Chapter 396: Degraded Praetorian Guard
The brand-new copper coins made those who had a large amount of gold at home unable to sit still, and joined the ranks of exchanging them one after another, and in four days, more than 50 million copper coins of the Great Song Bank were swept away, and the secret rooms of Nuoda looked empty.
Fan Chunyou wiped the sweat from his forehead and said: "Finally, it's not so crazy, Hanzhang You know that my heart is in my throat this afternoon, and the copper coins in the secret room are so ordered, or you have a big heart and ignore it." ”
Lu Zifei said: "The previous waves of offensives are within our expectations, what is there to worry about, the turnover in the second half of today has decreased, but you are too busy to find out." ”
Zhao Hao, who was next to him, picked up the account book and looked at it roughly, and asked in surprise: "Lu Hou, how did you know that there were fewer people exchanging it?" ”
Lu Zifei said: "Because the money in the basement has not been exchanged"
"It's as simple as that," Zhao Hao said with his mouth wide open.
"Then how difficult do you think it is, the money is prepared by me, how can I not count how much gold and silver can be exchanged, the extremes must be reversed, the number of people who exchange must have been discovered, but it doesn't matter, our goal has been achieved."
Fan Chunyou said: "Yes! We finally won this war, and to be honest, I haven't closed my eyes since the bank opened, and now it's okay, and the climax is over and the rest is a temporary plateau. ”
Lu Zifei said: "To prevent them from jumping over the wall in a hurry, Bianjing's financial market is saturated, and there can no longer be a large amount of copper money entering Bianjing, otherwise under the bubble economy, Bianjing will return to before liberation overnight." ”
Li Lin said: "There will be no copper money entering Beijing from Mayi's side for the time being, the bank may have some rebound tomorrow, and there may be more people exchanging gold, so we should be wary of this." ”
Lu Zifei said: "We must discount the exchange of copper coins with insufficient fineness, everything is going with our plan, tell the people below, hold on for a few more days, and I will give you a big red envelope when the time comes." ”
As soon as the bank's affairs came to an end, Lu Zifei could boldly go to Liaoguo, and it was not his turn to worry about the rest of the affairs in the Sansi Yamen, and he didn't want to get involved too much, after all, his level was not enough.
Zhang Fangping, Wang Yaochen, and Zhao Hao, three people related to money, sat quietly on the chair and waited for the emperor's departure, Zhao Zhen's smile was dry, Zhao Hao forgot it, an inexperienced young man could understand.
But the three envoys and the two people who were in charge of the economic lifeline of the Great Song Dynasty couldn't see how the bank operated, and they only knew about it, and they couldn't get to the point.
"Zhang Aiqing, the bank, you can say that you are participating in the whole process, and that kid has nowhere to avoid you, you don't feel ashamed of your answer."
Zhang Fangping fell to the ground and said, "On the surface, it is indeed not profitable!" Wei Chen didn't understand where the bank was weird, what did Lord Wang have to say. ”
Wang Yaochen said: "Regardless of whether he makes money or not, he just feels that such a large amount of money should not be controlled by private individuals. ”
Zhao Zhen used tea to hide his embarrassment, he can't say that he is the biggest boss behind the scenes of Da Song Bank! As the emperor, he can fail, he can lose money, but he must not be kept in the dark, which is why he has to try to figure out the bank.
I don't know the relationship between the economy, finance, and capital, and the bank is no different from reading the book of heaven for them, and they just want to know how the bank makes money, but in fact, they are looking for the wrong person, and the boss or shopkeeper of the money bank is the right person.
The time soon came the day before their envoy to Liao, Liang Shi, as the chief envoy, spoke, and they all came to the Yamen of the Ministry of Rites, everyone met, don't go to Liao, one doesn't know the other.
"You're Hanzhang! I've heard that your food is unique, and I'm already salivating. ”
Lu Zifei looked at this young man who was not much older than himself and said, "This is simple, the junior brother is waiting for you at any time." This sounded a little awkward, Lu Zifei seemed to have seen this person, but he just couldn't name him.
Zhang Tangqing said with a smile: "Forget about Hanzhang!" Zhang Xiyuan, we met in Luoyang, how old am you, and how long will we work together later? Don't be so polite, I'm embarrassed. ”
This name Lu Zifei is like thunder, before he didn't win the champion, Wang Gongchen and Zhang Tangqing were the two most prestigious champions of the Great Song Dynasty, the thirty-year-old Shaoqing of Taichang Temple, the promotion speed was not worse than his own, and even surpassed, the important thing is that he has been to Liao once.
"Little brother is very honored to work with Master Zhang, you are a senior in this area, you can help the little brother more when you come to Liao."
Zhang Tangqing said: "The more you talk about this, the more energetic you are, we will call each other by name among our peers, don't engage in those vain things." ”
Lu Zifei clenched his fists and said: "Then the little brother is respectful, it is better to obey his fate." ”
"That's right, let me tell you that I am also very researched about food, and we must discuss it more on the way."
"Little brother may not be as good as Brother Zhang in other aspects, but when it comes to eating, I'm afraid that Brother Zhang will be too faceless." Lu Zifei said with a smile.
Zhang Tangqing didn't mind at all and said: "If you want me to admit defeat, it depends on your ability, Hanzhang, don't talk about it, but when it comes to actually doing it, you don't dare to go into battle." ”
When the two of them were chatting energetically, another person came to the door, and it happened that this person Lu Zifei knew each other again, and the relationship was not bad.
"Master Gu, you won't be the other deputy envoy this time!"
Gu Xuanze said with a smile: "Lu Langzhong guessed it, I am indeed another deputy envoy in your mouth, and it is much easier to have you in my heart." ”
Lu Zifei pointed at Zhang Tangqing and said: "This is Zhang Xiyuan, the young secretary of Taichang Temple, and he is also the deputy envoy this time, it just so happens that we also know each other, it seems that this envoy will not be lonely." ”
Liang Shi coughed, sat on the main seat, several junior brothers hurriedly saluted, Liang Shi said with satisfaction: "It seems that the three of you get along well, I won't introduce myself, I believe you all know each other, and then I will assign us to the work of the Liao State." ”
"Why I went, it's very simple, because a few of you don't have enough weight, but this mission seems to be dominated by me, but it actually depends on Xi Yuan's play, Gu Xuanze, you are responsible for logistics and records, I won't talk about Lu Langzhong, we will hand over a few hundred catties of meat to you."
The humorous but majestic words made the three subordinates listen very seriously, and Lu Zifei said: "My lord, where are the people of this mission guard!" I'm leaving tomorrow, and I haven't seen anyone yet. ”
Liang Shi said: "The people who rely on this piece will follow me tomorrow morning, and you will go to the front of the palace to order 1,500 people in a while, and follow us as a guard, do you two have any questions?" ”
"Nope"
"Okay, that's it, let's go home early today and get together with my family, goodbye will be the first in the cold winter." Liang Shishun mentioned this.
Out of the palace, Zhang Tangqing said: "I won't accompany you to the front of Hanzhang Palace, your sister-in-law is pregnant at home, I am a little worried." ”
Gu Xuanze looked at Zhang Tangqing and said: "This champion is a character, with the support of Jia Changchao, it is only a matter of time before Jiaolong enters the sea." ”
Lu Zifei smiled and said, "Lord Gu, you don't want to be a good judge of Kaifeng Mansion Prison, and you take this risk." ”
"Kaifeng Mansion is peaceful under the governance of Lord Bao, I think it's better to go out and relax, and Lord Bao is not very worried about you, don't underestimate me, I am a person who has led the army and fought a war."
It's really good to have elders in the back to help you, and after agreeing to meet tomorrow, Lu Zifei went to the palace front division barracks, although the palace front division military camp is also in Kaifeng, but the weather is too hot.
The front division of the palace is split from the inspection of the front of the palace, since the first day of the founding of the Great Song Dynasty, it is the elite of the elite, there has never been an army that can take his place, Taizu and Taizong have several northern expeditions, and the front division of the palace is the main force, Lu Zifei came to the barracks with great hopes, and he was disappointed at first sight.
The guards were open-armed, and their weapons were not known where they were thrown, lying crookedly at the door to enjoy the shade, and they had lost their vigilance without war for decades, and Lu Zifei couldn't imagine that they would encounter the enemy's surprise attack in such a state.
If the people inside were like these people, Lu Zifei was wondering if they could really take on the heavy responsibility of defending the capital? Lu Zifei and the guards were only one step away from the barracks before they were stopped.
"Who you are, you know what kind of place this is."
Lu Zifei said: "I want to see your commander."
"Who are you! Is it the commander you can see if you want to? If it weren't for the fact that you were wearing an official uniform, I would have to drive people out, so stay cool, don't be annoying, I still want to see the commander in green skin, it's really a toad yawning, what a big breath. ”
Lu Zifei was already roasted by the sun with endocrine disorders, and then he was added to the crack in the door to see, my temper can get used to you.
"See clearly, I am the captain of the guard who will send an envoy to Liao tomorrow, and I will transfer people in front of the palace, if I let a few of you dogs delay the departure time, do you guess that Commander Li will pick your skin."
These people watch the door all day long, and it is their basic skill to be able to bend and stretch, and they made a color to the person next to them, and they smiled and said: "It turned out to be Lord Qincha, you have a lot of knowledge, don't be like a small one." ”
Lu Zifei is lazy to talk to him, even if you hold on to it, you can't do anything to them, it's better to save some saliva, I don't know how much water in my body will be lost if I say a word on such a hot day?
After waiting for a cup of tea, the person who went to report came back and said, "Our commander said that he knows the purpose of your coming, let us take you into the camp to pick people, you see?" ”
What else can you say, people don't want to see you, you can't be cheeky and lean in! After entering the barracks, Lu Zifei thought that he had come to the pig's nest, and he really didn't know how these people could stand this smell.
"When you fight, you may be able to smoke the enemy to death with this smell."
The person who led the way naturally knew that Lu Zifei was sarcastic, and said curtly: "They are all men, so it is inevitable that there will be some taste."
Is this inevitable for you? Lu Zifei, a military camp of 100,000 people, didn't see the soldiers patrolling the camp, there was snoring everywhere, and he didn't look like a Praetorian Guard, which was a bit far from what he imagined!
