperor become bad if he had money. They expanded their self-inflated, overhauled the palace and the mausoleum, and passed down a bad name to future generations.They spoke convincingly, euphemistically saying that they want to send to Jun Yao and Shun, and while the emperor has money, they can help the emperor spend it together!Resolutely remove the possibility of the emperor going bad.

After Jiajing Doubi's face was clean, he recently went to the inner library sadly.

Huang Jin: "Your Majesty, what are you doing in the inner treasury?"

Jiajing looked lonely: "I'm going to mourn my money."
