The Village Doctress Chapter 526: Countermeasures to solve the empty treasury

Madam Gui collapsed on the ground.

The old lady of Yongding Hou despised her unpromising appearance, frowned contemptuously, and walked away holding the hand of the old nanny next to her.

And Guitong is still thinking about the heartless words that the old grandmother said to her before she left.

The old grandmother's sharp and ruthless eyes made her heart still beating wildly.

The old lady said that she is so stupid that she still has the face to stay in Gui's house. Raising a pig is more useful than her. If Princess Shuichang asks her to go to the nunnery to practice, it will be cheaper for her...

The old lady also said that the family would not fight Princess Ruoshui because of such a stupid her, and asked her to pack up and go to the nunnery to practice tomorrow!

Gui Tong didn't know what was wrong with him, everything was fine, why was he sent to a nunnery to practice?

Also, how could grandma treat her like that?

And grandfather, why did he agree to send her to a nunnery to practice without even going to talk to Princess Ruoshui?

Madam Gui came into Gui Tong's room crying, and Gui Tong started beating and beating as if seeing a savior.

But she only dared to do this in front of her own mother, Mrs. Gui couldn't save her at all.

No matter how unwilling and regretful she is now, she will inevitably end up going to the nunnery to accompany the ancient Buddha with the green lamp.

After Madam Tang returned to the eldest princess's mansion, she reported what happened in Yongdinghou's mansion to Princess Ruoshui.

Princess Ruoshui curled her lips and sneered, "The old madam, she always says one thing and one thing in the heart, I bet she won't be so reconciled, forgive her, and she won't be able to make any big waves, just let her go." Let's go."

Nurse Tang thought the same way, so she smiled.

After drinking the well water with alum stone added for a few days, Princess Ruoshui became healthier day by day.

Sister Nan, Mother Tang, and Eunuch Huang who knew about it all came to Lin Fufu to discuss whether it is better to add more alum stones to the well water.

Because they all thought that maybe this alum stone was the antidote to the chronic poison that Princess Ruoshui suffered from.

But this idea was rejected by Lin Fufu.

It's good to be able to delay the poison now, if this alum stone is not the antidote, and eating too much will cause bad things, then it's too late to regret it.

As soon as Lin Fufu explained it, Nanny Nan and others also felt scared. Fortunately, they came to ask the princess, otherwise it would be too late to regret if they messed up things.

The healthy Princess Ruoshui went to court normally, and His Majesty the Emperor was very happy to see that her body had recovered, and rewarded many precious medicinal materials to the Princess's mansion.

Before when Princess Ruoshui was in poor health, the precious medicinal materials in the palace were sent to the Princess' mansion like water. Princess Ruoshui was very sad when she saw that the medicinal materials in the treasury were almost full.

When Lin Fufu saw her worrying, he came up with an idea, "Auntie, I have a lot of raw medicine shops. If it doesn't violate the regulations, I will sell some valuable medicinal materials in my shop. If I get money, I can subsidize the national treasury. His Majesty has relieved his worries."

Princess Ruoshui's eyes lit up when she heard the words, she nodded immediately, "Okay, that's a good idea! That's it!"

After thinking for a while, he said again: "The national treasury is getting more and more empty, girl, you have to help me find a way, I really don't have many good ideas for the economy."

After reviewing the memorials in the past few days, Lin Fufu had already understood the seriousness of the emptiness of the national treasury. She originally planned to wait for Princess Ruoshui to get better and remind her to solve this problem as soon as possible.

But Princess Ruoshui had asked Qiu Daqin to start investigating corruption, because the time is still short, and there is no effect yet.

But soon it will be the day to pay the salary again, so Princess Ruoshui is really anxious.

"Auntie, I have thought of a few ways before. But it will not be a matter of one day to completely solve the problem of the empty treasury. Fortunately, there are not many wars outside now. If the Great Wei is safe again Years, but it can be reversed." Lin Fufu said while helping Princess Ruoshui to press her shoulders.

Princess Ruoshui nodded again and again, "Of course I know this. You see, after more than ten years of hard work, the treasury is still empty and I am about to be unable to pay my salary." The way, tell me quickly."

As for Lin Fufu's persistent refusal to call her mother, although Princess Ruoshui felt lonely, she still didn't show it.

She believed that Lin Fufu was a child who valued affection and righteousness, and sooner or later, her mother would cry out.

The more Princess Ruoshui looked at Lin Fufu, the happier she felt.

Lin Fufu smiled, and then said: "Everyone talks about increasing income and reducing expenditure, Auntie, I also went to the palace to pay attention these days. Although the food and clothing in the palace are not considered luxurious, I think it can be more frugal Some. It can be more luxurious when there are vassal states or envoys from other countries. "

Princess Ruoshuichang nodded, "I think it makes sense when you say that. Last time I went to see the fifth prince, I saw that Chengfei's food and clothing expenses were almost catching up with the Queen's. It's not the imperial concubine, that's too extravagant. There are other concubines, although the palace advocated frugality back then, and His Majesty also supported frugality in the harem, but some concubines are spoiled and spoiled, and the division in the palace is not enough. The natal family supports them. Every one of their natal families is rich!"

Hearing Princess Ruoshui's complaints like this, Lin Fufu laughed inwardly, but Princess Ruoshui actually told the truth.

If it is really counted, I am afraid that those prominent concubines in the palace have more family property than Princess Ruoshui.

Lin Fufu couldn't help thinking of the famous book "A Dream of Red Mansions" in his previous life.

There is a bridge where the concubine returns to her natal family to visit relatives. For example, Jia's mansion spent a million taels to build a beautiful Grand View Garden.

Actually, Great Wei could learn from this idea, let the concubine go back to her natal family to visit relatives, and then the imperial court sent imperial merchants to sell building materials for the construction of the relative palace.

After careful operation, the money finally entered the treasury.

Lin Fufu mentioned this suggestion to Princess Ruoshui, and Princess Ruoshui's eyes became brighter and brighter.

"Well, that's a great idea!" She said excitedly, "I'll write a note and discuss this matter with His Majesty later."

Lin Fufu knows that she only needs to make this suggestion. The other Princess Ruoshui and His Majesty the Emperor have discussed it, so they can naturally send someone to take care of it.

"Do you have any good ideas?" Princess Ruoshui asked Lin Fufu again.

Lin Fufu pondered for a moment, pursed his lips and said: "Actually, I think the royal family is very mysterious to the folk, and the things used by the royal family are all made by the emperor, which is very attractive to the folk. I think if your majesty If you can order some treasures collected by the royal family to be auctioned publicly, I think there are so many rich people in Da Wei, and some families with rich background will be willing to auction their collections with silver."

In Lin Fufu's view, some good things such as rubbings of treasures handed down from generation to generation, famous paintings and handwriting, and antique porcelain are all stored in the royal family's collection for decades and hundreds of years without seeing the light of day. Those who really like them buy them back and treasure them.

Princess Ruoshuichang didn't immediately agree with Lin Fufu's suggestion, because there are some things that are used by the queen, whether it is for the common people or those of aristocratic families, they are not entitled to enjoy them at all.

She felt that Lin Fufu was too courageous, and dared to make such an idea.

"I'm afraid His Majesty will not agree." Princess Ruoshui frowned after pondering for a while.

Lin Fufu tilted his head to look at Princess Ruoshui, and asked with a smile, "Why does His Majesty disagree?"

Princess Ruoshuichang smiled helplessly, stretched out her hand to take a sip of tea, and said: "My ancestors never did this before, and Your Majesty dare not break the ancestral system easily."

The emperor seems to be above ten thousand people, but he is not so free, he can do whatever he wants.

Everything you do, every decision you make, must be carefully considered, even if you do this, you may still be opposed by those old censors.

However, Lin Fufu thinks that if there is no destruction, there will be no progress, and if there is no change, there will be no progress.

What's more, she also knows that some treasures collected by the royal family are not actually owned by the royal family.

Who dares to say that those must belong to the royal family.

In fact, it belongs to the wealth of all mankind.

Now that the Wei treasury is empty, exchanging some of it for money and finding a good home for those treasures, in Lin Fufu's opinion, it is a real good thing.

"Auntie, you are about to persuade His Majesty. Some treasures are not handed down from the ancestors all the time, right? If they are handed down from the ancestors, or treasures with a long history, then you can keep them. Pick them out every year I don't think it matters how many pieces come up for auction," Lin Fufu said.

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed in her mind, and her tone became excited, "By the way, I think we can pick out some treasures from other small vassal countries to pay tribute to, and we can invite the envoys of that country to come to the auction. I think they must be very happy." Interested, and we can also show the tolerance and broad mind of our Great Wei!"

Princess Ruoshui began to think seriously after hearing the words.

In all fairness, she thought Lin Fufu's suggestion was amazing, but she knew more about His Majesty's intentions, so she really wasn't sure.

Looking at Princess Ruoshui's face, Lin Fufu knew that she was not sure.

On the contrary, she herself felt that this method was very good.

"Also, Auntie, there must be other treasures handed down from the royal family in the treasury of the royal family. Maybe they are gifts from the ancestors of the previous generations to the royal family. They can also be auctioned. I believe those families are very happy I paid a lot of money to buy it back. And the money I get is put into the national treasury, which is also a good thing for the country and the people. Isn’t this a huge success?” Lin Fufu paused, and said with a confident smile: “I’m really I don’t believe that the emperor’s uncle will disagree after thinking about these benefits.”

In matters of the world, profit is the top priority, even for the emperor.

His treasury is almost unable to pay the minister's salary, Lin Fufu does not believe that he knows such a quick way to get money and is not tempted.

So she tried her best to persuade Princess Ruoshui to talk to the emperor's uncle, "Auntie, no matter what, if you think this method is good, you can really discuss it with your majesty!"
