"What? Third brother, did you promise sir?"

After hearing that Wang Bing agreed that the expenses for Zhang Juzheng's military performance in the ban were paid by the internal treasury, the little fat man, who was originally excited because Zhang Juzheng agreed to the martial arts performance in the ban, immediately put on a picture as if his face changed.

A very distressed expression.

Sure enough, the little fat man is indeed the emperor who loves money the most in history. This kind of innate greed for money does not need to be cultivated deliberately.

"Your Majesty, these are the Royal Guards that you lead personally. Do you think it's better to let them take the country's money or take you, the emperor's personal money?" Seeing the pained expression on the little fat man's face, Wang Bing was also speechless.

"Third brother, there is a certain amount of money allocated from the national treasury to the internal treasury every year. It's okay to say that there are few people now, but if the time comes in the future, where will my internal treasury get so much money to support this expansion?" Speaking of the future expansion,

The little fat man felt even more pain.

"What's so difficult about this? If the national treasury doesn't allocate more money to the inner treasury, your majesty, you can earn it yourself?" Wang Bing couldn't help but laugh when he thought of the various ways in which the little fat man used money all over the country.

"Earn it by yourself? Yes, why didn't I think of it? Let me think about it, I can let the servants go out as tax inspectors to collect mining and commercial taxes, hahahaha!" When Wang Bing said, "Earn money by yourself," the little fat man

As expected of the emperor who loved money the most in history, he immediately became self-taught.

"Your Majesty, let's not talk about whether these tax inspectors can be sent out. Even if they are sent out, how much can they receive? And you have to bear the reputation of being greedy for money. Besides, there are better ways to make money.

, why do you have to use such a method where you get scolded and can’t make much money?”

Seeing the little fat man's excitement of "I" and "I" at the same time, Wang Bing couldn't help but was speechless for a while. I told you to make money on your own, and I didn't ask you to steal money!

"Well, you're right, Third Brother. If I really send the tax inspector out, Mr. Zhang will probably drive him back before we even leave the Forbidden City. Hehe! By the way, you just said there is a better way.

Tell me!" The little fat man laughed sarcastically at first, and then immediately looked at Wang Bing with bright eyes.

"Of course it's business! Otherwise, how can we make money? Seeing the little fat man's silvery eyes, Wang Bing couldn't help but look helpless.

"Assessing business? What kind of business can earn more than sending tax inspectors out?" When Wang Bing said it was business, the little fat man suddenly lost interest.

"Your Majesty, has he forgotten that the late emperor lifted the maritime ban? We can do business with silk, tea, and porcelain overseas. This is much more profitable than sending some tax inspector out to collect taxes!" Seeing that the little fat man was not interested,

Looking disappointed, Wang Bing quickly reminded him.

Speaking of which, since Longqing opened the sea in the Ming Dynasty, overseas silver has flowed to China like water. Experts in later generations have calculated that from the first year of Longqing to the seventeenth year of Chongzhen, nearly

One-third of the silver flowed to the Ming Dynasty. In the six years of Longqing alone, nearly half of the silver flowed to the Ming Dynasty.

The reason for such a large trade surplus was China's unique commodities such as tea, silk and porcelain. These commodities could be said to be proper luxuries in various countries around the world at that time, and they were also indispensable luxuries.

"Third brother, it's easy for you to say it. This business also requires capital. Where can I find so much money to use as capital? Besides, where can I find people? I can't go into battle personally as an emperor!

"

Yes, the emperor is the emperor, and he is used to collecting taxes. When he thinks of investing capital in doing business, the little fat man's greedy temper that can only get in or out immediately comes back.

"Your Majesty, the princes and nobles in the capital have a lot of money, it depends on how you get it!" Seeing the little fat man crying about poverty, Wang Bing immediately pointed out a way for him.

"Well, Third Brother, although the money from the confiscation comes quickly, there must be a justifiable crime, right?"

"puff!"

Hearing the little fat man's embarrassed expression, Wang Bing almost choked on his tea.

"Your Majesty, what I am saying is that we can set up a royal trading house and let these princes and nobles take shares... Then they will provide people and efforts to do this business. Your Majesty will just sit back and wait for the money!"

In order to prevent the little fat man from saying any more ground-breaking 'fantastic ideas', Wang Bing did not care about being tempted, so he had to directly introduce all his plans to the little fat man in detail.

"So, all I need is a royal name?" When he heard that he didn't have to pay any money, the little fat man immediately became interested.

"That's right! But if your Majesty wants to make more money, it's better to invest more capital. After all, we are doing business, not robbery!" Seeing the stingy look of the little fat man, Wang Bing suddenly felt a little tired.

.

"Lao San, since this is a trading company, someone must be in charge, right? We can't let outsiders take over." It has to be said that the little fat man is talented when it comes to making money. The reason why he thought of ransacking the house before was that

It's just a moment of inertia.

"Of course, and since it is a royal trading company, it is natural that someone from the royal family will be in charge. We can let Wu Qingbo talk to the Queen Mother first, and your Majesty will discuss it with the Queen Mother of the two palaces at that time. With Wu Qingbo and Gu'anbo two

It will be okay if the family takes the lead, and when the time comes, they will take turns taking charge of the Royal Commercial Bank!"

Regarding the establishment of the Royal Trading Company, he actually had this plan when Li Chengming asked him to help find a way. However, he had been waiting for Zhang Juzheng's reply on the ban on martial arts, and had no chance to talk to the little fat man.

Just discuss.

Now that the little fat man has agreed to this method, he can talk to Li Chengming first, and then let Wu Qingbo go and have a chat with Queen Mother Li first. It will be much simpler for the little fat man to talk about it then.

"Third brother, since both Wu Qingbo and Gu'anbo are involved, I can't favor one over the other. Your family should also come together, otherwise my little sister will blame me in the future!" Just when Wang Bing was thinking about asking Wu Qingbo to go to Queen Mother Li first.

When they were standing in front of each other, the little fat man suddenly opened his mouth and asked his family to get involved.

"Well, let Wu Qingbo and Gu'anbo take the lead. Our family will just buy individual stocks when the time comes. Dad is also busy promoting potatoes and corn!"

Speaking of which, although the father-in-law of the country, Cheap Daddy, was conferred the title of Yongnian Bo, the imperial court never took back the matter of promoting the cultivation of sweet potatoes. Not only that, even the matter of promoting corn and potatoes that was discovered from Shanglinyuan some time ago has not been taken back.

They were also handed over to Cheap Daddy. So compared to the leisure life of other father-in-laws, Cheap Daddy, the father-in-law of a country, lived a very fulfilling life!

"Well, that's right. The promotion of sweet potato and corn is a big deal and cannot be delayed! As for the establishment of the Royal Commercial Bank, Third Brother, please say hello to Li Chengming and ask Wu Qingbo to talk to the Queen Mother first. We still need to ban Zhongzhong first.
