I want to be a grandson

Chapter 185

So in Zhu Yuanzhang's view, the role of his small treasury is to subsidize the court.

Now that Zhu Yuanzhang is so impartial and selfless, he can't be stingy anymore!

Zhu Yunxie said with a smile: "Whether it's the internal treasury or the treasury of the Ministry of Households, it's all for Daming. Why do you have to divide it so clearly..."

According to the current situation, there is no difference whether it is placed in the internal treasury or the national treasury!

But Zhu Yuanzhang never thought that his descendants would do the exact opposite!

Since the mid-Ming Dynasty, emperors of all generations have attached great importance to and stingy with private property.

Not only did they repeatedly refuse to distribute the "internal treasury" or "internal money" to save the precarious court finances, but they also kept withdrawing silver taels from the "Taiku" of the Ministry of Households to satisfy the royal family's extravagant life, so that the treasury dried up.

Therefore, in the last period of the Ming Dynasty, it was unable to resist the Liaodong Jurchen's attack externally, and it was unable to extinguish Li Zicheng's rebellion internally.

In the end, the desperate Emperor Chongzhen had no choice but to hang himself on Meishan to end his dynasty.

"Thank you, Your Highness..." Yu Xin and Fu Youwen saluted.

It can be said that Zhu Yunxi has given them enough face, if they continue to entangle, they will be ignorant of good and evil!

Yu Xin and Fu Youwen bid farewell to Zhu Yunxi, and then walked towards their private house.

"Do you think His Highness will turn the official kiln into a private kiln?!"

The two were walking when Yu Xin suddenly turned around and said.

Fu Youwen dodged in a hurry, and the two almost collided.

Fu Youwen smiled wryly after hearing the words: "That was originally the imperial equipment factory, which was specially supplied to the palace. What can we do, don't think so much..."

Yu Xin said unwillingly: "I think that Lin Zheng is also capable, otherwise Wei Guogong would not have recommended him, if His Highness said "Jingdezhen! "'s brand has become his internal treasury, and that property is not small..."

Fu Youwen patted him on the shoulder and said, "Don't think about it, His Highness is the King of Wu..."

Having said that, Yu Xin is no longer entangled.

If it is an ordinary vassal king, Yu Xin will definitely fight for it, after all, it is about court taxation.

If this is the King of Wu... Anyway, it is your old Zhu's country!

When people figured it out, they felt at ease, so they threw themselves into the tedious affairs of the household department.

……

As time went by, the capital became more and more lively.

There are many scholars in the market who are going to Beijing to rush for the exam. Where there are literati, there will be romance, poetry and songs, and there will be good food and wine.

Of course, the singer of the Qinhuai River must also be indispensable.

Moreover, the capital city is also a place where officials gather, whether they are neighbors, relatives and friends who are out of touch, or carrying letters for others, they always go to visit when they come to Beijing.

So for some scholars, during the period before the imperial examination, their lives were quite nourishing.

And some scholars from poor backgrounds don't have money to go out to play around, and they don't have so many close relationships to visit.

So I had no choice but to study quietly, in order to get a good reputation in the exam and shine on the lintel.

On the territory of the Ming Dynasty, businessmen from various state capitals also got the news.

Moreover, it was a notice issued by the Department of Commerce and Trade of the Ministry of Household Affairs, inviting them to gather in the capital.

Because the palace wine will be sold to the public soon!

And look for businesses to sell in various state capitals!
Firstly, it was issued by the government, and secondly, the sale of imperial wine represented great benefits!

So when they got the news, they immediately rushed to Yingtian Mansion without stopping, lest they be left behind!
On this day, a large number of people gathered in front of a restaurant next to the Department of Commerce and Trade of the Ministry of Household Affairs.

This restaurant does not belong to the government's property. Since the Department of Commerce and Trade moved here, it has been under the management of the Department of Commerce and Trade. After all, it is also an official store.

The people came here early to wait, and almost everyone brought a purse.

Some of them contained silver, some of them were precious banknotes, and some directly carried a large bag of copper coins.

They all stared at the restaurant anxiously, waiting anxiously.

Around the restaurant, soldiers and horses were also full of soldiers maintaining order, lest anything unexpected happen.

The commander of the Military and Horse Division knew that His Royal Highness King Wu attached great importance to the Commercial Division. If a tragedy happened in front of the Commercial Division, he would have to pay for it!
So he couldn't help being careless.

"Oh, why don't you open the door! My legs are sore from waiting."

"I waited all night last night! Just to buy a pot of royal wine!"

"Isn't it! It's worth waiting for as long as you want! I just don't know how many bottles I can buy with this money..."

"Oh... I can drink imperial wine today, this is a blessing I have cultivated in my life..."

"You can still drink it yourself. I bought it for the master, so I'm not lucky..."

Compared with the discussion of the common people, the merchants are more calm.

Obviously, these merchants were standing far away from the common people, as if watching with cold eyes.

"Isn't this the owner of Hengfa Company? Mr. Chen's family is very polite. You also came here for the imperial wine?"

"Isn't this the same as you... How much does Wang Dong's family think this royal wine can sell?"

"How do I know this, I have to look at everything again, don't be in a hurry..."

"Hehe..., I think, it's a pity that the family is not rich, so I'm afraid it's difficult..."

"I'm just watching the fun and gaining insights from everyone... I dare not think about it, I dare not think about it."

Amidst the humble voices of the businessmen, they all behaved like old foxes.

No one is willing to show their hole cards first!

And everyone knows that Yujiu must be profitable, but it is not known how much profit it will be.

Besides, no one has tasted the quality of this royal wine, so it's hard to jump to conclusions.

If the brand of Yujiu is just hung, but the quality of the wine is poor and difficult to swallow, then it will be difficult to continue in the near future.

Businessmen are always looking for money, so they need to think about it in many ways.

"Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang..."

A burst of gong sounded, immediately attracting everyone's attention to the restaurant.

At this time, a small official stood on the steps and said loudly: "Everyone! The current emperor is benevolent and loves the people.

At this time, a small official stood on the steps and said loudly: "Everyone, His Majesty is benevolent and loves the people. He cares about the treasures of the world and should share them with the people.
Therefore, the Department of Commerce and Trade was specially ordered to sell the royal wine "Golden Jade Liquid" to the public, in order to have fun with the people! "

The little official continued in a loud voice: "Everyone, be careful to know that there is no one in a million fine wines, and the quantity is really scarce...and the taste is full-bodied, with a sweet aftertaste...Because it is rare, in order to show the court's kindness, the special price is two One bottle!"

Hearing this, the people were not surprised.

Everyone knows that royal wine is hard to come by, and no amount of money can buy it, and you can enjoy it for a mere two pennies, which is really nothing!
Even if you don’t have the money to buy it, you don’t think it’s too expensive, because it’s worth the money!
