Chapter 15 To be a eunuch?

"When you go back to Your Majesty, it's at least tens of thousands of coins a year." Xu Qilin listed a conservative number and continued: "I have thousands of stations in the Tang Dynasty, and only half of them are taken, and it is normal for 500,000 to 30,000 coins a year to earn 500,000 coins a year."

His Majesty Li Er raised his eyebrows and looked down at the documents, but his heart was filled with turmoil.

There are not many records in history of the Tang Dynasty's treasury revenue. According to experts' estimates, different eras have different.

For example, the income in a certain year of Kaiyuan was more than 25 million stones of millet, more than 25 million stones of cloth, silk and cotton were buried, and more than 2 million guan, totaling more than 30 million guan.

However, the population during the Zhenguan period was more than 3 million households, and during the Kaiyuan period it was more than 10 million households, which was more than three times the difference. In addition, the frequent wars during the Zhenguan period, the national fiscal revenue at that time should be only a lot or a lot.

Let’s take a look at the commercial real estate outside Jinguang Gate. The commercial real estate outside Chunli Gate is only tens of thousands of yuan in income. Even if you add a residence store next to the inn, it will have an income of only fifty thousand yuan per year.

Compared with the 10 million guan of national fiscal revenue, these 50,000 guan is less than one-fifth.

But the money was made easily and comfortable, and it didn't take a penny from the country. Xu Qilin paid the start-up capital and repurchased it again, and made a lot of money.

In other words, it doesn’t depend on how much money you make. What is most admirable is Xu Qilin’s business methods and flexible thinking.

This kid is really a money-making expert and a financial genius!

Dong Li glanced at Xu Qilin, and saw him sitting peacefully, looking like an old god, and couldn't help but snorted secretly, thinking: This little brat is pretending to be calm and light, just waiting for my reward!

Moreover, the documents are very detailed, and when handed over, it means that you will quit. Wait until the house is built, you will get the reward of "10 to 10" and rent it out and you can count the money every day!

Anyway, the business model has been paved, and there is no need for an outsider Xu Qilin to command the construction of a house. Your Majesty Li Er is willing to give these houses to the branch office, or stay in the inner palace, so Xu Qilin doesn’t care!

His Majesty Li Er is really hesitant to deal with these houses and what burden to Xu Qilin in the future.

"Tang inherited the Sui system", so in the early Tang Dynasty, the state system of the Sui Dynasty was basically inherited, and the treasury system was the same.

During the Sui Dynasty, the Taifu Temple was in charge of the Left, Right, Huang Zang and other departments, which shows that the royal treasury is still confused with the state treasury. Of course, Huang Zang only serves the palace, so there are few officials, and its scale is not as large as that of the left and right treasury.

Emperor Yang of Sui separated the Shaofu Supervisor, which was in charge of handicrafts, from Taifu Temple, thus making Taifu Temple a full-time treasury department. In particular, Huang Zang was assigned to Changqiu Supervisor (Sui Yu Province), and made Taifu Temple a veritable treasury department.

During the Zhenguan period, His Majesty Li Er re-established the Shaofu Supervisor and strengthened the treasury department. Therefore, a relatively complete and sound treasury management system was initially determined.

Although the treasury system was initially determined, it has not been completely finalized. It is currently manifested as the management of the treasury cashier always has interference from the royal family, that is, the contradiction between treasury allocation and royal consumption.

In the first month of the fifth year of Zhenguan, His Majesty Li Er gave him more than 3rd rank silk, "Let the weight be, and try your best to get the goods out of the warehouse." If you can carry it, carry it home. If you carry it less, you can only blame yourself for your poor health.

In the same year, the Renshou Palace was completed and the Luoyang Palace was restored, so that the national treasury "has treasury in vain".

Not only did His Majesty Li Er often use the treasury money and money for personal purposes, he also issued an edict: "I will order the crown prince to use the treasury and not to restrict the company."

Of course, this situation of confusing the national treasury with the palace treasury and spending my son's flowers has caused His Majesty Li Er to be criticized a lot, and he has to restrain himself in the future.

Because, using the money from the treasury to provide one's own pleasure can be considered a fool!

Since the Qin and Han dynasties, the separation between royal finance and national finance has basically become customized. His Majesty Li Er did not know about this, but pretended to be confused with his understanding.

There is no way, the royal government does not have a completely independent income, and it mainly relies on the transfer of the treasury. The specific expenses are counted according to the rank of the rank, and will be sent to the Secretariat for approval in the Spring and Autumn Period, and the treasury department will pay according to the quantity.

If this charter is strictly implemented, His Majesty Li Er feels that the money is not enough to spend!

Therefore, His Majesty Li Er knew the disadvantages on the one hand, but on the other hand, he could not control his expenses. He did not think about extending the activities of the inner government from the inside of the palace. But who will manage, what to do, whether to make a profit or lose, and whether he will be labeled as "competing for profit with the people" are all problems that need to be solved.

Gigi, Xiao Yizi smiled and ran to Xu Qilin and showed him his new discovery. Even if he turned the little book upside down, it was also very interesting.

Seeing that his beloved daughter and Xu Qilin were very close, His Majesty Li Er smiled slightly and had a decision in his mind.

Xu Qilin's wonderful ideas are certainly admirable, but they will inevitably encounter a lot of resistance in the court. It's very simple. Those ministers have a more traditional thinking. The treasury can generate income, but it involves doing business. So, what's the joke?

The inner government needs much freedom and relaxation, as long as it does not rely on its power to bully it, as long as it does not "compete with the people for profit", as long as it is not so obvious and deep in business, the ministers really don't care much.

Of course, His Majesty Li Er was still a little worried and wanted to remind him to see if Xu Qilin was competent. If he was messing around, he would make money, but his reputation would be bad.

"Qi Lin," His Majesty Li Er raised his voice, and saw Xu Qilin raise his head and listen carefully, and then said slowly: "You are still young, and even if you have the ability to manage finances, it is not appropriate to stand in the court. But if there is no mission, I am worried that you will be hang out with the dandy in the capital..."

Xu Qilin blinked and understood that he wanted to hire himself as the financial consultant of the Royal Inner Mansion. Just say it, he was just around the bush, as if he was doing it for himself.

The Royal Inner Mansion, also known as the Shaofu, is now led by the Shaofu eunuch. The inner court is in charge of the budget. The inner court is in charge of the name and the inner court.

In terms of income, it relies on the treasury to pay, and there is no independent income. In terms of expenditure, it is mainly for the expenses of the harem; there are also some court meetings, and the rewards and temporary expenses that the foreign chief resigned.

"Your Majesty, the people in charge of this young mansion seem to be eunuchs!" Xu Qilin became more and more scared as he heard it. This is a fucking thing, and he is going to cut it out without any use. I will never do it, I will beat you to death.

His Majesty Li Er waved his hand and said, "I haven't finished speaking yet, don't be anxious."

How can I not be in a hurry? Tell me quickly, I was so scared that I almost sat on the ground.
Chapter completed!
