Censor Yang Zhiqi and Liao Guolin both visited their colleague Liu Meicai's mansion. As soon as they met, they took out the silver notes and asked: "Brother Liu, can you take back these silver notes? You can't let us work for you for nothing, right?"

"Yes, Brother Liu, what you gave are all the silver notes from Fanji Money House, which is a piece of waste paper in our hands." Liao Guolin and Yang Zhiqi finished speaking, immediately followed, "I heard that you have a good relationship with the Fan family. You must have an explanation for this matter, right?"

Liu Meicai's face looked very ugly. He had indeed given these two silver notes to Fanji Money House many times before, but the key is that he actually had silver notes to Fanji Money House. He didn't have much silver, so he could exchange silver notes for them!

So he said in embarrassment: "You two, you can't say that. I'm also a victim! Otherwise, if I give my banknotes to you, I'm really worried about what to do with the banknotes!"

"Then I don't care!" Yang Zhiqi suddenly became annoyed when he heard this, "Whoever gives you the silver bill, who do you want to find? The silver bills we have on hand, but we will naturally find you if you give us!"

"Yes, you can find whoever you give it to!" Liao Guolindi's voice also louder, "The people from the Beijing Shifan family have been arrested. Do you want us to run so far to Shanxi? We don't care, we can only find you!"

I don’t know if I can exchange it for money when I go to Shanxi. Even if I can exchange it for money, who will spend on the road if the money is less? If the money is too much, the current bank is brought from Shanxi, but now it is not peaceful. What if I get robbed along the way? Anyway, the risk of going to Shanxi to exchange for silver notes is too great. At least these two censors don’t want to go there, and they just make trouble with Liu Mei.

When Liu Meicai saw her, she was too lazy to pay attention to the two of them. She stood up and said, "Tell you the truth. Even if you mess around, I don't have any money to change it for you. It's easy to leave and don't give it away!"

After saying that, he stood up and wanted to leave.

When Yang Zhiqi saw it, he stepped forward and grabbed his sleeve, shouting: "If you don't give money, do you still want to leave? If you really don't give it, don't blame me for being anxious and doing anything!"

Seeing him like this, Liu Meicai remembered the reputation of the two of them asking for money but not being alive. She was really afraid that they would make a fuss about their faces, so she had to explain: "I only have silver notes in my hand, I really don't have the money to exchange for you!"

Liao Guolin, who was next to him, turned around and suddenly rushed to the front. No matter what kind of etiquette or not, he stepped on the chair, then jumped to the table, reached out and took off the hanging painting, and said, "This is the original work of Yan Zhenqing, right? Forget it, whether it is an original work or not, just use this as compensation."

While speaking, he moved very quickly, quickly rolled up the painting, threw his silver note to the table under his feet, and quickly walked out of the door.

Liu Meicai was anxious as soon as she saw this, and hurriedly chased and shouted, "This painting is the original, it is one of my most precious collections. You can't take it away, give it to me..."

Seeing Liao Guolin escape, Liu Meicai chased after him. Yang Zhiqi was stunned for a while, then immediately turned around and found that there were a few calligraphy and paintings hanging beside him. Although the original calligraphy of Yan Zhenqing that was not hanging in the middle was valuable, it was Liu Meicai's collection, so he ignored it. He followed suit and took the calligraphy and paintings. He felt that one was not enough, so he picked two of them. After rolling it up, he slapped the silver notes on the table and wanted to slip away.

But after only two steps, he suddenly stopped again, turned around and put a few silver notes into his arms, and then stuffed one of the calligraphy and paintings into his sleeves. He just held a calligraphy and painting in his arms before he quickly went out.

In the courtyard, Liu Meicai and Liao Guolin were tugging, and there were already servants watching. No one dared to participate in the pulling of several officials.

Seeing Yang Zhiqi also carrying calligraphy and painting, Liu Meicai became anxious and wanted to pull him. For a moment, he was a little careless. So he had no choice but to shout to the servants: "Why are you still standing there? Stop them by the master and take back the calligraphy and painting!"

When the servants saw him, they wanted to step forward, but Liao Guolin and Yang Zhiqi shouted, "Who dares to touch me? Don't you, the untouchables, know how to pay back the debt? Is it still reasonable for you to pay back the money if you owe money?"

Liu Mei was so angry that she wanted to vomit blood, and immediately retorted: "Who owes you money? I didn't open the money house!"

"You gave the silver bill anyway!"

“…”

The three censors who usually speak of benevolence, righteousness and morality are tugging at each other, and the more they speak, they become more and more unpleasant. Later, they scold each other. This scene made the servants stunned.

At this moment, a maid suddenly came over and said to Liu Meicai a little anxiously: "I've said that my family, let me go with them and let it go."

Hearing this, Liu Mei was stunned and then let go of her hand.

When Yang Zhiqi and Liao Guolin saw it, they immediately walked out quickly. Or because of the pulling, several silver notes fell out behind them, floating and floating in front of Liu Meicai.

Liu Meicai picked up the silver bill and looked at it. Her face looked extremely ugly. These two bastards kept all the silver bills, but they even hid some of them and took them away. This time she was really a big loss!

I am really good at it. I hang the last few calligraphy and paintings in the living room, and the result is that these two bastards are cheaper!

Suddenly, the maid reminded again: "Master, my family is waiting for the master!"

When Liu Mei heard this, she came to her senses and hurriedly left.

In a wing room, I saw my family members. Before I could speak, I heard the man say, "Mr. Liu doesn't have to care about these things. Brother Fan will definitely supply them in the future and will never let them suffer any losses!"

When he heard this, Liu Meicai's expression immediately improved a lot. When he wanted to say something, he immediately changed: "I'm not for this little money, but for what you asked me to do. I'm a little ashamed!"

This family member was Wang Dengku who came from Shanxi and settled in his mansion after he arrived in the capital.

Wang Dengku knew that Liu Mei was the one who originally wanted these people to make trouble for the emperor and demanded exchange of silver notes. However, unexpectedly, the evolution of the situation did not develop as they expected. The sudden violent force allowed the emperor to make a decision in public.

Now, it is not just the silver notes in Fanji Money House. The emperor made a ruling, which was to target all the silver notes and ask those who held the silver notes to pursue them from the owner of the silver notes. If the emperor could not take them out, his home would be searched to pay off the debt.

No one can say anything about this yet. It is natural to pay back the debt!

On this basis, the matter of Fanji Money House was even more strict. After intimidating everyone in the silver bill, none of them went to the emperor to make trouble, but tried every means to recover some losses first, so as not to avoid the factory guards' question of Fan Yongzheng if there was any problem.

Now that he understands the situation in the capital, Wang Dengku is a little confused about what to do? After all, he is just a businessman. He has never experienced this involving the court and the emperor.

After sitting for a while, Wang Dengku sighed and said, "It seems that there is no way to deal with the silver bill for now. It is too fierce and has been out of control. There is only one way at present, to divert the attention of the court and find a way when this matter gets cold!"

When he came, he had received an explanation and was ready to use the alternative plan.

Seeing Liu Meicai looking at him with a little puzzled look, Wang Dengku explained again: "In the capital, the most important thing that can affect silver bills is to fill the stomach. I will ask the grain merchants under my name to stop selling them and make a noise, saying that the grain has been sold out, and this matter will definitely divert attention."

Hearing this, Liu Mei nodded and said, "Now there are many local reports that the 200,000 people have no food to eat. Once the food is cut off, it will be a big deal. The court's attention will definitely be diverted!"

"Okay, then I'll do it like this, I'll make arrangements right away!" Wang Dengku said, and comforted Liu Meicai, "Sir, don't worry, after this incident, you will be able to compensate you three times!"

Liu Mei was happy when she heard this. He believed in Wang Dengku. Since he said this, he would definitely be able to fulfill it.

At this moment, Liu Meicai's housekeeper came over and came from the street to report to Liu Meicai about the news coming from the street.

"Master, someone is collecting silver notes issued by Fanji Money House, which is collected at a discount."

"It is said that they have the strength and are ready to collect more silver notes and then send someone to Shanxi to ask the Fan family for money!"

"Some of those who have less money will sell the silver notes to them!"

"There are people scolding Fanji Money House everywhere outside, which has caused them all to be bad!"

“…”

Listening to the inquiry, Wang Dengku and Liu Meicai were speechless. However, Wang Dengku also knew that Fan Yongdou had already avoided his hometown and could not find anyone. As for these people who went to collect debts, there was no need to worry about it. Shanxi is the territory of the Governor, and if the Governor looked at it, it would be impossible for them to do whatever they wanted.

At the same time, on Emperor Chongzhen's side, he was in a very good mood. After such a fuss, the matter of the Royal Bank of the Ming Dynasty was settled.

I just hung up a sign before, but now I have to expand it and build it according to the prototype of the bank in the future. At least I cannot do everything in one window. Deposits, loans, and withdrawals must be classified into categories and specialized windows to do special things. People who have been to the Royal Bank of the Ming Dynasty feel reliable from the first cognition.

After Emperor Chongzhen made the design drawings, he tried his best to use the existing shops and renovate several nearby shops. There was no time for the grandeur of later generations. As for safety issues, it was even more OK. The factory guards and the three major camps sent soldiers to work inside and outside, but they didn’t believe that they could steal and save the silver?

At this time, he was actually busy. Some things were not allowed to be done by others. Moreover, at this time, even if he could do the work on his behalf, he was still worried that he would let others do it for him, and he had to ask for inquiries himself, and he had to test the ability of the person in charge, etc. Only when he was truly familiar with it can he feel at ease and be able to do things with his ability.

Now, he has moved to the palace to inspect the situation here. When he turned around, the three camps were going to be sent to Shanxi. Although it is unlikely that they will go to war, it is said that the place of replacement of military equipment should be done first.

The military battle system is responsible for making swords, guns, swords, halberds, whips, axes, helmets, armor, bows, arrows and other military equipment, as well as small iron locks, needles and scissors, bells and drums used in rituals, etc., and the military equipment is controlled by the military battle system, and it belongs to the Gunpowder Department. It can be said that the military equipment required by the three major battalions under the Imperial Horse Supervision can be completely solved by the military battle system.

The military battle bureau has a member of the eunuch in charge of the seal and the eunuch in the admiral's weapon treasury, the manager, the secretary, the chief officer, and the supervisor. At this time, he was patrolling with the eunuch in charge of the seal and the eunuch in the admiral's weapon treasury.

Either there was an example of the king's heart before, or if you know that after the three major camps were established, the emperor would definitely be in the military battle, so there was no need to see too many problems in the military battle. However, there were very few weapons and armor stocks, and there was not much gunpowder.

Feng Delun, the eunuch in charge of the seal, personally held the account book and explained to Emperor Chongzhen: "Your Majesty, the military battle has not received silver for a long time, and has not received iron, coal, etc. It has not started construction for a long time."

Seeing the emperor's brow frown, he immediately explained: "The Ministry of Works said that the Jianlu was raging, so all the supply was cut off, so they had no choice!"

Emperor Chongzhen was not angry about this. He remembered that he had said that he would not investigate the past. Therefore, the accounts were still clear in the explanation given by the eunuch at the time of the seal.

However, after a round of inspections, especially the spiritual outlook of those craftsmen, even if he, the emperor, came, it can be seen that these craftsmen are really problematic.

Not only did they all have pale faces and thin skin, but they could see that they were weak even if they just knelt down to welcome the emperor.

These craftsmen are actually free labor and serve in labor. Craftsmen with skilled craftsmen who have some money can pay for exemption from service and let others serve on their behalf. This is also what Zhang Juzheng started after the whip method, which is the so-called "everything is to look at money". Everything, no matter how talented labor or anything, can be converted into silver.

Emperor Chongzhen was naturally very dissatisfied with this. What kind of fine military weapons can such craftsmen expect them to create? Not to mention, they have to innovate.

Regardless of the situation of military wars before, at least from now on, we must mention a very important level that the relevant systems must be reformed. Otherwise, even if Emperor Chongzhen has many ideas in his mind, they cannot be implemented.

Of course, today he was just here to fully understand the situation of the military battle and did not say anything immediately. After returning, he was ready to think about it carefully, at least to fully conceive it.

However, what Emperor Chongzhen did not expect was that he had just returned, and the chief assistant Xue Guoguan came to ask for a meeting, and was sweating profusely. Obviously, something major happened...m.
