Need for a Guard

Miao Liming pretended to be a grandson for five years, and suffered from supercilious looks. The so-called serfs stood up and sang this day—it wasn’t that he didn’t want to stumble and take control of the bureaucracy, but he was a poor commander who was not loved by his grandma and uncle. If people help him, he can only protect himself wisely, run a business empire secretly, and lie dormant like a snake, waiting for an opportunity to make a move.

Now that Shi Yue has promised, if he doesn't express his opinion, won't he be a fool?Looking at Shi Yue's resolute face, he slapped the table excitedly, and said, "With the words of Vice Minister Shi, I will swear to follow him to the death. From then on, Vice Minister Shi and I will be people of the same path."

Shi Yue laughed loudly: "Miao Shangshu is like a pine bamboo, bent like a bow, straight into a pine, I admire it very much." After speaking, he looked at Xu Tianhong and Zhao Guorong again.

Zhao Guorong clenched his lips for a long time, and said quietly: "I think although Vice Minister Shi has a way to dismantle my platform, he can't let me go any further, right?"

"That's right!"

Shi Yue smiled slightly: "Xiao Tuzi has entrusted you with a heavy responsibility, and you also hold great power. Naturally, I can't give you more power, but what you care most about is not yourself, but the fate of Secretary Xu? The position of the privy envoy has been raised, and we have joined forces to push up the privy envoy Xu, isn't your apprentice also fulfilling your filial piety?"

Xu Tianhong still had a smile on the corner of her mouth when she heard the words, but she leaned forward slightly, revealing the tension deep in her heart.

"Do you have a solution?"

Zhao Guorong narrowed his eyes slightly, as if he didn't quite believe Shi Yue's words, "If you have this ability, I will be grateful, but this is probably just a dream."

Shi Yue said: "You don't believe me?"

"It's not that I don't believe you, but that there is no solution."

Zhao Guorong said: "Men, as a veteran minister, has been suppressed. The prime minister can't do it, the censor can't do it, and the deputy prime minister can't do it. He can only be wronged by the Privy Council. This is luck and cannot be changed by manpower."

"Ha ha……"

Shi Yue smiled heartily: "The privy envoy is already prominent, why bother to move?"

When Zhao Guorong and Xu Tianhong heard the words, a flash of spiritual light flashed in their minds, their eyes were piercing, they looked at Shi Yue, and said in unison: "Vice Minister Shi, please tell me."

Shi Yuedao: "In the earliest days, the cabinet was in charge of the government, the black-clothed town governor was in charge of the army, and the Privy Council was in charge of military situation analysis and formulation of national strategies. It can be said that the cabinet, the black-clothed town governor, and the Privy Council troika supported the big Yan's normal operation, but later, because the Privy Councilor Xu was severely suppressed by Commander Kang and Xiao Yan, the power of the Privy Council was divided into two parts, one part belonged to the Fusi of Heiyiwei Township, and the other part belonged to the Ministry of War of the Cabinet. Existing in name only, now, as long as we all work together to regain the lost rights, won’t Secret Envoy Xu be equally powerful?”

"Exactly! Exactly!"

Xu Tianhong couldn't bear it any longer, stood up and smiled, "Shi Fushilang's words awakened the dreamer, the old man has lived to this age, and finally knows what it means to be afraid of future generations." Looking at Shi Yue with a mean smile on his face , sat down hurriedly again, calmed down, and said: "I am not greedy for power, but I am not convinced. Kang Shan really has military achievements, so let's not mention him for the time being, but why does Xiao Yan ride on my head to do his best? He Is there a fart? The thing I would most like to do in this life is to step on Xiao Yan fiercely, but, the dream is hard to come true, Vice Minister Shi, if you can really do it, I am willing to cooperate with you with all my strength, as long as Xiao Yan is tripped Yan, I am willing to abdicate immediately to give way to Xian."

Shi Yue smiled: "Secretary Xu abdicates, I will definitely recommend Zhao Shangshu to sit on the throne of the Privy Council."

Zhao Guorong was overjoyed, but still remained calm, and said: "As long as Deputy Envoy Shi can help my teacher fulfill his wish, I will be satisfied. As for personal promotion, I don't care much about it."

hypocritical!

Shi Yue secretly scorned in his heart, and then said: "Zhao Shangshu is a filial man with excellent character, if this kind of talent can't take on great responsibilities, is there any reason?"

Zhao Guorong saw that Shi Yue had clarified everything, and combined with each other, the advantages would definitely outweigh the disadvantages, so he finally stood up and bowed to Shi Yue: "All depends on Deputy Shi."

Miao Liming and Xu Tianhong also got up and bowed their hands to Shi Yue, Shi Yue got up and returned the salute, the four looked at each other, clapped their hands and laughed.

*********

The four of them returned to the small hall while talking and laughing happily. At this moment, Kong Liren, Han Yuan, Ouyang Liufeng, and Meng Jiao were exchanging cups with Shang Cai, Zhao Kexin, and Huang Dong.

Seeing Shi Yue and the other four people come in, these people knew that they had reached certain decisions secretly when they saw the friendly smiles on their faces, but they couldn't ask questions casually.

The three of Zhao Guorong and Shi Yue talked and laughed happily, and the atmosphere was extremely harmonious. Finally, they toasted together and said to Shi Yue: "Vice Minister Shi, from now on, we will be friends."

Miao Liming also said: "Vice Minister Shi has any orders, but it's okay to say."

Xu Tianhong leaned on the old to sell the old, and laughed loudly: "Nephew, please say hello to Bai Yushi for me."

Shi Yue also said with pride: "My lords, everything is in the wine, let's drink this together..." The banquet ended.

On the second day, Shang Cai, Zhao Kexin, and Huang Dong came to Tianyi No. [-] in a fair manner, and discussed business with Kong Liren and Han Yuan.

An earth-shattering commercial change kicked off.

Qingfengtang, Wanjiazhai, and Degaoshe all contributed 100 million taels of silver and injected it into Tianyihao to become a shareholder of Tianyihao. From then on, they were bound together with Tianyihao.

What is even more shocking is that Qingfengtang, Wanjiazhai, Degaoshe, Tianyihao, as well as the Kongjia, Mengjia, and Hanjia companies each contributed 100 million taels of silver to form a bank called Tianyi Bank. It's a new thing—as for what this bank is for, those businessmen don't even know it.

However, Shangcai, Zhao Kexin, and Huang Dong knew very well that once a bank was born on this day, those violent industries such as money banks and pawn shops would probably decline from now on.

Banks, of course, want to make a living out of lending, and they do so for everyone.

However, Tianyi Bank was weak at the beginning and did not absorb more funds. It could not face ordinary people, but only faced high-end and large creditors. It slowly operated and gradually formed its influence.

The first expenditure of Tianyi Bank was lent to the Black Clothes Guards for the expansion of armaments - this kind of loan from the bank by the Zhenfu Department is really new, if it is not for Shi Yue's guarantee, no one will Dare to take such a risk.

In fact, Shi Yue has long-term plans.

The Black Yiwei borrowed money from the bank, and the Ministry of Industry collected taxes from Tianyi No. [-] and Tianyi Bank, which were affiliated with the Gewuyuan. A bank, such a reincarnation cycle, the black guard expanded his army with money, and Tianyi Bank can also operate normally, and with this brand, it will attract more companies to deposit money into Tianyi Bank.

This kind of model has never been seen before, and Shang Cai, Kong Liren and others have to admire Shi Yue's innate sense of smell.

When Liu Dianzhong heard these series of news, he was so anxious that hemorrhoids developed on his buttocks, and his mouth was full of fire bubbles.
