Because of the suspicion of fake silver tickets, Xiangling asked all her stores to accept cash money.

Qinglou Chu Pavilion is easy to say, it is all scattered silver, how can there be a few big spenders like Liu Xiwang, a bag of seventy-three years?

But Zuo Shifang is different, and the merchants from all over the south of the Yangtze River trade, the transaction volume has always been huge, and they are all foreign merchants to come, not to collect cash tickets some strong people difficult, can not all take to the silver temple to exchange silver, that is not "the grass startled the snake"?

Ling Qingyue specially told him not to startle the snake.

The only way is for Xiangling to personally sit in the food shop for cashiering, and she has to find a beautiful excuse to avoid the suspicion of the merchants.

Xiangling was still worried about how to find an excuse to return the fake silver ticket if it was found, but it turned out that there was no fake silver ticket from other places, and all of them were genuine.

Xiangling guessed from this that the person who made the fake silver ticket had just started making fake silver tickets, and it had not been circulated to other places, and the number had not yet expanded to other places.

At this time, Ling Qingyue handed two fake silver tickets to Yun Shoufu, and pointed out the differences pointed out by Xiangling to Yun Shoufu one by one.

The more Yun Shoufu looked at it, the more sad he became, and the more he looked at it, the more angry he became.

The silver tickets exchanged for exchange were implemented by Yun Mubai for more than 40 years, and at the beginning it was the cooperation between Siyin Temple and the Yun family.

After Yun Shoufu left Hubu Shangshu as Shoufu, he retreated bravely and returned all the silver villages to management, and the Yun family wholeheartedly engaged in overseas business.

Unexpectedly, it was handed over in less than five years, and it was made into a miasma by the Ministry of Households, and fake silver tickets were rampant.

The most annoying thing is not that someone dares to fake silver tickets, but that insiders dare to fake silver tickets.

The paper used to produce silver stamps was a special paper researched by Mrs. Yun Su Baiqing that year, which was made by death row prisoners and decorated with a certain amount of decoration for Siyin Temple.

The banknotes of these fake silver bills are real, so it is inferred that this person must be a high-ranking official of the household department who can get the banknotes.

The smell of grass and earth mold on the counterfeit coins that Xiangling smelled was the residual smell of the counterfeit banknotes when the counterfeit banknotes soaked the silver bills in boiled water and buried them in the ground to make them old.

And that pinhole-like thing is the habit left by the condemned prisoners who made counterfeit banknotes when the Yun family was in charge of manufacturing silver tickets, and the pinhole location is directly related to the face value of the silver tickets, and outsiders only think that they are inadvertently left, but in fact it is not completely meaningless.

Ling Qingyue groaned deeply: "This matter is very important, Qingyue did not dare to report it to Cui Shangshu, and reported it to Shoufu first. ”

Yun Mubai nodded and said: "You have done a good job, this matter is too big, I don't know how big the deficit of the treasury is, and it needs to be completely cleared to the bottom, Cui Shangshu is afraid that it will be difficult to stay out of the matter, and if it is the worst, he will also be removed from his post because of unfavorable supervision, and the prince is responsible for supervising the household department, and the emperor is afraid that he will also be angry." ”

One old and one young, groaned at the same time and stopped talking.

After a long time, Yun Mubai said: "This matter, Mrs. arrived home yesterday, how about you and your wife take the time to come and see her these days?" ”

Ling Qingyue was surprised: "Mrs. Yun has arrived home so soon, isn't it still half a month?" ”

After arriving in the capital for so long, the reason why Ling Qingyue and Xiangling have not visited Mrs. Yun is also the same, every spring, the Yun family's overseas trade caravan sets off, and Su Baiqing will go to see them off;

Every year before the return of the caravan before winter, Su Baiqing also went to greet him, and it has been the case for many years, even if he is close to the sixtieth year, he still does not change.

Ling Qingyue nodded and said, "Okay, Xiangling and I will come to visit Mrs. tomorrow." ”

Yun Mubai groaned: "Ling Yue, still don't you want to see a hundred acres?" ”

Ling Qingyue's tone was stagnant, not knowing how to answer.

Yun Mubai shook his head and said, "You don't have to be embarrassed, I understand you and Ling Yue." Back then, your grandfather wanted to move his family back to the fiefdom to seize the military power, and I used Qin Tianjian as a pretext to seal Ling Yue, who was still in the womb, and let her be burdened by fame for the rest of her life. ”

Ling Qingyue sighed and said, "Lord Yun, I talked to an insider about the matter back then, my grandfather's success rate is very low, if it weren't for your intervention, it is likely that the Ling family would have been lost back then." If I had to choose, I would be more than you would have done. ”

Yun Mubai smiled at Ling Qingyue and said, "You are a smart child, in the future, your achievements will not be under me, this time, I will help you and King An build a straight ladder." ”

Yun Shoufu didn't say anything, but stood up and asked eagerly as he walked towards the backyard, "Madame's appetite has recovered a bit?" ”

Ling Qingyue couldn't help but feel a little envious, this Shoufu Lord, who was called by the court officials as unsmiling and calculating, only when facing his wife, did he show joy, anger and sorrow like an eighteen-year-old stunned young man.

Himself, and Xiangling, will definitely be like this.

.

After the morning of the second day, Ling Qingyue took Xiangling to Yunfu.

Except for the slight fatigue on her face, Mrs. Yun was in good spirits.

This time the voyage was Mrs. Yun's second grandson, Yun Hao, who was following the big guy and talking about what he had seen and heard in the countries he had passed through.

He also showed Mrs. Yun all kinds of strange things, such as diamonds, deep-sea corals, and finally showed a firecracker.

Yun Hao said that when he came back from a country, he met a group of people on the road, they were holding this thing, Yun Hao according to his grandmother's explanation, all the unknown was dealt with according to the danger, and he directly threw dozens of fire and thunder bombs, which scared the group away.

I picked up a long rod-like thing, and I didn't know what it was for, so I took it back and wanted to show it to my well-informed grandmother.

Seeing this thing, Su Baiqing and Chu Xiangling stood up in shock at the same time.

Both of them made subconscious movements, and at the same time they glanced at each other, and in each other's eyes, they both saw fear.

Su Baiqing said to his children and grandchildren: "You all go down and leave this thing behind." ”

Ling Qingyue and Xiangling stood up and were about to leave, but Su Baiqing beckoned them and Yun Mubai to stay.

Su Baiqing handed the fire gun to Xiangling and said, "Recognize it?" ”

Chu Xiangling glanced at Yun Mubai, Su Baiqing nodded and said, "Let's say, they all know where we come from." ”

Chu Xiangling nodded and said: "I know, this should be the predecessor of the pistol--- firecracker, according to our current development process, it should not have appeared yet." I didn't expect it to appear so soon. If this continues, Daqi is afraid that one day he will be knocked on the border. ”

Su Baiqing said to Yun Mubai and Ling Qingyue: "This thing has something to do with the fire and thunder bullets I made for you, the fire and thunder bullets are large-area kills, and the pistol can be accurately hit, similar to a neck crossbow, but the range is longer, the speed is faster, and the lethality is greater. ”

Ling Qingyue and Yun Mubai also looked awe-inspiring.

Yun Mubai groaned: "Madam, can this thing be developed?" With it, it is not to invade others, but to make others dare not invade us. ”

Su Baiqing nodded and said, "Yes, but I have to develop it slowly, let Xiangling help me." ”

The two men nodded at the same time, and decided to enter the palace immediately and report the fake silver ticket and fire gun to the Lord Banzai.
