Su Haisheng and Han Wei decided to agree to this request.
They can collect these grains from the surplus military rations currently in the hands of the Ming army and by purchasing grains from the Western Karakhan Kingdom, but the prerequisite is that the Khwarezm Kingdom needs to pay for these grains at market prices.
Where does the money come from?
It can come from the borrowed money.
The food provided by the Ming Dynasty and the food provided by the Kingdom of Western Karakhan were billed separately, and no penny could be lost.
Huta nodded in agreement without raising any objection.
Then there are some investment issues, because the country has been severely damaged by the war, all industries have withered, and the vitality of the private economy has dried up. The support from Dad Ming is very much needed.
Huta hoped that Ming Dynasty could mobilize some businessmen to invest and do business in Khwarezm, or set up factories for production, etc., to provide jobs for landless and landless farmers and prevent them from causing trouble.
The Khwarizmide would provide the best policy treatment to Ming merchants.
Huta himself did not mention this, but both Su Haisheng and Han Wei raised it. How could we not do such a good thing to help Ming Dynasty expand overseas markets and implement its going global strategy?
Finally, there is the request from the garrison.
Because the war resulted in a large number of Khwarezm state's organized troops dying in battle and fleeing, the country's current available military strength is only over 30,000, and most of them are crooked melons and bad dates. The number of veterans is extremely small, and the country's self-defense capability has dropped to a freezing point. Without the protection of Ming Dynasty, they can't do anything.
This not only led to an insufficient number of troops, but also greatly reduced the number of men in the Khwarezm Kingdom. There is no possibility of recovery in the short term. Therefore, for now, without the help of the Ming garrison, the Khwarezm Kingdom will be finished. .
The Khwarezm Kingdom requested at least 20,000 Ming soldiers to be stationed in the Khwarezm Kingdom to provide military asylum and provide military training to the Khwarezm Army.
Su Haisheng and Han Wei said that there are no problems with the garrison and military training, but the number of troops still needs to be considered.
Moreover, a series of military expenses incurred after the garrison entered the Khwarezm Kingdom need to be borne by the Khwarezm Kingdom. It is impossible for the Ming Dynasty to bear these military expenses for the Khwarezm Kingdom.
Huta said that the situation in Khwarezm was very difficult. Even the money he had now had to be borrowed from the Ming Dynasty and would need to be repaid in the future. He also asked the Ming Dynasty to consider it more for the sake of the poor country of Khwarezm.
When the most difficult period of this period is over and the financial cash flow of the Khwarezm Kingdom is sufficient, it will naturally pay the military expenditure for the Ming Dynasty.
Everyone discussed and discussed, and finally reached a unanimous conclusion, that is, the Ming Dynasty will still pay for the military pay and welfare of the Ming soldiers, but a series of other expenses such as food, accommodation, ordnance supplies, etc. will be borne by the Khwarezm Kingdom.
This is the final bottom line. I can't spend my own money to protect you, or even protect you for free. This doesn't work. You have to pay a certain price. The suzerain country is not your biological father and has no obligation to raise you.
Huta gritted his teeth and agreed to this condition.
In this way, what should be discussed was finally over. Seeing that the country was gaining vitality, Huta was very happy and held a banquet to invite Su Haisheng and Han Wei to eat together.
After three rounds of drinking, Su Haisheng was too drunk and returned to the military camp to rest. Han Wei didn't drink much, so he stayed and had some conversations with Huta.
"The situation in the Khwarezm Kingdom can still be stable at the moment, because of the intervention of the Ming Dynasty and the poor performance of the Guo Er Kingdom before. Both the court and the local landlords need time to recuperate and there will be no trouble in the short term. .
You can use this time to use the materials provided by Ming Dynasty to control the situation and develop your own power, so that you can secure your position as king. I think this is also a big test for you, but this is Because Daming believes in you. "
Han Wei looked at Huta with a smile, which made Huta feel somewhat relieved.
"I can be king only because of the support of the Ming Dynasty. With the Ming Dynasty garrison, no one dares to threaten my identity as the king. But in the end, I still don't understand why His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty chose me to be this Khwarizi. The king of Mo Country.”
Han Wei smiled.
"Because you are the most suitable candidate. You can speak Chinese and Khitan, and you can also communicate with the Khwarezm people. There are no obstacles. This alone is a huge advantage that ordinary people cannot match. You have to face If you have confidence in yourself, Ming Dynasty will choose you because you are suitable."
Huta thought for a while and felt that what Han Wei said made sense.
"That's true, but... there should be many people who are dissatisfied with me as the sudden king, such as Jonathan and Hora. I heard that they had almost started discussing who would be the king before. "
"It does happen, and it's normal."
Han Wei smiled and said: "But they can't change the world. They have offended Guo Erguo to death. Apart from Ming Dynasty, they have no other choice and they dare not have any other choice. So you can rest assured, but how do you want to be a good king?" , it also depends on yourself.”
"understand."
Huta smiled humbly.
Of course he knows how to be a good king.
Just hold on to Daming's thigh tightly. Everything is centered on Daming's interests, and even your own interests can take a back seat. Then there is no need to consider the remaining interests.
Daming is the most important thing.
It has to be said that although Huta has just become the king, his political and ideological consciousness has reached a certain level, and he has reached the level of a qualified king of a vassal state.
News about the request for cooperation from the Khwarezm Kingdom was sent to Zhongdu in early June of the 11th year of Hongwu, and Zhongdu quickly took measures.
Su Yonglin consulted with officials from the Ministry of Finance and expressed that he agreed to the loan.
But Lin Jingchun said that the loan should not be given randomly. What if they turned the loan into a bad debt and refused to repay it, what would Ming Dynasty do? Who will bear the responsibility?
Su Yonglin thought about it, and agreed to let the Ministry of Finance set up a working group to go to Khwarezm to see the actual situation, and then see if the loan could be approved.
The point is to see if they have any high-quality minerals, or any high-quality properties that can be taken away. In this case, even if they can't pay back the money, they can still use the minerals as mortgage. Isn't this good?
In addition, Lin Jingchun also said that regarding how to repay the money, it must be written clearly in black and white, including when to repay, what to repay, how much to repay at one time, and what kind of debt will be used to pay off the debt if it cannot be repaid. These must be clearly understood, and no gaps can be left.
Lin Jingchun has always been very concerned about financial work.
He often said that Su Yonglin was good at increasing sources of income and could find new sources of income for Ming Dynasty. This was a powerful skill, but without good means of reducing expenditure, no matter how much sources of income were increased, everything would be ruined.
Moreover, there will always be an end to open source, and cutting expenditure is the foundation for consolidating the foundation and cultivating the talent.
Therefore, he paid special attention to the issue of reducing expenditure. In addition to his daily work, the most common thing he did was to keep an eye on the various expenditures of the court to see where he could save something and where he could pick it up. Find ways to save money.
Of course, he does not save money carelessly. He does not deprive officials of their due benefits to make everyone complain. Instead, he constantly looks for possibilities to save money while maintaining the original foundation.
Over the years, he has made large-scale amendments and fills in some fiscal rules with obvious loopholes, so that fewer and fewer people can profit from the loopholes in the court rules, and the court loses less and less money in the loopholes.
He withheld some money that didn't need to be spent at all, and when he put it all together, it turned out to be a big expense.
Su Yonglin felt that he was already a master of financial management, but compared with Lin Jingchun, he still fell behind, so he had to admit that Wen Dao had a career and a specialization.
For Lin Jingchun, who has been managing money for almost 30 years, some things have been integrated into his DNA and become instinctive.
With such a financial steward who is good at reducing expenditures, Su Yonglin is actually very relieved. He can spend more energy on increasing revenue and finding more financial sources for Ming Dynasty.
Lin Jingchun is fully responsible for what happens next.
He will naturally create a set of reasonable and easy-to-use rules to control this financial source and increase the income of the Ming Dynasty's national funds instead of enriching his personal pockets.
For example, he also had some plans and ideas for the gold mine on Liuqiu Island.
