In July, the climate in the south of the Yangtze River is not as good as that in the north of the Yangtze River, and the line is full of greenery and vitality in the early days

As the wealthy families in the south have returned to the north, Xuanwu Lake at night has regained its former prosperity, with restaurants, tea shops, car dealers, and busy livelihoods everywhere, and red men and green women coming and going, singing and dancing. 『』

In the annex of Fengle Building, Wang Xiu and Shen Mo sat opposite each other to eat and drink, and there were no outsiders waiting. Well, it's not that it's nothing, it's that it's been temporarily taken back.

"Brother Zhizhi, I also want to congratulate you on moving to Fenglang and serving as the head of the household department," Wang Xiu looked at Shen Mo with a smile on his face.

Shen Mo raised his eyebrows, his expression was quite joyful, he was a person in Hongchen fame and fortune, and he was able to enter the sixth department of Shangshu, and he was also a household department, how could he not be overjoyed.

Since the abolition of the three divisions, the power of the household department is very great, and the position of the household department is under the ministry of rites. He was a waiter in the Ministry of Rites before, and he was not as good as Zhengren, but he was also a real power figure in the fourth grade, and it was a matter of time before he removed the power.

Sure enough, in a short period of time, he achieved his wish, he endured the excitement in his heart, and said: "Finally, the court has grace, but it is still much worse than Wenshi." ”

Wang Xiu pursed his lips and smiled indifferently, he wanted to silence all the households, this waiter was still secretly operated by him, that is, to cultivate silence in an all-round way, and the right waiter was a necessary process.

Shen Mo has no experience with him, whether it is merit or fame, he can't be compared with him, not to mention the head of the household, even if he is the head of the household, it will also cause an uproar in the government and the opposition.

"This war has exposed a lot of problems, but it has also seen a good side, the bank is absolutely successful, with your strength to bear forty percent of the cost of the war, successfully let the people buy credit bonds, pay the huge expenses ahead, all opened the pioneer of the people's understanding, enough to mark the annals of history."

Shen Mo waved his hand, and said very self-knowingly: "That's all your knowledge, if it weren't for the eldest sister's massive bidding, I'm afraid I'm at a loss, you don't want to lift me, there are a few catties and a few taels, I know in my heart." ”

During the war, in order to raise military spending, the bank issued a large number of credit bonds for the first time, and a total of 3.6 million yuan was issued.

At the beginning, of course, no one bought it, who dared to say insurance for this thing, even the most adventurous maritime merchants, hesitated, Hangzhou Wang family looked at Wang Xiu's face, and bought Wanguan, a drop in the bucket

Relying only on the imperial court to supply the military expenses of the army will definitely exhaust the fishery and exploit it to the people, causing the danger of the whole society, forming a vicious circle, and eventually leading to the collapse of the finances, and the decline of the dynasty is closely related to the war.

Wang Qing didn't say a word, and immediately used the capital of Jingdong copper and iron merchants to directly pledge 660,000 yuan to transport a large number of military rations and equipment, so that the defeated Jingdong soldiers and horses could be restored to a certain extent, and the shock of the merchants was guided.

I can't help but say that Wang Qing took out her old book to buy, because she had a speculative psychology of fighting against the water, and she was extremely representative, she was Wang Xiu's sister.

However, as shrewd businessmen, they didn't think that Wang Qing would take such a big risk in order to support Wang Xiu, because the Zhao and Song dynasties were not from the Wang family, and the wealth that Wang Qing already possessed was enough for her to no longer be attached to the imperial court.

There is only one answer, Wang Qing must be close to the water, and got the most insider news, the imperial court issued war bonds, and there must be a rich return.

The businessman's nature of profit-seeking led them to believe that even if there was still a danger, but that the risk and the benefit coexisted, and there was a large amount of interest income, they bought it decisively without any hesitation.

The 3.6 million guan was snapped up, and the Huangsong Bank had to add 2 million guan to make the enthusiasm of the merchants drop.

A large amount of money supported the operations of Jingdong and Dianqiansi, plus grain and rice from Taihu Lake and Liangzhejiang Road, the Song army persevered. Because of the sufficient logistical support, the township troops of the military prefectures in Beijing were armed, and the forbidden army also replenished a large number of equipment, and let the soldiers in front of the palace have rice, chickens, ducks, pigs and sheep to eat, as well as rich rewards for meritorious work.

Let them eat Chen Dou every day to see, and the ghost will give you help.

"I'm not a fairy truth, oh, your idea for the next step, talk about it, after all, it's five million and six hundred thousand yuan" Wang Xiu was worried for a while, the two-year bond, the annual interest rate is two and a half percent, it makes people have a toothache when they think about it, and it is really a headache to fight.

"Now, it's time to promote it in the world" Shen Mo did not grind, and there was no specific statement.

Wang Xiushen thought so, but still said cautiously: "I still have to think about one or two, and then look at the implementation of a few roads, this is different from others." ”

"Wenshi is too cautious" Shen Mo can understand Wang Xiu's caution, but he is still a little disapproving, the achievements of Liangzhejiang Road are obvious to all, Wang Xiu has been recognized by the people, and good things must be struck while the iron is hot.

"If you're not careful, you can't do it, one wrong step will be all over the place." Wang Xiu did not dare to support it, the situation in various places is different, it is certain that most of the military prefectures do not have the conditions of the two Zhejiang, and they do not know how to implement it.

"It seems that Wen Shi is so cautious, he is going to brake on the officials" Shen Mo is the core figure of Wang Xiu's forces, how can he not know that the official system is the real problem, whether it is the economy or the military system, it is inseparable from the promotion of people, and the key to success lies in the selection of people and the formulation of a reasonable system.

Wang Xiu bowed his head silently, he had already begun to consider the reform of the official system, but he didn't want to change too much, the official system of the Great Song Dynasty was already very reasonable, showing the rudiments of the separation of civil and official powers, and what was missing was real internal checks and balances.

Once a strong figure emerges, the existing rational system is very fragile, that is to say, to achieve a dual monarchy, in order to minimize the restraint of the powerful ministers. If he can make a reasonable combination and have a tenacious restraint system, it will inevitably cause some opposition, and in the face of possible difficulties, he needs to unite more people.

The prime minister of the two capitals is Tang Ge, but he has long been exhausted, and it is difficult to do anything except to firmly defend the royal family. Those who can compete with him are Li Gang, Zhao Ding, Zhang Qiyuan, and even Zhang Jun can be counted, and the king who lives in a simple place cannot be despised either.

Thinking of Zhao Ding, Wang Xiu couldn't help but smile bitterly, seeing that he had the right to serve as the secretary of the Criminal Department in the name of justice, and became a potential opponent of himself.

Zhang Qiyuan also survived in the cracks, and he already has the capital to compete with him, which is really ridiculous to think about. Despite the blows of the Jurchens, the old forces were still strong and could not be shaken overnight.

Of course, the bureaucratic class of the Great Song Dynasty was huge, and if it was deliberately manipulated, it would burst out with terrifying power.

This is not alarmist, but the reality of real existence, and it is what Wang Xiu is very afraid of
