I am the king of the dead

Zhu Qiyu blinked, took the five silver coins from Xing'an, and said with emotion: "Miss Ran is No.1 who can make our Daming Jin Shangshu bribe!"

Jin Lian's tight grip was the master's idea to hit Neijin. He could take out these five silver coins just to avoid taking medicine. One can imagine how stinky it was.

"But you just added a piece of musk, and you fooled him?" Zhu Qiyu put down five silver coins, which must always be returned.

Zhu Qiyu smiled and said to Xing'an: "Didn't you accept Lu Zi only a gold ingot at the beginning, and then returned him a big gold ingot?"

"It's all bureaus here."

Jin Lian also fights with others all his life, but he has never fought against a little girl like Ran Siniang.

In fact, in the final analysis, the medicine is still useful, if it is useless, Ran Siniang will not come here.

"Look at the reward." Zhu Qiyu said to Xing'an.

Xing'an brought out one hundred silver coins and put them in front of Ran Siniang's case.

Ran Siniang said in a panic: "Your Majesty, Jin Shangshu's illness has only been relieved a little. I can't say anything about the cure. I can't ask for this reward."

But Zhu Qiyu shook his head and said: "This is just a reward for the relief of the symptoms. This stomach ailment hurts people. Even if it really can't be cured, I still have to leave. I can't leave like Jin Shangshu."

As Zhu Qiyu's number one household official, Zhu Qiyu certainly didn't want Jin Lian to be a starving ghost.

Jin Lian saved Daming a lot of money, just one hundred silver coins, if one million silver coins can be exchanged for a life, Zhu Qiyu is also willing to exchange it.

Zhang Feng is still a little immature, the Ministry of Household matters are very important, and Jin Lian sitting in that position is the Ding Haishenzhen of the Ministry of Households, especially the recent Shibosi, Chaoguan Zheyin, and Qingtian Liding are all big things.

In terms of personal feelings, Zhu Qiyu didn't have any bad feelings towards Jin Lian. If he had any bad feelings, he wouldn't give it to Uncle Mu Yang.

Zhu Qiyu also attaches great importance to Liu Jue.

Ran Siniang nodded, full of emotion, saying that His Majesty is violent and murderous, but Ran Siniang didn't feel that His Majesty was violent at all.

Those people, shouldn't they die?

But killing too many people means being violent and cold-blooded?

His Majesty is obviously a flesh-and-blood emperor, and even a little affectionate, but according to everyone's word of mouth, His Majesty is always a cold-blooded and ruthless person.

Zhu Qiyu looked at Ran Siniang's veiled hat, and suddenly asked, "Miss Ran, how are you doing in the imperial hospital?"

Xing'an showed a smile, this question was actually to ask Ran Siniang if she intends to enter Tai'an Palace.

Xing'an was a little worried, whether this Ran Siniang could understand the subtext in these words.

Ran Siniang understood, because Chen Wanniang had asked before.

Chen Wanniang was isolated and helpless in Tai'an Palace. The empress, concubine, noble concubine, and nobleman Li were all selected to enter the palace by serious drafts. Only Chen Wanniang entered the palace by kindness, so life must be difficult.

That's why Chen Wanniang is so anxious to have a child.

Chen Wanniang had asked her before that she was okay in the imperial hospital, meaning to let Ran Siniang enter the palace.

Now His Majesty asked, in fact, a very tactful question, whether he would like to enter Tai'an Palace.

Ran Siniang's fingers were twisting desperately, she was thinking about what to do.

She doesn't have any bad feelings towards His Majesty, and even has a lot of good feelings. Is there any man in the world who is more heroic than His Majesty?

But she still said: "Please Your Majesty, my concubine is in the Imperial Hospital, everything is fine."

Xing'an coughed lightly, this reminder was already very obvious!

But Ran Siniang was unmoved, she liked His Majesty, and she also liked the way of studying medicine in Taiyuan Hospital. She also hoped that she could combine the medical skills of the Southwest and the Central Plains to benefit the people in her hometown and Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Qiyu thought for a while and said: "Okay, it's fine, if you have any difficulties, just tell the eunuch at the Imperial Hospital, the eunuch over there can communicate directly with the palace."

"Or just go directly to Tai'an Palace."

Ran Siniang hurriedly stood up, bowed and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness."

Zhu Qiyu said with a smile: "Then go and do your work."

Ran Siniang leaned back and said, "Concubine...resign."

After this retreat, she didn't know if she would have the chance to enter the palace again in the future, she wanted to pick up the one hundred silver coins, but found that it was so heavy that she almost couldn't lift it up.

Zhu Qiyu heard the hesitation in Ran Siniang's tone, and said with a smile: "Miss Ran looks pretty in this light blue dress, um..."

"When the sky is clear and blue, Wu Shan is dyed in blue."

The spring breeze blows Ran Siniang's veiled hat, revealing her slightly ruddy pretty face.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your praise, and I will resign." Ran Siniang tasted it for a while, and fled again.

Ran Siniang's appearance of wrapping her fingers, it is obvious that the villain in her heart is fighting, just now she said to resign as a concubine, but hesitated twice.

Ran Siniang still has things to do, Zhu Qiyu doesn't want to disturb her self-realization.

As for why Ran Siniang blushed?

What kind of mountain is this Wushan?Ran Siniang is smart, can't she think of it?

Xing'an can't understand, this is the love between men and women.

He asked a little strangely: "Isn't Your Majesty curious about Miss Ran's appearance?"

Xing'an followed Zhu Qiyu every day, and he was sure that His Majesty had never seen Ran Siniang's face, so Xing'an had certainly seen it before he came to Nanhu Bieyuan from Guizhou.

Don't be ugly.

Instead, Zhu Qiyu shook his head and said, "You keep teasing her, can she still be ugly? I don't doubt the professionalism of Xing'an Dadang, the envoy of flowers and birds."

Xing'an was taken aback, His Majesty's thinking was always so unexpected, but it was reasonable, he said with a smile: "Of course it deserves praise, it's important to look good."

Ran Siniang's smiles and demeanor are the amorous feelings that Tomiko Hino couldn't learn all her life in Daming.

Tomiko Hino still wants to climb the dragon bed to plant?

Xing'an thought for a while and said: "Your Majesty is calm and not at all anxious."

Zhu Qiyu picked up the memorial and said: "I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry, don't worry, it's not too hot yet."

"If Uncle Mu Yang can recover, I will be more gratified."

Jin Lian was granted the title of Uncle Mu Yang. If he can recover from his serious illness, Ming's financial affairs can continue to advance steadily. This is even better news for Zhu Qiyu.

Xing'an continued to assist His Majesty's government.

On the seventh day after taking the medicine, Jin Lian went to the lecture hall to see him and asked for reinstatement.

"There's no need to be so anxious." Zhu Qiyu asked a little strangely.

Jin Lian's spirit recovered very well, but Zhu Qiyu still didn't want Jin Lian to work too hard.

Jin Lian has been busy all his life, almost non-stop, and has never had a day of leisure. After being idle for more than half a month, he is a little numb and always wants to find something to do.

Jin Lian said with flickering eyes: "I heard that there are large silver mines in the country of Wa, and there are also gold and copper objects. I heard that the output is not low."

Zhu Qiyu nodded and said: "The envoys of the Japanese state made it very clear about the silver mine occupied by the Confucian Mansion. Their current annual output is less than 30 taels, but according to provincial calculations, they can produce 120 jin a year. That’s [-] million taels.”

"The annual output of the entire Wa country is 40 catties, or 640 million taels of silver, and it is estimated that it can be mined for about a hundred years."

Jin Lian sat up straight suddenly, and the listlessness on his body immediately dissipated, and his whole body became full of energy, and asked loudly: "How much?"

Zhu Qiyu took out a memorandum of planning and saving, and after confirming it, he said: "If the silver mines in the country of Wa are fully developed, they can produce about 640 million taels of silver a year, but the silver material is excellent and mining is simple."

"That number should be correct."

Jin Lian took a deep breath, his eyes seemed to be shining and he said, "Your Majesty, when will you fight against the Japanese kingdom!"

Zhu Qiyu handed over the memorial and said: "That is the country that Emperor Taizu Gao decided not to conquer."

Jin Lian shook his head and said, "The Japanese envoy is lawless! This crime is unforgivable, Your Majesty!"

Jin Lian took the memorial and looked at it for a long time. The silver mines are actually not long, about a few thousand paces away, but the silver materials in these silver mines in the Wa country are of excellent quality.

For every thousand catties of silver, there are actually three taels to four taels of golden flower silver!

In Fujian's silver mines, there is only about half a tael of golden flower silver per thousand catties of silver.

One of the worst silver mines in Japan, for every thousand catties of silver, there are also two or three coins of gold flower silver!

What are you waiting for!

Immediately, immediately form the Daming Navy and swallow the entire Wa Kingdom whole!

Jin Lian looked at the memorial, panting like a cow, and his eyes were bloodshot, while watching, he whispered: "The sin is unforgivable, the sin is unforgivable!"

"There are so many silver mountains, it's really a Japanese envoy who broke the law, and the crime is unforgivable!"

"Zheng, there is nothing that can't be conscripted! We all belong to Daming!"

Seeing Jin Lian's impatient look, Zhu Qiyu smiled, knowing that there are so many silver mountains in Wa country, Jin Lian's illness seems to be cured.

"Don't worry, let's talk about it, what do you need so much silver taels for? Silver taels are just currency, not wealth." Zhu Qiyu persuaded.

Jin Lian put the memorial on the table, and said loudly: "Your Majesty, the Central Plains Dynasty is short of money! The money shortage has been nearly a thousand years!"

"There has been a shortage of money since the Eastern Han Dynasty, and it has continued until now!"

It is an indisputable fact that the Central Plains Dynasty has been short of money since the Western Han Dynasty. When the Western Han Dynasty went to the Western Regions, one of the most important purposes was the gold mines in the Altai Mountains.

The Altai Mountains were called Jinshan Mountains in the Han Dynasty.

When the money shortage reached the Song Dynasty, it had become a Nikkei problem in the Song Dynasty, but there was no copper, and the land was small, so it was extremely difficult to cast money. Otherwise, Jiaozi and Qianyin would not have been born.

Even the Yuan Dynasty, which had no dynasties, was short of money to the point of printing precious banknotes.

Daming is also short of money, among other things, Zhu Qiyu still owes 80 years of casting money and has not paid it off!

Zhu Qiyu can fully understand Jin Lian's desire for money. It is not greedy for money, just like Jin Lian's stinginess is not for saving money for himself. It is the perfection of the country's system.

"We don't have a navy." Zhu Qiyu repeatedly reminded Jin Lian to calm down.

Jin Lian hurriedly asked for reinstatement because he had heard about the silver mine in the country of Wa.

Chapter 4

Jin Lian was already furious, because what His Majesty said was the truth!

Daming has no navy!

"Where's our navy?! During the Yongle period of Ming Dynasty, where is the invincible navy now?!" Jin Lian stood up, shaking his arms unconsciously.

After His Majesty ascended the throne, he took him to the Inner Transport Depot of Daming. When he saw the legacy of Emperor Taizong Wen, Jin Lian became furious. .

At that time, Jin Lian had just returned to Beijing from Fujian, and he had already known this fact after he made a tour of the south. The longer he worked as Minister of the Household Department, the more he found himself angrier.

"Everyone in the world is selfish!" Jin Lian waved his hand vigorously, then sat down dejectedly.

He knew that Daming's invincible navy had gone there.

In the third year of Zhengtong, it was completely destroyed in the Longjiang Shipyard, and in the tenth year of Zhengtong, it was destroyed in the Zhenjiang Shipyard in Fujian.

Zhu Qiyu smiled and said: "That's why I launched the Zhoushan naval battle with the purpose of rebuilding the invincible navy of the Ming Dynasty."

"No rush, it's all ours."

Jin Lian nodded, His Majesty is naturally not in a hurry, but he can't wait.

He is old, he has a stomachache, although there is a possibility of recovery recently, but who knows when he will die?

Fortunately, His Majesty led the court to make a fortune together, and did not have the habit of eating alone.

Jin Lian thought for a long time and said, "What do you think of Wu Jing, Your Majesty?"

Wu Jing is the head of the Imperial Academy, but Wu Jing has ten years of experience in local tax administration.

Jin Lian means that Wu Jing is in charge of the household affairs.

"Not enough qualifications." Zhu Qiyu said concisely.

Ranking seniority is one of the established rules in the officialdom. Wu Jing was a Jinshi in the second year of Jingtai. Even if he has a medal of extraordinary merit, it does not mean that he can become one of the six Ming Dukes of the Ming Dynasty before Jin Lian passed away.

If Zhu Qiyu promoted him by leapfrogging his rank, it would be the greatest injustice to the other courtiers, and it would also put Wu Jing on the fire.

Moreover, Wu Jing only has experience in local finance and taxation, and has no experience in court property.

"Zhang Feng can spend a while, and wait for Wu Jing to grow up." Zhu Qiyu said with a smile: "Besides, Jin Shangshu's stomach disease has been cured, and his vitality has gradually recovered. Jin Shangshu can also look at him."

Jin Lian nodded. The most important thing for him is to take good care of his body.

Jin Lian's eyes turned to the direction of Songjiang City Shipping Department. He hoped that the Zhoushan naval battle would go well, that Daming would complete its transformation, and then build an invincible navy of Ming Dynasty.

At this time, the Futai yamen of Songjiang Mansion was full of people.
