The second update arrives, call monthly ticket support!

On the last day of April in the first year of Yuanzhuo, the courtiers had waited for a long time for the morning court time. A group of courtiers rushed to the palace early in the morning. Supporting the sick body" rushed over, the big guy was divided into a dozen small circles to gather together to discuss the matter of the money method, and many courtiers who had different opinions even got red-faced because of this, which can be regarded as a warm-up before the court meeting .

At the hour of the hour, the morning court started on time. Amidst the eunuchs' calls to court, the courtiers were divided into ranks according to their grades and walked into the main hall of Qianqing Palace, but they didn't see Yin Zuo after a long time. When the emperor showed up, just when the big guys were suspicious, he suddenly smelled the aroma of food. Before the ministers could react, he suddenly heard Li Dequan's familiar eunuch's voice: "Your Majesty! Come!" A group of courtiers didn't dare to investigate what was so sweet, they hurriedly knelt down on the ground and shouted long live.

"Everyone is flat." Yin Zuo, who had already been sitting on the dragon chair, said very peacefully.The big guy stood up and found that several young eunuchs in the front yard were holding a silver plate, and there were some strange black things on the plate, which were still steaming, and bursts of aroma wafted from the things. It filled the hall, and the big guys had never seen such things, and they were all puzzled, but no one dared to ask questions, so they had to pretend not to know.

"Dear dear friends, the ancients said it well: Food is the most important thing for the people, and there is food in the family without panic, but now I am very panic. The severe drought in the two rivers, the pests in the two lakes, and Henan, I am very uneasy. I have issued an edict. Soup disaster, but soup disaster alone is not enough. I know that the fertile land in my Qing Dynasty now has at most two seasons of ripening in a year, and the yield per mu is only more than [-] catties. Nearly three hundred would be a big deal, such a yield per mu makes me very worried, but fortunately, God has the virtue of being good at life, and sent me a generous gift." Yinzuo said here, and he called for help, a young eunuch Hurriedly putting the silver plate in front of Yinzuo, Yinzuo picked up a round and black thing with a smile on his face, held it in his hand, and said with a smile: "This thing is called sweet potato, oh, it's also called sweet potato." Cheng, originally produced in Nanyang, is now planted in Guangdong. This thing does not pick the land, it grows fast, and can be planted between seasons; the leaves can be fed to pigs, and the roots can be eaten raw or cooked. It tastes good. I plan to By extension, today I invite you all to try something new, as a guideline for promotion." Yinzuo waved his hands, and the young eunuchs immediately lined up and walked down the front door, cutting sweet potatoes with silver knives and dividing them into pieces. For all the ministers to taste, from the prince to the high-ranking officials above the third rank, each person has a small piece.

The big guy has never seen this stuff before, it smells delicious, but he doesn't know whether he can eat it, but the problem is that now Yin Zuo ordered to try something new, even if it is poison, he has to swallow it, right? ?No way, a group of ministers, you look at me, I look at you, bite the bullet and stuff that small piece of sweet potato into their mouths.Hey, not to mention, the taste is really good, many ministers slammed their mouths after eating it, and the whole hall burst into applause.

tasty?Hey, that's of course, we're just using Nall and others as advertising models. With our demonstration and your praise, the promotion of this sweet potato can get twice the result with half the effort, right?Yinzuo smiled and pressed his hand, motioned the courtiers to be quiet, looked around them and said, "I have made up my mind, this thing must be promoted as soon as possible, especially in places with important grain production such as Liangjiang and Lianghu. Well, every year from Liangjiang Choose the best sweet potato as a tribute, I like the taste of this product very much. The decree: This matter will be led by the Ministry of Household Affairs, with the cooperation of provincial governors, and it must be promoted within the year."

Shi Shilun, Minister of the Household Department, hurried out of the line, knelt down in front of the hall, and said loudly: "Your Majesty." Before Yin Zuo could say anything, an official in third-rank clothing stood up and said loudly: "Your Majesty! , since this thing is appointed by the Holy Majesty, it should have a good name, if it is called Sweet Potato or Sweet Potato, it will look a bit rustic, I think it should be called Longguo." As soon as this remark came out, the whole hall applauded Immediately surged up.

Um?This is too much to talk about, right?The sweet potato is called dragon fruit, so what should the gun we invented be called?Dragon gun?Grandma, what a sycophant!When Yinzuo saw that the official was Zhang Qilong, a scholar of the Hanlin Academy, and the disciple of the third son, a feeling of nausea suddenly surged in his heart, and he said with force: "No need, I dare not covet the merits of heaven for my own merits. The sweet potato is ready, Shi Aiqing must put this matter on the top priority, don't lose my hope, well, this matter will be over here."

As soon as Yinzuo Jinkou opened, the matter was considered a foregone conclusion, and the big guys quieted down. When the scene was a little cold, Yang Mingshi, the servant of the household department, came out and said loudly: "I have this letter to your majesty, my minister Since the 43rd year of Kangxi’s imperial edict to preside over the Qianfa Act, the case has now been completed, and I respectfully ask the Holy Majesty to allow it to be implemented.”

As soon as Yang Mingshi's words came out, everyone thought that the main drama of the morning court was about to be staged, and their spirits were immediately lifted.Before Yinzuo could speak, Lin Shuanghe, the censor of the Henan Province, jumped out, knelt down on the ground, and said loudly: "I have this letter to your Majesty, and when I want to impeach Yang Ming, the servant of the household department: fighting the cabinet, there is Losing the dignity of a court official is one crime; asking for credit and rewarding people with immature rules and regulations is two crimes; as an important minister of the court, he does not want to serve the court, but deceives his superiors and his subordinates, secretly colludes with the bank to seek Self-interest, this is the third crime, such villains blatantly steal important positions in the court, and the ministers dare not refuse to participate, I hope the Holy Spirit will learn from you!" As soon as Lin Shuanghe finished speaking, a large number of courtiers fell to their knees, and they all begged When Yinzuo dealt with Yang Ming, there were shouts of beatings and killings all over the place.

Damn, Lao Ba is really well prepared, grandma's, menacing, a bit level!Yinzuo glanced at Prince Lian Yunxu who was calmly standing at the head of the princely queue, and sat silently, with no expression on his face.Yang Mingshi did not expect so many people to stand up to impeach him at the same time, his face turned pale, and he said in a little panic: "Your Majesty, I am conscientious in my work, and I am afraid that I will lose my life. I really don't know where the crime Master Lin said came from?"

"Your Majesty, Mr. Yang, Mr. Yang has a bank in his family. His father is the owner of Yangji Bank, the largest bank in the south of the Yangtze River. After investigation, Mr. Yang colluded with his father many times in private. Every regulation must be negotiated with his father. Speaking of the government-run and private bidding system is also suspected of preparing for his father's plot to seize the lifeblood of the country, he should be punished!" Lin Shuanghe said angrily.

"Holy Majesty, minister..." Yang Ming's face had already turned pale at this moment, and he was so anxious that he couldn't finish his words, which made people look like a guilty conscience.

"Okay." Yinzuo smiled and said, "I know that Yang Aiqing is public-minded. As for the matter of discussing with her father, it was out of my own will. There is nothing to say about this matter. You don't need to say anything. If you say This book is not complete, so feel free to speak up, all your lords, let Yang Aiqing answer all the questions that are unclear, and I'm listening."

Yin Zuo's words clearly supported Yang Mingshi, and the courtiers who impeached Yang Mingshi had no choice but to attack around the possible loopholes in the reform of the money law, and pointed out a lot of "problems" for a while. When it came to the matter of the money law, it seemed like a different person, and he talked endlessly, from the necessity of changing the money law to the possibility of changing the money law; how to transition from the gold and silver dual standard to the gold standard, from the imperial court From the macro control to the specific operation of the bank, and from the anti-counterfeiting ability of paper money to how to combat counterfeit money, it is wonderful to refute the accusations made by the courtiers. The system can be roughly divided into:
First, the imperial court issued banknotes and coins with gold and silver stocks as pledges. The Ministry of Industry printed them on special paper, and used stamping stamps as anti-counterfeiting marks. Daily management, but not directly involved in private capital operations.

[-]. Banknotes are the main currency, and coins are the supplementary, which is convenient for circulation. The existing silver and gold on the market are purchased at official prices, and their circulation is stopped within a limited period of time. The existing copper plates are also recycled and no longer circulated.

[-]. To rectify private banks, adopt government-run and private management methods to invite bids for existing banks, and the winners will exchange a deposit for a business license. Every three years, government-run banks will conduct a qualification review. Banks without licenses are encouraged to merge into existing banks. Banks with a license, or apply for a license after three years, all banks are not allowed to issue currency by themselves.

[-]. The imperial court legislated to limit the authority to issue currency, and issued new currency in proportion to the gold and silver in the country's inventory in the current year, thereby limiting the possibility of inflation.

[-]. Those who engage in overseas trade can exchange for a certain amount of silver according to the application procedures for customs declaration. The gold and silver obtained from overseas trade must be exchanged into banknotes at the official price after entering the customs.

[-]. The specific monitoring and auditing of government-run banks is jointly conducted by the Supervisory Yuan, Dali Temple, and the Ministry of Household Affairs to prevent corruption.

In Yinzuo's view, this system is not complete, and it can even be said to be a little rough, but things always have a beginning, and it is impossible to reach the sky in one step. The problem can only be realized in the actual implementation process. One by one is exposed, and only then can we start to solve it. Even if such and such accidents occur, it is acceptable to even cause certain losses, but Yinzuo is also very clear that if he wants to implement the reform of money It's a very difficult thing, and you may even be prepared to fail, but Yin Zuo is determined to change no matter what, even if the pain is severe, he will not hesitate, not to mention that the fourth child will help take some of the scapegoat.

A group of courtiers who oppose the reform of the money law are said to be Confucian children, and all of them are people who have read "sage books". There are countless people talking about the truth, but once they encounter economic problems, 99 out of [-] It was blind, and the remaining one was talking nonsense. Although the firepower of the attack was fierce, it didn't really hit the point. Yang Mingshi refuted it all by himself.Seeing that the gang of servants under the door were about to be unable to hold on anymore, Prince Lian Yunyu's expression suddenly turned ugly, he frowned, pretending to be powerless after recovering from a serious illness, he also came out of the line, and knelt down in front of the hall Said: "Your Majesty, my younger brother Qi Zou, my younger brother thinks that although Master Yang is diligent, it's just that this plan is not mature. All the ministers have a lot of doubts, so it's better to suspend the implementation. This minister's foolishness, please learn from me."

Hey, Lao Ba can't stand it anymore, okay, let's find you an opponent.Yinzuo smiled slightly and said: "The eighth brother's health is getting better. I have always wanted to visit the eighth brother in person, but I am busy with work and time is tight, so I don't have time. It is rare that the eighth brother is loyal to the court. I am very touched, oh, what the eighth brother said is reasonable, I will think about it." Yin Zuo stabbed the old eight, and only said that he would think about it, then ignored the kneeling old eight, with great interest Looking at Yun Zhen who has been silent all this time, he said with a smile: "Fourth brother has always been in charge of the household department, and he is no stranger to Qian Fa. I really want to hear fourth brother's opinion."

Yun Zhen is a smart person at first, how could he not know that Yin Zuo has already made up his mind, the reform of Qian law is imperative, and he also knows that Yin Zuo wants to use him to fight the old man, but now what Yun Zhen wants is authority, He can't do anything without authority, so knowing that the front may be a pit, he can only jump down, stride out, kneel beside Lao Ba, and say loudly: "Your Majesty Qizuo, I believe that this plan is feasible and must be done, even if there are some deficiencies, it can be corrected during the implementation, and I am willing to take orders to implement this plan, and ask for the permission of the sage." As soon as Yun Zhen's words came out, the old eight's body suddenly trembled Shaking, almost fell to the ground, angry and anxious, wishing to strangle Yun Zhen to death.

"Okay, what the fourth brother said is the way to seek the country. I am very grateful. If it is approved, this money law will be implemented jointly by Prince Yong Yunzhen and Minister of the Household Department Yang Mingshi as deputy. I hope all loves will not miss it." I hope." Yin Zuo nodded with satisfaction.

"Thank you for the decree!" Yun Zhen and Yang Mingshi kowtowed to accept their orders. A group of courtiers saw that the overall situation was settled, and they had nothing to say. Just when everyone thought it was the end of the morning court, Yinzuo suddenly said with a solemn expression: "I still have something to discuss with you dear ones today, announce it!" As soon as it came out, all the courtiers jumped in their hearts, not knowing what Yin Zuo was going to do...
