"Brother Ziyu, you and I are brothers. We hope to be careful when handling money."

"Expenditure accounts must be clear and verifiable, and there must be no sloppiness."

Zhu Yunfei left such a large amount of money to Song Mei, which was a sign of trust in him.

But there are some things he still has to say beforehand, so as not to make a mistake in the end and there is no room for recovery.

"General, don't worry, I, Song Mei, will never live up to your trust." Song Mei's life has changed.

Historically, he died the year before last when the Jiannu invaded Shandong. Now he not only survived, but also sat in the position of Minister of Household Affairs.

It can be said that Zhu Yunfei is his reborn parent.

Nowadays, most of the children of the Song family are working under Zhu Yunfei's tent.

"The national situation is difficult. As the Minister of Household Affairs, you must pay more attention." Zhu Yunfei nodded.

"When things happen, there are more things that Huang Xigun and Jiang Chen need to discuss. Huang Xigun and Jiang Chen are both practical people. You must cooperate sincerely."

Jiang Chen is the left minister of the household department, and Huang Xigun is the right minister of the household department.

Although Jiang Chen is not Zhu Yunfei's confidant, he has unique insights into financial management. He once served as the director of the Ministry of Household Affairs and a member of the Foreign Affairs Bureau.

He also participated in the policy and consultation of the imperial court, and even Emperor Chongzhen praised him highly.

Moreover, he believed that to solve the financial problem, the treasure banknote law should be restarted, using treasure banknotes to replace heavy copper coins, and making silver widely circulated.

It is a pity that some of his opinions were not recognized and supported by the court.

He was able to serve as the left minister of the household department because he was recommended by Zhang Sanmo, the young minister of Dali Temple.

It was recommended by Gao Hongtu in the cabinet, and with the approval of cabinet ministers, he was reported to the Queen Mother Zhang Yan for appointment as the Left Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs.

"Don't worry, General, I will definitely take charge of the household department."

Song Mei did not join the cabinet this time, mainly because she did not have enough qualifications and her abilities have yet to be tested.

After he has completed his position as Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, it is obviously not difficult for him to enter the cabinet and pay homage to the Prime Minister.

"Tomorrow I will ask Wang Zuntan to send this money to the Ministry of Household Affairs, but five million guan will be spent as military expenses."

"Three million of them were sent to Commander Sun to be used for military expenses."

"One million guans were allocated to Anqing, Luzhou Commander-in-Chief Huang Degong, and one million guans were allocated to each battalion of the Beijing camp as a reward for entering Beijing this time."

"From now on, half of the money of the Ministry of Revenue will be allocated to the army. Even if the officials in the rear have a little more hardship, I believe they can persevere."

"But if our soldiers on the front line don't have money and food to support them, losing their lives is a trivial matter. Once the soldiers fight in bloody battles and don't get the rewards they deserve, their country will be destroyed and their family will be destroyed."

While Zhu Yunfei was saying this, officials of all sizes, including Jiang Chen, the left minister of the Ministry of Revenue, Huang Xigan, the right minister, and Huang Xigan, the minister in charge, all rushed to the lobby of the Ministry of Revenue.

Facing Zhu Yunfei's heartfelt words, hundreds of officials in the Hubu Yamen, large and small, had different expressions.

But it still touched my heart, especially some young officials.

They have not yet realized the complex human nature of officialdom, and are still passionate about serving the imperial court.

"The general said it well. I, Huang Xigun, must bear in mind the teachings of the general, manage the court's money bag well, and strive to use every penny in practical ways."

Huang Xigun was a proud man who became a high school scholar at the age of twenty.

After several years of ups and downs in the officialdom, he has obviously matured a lot. You must know that he is only in his early twenties now.

"Yes, we support the imperial court and the general." The young officials, led by Huang Xigun, raised their arms and shouted.

"Thank you colleagues for your support. I, Zhu Yunfei, would like to thank you all."

Zhu Yunfei bowed his hands, and when he raised his head, his bright eyes swept across all the household officials in the lobby.

With a stern look on his face, he said slowly: "When I was an official in Shandong, I saw famous ministers of our dynasty, including the old ministers of the six emperors of Ming Dynasty: Chengzu, Renzong, Xuanzong, Yingzong, Daizong and Xianzong, the governor of Shandong.

."

"The motto I left in Tai'an is here today and I give it to everyone here. I hope you will keep it in mind."

Under the gaze of everyone, Zhu Yunfei spoke clearly word by word.

"Officials do not fear my strictness but fear my integrity; the people do not obey my ability but obey my public. If I am honest, the officials will not dare to be arrogant; if I am honest, the people will not dare to bully. Publicity breeds wisdom, and honesty breeds authority."

"I would like to reiterate here once again that justice breeds justice and integrity breeds prestige."

"I hope you all will keep this in mind and encourage yourselves together."

"Well said, great!" Zhu Yunfei's words once again won a round of applause and warm applause.

Although there are many corrupt officials in the officialdom, there are also young officials with lofty aspirations.

It's just that many times, in the big dye vat of officialdom, it's just dyed black.

After all, in the world of crows, even holy white is sin.

But Zhu Yunfei's speech at the Ministry of Household Affairs today will make the Ministry of Household Affairs the most honest department among the six ministries of the Central Government in the coming years.

"Captain Zhu, you are indeed the respected commander." Hu Ke said to Zhao Yuan, looking at Zhu Yunfei's leaving figure, his face full of admiration.

Doctor Hubu returned to the village and said leisurely: "Every time I listen to Zhu Shanchang's lectures, my blood boils. It's really fascinating."

Guizhuang and Zhao Yuan were both students at the Huanghai Martial Arts Hall, and both had listened to Zhu Yunfei's teachings.

Students at the Huanghai Martial Arts Hall also like to call Zhu Yunfei the chief of the mountain (the chief of the mountain in ancient times was the principal).

Just after returning to the General's Mansion from the Ministry of Household Affairs, one of the six Cao Cao in the General's Mansion, Yuan Fucheng, the Chief of Li Cao, came to greet him.

"The great general, Jingnanbo, Anqing, and the commander-in-chief of Luzhou, General Huang Degong, came to visit and are now waiting in the east chamber guest room."

Yuan Fucheng is the eldest son of Yuan Shu. Yuan Fucheng has a well-educated family background. He is only in his early twenties now, but he is quite talented in literature.

Now Zhu Yunfei has opened a mansion, and there are many officials in the general's mansion.

They are the chief historian of the fifth rank of the General's Office, the Sima of the sixth rank who joined the army, the chief minister of the sixth rank, the chief minister of the sixth rank of the seventh rank, and one person each. In addition, there are eight-rank and ninth-rank officials such as the experience department and the examination department.

Yesterday Zhu Yunfei dispatched Xu Zuolin, Shen Shourong and others to form an inspection team, and now they have begun self-examination of the military discipline of each battalion in the army.

"I'll go over right away. If there are any more guests coming, you can ask why they're here. Anyone who gives gifts and takes away favors will not be seen."

Zhu Yunfei nodded, and escorted by a group of soldiers led by Cao Ming, he went all the way to the east chamber guest room.

Cao Ming now also has a new position, that is, he is a member of the General's Office and a Sima of the army, and also serves as the general of the army.

Now the number of pro-army troops under his account has been expanded to one person, and two officers have been promoted to assist him in handling the affairs of the Chinese army.

One of the two cadre households is named Shen Shouyao and the other is named Wang Wu.

Shen Shouyao was only seventeen years old. He was Shen Shourong's eighth brother and Shen Yourong's youngest son. This boy was born with supernatural powers. He was good at horseback riding and archery, and was good at marksmanship. He was a rare warrior.

Wang Wu is a member of Wang Ju's tribe. He is more than eight feet tall and one meter nine. He is good at using a mountain axe. Although he has no education, he is honest and honest.

Although Zhu Yunfei himself has extraordinary martial arts, he is never careless and always brings a bodyguard with him whenever he travels.

Because he knows very well that one punch cannot defeat four hands.

"For your humble position, please refer to the General of Zhennan Marquis." Huang Degong, who was in the east chamber living room, saw Zhu Yunfei's arrival. He, dressed in robes, immediately knelt down and bowed.

Huang Degong is about in his early forties, tall and burly, with a square face, thick eyebrows and big eyes. Although he is rough, he is quite majestic.

Huang Degong, who joined the army at the age of fifteen, has been in the army for thirty years. With the spirit of daring to fight and fight, he rose from a small soldier to the position of admiral, commander-in-chief of two towns, and a count.

"Uncle Jingnan, please get up quickly. I am a junior and cannot afford such a great gift."

Zhu Yunfei stepped forward quickly, helped Huang Degong up, and sat down with his hands together.

"Uncle Jingnan, what do you think of the current situation?" After sitting down, Zhu Yunfei asked him about the situation in the military, which brought them closer to each other.

Then the conversation changed and I asked him about his views on the current situation.

Huang Degong looked at Zhu Yunfei hesitantly, hesitated for a moment, and then said firmly: "The world is in chaos, so we should establish a wise king early to rectify the rule."

"Only in this way can we call on the soldiers and horses from all over the world to clear out the rebels, march north to the Central Plains, regain the lost territory, and revitalize the Ming Dynasty."

"Hahaha……"

Zhu Yunfei couldn't help laughing and said: "Uncle Jingnan, he is indeed an upright and frank person. Zhu admires him."

"General, what do you mean?" Huang Degong asked awkwardly.
