Da Ming started to ascend the throne

Chapter 1007 Qian Wanli

Ah Qing looked around, but found nothing unusual, got up and went to the door and said to the captain of the royal guard:

"My Lord asked you to come in for dinner, so give me some inspiration."

"Yes, thank you sir!"

The twelve royal guards thanked Ah Qing, then entered Fandu, and sat down at the two tables next to Zhu Youjian. In addition, the table of Qinglong and the others happened to surround Zhu Youjian.

The two proprietresses are a beautiful woman in her 30s. Seeing so many guests, she immediately smiled.

She came to Zhu Youjian with the menu and smiled:

"Guest officer, which one do you order? Although the small shop is not a big hotel, the taste of the food will definitely not be bad."

While talking, two beautiful waitresses came over to pour tea for Zhu Youjian and the others, all with sweet smiles on their pretty faces.

In ancient times, it was hard to imagine such a situation. Beautiful girls like this in the city basically embroidered or did something at home, and it was impossible to show their faces, unless it was a girl working on a farm or a woman in a brothel.

All of this will only appear after the implementation of the New Deal of the Ming Dynasty. They can come out and do what they want to do, just like girls in later generations. Few people stay at home without leaving the door.

Zhu Youjian looked at the proprietress and said with a smile:
"You don't need to order. Serve all your best dishes, and the other three tables are also our treats."

"Okay, guest officer, you are really a good person, please wait a moment!"

Zhu Youjian's words made the beautiful landlady's smile brighter, she bowed slightly and then left.

The two waiters smiled and nodded at Zhu Youjian and were about to leave, but Zhu Youjian stopped them:
"The two girls stay behind."

The two girls hurriedly stopped and smiled slightly:

"Excuse me, sir, do you have any other orders?"

Zhu Youjian pointed to the stool beside Ah Qing and said:
"Sit down first, I want to inquire about one thing."

The two girls smiled and sat down beside Ah Qing, who also nodded and smiled at them, only then did the two girls realize that there was a beautiful woman beside her.

"This girl is so beautiful!"

Ah Qing smiled and said nothing, but Zhu Youjian said with a smile:
"In my impression, shouldn't beautiful girls like you stay at home in the show building? Why are you willing to show your face?"

Hearing what Zhu Youjian said, the two girls looked at him as if they were aliens:
"The guest officials are not the people of Ming Dynasty, right? His Majesty's new policy of equality between men and women, we can do what we want to do. In the past, only the father was earning money to support the family. The dozen or so members of the family were all supported by the old man. The old man was under pressure. It’s very big, and it’s really good now. Our brothers and sisters can all go out to work and earn money to subsidize the family. Our life is a hundred times better than before, so I feel very fulfilled..."

How did the two girls know that the person in front of them was the Ming Emperor, how could he be a foreigner, he just wanted to know about the folk situation, he continued to ask with a slight smile:
"We are foreigners, not foreigners. Seeing that the streets in Gaoyang County are clean and the shops are full of prosperity, I don't know how the magistrate of Gaoyang County treats the people. Are they still like those corrupt officials?"

"Our county magistrate Yao is very good. He is a good official. He has never asked the people for money since he took office. He can also punish some bad people for ordinary people. Please don't treat our county magistrate as a corrupt official."

"Miss misunderstood, we just asked Gao Yang to see how well he developed."

Zhu You checked and didn't continue to ask questions. The county magistrate who can be respected by the common people is definitely a good official.

"The food is served..."

The two girls got up and left, and soon began to serve food. They served Zhu Youjian's table first, and then served other tables. The hotel is not big but there are many kinds of dishes, and one table was filled quickly.

When the other three tables were also served with dishes, the three guests on that table frowned, and one of the white-clothed scholars said:
"Boss, this is not what we ordered, you can't make a mistake, right?"

The proprietress smiled slightly:
"Well, this is not what you ordered, but the guest officer's treat. Now all the guests in the restaurant pay for their meals. You have met a noble person!"

"Oh, thank you very much. It seems that I met a big boss today."

The scholar in white made a joke, then got up and walked towards Zhu Youjian.

Zhu You was protected by guards and three masters in front of the body. How could they let strangers approach the emperor? If the emperor had any accidents, who would be able to bear the responsibility.

Qinglong Cao Zhengchun just wanted to stop this person, but Zhu Youjian waved his hand and said:

"It's okay, let him come over!"

The scholar in white came to Zhu Youjian and cupped his hands and said:

"I'm making a lot of money, thank you friend for your kindness, may I ask your friend Gao's name?"

Zhu Youjian smiled slightly:
"Meeting is fate, you are welcome."

Zhu Youjian was just saying something casually, but who would have thought that this kid sat down beside him and chattered endlessly:
"To be honest, I'm also a businessman. Although I don't have to worry about food and clothing, my status was lower than that of a farmer before the emperor's new policy was implemented. The emperor's implementation of the new policy allowed me to improve my status.

Now the Ming Dynasty is developing rapidly, but there is also a problem that needs to be solved. It is really inconvenient for us merchants to carry silver dragon dollars when we do business. One hundred thousand dragon dollars has to be pulled by a horse-drawn cart. Even if we have silver tickets, it is just a drop in the bucket..."

Seeing Qian Wanli sitting next to the emperor and chattering endlessly, Cao Zhengchun was worried that it would affect the emperor's meal, so he really wanted to slap this kid away, but seeing that the emperor was still looking at this kid with great interest, the eunuch could only act in a hurry and didn't care. Dare to do it.

In fact, Zhu Youjian had considered issuing banknotes a long time ago, but because the influence of the Daming Banknotes issued by Emperor Hongwu was too bad, he suspended the issuance of banknotes.

Hearing what Qian Wanli said today, he was determined to issue banknotes, so he asked:
"Isn't the Daming Banknote very convenient in the past? But it was canceled later. If the country issues a new banknote now, would you accept it?"

"This one……"

Qian Wanli pondered for a while and said:
"It's not that the Daming banknotes are not good, but that the country has no money to use, so it issues them regardless of the consequences. As a result, the Daming banknotes are becoming less and less valuable. If the issuance of banknotes can be strictly controlled, the issuance of banknotes should be good..."

Qian Wanli's words are absolutely reasonable, because he is a businessman, and it is really inconvenient to do transactions with silver.

The same is true when going overseas to do business. A large amount of tea, porcelain and silk is exchanged for a boatload of silver, which is not only inconvenient to transport, but also prone to danger.

Zhu Youjian knew that for the long-term stability of the Ming Dynasty, the issuance of banknotes was imperative.

However, Qian Wanli seems to be a bit talented. If Qian Wanli is responsible for issuing banknotes, I don't know if it is feasible.

Seeing that Zhu Youjian remained silent, Qian Wanli bowed his hands to Zhu Youjian, got up and prepared to return to his seat.

How did he know that the person he was babbling just now turned out to be His Majesty the Emperor of Ming Dynasty!
