The seven ministers walked together and quickly left the palace and returned to their respective yamen. Zhang Feizi also had his own Left Prime Minister's Mansion. However, compared with the Right Prime Minister's Mansion, the Left Prime Minister's Mansion was relatively small, but Zhang Feizi was already very satisfied.

Department of Revenue!

The Ministry of Revenue is located on the north side of the palace, covering an area of ​​100 acres. There are more than a dozen courtyards in the Ministry of Revenue. Each courtyard is responsible for different things, including those responsible for territory, those responsible for taxation, those responsible for fertile land, etc.

The Ministry of Revenue was very busy at this time, and you could see busy officials running back and forth with a bunch of documents at every moment.

"Sir Shangshu!"

"I have met Lord Shangshu!"

As soon as Jaro walked into the Ministry of Revenue, officials from the Ministry of Revenue who were busy in the yamen saluted one after another. Jaro just nodded and headed straight to the main hall with a expressionless face. The main hall was his place to handle official affairs, but it was not his first main hall, but was used by officials above the head.

The main hall is divided into three side halls on the left, middle and right. The one belongs to Jaro is the middle hall. After Jaro entered the main hall, he did not sit in the middle hall directly to handle official duties, but came to the left side hall. The officials in the left side hall did not notice that Lord Shangshu was coming because they were too busy, so busy that they forgot everything around and were completely immersed in official duties.

After coming to Zuo Piantang, Jaro's eyes glanced back and forth on the officials in Zuo Piantang, found Zhang Gui and Zhang Ling who were working hard, and then called out: "Zhang Gui, Zhang Ling," he said!"

When Zhang Gui and Zhang Ling heard the call, they quickly raised their heads. The other officials also subconsciously looked up. When they saw that it was Jaro, they quickly got up from their seats, bent down to salute and said, "Good official to see the Secretary of the State!"

"Sit down!" Jaro pressed his hands blankly, and the officials obediently sat back on their seats. Zhang Gui and Zhang Ling were full of doubts, wondering why Jaro called him and his brothers. Jaro said in a slight tone: "Your Majesty announces that you enter the palace, hurry up and don't delay the important matters!"

When he heard this, many officials present couldn't help but feel envious, jealous and hated. It was good to have a father who was the prime minister, who transformed from a businessman to a sixth-rank chief. Now His Majesty still announces that they have entered the palace.

It has to be said that because the two brothers Zhang Gui and Zhang Ling were airborne, many minor officials at the bottom hated him, believing that the two brothers had stolen their positions. However, due to the Secretary of the Shang Dynasty Jia Luo and the Left Prime Minister Zhang Feizi, they dared not act rashly, so they could only curse in their hearts.

"Oh? Your Majesty summoned us?"

"For what?"

The two brothers looked at each other and could see the doubts in each other's eyes. Seeing that the two of them were still standing, Jaro couldn't help but curse: "Why are you still standing there? Go quickly!"

Although Zhang Gui and Zhang Ling have a great origin, Jia Luo did not care at all because this is the Ministry of Revenue and he is the boss here.

"Yes! Lord Shangshu!" Zhang Gui and Zhang Lingzuo Jiying shouted, and then hurried out of Zuo Piantang. After the two left, Jaro said to one of the officials: "You go find two people to take over and temporarily take over the affairs of Zhang Gui and Zhang Ling!"

"Abide by the order! Lord Shangshu!" The official named respectfully replied.

"Come here!"

"Don't be too slow, hurry up, get out if you don't want to do it, there are so many people who want to come in!"

"Bastard, what did you do!"

Jaro also began to sit in the middle hall to handle official duties. Because Jaro was straightforward and cursed without any mercy, not long after, Jaro's angry curses came from the main hall from time to time, which made the officials in the main hall frightened.

......

After a while, Imperial Study Room!

Ying Chang, sitting on the throne of the dragon, looked at Zhang Gui and Zhang Ling, not far away in front of him. These two brothers were very fast and arrived at the imperial study room in less than a stick of incense.

Both Zhang Gui and Zhang Ling looked puzzled on their faces, and they wanted to ask what was the purpose, but Ying Chang didn't speak, so they didn't bother.

After a little silent for a few breaths, Ying Chang said: "Just shortly after, the right prime minister submitted a budget memorial, and this year's budget reached more than 30 million taels of silver. Although there are a lot of extra expenses this year, as long as nothing unexpected happens, the annual fiscal expenditure in the future will be more than 28 million!"

"And my annual fiscal revenue is only 16 million taels of silver and 17 million grain. In addition to the surplus of grain every year, the silver deficit is now only about 25 million taels of silver, which cannot support the expenses next year. I declare that you two will enter the palace for money!"

When Zhang Gui and Zhang Ling heard these words, they frowned and were also shocked. The annual fiscal expenditure was 30 million taels of silver, which was too great!

"Your Majesty, I have some savings in my family. I am willing to donate 30 million taels of silver!" Zhang Gui bent down with a solemn and respectful expression and replied.

Zhang Ling's face was as quiet as water, and obviously did not object to Zhang Gui.

"Haha!" Ying Chang couldn't help but smile. The two brothers misunderstood him.

Seeing Ying Chang laughing, the two brothers were stunned. What are they laughing? Is it a little less? Thirty million taels of silver is a lot, which is half of their Zhang family's property. Just as the two continued to misunderstand, Ying Chang said with relief and smiled:

"The two beloved ministers are willing to donate 30 million taels of silver to the Qin Dynasty. I am very pleased. But I announce that you are here not to let you donate money, but to let you make money for the Qin Dynasty. You Zhang Chamber of Commerce, I have also learned in-depth in recent days!"

"You are very powerful. You started from scratch. In just ten years, you have created the First Chamber of Commerce of the Yan Empire and achieved the achievement of being rich and comparable to a country. You have such strong ability to make money. You should not be buried with this advantage. I plan to establish a Shangshi Department in the Ministry of Revenue and set up a fourth-rank doctor at the Shangshi Department, and you two will be the two of you!"

"Shangsi?" The two brothers were stunned again!

Their attention was not at all on the fourth-rank doctor's office, but at Shangsi. This is a very strange department and has never appeared before. This made the brothers curious. What does Shangsi manage? The name sounds like being responsible for the National Chamber of Commerce.

"That's right, Shangsi!" Ying Changkeng said vigorously.

"The Shangsi Department is similar to the Chamber of Commerce, but the Chamber of Commerce is controlled by the private private sector, while the Shangsi Department is controlled by the court. I believe you two know more than me that all chambers of commerce in a country make every year. The money earned by all chambers of commerce in a country is definitely ten times the fiscal revenue of the court!" Ying Chang briefly introduced the Shangsi Department and also briefly explained why the Shangsi Department was established.

The Shangsi and the Chamber of Commerce are similar. The Shangsi was established to help the court make money. To put it bluntly, it was to compete for profit with the people. No matter which empire it was, it would not compete for profit with the people. It was believed that it would be a loss of the imperial throne, but in Ying Chang's eyes, it was not the case.
