Chapter 201 Grab the money bag
Regarding this huge gold and silver income obtained by the salt merchants, Zhao Xing decided to leave four million to remit the border army's owed wages, so that the border army could breathe. At the same time, he also left a follow-up reserve of 500,000 taels of silver for the army he controlled. After all, the war was about to begin, and the burning of money began, and he had to have money to burn.
As for the border troops in Shanxi, in order to make Geng Ruqi die faster, he was not going to help. The emperor gave his own tasks and did not say this. Why should he be thankless?
Zhao Xing was preparing to give Chongzhen the remaining three million silver and the small treasury of the Salt Censor. In this way, this time he gave Chongzhen a full income of six million silver, which would definitely enhance his strength for the victory of the future battle to defend the capital.
As for the huge sum of money that was not in history, which changed the end of the war, Zhao Xing did not have that extravagant hope. How much is the possibility of the money being handed over to the army by those officials? Zhao Xing is absolutely sure - it is very slim.
The reason for handing over is that one must be to determine the legality of handling cases by oneself, and the other is to allow this huge sum of money to buy an official position in disguise in front of the cabinet and Chongzhen - the Shanxi Salt Censor, a continuous future of money bags.
This position is very important, so Zhao Xing was going to hand it over to Sun Chuanting, because in Zhao Xing's heart, Sun Chuanting was already his own person. As long as he sat on this wallet, he could not only support the border army, but also buy the entire northwest foundation for himself.
After dividing these divisions, Zhao Xing began to deal with subsequent issues.
There is no good official in the Yan Yan Censorate's Office. Even if there is one, it is still the same as before. This is a conclusion. The vacancy of officials is not under the jurisdiction of Zhao Xing, especially Zhao Xing did not dare to take care of it. This still requires the court to take charge of it.
But Zhao Xing still took out the list of the people he had in his arms that the old country bus had taken in. After carefully selecting it with Cui Yan, he gave Emperor Chongzhen a recommendation list.
Also, I would like to give the future Yan Yan Censor Sun Chuanting a copy, so that he would promote these people after selecting his own people. These are all his own teams in the future and they need to be slowly cultivated.
The rest is military control, no, to be precise, the Jinyiwei supervises the Yanshi Censorate Office of Yuncheng. To put it nicely, it is waiting for the court's arrangements. To put it nicely, it is to firmly grasp the money bag for training the northwest army.
In the original Censor's Office lobby, Zhao Xing formally summoned Zhou Biao.
Zhou Biao is really full of energy now and walks with the wind, because he understands that now, because of this great contribution, is the confidant of the Lord Shufu, and his future is unlimited.
The first sentence Zhao Xing summoned him was: "This time, you have made great contributions, but I still have to let you down." After saying this, he stopped talking, but stared at Zhou Biao with his eyes narrowed and looked at him, looking at his expression.
When Zhou Biao heard this, he was disappointed at the time, but he still suppressed the disappointment in his heart and bowed calmly: "Why do you feel wronged for your elders and for your country? If you need your subordinates to go through fire and water, you will still be willing to refuse."
Zhao Xing relaxed and relieved: "Fortunately, you didn't disappoint me. Well, I'm going to set up a hundred households in Yuncheng, this place with a wallet, in the newly established Yan Yan Censor's Office in the future. I think you are more suitable."
When I heard this, although Zhao Xing had not realized the position of Qianhou that he promised, this position is more important than the positions of other Qianhou, and it is more oily and fatter. What is a reward? This is the real reward.
Zhou Biao knelt down without hesitation, on both knees: "Mr. Thank you for your cultivation."
Zhao Xing raised his hand and called him up: "I am going to set up a hundred households in the Beifu Division of the Jinyiwei in the new Yan Yan Censorate. At the same time, I will report to the emperor, because Yan Shu became an accomplice of the Yan Yan Censor and became a force to threaten the court, so I will let you, our Jinyiwei, supervise and command the Yan Shu."
Zhou Biao immediately understood what Zhao Xing meant and immediately knelt down again: "I'm so tired of the adults."
In fact, Zhao Xing's arrangement was based on two reasons. One was to firmly control Hedong salt in his own hands, and the other was to monitor Sun Chuanting.
Sun Chuanting had already boarded his own chariot and was also a capable minister in the late Ming Dynasty, but he was truly loyal to the Ming Dynasty. In the future, he might do things that Sun Chuanting could not tolerate in order to protect himself. Then, this capable minister who was loyal to the Ming Dynasty might be his enemy.
Watching him, this is a must.
"You are all your family when you get up, so there is no need to kneel down. Let's sit down and talk."
Zhifeng personally brought a chair and said to Zhou Biao with a smile: "Our adults are to punish the enemy to death; but to his own brothers, you will understand slowly."
Zhifeng's words also have two meanings. One is that Zhao Xing is merciless towards the enemy, and the second is that he can be free from restraint on his own people. The core meaning is that if you are the enemy of our adults, you must be dead, and as the confidant of the adults, you will live a very nourishing life.
The current official atmosphere is either this or that, and there must be no middle between black and white. From the day you help our adults, it is impossible for you to withdraw. Because even after you withdraw, if we don’t kill you, other forces will never forgive you, a stained person.
Of course, Zhou Biao knew this and thanked Zhao Xing for his absolute trust and heavy responsibilities. In fact, handing over the heavy responsibilities to someone can better highlight the trust in this person.
Looking at Zhou Biao, Zhao Xing said again: "I will now sign you as a hundred households in the Pacification Division." Seeing Zhou Biao preparing to kneel down again, Zhao Xing waved: "Do you understand the salt soldiers here supervising the salt squad here?"
Zhou Biao hesitated: "But this is not in line with the system."
Zhao Xing smiled: "The system is a system, but it can be adapted. I have nominated the new salt inspector. I think the emperor will not refute it, and the cabinet will pass it. Therefore, there should be no problem with my proposal Sun Chuanting, so you can rest assured to serve."
Zhou Biao really doesn't understand how powerful his adults are with such a confident arrangement.
"Since I am a confidant from my family, I will openly talk. Yuncheng salt must be firmly held in our hands, but this is not my selfish interest, but to provide a steady stream of military pay, money and food for the 300,000 soldiers on the three sides in the future. This is my responsibility. I must not place this income under the full control of others. Do you understand this?"
Zhou Biaozheng pointed: "I understand, I understand."
Whether Sun Chuanting can violate history and continue to endure it, whether the emperor supports his proposal, and whether he can pass his proposal is unknown.
