It doesn't matter if it's just borrowing money.
As the emperor of the dynasty, money is just a number to Xuan Ming.
And Xuan Ming's statement made Xuan Xue feel relieved.
It seemed that her disguise was quite effective.
"How much do you want?" Xuan Ming asked.
Xuanxue stretched out her right index finger and made a gesture.
"One million taels, that's fine. I'll ask the Minister of the Household Department to send it to you later." Xuan Ming nodded slightly.
One million taels is not much.
"It's not 100 million, it's actually... 100 billion!" Xuanxue didn't expect Xuan Ming to think about 100 million, and after a moment of surprise, she corrected herself in a low voice.
100 million, even the ice team under her command is not enough to develop a county.
"what?"
"What do you want so much money for?"
"No!" Xuan Ming frowned subconsciously.
100 billion, this is not a small number.
It is more than enough to develop several small-scale armies.
Once this kind of amount is borrowed, although the national treasury will not be hurt, it will definitely not be easy.
Xuan Ming directly refused!
Chapter 56 Demon Lord Lin Ning: I don't have any money anymore, I'm here to ask my cousin to borrow some
"It seems that there are still more."
Hearing Xuan Ming's tone was slightly condensed, Xuan Xue thought secretly.
Although she has never touched the treasury accounts, the entire Shenxuan Dynasty has a huge territory and a population of trillions. The tax revenue alone of hundreds of counties is estimated to be less than tens of billions.
Although the dynasty has many expenditures up and down to offset this part of the income, the dynasty has existed for thousands of years, so there must be a surplus every year. She has calculated in her heart that tens of billions is not too much.
But now, judging by Xuan Ming's attitude, there is a high probability that he will not be able to borrow it.
"Haha, don't be nervous, Your Majesty, the imperial sister was just joking, how could she really borrow so much money..." Xuan Xue pinched Xuan Ming's sleeve with her tender white hands, and shook it slightly.
"Actually, the imperial sister wants to borrow [-] million..." Xuanxue said coquettishly in a low voice.
"It turned out to be one hundred million. You really surprised me just now." Xuan Ming secretly wiped the cold sweat off his head.
Ten billion, he almost suspected that Xuanxue wanted to secretly form an army just now!
"But it's still too much. I can only lend you a hundred thousand at most." Xuan Ming shook his head slightly.
It's not that he doesn't want to borrow the money that he has at his disposal now.
Only 10 taels.
There is indeed a lot of money in the treasury.
But that's the entire dynasty's money.
Military expenses, monthly salaries of officials at all levels, construction of rivers, disaster relief, etc., each item of expenditure is in the unit of [-] million.
In addition, recently he wants to build martial arts academies at all levels.
And the intelligence organization, the idea of an ever-victorious army.
The money needed is even more enormous.
To borrow at this time, it can only be said that Xuanxue came at the wrong time.
However, Xuanxue is his younger sister after all, and it feels inappropriate not to lend her Xuanming.
"Ah... [-]!" Xuanxue opened her small mouth slightly, with a dumbfounded expression.
Her big bright eyes were fixed on Xuan Ming's mouth.
She really couldn't figure out how a mouth of more than 30 degrees could say such a cold number...
And it was 100 million before... Now it suddenly becomes [-]!
"Do you want it?" Xuan Ming asked.
His eyes fell on Xuanxue's astonished expression, feeling a little curious.
You know, as the heir of the royal family, Xuanxue should not be short of money.
After all, whether it is resources or skills, the royal family has a treasure house independent of the dynasty. If you want to withdraw it at any time, just make sure it is used by the royal family.
So even if Xuanxue has practiced to the semi-sage now, she doesn't need money to go out and buy some cultivation resources by herself. The treasure house can fully afford it, and it is more comprehensive than the outside world.
Also, the servants and guards in Xuanxue's mansion belong to the standard distribution of the royal family's heirs, and they are distributed to these people according to the regulations every month, and Xuanxue does not need to pay extra.
In addition, some daily necessities in Xuanxue's mansion, such as chicken, duck, fish, delicacies from mountains and seas, etc., will be subsidized by the royal family every month.
Therefore, in fact, it is impossible for Xuanxue to need so much money.
Not to mention 10 million, even [-] taels, which is enough to eat, drink and have fun in the imperial capital.
Even if you buy some luxury goods, you will at most overspend.
Obviously, Xuan Xue's strange behavior caught Xuan Ming's attention.
"just forget it."
"The princess is fine."
Xuanxue pursed her mouth and shook her head slightly.
10 taels, it's not embarrassing enough to borrow it back.
You know, she just told her team leader of the ice team to wait for her to go to the emperor to borrow money. If she knows that she only borrowed one hundred thousand back... tsk tsk.
The middle-aged woman is not good on the surface, but she may laugh at her behind the scenes, which will lose her prestige.
Just as Xuanxue shook her head.
On the other side, Demon Lord Lin Ning quietly found the household official who had informed the Lin family before, and asked him to inform that Lin Ning wanted to see His Majesty today.
The household official wanted to refuse, but when he thought that Lin Ning in front of him was the cousin of the emperor's natal family, if the cousin was favored at that time in the future and sued him for not helping today, wouldn't he be upset?
So he couldn't make up his mind, so he informed Lin Fangyuan, Minister of the Household Department, about this matter.
"Ah this..."
Li Yuanfang frowned. Logically speaking, a commoner woman is not qualified to meet the emperor, but the relationship between the identity of the commoner woman and the emperor is too complicated.
You must know that the emperor has ordered someone to take the Lin family to the imperial capital, although the emperor has not visited the Lin family during this time, so Li Yuanfang couldn't figure out what the emperor meant.
But he also has the same thoughts as that official of the Ministry of Household Affairs, who is not sure about everything.
In case this Lin Ning......
"Let's go and report to His Majesty, and I will take this opportunity to find out what His Majesty has said, and see if His Majesty likes or dislikes the Lin family." Li Yuanfang thought secretly.
"If you really want to use money, according to the rules set by the previous emperors, the royal heirs can draw an additional 1000 million taels of silver every year, but the money is borne by the royal treasury."
"And this additional withdrawal does not belong to the annual distribution of the royal heirs. Once borrowed, it must be replaced next year, and there will be an additional [-]% interest."
Xuanxue pouted, looking like she was about to cry, which made Xuanming a little bit unbearable.
"The imperial sister is gone, Your Majesty should keep the money."
Xuanxue pretended to wipe away her tears and left.
Since she can't borrow money, she doesn't need to stay here any longer.
"This..." Xuan Ming stretched out his hand, and finally frowned slightly.
"Is there really something unspeakable to hide?"
"Sword Master." Xuan Ming called in a low voice while looking at Xuan Xue's leaving back.
Soon, the figure of the Sword Saint appeared beside Xuan Ming.
"During this time, observe my sister more during the day, and if there is any problem, report it to me in time." Xuan Ming ordered.
Xuanxue looked like she really needed money.
But when Xuan Ming asked her, she faltered and said nothing, which made Xuan Ming very suspicious.
Secretly suspecting that he was threatened by someone.
But after thinking about it, I felt something was wrong.
Xuanxue is a semi-saint herself, and the residence of the Seventh Princess is in the hinterland of the imperial capital, and who in the world would dare to threaten the heirs of the royal family, but there is no certainty, so he decided to let the sword master take a look.
If there is anything in common sense, there is a place to use money.
It doesn't matter if Xuan Ming borrows it.
"Yes, Your Majesty." The Juggernaut nodded.
"Ugh."
After the sword master left, Xuan Ming shook his head slightly and sighed softly.
The next moment, his figure turned into a little bit of starlight, and when he reappeared, he had already returned to Xuanhuang Palace.
"Your Majesty, the Minister of the Household Department seeks an audience."
After sitting for a while, the guards in front of the hall respectfully came in to report.
"Oh? Let him in." Xuanming was still thinking about Xuanxue, but when Minister Hubu came, it reminded him of the progress of the construction of the Martial Arts Academy, so he said.
The guards in front of the hall retreated, and soon Lin Fangyuan walked into the hall.
"Your Majesty, I came here today to inform you that Your Majesty had arranged for the Lin family in the prince's mansion. There was a girl who claimed to be His Majesty's cousin who found me and wanted to see His Majesty." Lin Fangyuan bowed and saluted, and said One sentence made the expression on Xuan Ming's face freeze slightly.
A biological sister just left, and another cousin came?
This!
Chapter 57 If there is a chance, Xuanxue can get to know Lin Ning. Could it be that she stabbed her sister's lair today?
A hint of surprise quickly appeared on Xuan Ming's face.
"Lin......"
Xuan Ming murmured slightly, staring secretly.
Since he sent someone to place the Lin family in the mansion where he lived before, he has never visited him during this period of time.
I don't know how the Lin family is doing now.
"Although I have never been in contact with the Lin family since I was a child, it is my birth mother's family. It is a royal rule that I have not met each other. Now that I am the emperor of the dynasty, this rule can be broken at any time." Xuan Ming thought in his heart.
He looked at Lin Fangyuan, Minister of the Household Department of His Highness.
"Let her come over." He waved his hand and signaled.
"Yes, Your Majesty." Lin Fangyuan moved his eyes slightly, and took his leave respectfully.
"It seems that His Majesty still has thoughts about the Lin family."
"So, this Shangshu wants to negotiate more with the Lin family."
Lin Fangyuan thought in his heart.
Although he is the Minister of the Household Department of the Imperial Dynasty, he is one of the three princes.
But he knew in his heart that when the new emperor succeeded to the throne, many of the rules could not be the same as those of the previous emperor. If he could not please the new emperor, even if he had a high position and great influence, and was knocked down from the altar, it was just a word from the emperor. That's all.
In this world, there are too many people who want power. I don't know how many people are staring at his position, and I don't know how many people want to replace him.
If you are not careful, it will capsize like a sailboat, and everything will be lost.
Therefore, Lin Fangyuan will not give up any chance to please His Majesty.
............
Xuanxue walked out of the palace with a dignified expression.
