Zhang Jingyi rang the railway while the hot: "Scholars, farmers, industry and commerce are the four dimensions of the country. All of them are important. As the witnesses of the poor ministers, the most urgent thing at the moment is that the country has cultivated a group of truly qualified craftsmen. These craftsmen not only need skillful skills but also spiritual, so that they can assume great responsibilities."

Emperor Tianqi couldn't help but say: "Isn't the fourth dimension of the country etiquette, righteousness, integrity and shame?"

Zhang Jingyi said seriously: "In the Donglin Military Academy, the fourth dimension of the country is scholars, farmers, industry and commerce, which is different from those fake Donglin."

"Oh." Emperor Apocalypse accepted this explanation and then said: "How to cultivate it?"

Emperor Aoki himself is a carpenter, so of course he doesn't mind.

Zhang Jingyi said: "Let the military academy set up a civil engineering teaching team, which is specifically responsible for the teaching of craftsmen. Now there are many people who want to enter the military academy. We can recruit students to come in and give them the same treatment as other teaching teams, recognize their students' identities. The most important thing is that some subsidies should be given to admission, such as tuition reduction or scholarships so that they can study with peace of mind, but... where does the money for running schools and rewards come from?"

Emperor Tianqi subconsciously said, "Yes, where did you come from?"

Zhang Jingyi said, "Your Majesty has always had a strong interest in engineering. Why not let Your Majesty... occasionally go to class and teach them the essence of engineering. How about it?"

Emperor Tianqi was quite interested and hesitated, "I am afraid that I will not speak well."

Zhang Jingyi said confidently: "Don't worry, your majesty, the students are grateful to Your Majesty. As long as your Majesty is willing to speak, everyone will be welcome."

Emperor Tianqi smiled: "Why are they so grateful to me? Oh, I understand, you want me to pay this money."

Zhang Jingyi smiled embarrassedly and said, "This is to cultivate talents for the country. The Zhang family can actually go out, but the burden on the previous few teaching teams was already very heavy, and... Now your Majesty has money. Besides, these people will be your Majesty's pillars in the future. Your Majesty will give you some."

Emperor Tianqi carried his hands behind his back, looked at the baskets of silver coming up, and immediately said proudly: "This is easy to say, how much is the silver a year?"

Zhang Jing smiled and said, "Actually not much, it's just a hundred thousand taels a year."

"Not much?" Emperor Tianqi couldn't help but say, "Do you think I'm very rich?"

Zhang Jing's eyes fell on the silver and said with a point of view: "Your Majesty is already rich."

This answer directly made Emperor Tianqi unable to refute for the moment.

But he immediately became happy.

I happily watched a lot of silver pulling up from the side. After watching for a few hours, I still found it very interesting.

However, while Wei Zhongxian was not around, Zhang Jingyi carefully arrived in front of Emperor Tianqi and whispered: "Your Majesty, Tian Shenglan told me that it was their eight families who bribed many imperial officials. Not only in Liaodong, but also in the court, many people have accepted their benefits. Your Majesty has to be careful these days."

All of this was expected by Emperor Apocalypse, so his face did not change much, and he said, "All my ministers are extremely greedy and being bribed is nothing."

Zhang Jingyi immediately said: "They said that they might have reached the cabinet."

"Cabinet?" Emperor Tianqi was really shocked: "What do you mean, there may be chaos in this cabinet?"

"It may not be a rebellion, but isn't this what happens in this world? At the beginning, I just greedy for other people's wealth, my appetite gradually grew bigger and bigger, and I gave more and more people, so I had to do these stupid things to protect these people. When these people were taken, I suddenly became panicked, fearing that I would be exposed, so I was unable to get rid of the tiger. In order to escape punishment, I could inevitably do something even more terrible. So I was worried that... it was too terrible to involve the Grand Secretary of the Cabinet."

A Cabinet Grand Secretary is not just a simple official position.

What makes him scary is that when he reaches this level and can enter the cabinet and participate in military aircraft, there are often a large number of people who can climb on him.

For example, Huang Liji almost represents the interests of the northern Jinshi and gentry.

For example, Sun Chengzong, not only had a certain appeal in the clear stream, but also a considerable number of civil officials in Liaodong regarded him as their backer. For example, Yuan Chonghuan, to some extent, was considered half of Sun Chengzong's student.

As for the other cabinet ministers, they naturally had their own disciples and former officials, all over the court and the country.

What's more, when they participate in military aircraft on weekdays, they need to read almost all the military secrets.

If these people reveal some information at will, this value... for merchants, it is definitely worth a thousand gold.

Emperor Tianqi couldn't help but frown and said, "If this is the case... then you should not underestimate it. Who is this person?"

"It's just that who it is not found yet." Zhang Jing said worriedly: "The real leader of these eight major merchants is the Fan family. Among the eight families, the Tian family is not large in scale. The reason why the Fan family can grow is because he has a close contact with many people in the capital. So I think... After the Tian family starts to explain, I am afraid that more people are now worried and can't sleep well. I am worried that they want to take risks and fight to the death."

Emperor Tianqi nodded: "In this way, I have to explain to Mr. Wei."

"Brother Wei is of course loyal to His Majesty, but... some eunuchs in the palace may not be able to trust them." Zhang Jing took a deep breath and said, "So, Your Majesty should be cautious. Otherwise..."

Emperor Tianqi nodded, took a breath, and then gritted his teeth and said, "Didn't I give enough of these people? They are already happy enough on weekdays. Why are they still greedy to get involved with a group of merchants today!"

Zhang Jingyi said, "Your Majesty, people's hearts are unsatisfied. Of course, if they knew that they had received some benefits, they would have caused today's chaos. They might not have dared to accept these generous gifts at the beginning, but now... it's too late to regret it."

Emperor Tianqi said in a depressed voice: "Where is the reason in the world to guard against thieves for thousands of days? It is the most difficult to guard against thieves at home. What do you think?"

Zhang Jingyi said: "After all, I am not a eunuch, so it seems that Brother Wei has to deal with this matter. But His Majesty must warn him and treat it with caution."

Emperor Apocalypse nodded.

Regarding Wei Zhongxian, Zhang Jingyi was complicated and Wei Zhongxian had a good ability to do things. If you say that he had selfish intentions, there must be some!

But from a standpoint, he was almost the same as Emperor Aoki, but the only thing he recruited was that the people he was good and bad were of different quality, and there were people who could do things, but there were also a bunch of waste.

Therefore, if you ask him to be a papermaker in the late years of the dynasty, he can even move the east wall and repair the west wall. However, if you say that you can change the general trend of the world's danger, it is obviously still far from it.

At this time, Emperor Tianqi patted Zhang Jingyi on the shoulder and sighed, "Since the previous year, I felt more and more... powerless. The reason is that there are too many people around me with ulterior motives. I was thinking for a while, maybe when I would be murdered, maybe I would not live for two years. Now... I think about it carefully, it is really terrifying."

Zhang Jing smiled and said without comment, just saying, "Your Majesty is auspicious person. Even if there is any danger, he will definitely be able to escape danger."

Emperor Aoki nodded.

Daruo Temple is still moving money to the sky and earth.

Many people in this capital also heard the news, saying that it was against Shangtian's family that they had confessed.

For a moment, the city was filled with wind and rain.

However, all the officials in the court still perform their duties.

Some people also privately discuss how much money can be found this time.

Emperor Aoki spent every day in anxiety.

On the one hand, he was thinking about money, but on the other hand, he was thinking about Zhang Jingyi's warning.

After pondering, he summoned Wei Zhongxian and told Wei Zhongxian about the matter. Wei Zhongxian said: "Your Majesty, these eight rebel merchants have definitely committed a lot of troubles over the years, and I don't know how many people colluded with them. The factory guards must do their best, and there are also Beijing camps... Warrior camps, and the servants are also watching. Now, there are people from the teaching team guarding the Daming Gate. The Warrior camp and other reliable guards also surrounded the palace guards. Even if the rebels want to make trouble, they will not be able to do anything with some troops."

"I am worried that the disaster will cause Xiao Jiang. Something happened in this palace. Therefore, we must strictly prevent fire and poisoning in the palace ban. Your Majesty should be farther away from Tai Ye Pond. It is a troublesome now, so we should add some protection around us."

Emperor Aoki nodded and said, "You also imagine that someone wants to murder me?"

Wei Zhongxian said with a serious expression: "The heart of being on guard against others must be avoided."

Emperor Apocalypse nodded.

But at this moment, an eunuch ran away, but the person came was Zhang Shun. Zhang Shun said in surprise: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the Marquis of Xinxian, is here to report the good news."

Emperor Tianqi glanced at Zhang Shun: "Aren't you the eunuch of Shangshenjian? Why are you here to spread the news?"

Zhang Shunxin thought, would I say that Zhang Jingyi is my godfather? So when I got good news, when I came to report the good news, my godfather deliberately found a way to notify us and let us report it?

Zhang Shundao: "I happened to meet the Marquis of Xinxian, so I reported the news to him."

Emperor Tianqi couldn't help but look at Zhang Shun more, and his impression of Zhang Shun was deeper, so he cheered up: "Call him in."

After a moment, Zhang Jing smiled and said, "Congratulations to Your Majesty..."

Emperor Tianqi said: "Stop talking and report the number."

Zhang Jingyi smiled and said, "Now it's just a rough estimate. This time... the gold and silver that were collected are worth at least 16.7 million taels of silver. Your Majesty... the gold and silver of this family are worth the annual income of the national treasury for countless years."
