You must know that the Ming Dynasty's annual treasury income was only more than 10 million taels of silver, and even after Zhang Juzheng's reform, it reached its peak at only 22 million taels! Nowadays, the capital and its surrounding areas alone collect nearly 400,000 taels of silver in one month, and nearly 5 million taels of silver in one year. This number is enough to make people jaw-dropping!
At this time, Sun Shenjiang said in a hoarse voice: "How much money can we get?"
Liu Haojia curled his lips and said, "It's not calculated yet! Your Majesty's 30% must be deducted first, and various expenses must be subtracted before we can finally calculate how much money each of us can get."
General Sun Shen said loudly: "Then let's forget it quickly!"
Liu Haojia said: "What are you shouting! Didn't you hear just now that I have arranged for the accountant to go and settle it!"
General Sun Shen was startled by Liu Haojia, and hurriedly raised his hands and said: "Brother, don't be angry, brother, I am also impatient for the moment!"
Liu Haojia waved his hand and said: "Forget it, it's normal for you guys who have never seen money to behave like this! But I guess it will be tomorrow to figure out the result! Why don't I treat you to a drink today! And I happen to have something to do with you. discuss."
After hearing this, several people looked at each other sheepishly, and felt a little relaxed, then followed Liu Haojia to the restaurant for dinner. The shopkeeper saw Liu Haojia coming and wanted to curry favor with him, and knew that he would pay the bill, so he happily brought out a table of wine and food.
After the food and wine were served, Liu Haojia grabbed his chopsticks and ate happily. After a few bites, he saw that the other people didn't move their chopsticks, so he put down his chopsticks and said, "Why, no one has an appetite?"
General Sun Shen glanced at the other two people and said with a wry smile: "With such a large sum of money put there, how can I have the appetite to eat!"
Liu Haojia smiled and said: "It seems that if we don't explain this matter clearly, you really won't be able to eat it anymore!"
General Sun Shen said: "Brother Liu, didn't you say you have something to discuss with us? Why don't we talk about it first? It's safe to settle down!"
Liu Haojia said: "Okay, then I will tell you what I think!"
After hearing this, several people immediately sat up straight and listened attentively. Liu Haojia then said slowly: "This amount of money is not a small amount! To put it bluntly, you have not collected so much money in the past year, so this money is very hot in your hands! If you don't want to be remembered by everyone, , we have to find someone who can bear it! So, the distribution ratio needs to change!"
Everyone used to think that they might not be able to collect so much money, but now that the money is in front of them, their hearts are naturally burning. But after the excitement passed, they did feel a little scared! Because they also understand that when there is a sudden fortune, there is always a sudden disaster!
At this time, several people had something in their minds and guessed what Liu Haojia was thinking, but they refused to say anything and stared waiting for Liu Haojia to speak.
Liu Haojia was not polite and said directly: "The original rule was that Long Live Master would get 30%. Now that there are too many mirrors, Long Live Master's ratio will be increased by one plus! I think we should just give Long Live Master half!"
Several people had already agreed in their hearts, but when they heard Liu Haojia actually say it, they immediately felt pain in their flesh and felt a little reluctant to let go! But when I think about the consequences of taking too much money, I feel a little scared!
Liu Haojia knew what they were thinking with just one glance, and couldn't help but look down on them! I feel like they are like those monkeys trying to grab chestnuts from the fire, wanting to eat but afraid of burning their hands! So he continued: "You don't know anything about the inner treasury. I can tell you that now the inner treasury is almost empty and the rats are running away! With such a large sum of money in front of you, do you think His Majesty doesn't know? Anyway, I am Don’t dare to lie! Instead of waiting until the Long Live Lord becomes jealous and tries to find a way to take the money out of our hands, why don’t we just hand it over happily, so that we can at least leave a name with the Long Live Lord!”
Liu Haojia then explained the situation of the state treasury and internal treasury to the three people in detail. The three people became more and more frightened as they listened! He all knows what a poor man thinks when he sees a large sum of money, especially if this poor man is an emperor with unlimited power, it is even more terrifying!
And they also know clearly that they, as handlers, cannot escape! If the emperor is dissatisfied, he may not deal with the people behind them, but those who handle them will definitely be dealt with! So Wu Shilang gritted his teeth and said: "I agree! I will find a way to explain the matter to the people behind me!"
General Sun Shen also nodded and said: "I agree too!"
As for County Magistrate Zhang, no one paid any attention to him. He himself didn't feel the need to speak.
Seeing their pale faces, Liu Haojia softened his tone and said, "Don't worry. When you go back, make it clear to the people behind you. They won't make things difficult for you. After all, can they be older than Long Live Lord?"
Everyone felt much better after hearing this. Under Liu Haojia's greeting, they finally picked up their cups and started eating and drinking. Several people were fawning over Liu Haojia while eating! They also knew that although their apparent contribution this time was not great, they were still involved. The adults who received the money will think of them every time they think of the money in the future. This will be a great help to their career!
Especially this time, Emperor Wanli was also sharing the money. Thinking of this, they felt a strange pleasure of sitting on the ground with the emperor and sharing the spoils, and they were even more excited!
After a few glasses of wine, a few people felt much more relaxed. Especially Wu Shilang, his brother once felt that he completely ignored etiquette when eating. At this time, he was chewing a piece of deer tendon in his mouth and said vaguely: "I didn't expect that I could actually collect so much money! It turns out that when Mr. Liu proposed this matter, I thought it was a fantasy. As a result, I was frightened when I saw the numbers in front of me!"
General Sun Shen also patted his chest and said, "To tell you the truth, when I first saw that note, my heartbeat almost jumped out of my mouth!"
Everyone burst out laughing when they heard this! Liu Haojia followed up and said: "To be honest, at first I wanted to invite you to go to the bank and see what the piles of silver looked like! But after seeing your performance, I didn't dare because I was afraid that you might die accidentally. In the vault!"
Several people immediately burst into laughter again! After laughing, Wu Shilang sighed and said: "To be honest, although what Mr. Liu just said was a joke, if I were really allowed to enter the bank and see mountains and seas of silver, I might show some ugly behavior!"
Sun Shen spoke up and said, "I'm afraid I'm going to pounce on you directly. I'll give you a hug first!"
