After the wine and food were served, Xu Ping raised his glass to Yang Xu, Chong Shiheng, Zhao Yan, Li Jian and Li Shen who were present: "It is easy for you to come from afar, drink a glass of wine first, and the right to wash the dust for you." Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"

After drinking the wine, Xu Ping put down the wine glass and said to everyone: "Why did you come here, it has been clearly explained in the book, if there is anything unclear, you can ask, we will talk while drinking." When the wine and food are used up, you will all live in the back office of the transfer envoy, and write down the rules and regulations of the money village clearly in the past few days, so as not to mistake the deputy envoy Wang to return to Beijing. ”

Chong Shiheng, who was sitting at the bottom, stood up and arched his hand: "Du Cao, the officials have always been not involved much in the affairs of Qianzhuang, but I'm afraid-"

Xu Ping waved his hand: "It's okay, you don't have to participate in writing specific regulations, just take a look at it on the side." If there are any chores on the occasion, such as which accounts to check, you can help. ”

Chong Shiheng agreed and sat back.

Li Shen said with some hesitation: "Ducao, there is no money bank in Mengzhou, although I know the regulations, but I really don't know how to do the money bank, whether it is changed-"

"It's because there is no money bank in Mengzhou, that's why I came to you. How to set up a money bank and how to set up a money bank, no one knows the difference between the two better than you. I came to you to write this distinction and write it clearly. ”

"Xia Guan understands, Xia Guan must do his best!"

Seeing that no one spoke anymore, Xu Ping was about to sit down, and Zhao Yan beside him said: "Yunxing, there is a sentence I don't know if I should ask?" ”

"There are no outsiders sitting here, Xiping has something to say!"

Zhao Yan said: "There are many ways to compile the regulations of the bank. Coping with errands is a kind of arrangement, and if you really want to take it and do it, it is naturally another way to make it. I don't know what kind of Yunxing wants this time? ”

"It's more detailed than the one you really want to do! It is necessary not only to explain clearly the rules and regulations of the bank, but also to explain clearly the benefits of why the bank is set up, so that people who see it can understand at once why and how to set up the bank! ”

Zhao Yan nodded: "If you say so, I will understand that I will not disgrace my mission!" ”

The regulations compiled this time were not only for Chen Zhizhong to cope with errands, but also to prepare for the establishment of a bank in the future. Xu Ping has a hunch that things will fall on his head in the end, and it is best to do things steadily from the beginning. Chen Zhizhong brought the matter to the court for discussion, and no matter what the result was, it was always an ideological controversy.

Full of wine and food, Xu Ping assigned tasks to several people. Yang Xu and Zhao Yan are responsible for all the specific regulations of the bank, and it is necessary to explain clearly how the transfer envoy is managed to how each bank operates. Li Shen was in charge of the influence of Qianzhuang on the people, and from the good and bad aspects, the areas that implemented the Qianzhuang policy and the areas that did not implement the Qianzhuang policy were compared separately. Chong Shiheng was responsible for starting out, participating in the discussion of each link, and at the same time responsible for the necessary contact with other yamen.

In the end, Xu Ping said to Li Jing: "You and I write a preface together, explaining why we set up a money bank, what we have to do to set up a money bank, what we have done, and what we still lack." If so, what to do next. ”

Li Ji stood up and promised.

Xu Ping nodded and asked Li Jian to sit down. This is the person he is optimistic about, the person he brought out single-handedly, and the person who has high hopes, the most core work, Xu Ping took him to complete it. The preamble is actually Xu Ping's overall idea of the financial system in this era, which must have theory and practice, and must be able to explain clearly and make people understand. Xu Ping is not a genius, what he thinks may not be completely correct, and someone must discuss with him and put forward different opinions. Li Jing is a suitable talent, who can not only fully respect Xu Ping's opinions, but also raise these opinions to the level of theory.

After everything was arranged, Xu Ping instructed the officials to clean up the empty courtyard and let everyone move in. In the past few days, I have eaten and lived in that small courtyard, lived together, worked together, and didn't come out until I finished my work.

When he was busy, the public officials came in to communicate, and Wang Gongchen, who was in charge of the field affairs, came.

There is nothing to shy away from Wang Gongchen and Xu Ping, so the public officials directly lead them to the place where everyone gathers.

As the official came in and greeted everyone, Wang Gongchen looked at the table that the official was cleaning up, and asked strangely, "What is today?" How does Du Cao bring people to a banquet here? You don't do much of this kind of thing! ”

Drinking together for officials is the daily routine in this era, and those who are particularly enthusiastic like former Prime Minister Kou Zhun even feast all day long, and even often stay up all night. Most of the positive examples of those who are well-versed in government affairs are to use means to entrap public officials, and at the same time give them enough deterrence to do their best and not dare to deceive. Being able to read all the necessary official documents is already a rare diligent government affairs for officials. Like Xu Ping, who personally handles government affairs, public officials are just hands-on, which is actually very rare. In the eyes of officials, Xu Ping is an outlier who can be appreciated and not imitated.

The more attention is spent on official business, the less time for entertainment is naturally available. No matter where he took office, Xu Ping rarely organized banquets and entertainment for his subordinate officials, and he preferred to send the money in the minister's treasury as welfare in various names. When you can't find money, you will change it to firewood, rice, oil, salt, clothing, shoes and hats. Therefore, as an official under him, there is less food and drink, but there are a lot of benefits in his hands, and it is not disgusting.

It is precisely because of this that Wang Gongchen feels novel. When did Xu Ping open his mind and set up a feast in the yamen.

Xu Ping briefly explained the matter and asked Wang Gongchen: "How can I have time to come to the city today?" ”

Wang Gongchen said: "You have been asking me to plant colorful cotton, and this year is finally a harvest, and I specially sent it to your yamen in person." But as I said, in the past, the cotton produced is colored, but the color is gray, and it is far less vivid than dyed. This is the nature of this crop, and no one can do anything about it, but it's not that I don't care. ”

Xu Ping said with a smile: "I naturally know that cotton can really be grown in colors and bright colors, so I won't specialize in cultivating white cotton." Color cotton has the use of color cotton, and the color is gray and dark at all. ”

After speaking, Xu Ping asked Yang Xuan to lead everyone to live in the small courtyard, and he and Wang Gongchen went to the front courtyard to see the colored cotton transported.

The color of cotton is naturally colorful, and the native cotton species of this era not only have various colors, but even if it is white cotton, it is far from being as white as snow in later generations. The cotton seeds that Xu Ping crossed over were much whiter than all the cotton of this era, and the contrast was particularly obvious when put together. Because it has been specially cultivated over a long period of time to dye it, the more white the cotton, the easier it is to dye it beautifully. The cloth woven from cotton in this era can actually only be dyed in a dark color, and the undyed plain cloth is dim yellow, which is much darker than the old homespun cloth that Xu Ping said in his previous life.

The reason why the cotton cloth in Henan Province is valuable this year is also because of this white color, after dyeing, it is bright and comparable to silk.
