The inner transport warehouse is located in the southeast corner of the Forbidden City, not far from Wenyuan Pavilion where the Cabinet Office is located.

In fact, speaking of it, the inner transport warehouse is just one of the twelve inner warehouses of the Ming Dynasty royal family. The reason why people first think of the inner transport warehouse when mentioning the inner warehouse is simply because the inner transport warehouse is specifically responsible for

Just a store of royal gold and silver.

"Oh, I wonder what kind of wind brought you here today, Uncle Guo!"

Upon seeing Wang Bing, Chen Ju, the palm print eunuch in charge of the inner transport warehouse, immediately greeted him with a smile on his face.

Even though Wang Bing has no power or position now, as the eunuchs closest to the emperor, they are very clear about Wang Bing's status in the hearts of the emperor and the queen mother.

After all, the person who can 'marry' all the royal princesses back as equal wives is unprecedented, if not unprecedented!

Therefore, even though Wang Bing has no power or position at the moment, these eunuchs who always look at others' orders would not dare to show any slights.

"Haha, Eunuch Chen, aren't you asking questions knowingly? Now that I'm here in your inner shipping warehouse, what else can I do besides asking for money from you?"

After shaking the little fat man's 'white slip' stamped with the emperor's personal seal, Wang Bing handed it directly to Chen Ju.

"The Marquis is joking, the old slave is just helping the long live master to guard the inner transport warehouse, how dare you call it the old slave's territory, hehehehe!"

With a smile on his face, Chen Ju quickly took the "white slip" prescribed by the little fat man from Wang Bing.

"Four hundred thousand taels?"

When Chen Ju saw the amount of money on the 'white note' with no indication of its purpose, he suddenly couldn't help but look bitter.

"Why, could it be that His Majesty's inner treasury can't even get out 400,000 taels?"

Seeing the hard thinking on Chen Ju's face, Wang Bing couldn't help but frown.

You know, although the amount of money allocated by the national treasury to the inner treasury has not increased every year, as a major shareholder of the Royal Commercial Bank, the dividends paid by the commercial bank in the past two years have far exceeded the gold and silver allocated by the national treasury as usual.

.Not to mention the seizures and other income that Habayashi Wei turned in every time he came back from a battle!

"Uncle, when I return home, it's not that I don't have money. It's just that I don't know how to put the money into my account."

Seeing Wang Bing's frowning expression, Chen Ju quickly explained with a wry smile while taking the 'white slip' Wang Bing gave him.

"Well, you can just put this on my head for the time being. Your Majesty will tell you what name it will be recorded under in the future!"

Only then did Wang Bing notice that there was no indication of the purpose of the money on the note. After a moment of thought, he asked Chang Ju to charge the account to himself. There was no way, before the military academy was built, the little fat man had no intention of putting the money into his account.

This news was leaked. So naturally, the money used to build the military academy would not be used clearly.

"Master Hou, this..."

"Don't worry, I'll take care of you if something happens!"

Later, under the guarantee of Wang Bing, the uncle and consort of the prince, Chen Ju finally recorded the money in the account according to the name Wang Bing said.

…

"Eunuch Chen, can I go in and have a look?"

After completing the 'formalities' and following Chen Ju outside a huge and tightly guarded warehouse, Wang Bing suddenly asked Chen Ju out of curiosity.

"Haha, since Lord Marquis has this interest, why not!"

Chen Ju, who was well aware of Wang Bing's status in the little fat man's heart, directly had two sets of 'work clothes' brought to him. After putting them on, he took Wang Bing into the bank.

‘Hey, I’ll go! No wonder the little fat guy is so generous this time, he’s doing this just to make room!’

As soon as he stepped into the silver warehouse, Wang Bing was surprised by the rows of packed silver racks.

There was no way. Although he knew that the little fat man was not short of money now because of the Royal Commercial Bank, Wang Bing still couldn't help but take a breath of cold air when he saw the countless silver.

"Eunuch Chen, how much money is stored in this warehouse?"

Wang Bing, who was countless, didn't bother to count, so he directly asked Chen Ju.

"Hehe, back to the Marquis, there are only more than four million taels stored in this warehouse!"

In response to Wang Bing's inquiry, Chen Ju couldn't help but smile proudly.

"This warehouse? Does that mean there are other warehouses? How much money do you have in your transportation warehouse now?"

Wang Bing, who heard what he was saying, couldn't help but look at Chen Ju curiously in surprise.

"Hehe, this... this, forget it, Uncle Guo is not an outsider either..."

After a moment's hesitation, Chen Ju whispered a huge number in Wang Bing's ear.

'I'll go! No wonder the little fat man didn't even bother to organize court officials when he founded the military academy. It seems that having money really makes people bold!'

Hearing the huge figures reported by Chen Ju, Wang Bing couldn't help but sigh in his heart!

You know, as far as Wang Bing knows from Little Fatty, as of now, the imperial court's total treasury silver is only about fifteen million taels.

And from Chen Ju's mouth, we learned that relying on the dividend income of the Royal Commercial Bank in recent years, the little fat man's inner treasury already has more than 10 million taels in storage, which is almost as much as the entire national treasury.

Of course, this does not mean that Zhang Juzheng's New Deal reforms are not effective. The main reason is that the previous deficits incurred by the court were too much. In addition, the current New Deal has just been fully rolled out, and the effects of the New Deal have not yet been truly reflected. This makes

People have the illusion that the New Deal is just mediocre.

What's more, in addition to the money in the national treasury, the imperial court also promoted high-yielding crops such as potatoes and corn, and the entire capital's grain depot also stored enough grain to last the entire capital's people for nearly twenty years.

But no matter what, it is an indisputable fact that the emperor, Little Fatty, is extremely rich.

"Master Hou, please..."

Seeing Wang Bing's dumbfounded expression, Chen Ju quickly reminded him in a low voice.

"Don't worry, if it comes out of your mouth or into my ears, no third party will know!"

After shaking his head with emotion again, Wang Bing walked out of the bank.

"Master Marquis, are you going to transport this silver back yourself, or will I send someone to help you transport it back?"

After walking out of the bank, Chen Ju who followed him quickly asked Wang Bing with an attentive look on his face.

"I...well, I'd better ask Eunuch Chen to help me send it back!"

Looking at the dozens of boxes full of silver ingots in front of him, Wang Bing realized that he had come to collect the silver without any helpers.

…

"Lao San, where did you get so much money?"

Looking at the dozens of boxes of silver brought back by Wang Bing, Cheap Daddy couldn't help but look puzzled.

"Haha, don't worry, dad, it wasn't stolen or robbed. This is for your Majesty to build a new house for us!"

After picking up a piece of silver ingot with the words "Internal Transport Depository Flower Silver" printed on it and handing it to his father, Wang Bing started joking with a smile on his face.

"You think you are an old man, are you confused? With this much money, you can build a prince's palace!"

Looking at the silver ingot in his hand, he saw that Mr. Cheap was indeed an experienced veteran who had been in the Ministry of Industry for decades. He exposed Wang Bing's lies at a glance.

"Hehe, there are 100,000 taels here for your Majesty to build a house for our family, and the other 300,000 taels, hehe, are for your Majesty to build a house for!"

Wang Bing did not mention the construction of a military academy. Wang Bing just used the excuse of building a house to fool him.

"Well, it is indeed too small for two daughters-in-law to stay in your small courtyard. It seems that it is indeed time to build your palace, haha!"
