The 25 million taels of silver was put into the treasury in the court, causing a sensation. Bi Ziyan, the Minister of Revenue, was the happiest. With so much gold and silver, he could do a lot of things. Although the income increased a little after increasing the Liao salary, the silver that could actually enter the treasury was only a few million taels. Moreover, he was scolded by the Liao salary, and some even said that he was worse than a pig or a dog.

There are too many places that require expenditure. To eliminate bandits, to relieve disasters, to defend the Later Jin in the north, and to protect the local garrisons. Bi Ziyan was busy and the Ministry of Revenue was particularly lively.

The expenditure of silver requires approval from the cabinet and finally submitted to the emperor. However, in this procedure, the most critical step is the first step, at least the Ministry of Revenue needs to propose a plan. If there is no plan in the middle, then you will definitely not get silver.

During the morning court, there was a quarrel in the cabinet due to the silver expenses. The emperor was very angry. He could not have any money. This situation occurred. The major expenses had been decided. The first expenditure was to pay the soldiers. Due to the owed money, many soldiers in the garrisons in various places caused a mutiny among many garrison soldiers. This was the first thing to stabilize. The second expenditure was disaster relief, especially in Mengjin, Henan. Because of the breaking of the Yellow River, the losses were heavy and relief were urgently needed. The third was to eliminate the bandits, and the fourth was to defend against the Later Jin.

Just these four expenses cost nearly ten million taels of silver.

There are also some small expenses, and the decision-making power lies in the hands of the cabinet and the Ministry of Revenue. For example, the department lacks office money, etc., etc. The emperor will not interfere in these matters.

The most debated morning court was the candidate for the Censor of the Inspectorate and Censor who provided disaster relief.

Zhou Yanru and Wen Tiren both opposed the Central Government's use of disaster relief. This time, they rarely agreed to the opinions, but the candidates proposed by the two were different. Zhou Yanru tended to send candidates to the Censorate, which was a common practice. On the one hand, disaster relief was provided, and on the other hand, disaster relief money could be supervised. Can the money to be used in real terms? Wen Tiren tended to send candidates to the Ministry of Personnel to inspect the officials below while providing disaster relief.

Both of them were thinking of sending their own confidants.

The chief minister and the secondary assistant of the cabinet made suggestions, and of course there would be no new suggestions from the rest of the ministers.

The disaster relief ministers who went to Shanxi, Shandong, Shaanxi and other places have been determined, but the disaster relief ministers who went to the severely affected areas Henan were unable to settle it for a long time.

But the emperor never spoke, obviously denied the proposal of the two to go to Henan for disaster relief ministers.

Disaster relief is like putting out fires, and it is impossible to delay. After the morning court, all the cabinet ministers and the six ministers went to Huangji Hall. It seems that they need to further unify their thinking and clarify all the inspectors and censors who provide disaster relief.

Zhu Youjian's heart was thinking of making Su Tiancheng the position of the Henan disaster relief inspector. He believed in Su Tiancheng. As for the opinions put forward by Zhou Yanru and Wen Tiren, anyone with a discerning eye could understand that they were recommended to their respective confidants.

Disaster relief is a hard job, and it is also a job that everyone wants to fight for.

As the inspector and censor sent by the court, if you work seriously, you need to personally understand the situation and make a decision. Don’t just follow the mercy of local officials and let the money for disaster relief be truly used by the victims. If you say that the work is perfunctory, you can rely on local officials to complete the disaster relief work. As for the effect, God knows.

Zhu Youjian's face showed a smile.

As long as the cabinet minister agrees with his opinion, there will be no big problem.

He faintly felt that Zhou Yanru was a little too arrogant. Relying on his own trust, he was increasingly unable to understand his own difficulties, while Wen Tiren was able to understand his own efforts even more.

"The minister who went to Henan to provide disaster relief is Su Tiancheng. Don't discuss this matter anymore."

Su Tiancheng seemed relatively leisurely. After arriving at the stable, he met the emperor and nothing else was done.

Chen Yutai, editor of Hanlin Academy, and Wu Weiye, were not in the stables. They all went out to inspect, saying that it was an inspection, but in fact they were mainly to go downstairs to understand the people's conditions and prepare for the future administration. The two of them had just gone downstairs, and before that, they were impeached respectively.

Su Tianhao took two days to reunite, and the scene was not so warm. It seemed that this strong family affection always lost its original taste.

Su Tiancheng was full of confidence and thought he would be able to return to Jiangning County soon.

He would never have thought that he would become the inspector and censor for disaster relief, and he would go to Henan, the hardest-hit area.

On July 26, Su Tiancheng arrived at the Forbidden City again.

This time it was in the Huangji Palace.

Kneeling on the ground and listening to the imperial edict, Su Tiancheng was sent to Henan for disaster relief. It was not a good thing. Disaster relief seemed simple. After going on, it was majestic. Local officials would listen to you. The inspector's censor was awesome. But it really had to do a good job in disaster relief. There was no detailed plan or follow-up development goals. Just a quick look and thought that if you gave the money, you would complete the task. That was a big mistake.

I have a lot of things to do. The Ministry of Justice has sent the imperial edict to Jiangning County. The results of the disposal of Kuang Siming's family have also come out and all of them are sent to Qiongzhou. I have to pay special attention to this matter, at least I ask the escort personnel to take care of them and not to be harsh on Kuang Siming's family.

And the most important thing about the Singer is to leave all the ammunition. This thing is not capable of producing for the time being and can only be purchased for money in the future.

The matter of Guantian has not been fully implemented.

Kuang Siming's mansion and arable land all need to be dealt with. The tenants were panicked and did not know what to do next. From the letters from Qu Qingze and Su Pingyang, Su Tiancheng already knew that some tenants took the initiative to hand over half of their food to the county government office. They were worried that they would lose the arable land and the land they depend on for their survival.

There are also issues with the resettlement of the families of soldiers in the inspection department.

But now I have to go to Henan District to provide disaster relief, so it will probably take more than a month to go there.

After the imperial edict was issued, he had no choice. Fortunately, the Xiaoqi Camp in Nanjing Jingying followed him to Henan to provide disaster relief, so there is no need to doubt the safety of the cavalry.
