Ancient Imperial Examination Daily

Chapter 851 Counterfeit Banknotes
Du Jinning suppressed a smile: "Then which day do you think is suitable?"

"I think February will be a good day." Qi Muyuan said.

It is now the eleventh month of the lunar calendar, and there is one month before the Chinese New Year.If it wasn't for the rush of time, and Du Jinning married according to the rules of a princess, there were a lot of troubles, and he wished he could get married years ago.

Marriage in the first month is naturally not possible, so the day in February is very suitable for him.

When Du Jinning talked about August, he also teased Qi Muyuan.

She is not a hypocritical person. She will be 19 years old after the new year, and Qi Muyuan will be 21 years old. In this era, both of them are older unmarried youths.At the beginning, she promised Qi Muyuan to give her three years, and now it's exactly three years, and it's time for her to fulfill her promise.

What's more, Qi Muyuan hurriedly asked for the imperial decree of marriage, all for her own good.

"Okay, then February." She smiled.

The problem of degeneration of rice seeds can be easily solved.Even if she wants to devote herself to rice seed research after getting married, she doesn't have to be as busy as before.What's more, the rice fields where I do research are in the suburbs, so I can take care of family and work after getting married.

Qi Muyuan was overjoyed.

Du Jinning raised his head and asked him, "Do you have any thoughts about living in the Princess Mansion in the future?"

Qi Muyuan shook his head: "I don't have any ideas. As long as I'm with you, it's the same wherever I live."

"But my mother will also live in the Princess Mansion." Du Jinning said, "My mother has no son, and has always raised me as a son. My previous household registration was also male. It is my responsibility to provide for her."

"Your mother's pension is also counted as my share." Qi Muyuan said.

He looked at Du Jinning: "After my grandfather retires, I want to take him over to live with Aunt Lin, do you have any objection?"

Du Jinning hurriedly said, "Of course I have no objection. I wish my grandfather could come and live with us."

She sincerely regards Qi Bokun as her own grandfather, and she is too happy to have the opportunity to honor Qi Bokun.

If it wasn't for Chen's concern, she would have suggested that Qi Bokun should move in with them right now.

However, the Chen family has nothing to do with Qi Bokun. Although Qi Bokun is the elder of the Chen family and has Aunt Lin by his side, it is not a problem to live like this, and it is easy to be gossiped about.

It doesn't matter if Qi Bokun becomes an official and lives in him again.Qibo Kun is now in his 60s.According to his physical condition, it is no problem to work until he is 70 years old. For a 70-year-old man, even if he has a grandson-in-law's mother at home, there is nothing for others to gossip about.

After discussing how to arrange for their closest relatives, the two cuddled together to discuss the details of the marriage and the situation of the court for a while, and then Qi Muyuan left.

Although the two are married now and they are in love with each other, it doesn't matter if they are together according to modern practices.But Qi Muyuan was worried about Du Jinning's reputation, and Du Jinning didn't want to get married with a bad reputation, so both of them abided by the rules and did not do anything out of courtesy except kissing and hugging.

The two had a good discussion, but Mrs. Chen disagreed: "I like this house, it's good to live here, and it's convenient for your sisters to visit me. What's more, I don't live alone, and there are so many maids. As a servant, you can talk about everything. You and Xiaoyuan live in the Princess Mansion, so you can come and see me when you have time."

No matter how Du Jinning persuaded her, she refused to live in the princess mansion.

The three elder sisters also understood Chen's thoughts, and persuaded Du Jinning: "Let mother live here. After all, the princess mansion is a royal residence, and the rules are big, and mother is not comfortable there; it is not good for us when the son-in-law is here." I often come to the door to disturb. It doesn’t matter if my mother lives here, we will come to accompany my mother when we have free time. If the family is busy, we can send the child to my mother and ask her to help take care of the child.”

Seeing this, Du Jinning had no choice but to agree.

Although the Princess Mansion was cleaned up before it was given, after all, it was left for a few years, and some places were dilapidated; thinking that he might have to live here for the next few decades, Du Jinning took the time to go to see it with Qi Muyuan again. Look, I changed the house according to my own mind.Since he didn't go to Runzhou, Du Jinning tried to sell the houses, gardens and fields there.

Du Jinning was busy with private affairs, but Zhao He couldn't sit still, and sent a eunuch to summon Du Jinning to the palace to have an audience.

This is the benefit of granting Du Jinning the status of the eldest princess.Zhao He and she have become brother and sister, even if she is called into the palace, no one will gossip.

"Huangmei." As soon as we met, Zhao Huo cut straight to the point, "At the beginning, we let go of the road, and the prosperity of business was proposed by Huangmei, and we achieved gratifying results in the south. Last year, it was launched in the three southern provinces, the area increased, and the population increased. Many problems have arisen. I would like to hear the suggestion of the imperial sister in this regard."

This is an important reason why he is eager to get Du Jinning back in addition to the high-yielding rice.

"Brother, please tell me." Du Jinning did not refuse.

Zhao He then described the situation in the south.

Du Jinning frowned.

The biggest problem is the emergence of counterfeit banknotes in the south.

There was less gold and silver in the Song Dynasty, so copper coins were used more.However, it is inconvenient to carry copper coins, so Qianzhuang came into being.And the masters of these banks are rich and powerful, and they have considerable deterrent power in the local area, and the banks are not spread out on a large scale, and the exchange of bank notes is controlled within a certain range, and problems can be resolved in a timely manner.The paper currency "Jiaozi" that appeared in the Northern Song Dynasty was only circulated in Sichuan, and it was not widely used.But Rao is so, there are still many counterfeit banknote incidents.

Due to the opening of roads and the prosperity of commodity circulation, in order to solve the currency problem, before Du Jinning disappeared, Zhao Wei adopted Du Jinning's suggestion, opened the Dasong Bank, and issued banknotes.

However, this banknote is only in circulation in these three provinces. Due to the frequent circulation in the market and the huge transaction volume, some time ago, Guan Lehe discovered that there were counterfeit banknotes among the people. After tracing, it was found that more than one place printed counterfeit banknotes.

Now that the three provinces have opened up the road guides, the effect is still significant, and the tax revenue has increased significantly. Zhao Fu has seized the power of the aristocratic family, and the rights are in his hands, so he wants to open up the road guides nationwide for commercial circulation.However, if the problem of counterfeit banknotes is not resolved, it will be a big hidden danger, which will bring heavy damage to the economy of the entire country.

For this reason, Zhao Hu asked the ministers to put forward a lot of opinions, and asked the Yinfang to find a way to reprint some banknotes.But looking at these banknotes, he was still not at ease.

Now that Du Jinning came back, thinking that although she was young, she was still a woman, but her thinking was not comparable to that of those solidified officials. Zhao Wei naturally asked her to ask her a question.

In the past, Du Jinning was concerned about the power of the aristocratic family, and Du Jinning's suggestions were all in private. No one knew her talent, and her ability could not be recognized by the ministers.

Now that Zhao Yu summoned Du Jinning, he wanted Du Jinning to show her face in front of the ministers so as to improve her political status.If you want to discuss any issues in the future, if you summon her, the ministers will have fewer opinions.

So when Du Jinning was called today, besides Qi Bokun, he also called a few confidants and old officials to listen together.

Hearing Zhao He's question, everyone stared at Du Jinning, wondering if she was really as talented as Zhao He and Qi Bokun praised.

　The method everyone mentioned is very good, and we will investigate thoroughly to put an end to his small coffers.Thank you everyone.Old rules, second watch at 11 o'clock, don't wait
