Daming: The Beginning Awakening Ghost Dance Tsuji Muzan Template

Zhang Xun's heart tightened when he heard this. What was coming could not be avoided after all! It seemed that his guess was correct. The emperor must have asked for money again!

"Let's decide to build a road and build a cement road from Yingtian to the northwest!"

Zhu Yuanzhang said slowly.

"Hasn't His Royal Highness Prince Su been building roads?".

Zhang Xun asked with a puzzled look on his face.

Because the fact that Ganzhou is building roads now is no longer a secret!

Not only has Ganzhou's cement road been built to Xi'an Prefecture, it is also continuing to expand outward. Now it has been built to Danfeng County, Shangluo!

Although it is still in Shaanxi, it will enter Henan in the southeast!

Zhu Yuanzhang was speechless when he heard this!

What is Zhang Xun thinking?

Isn't this guy thinking of asking the fourteenth old man to pay for the road?

"Why do you think the Prince of Su wants to build a cement road to Henan?"

"If we hadn't discussed it with the Fourteenth Old Man, this road might not be from Xi'an Prefecture to Henan, but directly from Ganzhou to Chengdu Basin!"

"Even the King of Shu knows the benefits of building a road. As the Minister of Revenue, it is impossible for Zhang Aiqing to not see it?"

427

Zhu Yuanzhang asked with a somewhat dissatisfied tone.

Zhang Huan smiled bitterly!

How could he, the Minister of Revenue, not know the benefits of building a cement road? It is definitely beneficial to the country and the people. For example, recently, the supply of honeycomb coal in the northwest has been in short supply due to transportation problems!

If there is a cement road directly leading to Jiangnan, more honeycomb coal can be transported here! The production of honeycomb coal in the northwest is sufficient, but if it cannot be transported, it will be in vain!

But Zhang Huan also has his plans!

Anyway, Prince Su and Prince Shu are willing to pay for the road construction themselves, so why should they pay for the court? He is also saving a lot of money for the court! But judging from the emperor's attitude, he seems very dissatisfied with this!

It is really difficult to be the Minister of Revenue!

"This... I naturally know the benefits of road construction!"

"But although there are still millions of taels of silver in the treasury, we can't use all of it to build roads!"

"And before that, you also want to promote rubber planting, which is also a considerable expense!"

Zhang Xun explained with embarrassment.

"Whether it is rubber planting or road construction, it is good for the country and the people. Since you think it is a good thing, why do you have any objection?"

"The rubber seeds will not be given away for free, and the cement for road construction will not be given away for free. The Ministry of Revenue will approve as much money as it should!"

"The treasury is so full during this period. If this money is not used, it will be no different from a pile of scrap metal in the treasury!"

Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand and said nonchalantly.

Besides, the court is not left with only a few million taels of silver.Isn't there a steady stream of money to be earned every month? This is also the confidence of Zhu Yuanzhang!

"This... I obey your order!"

Zhang Xun sighed helplessly.

He knew that Zhu Yuanzhang invited him to dinner today and discussed with him in a good tone, which was already giving him enough face! If he still didn't know how to appreciate it and had to go against Zhu Yuanzhang, it would be a bit unreasonable. As the head of the Ministry of Revenue, Zhang Xun also had to judge the situation and it was a compulsory course!

And from this point, it can be seen that His Majesty still values ​​him very much!

If it were other ministers, Zhu Yuanzhang would probably have issued an imperial edict directly. Who would discuss with you? We are just notifying you directly! So although Zhang Xun is stingy, he is also clear about some issues! Mainly, it was road construction and rubber tree planting, which were indeed good things. He just felt sorry for the money invested in the early stage, but he was not against road construction or rubber planting! "We know that Zhang Aiqing knows the general situation!"

"In that case, the money for road construction and rubber planting will be paid by the Ministry of Revenue. Send someone to talk directly with Prince Su!"

Zhu Yuanzhang saw that Zhang Xun had given in, and nodded with satisfaction!

Although this old guy is a stingy person on weekdays, he is still very sensible at critical moments! ...

Beiping Yanwang Mansion.

Ten days passed quickly.

Zhu Di looked at the reply that the court had just sent, his face was ashen! The old man actually rejected his request, and this year he would not give Beiping a penny of money and food! The only thing that made Zhu Di feel a little better was that all the princes were treated in this way, not just for him, Zhu Di! Of course, he didn't know that it was because of him that the old man rejected all the requests of other princes! Sooner or later, he would have to take the blame for this matter!

In fact, it wasn't that Zhu Di suddenly had a brain attack and asked Zhu Yuanzhang for a huge sum! He just didn't want to accept it and wanted to test the old man's attitude towards him!

In the final analysis, it was because of the fourteenth old man. He felt that the old man was too partial and gave all the benefits to the fourteenth old man!

He just wanted to see what kind of weight he would have in the old man's heart? Although Zhu Di himself felt that it was too much to ask for a million taels of silver at the beginning, in his opinion, even if the old man disagreed, he should give a little! Even if it was two or three hundred thousand taels, it would be a little higher than in previous years!

But he didn't expect that the old man would do it so decisively!

This also made him feel that the old man was too good to the fourteenth old man!

"Master, what do you think about this?"

Zhu Di asked Yao Guangxiao with a sullen face.

"Your Highness, you don't have to be so persistent. Even if His Majesty didn't agree to give food and money, it doesn't mean anything. Didn't all the princes not give it?"

Yao Guangxiao smiled disapprovingly.

In his opinion, Zhu Di was overthinking!

To put it bluntly, he was jealous of Prince Su Zhu Li andAlready!

Many times, it is often because of a little benefit in front of us that people are easily confused. Zhu Di may be in this state! "You mean, the emperor did not favor the old fourteenth?"??

Zhu Di frowned! "In fact, the prince of Su can develop to the current level. Your Majesty at most did not stop him. Have you ever seen your majesty help him?"

"On the contrary, Prince of Su Zhu Jian can also help the court. For example, in the matter of refined salt, it can let the court follow the instructions!"

"To put it bluntly, that is indeed the ability of Prince of Su!"

"If your highness can also have this ability, then the one who is worried now may be Prince of Su!"

"There is no such thing as partiality!"

Yao Guangxiao reminded him with worry.

Hearing this, Zhu Di's face became more and more ugly! .
