There is no problem in fighting together in the field, the main issue is leadership.

Due to Di Lin's official status as a prince, Bei Mingkang weighed it again and again and finally decided to return the throne to Di Lin.

However, because the political situation is too complicated and the market is too big, it will take time.

In fact, this is all official rhetoric.

On the surface, Bei Mingkang had to return power to Di Lin, but he also had his own little Jiujiu, which was two words of delay.

After all, Beimingkang has been operating in Huxiao City for many years. It is impossible to hand it over all at once.

Bei Mingkang just took a bunch of random accounts and did it half-heartedly, hoping to hide the truth.

Bei Mingkang claimed to be a rough man. During the war, he spent day and night, so Huxiao City now only has 30,000 taels of silver in its books, and this year's various industrial taxes will not be paid until the end of the autumn.

Spring is coming soon, and the most urgent need before us is that various military supplies for the new season have not been released.

There are 50,000 auxiliary troops in Huxiao City who need a salary of one tael a month. The living expenses of one tael are almost 100,000 taels, and three hundred thousand taels a season.

There are nearly ten thousand warriors, and the minimum cost is twelve months of silver. A captain of ten men will receive twenty taels, a captain of a hundred men will receive fifty taels, and a captain of a thousand men will receive a hundred taels. There are also all kinds of officials, big and small, not to mention food and armaments.

It must be at least 150,000 taels a month, and 450,000 taels a quarter.

However, Huxiao City has collected all the various local taxes and business taxes and head taxes last year. Now all it can collect are various miscellaneous taxes every quarter, which can only collect a few hundred thousand taels in total.

If we want to add, subtract or subtract, there must be at least more than 400,000 taels of vacancies at present.

In the past, he would approach the emperor for money whenever there was a war, but now Bei Mingkang asked Di Lin whether he should take over the military department as well, or let this area remain independent and continue to let the court raise troops for him.

Anyway, he doesn't care. How to repay and to what extent is up to Di Lin to decide.

Di Lin was furious.

This old guy is too shameless.

I don't know how much he has embezzled, but now there is a military emergency. Tiger Roar City has been breached twice, the city lord's palace has been burned down, and the old accounts are incomplete.

Bei Mingkang directly asked Di Lin to choose whether to spend hundreds of thousands of taels or not to take back military power.

Di Lin laughed loudly: "This Tiger Roar City is the area of ​​my Highness, so it will naturally be managed by me. The position of city lord and coach of Tiger Roar City is already too hard. From now on, matters related to taxation or military expenditures will be handed over to Teacher Murong.

Deal with it.

Teacher Murong is temporarily acting as the agent for all political affairs of the Prince's Palace and Huxiao City. He will directly ask about matters related to it when the time comes. I don't know if the Lord of Beiming City has anything else to explain."

Di Lin did not directly agree that I would pay for all the money, but directly handed over all the political power to Murong Liuzhang. Of course, Bei Mingkang was still temporarily responsible for military matters.

After all, if you push too hard, it won't be appropriate, but you still have to maintain the proper posture.

Bei Mingkang's face was calm: "Then I will ask Lord Murong for more advice in the future."

Murong Liushang was calm and composed from beginning to end, smiling and raising his glass: "Okay."

I will definitely teach you how to be a new person.

It's just a great master, which is fine in this remote place, but it's not enough to be seen in the entire Western Chu Kingdom.

This old guy probably doesn't know that there is a huge difference between a great master and a great master.

If you dare to behave like my Highness, you are impatient.
