In the Nuan Pavilion, everyone suddenly lost their breath.
It was like deathly silence, people were silent.
Emperor Hongzhi’s face suddenly lost all color.
Fifteen millionor two. How many days did it take me to save a few million taels of silverAm Ihearing something?
Then, someone started breathing, breathing heavily.
Wang Ao's face turned pale, and he said sternly: "What fifteen million taels? Shouning Hou, don't talk nonsense, this is not a joke."
Zhang Heling thought it was better to tell the truth honestly.
"The gold, silver, jewelry and spices I brought back from this trip were conservatively calculated and amounted to more than 2,000 yuan in silver. In addition to paying customs duties, there is another 20%. They are the goods of the imperial court. After doing business with others, the profits gained must be paid to the imperial court. , the rest, I will all be divided among others."
This time, it was made clear enough.
Wang Ao suddenly felt a sweetness in his throat, and a mouthful of old blood was about to spurt out.
"Where's the abacus? Where's the abacus?"
Zhu Houzhao shouted.
"" It was a good thing that the prince didn't scream, but when he screamed, Wang Ao couldn't hold it back and spat out a mouthful of bloody phlegm.
Fang Jifan said: "No need to calculate, I am good at mental arithmetic. This is not simple. Thirty percent is given to the court. No, it is given to the inner treasury now. The rest is divided. The divided amount is one thousand five hundred taels. So, What goes into the inner treasury is more than six million taels of silver, your majesty gets 80%, and I have 20% here. In this way, I get more than one million taels, and the inner treasury gets about five million taels of silver."
Fang Jifan began to calculate quickly: "But you can't calculate it like this. Just like spices, although they are good, because so many spices were imported at once, the price of these spices will fall, and they will definitely not be sold at the original price. , therefore, we have to reduce it by another 20 to 30% on this basis, roughly Your Majesty still has four million, and I have one million."
Phew
"That fifteen million taels, even if you just don't care about it.
In other words, after this trip, the only thing that will be turned over to the internal treasury is two years’ annual income.
Emperor Hongzhi finally figured this out.
His heartis bleeding.
????银子啊,分了,这该死的寿宁侯,他怎么就分走了这么多,他倒是大方哪,他……他……
But immediately, Emperor Hongzhi became elated again.
Earn it?
Fang Jifan was really right, sailing to the West was a very profitable business.
After Emperor Hongzhi experienced a brief heartache, his eyes suddenly lit up.
Got rich.
My internal funds have been enriched.
Build ships, build more ships, let more people go to sea, earn more money, and then build more and more ships, let more people go to sea
Emperor Hongzhi cheered up and suddenly became energetic and his eyes shone brightly.
"This young man, Jifan, has great vision. He is worthy of being my chosen son-in-law. I have no regrets about having such a son-in-law."
Fang Jifan was delighted, this was money he picked up in vain, buthow much did the Zhang brothers earn? These two guys, being so stingy, must have hidden a lot of benefits. They will have to report it to His Majesty later and let the factory guards check it out. Check, this is money from the inner treasury. You two brothers dare to hide it privately. You are so audacious that I can't kill you.
……
Wang Ao was shocked.
He was a little dazed. He felt that his whole body had no strength and his limbs were limp.
What does this mean?
“Could this mean that he gave away millions of his income to the palace?
The treasurythe treasury saved one million taels and lost five to six million taels?
Suddenly, he felt that his brain was cramping.
“It’s impossible, I don’t believe it.
How can there be so much silver in the world? Is there any way to pick up this silver? It's a strategy, it must be a strategy.
…………
Liu Jian and others' faces turned dark, and they all looked at Wang Ao.
The memorial was written by you, Wang Ao!
When Xu Jing saw Shouning Hou mentioning this matter, he calmed down, cheered up, and said: "Your Majesty, what Shouning Hou reported is true. I have the customs clearance document here, and the accounts have been calculated. Please check it, Your Majesty. In addition, this reward isAfter hearing this, I was even more surprised.
You must know that when an emperor wants to build a palace, he often needs a lot of noble wood. Especially to make palace pillars, he must have high-quality wood, and it must be extremely strong. A good wood may need to be found in Yunnan and Guizhou. , then cut it down, process it, and then transport it to the capital by countless people by water and land. But he had never heard of a sacred tree that dozens of people could not hold. If there were so many sacred trees in the Golden Continent, how could this product be so rich? It's not ten times better than Middle-earth.
Emperor Hongzhi said in surprise: "I heard that the Ming Dynasty occupies the middle land, with thousands of miles of fertile fields, and is the blessed land of the four seas. Our Ming Dynasty is the country in the middle, and everything can be self-sufficient. But now I listen to what you said, isn't that the case? The products of Golden Continent are far superior to those of Ming Dynasty.”
The Kingdom of the Middle is so confident that everyone thinks it is a stinker. This is the self-confidence accumulated over hundreds of thousands of years. Although this self-confidence is a bit inflated, to be honest, whoever takes such a good advantage The land is more than a hundred times richer than other surrounding sub-civilizations, so it is inevitable that they will have the idea of ????self-centeredness.
Even though Zheng He visited countless countries during his voyages to the West and understood their customs and customs clearly, the Ming Dynasty still looked down on the countries along the Western Ocean with a condescending attitude. You may not know how poor our Western brothers are. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
