Chapter 755: It's not easy to ask for money(1/3)
Mr.
As for Wang Xiaolangjun, he is busy with big things.
I have no idea about the little thoughts of his old man.
What time of the year is it now, how can I still have time to think about what is there and what is not?
Making money is serious!
Make money!
Make money like crazy!
The question is, where does the money come from?
I want to take it from Wang Mi's pocket, but I'm sorry, there really isn't much.
The thing is like this. On the whole, the Langya Wang family is of course extremely wealthy.
But when it comes to Wang Mi personally, he really doesn't have much money in his hands.
Saying this does not mean that he is a poor household and does not even have any living money.
Yes, there is.
For example, in Jingkou, when Liu Yu owed money, he helped pay back the money. He could give him the amount of materials with just a wave of his hand.
No effort at all.
But in the current situation, he is really powerless.
That's a lot of money to support the general's workshop, make artillery, and make pistols.
It is indeed a bit difficult to just let him do it by himself.
After returning to the palace, Wang Mi kept wandering around in the courtyard.
I was thinking about how to find someone to take advantage of and get the money out.
This candidate is not easy to find.
Although the people in the palace did not complain much about him going to the workshop to fiddle with these new weapons.
However, that is because they have long known that the money for making weapons comes from the imperial court.
But now, the imperial court will not be able to count on it for a while.
In order to organize Sima Yao's funeral, the national treasury was bleeding again, and there was no extra money to support the workshop.
It was precisely because of the understanding of the current financial situation of the imperial court that the Queen Mother Wang Zhenying came to help and used the private money from the harem to support the general workshop.
This is nothing less than providing help in times of need, and it is quite a difficult task.
However, for the continuous production of weapons, this little money, as Pu Chao said, can only support it for a dozen days at most.
It simply can't last long.
If we want it to last, we need wealthy people like the Wang family to continue to export.
If the money-obsessed people in the Wang family knew about such a loss, how could they be willing to comply?
Wang Mi must be hung up and beaten.
There are two places here that are not worthy of the name, which hinder Wang Mi from making money.
One is that supporting the army, including providing weapons, has always been a matter for the imperial court.
If the court doesn't provide money, can it still count on the big family?
So, do you want to give the Wang family a share of the taxes collected by the court?
The second issue is the ownership of Beifu soldiers.
This is a major issue that has always been unresolved.
In the past, the Xie family paid a lot of money to support the Beifu soldiers, but that was because the Beifu soldiers were held hostage by the Xie family at that time.
It is the Xie family's sphere of influence.
Since your Xie family controls the Beifu soldiers, it is natural for you to support them.
Even so, I think back then, when Xie Xuan was still able to move, the Xie family did not suffer too much.
When he is out of time, he reaches out to the court and gathers as much wool as he can.
And now?
The Xie family's wool probably won't be harvested.
The key is, who is in charge of the Beifu soldiers now?
Although Wang Mi is now in charge of the Beifu soldiers, he is also looking at Xie An's face.
It was Xie An who gave him this right because Wang Mi was his grandson-in-law.
If it was not related to the Xie family, how could such a good job fall on Wang Mi?
Since the Beifu soldiers are actually still under the jurisdiction of the Xie family, the money should be paid by the Xie family.
Wang Mi can think of these reasons without even mentioning them to his family.
However, we have to make money. In this situation, it would be too late to go to Xie An.
We still have to find a solution within the Wang family.
"Zhiyuan, you're back, why didn't you say hello?"
Wang Mi was wandering around in the yard, racking his brains, when he suddenly heard a familiar voice from behind.
Huh?
Is this...the God of Wealth coming to your door?
"Hello uncle.
"quickly put on a smiling face, archer said.
In fact, Wang Hui already knew that he had returned. When the boys unloaded boxes after boxes of artillery from the carriage, they made a lot of noise.
Not to mention Wang Hui, even that lazy guy Wang Mo heard it.
Ever since Wang Mi came back from the Nanyang battlefield, it seems that this family can no longer accommodate him.
The majestic Langya Wang family and the mansion of a century-old prominent family are not enough for him to realize his ambitions.
Everyone is speculating on what kind of high position this new star of the Wang family will reach in the future before he is satisfied.
Just being a powerful minister, similar to Wang Gong, is probably not enough.
If he was obsessed with the little power he had in the court, there would be no need to go to Jingkou to lead troops.
Here, Jiankang City is a natural stage.
All you need to do is open up your stance and fight Wang Gong.
According to everyone's predictions, Wang Mi, who has military achievements on his side, may be even more powerful.
However, that was previous conjecture.
Now, everyone saw Wang Mi's actual actions, and they all said that guesses were just guesses, and he couldn't be sure.
Originally, people thought that Wang Mi struggled to go to the front line to kill the enemy, just because he wanted to use his military achievements as a basis to fight for power in the court.
But looking at it now, it's not like that at all.
In terms of military merit, Wang Mi is now the leader among the sons of aristocratic families in the Jin Dynasty.
He is not worthy of anyone else carrying his shoes.
With such power, it was enough for him and Wang Gong to start fighting.
The results of it?
They did not stop at a few victories and a few cities.
The chaos in Jiankang City had just settled down, and within a few days, news came out, and various signs showed that people no longer wanted to stay in Jiankang City.
I have to go back to Jingkou.
At first, everyone didn’t quite believe it, but today they have no choice but to believe it.
Weapons have been prepared, doesn't this mean we are about to set off?
Are you preparing to transform yourself into a military commander by actively preparing for war?
I, the Langya Wang clan, don’t need any generals!
Fighting has always been a matter for rough men. I think back then, Huan Wen was teased by his colleagues just because he wielded swords and guns and fought on the battlefield as a son of a noble family.
No one thinks highly of him.
In the circle of aristocratic families, face is very important.
Even the most important.
