Sir." Wu Changshi suddenly called Chongtianqu.

"There is no money in the vassal treasury? Didn't I get an allocation of 300,000 taels of silver from the Ministry of Household Affairs last winter? It's just spring, and it's all gone so quickly?"

"Sir Governor, the 300,000 taels you gave is indeed the money. But the Ministry of Revenue only allocated 100,000 taels and said that the remaining 200,000 taels are owed. Even the lower officials dare not go to the capital to ask for this.

It can only be delayed like this.

One hundred thousand taels of silver, money is needed everywhere. Years ago, Kong Youde and Geng Zhongming wanted to suppress bandits and took away more than 30,000 taels of military pay. Governor Ao took a gun and forced the subordinate to give out 10,000 taels of silver.

Two to celebrate the New Year for his soldiers. Now half of it is gone, plus the fixed expenses. Now the rats in the treasury can starve to death, where can you ask me to get the money?"

"The vassal treasury has not deposited any silver in the past years?"

"Sir, all the money in the vassal treasury was taken to the capital by Chen Hailong to honor Wei Zhongxian, and many of the remaining money were used to build shrines. During the chaos in Jinan last year, some of the money in the vassal treasury was robbed by thieves.

I have less than a thousand taels of silver in savings! Last year there was chaos in Shandong and bandits were rampant, and taxes could not be collected much...!

Governor Ao gave Xiaguan a note, saying that he would pay more than 20,000 taels of military pay for this month. Xianguan still has to come to the governor to solve the problem, let alone give money to the scholar to build the examination room." Wu Changshi said helplessly.

In the end, I just kept saying the same thing back and forth, no money!

Damn it! Li Xiao was itching with hatred that this bastard Qian Qianyi dared to swallow the money given to me by the court. He is really tired of living!
