Han You regretted it when he walked into the hall.

When he arrived at the door just now, the young eunuch outside told him that the Minister of Hubu and the Zuo Shilang of Hubu were in the hall.

Upon hearing that it was these two birdmen, Han You suddenly became alert.

Why did the emperor call the top and second-in-commands of the Ministry of Revenue to the main hall for nothing? It can be imagined that it must be related to money.

Since it is related to money, there are only two possibilities: the court has money, or the court has no money.

How could Han You not know whether he had money or not?

Since the court was out of money, the people from the Ministry of Revenue were in the main hall, and he was still carrying two bags full of banknotes. Han You felt that he was probably a succubus who entered the bachelor's village, a sheep in a tiger's mouth.

At first he was thinking about walking, but then he thought it would be troublesome to come in the middle of winter, so he waited for a while.

Then Han You asked the imperial guard and the little eunuch to help him hide the baggage, and their heads shook like rattles.

This was Han You. If anyone else dared to let them hide something, he would just blow the whistle and ask someone to take it down. Who knows if he was hiding a dagger or something to assassinate the emperor.

The little eunuch is really not clever. He was frightened by Han You's ink, so he entered the palace to report. It was a blessing in disguise, and the civil and military officials thought he was quite clever.

"Ah, I have met Your Majesty."

Han You walked in with a wary look on his face: "I've met Mr. Sun, I've met Mr. Situ."

Lao Sun nodded and Xiao Si returned the greeting. Lao Ba frowned and said: "You came at the right time. You are the best at merchant affairs. The merchants in the capital, no, those audacious families, actually joined forces to cause trouble, so as not to lose face. It can be said that I am shameless and have no bottom line. I want to fight fire with fire and leave it to you to deal with it."

"Oh, I was shocked." Han You breathed a sigh of relief: "I thought the court was short of money."

"Yes, there is a hole in the treasury again. It is because of these merchants that the commercial taxes are insufficient..."

Halfway through, Lao Ba's expression changed slightly: "Why do you keep retreating?"

"Ah?" Han You laughed dryly: "No, it was Mr. Sun and Mr. Situ who took a few steps forward together."

"wrong!"

Lao Ba stared at Han You's two hands behind his back: "What is in those two bags behind your back, and why are you so secretive?"

"The last general...the last general has a little cold hands."

Han You subconsciously took a step back again: "The general's entry into the palace is actually nothing serious. It's just...just passing by. Well...then your majesty, Mr. Sun and Mr. Situ will be busy first, and the general...the general will take his leave."

"Wait a minute."

The more Lao Ba looked at it, the more he felt something was wrong. He actually stood up and said, "What is in that baggage of yours? Take it out and show me."

Seeing Han You's panic, Sun Shouting teased: "It's like being a thief. Is there money in the bag? I'm afraid your Majesty and I will take it away?"

Han You suddenly broke into cold sweat, and Situ Yu also smiled and said, "So what if it's a bank note? I and the boss are in charge of the household department. I have never seen how much money there is, so why do I look guilty?"

"No!" Han You immediately shouted: "It's not a banknote, no, no."

The person who knows Han You best is definitely Lao Ba. When he saw the former's appearance, his eyes lit up: "Is it really a banknote?"

"this…"

When Han You saw that he might not be able to outrun Lao Ba, he could only sigh: "Well, just a few banknotes. I just happened to pick them up in Jingzhong, and then... then I just took them."

"I don't ask where you got it from." Lao Ba became nervous: "I just ask you, how many do you have?"

"Just...not much."

"No amount is much."

"A little bit."

"Look at your worthless look." Sun Shouting laughed loudly: "It is true that the court is short of money, but no matter how short it is, it will not take away your Han You's money."

Han You said with a smile on his face: "That's the best."

"Stop talking nonsense." Lao Ba began to rub his hands: "How many are there."

Sun Shouting also came to his senses and asked curiously: "Is it possible that... it is as big as a hundred thousand swords?"

"Well, almost, a little more."

"If it's one hundred thousand guan..." Lao Sun looked at the emperor: "We can first pay the rations to Hongzhou. It's enough, it's enough."

"Sun Shouting, I'm your grandma!" Han You yelled: "Didn't you just say you wouldn't touch my personal money?"

"Of course I won't move."

Sun Shouting looked at the emperor happily.

Lao Ba smiled bitterly: "Han You, you are not an outsider. I am very worried about this business tax issue. If you can really spend 100,000 yuan to fill the hole in the court, I guarantee that within ten years, the Ministry of Revenue will return it to you." you."

Han You: "..."

Sun Shouting waved his hand: "Eight years, eight years is enough, it won't take ten years."

Han You was convinced, so he just paid it back to the Minister of Hubu like this. It would only take eight years to repay one hundred thousand guan. It would not take me eight months to earn 100,000 guan.

"Fine."

Han You suddenly became happy. He originally planned to give "20%" of the 500,000 guan to the emperor, but it was just an extra 100,000 guan. He didn't care at all.

"Okay, it's a deal, you'll pay me back within eight years."

Upon hearing what Han You said, Sun Shouting, who was only half-joking, was stunned.

Just as Han You was about to take the money, he felt like he was struck by lightning.

He suddenly realized something. If he wanted to take out one hundred thousand guan, he had to unpack it, and then he had to take it out and count them one by one...

Seeing Han You's hesitant look, Lao Ba slapped his thigh: "There are more than one hundred thousand guan in that bag, yes or no!"

"What do you mean?" Han You was unhappy: "It's a fixed price, how much do you want."

"how much do you have."

"How much do you want?"

"I..." Lao Ba said cautiously: "Two...two hundred thousand yuan?"

"Why don't you go and have a big... dinner? Two hundred thousand yuan. How much does it cost to build a Four Seasons Villa?"

"What about the 150,000 yuan?"

Han You looked gloomy and couldn't help but said: "How about this? I will make a bet with Your Majesty. If Your Majesty guesses how many banknotes Wei Chen has, Wei Chen will give you 150,000 coins. If you can't guess, I will only give you one hundred thousand gu, so what, if you win or lose, I won’t pay it back from the treasury, don’t you dare.”

"It's not a big deal. It's like His Majesty is trying to deceive you." Sun Shouting couldn't laugh or cry: "You look like a child, but you don't look like a general. Guess, what's there to guess? I guess you have millions in those two bags. Guan, what's wrong with you?"

Han You scolded directly: "Sun Shouting, can you put down the rat in your mouth!"

Lao Ba was dumbfounded: "Really... really a million strings?!"

Han You raised his finger, and before he could continue to criticize Sun Shouting, Lao Ba made a quick decision: "Wenwu, come on, grab his baggage!"

Wen Wu quickly reminded in a low voice: "Your Majesty, don't make fun of me, Master Sun and Master Situ are still here."

"Oh, that's right, Sun Shouting, Situ Yu, the same as above, snatched his baggage together!"
