Sit back and reap the rewards

Chapter 81

This honest and upright Mr. Yu may not have golden fingers, but it does not prevent him from becoming a good warehouse keeper.

When he was in charge of the household department, he didn't find anything else, but he noticed one thing. People from the treasury often came to borrow money. Of course, Kangxi agreed to borrow money. The problem was that after observing for a while and opening the accounts, he found that There is one thing, only those who borrowed money did not repay it.

Moreover, after he checked the entire treasury, he found that half of the treasury silver had been borrowed.

So since yesterday, he no longer agreed to borrow money, and before those who wanted to borrow money came to trouble him, he explained it publicly at the next day's court.

"Your Majesty, the national treasury of silver is only half of what is on the books. If this continues, all the silver will be borrowed in the future. What do you rely on for disaster relief and sending troops? And only those who borrowed money did not repay it. Could it be said that all the officials in the Qing Dynasty Will it always be beyond our means? The emperor's original good intentions turned out to be that they all regarded the national treasury as their own warehouse, so I hope that the debts can be paid off as soon as possible, otherwise there will be disaster victims, and the national treasury may not be able to bear it .”

Yu Chenglong originally came to the Ministry of Households to hope to save as much as possible. He dare not say tens of millions of silver, but he can have a little bit. He hopes to rebuild the embankment in his lifetime, otherwise he really has no face. To meet the many people who have suffered because of him.

At the same time, Guo Xiu, the iron-faced censor, also stood up, and everyone agreed with Yu Jackie's proposal.

But when everyone heard this, their heads broke out in cold sweat. It would be a lie to say that no one noticed this matter, but those who knew did not say anything.

Of course, although April Fourth was in charge of the household department, it took only two or three years for him to take office.But he has a lot of things, and because of his personal factors a few years ago, and he didn't observe it in detail when he went to the household department, and he was not always on the front line last year, so he didn't notice it on April [-]th.

However, it has always been kept secret, so all the princes in history have discovered that it has been more than 40 years since Kangxi was revealed, and it is only 36 years since Kangxi, and Kangxi is also in his prime. The situation of the national treasury is also much better than that of more than 40 years.

When this incident happened, Kangxi was furious. He has always been a person who pursues perfection. He also knew that the salaries of officials were not high, but he never thought that a benevolent government he thought would become what it is now. If Yu Chenglong hadn't found out , In a few years, the national treasury will be empty. If so, what will he use in the future.

These slaves have all their ideas on his master, which is really tolerable and unbearable.

All the courtiers did not speak. They knew that this topic could not be picked up casually. This was an errand that offended people, and not one or two were offended. It can be said that there are not many officials who have not borrowed money.

Kangxi looked down and there was no one answering, only Yu Chenglong and Guo Xiu said that they must hurry up to recover the owed money.

"Yinfeng, what do you think?"

Yinfeng was also cursing in his heart, Yu Chenglong, what kind of trouble did you make, why do you bring this up if you have nothing to do.

It's simple to say, Yinreng borrowed 20 taels of silver from the treasury, as if to build a garden in Tongzhou.

Although he made a lot of money from the hot springs, he never thought of returning it.

In Yinreng's view, the country will belong to him in the future, didn't he just take a few taels of silver in advance?As the crown prince of the Qing Dynasty, he still has this power.

But now that Kangxi asked, of course he couldn't answer like that.

"Reporting to Emperor Ama, my son thought that the money owed must be repaid, and the treasury cannot be without money."

Yinfeng at least understands that he must have an attitude. Of course, the operation after that is another matter.

"What do you mean!"

Since Kangxi asked the question, of course he did not dare to raise any objections, nor could he raise any objections.

Repaying debts is justified, and this is true everywhere.

"The ministers fully agree."

"Since everyone has no objection, you discovered Yu Chenglong's matter, then you are responsible for pursuing it. If someone does not return it, Guo Xiu, the censor can start the crime of dereliction of duty. Yinzhen, you are in charge of the household department. Brother, you come to the Prime Minister for this matter."

Kangxi's tone was set well, and Guo Xiu's participation made many people panic. This stern censor only wants his reputation and not his life.And the emperor has already mentioned the crime of dereliction of duty, so some people wanted to think carefully, thinking that they should go back and collect more money to pay back the accounts.

Yinzhen was angry at first, but he didn't notice such a big matter in the household department. It was his dereliction of duty. Although he also knew that the debt collection matter would offend many people, but if he compromised, he would not be Yinzhen.

Although Yinzhen lost his original memory, his temperament has not changed. The more oppressed he is, the less he will admit defeat.

"Your minister leads the decree!" Just when Yinzhen wanted to find Kangxi alone and then go deeper, Yu Chenglong spoke again.

"Your Majesty, there are a lot of borrowers in the clan. It's not enough for the fourth master to hold the line. Moreover, if the royal family doesn't take the lead, it is estimated that the officials will become a wait-and-see attitude."

Yu Chenglong is now willing to risk everything, his life no longer belongs to him, his goal is to collect the money to repair the embankment, whoever dares to stop him, that is to meet the gods and kill the gods, meet the demons and subdue the demons.

Kangxi stroked his forehead with his hand, why did he remember to put Yu Chenglong in the household department? He originally thought that with such an upright official like him, many people who want money would have more scruples, and it would be easier to do something for the common people Facts.

But now, it's hard for me to do it right after I took office.

Although Kangxi had some headaches, he felt that Yu Chenglong discovered it early, so he said that he was the right person. Of course, Kangxi also knew that Yu Chenglong didn't care about anything now, so he was not afraid of offending anyone, but since someone reached out and crossed the line, If you misinterpret my good intentions, you will naturally be punished to a certain extent.

"What Aiqing said is also reasonable. I will give you a Shangfang sword. Give all debtors three months. If you have not paid off by then, then you can handle it yourself."

"Thank you Lord Ron!"

Yinzhen was also happy. With Shangfang's sword, it showed Huang Ama's determination, and I believe things should be much easier to handle.

Yu Chenglong also knew that the eldest brother and the prince were among the big borrowers. Fortunately, he was not stupid enough to tell the two of them on such an occasion. There was a click.

Soon the news spread, Shou Qi's reaction was very simple, this is a good thing!In the future, Yinzhen won't have to work so hard, and when Yongzheng ascends the throne, the treasury should no longer be short of money, so he won't have to die on the throne.

But what Lan Ting thought was that it seemed that the situation of the imperial court would change in the future, maybe because of this Yinzhen would not have to follow the path of Yongzheng.

The two really have completely different ideas!
Of course, Lan Ting overlooked one point, that is, Yongzheng was reborn, and it is impossible for him to recover his memory forever. If Yinzhen remembered everything, then he would not go on the path of his previous life, but he is sure that the pace of final reform will definitely be faster. big.
