Fortunately, Yang was prepared and calmly coped with this matter. Although there are high-level officials like Zuo Yushi who sue their "own people", fortunately, they have already had a good foundation and calmly responded to it, and did not let this matter cause a catastrophe.

Seeing that the courtiers' minds were not on the matter of usury, they knew that they had passed the test. He searched the ministers with his eyes to see if he was suspected of committing a crime.

After a glance, I still didn't find anyone suspicious, only the left Yushi had a black face, and he looked very aggrieved.

If he did it, it would be impossible for him to come out and sue this matter in court, at least he had to instruct others to do it, and he would stand aside and beat the drum.

"Zhongqing, is there anything else to play?" Yang reform, who was lucky enough to pass the test, is ready to continue the discussion.

The minds of the ministers were no longer on this morning, and they all flew to what the emperor just said, and they were all thinking about how to deal with this matter.

After asking for a long time, no one came out to speak, Yang Reform felt that today's early dynasty could be over, and said: "Since you have nothing else to do, then today, let's stop here." Well, I remembered one thing, after saying this, let's disperse the dynasty...... "Yang Reform is ready to disperse the dynasty."

The ministers looked at the emperor curiously, not knowing what the emperor was going to say.

"Companion, send all those things......" Yang Gai prepared a small gift today, in order to "bribe" the minister, when dealing with usury himself, if he is at a disadvantage, or when he is relatively stiff with the ministers, he will use this to ease the relationship with the ministers. But I didn't expect that today's rhetoric was so powerful, and the left Yushi was defeated, and the ministers didn't have much heart to fight with themselves, and ended hastily, this gift used to "bribe" the minister was not needed, but this gift had to be given out, because this is not only a gift, but also a good opportunity to do publicity.

Wang Chengen received the order, and soon, a group of little eunuchs came up with some plates, and when they opened the yellow cloth, they saw that there was a gadget inside. In the middle is glass, and the outside of the glass is wrapped in silver, and at one end of this circle, there is a handle. This is Yang Reform's magnifying glass, and at present, it is going to be used as a primary glasses.

The courtiers looked at the strange thing on the plate and wondered what it was.

Some people recognized it at a glance, and this was made of glass that had been making a lot of noise recently.

"Your Majesty, this thing is made of glass from Liuli Zhai?" A minister is very knowledgeable, and he quickly saw the origin of this magnifying glass, looking at the material, it is exactly the same as glass!

"Hehe, yes, this Qing family has good eyesight, recently this glass made by Liulizhai, you are afraid that you have also heard of it, this magnifying glass, is made of glass, has a magical function, you Qing family, you might as well pick one up, take a look, you will understand the magic of this magnifying glass." To make this primary glasses a fashionable item, an indispensable thing for the elderly literati, and to make this magnifying glass a symbol of identity and status, therefore, Yang Reform in this Jinluan Palace, vigorously promote his magnifying glass. If it weren't for the fact that this Liulizhai was his own, Yang Reform would have eaten enough to support it, and he would have worked so hard to promote this thing.

The ministers picked up the contents of the plate one after another and looked at it, and as soon as they picked it up, they all exclaimed incredulity. The magical side of this magnifying glass shocked these natives of the Ming Dynasty, and Yang Reform saw it in his eyes, and he was secretly proud in his heart.

"Well, I said it was magical, and I was right." Yang Gai said with a smile.

A minister is really curious about what kind of magnifying glass this is, how can it have such a function, through it, this small thing suddenly becomes larger in front of his eyes, and at this moment, he can see clearly and understand a lot. Immediately, he said: "Your Majesty, this thing is really magical, through it, the minister found that observing subtle things, can see very clearly, this, it's incredible!" ”

The ministers are also discussing, what kind of magnifying glass is this, it is indeed rare, it can be regarded as a treasure. They all said that this magnifying glass is a good thing.

"Huh, huh? This Qing family is right, this magnifying glass, does have this function, can make subtle, unclear things bigger, see clearly, this function, let me think, many Qing family is old, this for the country, it will inevitably fall into an old dizzy problem, this I also promote the writing of small characters, save paper, which has caused some trouble for the Qing family, for this reason, I am also very troubled, so, I think about it, this magnifying glass, can it be used as a special tool to watch small print, For those who are worried about reading small print? I tried it, and I thought it was okay, and it was indeed possible to make the small characters bigger and easier to read, so I specially asked Liulizhai to pay a lot of tribute and give it to the Qing family, so as to solve the problem of many ministers in the court having difficulty reading words...... "Yang reformed a fool, in order to let the courtiers promote this commodity for themselves, and lay the foundation for the real glasses in the future."

A group of ministers heard that the emperor in order to relieve the trouble of reading small characters, deliberately let people pay tribute, many people are in tears, the emperor to promote the writing of small characters, paper, pen and ink is saved, however, their eyes, also unlucky, the previous brush words, big one by one, no matter how bad the eyes, but also see, the emperor writes small characters, this eye is not good, now listen to the emperor said this, at the moment, there are many old ministers and old tears, this emperor, or very good at caring about people! Sell your life to the emperor, it's worth it!

"Thank you for Your Majesty's care, the old minister is old, this is a small word, it is indeed difficult, to be so cared for by Your Majesty, the minister is really speechless, can only thank Your Majesty for your gift...... Minister Xie Lord Longen...... "One of the old ministers, since the emperor implemented the writing of small characters, this exchange of official documents, writing small characters has gradually increased, his eyes, day by day is getting worse and worse, seeing things more and more difficult, so that he has the idea of returning to his hometown, and now suddenly there is this treasure, can make small characters into big characters, solve their own troubles, then they can not do it for a few more years, and now they will be full of tears to thank the emperor, thank you for this treasure, and save your official career.

Some of the other ministers originally wanted to refrain from this thing, in order to prove that they were not dazzled and dizzy, and when they saw this old guy praising the emperor and this thing with tears, they didn't say anything, the emperor gave something, how much to give some face, didn't he?

"Hehe, since that's the case, then the Qing family will take one, it can be regarded as a gift from me, and you can better work for the state in the future." Yang Gengai smiled and gave away his own gifts, and gave away what he was selling.

The old tearful minister took a magnifying glass and kept wiping his tears.

"Well, all the Qing families, take one if you are sixty years old, if you are not sixty years old, you will find it difficult to read small characters, you can also take one, this thing is a small gift prepared for you and your family, don't shirk, um...... Okay, that's it...... "Yang Reform quickly sent his gift out, this sent out, this Ming officialdom, this magnifying glass, has become a symbol of identity and status, in the future, to sell this glasses, I am afraid that I have to use a basket to hold gold!

The ministers were still hesitating, whether to take a magnifying glass, whether to take such a treasure, a magical object, this takes, it seems that his old eyes are dizzy, if he doesn't take it, his heart is itching, and now the emperor said so, then take it, no matter how bad it is, this magnifying glass is also a magical treasure. Even if you don't have to look at the words, it's a great thing, and it's also a tribute, and outside, I'm afraid that there is no place to buy it, and you can show off your family when you take it home.

Many of the ministers are old, each has a magnifying glass, and many of them are still "light", and they also took one, anyway, the emperor said, I feel that those who are difficult to read can take it, and I don't take it for nothing, so the batch of magnifying glasses prepared by Yang Reform was suddenly snatched up.

Yang Reform was secretly happy, and said that he would get money in the future, but it was all up to these guys to promote himself!

After the dynasty was dispersed, as soon as Yang Reform came out of Taihemen, he said to Wang Chengen: "Big companion, go and invite the two masters, Bi Ziyan, the household servant, I have something to say." ”

Although the matter of usury by the Guozijian has been dealt with, this matter is not over, and the matter of changing the silver into silver bills and using bills must be carried out, which must be discussed with people.

"Yes, Your Majesty, the slave and maid will go." Wang Chengen agreed to come down and immediately asked people to invite these people.

Platform.

Here, Yang Reform didn't come often, in the past, he had only abused Yuan Chonghuan here, abused Yuan Chonghuan to the point that his body was incomplete, and abused Yuan Chonghuan so much that he buried himself at home all day long thinking about countermeasures, and didn't dare to go out.

Sun Chengzong, Xu Guangqi, Bi Ziyan, these own descendants will come soon.

After a courtesy, Yang Reform didn't talk nonsense, and went directly to the topic.

"I am calling the two masters and Bi Aiqing to come today, there is one thing I want to talk to you about and see what you think."

Sun Chengzong took the lead and said, "What's the matter with Your Majesty?" Just ask, and the ministers will say everything. ”

"Well, this matter, the matter of the state eunuch lending usury, is true,...... Li Ruolian was asked by me to lend usury, and someone is obstructing this matter, but I don't know who it is for the time being,......" Yang Reform explained the cause and effect of this incident.

Several people were also surprised! I originally thought that the emperor asked someone to do this, but I knew that someone was obstructing this matter, but fortunately, the emperor found out in time, otherwise, once this matter was involved, the emperor didn't please it, and they didn't want to please. Even Sun Chengzong is afraid that he will be charged with poor teaching.

"I don't want to pursue this matter for the time being, and I tell you that I want you to be more careful and take precautions." Yang Reform's mind is not to pursue this matter now, but to think about how to popularize this bill business and get the central bank up, which is his current focus. I crossed over by myself, not playing hide and seek with others, and finished the game of cat and mouse.

Bi Ziyan listened to the emperor's words, and sweated on his forehead, this Li Ruolian lent money in the Guozijian, he was the promoter of it, he just wanted to facilitate the household department, so that the household department could collect the silver as soon as possible, where I knew, this matter, someone actually contributed to it, think about it, but also afraid, if the emperor didn't find out early, one shoulder, today, I am afraid that I will not be able to eat and walk around.

Yang Gengai looked at several of his henchmen, and his descendants lowered their heads, and said: "Let him go over this matter, the important thing now is to talk about the bill business I said in the court, and the matter of using silver bills instead of silver to pay, I think this matter is very beneficial, if it is done well, you can change a lot of silver out of thin air for the court." "The focus of Yang's reform now is to prepare for the launch of bill business and engage in a central bank.

This bill exchange business, in ancient times, is not without examples, such as the TV series "Qiao's Courtyard", which is talking about the bill business, and it is Huitong the world [Hehe, the example has not happened yet, but for the 21st century, it is also ancient]. What Yang Reform wants is to engage in Qiao Zhiyong's set in this Ming Dynasty, engage in the world, and then use paper money to replace small amounts of currency, complete the currency paper, this, their own reserves, reserve silver, you can issue more than one or two times the banknote, this, out of thin air, you can change more than double the silver, if your reputation is good enough, it is also possible to issue three or four times the banknote, this is a currency amplifier. Very powerful gold finger.

The emperor's topic is very heavy, and the involvement is too great, just now in the court, no one said its advantages or disadvantages, the reason is that it is too wide, and there is no precedent, which makes the Ming Dynasty people who are used to finding answers from precedents very uncomfortable.

Sun Chengzong, Xu Guangqi and Bi Ziyan were also silent for a long time and did not speak.

Although Sun Chengzong had some understanding of internal affairs and money, his main energy was still on the military.

Xu Guangqi paid more attention to internal affairs, money matters, thought for a long time, saw that Sun Chengzong did not seem to be ready to speak, but also understood the division of labor between himself and Sun Chengzong in the eyes of the emperor, Sun Chengzong is in charge of the military, he is in charge of internal affairs and money, is the emperor's right-hand man, this matter, involving the issue of money, he is ready to speak first.

"Your Majesty, the minister thought about it for a while, and felt that this matter, the stake is too important, this is the use of silver tickets instead of silver, the benefits are obvious, this does not need to consider the problem of silver fineness, nor does it need to consider the weight of silver, but the disadvantages are also obvious, how to ensure that the silver ticket is reliable? If you lose or damage a silver ticket, that's a lot of money! Although there are also people who use silver tickets now, but after all, there are not many, once the court uses silver tickets, the ministers are afraid that it is not safe! Once turbulent, the consequences are out of control! ...... "Xu Guangqi said what he could say, and there were more practical problems that he didn't say, now not only the household department, but even the emperor doesn't have much money, this thing, Xu Guangqi calculated it a little, the whole country is spreading, what kind of bank or money bank needs to prepare the silver, I'm afraid it has to be calculated with a large amount, this court is poor and famous, and the emperor is not very rich, how to do such a thing?" When the time comes, as soon as others run on it, it will immediately be a storm.

Losing a silver ticket is a lot of silver, Yang Reform is very much in favor of this, thinking that in the 21st century, there have been rumors on the Internet that the country is ready to give out a thousand yuan, some people have said, pick up a piece is a month's salary, some people retort, if you drop one, a month's salary will be gone. Moreover, a month's salary is only a piece of paper, and I really don't feel like I can count it, and I feel that I am not worth it.

Yang Gengai nodded, and then turned his gaze at the other two.

Sun Chengzong saw that it was his turn to speak, and said: "Your Majesty, the minister wants to ask Your Majesty, if this court uses a silver ticket, then who should issue this silver ticket?" Is it the government of various places? What should be done if the government or the court issues a silver ticket but does not cash in the full amount of silver? In other words, who should keep the treasury silver that should be kept by the imperial court and local governments? ”

Sun Chengzong's question can be regarded as the core of the problem. Traditionally, the taxes and the income of the government are collected and transferred by the local government to the central household department. The household department can't accept a lot of notes! He couldn't buy anything for this note.

Bi Ziyan also said: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that Lord Sun is right, this was originally kept by various local governments, and the treasury silver paid and taxed, if the silver ticket is used, who should fill it in?" Who will guarantee the full and timely payment? ”

"This, what I want is to set up a bank, that is, the money bank, just like Li Ruolian is doing now, let this bank be responsible for the cashing and distribution of this silver bill, as much silver as it is deposited, it will be issued, and it will not go through the hands of the magistrate, the treasury silver of the magistrate, the income or something, is still managed by the magistrate, but the silver that should be paid to the higher yamen, or the silver that should be paid to the household department, can use the silver bills, so as to avoid the trouble of transporting silver from the government in various places......" Yang Reform threw out his own thoughts. Qiao Zhiyong in "Qiao's Courtyard", there is no central bank, and there is no strong support from the imperial court, so he can handle the taxes that should be paid into Beijing from all over the country, and he can handle the huge amount of money remitted to other places.

The emperor's words made these people think deeply, this matter sounds really fresh, and it is also rare, and at this moment, I really can't think of any good way.

After being silent for a long time, Xu Guangqi said: "Your Majesty, the minister has not yet considered it maturely, and he does not dare to make appropriate comments on His Majesty's ideas, but the minister feels that this pilot project done by His Majesty is indeed very good, why don't Your Majesty first put the bank's affairs and let Li Ruolian's money bank run first, and let the household department give a certain amount of cooperation, and there is no need to promulgate it, formulate any precedents, form a system, and do not need to immediately implement it in the entire Ming Dynasty, now it can be implemented on a small scale, and when you have enough experience, It's not too late to promote, and now when I talk about this, I really don't dare to draw conclusions! ”

Xu Guangqi is telling the truth, whether this silver is good or bad, how many loopholes there are, what are the shortcomings, what are the places to pay attention to, this, without a process of groping, I don't dare to draw any conclusions at all, now, everything is still unknown. The more practical problem is that the imperial court and Huang Yanjing have no money and cannot be spread. This matter, Xu Guangqi can only rot in his stomach now, afraid that if he says it, the emperor will feel uncomfortable, vomit sullenly, and have a lot of troubles, as far as this matter is concerned, it is a good thing, but unfortunately, he has not been caught!

Sun Chengzong also said: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that Zixian is reasonable, Your Majesty is now a little impatient to fully implement this system, and there is no experience, if there is a mistake, it will be troublesome, why not simply, don't mention the formation of a system, let Li Ruolian's money bank try to run for a period of time, accumulate some enough experience, and then say, this, as long as Your Majesty and the household department say it, and cooperate with it, this, it is much simpler......" Sun Chengzong also felt that this matter, The safest thing is to conduct a small-scale experiment first, and as for whether it succeeds or not, it depends on how much experience Li Ruolian has accumulated.

Yang Gai fell into deep thought, and his two masters advised themselves to be cautious, careful, not to be in a hurry, to take their time, and to talk about small-scale trial runs first.

Bi Ziyan also said: "Your Majesty, the minister also feels reasonable, now, as long as the household department and Li Ruolian's money bank have a good docking, there is no need to formulate any strict system, and there is no need to change the existing system, in this way, it is much simpler, after the future, you can gradually explore the experience, and prepare for the comprehensive launch in the future......

The three of them persuaded themselves not to worry, they could let Li Ruolian's money bank run first, as long as they reached an agreement with the household department, it was okay to dock, this, it was quite simple, it did not involve local officials, personnel, changes in systems, etc., and the resistance should not be so big. It should be doable.

Yang Reform nodded, he didn't want to implement this central bank all at once, nor did he plan to roll it out all at once, as for this matter, it was completely to divert the attention of the ministers and cover up the mistakes of his "team". In order to keep his team, he deliberately said, in fact, he also wants to start a small-scale, small-scale trial operation for a period of time, and gradually develop and expand this, so it is more natural, and suddenly layout bank outlets across the country. I want to open a nationwide bank, and the reserves of this bank are enough for me to drink a pot.

"Alas...... I think the same way, so let Li Ruolian connect with the household department first, and first try to see how the bank operates, develop slowly, and accumulate some experience,...... Bi Aiqing, household docking, this, no problem, right? You're a tobe squire! "Yang Reform can only use his own people to do this.

(To be continued)
