Chapter 453 I owe a total of 500 million guan

Chapter 453 I owe a total of 500 million guan

Although the distance is a bit far. , but Li Er could still clearly see the handwriting on that piece of paper.

He even clearly saw the name he had written on the paper.

Li Er's face became more and more gloomy.He really couldn't understand why Bai Jingyi brought this IOU to the court! ?
At the same time, he was thinking in his heart: "Could it be that this Zhuzi is afraid that I will renege on my debt? So he has to say it in front of civil and military officials!?"

When thinking of this, Li Er was so angry that his face turned pale and red.

But Bai Jingyi spread the piece of paper with a half-smile, and then said to Li Er, "Yesterday, the Holy Majesty left in a hurry. He didn't stamp this IOU!"

"Sigh~~"

After hearing this, all civil and military officials couldn't help but gasped.

What the hell is going on?
To let the Holy One write an IOU! ?
The wealth and power of the world controlled by the royal family.Do you still owe people money?

No one can guess what happened in it.

Even people from aristocratic families can only guess.

Li Er's expression was unusually gloomy, he looked at Bai Jingyi and didn't speak.

The officials were not happy to see the Holy Majesty, so they didn't dare to come forward to talk to him.For fear of offending the Holy Majesty.

Eunuch Chen at the side glanced at Bai Jingyi and then at Bai Jingyi, Li Er stood still and didn't dare to move.

Li Er said in a very gloomy tone: "Bring it up!"

"Yes!"

Eunuch Chen responded softly, then walked down the steps with small steps, and took the IOU from Bai Jingyi's hand.

Li Er looked at the familiar handwriting, and felt an urge to tear it up on the spot.

But he held back.At this time, all civil and military officials were present, even the princes of the southern vassal states.

If the IOU is torn up at this time, wouldn't that confirm my reputation as a renegades! ?

Eunuch Chen took the jade seal on the side and got Li Er's consent.So he printed the jade seal squarely on the IOU.

Since then, this IOU has been completely completed!

Afterwards, Eunuch Chen gave the IOU to Bai Jingyi again.

All civil and military officials were curious, what is the content of this IOU?
But at this moment, the Holy Majesty was in a rage, and they didn't dare to ask at all.

Even those ministers of the state still did not dare to raise His Majesty's eyebrows.

And Bai Jingyi stretched out the IOUs with both hands, and said calmly, "The Holy One owes a total of 500 million copper coins to this minister!"

"Sigh~~"

Above the Taiji Hall, the sound of gasping for air kept coming and going.

They didn't expect the Holy Majesty to owe so much money to the King of Beiliang.

Fifteen million guan, equivalent to two years of tax revenue in the heyday of the Tang Dynasty.

What did the Holy One do to owe so much money! ?

All of a sudden, the ministers were discussing below.

But they only dared to whisper their guesses, and they didn't dare to make any noise at all.Some people even dare to make eye contact.

Li Er was taken aback when he heard this sentence, because the IOU did not say how much I owed.

Before Li Er came back to his senses, a minister from below immediately stood up and advised him: "Please, Your Majesty, take the overall situation of our Tang Dynasty as the most important thing! Don't waste the treasury's money!"

"My lord, now my Tang Dynasty has just experienced war. The city has not been repaired! If it is once again invaded by alien races, I am afraid it will be difficult to resist!"

"Report to Your Majesty! Now that the Tang Dynasty has just been established, and our national strength has not yet recovered, Your Majesty, don't waste extravagance!"

"I hope your majesty will think twice! Take it back and use the money where it should be used!"

These ministers kindly persuaded Li Er, but Li Er was extremely uncomfortable.

After all, he didn't know that he would owe so much money.And even if he knew, he might sign it without hesitation.

After all, this is to save all the people in Datang.

But he would never accept this IOU without knowing it.

So Li Er almost roared and said: "Bai Jingyi, you are so brave! How dare you lie to me!?"

But Bai Jingyi said indifferently: "This IOU is clearly written on it! Besides, the Holy Majesty not only signed his name, but also stamped it with a jade seal!"

"How can a humble minister be considered as deceiving the Holy Majesty!?"

"you……"

Li Er was speechless after hearing this.Although he felt that the IOU was a bit strange, he didn't find any difference in it.

Bai Jingyi looked at Li Er very speechlessly, and thought in his heart: "I don't understand, so you have to blame me!?"

Li Er looked gloomy, looking at the ministers who questioned him, Li Er controlled his anger, and asked word by word: "Then how do you explain this IOU?"

Today he has to give an explanation to the civil and military officials.Let them know where the 500 million copper coins have been spent.

At the same time, I also want to know how I was calculated.

Bai Jingyi said indifferently: "This IOU is clearly written on it!"

"Sell all the woolen sweaters in my store in Liangzhou to the Holy One! At fifty cash per piece!"

"At the same time, my shop in Liangzhou can go to all the states and counties of Datang for sales on behalf of Shengshang!"

"And all the money earned from selling woolen sweaters is owned by the people of Liangzhou!"

"Could it be that the Holy One didn't read the writing on it clearly!?"

When Li Er heard this, he was a little dazed.

They have already been sold to Zhen, why should they be sold to the common people in the world! ?

The civil and military officials were also a little confused. They didn't understand what the king of Beiliang meant by this move.

But they knew in their hearts that the royal family used 500 million copper coins to buy all the woolen sweaters from Bai Jingyi.

It was also the first time that the princes of the southern vassal states noticed woolen sweaters.

They were all thinking about what this woolen sweater was, and why did His Majesty spend so much money on it?
Li Er really couldn't figure out the difference, so he asked directly: "Even so! Why do we need 500 million guns!?"

Seeing that Li Er had stamped his seal, Bai Jingyi said indifferently, "That's because there are more than [-] million people in my Tang Dynasty!"

"Yesterday, the Holy One sent someone to buy 1000 million woolen sweaters! There are still 3000 million woolen sweaters left in Weichen's hands!"

"How much is it worth? Could it be that the Holy One doesn't count?"

When he heard this, Li Er was speechless.Because he really doesn't count.

He immediately looked down at the civil servants below, hoping that they could stand up and speak for him.

The most important thing is that they need their help to calculate, right?

After all, the money was related to the tax revenue for two years during the heyday of the Tang Dynasty.

However, the civil servants below counted one by one, as if they didn't see Li Er's eyes, and they didn't mean to stand up and speak at all...
