The eldest prince is very excited today, it shouldn't be said that everyone who knows about the map is very excited.Because the news has been obtained, the emperor will announce the confirmed minerals and the map presented by the prince this morning.This means that they can carry out the next thing, instead of just planning without substantive development.

The eldest prince's face was full of red today, and the crown prince also had a smile on his face, not to mention the other princes, who also looked happy.Even the fourth prince's paralyzed face felt softer today.Those in the court who knew the reason were very happy.When Shangshu of Hubu went to court, he met the eldest prince.Seeing the eldest prince's face full of red light, his heart suddenly skipped a beat.

Especially seeing that the eldest prince's smile didn't change when he met the prince, I felt even more strange in my heart.Although it's been a while since the crown prince and the eldest prince confronted each other, because of this, the lives of officials in the court are much easier.But seeing them like this today, Hubu Shangshu always felt that something was going on between them, it felt weird.

Broken, Hubu Shangshu thought to himself.The big thing that happened recently was those minerals, especially the newly discovered gold and silver mines.When Hubu Shangshu heard the news, he was so excited that he didn't sleep well for several days.The Ministry of War and the Ministry of Industry only know that they want money from the Ministry of Households, but they don't know that the treasury is empty.

There is also a part of the money reserved for use when natural and man-made disasters occur there.Knowing that a new gold and silver mine was discovered, Hubu Shangshu breathed a sigh of relief.The treasury is finally able to have money, and I don't need to sew here and there to mend it, because I am afraid that when the money must be needed that day, I will not be able to get it out.Then my family became scapegoats for this matter.

Hubu Shangshu thought to himself that it was bad, they must be eyeing those gold and silver mines!Really, it hasn't been mined yet, so I'm eyeing it again.Hubu Shangshu secretly decided that this time, no matter what he said, he couldn't let them give up the gold and silver mine that hadn't been mined yet.As the saying goes, if you have money in your hand, you don't panic.I have been panicking for so many years, and finally I can stop panicking.I must hold on, and I must not let them take the money out of my hands easily.

If the Minister of the Household Department really guessed right this time, those princes are not eyeing the money from the gold and silver mines.The eldest prince wants to send troops to fight as soon as possible, even if he fights, he can support the war with the war and solve the expenses of the troops.But those preparations at the beginning of the battle, don't they still cost money?

The fourth prince wants to propose to rebuild the embankment, which also requires money.Not to mention the prince, how can you not need money to realize your dream.Although the prince has accumulated a lot in previous lives, it can be said that the money in the prince's space is more than the emperor's private house plus the private houses of all the princes.But at this juncture, the prince can't just appear a large sum of money out of thin air.Attract the attention of the emperor and other princes, and cause trouble for the cause you want to do

When morning time came, everyone stood where they were supposed to stand.After the emperor came in, after everyone saluted.The emperor opened his mouth and said, "Recently, all the ministers have heard about the new discovery of some minerals by the imperial court." After that, he asked Director Yu to report the location and type of the discovered minerals and the approximate output of some minerals. .

The people below heard the excitement. After all, even if they knew that the court had discovered many new minerals, they didn't know the specific situation.Some time ago, even if the number of minerals was guessed a lot, now it sounds like there are so many.The courtiers were a little shocked when they heard this.

After Director Yu finished speaking, the emperor looked at the faces of the people below.Nodding in satisfaction, he paused and said, "These minerals are all to be mined, now let's hear what plan you have."

Hubu Shangshu took a step forward and said: "My Majesty, I believe that the gold and silver mines should be mined first to replenish the empty treasury." idea.But when the words came to his lips, thinking that the emperor was in a good mood now, these words were a bit inappropriate, and they might offend the emperor, so he didn't say anything.

The servant of the household department took a step forward and said: "This year's corvee has not been collected yet, it is better to let those migrant workers to mine nearby."

A minister stepped forward and said, "No, the corvée is only for such a long time, and not much can be mined. If the news spreads, the improper defense here will easily attract thieves to steal gold and silver."

Another minister stepped forward and said, "You can let the military department go there to set up defense first, and then talk about such a big matter as digging gold and silver mines, you can't hide it from anyone."

"I also think that those who have been confiscated can dig first. While they are digging, they are looking for some people to dig. In this way, after the corvee over there is over, the people who dig ore here will also be found. "

A member of the military department stood up and said: "After mining gold and silver mines, iron mines can be mined immediately. These years, the army has consumed a lot of weapons and needs to supplement them with iron."

A minister thought to himself, you are kidding me.The country has been peaceful these years, even if there are some minor disturbances at the border.The weapons will not be damaged so much, and the mines previously exploited in the country can fully suffice.How could it be necessary to increase the mining of iron ore? I don't know what the Ministry of War is doing.

After some discussion, a mineral mining charter was finally set.However, there was a problem with the selection of candidates. Some ministers said: "Now that there are so many minerals all at once, if we want to mine them all, it is better to let officials near the mines manage them nearby."

Some ministers said: "It's okay to let officials manage it nearby, but we need to send some special commissioners to assist."

Others said: "We can't let officials manage nearby. First, local officials have their own affairs to do and don't have so much time. Second, they have never managed mines before, so they are afraid of problems. Furthermore, the local The officials are appointed every three years. Frequent changes of managers are not good for the mining of the mine.”

In fact, there is another meaning inside and outside the words, that is, I am afraid that those officials will attack those mines. There is a problem of corruption in this.There are also things like iron ore, which are under the supervision of the state. It would be bad if there were any problems.

In the end, the emperor said that it would be discussed after pressure, and asked the ministers to make a note and recommend some candidates.
