The terrain around Weijialing is extremely dangerous, there is a mountain named Motianling here, which is the traffic pass of Hexi Mongolia into Liaodong Capital. During the Tianshun period, the Liaodong Metropolitan Division set up a pass in Weijialing, and set up a thousand households, which has been more than 150 years.

The current garrison of the Weijialing Thousand Households Office is Chen Dadao, a native of Tieling, who is a small fellow of Li Chengliang, the commander of the Liaodong Metropolitan Command. Before being transferred to Weijialing as a garrison, Chen Dadao was the fourth son of Li Chengliang and the general of Yansui under Li Ruzhang.

After Li Ruzhang's death, Chen Dadao trusted his relationship and was transferred back to Liaodong from Yansui, and later somehow got through Li Rubaimen Road, who lived in Tieling's hometown, and got the position of Weijialing's garrison.

Thanks to the blessing that the Li family attaches importance to, this time, Wei Liangchen was greeted by Chen Dadao.

And, as soon as he settled down, Wei Liangchen received a generous gift from Chen Dadao - three hundred taels of silver tickets issued by Shenyang Deshun Qianzhuang, plus a pair of Dongzhu and a century-old ginseng.

This made Wei Liangchen smile, he was an official for thousands of miles just for money, although he regarded money as dung, but that was when he was rich. When you don't have money, it's all good.

Because it was the first time to receive a gift, Liangchen was inevitably uneasy, and he didn't even know how to deal with the giver, and his face was a little red.

The most important thing is that Liangchen doesn't know why this garrison gave him a gift. You must know that he basically enjoys the "white-eyed" treatment along the way. If it weren't for the fact that the prefect of Jinzhou recognized him as a deputy envoy and gave him a post bar where he could eat and live for nothing, I'm afraid he would have to find a way to sell a horse to save the emergency.

Taking people's money and eliminating disasters for others, Liangchen is very aware of this, and he feels that if Chen Dadao's request is not too much, he will be reluctant to help others.

However, Chen Dadao did not ask for anything, which made Liangchen very embarrassed, and he didn't know whether to accept this gift or not.

Fortunately, Chen Dadao is a familiar hand in this area, and after shoehorning the "gift" into Wei Liangchen, he gave his hand and said goodbye, without saying a word.

This made Liangchen breathe a sigh of relief, and at the same time adapted a lot, but he became more and more confused, so he consulted Li Yongzhen.

Liangchen did not hide it from Li Yongzhen, and frankly admitted that Chen Shoubei sent him money.

After Li Yongzhen heard this, he smiled: "This garrison, I'm afraid that his hands and feet are not clean, and I'm afraid that you will check his money and food expenses, so he will spend money to eliminate disasters." ”

"It seems that my errand of helping to organize the arrears of money and food is not without benefit."

Liangchen laughed, he found that he had overlooked one of the biggest problems and the biggest treasure, that is, although he was only a miscellaneous Eight Rank and Two Palaces, he also had a task, that is, to assist in the arrears of money and grain in Liaodong.

This errand can be big or small, whether it can be done or not, it all depends on what Wei Liangchen does.

Of course, he also has a positive envoy Yang Hao on his head, all dynasties, past and present lives, no matter what official he is, as long as he is a deputy position, there is basically not much to do. It's like a staff officer who doesn't have a commander and doesn't fart loudly.

However, the problem is that although Yang Hao was reinstated by Wanli, he was not directly responsible to the emperor. He Wei Liangchen, although the official is small, he can report directly to the emperor.

It has been more than half a month since the military mutiny at Guanmen, and it is foreseeable that the information about his Wei Liangchen has probably spread all over Liaodong.

Liangchen didn't believe that Wanli's inner court could play a role in secrecy. He Wei Liangchen is just afraid that someone will find out.

Judging from the time, when Liangchen first arrived at the gate and went out of the gate to the north, the leaders of the army in Liaodong did not know his details, and even did not know his existence, so he enjoyed all the white eyes along the way, and no one paid attention to him.

Now, the gang knew that the emperor had sent a young man out of the customs, so the spring of his Weishe people came.

Why did the prefect of Jinzhou recognize him, why did Li Rumei send Shen Lian to escort him, and why did the garrison of Weijialing give him a gift, isn't it because he, a housekeeper, also has the errand of a deputy envoy, and at the same time, he can directly report to the emperor.

After figuring out the problem, the conscience of the minister will be activated, and he will not really investigate the money and grain in Liaodong, it will be a bottomless pit at all, and whoever investigates will be unlucky.

Liangchen is sure that even if Yang Hao is out of the customs this time, most of them will go through the motions, at most get a few small fish and shrimp to come out and explain to the court.

Big fish, he didn't dare to move, and he couldn't move.

Gao Huai's status in the emperor's heart is heavier than that of Yang Hao, and as a result, he was majestic for ten years, and once became a prisoner.

Moreover, the mutinous sergeant's appeal to the court was that Gao Huaike withheld their money and food, and you, the envoy of the imperial court, did not check Gao Huai, but checked their "bitter masters".

The good minister will never go to the troubled masters, and he can't afford to provoke these people now.

The purpose of his request to Wanli to go to Fushun was not to help Gao Huai repay the money, but to meet the old slave for a while in the name of Nurhachi to ask for money, and by the way, to see if there was a chance to do something for him to add to the blockage.

Now, because of Brother Dong, the conscience of the minister is even more "poisonous".

Nominally, Donggo was Nurhachi's wife. Although she has not been married, the marriage contract is there. Otherwise, Nurhachi would not have regarded the remarriage of Dongge as a major sin of the Ming Dynasty when he raised the army.

Calculated carefully, he Wei Liangchen is the two future emperors of Green, plus a traitor leader, the founder of the puppet dynasty.

This is greener than Gu Tianle, and Zhang Jiahui is green.

There is nothing more exciting in the world than going green and killing him again.

So from the very beginning, Wei Liangchen didn't take this co-organizer deputy envoy seriously. But he doesn't take it seriously, someone takes it seriously.

No, Chen Dadao came to spend money to eliminate the disaster.

Three hundred taels is a huge amount of money for Liangchen, but in Yang Hao's eyes, I'm afraid it's not worth his extra look.

This point, Liangchen can't be compared, and his identity is there.

However, no matter how little money is, it is money.

After Li Yongzhen left, Liangchen sat under the lamp and put three hundred taels of silver tickets on the table, just like looking at red tickets in his previous life, which was very emotional.

A man who treats money like dung certainly doesn't have feelings for dung.

What makes Liangchen emotional is the Deshun Money Village behind the silver ticket.

Regarding the circulation of silver in the Ming Dynasty as an official currency, Liangchen has some understanding. During the orthodox years, because of the depreciation of treasure banknotes, the Ming Dynasty had no choice but to relax the ban on the use of silver, and since then, silver has been openly circulated in the market as currency. Until then, silver had never been the official currency of any Chinese dynasty.

Copper is.

Since then, due to the huge and complex private money in the Ming Dynasty, the copper coins are of different weights and colors, and the price difference between the money, private money, and white money is very large, and there are many changes, which has stimulated the private exchange industry. With the development of the private exchange industry, there are shops specializing in the exchange of copper coins, that is, money shops, also called money shops, money banks, and even money stalls.

In big cities, in all the carriages and horses in important places of water and land transportation, and even near the city gates, you can see a stall everywhere in the group of vendors who pass by to exchange money. This is to exchange small money, and big money must be in the silver account of the bank.

For example, this Shenyang Deshun Money Village, in addition to the village Ming quota on the silver ticket it issued, there is also a small line of advertisements printed on the side and tail. To the effect that Deshun Money Bank not only operates a money exchange business, but also provides loan services and cash withdrawal business.

Loan service, of course, is to lend money. Withdrawing money with a voucher is a very advanced financial service, that is, a person deposits a fixed amount of money in a bank, and then the bank will issue a confidential name sticker, one or more for him. In the future, no matter who it is, as long as you hold your name and paste it to the bank, you can directly get the money with the money without going through any formalities.

As can be seen from the content of this service, this business is specially provided for dignitaries.

One of the most authoritative and trouble-free services for bribery and bribery.

I'm really not afraid that you can't do it, I'm afraid that you can't think of it.

The fact that a money bank located outside the customs can provide so many business services is not what the germ of capitalism is.

The rise of the bank and the more services it provides, the more it shows that at present, the circulation of the commodity economy has been quite large-scale, otherwise, there would not be so many "financial derivatives".

And if the development of the commodity economy continues, it will inevitably be capitalism.

This means that without Jiannu, the Ming Dynasty would have entered a capitalist society much faster than the West.

Which doctrine is good, Liangchen is not interested, he has only one thought in his mind now.

There is a money bank, there is a loan business, so, what about the lottery?

If there is no Liaokou salary, salary, or training salary in the future, there are only lottery tickets such as Liaodong Pingkou tickets, Liaodong Dangkou Cai, and Liaodong military and civilian construction love welfare tickets, or Pingkou treasury bonds, third-line funds or something.

Is it possible to reduce the burden on the peasants, so that the Ming Dynasty will not be swallowed up by the flames of the peasant uprising?

At present, the gambling style in the Ming Dynasty is very prosperous, and the land south of the Yangtze River is especially crazy.

Human nature is a good gamble.

Even the current emperor Wanli is said to be very fond of gambling money.

Under the light, Liangchen's eyes were full of energy.

Suddenly, he put the silver ticket away, then took out a pen and paper, and after careful consideration, put down the pen and began his daily report.

The first sentence at the beginning of today's report is: "Your Majesty, the minister received a sum of money on your behalf today, and the person who gave the gift was the garrison of Weijialing Pass..."
