Da da da……
Footsteps sounded outside the house, and Wei Mi's equation inside the house suddenly opened his eyes. At this time, in this place, there was no one else but the people from the case department who could come to him.
It's just that it's a little early.
With the authority to read the Wuchao Tang Newspaper, even if it is only for the whole county, Fang Fang has access to far more things than the average person. At the same time, he cannot keep every Tang Newspaper and will not take it away after reading it.
Kaz...
The wooden machine rotated, the door opened from the outside, and a man wearing a fox mask walked in with a man in a cloak.
Why he is a man is all because of his physique and height. But for some reason, when he saw the figure covered with a black robe, Fang Fang felt familiar and even more curious about him. Wasn't he hot?
In June, the grassland heat hits. You eat meat naked at noon and drink in the evening. Not only does Kyushu’s territory expand too much, but the temperature difference between day and night is even greater in the north. Instead of cooling down, you can still see ice in the morning.
"Pulao?"
Fang Fang's office is the largest. There is a huge sand table, which marks the location of cattle and sheep. It is updated every day, just to control this year's harvest. When people walk into Fang Fang, he suddenly stands up from his seat.
"it's me!"
Lao Pu lifted up his cloak, took off his black robe, and quickly came up from behind the fox-faced masked man. He hugged Fang Fang and said, "Boy, you did a good job, but I just feel a little homesick. I have been here for more than four months. I didn’t send any message back, but do you know how worried your sister is about you?"
Breaking free from Lao Pu's arms, Fang Fang touched his nose, "Don't I know where to send it?"
My sister is in the palace, and correspondence needs to go through the inner palace, but I really don’t know the equation of which department or person it can be handed over to.
There are too many rules in the palace, and letters may be opened and read. Fang Fang will not write messy things in letters, but he really doesn't want anyone to read the letters he communicates with his sister.
"This is indeed a good excuse, but it is not a reason. Either you come back with me, or you can give it to him directly in the next month!"
Glancing at the fox-faced Chief of the Documents Department, Lao Pu pulled up a seat and sat down, "Let's get down to business!"
"You say!"
Fang Fang leaned against the edge of the work table. Fang Fang had already been mentally prepared for this old guy to be able to command the filing department.
"money!"
"The people are in decline and deep winter, and the dynasty is in decline and spring and summer. Now there is a war on two fronts, one offensive and one defensive. The consumption in all aspects is quite large. Because of your plan, the Ming Dynasty also needs us to go down the river to store food. Although there is no growth, there is no shortage of food rations, but food alone is useless!”
The war consumed all aspects of national strength. The Wu Dynasty used work for relief in the country and opened two fronts on the border. It is not easy to survive until today.
The next step is to either cut off the project or shrink the defense line, but to what extent can the shrinkage be achieved?
Xuzhou and Jingzhou are confrontations in themselves.
In Hexi, the Song people have not yet taken action, but the materials still have to be transported somewhere, and at the same time they need to bear the cost of the three-day alliance of the government troops.
Money is needed everywhere!
This is tantamount to making matters worse for the Wu Dynasty, which is already financially strapped.
"How serious is the situation?"
"It is necessary to increase the number of rings to start a war, and the period of confrontation cannot be less. There are 200,000 troops from the north and the south, 350,000 soldiers, and one tael of silver per head, that is 500,000 taels. The southern front starts from the twelfth lunar month, and the north Starting from the first month of the year, more than 5 million taels have been spent on the extra money, and the whole year is only 18 million taels. This does not include the Song Dynasty's annual coins. Do you think the Song Dynasty will give them more this year?" Lao Pu took a photo. Pat the thigh.
"Won't!"
"Yes, it just won't happen. In previous years, in May, the Song Dynasty would start to discuss the annual coins for the Liao and Wu Dynasties. The Song people had money but didn't make plans, and it was difficult to come up with it in a short time. But this year, so far, there is no money. The Documents Division tried to promote this kind of proposal, but the memorial was immediately seized and the person was dragged away by the Imperial City Division. It is obvious what the Song Dynasty was thinking!"
"I don't plan to give money, but I just want to fight. He can't do anything about food, so he starts with money. All kinds of expenses have increased this year. When the autumn harvest comes, there will be less income. Officials can owe it, and the two-front army Can I owe the money?" Fang Fang couldn't help but applaud the Song people.
If you can’t target rice grains, then target money.
This year is already halfway through, and everyone can see Wu Chao's attitude towards this current local conflict. Xiu Neigong has no time to talk to you.
But when you are cultivating internal strength, it is also a time when national power continues to be consumed, and all output cannot be produced until the internal strength is fully developed.
Internal consumption and external consumption, the currency that is the most direct reflection of a country's national strength, will inevitably spend a lot of money in a short period of time. Even if there is some recovery, it will take a certain period of time.
"Now that you understand, you don't need me to explain. You have proposed several plans, and the money has already appeared, but it is difficult for people who are accustomed to poverty to change their consumption habits in a short period of time. According to the calculations of the Ministry of Household Affairs and the comparison of the Records Department, in If we do not use our capital, the monthly gap in the next six months will be about 800,000 taels. This is even if the Song Dynasty does not move Hexi. If the Song Dynasty does, even if the Southern Front does not support Hexi, at least it will We will go south to Jingzhou to effectively contain the Yue Family Army of the Song Dynasty, and the gap may expand to two million by then!"
Saving money is like eating shit, spending money is like running water, tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of troops clash at every turn, and money is burning with every breath.
"Let's be honest, how much do I have to bear?"
Lao Pu glanced at the fox man beside him, "The current trading volume, the market's daily revenue is about three hundred to four hundred taels, and there will be more in the future. I know you have money to spend, but I believe it is not difficult for you to make money. , giving you two options, take out 500,000 taels at once in November, and the Ministry of Household Affairs and the Inner Government will not need to take out the market in the next two years, or 80,000 taels per month from now on until the end of the year, the same It’s two years!”
"Do you really think of me as the God of Wealth?" Fang Fang laughed at himself.
Make money in the name of the dynasty, and if you really want to do it, rotten wood can give you two taels of oil. In the past forty years, the Wu Dynasty has implemented the self-cultivation policy. Although the people are still very poor, they still have some capital, plus the tacit approval of various places Smuggling gangs, now facing a national crisis, it is not difficult to get some money.
The difficulty is that the Wu Dynasty does not want to fully mobilize. The difficulty is that the Wu Dynasty does not want to squeeze the people's power, so it will have to find a way.
"I don't know if you are the God of Wealth, but I know that this money is not difficult for you." Lao Pu is extremely single.
"Since you are out to make money, you will definitely stay in the Northland for a short time. After all, how long will you stay?"
"Why, can you get the money out in one go?"
When the words came to light, Lao Pu turned to smile and said, "I forgot that you still hold 7,000 shares of equity in your hand without selling out, plus the land in Qinggutun..."
"Don't always think about good things. The land has been released now, and the losses will be later. I have given you the shares during this period. Now it is not a problem to buy one share for thirty or forty taels. Other aspects are being made up for you. You have to be willing. Wait until July, and I can let you take away 250,000 taels!"
