My harem can't be this messy

Chapter 762 Silver Note
Last year, when the southern flood hit, local rich merchants ganged up to hoard and drive up the price of rice. As soon as the price rose, the surrounding state highways sent a large amount of grain to the disaster area. As a result, the price of rice plummeted, and those hoarding rice merchants were severely compensated. a handful.

This is another function of Yinzhuang. In the incident last year, as Yinzhuang, not only was it able to obtain the market price fluctuations at the first time, but also purchased a large amount of rice from surrounding areas through the silver deposits in Yinzhuang, and shipped them to the disaster area. , completely suppressing food prices.

At this time, Yinzhuang seems to have controlled the main commercial bank flow in Datang, and Cui Yan has already started planning to promote silver bills, and there will be less and less silver circulating in the market in the future.

Silver and gold are basically piled up in the treasury, and only silver notes and gold notes equal to their value are circulated in the market.

This is a bit like the currency of later generations. Precious metals do not participate in direct circulation, but are only used as equivalent mortgages. At that time, Datang will not only obtain a large amount of precious metals through this method, but also use this method to transfer silver from other regions. And gold absorbed into Datang's treasury.

By this year, the branches of Yinzhuang have basically spread all over the county-level administrative agencies of Datang, and even penetrated into countries such as Goguryeo, Silla, and Baekje.

The collection of silver and gold can be obtained slowly. At that time, the whole world will use the silver bills issued by Datang, and all the gold and silver in the world will be lying in the treasury of Chang'an. Zhuang last thing to do.

"Auntie, what happened to the printing of books by the Zheng family and the Lu family recently?"

"Well, it just so happens that my fourth son Xueqian sent someone to Chang'an, you can call him to the palace to ask."

"I don't need to ask to know that the business is good. I was in the Hongwen Museum yesterday, and most of the new batch of books there came from the Zheng family's printing workshop."

"This year, there are many more scholars in the Kebao examination than in previous years. This is all thanks to the Zheng and Lu families."

"By the way, Zhi'er, Auntie heard that Shiying is also pregnant."

"Uh, oh, yes yes."

Do you want people to have a good time? Why are they all so easy to conceive?

Didn't he pay her public rations a few times?This probability is a bit too high!

Alas, Li Zhi was depressed, sitting beside the queen mother, watching the card table rattled for a while, Li Zhi felt that his mind was heavy, so he left the Lizheng Hall.

The baby in Wu Meiniang's belly was not yet born, and Zheng Shiying was pregnant again. At this time, Li Zhi probably realized why there are so many children in power in this era.

Alas, there are so many concubines, that's how they can be made. This is the result of Li Zhi's attention and attention. If he really let go of this, he may have a house full of children by now. After more than ten years, his children can all form Two teams, playing polo.

Li Zhi had something on his mind, so he heard the bell from the palace. It was so late, and there was still a bell.Ringing the bell at this time is always inappropriate!

Morning bells and evening drums, could it be that someone hit it by mistake?
Li Zhi hurried to the place where the bell sounded, and it was getting closer at this time, and he heard two more bells, maybe it was approaching, Li Zhi had already heard that this was definitely not the sound of a bell striking, the sound of a wooden stake striking a bell was Loud and atmospheric, but these few bells were obviously much quieter and duller.

It feels, it feels like someone is using a big clock to practice the iron mountain.

Li Zhi walked into Foguang Temple and walked towards the big bell in the temple. As soon as he got closer, he saw a white shadow dancing beside the big bell. When the big bell came, it made a dull sound.

Li Zhi hurried over, the white shadow stopped jumping all of a sudden, and then jumped directly into Li Zhi's arms.

"Xue Ke, why are you so naughty? Even after nightfall, you are still playing here. I thought something was wrong!"

"Your Majesty, Xue Ke can speak now."

Li Zhi hesitated for a moment, then suddenly picked up the snow fox, and kissed the fox fiercely, regardless of the hair on the fox's face.

Then, with the snow fox in his arms, he walked out of Foguang Temple. This direction was facing the place where Li Wan and Luluo lived.

When Li Zhi got there, he saw Luluo standing in the courtyard, worrying about the snow in the courtyard.

In Li Zhi's arms, Xue Ke jumped down and rushed towards Lu Luo.

"Little green, little green, I can talk, I can talk."

Lu Luo also didn't react immediately, seeing Xue Ke rushing into her arms, she hugged Xue Ke suddenly.

"Don't call me Xiaolu, I'm your aunt's younger sister, you should call me little aunt."

"I'll call you Little Green, Little Green, Little Green, Little Green."

"Hahaha, dear niece Xue Ke, you can finally talk, sister, sister, come out quickly."

"Auntie, Auntie!"

The door there opened with a creak, and Xue Ke jumped excitedly from Luluo's arms to Li Wan's arms.

"Well, my aunt heard it, and my aunt is very happy."

"Xue Ke is also very happy, hahahaha..."

Li Zhi listened to the fox's human voice, and he still felt it was weird at this time. Li Wan is also a vixen, but she won't turn into a fox to talk to him.

There, Li Wan hugged Xue Ke around the courtyard for a few times before carrying her into the house. At this time, Lu Luo walked away from Li Zhi's side.

"Your Majesty, you also go in and have a seat."

"No, let Xue Ke and her aunt have a good time, I will send Xue Ke here, so I won't bother you."

Li Zhi left the yard and took a look. The happiest thing tonight was that the vixen he raised could talk.There are three little ones, if they can talk, will Foguang Temple be very lively in the future?

A certain little nun went out at night for convenience, and suddenly heard someone talking, and then looked around, but there was no one, would she be pleasantly surprised, yes, she would wow in surprise, and then she didn't even notice that her pants were wet.

These foxes, alas, have been with me for a long time.

Li Zhi returned to Ganlu Hall, the next few days, the wind and snow were extremely heavy, Li Zhi curled up in the warm blanket, with a plump body beside him, much more comfortable than a warm baby.

These few days should be the coldest time of the year. When the snow clears, the palace will start to be busy, and the ice cellar will begin to store ice.

The original ice slag was thoroughly cleaned, and then the ice cellar was divided into several areas to store ice for different purposes.

These ices are also obtained from different places. The cleanest ice can be directly made into smoothies in the coming year, accompanied by mung bean paste and fruit juice, and can be eaten as ice cream.

Those that are not too clean can be used for iced plum soup, or even extravagant enough to be used to chill a glass of water.

There are also some dirtier ones, which can be piled up in the room to cool down. The ice cellar in the palace has a huge storage space, and the insulation technology used has been continuously improved by countless people in China through thousands of years of accumulation.

Li Zhi saw a large group of guards and eunuchs fetching ice from the lake, pulling ice cubes by horses. From time to time, fish jumped out of the water and were kicked into the lake again.

I will continue to fetch ice for the past few days. Taking advantage of the fine weather, who knows if there will be more snowstorms in the future.
