In the small study of Kunning Palace, Gu Ci, who had asked her husband, brought Yiqing to chat alone, she is not a financial professional, and she can only rely on the existing business elites to improve the concept, and everyone brainstorms together to fill in the gaps.

Ah Sheng, who had already begun to read the recital, won a seat in the auditorium.

"Ah Qing, I want to set up a royal silver building."

"But for the convenience of exchange?"

The current silver building developed from a shop that produced and traded gold and silver jewelry utensils, and later became a private money bank that could store silver taels and exchange small amounts of money in other places. Since the establishment of the Royal Trading Company, there has been a special exchange department to deal with foreign exchange and transportation of gold and silver, etc., and has been operating for several years of experience.

"Exchange is only a small part, and it can be done to 'connect the world', mainly for the convenience of lending and depositing, and at the same time absorbing gold and silver reserves to prepare for the issuance of treasure banknotes."

"Treasure money? New money order? ”

"It's not so strict, it's a small bearer, it can be used as a silver horn, and it's usually used to buy and sell things." The bill of exchange is similar to the modern check, each bank and bank has a fixed format, the amount is uncertain, and the endorsement and signature are readily available, so as to realize the exchange in different places, which is completely different from the convenience and ease of use of currency. Judging from the current inventory of silver, it is not difficult to connect the world, not to mention that after Iberia and other countries mine gold and silver mines in South America, there will be more silver influx.

Yiqing hesitated, and when he heard it, the 'treasure banknote' was reminiscent of flying money in the Tang Dynasty and tokens like salt introductions, if it were to replace gold and silver, "...... It may lead to the 'wrong currency rebellion' of Emperor Jianxing. ”

Emperor Jianxing is suspected of being a traverser, Wang Mang, in his currency reform, he used the methods of wrapping, inlaying, plating, etc., doped with other metals, to reduce the actual content of gold and silver in metal currency, making the types of new coins complex and cumbersome, and depreciating greatly. However, people still make metal at all, and they directly replace it with paper, not to mention the problem of forgery, it definitely feels less reliable than heavy coins.

"Gold and silver are used, treasure money is also used, whichever is convenient, people will naturally use which. As long as the treasure banknotes are guaranteed to be successfully exchanged, they can naturally replace gold and silver. When the price of gold and silver is also measured in treasure money, treasure money becomes money. ”

As for the circulation, forgery, circulation and other issues, it is the next step to discuss with the emperor and the household department before deciding, today she just wants Yiqing to consider the gains and losses together, make a plan, and then take it to discuss with Yuan Yi, and then investigate it for three or five years, and choose a mature time to start.

"If it is only for the convenience of exchange, the silver building can be set up alone at any time, but I am afraid that it will take ten or eight years for the treasure banknote to be popularized."

"What I think is that our grain bank pays treasure money for autumn grain, and the price is set higher than that of paying silver, and then the tax silver collected by the state is also changed to treasure money, which is convenient for paying taxes, and farmers can use it first." As long as the new frontier begins to get used to using Dayu currency, instead of gold and silver that can be found in any country, it will be much more difficult for the West to colonize.

"Why is that?" Yiqing was stunned when he heard this, and the customers of Yinlou have always been mainly merchants, but now they are doing the opposite, taking farmers as users, which seems to be different from what he thought.

"The main reason is to let the farmers in Annam, Piguo and other places get used to using treasure money as soon as possible, so that they will not change their ways."

"You want to take the treasures of the two places into the treasury?"

"You can't do that! It must be tried in domestic ports before it can be used in various places. Gu Ci was afraid that he would want to 'exchange paper for gold and silver' to collect money, "When they all use Dayu's treasure money like in China, they won't feel that they are not Chinese, right?" The emperor also thinks that there is merit in this matter, and wants us to investigate whether it is feasible. ”

"Got it, I'll find someone to prepare for this."

"Research first, don't rush to implement, take your time." Gu Ci admonished, saw Ah Sheng's eyes shining beside him, and twisted his face with a smile, "Little ghost, if you have something to say here, it's not in the way." ”

"Mother, when Professor Gao explained the history of Qin, he said that the first emperor built the Ling Canal in order to control Baiyue and protect Lingnan for all eternity, didn't we also build a West Canal to Annan, and we can't subdue Annan?"

"Qin Lingqu went to the Han Dynasty to conquer Nanyue, but it has been more than a hundred years, we can't wait so long, we have to hurry up and let them submit."

"Why?"

Gu Ci was stunned for a moment, how to explain to his son the speed and threat of the expansion of the Western colonial empire?

“…… Ask your dad to go! ”

***********************

The garrison of Duan Ang's Pingnan Army has been moved to Xinming City, part of which is fortified at the main passes of the Southern Silk Road to protect and maintain trade routes along the way, and part of which is led by Chi Qiyu, starting from Leiduo, 'borrowing' Tianzhu, entering Tawang, Yadong and Nyingchi in southern Tibet.

Guan Dayuan, the deputy general of the Jingxi Army, set out from Xining, where he was stationed, swept Amdo, put pressure on Kangba, and together with Chi Qiyu, monitored and guarded Tibet, preventing it from going east to Longnan City to invade the Central Plains (Longnan City, Longxi City and Wudu City are the original Yumen Pass, Yanmen Pass and Yangguan), and the path to the south of the Sanjiang Plateau, even the possibility of breaking west into the Green Ridge and breaking into Tarim was stifled by the mercenaries of Mingjin.

The semi-encirclement has been completed, and Rong Lin can finally show his skills.

At the behest of the Privy Council, he discussed with Gaden Tripa, Cho Gyaltsen and the Lang family behind him about which meritorious people should be awarded in the future to replace Sakya. The Privy Council believes that the difference between Pazhu and Sakya is that Sakya can command Tibetan areas only after obtaining the title of Dingchao, but Pazhu is fought from the grassroots and will definitely be dispersed in the future. For Dayu, a Tibetan with scattered political power from the pope to the government is safer than one with unified politics and religion, so even the Sakya sect among the four major popes should not be destroyed, but can be sent to Tangnu Mountain and Hanhai to 'reform' the people in the forest there.

Rong Lin's mission was not to participate in the political and religious disputes in Tibet, but to go to the Kang-Tibet Plateau to fight guerrillas with such a will, nominally to return the jade seal given to Sakya Benqin by the Ding Dynasty, but in fact to inform the Pope and the sects in this area of Dayu's attitude, so that they could unite and help Dayu clean up the disobedient Sakya, and then sit together in a row to divide the fruits. As for the Huangjiao, Pazhu and Lang who came first, they naturally got the most fruits. In addition to Ganden Chiba, the Yellow Sect made the front Tibet**, and let the people of the Lang family do the back Tibet**. Isn't the Kagyu sect scattering sand, asking them to nominate a living Buddha to accept the appointment of the imperial court. The same is true of the Red Sect, if it doesn't work, it will be appointed by the imperial court. The Sakya regime was to be extinguished, but the Flower Cult was to be preserved, and the government allocated funds to support a few young monks and old scholars, and no longer accept secular offerings, nor did monks be allowed to hold any secular positions. With the premise of the Flower Sect, it is the greatest consummation that the sect and the political regime can be separated step by step in the future.

The use of the temple as a place of pure spiritual study, passing the government and the examination of the living Buddha, and obtaining the title of pope, is very much recognized by Gaden Tripa, which means that even the sect or nobles who hold secular power cannot tamper with and control the sect as a tool for their power and profit. The monastery can further accept the worship of everyone, or intervene independently in the evolution of the regime, and take a step back to end up like the Flower Sect and concentrate on the study of the scriptures.

Gaining the approval of Gaden Tripa should be the greatest achievement that Rong Lin has worked hard for all these years, and after the above-mentioned principles of cake distribution were introduced, he finally obtained the approval of the Divine Sect to work with Qu Gyaltsen as a Sakya!

Qu Gyaltsen received the edict and the golden seal from Dayu, and once again took advantage of the Sakya civil strife to unite with one of them and drive the Sakya forces out of Houzang. Qu Gyaltsen was busy controlling Houzang, and Rong Lin continued to pursue Sakya Bunchen, and finally completely defeated Sakya's remaining forces after a few months, and returned the Great Seal of the Ding Dynasty. At this point, his task was successfully completed at the beginning of the seventh year of Shenzong, and he took Qu Gyaltsen, Lang's family, Ganden Chiba and other envoys and living Buddhas from various factions and departments like him, and went to Shangjing to pay tribute and ask for a seal.

The Tubo people, who originally wanted to gather a crowd to bargain, happened to be invited to see the grand occasion of the reserve military exercise of the four armies, so they all calmly accepted the edict of Shenzong. Qu Gyaltsen was the empowerment king, giving jade seals, platinum, Bacha, etc., Ganden Triba was the ** lama, the Lang clan's Huangjiao Zhaba was awarded the title of **Erdeni, and there were eight titles second only to their 'Hutu Ketu'. The reincarnation system of the ten living Buddhas is the same, and they must be canonized by the imperial court to preside over the golden vase casting ceremony, give them a seal, and register them in the Honglu Temple. The eight eminent monks each have their own fields and monasteries in Xi, and they usually stay in Beijing for half a year and inspect the territory once every six months. The Ali region is the White Sect Ngawang Drakpa and the Flower Sect Minjur. Nona and ** in Qamdo are the Red Religion and the White Religion, respectively. Nagqu's Jiamuxiang is a Red Sect, Jilong Muka is a White Sect, Nyingchi's Dimu belongs to the Flower Sect, and Jialaguo is a Red Sect. Both of them are seven or eight-year-olds.

As for the manors, fields, and slaves under the original names of the Flower Sect and Sakya, all of them were auctioned or redeemed by the first 'Kangzang Cloth Political Envoy', and the one who was automatically invited to serve was Qiao Zhen, who had been in the post of prefect of Zhengsipin Fubo City for ten years. The greatest hero, Rong Lin, was promoted to the governor of Kangzang in the Jingxi Army, and he guarded Khotan, and may have a war with the Mughurs in the future.

Later, as a die-hard fan, Huangjiao received two additional honors - first, all the rivers and valleys flowing to Tianzhu in the Ali area, such as Pulan and Zada, were stationed in Xixi by Huangjiao Zhugu to cooperate with local mercenaries to consolidate the defense; Second, the senior monks of the Yellow Sect can follow the Zhenbei Army to go deep into the desert to preach and build temples. Of course, it is also necessary to encourage honest Mughal followers to donate money to become monks, to visit the temple regularly to fix their whereabouts, and to let them have fewer children and more sutras.
