In the chief office of the Third Division, Chen Zhizhong looked at the booklet brought back by Wang Bowen. Finally, he closed the booklet and pointed it at Wang Bowen who was sitting at the bottom and said, "Xu Longtu is indeed attentive to write everything about the money house clearly. Okay, with this booklet, we can write to the court and recommend the new policy of the money house on Jingxi Road across the country. As long as the money house is implemented nationwide, lack of money is not a big deal, and the flying tickets in Henan Prefecture will naturally not be a problem."

Seeing Chen Zhizhong slapping the booklet with his hands and looking pleased, Wang Bowen asked carefully: "Master, are you really going to implement the new policy of money houses across the country? Can it be implemented?"

Chen Zhizhong looked at Wang Bowen and spoke slowly: "Why did Zhongming ask that?"

"I don't hide it from the provincial government. According to what the Xiaguan saw in Henan Prefecture, although Xu Longtu did his best to compile this book, he did not agree with the money shop being able to be promoted. The Xiaguan felt that Xu Longtu always had his own reason for this."

After hearing this, Chen Zhizhong's face looked a little bad, and then asked, "How do you say Xu Longtu?"

"Xu Longtu's original words at that time were, 'Not to mention how Zhongshu looks at it, whether the money house can be built can be built, even if it is built, it will be impossible this year.' The official felt that Xu Longtu felt that Zhongshu would not agree to implement the new money house policy across the country."

Chen Zhizhong was silent for a while, and then asked Wang Bowen: "What do you think?"

Wang Bowen lowered his head and thought for a while, and said, "This time I went to Henan Prefecture, I actually understood how the money houses were implemented there. In the eyes of Xiaguan, Xu Longtu did not make any effort to implement the new money house policy on Jingxi Road, and left a lot of holes. For example, when Li Xianggong and Zhang Taiwei disagreed, they did not implement the new money house policy. In other states, the new money house policy was implemented at the same time as the companies they set up, and those companies could also keep copper coins in their hands. It is precisely because of this that those who oppose the new policy can find ways to avoid it, and Xu Longtu did not deliberately suppress it, so they did not make a big fuss."

Chen Zhizhong smiled: "It's not big yet? Someone robbed the money house, killed many lives, and robbed thousands of coins of copper coins. In the end, there was a Tongdao who set fire to the restaurant, and finally even the left-behind Sitong Magistrate Sun Mian was demoted to Lingnan!"

"These two cases have little to do with the new policy of the money house. Sun Mian is greedy and lustful, and his reputation in the officialdom is not good. This matter was instructed by him to take advantage of the new policy that everyone is not familiar with, and he will make money freely, and finally ruin the matter. He took the life of his supervisor and was demoted far away. Those who lost money hated him so much that they hated him. If he had not been demoted to Lingnan, there might be many people who would not let him go."

The case of Sun Mian was also very controversial in the court at that time. Of course, what was rumored in the capital was always a bit different from the actual situation that happened in Henan Prefecture, but the tone of Sun Mian causing trouble because of greed for money was the same. It was precisely because the Sun Mian case was first, there must be many people in the court who opposed the new policy of money houses.

However, Chen Zhizhong did not really intend to implement the new policy, and he didn't care about it. What he felt interesting was that Xu Ping clearly saw his intentions and compiled this booklet with all his heart, which was obviously to help him overcome the difficulties. On the one hand, he helped him, and on the other hand, he did not hide his lack of confidence in this move. This attitude is intriguing.

After drinking a sip of tea, Chen Zhizhong said: "Xu Longtu is cautious and never leaves room for things to do. It is not surprising to do this. If we implement the new policy on money houses across the country, we are afraid that it will not be so gentle."

Wang Bowen smiled bitterly: "This is exactly what Xiaguan means. If the Sanshi wants to do what Xu Longtu does on Jingxi Road, it will never be so calm. But the Xiaguan thinks that Sanshi is difficult to do now! What is Xu Longtu's identity? Just implementing the new policy all the way to Jingxi Road, if it weren't for the large amount of money brought by cotton later, it would have to be repeated!"

Xu Ping's official position is exactly the same as Chen Zhizhong. He also has a more Yongning County Marquis and Jiaozhi's military achievements. It is still so difficult. Why should Chen Zhizhong continue to be implemented nationwide? Wang Bowen doesn't believe it, and I'm afraid no one believes it. Xu Ping's new policy is mainly based on temptation, and basically no coercion. Where did Chen Zhizhong get the capital to do this? Now, just because the three departments of Henan Prefecture's flying tickets are about to go bankrupt, so how can they still use money to tempt the world!

Chen Zhizhong didn't want to discuss this issue anymore, so he waved his hand: "Let's go up the memorial first, and see how the Zhengshi Hall is looking at it, and then say it slowly. By the way, what else does Xu Longtu have to say?"

"Also, Xu Longtu is extremely dissatisfied with the recent plummeting silk price. He said that silk is originally a kind of money, but it fell too quickly, making the world at a loss. If the price of silk is falling, the world's money will be even less than enough."

"What if it doesn't fall? Who has a way! He made so much cotton cloth on Jingxi Road and sold it to the state army all at once. It's too late for the three departments to stop it! Does Xu Longtu have a way to stop the price of silk?"

Wang Bowen whispered: "Before leaving, Xu Longtu mentioned the art of raising the officials, saying that the three departments should strictly prohibit the treasury of various prefectures and counties from taking out silk, and collect silk from the private sector to the officials, so that the price of silk should not fall too quickly."

Chen Zhizhong couldn't help but smile bitterly: "The most important thing about the art of "Title" is to have capital. Where can Sansi get the capital to buy silk? Not to mention that it is folk silk, even if it comes out of the inner treasury, I can't handle it! Naturally, I know that this is not a solution now. Not only does the price of silk fall too quickly, but the people lack money to use it, but how to collect the summer tax next year is a headache. But if there is no money in your hand, who can do it? As the prefectures and counties see that the price of silk is falling day by day, can I stop selling silk? "

Money and grain are the most important assessment matters for local officials. In this case, the three departments ordered that they would not be allowed to takeout, and they would secretly find ways to sell them. Chen Zhizhong wanted to ban it, but the problem was that it could not be banned. Not to mention that the eunuch in the warehouse was short-sighted and urged Zhao Zhen to release a large amount of silk from the warehouse every day, and the market in the capital was in chaos. Now Chen Zhizhong's biggest headache is not these, but summer taxes, which have always collected money and silk. How to collect silk next year?

Wang Bowen knew a little about this and said to Chen Zhizhong: "It is difficult for the provincial master, but the official thinks what Xu Longtu said makes sense. As long as you grit your teeth now and temporarily stabilize the price of silk, you can just wait for a year or two, and there may be a turning point."

Chen Zhizhong shook his head with a wry smile and said nothing. He naturally understood the truth, but the problem was that he could not do it. How could he decide to obtain such a national policy based on the power of the Three Divisions? The Political Affairs Hall could not count on it for a while.

Since the Chinese New Year, the conflict between Lu Yijian and Wang Zeng has become deeper and deeper, and he is in a state of inconsistent force, and the government has been greatly affected. Xu Ping still couldn't feel it on the West Road of Jing, but Chen Zhizhong was deeply affected by it. Wang Zeng also took the overall situation into consideration and only opposed Lu Yijian and tried not to affect the country's major policies. Lu Yijian was not able to do anything. He could use almost every government policy to fight against Wang Zeng, and the yamen below could not say that there was any suffering.
