Emperor Ming's grandson

Chapter 417
The emperor has enough prestige, which naturally means that it will be easier to do some things.

Whether it is the Shibo Department or the bank, it is not particularly difficult for Zhu Yunying to reform or formulate some rules.After all, Zhang Yang now holds great power, and he doesn't need to think about fighting with the courtiers as a whole, he can take some drastic measures.

The Ministry of Finance is quite excited now, although it seems that the establishment of the bank has weakened the rights of some people.However, the emergence of the bank department also made the power of the Ministry of Accounting appear to be greater.

This is definitely a good thing, the Ministry of Households has such responsibilities, and this is what they should do.

"I am determined to reform the system." Zhu Yunying looked at Yu Xin and said earnestly, "The country's finances are getting stronger and stronger, and you should not be complacent. The matter of money is a test of people's hearts. Even though the bank handles money, it should do a good job of self-examination .”

Naturally, Yu Xin didn't have the slightest opinion. The bank department set up a separate department in the household department.These days, the emperor has put forward some requirements and plans for the bank, which naturally means that more people understand the special nature of the bank.

Although there was Jiaozi in the Song Dynasty, there were also some banks in the past.However, the difference between a bank and a bank is not only that the bank accepts deposits but does not accept cash, but even pays depositors interest.

Moreover, the bank seems to have some meaning of pawn shop.If you want to borrow money from a bank, you will naturally need to pay interest, and you also need to do a series of reviews to ensure that the bank cannot lose money, etc.

There is naturally a lot of knowledge in it. For example, the withdrawals of bank depositors cannot be forged stubs.It is also necessary to ensure that depositors withdraw money, and it must be used everywhere, so as to ensure the convenience of depositors, which is also one of the necessity for the existence of banks.

After the officials of the household department left, Zhu Yunying said to Zhu Yunxie, "Tomorrow, you remember to communicate with the clan's mansion. If each mansion intends to take a stake in the bank, it must also take out some gold and silver. The bank is short of silver now. If Banks are useless without money in the treasury."

Zhu Yunxi looked at Zhu Yunying, and asked a little strangely, "Brother Emperor, didn't you say that the bank is like a shipping department, and the clan receives salaries according to their rank?"

The Shibo Department has indeed given the clan a lot of convenience, like Zhu Yunxi, who has cooperated with his two imperial sisters and two aunts, and formed a fleet that is neither too large nor too small. Go to Nanyang.

But in addition to the money directly earned by the Shibo Department, a certain amount of salary is also received from the Shibo Department every year.It is slightly less than the support given by the imperial court, but as long as the clans are not extravagant, the output of the Shibo Division alone is enough to make them live well.

"You can't say that." Zhu Yunying laughed and said, "The bank is sensitive after all. Although the clan has the right to supervise, it's just that it's not easy to do much. We intend to give preferential treatment to the clan, but you should also understand that we can't Giving many benefits for no reason!"

Zhu Yunxi seemed to understand, and said, "Brother Huang, our clan is also the owner of the bank, so we should pay some money."

"That's the truth, as long as you know it." Zhu Yunying laughed and said to Zhu Yunxie, "You also know that there are quite a few of us in the clan who are considerate of us. It's just that there are some who just think about their own interests. .”

Zhu Yunxi nodded again and again, although he always dared not say much about his brother's becoming emperor.It's just that Zhu Yunxi also understands that some of his uncles sometimes put on airs, or get angry occasionally.

What's more, the clans of the old Zhu's family are not all virtuous kings.A "virtuous king" like Zhu Yunqi can be regarded as the least in the clan.There are not a small number of clans like Zhu Gui, the king of the dynasty, who are rampant and lawless, second only to representatives of the dandy clans like Zhu Yunxie.

"This time we won't give you any money. We will give you as much benefit as you have in your house and as much as your shareholding." Zhu Yunying said with a smile, and reminded Zhu Yunxi, "You have to be smart, your little money is also worth it." It’s just a drop in the bucket. Don’t look at the small number of shares, after all, the court has the bottom line, understand?”

Zhu Yunxie's eyes lit up, and he said to Zhu Yunying, "Brother Emperor, besides ranking, it also depends on the number of members?"

"There are also some restrictions, and it is impossible to give you too much." Zhu Yunying laughed and said, "Go back and find someone to go to the Ministry of Household Affairs to ask. If it is done better here, Wen Geng and his brothers will have no worries about food and clothing."

Zhu Yunxi murmured, "In the first place, there is no need to worry about food and clothing, and the court's support is enough."

What else is there to say, it is also true.Don't look at the fact that the support of the clan was cut twice during Lao Zhu's time, but the treatment of the clan in the Ming Dynasty today is unprecedented. Lao Zhu is really good to the clan.

As for Zhu Yunying, he didn't have anything to complain about. The current clan would not impose any burden on the court's finances.After all, the number of clans is increasing, but overall the number is still a drop in the bucket.

The most important thing is that after Zhu Yunying's unremitting efforts, Lao Zhu not only cut off the treatment of some clans, but also did not receive salaries from the imperial court for generations.

Let's not talk about downgrading, and Junzi Zhize was beheaded for the fifth generation. Even after the fifth or sixth generation, the court does not need to consider the number of people who are getting more and more terrifying.Although the overall number of clans will increase to a certain extent, there are also certain restrictions, and it will not just snowball and grow larger.

Looking at his younger brother, Zhu Yunying continued, "The crown prince will leave the palace in a few days, so you will go with him when the time comes. Watch your nephew and restrain the clan. At that time, your imperial sisters will also go with you, and they will help you Let your sister-in-law take a look at the clan and honored women."

Zhu Yunxie immediately felt embarrassed, and said coyly, "Brother Huang, we also lack two side concubines here. If there are good-looking ones, let the emperor's wife take care of them for us?"

Zhu Yunying was angry and funny, and said angrily, "Go find your imperial sister, even if they say you are greedy for money and lust, they should help you!"

This is really a fact, even if Zhu Xi and Zhu Yue will complain that Zhu Yunxi is greedy for money and lustful.But if their younger brother's heirs are prosperous, they must be happy to see it happen.

If their husband wants to take concubines, they probably won't stop them too much, after all, it's not easy to bear the reputation of being 'jealous'.But this matter will not be so easy. Do you really think that becoming a son-in-law will allow you to have three wives and four concubines?
But if my younger brother wants more concubines, he must be encouraged.After all, in their opinion, Sang's isn't very pretty, at most she's pretty, and Sang's temper isn't too good either, they already felt that their brother had been wronged.

Zhu Yunxi laughed, and said to Zhu Yunying, "Then we know, let's say it was the emperor's will, and say that our descendants are now weak."

Looking at this lazy brother, Zhu Yunying really didn't know what to say.As an elder brother, it seems that he can only help Zhu Yunxi take the blame.Fortunately, Zhu Yunying was the emperor, so no one dared to blame him.

"This is also the reason, you have to work harder." Zhu Yunying looked at Zhu Yunxi with a smile and said, "Look at us, now we have two sons and a daughter, and Yunwen now has three sons and a daughter. We brothers, Now that's what you almost mean."

To be honest, Zhu Yunqi is still the "most promising" of the great Zhu's heirs in this respect.Although he doesn't have as many wives and concubines as Zhu Yunying, Zhu Yunzheng is really capable of giving birth.

Zhu Yunxi began to mutter, "We have a headache when we have one child, and if we have a few more children, we are afraid that we will not be able to live in peace. Brother Huang didn't know that yesterday the child dropped another ornament from us."

Zhu Yunying hurriedly waved away people, he knew what his younger brother was thinking, if he continued to say this, it would probably be a drama of crying poor.At that time, maybe they will have to take some things out of the palace again.

Zhu Yunxi was a little disappointed, the number of times he attacked was not infrequent, and most of the time he could go back with something.But this time he didn't get what he wanted, it seemed that Brother Huang had seen through his tricks and directly stopped him from continuing.

Little Zhu happily appeared on a pony, and was very happy to see Zhu Yunxie, "Second Uncle, Great-Grandfather asked you to go to his place."

Zhu Yunxie's expression changed, and he asked quickly, "Nephew, you have to tell second uncle, why did your great-great-grandfather ask us to go there? We didn't make a mistake, so is your great-great-grandfather happy today?"

Little Zhu was very proud, and said to Zhu Yunxie, "Grandfather Gao is the happiest today. Let's perform martial arts with him. Grandfather Gao said we are the best, even better than our father!"

Zhu Yunxi looked at the Hall of Martial Heroes, and didn't mind saying bad things, "Your father likes martial arts the most, and we knew it when we were young. Your great-great-grandfather and your imperial grandfather used to say that if your father is a Martial Emperor, we don't think so. And your uncle Grandpa is the same, he has no stupid talent."

"Granduncle doesn't know martial arts." Little Zhu also said immediately, "Grandfather Gao said, our uncle will do it. Cousin Mu's can do it too, and cousin Feng's can do it too."

Zhu Yunxi glanced at Little Zhu who was riding on horseback, and muttered, "Grandpa Huang is really, he will tell you everything. Just like your father, Grandpa Huang will not hide anything from you, and will not tell us anything. "

Zhu Yunxi is probably used to this kind of differential treatment, because he has seen these things since he was a child.

Arriving at the Qianqing Palace with his eldest nephew, Zhu Yunxi immediately bowed obediently, and inevitably trembled a little.As far as Zhu Yunxi knew, the one who would not be afraid in front of the emperor's grandfather might be his father, his emperor's brother, and his nephew who was getting older.

He watched his elder nephew climb up onto Lao Zhu's shoulder and sit there, and he watched Lao Zhu tease little Zhu kindly.Zhu Yunxi was even more frightened, even our father probably didn't climb onto the shoulders of the emperor's grandfather.

I have heard that Grandpa Huang wanted to let Brother Huang sit on his shoulders and back, but Brother Huang was not happy.

So, the eldest nephew is still promising!
