After rebirth, I became the white moonlight of the downcast son

Chapter 122 The use of the gift given by the emperor

After receiving the money, the Seventh Prince began to distribute it to various places according to needs. Only after this distribution did he realize that the money he had just received was gone before he could warm it up, and it was not enough.

Unable to do so, the seventh prince rummaged through his treasury, property under his name, and harvests everywhere, and found that the cash he could scrape together was less than 100,000 yuan.

He's so poor. He's a prince, but he can't even afford one hundred thousand in cash.

There are a lot of valuable items in his warehouse, but the items given by the emperor cannot be bought or sold! Apart from being rewarded, they can only rot in the warehouse and cannot even be exchanged for a penny.

It’s true that people don’t know how expensive salt and rice are, and floods increase epidemics. As Zhou Sining said, without a million silver, there is really no way to solve the crisis in Yicheng. Simply repairing the festering Yihe embankment is not a solution.

A small amount, as well as food rations for the affected people, resettlement after the flood, and manpower and material resources to eradicate the epidemic...

I hope Zhou Sining can dig out more holes.

Normally I don't think anything of it, but this time something happened, I really can't go anywhere without money.

It’s no wonder that businessmen value profits and officials love money. Sometimes, it’s really hard to do without money.

It's a pity that the national treasury only has so little money. No wonder Master Qin is stingy all day long. He can't be generous even if he wants to. The money and food for the defenders in the four borders, the salary and silver for the courtiers and officials, the clan and royal family all

Food for the nobles and expenses for the court...

It’s hard for a clever woman to make a meal without rice.

If he hadn't joined the Sixth Ministry, he wouldn't have known that the national treasury had only a small amount of money, and that the treasury was at the bottom just by providing disaster relief. It's really not easy for Mr. Qin to be in the household department.

From the Ministry of Rites to the Ministry of Personnel, he was transferred to the Ministry of Household Affairs before he could learn all the government affairs. His father did not want him to learn government affairs. This was obviously to let him experience all kinds of hardships.

The emperor once seemed to be aloof and eloquent, but he had to be trapped in a small place like the palace all year round. Day by day, he was either yelled at by the censor until his lungs hurt, or the minister was so angry that his heart was smoking.

.

Alas, everyone only looks at the royal wealth, and who can see these things?

After thinking about it, the seventh prince still felt that he had to take money from the pocket of the second prince Chu Yuming. He was the second prince of the dynasty and returned home with a lot of money. Everyone had taken advantage of him. There was no way he could be left alone.

.

However, since he came back, he has been hiding in the house under the pretext of recovering from his injuries. How can we make him cough up the money?

The second prince Chu Yuming, who was being cared about by the seventh prince, was not in the mansion at the moment, but went to a neighboring state secretly. The one in the mansion who had been lying in the back all day recuperating was just a secret guard with a similar stature to him.

Neighboring state, Anshan.

"Your Highness, it's out, it's out... It's really, really..." Chen Gui held the thing as big as a fingernail and handed it to Chu Yuming with excitement on his face.

"Your Highness, look at this. It's really beautiful."

Chu Yuming also felt happy when he looked at the ray of gold shining in the sun.

It was an unexpected surprise that we found gold veins.

Unexpectedly, there is a gold vein hidden in this silver vein. God is really helping him. No matter how many people he supports, he doesn't have to worry about money.

It's really strange, why should we abandon such a good silver vein? Or is it not abandoned, but hidden?

There is a silver vein on this mountain that was abandoned by the previous dynasty. This matter has not been recorded, and not many people know about it. After all, this mountain was originally the property of a wealthy businessman in the previous dynasty. The wealthy businessman originally wanted to try planting tea trees on the mountain.

Unexpectedly, a silver vein was dug out. He knew he couldn't keep it, but he didn't want to hand it over, so he killed everyone who knew about it.

Later, a village was built at the root of the mountain, and trusted people were assigned to take care of the affairs of the village. In reality, they were to guard the mountain.

Who could have imagined that the current situation was turbulent, the previous dynasty was overthrown, and a flash flood occurred and the rocks collapsed. Not to mention the silver vein, the Zhuangzi at the root of the mountain was also buried.

At first, Chu Yuming set his sights on Zhuangzi, which occupies a vast area, and the dense forest on the mountain that could hide people. The discovery of the silver veins was purely accidental.

"How many people know about this?" Chu Yuming was overjoyed and extremely cautious. People who shouldn't know must not know.

"There are no outsiders, we are all our own people." Chen Gui said.

Chu Yuming said: "We must be cautious and cautious. People must be screened regularly. We would rather kill the wrong ones than let them go. If this is accidentally missed, it will not belong to your highness."

Chen Gui nodded and replied, "Yes, the villain will stay here every step of the way. Not even a fly can fly in."

"Yeah." Chu Yuming responded, and then said: "When the matter here is over, you can go to the Sixth Department to fill in the gaps. Don't think your rank is low, just work hard and focus on the future."

Chen Gui understood what he said. His Highness was trying to pave the way for his future. In the future, when Your Highness takes over the throne, he will be the emperor and the courtier. Do you have to worry about his low rank? There is no position he can occupy.

When the time comes, no matter whether he is from the Su family or the Zhou family, humph... he will have to be at his mercy. When the time comes, he will make Zhou Sining kneel down and beg him, and he will make that Su Jiu lick the mud off the soles of his boots.

The more Chen Gui thought about it, the more beautiful it became, so much so that even his eyebrows showed a hint of pride.

Chu Yuming glanced at Chen Gui and was not surprised by his reaction. If he had not had ambitions, he would not have joined him when he had no other way out.

The imperial government has one subject every three years and two subjects every five years. In each subject, there are some unrecommended Jinshi or candidates waiting for Jinshi. They don't know when they will wait. What's more, Chen Gui is a small candidate.

No matter what, it won't be his turn.

But Chen Gui was also lucky and smart enough to choose him to serve. Otherwise, he would never have thought of becoming an official in his life.

Jingcheng, Zhou Family, Chunwu Courtyard.

The tea-tasting and treasure-appraisal party only lasted for five days, but in just five days, it earned nearly one million silver. Of course, this was all thanks to the seventh prince's treasury.

With the experience of the first day, Zhou Sining and the Seventh Prince met and came up with another good way to make money.

The Seventh Prince picked out a few items from his warehouse that looked good as gifts from the royal family. Naturally, they could not be sold, but they could be rewarded in a clever way.

For example, the person who donates the most silver to Yicheng will be rewarded with an imperial ornament, the person who donates the most medicinal materials will be rewarded, and the person who donates the most food will also be rewarded...

In short, no matter what you donate, the person who donates the most will be rewarded with a royal gift. These royal gifts can be used to build a store or pass down the family.

This is the seventh prince's praise on behalf of the emperor for the benevolent and righteous people who generously donated money to support Yicheng.

The Seventh Prince was present in person, and there were a bunch of real gifts from the emperor. Anyone with a quick mind and a little money in his hands would be tempted.

Even some court officials and family members were not far behind and wanted to get a gift from the emperor to add makeup to their daughters and betrothal to their sons.

The seventh prince was quite pleased with this great situation.

This pile of objects that can only be left to rot in the warehouse except for viewing can finally be put to some use.

Things are good, but it also depends on whose eyes it falls on.

In the eyes of the emperor, the seventh prince's move was considered a great kindness. Not only did he know how to contribute to the country and the people, he also knew how to be flexible.

But when it came to Empress Zhang, it became the case. Her princes had no money, so they began to sell the gifts given by the emperor in various ways to make a living.
