In fact, not only the Ziqian family conspired against the silver bills, but even the court's three businesses of the bank were in an uproar, after all, paper can be used as silver, which is a strange news in the world, but the Mo family actually succeeded.

"Your Majesty, the Mo family's issuance of bills of exchange, which is worth one hundred, is simply a bandit way, and once I have pacified the world, I have never dared that bandit to be so bold." Yu Zhining angrily denounced Mo Jiazi's bill of exchange business, and even compared Mo Jiazi's bill of exchange business to bandits who blocked the road and robbed.

"What's even more outrageous is that Mo Jiazi's check business, using paper as money, is simply a miracle in the world!" A Wenchen echoed and rebuked.

Since his son used Mo Jiazi's check, he spent hundreds of yuan in just a few days, Mo Jiazi used paper as money, and his son simply spent money as paper.

"Your Majesty, Weichen impeached the Mo family for stealing the people's fat and people's ointment, and sending it to the workers with paper money, which is simply a bone sucking the marrow, extremely greedy, and the people's anger is monstrous, which is even more outrageous than the white deer coin of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty." An imperial historian roared indignantly.

The white deer coin is the Han Dynasty when Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was in financial crisis, forcibly sold the skin of the white deer to the magnates, it is said that the most expensive time, a white deer coin directly sold for 400,000 yuan, but in the end it was worthless, becoming a decoration. And Mo Jiazi's silver ticket business is even more hateful in the eyes of the ministers, the white deer skin is still a treasure item, a little valuable, and Mo Jiazi actually wrote the amount directly on the paper, as money, in the eyes of the stubborn, it is simply to press their IQ to the ground and rub it.

The ministers were filled with righteous indignation, and immediately turned into Bao Qingtian, asking for the lives of the people, avenging the workers, and crusading against the biggest capitalist, Mo Jiazi.

Li Shimin couldn't help but cover his forehead with a headache, he naturally knew about the opening of the bank by this kid Moton, he originally thought that the bank was just a place for the Mo family to deposit money, but he didn't expect the Mo family to be so big, so that the Tang people's understanding of money was simply shocking.

"Criminal Department, can any people sue Mojia Village?" Li Shimin's heart turned, and he turned his head to ask Li Daozong, the secretary of the Criminal Department.

Li Daozong shook his head and said: "Back to Your Majesty, no people have come to Mojia Village to complain, and according to the ministers, whether it is a bill of exchange, a silver bill or a check, as long as they go to the Mojia Village Bank, they can be exchanged for cash in full color, and there is no deduction, and the matter of greedy ink has occurred." ”

Li Daozong and Merton were more familiar, and finally said a fair word for Merton.

Li Shimin nodded and said: "Since the three kinds of bills can be exchanged for equal amounts of silver taels, the people have no loss, and there is a lot of convenience, how can the imperial court interfere too much." ”

Many ministers nodded one after another, and everyone in the court was a brilliant person who was the best in the Tang Dynasty, and a discerning person knew that the bank was much better than the notorious money bank.

"Your Majesty think twice!" Yu Zhining exclaimed bitterly, "Your Majesty has ever thought that now Mojia Village will maintain its reputation, and it will naturally be paid in full unconditionally, but in time, Mojia Village will be short of money, how can it not embezzle these money." At that time, bills of exchange, silver bills, and checks will be reduced to a piece of waste paper, and the people will surely suffer heavy losses, or even have nothing left. ”

"It can't be!"

"How can the Mo family allow these things to happen."

Everyone couldn't help but be in an uproar, if it was true that these bills of exchange and silver bills were reduced to a piece of waste paper, then the chaos caused would be beaten.

"This ......" Li Shimin couldn't help but pause, and hesitated in his heart, although he believed in Merton, but since ancient times, money has moved people's hearts, and who can guarantee it!

"Prevention is the best way to cure the problem, and if you wait until the day of the accident, I am afraid that it will be too late to say anything.

"What do you mean by Aiqing......" Li Shimin frowned and asked.

A servant of the Ministry of Civil Affairs and Yu Zhining glanced at each other vaguely, and proudly said: "Your Majesty, Weichen believes that since Mojia Village has issued silver tickets, let Mojia Village deposit the equivalent of the silver tickets issued in the Ministry of Civil Affairs, so that even if Mojia Village declines, the court will come forward to compensate, and the people will not suffer losses." ”

"The equivalent value of silver taels is deposited in the Ministry of Civil Affairs?" Suddenly, the officials of the Manchu Dynasty were stunned by the words of the Ministry of Civil Affairs.

Although more people knew that it was inappropriate, they remained silent in the face of such great interests, and Dai Guan, headed by the Ministry of Civil Affairs, moved in his heart and sighed, but did not speak.

"In my opinion, the Ministry of Civil Affairs is poor and crazy! Just now, you were still denouncing the Mo family as bandits in the mountains, don't you think your behavior is more hateful than bandits? Qin Qiong couldn't hold back any longer and scolded angrily.

"Especially when these robbers are still forcibly plundering other people's wealth in the absence of their masters." Cheng Yanjin smiled and said sarcastically.

Many officials couldn't help but blush, but they were able to sit in the position of the court, which one of them was not thick-faced and black-hearted, and they turned a deaf ear at all.

Yu Zhining stepped forward and retorted: "What General Qin said is biased, and we are only for the people of the world. ”

Wei Chi Jingde snorted coldly: "The silver ticket is only used in Mojia Village, which is the fief of Mohou, and it is all Mojia villagers, how can it endanger other people, if I can't even do this in my own fiefdom, wouldn't it be a joke." ”

Many princes with fiefs couldn't help but look embarrassed, in fact, on the fiefdom, as long as you don't rebel, or kill the people, their autonomy is great, and the silver ticket is only implemented in Mojia Village, it can be said that the Mo family is already extremely restrained, and there is no suspicion of deviance.

Li Shimin saw that the princes were dissatisfied, and his expression flashed: "This kid Mo Dun has always wanted to revive the Mo family, and the Mo family village is the foundation of the Mo family. ”

Yu Zhining retorted: "Your Majesty, today's Mojia Village is not only the children of the Mo family, but the foreign population accounts for the majority, especially the Mojia Village has recently built a lot of houses in Mojia Village, attracting many people to buy, plus foreign workers and merchants, the foreign population is as much as 30,000, these are not Mojia villagers!" ”

"There are also bills of exchange and checks that are prevalent in Chang'an City, which are not a small hidden danger." The civil servant said loudly.

Suddenly, the ministers argued, some thought that the Ministry of Civil Affairs was making a big fuss, and some thought that the Ministry of Household was quite forward-looking, and they immediately quarreled.

"I don't know what your opinion is." Seeing this, Li Shimin couldn't help but set his eyes on the important ministers headed by him.

The important ministers couldn't help but look at each other, to be honest, they were also confused about the bank's business, after glancing at each other, Fang Xuanling reluctantly said: "Your Majesty, the bill of exchange business Weichen has also heard that although the bank is worth one hundred, it is already worth it compared to the risk of transporting silver two for a long distance, which is a good thing, as for the silver bill and check, it is even more so that the allusion of a promise can be realized." ”

Qin Qiong and the others nodded one after another, in their opinion, the bank was simply a stroke of genius.

However, Fang Xuanling's voice changed and said, "As for the risks that the Minbu Servant and Lord Yu are worried about, it is not unreasonable. ”

"Old fox!"

The ministers couldn't help but curse in their hearts, Fang Xuanling went around and didn't say anything.

"However, with the old minister's understanding of Mohou. He is extremely steady, if he is summoned to the Taiji Hall and solved his doubts in public, there must be a proper solution. Fang Xuanling said.

"Summoning Morton to court." Li Shimin couldn't help but pause.

I don't know when, the whole court seems to be very repulsive to Merton, after all, next to a group of gray-haired old men, there is a yellow-haired boy, it can be said that everyone is not suitable.

In addition, Merton's official position is not high, and he doesn't like to go to court, unless it is necessary, I'm afraid no one thinks of summoning Merton to the court, and with Merton's only few experiences in the court, this kid can always do big things.

Li Shimin thought about it, I'm afraid that now there is only one way to summon Morton to the court.

"Someone, call me for Merton!" At that moment, Li Shimin no longer hesitated and said loudly.

"Weichen see Your Majesty!"

Merton walked into the Taiji Hall with his head held high and said loudly.

To be honest, he is still confused, before he came, he carefully reflected on what he had done recently, and it didn't seem that there was anything to anger the public! How could he be recruited to the Taiji Palace?

Li Shimin didn't know what to say, so he had to say: "Merton, I summoned you today, because the hundred officials want to play against you." ”

Merton turned to Baiguan, patted his chest and said, "My lords, please ask, the kid must know everything. ”

Seeing Merton's frank appearance, many ministers couldn't help but feel ashamed, it seemed that they were indeed too bullying, but thinking of Mo Jiazi's past achievements, in an instant, everyone left this sympathy behind.

Yu Zhining would not be confused by Mo Jiazi's honest appearance, and snorted coldly at the moment: "Merton, you don't have to be so pretendious, you used to mess around, and we only waited for you to be young and frivolous, but this time, you are so greedy and wantonly absorb the people's fat and ointment, it is simply lawless." ”

Merton was suddenly surprised: "The kid didn't hold the position of a civil official, so it was too reluctant for Lord Yu to slander the kid for absorbing the people's fat and people's ointment!" ”

Many civil officials have a feeling of repercussions in their hearts, what does it mean to not serve as a civil official, they have not absorbed the people's fat and the people's anointing, and they regard them as civil officials.

Cheng Yanjin and other generals immediately grinned when they heard this, laughed unscrupulously, and saw that Morton was still sharp-toothed, and the worry in his heart suddenly disappeared.

"Merton must not talk nonsense, just answer your questions truthfully!" Li Shimin's face turned blank and stopped Merton's nonsense.

Yu Zhining and the others held back for a long time, and then they calmed down and angrily counted the three major crimes of Mojia Village Bank

"The bill of exchange sits on the ground and collects money! It's like bandits and robbers blocking the road and robbing ................... ”

"The silver ticket was snatched by ingenuity, and the villagers were robbed of the fat and ointment ..................."

"Cheques are demagoguery, profligate, extravagant, and ............lascivious."

With Yu Zhining's accusations one by one, Mo Dun suddenly realized, and immediately knew the purpose of these people, maybe some people are really worried about the country and the people, but more I am afraid that Mojia Village is full of money, to be honest, anyone who sees Mojia Village using a bank to double its property out of thin air, I am afraid that his eyes will be red with jealousy.

At that moment, Merton sneered: "Since ancient times, there has been a warning in the world, that is, wealth is not exposed. A few copper coins may not be tempted, but the silver in vain has made it in the cases of the Criminal Department, and there are countless cases of people being stolen, robbed and even killed for money on the way out. The bill of exchange business must be received by the person or the designated person, it can be said that the risk of letting the people carry money is greatly reduced, but I didn't expect to be slandered as a robber and bandit, which really makes Mo feel cold! ”

Li Daozong, the leader, couldn't help nodding, since ancient times, wealth has moved people's hearts, and examples of murder abound, coupled with the backward technology of solving cases, such cases are extremely difficult to detect, so that the criminal department has a large backlog of cases, and the appearance of bills of exchange has greatly reduced the risk of carrying gold and silver, which can be said to have reduced a lot of pressure on the criminal department.

The reason why the bill of exchange business in Mojia Village is so popular is precisely for this reason, in this era, it is a very risky thing to carry a large amount of silver taels, if the silver taels are exchanged for bills of exchange in the bank, when you need to go to the bank to get them, and even some transactions can be carried out in the bank in person, which is extremely safe.

"Banks are taking advantage of this psychology of the world, which is worth one out of a hundred, like bandits sitting on the ground to collect money." Tobe snorted coldly.

Merton laughed and said, "This lord compares the bank to bandits, but there is a limerick poem about bandits, I wonder if you would be interested in listening to it." ”

"Bandits' limericks! Bandits can also make poems! Everyone couldn't help laughing, but many civil officials couldn't help but cast their contemptuous eyes on the military generals on the side, you must know that in the court, there are many generals who were born as anti-thieves back then, and the bandits' business is not less.

"I'd like to hear about it, too." Li Shimin said with interest.

As if he hadn't seen the strangeness of the hundred officials, Merton said loudly: "I opened this mountain, and I planted this tree." To get over this road,........................。 ”

"Leave the money to buy the road!" Surprisingly, before Merton could finish speaking, he heard an angry shout from among the generals.

Everyone was stunned for a moment, and when they turned their heads, it turned out to be the proud Cheng Biting Jin, who took the last sentence.

"I said Mo boy, you even know the slogan of the old man being a bandit back then?" Cheng Yanjin said with a look of surprise.

Qin Qiong on the side scolded with a smile: "Is it still a hidden thing for your old boy to be a bandit, there are a few people in the world who don't know." ”

Cheng Yanjin was not ashamed but proudly said: "The old man was a righteous bandit back then, but he didn't want to kill his life, as long as the business traveler paid the toll, Lao Tzu will never be embarrassed." And keep it all the way. ”

The other generals who had fallen into the grass couldn't help but feel a little proud, and they naturally wouldn't be as short-sighted as ordinary bandits if they were able to get to this point.

Morton said with a smile: "General Cheng's slogan can be spoken roughly, this mountain is open for me, this tree is planted by me, if you want to cross this road, leave to buy road money, Mojia Village is preparing to set up a bank, not only spent a lot of money to invite the public loser to build the safest silver vault, has spent a lot of manpower and material resources, research and development of various secret codes, but also the risk of losing gold and silver borne by the people to the bank, is it too much to charge only a fee worth one hundred?" ”

Many people nodded one after another, and everyone only saw Mojia Village Bank eating meat, but they didn't see the risk paid by Mojia Village Bank, not to mention that Mojia Village Bank even limited the fee worth one hundred to the same money, which was already a conscience price.

"If even this court is against it, then I don't know what you think of the brick road toll!" Merton retorted coldly.

Yu Zhining and the others couldn't help but grow their mouths, and they couldn't say anything, compared to the behavior of the Mojia Village Bank worth one out of a hundred, the imperial court blocked the road on the Longhai Line and collected tolls, I am afraid that it is even more solid for the bandits to play limericks.

"What about silver tickets and checks? If one day Mojiacun Bank is unable to pay the cash, who should bear the risk? Yu Zhining argued strongly.

When Mo Dun heard this, he couldn't help but be silent for a while: "You are right about this, there is indeed a big risk in this, if Mojia Village cannot cash these silver bills and checks, it is indeed a piece of waste paper, worthless." ”

The ministers of the Manchu Dynasty couldn't help but be in an uproar, they had just been dumbfounded by Mo Jiazi in the bill of exchange business with bandits' limericks, originally thought that on the silver bills and checks, Mo Jiazi would still quibble, but they didn't expect Mo Jiazi to admit it without resistance.

In an instant, Yu Zhining and the others couldn't help but smile at the success of their tricks, the bill of exchange business is dispensable, and their focus has always been on the silver bills, as long as they control the cash of Mojia Village, they naturally have the means to make it difficult for Mojia Village to move an inch.
