Chapter 814 Money

Sell ​​prisoners of war?

At this moment, in the Qinzheng Hall in the capital, Zhu Cilang was watching Fang Jiuling’s memorial, which had just been delivered.

If we calculate the day, it should have been issued more than ten days ago. Fang Jiuling had not fought with the Yarkand Khanate at that time, so he had already expected such a thing, so he sent the memorial in advance, and this guy was really forward-looking.

In the Ming Dynasty, things happened frequently, which was very normal. They were also protected by the Ming Dynasty. However, things like buying and selling prisoners of war have not happened yet, so Fang Jiuling was also playing the edge.

"What do Shigemen think?"

This matter is related to the Ministry of War, so Shi Kefa has seen it just now.

"When I say to the emperor, I think this is OK. The emperor has said before that Lord Fang only has two million silver. If there is only two million silver in such a huge Western Region, it would be a little less. If you want the horse to run away, you have to feed the horse."

Shi Kefa clearly expressed his view that it turned out that such things happened from time to time. Although the court did not explicitly stipulate, those who win the battle would offer prisoners to the capital, and there would be a ceremony of offering money. However, the Western Regions were too far away from here, so such things did not happen.

"Will there be sales like this? After all, they are all prisoners of war. If they are not well-supervised, it is very likely that they will cause great chaos in the mainland, and it will be more than worth the effort at that time."

Hou Fangyu was also invited, but he and Shi Kefa had two attitudes. He also thought it was a good thing to sell these prisoners to send military expenses to the northwest, but the question is whether these people are easy to manage?

Zhu Cilang also nodded. This is indeed a problem. These people are different from ordinary people in society. These people have fought on the battlefield, so they must have a bad temper.

In the prisoner-of-war camp, they are like kittens, but if they are scattered in the homes of ordinary people, especially the homes of landlords and Lao Cai, far away from the city, there are probably some things that are difficult to control.

Although many landlords have people guarding the houses and protecting the houses, it is okay for those people to scare ordinary people. Faced with these rebellious northwest men, some of their abilities may not be able to be used.

If there is a little slack in the supervision, these people may take advantage of the loopholes. After they escape, they will become a cancer in society. Not only will they not promote social production, but they will bring great pressure to the local people's livelihood.

"Mr. Zhang has something to say?"

Zhang Shenyan was beside him and wanted to speak but stopped. To be honest, Zhang Shenyan was the moral teacher of the court. He shouldn't have interrupted such a thing, but he also had very difficult things under him.

If these prisoners could be brought over, it would definitely solve his urgent problem. So after thinking about it, he still wanted to say a few words, but he didn't know where to start.

After all, he was still wearing the hat of a moral gentleman. If he had openly agreed to selling prisoners, where would he put his face? Now he is gradually drifting away from the civil service group of the court.

"If you go back to the emperor, I have a way to try it, but I have a reluctant request..."

Seeing Zhang Shenyan talking hesitantly, Zhu Cilang immediately slapped the table and asked this guy to say it out quickly. Under Zhu Cilang's influence, most people do things very well, and there is no such a young daughter.

"Your Majesty, Lord Fang's idea is absolutely OK, but it should be changed during the implementation process. These people came from the battlefield and posed some threats to the people of our country, so they had to eliminate their arrogance and then they could be exiled to the people..."

Zhang Shenyan began his grand speech. At the beginning, Zhu Cilang also listened patiently, and his eyes lit up after a while. This old guy was indeed not an ordinary person.

It turned out that he was a Taoist master and didn't want to think about these miscellaneous things, but if scholars were willing to participate in these things, they would definitely do better than others. Take what they see now, this guy is really good at doing things.

According to Zhang Shenyan's idea, aren't these people extremely fierce? Isn't they threatening the people?

So don’t put them in the homes of ordinary people for the time being. Local governments in various places are building roads and there are some other official projects. They can be handed over to local governments to supervise this group of people. Of course, the money they should pay has to be paid.

What was Zhang Shenyan's unhappy invitation? That was his promotion school work. This guy had calculated the calculations. If he asked someone to do things nationwide, the money would be about three million taels of silver.

If you use the money to buy these prisoners now, it will be like having a long-term labor force. As long as you give them a bite of food, will we have the final say in the rest? If you spend more than three million yuan in silver to do this, you will definitely see a school that will be multiple times higher.

Shi Kefa and Hou Fangyu were both sucking a breath. It turned out that if someone settled the score in the court, Zhang Shenyan would want to go over and squeeze others' faces.

But now this old guy has completely changed. He ran to the emperor to settle the score himself, and he will never say that it is the so-called stinky smell.

"What are you two looking at? Do you know what keeping pace with the times? Lord Zhang is the person who changed the most in the court. The original Lord Zhang would definitely not think of this, but for the development of the court and the eternal foundation of the Ming Dynasty, Lord Zhang's move is absolutely feasible."

If you do the right thing, you have to praise it. At this moment, Zhang Shenyan's face turned red. If it weren't for the promotion school, he wouldn't have said this. Although the court did not short his money, he also knew that the court's financial difficulties were in short supply during this period.

The three million silver has been put into his hands and will be used up soon.

But if there were such a group of prisoners, they would only need to purchase materials in the future and manually leave them out of these people. They could save a lot of money inside and outside, and at least they could build two more schools in two provinces.

"Mr. Zhang is so envious, I admire him..."

Hearing the words of Shi Kefa and Hou Fangyu, Zhang Shenyan waved his hand modestly...

His face is almost the same as a monkey's butt.
