Capital Silver Cang.

This is a warehouse located on the east side of the palace, where the Household Office is located, and is guarded by the Jingying camp.

Responsible for collecting tax money sent from all over the country.

Just a month ago, the place was empty and filled with rats.

The reason is simple: Dali's treasury has been in deficit for three dynasties.

Regardless of whether it is silver or grain, the goods shipped from the north to the capital have no chance to be warehoused. They are either sent ashore along the canal to the front line, or they are sent directly to the border crossing across the capital.

Only when the court has "surplus" money and food will it be put into the warehouse.

This is a metaphor for the treasury's running rats - financial deficit and inability to make ends meet.

However, the silver warehouse at this time.

When the first ray of sunlight in the morning shines through the hole in the roof of the warehouse, it immediately reflects the yellow glow.

The entire silver warehouse was dyed with a layer of gold.

Looking carefully, I saw a lot of piles on the ground. The white ones were silver and the yellow ones were gold. They were not packed in boxes. They were just dumped on the ground. There were countless treasures of all kinds mixed in them. Pearls, corals, etc.

Jade...everything is available.

The thickest part of the stack is as tall as a person, making it a spectacular sight.

In the middle of the silver warehouse is a large bed built with gold bars.

Each gold bar is carefully selected and stacked very evenly, as high as half a person.

At this time, a strong man with a beard was lying on the wine jar, snoring loudly. Next to him, a sword with a ghost head exuded a dense evil aura.

That ray of sunlight was shining on the corner of the big bed.

At this moment, the wine jar slipped from the strong man's hand, waking him up.

The strong man's eyelids slowly opened, revealing a pair of eyes filled with black energy, which was particularly frightening.

This person is none other than Ruhou, Liu Zongmin, the general of the Chuang Army.

"Come here." The strong man stood up and stretched, and his bones and muscles suddenly crackled.

"General!"

The door of the bank opened, and a middle-aged man dressed as a scribe strode in. Behind him were several carts filled with gold and silver jewelry.

The soldiers pushing the cart skillfully poured down the gold and silver jewelry and hurriedly pushed the cart away.

Looking carefully, the gold and silver jewelry were covered with bright red spots, and the cold wind carried a slight fishy smell, which immediately filled the entire silver warehouse.

"How many are there?" Liu Zongmin glanced at the newly purchased gold and silver and looked at the middle-aged scribe.

The middle-aged scribe's face was full of flattery, and he smiled and said: "Back to the general, including this batch, the total is 79.6 million taels."

"Almost 80 million?" Liu Zongmin rubbed his hands, paused and asked again: "What is the number after 10 million?"

"General, after tens of millions, it should be hundreds of millions." The middle-aged scribe smiled. M.

"100 million?"

Liu Zongmin tasted the word carefully, licked his tongue, and with a flash of extreme greed in his eyes, he said: "Has there ever been a person with a fortune of 100 million before?"

"Absolutely not."

The middle-aged scribe shook his head and said with a hint of encouragement in his tone: "General, if you have a fortune of 100 million, no one in the history of history can surpass you."

"Hahahaha~"

Liu Zongmin's face showed excitement and he said: "I think about Liu Zongmin. In the past, when I didn't have enough food and clothing, I had to look at the landlord's face for everything. But I didn't expect that I, Liu Zongmin, have inexhaustible money today, so good!"

"One hundred million, right? Then go for 100 million taels. I, Liu Zongmin, must become the richest person!"

"But General, all the officials and princes in the city have already been donated. It will be difficult to get the remaining 20 million taels from them." The middle-aged scribe looked embarrassed.

"Um?"

Liu Zongmin's face suddenly darkened and he said angrily: "Then think of a way."

A flash of light flashed in the middle-aged scribe's eyes, and he said: "Back to General, there is a way. There are still many wealthy businessmen in the capital. They haven't donated yet, that is..."

At the end of his words, he stopped talking.

"What is that?" Liu Zongmin stared.

The middle-aged scribe suddenly shrank his neck and did not dare to show off any more, saying: "It's just the Prime Minister who won't let me..."

"Li Yan? Bah!"

Liu Zongmin was immediately furious, kicked the golden bed down, and said in a cold voice: "Where was he when I raised troops with Emperor Shun? Where was he when I followed Emperor Shun to conquer the east and west? Emperor Shun and I were beaten

Where was he when there were only eighteen riders left? We conquered the world with Emperor Shun, and he turned the blame on me, so who is he?"

"The general is absolutely right."

The middle-aged scribe hurriedly agreed and said righteously: "Li Yan is just a poor man. He has never even held an official position. He dares to use the chicken feathers given by Emperor Shun as arrows and point fingers, and he doesn't even know how to urinate and take pictures."

What am I?"

"But General, there's no need to get angry with him, because he's almost done for being a bully." A cold smile appeared on the middle-aged scribe's face, and he muttered in Liu Zongmin's ear for a while.

Liu Zongmin's eyes suddenly brightened up after hearing this, and he said: "You mean, the body of that dog emperor in Chongzheng is missing, and Li Yan, Li Daitao, Zong, deliberately covered it up for evil purposes?"

"Exactly." The middle-aged scribe nodded repeatedly.

"Okay, okay, Niu Jinxing, I saw you right, the general." Liu Zongmin pointed at the middle-aged scribe and said, "Follow me into the palace now. This time I want him, Li Yan, to look good."

"This is exactly what I mean."

After saying that, the two of them went out together and left.

Only the remaining sound is returned.

“Where in the capital has the most wealthy households?”

"Go back to the general. There are many merchants at the wharf. There must be a lot of gold and silver there, especially the Green Ox Immortal Temple. My subordinates reported that the statues are made of silver and pasted with gold foil, and the ox is made of copper. It is very impressive."

"What temple?"

"A wild fairy riding a bull has some evil ways."
