I Build an Aircraft Carrier in the Ming Dynasty

In the end, the military reluctantly proceeded.

They finally got a budget of 47 million taels, 8 million taels less than planned.

This result is definitely not satisfactory to the people below, but this is the result of their best efforts.

To reach the 47 million quota, the military then began to quarrel internally.

Because there are different departments within the military.

The army, the navy, and the logistics are the three major departments. The air force is still too weak and has no qualifications to speak, and it is directly affiliated to the army.

The differences between the logistics department and the front-line troops are actually not big, mainly the battle between land and water.

"Three million, is your army sending beggars?"

In the military department, after Wu Yi heard the distribution plan, he immediately became anxious.

As a major arm, they can't even share 10% of their budget.

If he accepts this result, the generals of the navy, big and small, will be dissatisfied with him.

In this position, if you don't sit for a year, you have to get out.

"Commander Wu, calm down, three million is already a lot. If you want to blame it, the bastards of the civil servants are too cruel, and they gave us eight million taels less."

Although Wu Yi's navy was not as good as an army in number, his position and status far exceeded that of the army commander, and he could vaguely be on an equal footing with Li Shaobin and the others.

Therefore, the people in the military had no choice but to comfort him very politely.

"Why did you agree to give eight million less?"

Wu Yi asked back.

"Old Wu, calm down first. There's nothing we can do. If we don't agree, we can't keep dragging it on. What's the point of that other than making your Majesty unhappy?"

Li Shaobin advised.

"Then I can't control it. If you don't deduct it from your army, don't expect to hit my navy's idea. Next year, my navy needs to build ten ocean-going warships and twenty troop transport ships to meet the needs of coastal operations.

Therefore, next year, the military expenditure of my navy will be at least 6 million. If it is less than this number, there is no negotiation. "

Wu Yi's words are very absolute, but he does have difficulties.

As maritime trade prospered, their navy became more and more tasked.

Moreover, when they attack the Longwu regime in the south in the future, their navy will definitely assist the army to undertake the heavy task of transporting troops and logistics. Without investment, without enough ships, they can't accomplish such a task.

Moreover, in the words of Wu Changqing, the navy will be the main force in the future, and the navy will rely on the world to conquer the world.

In order to realize His Majesty's ambition, their navy now needs to plan ahead for development.

"What you said, isn't the army's task less important?"

Li Shaobin complained.

"If you think it's too little, you can go to the civil servants to make trouble, and you can make as much trouble as you can."

In the end, Li Shaobin found a way for Wu Yi and asked him to toss the civil servants.

Of course, Wu Yi would not be so stupid to go to the civil servants. The two sides have always disliked each other. How could it be possible to cut the flesh after an agreement has been reached? It is definitely impossible.

Wu Yi thought about it, and felt that he had to go to Wu Changqing's place to make trouble and complain.

Budget disputes in the military are relatively small, after all, there is only a battle between the army and the navy.

In the civil service system, they fought fiercely, even more fiercely than when they fought with the military.

Eight or nine departments were united when they fought with the army before.

In the end, it was not even a day before these departments were clamoring for a fight. It's a mess.

"Mr. Ruan, I think you are confused. The total budget is 53 million yuan, divided by eight departments, and your work department costs 45 million yuan."

Qian Taoli immediately started scolding, and it was Ruan Dacheng that the lion opened his mouth, and the asking price was outrageous.

"Master Qian, what do you mean? What are eight departments? Co-authoring our inspectorate is not a department in the eyes of Master Qian, right?"

Liu Shijin complained.

Among the many departments, his Inspectorate does not belong to the Sixth Department and is easily overlooked.

Unfortunately, no one paid attention to Liu Shijin, and the firepower of many bigwigs was still concentrated on Ruan Dacheng.

After all, what Ruan Dacheng robbed was their money.

Ruan Dacheng's cheeks are thick enough, and he doesn't care if he is ridiculed and scolded by everyone. Anyway, he just made a huge asking price first, and then he could just sit down and pay back the money.

"Everyone must know the importance of the Ministry of Industry. Why is the tax soaring this year, not because of those factories? If you put money into the factory for a year, the benefits will be doubled, and if you invest it in the fields, will the tax increase by 10%? Can investing in the Inspectorate generate a profit?"

Ruan Dacheng said calmly.

"Yes, it's better for our Inspectorate to not have a penny, so that we can't keep the worms in your Ministry of Work."

Liu Shijin cursed.

"That's right, my household department doesn't even want a penny, let all the people go to the factory, and everyone will eat iron together in the future."

Qian Taoli followed with an angry remark.

He didn't have anything else to say if he didn't say anything angry, after all, what Ruan Dacheng said was the truth.

Putting money into the Ministry of Industry, the output benefits are much higher than other departments.

"Master Ruan, you can't say that. Didn't your Majesty say that we need to develop in a balanced way and support agriculture? Only when people have money can they drive consumption, and only people can buy things produced in factories.

If the other classes have no money, the factory produces too much stuff and can only be piled in the corner. In His Majesty's words, this is called overcapacity. "

Hong Chengchou has a deeper understanding of the economy than others, and the reasons for his rebuttal are also well-founded.

Everyone heard the words and expressed their approval again and again. They have now temporarily united to suppress Ruan Dacheng.

"The problem is that it's still a long way from overcapacity. Even if it can't be digested domestically, there are still a large number of overseas markets."

Ruan Dacheng is not an ignorant person, one after another.

Everyone continued to argue, no matter what Ruan Dacheng said, everyone refused to agree to his request.

Of course, Ruan Dacheng didn't really want so much.

He saw that the time was almost ripe, and then said: "Well, then I will suffer a little bit, less, 40 million is enough."

His words made everyone speechless again, and this was only reduced by five million, which was of no use.

"Don't dream, the Ministry of Industry has a maximum of 30 million this year. Your department accounts for 60%, so be content."

Qian Taoli also stated his bottom line.

Given the importance of the Ministry of Work, it is acceptable to give 30 million to the Ministry of Work.

After all, the Ministry of Industry is a beast of gold, and other departments spend relatively less.

"What can you do with 30 million yuan? A Jiangnan Iron and Steel Plant costs 10 million yuan. Together, we will only open three factories next year? Not to mention that the railway will be built next year. The 30 million yuan is not enough to plug the teeth."

Ruan Dacheng said urgently.

"We'll talk about the railway later. The so-called locomotive has not been seen yet. Who knows when it will be available."

Gu Yanwu said.
