Ming Dynasty, starting from the empty seal case

Chapter 59 No need for paper money! (Third update)
  "Prime Minister, it seems not..."

"I heard their report. Qianhu from the pro-military captain's mansion came and said something. Then Mao Xiang sighed... what a piece of luck! He just left."

Zhang Guance reported quickly.

"Oh?"

Hu Weiyong is real now, I have to be curious.

Originally he had already made up his mind.

If Su Guiyuan dares to disobey the Holy Order, he doesn't have to worry too much.

But now the situation has changed again!
  "Since this is the palace of a pro-military captain, could it be that something happened to the Holy Emperor?"

"There haven't been many festivals to celebrate lately, right?"

Zhang Guance immediately shook his head, "No, it's only April. Even if it's May soon, it won't be a big deal."

"That's strange?" Hu Weiyong had to guess: "Could it be that Su Guiyuan's persistence really moved the Holy One? The Holy One even wanted to reward his loyal and upright character, so he didn't feel embarrassed?"

This idea just came to mind.

Hu Weiyong sneered, "The truth is that it is really a demonic obstacle. How could the Holy One be like this?"

"Besides, the implementation of treasure banknotes has been hindered!"

"The Holy One has issued an order prohibiting the casting of copper coins."

"It's obviously to force the people to use it... In addition, Tubo surrounded and killed me, the envoy of the Ming Dynasty!"

"Not only did they not surrender, they dared to fight back against me, the Ming Dynasty!"

"What a dog's courage!"

Hu Weiyong cursed secretly, and then said: "With so many places asking for money, does the Holy Spirit want to stabilize the situation just by relying on the original quota of 10 million per year?"

In Hu Weiyong's view.

He knew very well how much the Baochao Jusi had helped the Ming Dynasty since its establishment.

Why was Guo Huan, the first treasure banknote examiner, promoted so quickly?
  Isn't it just because I worked attentively in Zhongshu Province and made a lot of money?

That's why Guo Huan's rapid rise to prominence came about.

In the eyes of the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, this newly established yamen is considered a good job.

As a result, Su Guiyuan, the only person who escaped from the Kongyin case, used the Kongyin case to kill so many officials, but he himself was promoted without seizing the opportunity.

In the eyes of the ministers, how stupid he is!

But this fool, he exceeded his expectations again and again.

"What happened in the palace?"

this moment.

Hu Weiyong thought about it, but he couldn't think of a reason.

He even stood up and started wandering.

But just when he was exhausted.

An absurd and incredible idea suddenly appeared...

suddenly!

Hu Weiyong looked at Zhang Guance, "In the past few days, has that boy from the Su family been to the main hall?"

Hear this.

Even Zhang Guance couldn't help but widen his eyes. The prime minister was doubting on the left and doubting on the right. Was the suspicion on his head?

That's not right.

"Prime Minister, it is true that he entered the main hall, but the news spread outside is that he took those children and the emperor's grandson to play some games."

These messages are no secret.

Even Hu Weiyong heard about it.

It's just that when he heard about playing games, he subconsciously didn't take it to heart.

Coupled with the recent Tubo incident, Duke Deng Yu and Mu Ying's preparations for the expedition, and the ban on copper coins in various places, all require him to be busy.

Also, Su Guiyuan has never been in his heart...

But I didn't expect that now it was negligence.

"What are you playing for?"

He closed his eyes and began to think, whenever things were beyond his control.

He just wanted to find out more out of curiosity.

"I only heard that the sons of various nobles brought all their valuables to the palace, and they were pulled in by carriages, and what happened after that was the deal... and they also talked about the Qinglong Yanyue Sword, Fang Tian Painting Halberd... …”

Hu Weiyong frowned slightly, "What is this all about?"

"However, the Holy One will never give up."

"I didn't want to talk to you, but now, just use your brain. If I can't subdue you, then don't appear under my nose."

Zhang Guance quickly lowered his head, "Yes!"

……

Xinghua Lane.

Su Xian looked in shock at his father who had walked in from the outside in an upright manner.

"You mean, they carried you out and then released you?"

Su Guiyuan also wondered: "Isn't it you?"

"I really don't know."

Su Xian shook his head. Although they were playing today, Emperor Hongwu saw it.

But he could see the other person's expression. Although he was always surprised, there was not much emotional fluctuation.

At that time, he knew that this first round did not make him tempted.

even.

The large-scale printing and distribution of treasure banknotes is not good for the prosecution of treasure banknotes. The other party must also know this.

Otherwise, it would not be possible to set such rules when it was first established.

Emperors have always known how to make trade-offs.

In Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes, treasure banknotes were a tool for governing the country and amassing wealth.

But what made Su Xian curious was.

Since the pro-military captain's house took his father away, it showed that the emperor had made up his mind, and it was useless for his father to pretend to be asleep.

But he changed his mind midway...

"Maybe we'll see the outcome tomorrow."

Su Xian murmured.

"By the way, my father has been idle at home and thinking a lot about the things you have been doing these past few days. I am afraid that something is... wrong." At this time, Su Guiyuan thought of something again and quickly looked at his son.

A few days ago, he had just taken up the post of Treasurer's Office, and he was very proud of it, so he was always showing up outside.

But since his "fainting", his son has been prominent in the palace, so he took the opportunity to make a careful calculation.

"The Holy One wants to print treasure banknotes. In addition to making up for losses, there must be a major reason."

"No matter what we do, we will definitely not be able to stop it."

"You have to take a step back when necessary."

"You know how to retreat now?" Su Xian was speechless.

"Hasn't this been figured out? Unless the Holy One has other channels to obtain other money, or the wealthy gentry among the people show great kindness and give money and food to the court...I am afraid that the issuance of treasure banknotes this time is inevitable!"

"You are right about this." Su Xian nodded, "The Holy One will definitely issue treasure banknotes by force."

"Force?" Su Guiyuan frowned.

"My father has served in the Ministry of Household Affairs for many years, but he knows one thing very well."

As he spoke, he looked at Su Xian thoughtfully.

It seems to be admonishing.

"In this important military and national matter, in today's world, the Holy One dares to claim to be the first, but no one dares to claim the second!"

"But money... is definitely not enough!"

"Even when it comes to military and national affairs, we must do the opposite!"

"Oh?" Su Xian looked at Su Guiyuan in surprise, "Do you have any other ideas?"

"Look... look down upon!"

Su Guiyuan once again "escaped from danger", and his tense mood in the past few days has relaxed.

"Although I was a scholar before I became a father, it does not mean that my father's ability is only that of a scholar. Just listen to what I have learned over the years."

"This is a major military and national event. It's a sword, and it's the body that's being chopped!"

"But as for money and food, this is the invisible blade that pierces people's hearts."

"Therefore, this major military and national event is just right!"

"But whether it's money, food, or treasure, if it concerns the people, you have to be gentle."

Su Guiyuan sighed:

"The more forceful the Holy One is in this matter, the more bad things will happen!"

"The strong melon is not sweet..."

Hearing this, Su Xian looked at his father in shock.

It was a surprise.

"Dad, did you fail to perform well when you were admitted as a scholar? Are you nervous?"

Su Guiyuan turned his head and looked at his son.

Then he smiled awkwardly.

"Haha, don't mention it, don't mention it..."

"It doesn't matter if you don't mention anything. If you say you have to work hard, are you still at the eighth level now?"

"It's not rising yet."

"So you have to keep working hard, don't be arrogant and complacent, you need to be humble and cautious..."

……

The next day.

Everything is business as usual, but not as usual.

Song Lian and Fang Xiaoru already knew what they were going to do.

So this lesson is just like usual. Today I am reading the Thousand-Character Essay.

Wait until it is almost done.

The two of them actually refused to leave. Instead, they looked at Su Xian, Zhu Xiongying and others.

"Today, let's play outside!"

"The Holy One has granted permission and requires another group of people to join."

what?
  Su Xian and others looked at him in surprise.

But I don’t know when...

King Qin, King Jin, King Yan, and even Su Xian had seen Xu Huizu, Chang Mao, Li Jinglong and others standing outside and watching.

Their expressions were gloomy, and they were obviously quite unwilling to let themselves and others come here.

But it has to be so!
  "Brother, are you here too?"

However, Chang Sen and the others were very happy.

"Originally, we thought we had few people and couldn't let go. Now that there are more people, it's even better!"

however.

As soon as these words came out.

The faces of King Qin and others became even darker.

"Help these boys move those things out first."

Xu Huizu sighed helplessly, and immediately entered with everyone else, and moved all the treasures out in three clicks.

"Come and collect the treasure banknotes. Go to Xiongying to collect them according to your respective salary."

Chang Sen reminded him kindly, showing his eight big white teeth.

"Need not!"

Who knows.

Qin Wang Zhu Cang's lazily voice resounded.

Xuan Ji looked at Zhu Xiongying, smiled first, and then looked at Su Xian.

"Let's come today...without any paper money!"

Zhu Xiongying asked doubtfully: "What's the use?"

"use this!"

talking.

King Qin threw out a silver ingot, weighed it in his hands, and spoke firmly.

“We don’t believe in banknotes, we believe in this!”
