Chapter 1153 House of Internal Affairs

When the Western countries were in the middle of a struggle, Gao Shaoyi announced the establishment of the Imperial Economic Supervisory Council, with Prince Kang serving as the first president. At the same time, more than 70 officials were transferred from major yamen across the country to join, and their address was at the original residence.

Now the Hubu Yamen and the Hubu Yamen have ceased operations, which can free up a lot of land.

Regarding the issue of this name, Gao Shaoyi originally thought it was an economic management office, but Prince Kang did not think so. If such a dignified prince had only one economic management office, it would be a bit unworthy of his name.

, so Prince Kang proposed the Imperial Economic Inspectorate, which did sound a bit lofty. Anyway, there was no other economic institution with the same name. Gao Shaoyi went to the palace and asked the emperor to give this name.

The emperor is now like a mascot. Many of his officials are nowhere to be found. You can't even pay them their salaries. How can you still ask these people to continue working for you? Although Gao Shaoyi didn't say it explicitly, the emperor is smart.

Man, as long as you don’t cause trouble for me and stay in the palace honestly, then your family’s life will not be a problem. Regarding the safety of the palace, the anti-rogue army will also take over, and the supply will be the same as before.

Standards will never fail you.

Of course, regarding the supply issue, Gao Shaoyi arrested 72 people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs. There were more than 100 people in charge of the entire Ministry of Internal Affairs. Most of them had plenty to eat, so Gao Shaoyi would never let him go.

They also searched the homes of these people. Regardless of whether you are relatives of the emperor or what your background is, the various supplies in the palace are no longer under your control, but the money you used to see must be spent.

come out.

According to the agreement between Gao Shaoyi and the royal family, Gao Shaoyi provides three million silver coins every year. The emperor will stay honest and will not cause trouble to Gao Shaoyi everywhere. Gao Shaoyi will never pay this money himself, so he can only use these from the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

Everyone was searched, and a total of 29 million silver coins were found from their possessions. One can only imagine how these people lived in the past.

There was a joke in the Ministry of Internal Affairs that ten silver coins were enough to buy an egg.

Many ordinary people know this joke. Ten silver coins can buy a lot of eggs, but the emperor must pay ten silver coins to eat one egg. Anyway, this is how people pay for it. Several emperors knew that the price was wrong, but they also

I didn’t even mention it, because most of the people in the Ministry of Internal Affairs serve the emperor, and a small number of people serve the royal family members. If they are not given a chance to make money, they will not live a good life. How could they do it?

Serve the emperor well?

So even if he knew that they were corrupt and perverting the law, the emperor would not say anything more, which would further encourage their greed. In future work, if you spend one silver coin, you will be repaid ten silver coins, and if you spend ten silver coins, you will be repaid.

I'll give you two hundred silver coins. The emperor won't be harsh on them anyway. As long as it can make the emperor's life better, what's the point of spending a little money? In such a big empire, it can be settled casually.

If you spread it out, the money will come out soon.

The annual harvest of the Ministry of Internal Affairs is 27 million silver coins, but the expenditure is as high as more than 30 million silver coins. It is in a state of loss every year. Whenever the Ministry of Internal Affairs suffers a loss, the emperor will allocate funds from the Ministry of Household Affairs, and even

Foreign banks borrow money, and with such a good emperor, if the Ministry of Internal Affairs does not lose money, they will feel a little sorry for the emperor.

But things will be different when Gao Shaoyi takes over. The emperor was willing to spend money to support you. That was all in the past. Now I am in charge, so it is different from before. You can only follow the new rules.

In addition to the more than seventy people who were inspected, the remaining people are also retained for observation. If nothing happens, you can continue to work in your original positions, but if you still reach out, we can

That is to say, several crimes are punished at the same time.

"They are all big fat sheep. I passed by the home of a small official in the inner government. The house was being searched. Guess what? Boxes after boxes of gold were pulled out. If I didn't go out and look at the plaque on the door,

I thought which royal palace this was, but no, even if it were some royal palace, I'm afraid it wouldn't have this kind of wealth."

In the front hall of the palace, Wang Laosan is sitting and drinking tea. Gao Shaoyi is also listening. Today, homes are being searched all over the capital. As long as you have some relationship with the Ministry of Internal Affairs, someone will immediately come to investigate your assets. If

If the explanation is unclear, we can only arrest you first and seal your property temporarily until you can explain clearly.

"This is a typical case of petty officials being extremely corrupt. In the past, they were always said to be well-paid, but we didn't have the impression that at most, they would only get a few thousand gold coins a year. But now it seems that is far from the case.

Six boxes of gold can be found in even a small official's home. How capable are those high-level officials? There are a total of five general managers in the Ministry of Internal Affairs. How much money do these five general managers have in their homes? That's really a secret."

Liu Shan also knew some of these things. He had a relative who worked in the Ministry of Internal Affairs earlier. Not to mention how glorious his family's house was. Whenever he gave lucky money during the Chinese New Year, it was given directly to dozens of silver coins.

If you want to know the year of an eighth-grade official, he will give it directly.

"I don't know about other managers. The Qi family of the Ministry of Internal Affairs is no joke. There is a noble concubine in the palace, and the land around the capital alone is as much as 100,000 acres. It is said that

There is even more land in their hometown, but we will know the result of the house raid later. Originally, I thought that 30 million silver coins would be able to stop it, but now it seems that is far from the case. Guangping Internal Affairs Office

With these six words, Qijiamen, we can have one more meal."

Wang Laosan is very familiar with the big nobles in the capital. The Qi family is different from other families. Their family has been running the internal government for generations. They are considered old households in the internal affairs office. They have occupied the power of the internal affairs office for three hundred years.

For a long time, if their family had no money, that would be a damn thing, and their family's money was not even a fraction. Gao Shaoyi specially sent a reinforcement battalion to wipe out all their houses in the capital and hometown, including their deposits in foreign banks.

They have to get it out for them.
