Chapter 225

"Prime Minister Gao, I have prepared a banquet for you tonight. Please be sure to study and participate."

The negotiations between the Sui Dynasty and Zhao Kingdom were coming to an end. In order to show the generousness of Zhao Kingdom, Feng Hao spent some money to ask Li Li to go to the capital to buy the best ingredients and find all the famous domestic dishes chefs.

The reason why I did this is actually because Feng Hao has money now and has no place to spend it. Some day ago, he achieved another achievement "first show of success", and the system rewarded him with 10 million taels of silver and 100,000 taels of gold.

The reason is that this achievement is quite wet. Some days ago, they did not take the initiative to attack and hit several halls in a row, which made the achievement passively activated.

After these ten million taels of silver were filled into the treasury, the current state treasury of Zhao State, including the stolen silver confiscated by the corrupt officials, there were a total of 72.39 million taels of silver and 19.35 million taels of gold.

Good guy, are Zhaoguo's fiscal revenue so rich now? Not to mention more than 70 million taels of silver, but to mention the current currency rate of gold, one tael of gold can match eight taels of silver.

If you make up, Zhaoguo now has 20 million taels of gold and can make up 160 million taels of silver.

"Call Liu Bao, and I will ask him to make a calculation."

Soon, Liu Bao, the Minister of Revenue, stepped into the palace with great strides. Now he is a member of the country's wealth, and he is remembering the accounts of the treasury every time.

"My minister Liu Bao, long live the king!"

"Okay Liu Bao, get up. I came to you because I wanted you to settle the calculation."

However, Liu Bao did not respond to Feng Hao. He took out a small abacus in his arms. Although the abacus was small, it was also Liu Bao's secret magic weapon. The money in the national treasury was all calculated by his small abacus.

Why don't you use the computer on your phone? The reason is that he doesn't know how to use it at all~

"If we send troops to the Sui Dynasty, how much do you think the troops can be used?"

Feng Hao asked this question, and Liu Bao suddenly felt something was wrong. Shouldn’t he ask the Ministry of War to tell me about this question? The Ministry of War’s funds are all managed by the Minister of War, not to mention that he only carries out and distributes his salary, and then in charge of the treasury money. Who can count the funds of the army?

"King, aren't you cheating me? The military funds are all managed by the Minister of War. Where can I have the power to calculate these?" Liu Bao said to Feng Hao a little depressedly.

Feng Hao waved his hand and asked him to make a backup of the funds from the Ministry of War, so he asked him to calculate according to this backup to see how much he could calculate, and then summarize the time and general amount of money to almost know how much it costs to go to the expropriation.

"I'll ask you for the Ministry of War. What about you, do it well here. I'll bring you all the iron abacuses that can be calculated and you can calculate it well here." Feng Haozheng said, then took out his cell phone and called the Ministry of Revenue Officer, asking them to bring the Ministry of Revenue's iron abacus to the palace to settle the accounts.

Soon, the Ministry of Revenue's official came with six or seven iron abacuses from the Ministry of Revenue. Several people lined up side by side and sat in front of Feng Hao and sang the abacus at the account book.

Feng Hao looked at the current group, what did they talk about all morning?

"Yang Yuhuan is so affectionate... Miss Wu Zetian has also joined the group?"

Feng Hao read out all the words they said, and then saw why there was one more person in the group. After opening the group list, Wu Zetian entered the group.

"Oh, this isn't Miss Wu Zetian~ Welcome!"

However, no one responded to Feng Hao's kind greeting, only Wu Zetian came in desolately and greeted the group leader in the voice of the Royal Sister.

"Yeah, the group leader is good~"

After listening to Wu Zetian's voice, Feng Hao could not hold on anymore. He had already wanted to cultivate himself and his desire for beauty exploded instantly.

But soon, Liu Bao calculated all the funds for the expropriation.

"King, the army is expected to use a total of 23.16 million taels of military funds, including weapons, food, clothing, and various siege equipment used by the army!"

If these funds are used, they will fight against the Sui Dynasty. If these military funds are calculated, they will be very rich if they can fight for one year.

Even with this money, you can buy more food and winter clothes for emergencies.

Feng Hao put down his cell phone and thought for a while, then looked up and said to Liu Bao: "More than 20 million taels of silver, can you fight for about two years?"

Liu Bao replied with confidence: "My calculations are all the best. It is indeed two years. If you fight for two years, the money will be rich."

With Liu Bao's words, he thought I was just going to give up. However, when purchasing grain and grass, the other party would definitely take advantage of Zhao's attack on other countries to raise prices. Therefore, the grain and grass they purchased may not be all refined grains.

There are now four granaries in Zhaoguo, which can store a total of 7.8 million kilograms of grain and grass, and the current granary storage capacity is only 3.63 million kilograms.

If this battle can be fought for two years and half a million troops are pulled out to fight, then food and grass are a problem.

"Liu Bao, I will order you to fill the treasury's food and grass within half a month."

Half a month?! What does this mean? They have to raise more than 4 million kilograms of food and grass in half a month, but where can they buy it?

Speaking of this, Liu Bao was a little panicked. Didn’t he intentionally make fun of him?

"King, where can I buy so much food and grass?"

"I use the treasury money. I don't care what method you use. Within half a month, I will raise the grain and fill all the granary. If I don't fill it, I will blame you."

It seems that he is going to do a big battle this time. If that is the case, then what Feng Hao has to do next is to start a war with the nations.

Seeing that Feng Hao was so determined and even proposed to spend the money from the treasury, Liu Bao could only find another way to buy food and grass from major black markets and buy it in large quantities, but the price may be slightly higher.

Prime Minister Wang Meng saw Liu Bao with a tired look outside. He walked up to ask a few words. Liu Bao told Wang Meng what had just happened. Isn’t this nonsense?

"King, you asked Liu Bao to raise 4 million kilograms of grain and grass in half a month. If the major domestic merchants don't have that much grain, where can they pay?" Wang Meng asked in confusion.

Feng Hao's plan is very clear. This food and grass are a must-have for the army. If he wants to fight, he must solve the problem of food and grass. Without food and grass, it will always be a problem.

"The treasury pays money, even if it is purchased from the black market, it's no big deal."

"King, why are you? You have to fight the Sui Dynasty?"

"The world is balanced so comfortably. We must go through a bloody battle to break this balance."

Only then did Wang Meng understand Feng Hao’s real intention. If he continued to do this, no matter how many soldiers the country in the world raised, it would be just a decoration if he didn’t fight.
