Chapter 114 Fundraising Plan

When Mo Zizai heard Jia Fu say that this matter is easy to handle, he was surprised, "It's easy to handle, what should I do?"

“It’s very simple.”

Jia Fu smiled and said, "As the prince's idea, the border is in urgent need of drought in the three counties, and the national treasury is empty, and the urgent need of silver. Just ask those merchants to donate money."

"Isn't this the same as not saying it."

Mo Zizai rolled his eyes with some dissatisfaction. The problem now is that the treasury is not empty. He searched his home and ransomware. Even if the 10 million taels of upgraded accelerator, the treasury will still have 30 million taels.

Moreover, in order to dig a hole for yourself, the officials also spread this story all over the city. Now they say that they have no money, so you really think of those businessmen as fools.

"But the treasury is really not rich now, right?"

Jia Fu did not explain much about Mo Zizai's dissatisfaction. He just spread his hands and said, "The money from the treasury is from His Majesty, but because it was obtained by the prince, to be precise, it was from the prince's money."

"Um?"

Hearing this, Mo Zizai seemed to understand something. He nodded thoughtfully, "Yes, you can continue talking."

"Since that is the prince's money, it is naturally the prince's control. As long as Lord Xue goes to raise funds, he will release the wind. He will say that the prince will not pay any of the money. In this way, the treasury will still be empty."

Jia Fu said lightly with a hint of coldness on his face: "Anyway, people in the world have many misunderstandings about the prince. If you put the prince in the matter of greed for money, no one will doubt it."

"This is definitely not possible, General Manager Jia."

Xue Wanche shook his head directly and rejected: "This Great Zhou is the prince's Great Zhou. If even the prince refuses to pay, how could those merchants pay?"

"It is in this case that talents who are willing to pay are even more valuable."

Hearing Xue Wanche's rebuttal, Jia Fu said lightly: "If a person who is sincere in his country and the country is in trouble, he will pay no matter what the situation is. If he has no country in his heart, even if the prince pays it, they will pretend that they have not seen it."

"Xue doesn't agree with this."

Xue Wanche still couldn't agree with Jia Fu's statement, "Patriotism is based on the situation where the country still has rescued. If the prince can't pay a penny of the money, Mr. Jia, what do you think those businessmen will think?"

"Even if they still have some patriotism, in this case, they will feel that our Great Zhou is completely helpless, right?"

Xue Wanche said it was very rude, and it could even be said to be a bit disobedient, but he didn't care too much, because if he really did what Jia Fu said, it would be great if one of the 100 merchants in the capital could survive.

Such a result was too serious and he could not afford it, and he felt that the current Great Zhou Dynasty could not afford it either.

"Okay, stop arguing."

Mo Zizai waved his hand and interrupted the two of them. "What Jia Fu said is indeed reasonable, but it is also a bit too extreme."

"After all, we just want to choose some people who are willing to contribute to the Great Zhou Dynasty, rather than killing all the merchants. Your standards are too strict."

"However, your approach is somewhat beneficial."

Mo Zizai pondered for a while and said, "Let's do this, Lord Xue, just tell the public that this money has been greedy for part of it."

"Now, the only thing Your Majesty can do is only 10 million taels, but this ten million taels are somewhat ineffective in dealing with the war in the East and the disaster victims of the three counties. Use this reason to ask them to raise funds."

"If they can't make a score of this ten million taels, then I can't blame me for being ruthless."

After hearing Mo Zizai say this, Xue Wanche still hesitated on his face, but he had no better idea now, so he could only nod helplessly and agree, "Okay, I understand."

After just agreeing, Xue Wanche remembered another thing and asked carefully: "By the way, the prince."

"We are doing this fundraising under the banner of His Majesty. Should we tell His Majesty about this?"

"No."

Mo Zizai shook his head and said, "Let me go back and let her add an edict to send it to Tianjingwei. If anyone questioned it, just take the edict to them."

"A remedy for the edict..."

Listening to Mo Zizai's casual tone, Xue Wanche felt a little silent. The edict said that he would make up for it. Can a wife be so arrogant if she becomes the emperor?

"Okay, I understand."

"Since there is no problem, then you can make arrangements."

Mo Zizai thought for a moment and then reminded: "Try to finish this matter before the day after tomorrow, because I plan to attack them the day after tomorrow."

More than half of today has passed, plus one day tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow will only take a little more than a day.

"Is it a day?"

Xue Wanche frowned slightly and said in a little embarrassed manner: "Prince, the whole day is a little tight."

It wasn't that he was willing to refuse. This was the first task Mo Zizai assigned him. He also wanted to do a better job of showing off, but he really couldn't handle it in one day and a half.

Although he knew some of the wealthy businessmen in the city, he didn't know everything. It was not enough to find these people just because they didn't have enough time, let alone to come to raise funds one by one. This matter could not be handled in four or five days.

"You don't have to worry about the list of wealthy businessmen."

Mo Zizai knew Xue Wanche’s difficulties, but he had a solution. “Although Yuzhishi does not have detailed information about wealthy businessmen in the capital, there is still a rough list.”

"You just need to have someone visit one by one according to the list and then raise money from them."

As for the minimum amount of money that needs to be raised, Mo Zizai did not determine it for Xue Wanche. It was not really for money, so it was meaningless to set the standard. So they simply asked them to donate as much as they wanted. If they donated, they would just kill the few donated ones.

After all, if the edict is issued, it is equivalent to the emperor signing and asking for money on your face. You will give me a little more. If you don’t kill anyone, you will be as easy as Chongzhen.

As for why you have to get things done before the day after tomorrow, it is because according to time, if you want to get a chance, Tang Weilu can advance to the human realm.

So Mo Zizai thought of solving these trivial things before the day after tomorrow, and then gave himself a day off the day after tomorrow and stayed at peace with Tang Weiyi and Tang Weilu.

"If you want to give yourself a holiday, you have to squeeze in time. I am really hard-working as a prince. I don't know when I will be idle. I don't even have the time to go to the brothel. It's so difficult for me."

Xue Wanche didn't know what Mo Zizai was thinking, but when he heard Mo Zizai say that Yuzhishi would give him the list of wealthy businessmen, he suddenly felt that there was no problem.

If there is a list, it will be less troublesome. He just needs to ask the Tianjingwei to visit one by one. In this way, he will not even have a day to visit the wealthy businessmen in the capital.
