Chapter 301 Yuan Shangshu’s troubles
Emperor Mingcheng turned to Qin Chi and asked, "Qin Qi''an, donate the gold I rewarded. What''s going on?"
"this…"
Qin Chi stood up and stood beside the Minister of Revenue, and took a step back a little, "Your Majesty, this is what the inner son means."
Emperor Mingcheng was surprised: "Isn''t your idea?"
"It''s really not. I have no achievements, but I received a large amount of gold rewarded by His Majesty. My inner brother asked me if I am sorry... To be honest, I am really guilty of it."
Qin Chi stood up and bowed to Emperor Mingcheng, and said in fear and fear, "I am just a woman who is not familiar with the affairs of the court. She is arbitrarily proposing to donate in the name of Your Majesty and all the masters in the palace, begging Your Majesty to forgive her for her crime of usurpation."
"This is a good deed, what crime is there?"
Emperor Mingcheng looked at the list again with great interest, and saw some tricks from the list alone, "Your wife has a brilliant heart. Xia Aiqing, do you think so?"
"Miss Qin was concerned about the disaster-stricken people in Taihu Lake, and he was also aware of repaying favors but not seeking fame and fortune. He was a strange woman." Xia Wei responded sincerely.
She obviously donated all the rewards she received, but she left one for everyone to reward her, as if she had accepted the wishes of others. Others could not make any mistakes when they saw her.
Actually, Xia Wei didn''t say it.
This time Song Jin''s move helped him a lot. He was originally worried about preparing for disaster relief money and supplies.
Now things are about to be resolved!
Your Majesty has donated money, will other people dare not donate?
Qin Chi hurriedly said a few more humble words.
But he deliberately mentioned Song Jin today, just to make her have a good impression in front of Emperor Ming Cheng.
It will be easier to act in the future.
Soon, Qin Chi realized what an old minister praised others'' skills.
Xia Wei talked to Emperor Ming Cheng about the flood in Taihu Lake, mentioned the affected people, and then praised Emperor Ming Cheng for donating money without a trace. It was a blessing for the people of Taihu Lake, and would definitely be loved by all people, etc.
The praises were sincere.
If Qin Chi hadn''t understood, he would have almost believed it.
He felt that he had learned it.
Emperor Mingcheng held his face.
But from the eyes, we can see that we were in a good mood and even recruited young eunuchs to let them pay attention to the movements of the Ministry of Revenue. Not long after, a young **** came to report that Duke Ning and his family donated 800 taels of food to the Ministry of Revenue.
"This old guy is sensible."
Emperor Cheng of Ming liked the tactfulness of Ning Guogong. No matter what he wanted to do, Ning Guogong was always the first to jump out to support him. Therefore, Emperor Cheng of Ming, who was in a good mood, Liu Xia Wei and Qin Chi had lunch together.
It was only half a day.
No matter how thoughts the capital is, they come to the Ministry of Revenue to donate money, grain and clothing. The Ministry of Revenue also publicized this matter in the city, saying that the donated grain and clothing are not related to the old and the old, and that it can be eaten or used.
Donations are now a trend.
The wealthier people in the city donated old clothes they had not worn before.
Wait for the two to leave the palace.
Xia Wei returned to the Ministry of Revenue.
Qin Chi moved to the Hanlin Academy, talked to Yan Xianqing in private, and then went back to the Ministry of Works. My colleagues I met along the way became much more enthusiastic about Qin Chi.
"Mr. Qin, what a coincidence. Have you had lunch?"
"Mr. Qin, look at your red face, I think there is a happy event."
"Mr. Qin is valued by His Majesty. The future will surely be bright. Don''t forget each other if you are rich or noble." The man patted Qin Chi''s shoulder, his eyes both envious and sour.
In the past, these people learned that Qin Chi had offended Yuan Shangshu, so they avoided Qin Chi. They had to contact him because of work, and they were also an official attitude. Qin Chi thought about the reasons for the change of everyone.
First of all, it may be a donation from the Ministry of Revenue.
Secondly, it may be because he stayed with Emperor Ming Cheng for half a day and had another meal.
In the eyes of these people, Qin Chi was attracted by Emperor Cheng of Ming and a minister valued by Emperor Cheng of Ming. Or maybe these people saw value in him.
Qin Chi responded freely to this.
He has already handled Yu Hengsi’s affairs.
The old items in stock were sorted out, and Qin Ba and others had already taken them away and converted them into silver and included them in the account. The neat spirit made the people from the other three departments very jealous.
The matter was sorted into a book and handed over to the Minister Wang.
Mr. Wang checked it and there was no problem, so he sent it to Mr. Yuan for review.
Yuan Shangshu said to Wang Shilang: "I asked Yu Hengsi to produce 200,000 military cotton jackets before winter, and I sent them to the northwest, so that Qin Langzhong would hurry up."
Mr. Wang wants to say that he is here.
Now it is autumn, and the cotton jackets used to rush for military service cannot be completed at all according to the speed of Yu Hengsi''s previous work. What''s more, the stock of cotton in stock is far from enough.
Qin Chi received this task and accepted the official document and asked, "Mr. Wang, Yu Hengsi''s account is not enough."
"How much money is missing? If you write a order, we will go to the Ministry of Revenue to apply."
"That''s so bad." Qin Chi''s words were very short.
Mr. Wang also understood.
Now everyone is short of money, especially when Emperor Cheng of Ming ordered the bad debts to be cleared. There will be no shortage of bad accounts. In addition, Taihu Lake is flooding every year, and there is no exception this year. It is a well-known fact that the Ministry of Revenue lacks silver.
The silver from the treasury was often misappropriated by Emperor Ming Cheng and could not be counted on at all.
Qin Chi said helplessly: "A good cook cannot cook without rice. Without money, I can''t do anything here."
"Go to contact the person first?"
Mr. Wang knew that this was Yuan Shangshu who was deliberately making things difficult for him, but he was an accomplice. "I mean I asked someone to use credit with the merchant first, and fill it in immediately after the money is down."
Qin Chi did not agree, but said, "I will ask someone to use the existing cotton and cloth in the warehouse first. As for the subsequent questions, it depends on when the money will come."
"Okay, you do it first."
Mr. Wang couldn''t bear to go see Qin Chi.
This task is almost impossible to complete.
It’s very fast to talk about time, and it’s not that easy to apply for money from the Ministry of Revenue.
It is strange that Xia Weina people can criticize.
Qin Chi put the silver required for cotton clothes in previous years on a list, and also marked the price that might affect Taihu Lake disaster. Mr. Wang was perfunctorily holding the order and leaving.
Qin Chi suddenly called Wang Shilang, "Mr. Wang, this is wrong. It''s winter. Are cotton clothes really sent to the northwest? If they want to send to the northwest, they should be completed in the first half of the year."
Change the system according to this time.
After this batch of cotton clothes were completed, they were sent to the northwest to pass the New Year''s Eve.
Mr. Wang twitched his lips, "I''ll inform you if Lord Shangshu ordered this. The supplies sent to the northwest were set off earlier, but Lord Shangshu said that there was still a shortage of 200,000 and it needs to be replenished before the end of the year. He delayed this matter due to his confinement. Okay, what will Lord Zhu tell me? Just do it."
Qin Chi knew it was a problem that was left behind by Yuan Shangshu.
Mr. Wang left not long ago.
The person has turned back.
