After listening to the three of them, Emperor Yuan Yong also noticed that something was wrong, and secretly annoyed in his heart, the King of Beijing and several people actually played the trick of attacking the west, no wonder the impeachment of the Zhaoxin Bureau has been increasing in recent days, fortunately it was discovered early, otherwise the matter of the national debt will be variable, so he asked the three of them how to deal with it.

The three of them had already discussed properly, and when they saw the emperor asking, Zhou Kun hurriedly said: "Now that more and more people are concerned about this matter, and they are frequently putting pressure on the minister, I am afraid that they will be provoked, and the minister suggests that this matter should be resolved as soon as possible." ”

Emperor Yuan Yong was noncommittal when he heard this, so he looked at Lu Jing.

Seeing this, Lu Jing groaned: "Now those court officials who bought fake treasury bonds have been provoked by them to be angry and turn the spearhead to the Zhaoxin Bureau. ”

Emperor Yuanyong's face was a little ugly after hearing this, and he wanted to use this incident to provoke their anger against Xungui and buy people's hearts again, but now it seems that he is being used by Xungui, and the final result may backfire.

Lu Jing saw that Emperor Yuanyong had some intentions, so he continued to persuade: "At present, we can take the initiative to bear and have a good reputation for responsibility, and it can also show that no matter what difficulties the imperial court encounters, we must carry out the national debt to the end, and shape the credibility of the imperial court and the Zhaoxin Bureau. ”

After hearing this, Emperor Yuan Yong's expression was burning and said: "In this case, tomorrow morning, the court will solve this matter, and the solution will be according to what you played before." ”

The three of them were relieved when they heard this, Zhou Kun was the chief official of the Zhaoxin Bureau, and if something happened to the Zhaoxin Bureau, he would bear the brunt.

Lu Jing regards the Zhaoxin Bureau as a key part of his future layout, and will never allow the Zhaoxin Bureau to become a victim of the struggle between the two forces.

Although Huang Yongzhong has little to do with the Zhaoxin Bureau, the national debt is involved in the selection of imperial businessmen, and he hopes to resolve the matter as soon as possible.

After the three of them left the palace, they discussed it again and went home.

After Lu Jing arrived home, he was extremely dissatisfied with Xungui's actions and was ready to fight back, so he wrote a long poem and instructed Lu Zheng to spread it secretly to add fuel to this battle, first, to temporarily distract the attention of both sides, and second, to promote the end of the matter as soon as possible, so as not to affect the selection of imperial businessmen and the issuance of treasury bonds again.

On September 24, eight days had passed since the fake treasury bond incident.

In the early dynasty, Emperor Yuan Yong first denounced Han Qi, Gu Zhou and others for their audacity and recklessness, forging fake national bonds to undermine the new policy of the imperial court, and endangering the country's finances, and the crime is not punishable.

Later, he made an impassioned speech, stating that the national debt is a national policy, and no matter what difficulties it encounters, the imperial court will stick to it and be responsible to the end.

Then he expressed his determination to implement the new policy, and although the imperial court suffered huge losses, it would still bear this matter and restore the credibility of the national debt and the credibility of the imperial court.

After the end of the early dynasty, Emperor Yuan Yong summoned Lu Jing, Zhou Kun, and Huang Yongzhong and instructed them to deal with the finishing work of this matter as soon as possible and not to make any mistakes.

On the same day, the Ministry of Household Affairs and the Ministry of Internal Affairs posted a notice stating that anyone who had purchased fake treasury bonds could exchange the fake treasury bonds for real treasury bonds at the Shoshin Bureau as long as they brought the purchase agreement issued by the Shoshin Bureau.

As soon as this news came out, holders of treasury bonds flocked to the Zhaoxin Bureau, and most of them were difficult to distinguish between the real and the fake, and came to the Zhaoxin Bureau for verification.

Seeing this, Lu Jing set up another hall to distinguish between the real and the fake, and sent people to be responsible for distinguishing the authenticity of the national debt, and if it was found to be fake, let them go to the main hall to exchange for the real one, and re-sign the agreement.

The new agreement signing process has four more points than before: first, the handler is only responsible for signing the agreement, and the purchaser can go to the cashier to collect the treasury bonds by virtue of the agreement; Second, the purchaser needs to go to the audit office to fill in the amount of treasury bonds purchased, and the auditor will compare the agreement; Third, after the process is completed, there will be a verifier to verify the signature; Fourth, reconciliation will be carried out every day, and the accounting team will be rotated and replaced regularly.

And set up a reporting system, if you find that there is a problem in the process of others, you can report, once verified, the whistleblower will be rewarded, but if found and concealed and not reported, the responsibility is the same as the wrongdoer, will be heavily punished.

This not only fills the loopholes in the previous process, but also assigns responsibility to people, so that staff at all levels can restrain and supervise each other, reducing the probability of occurrence.

Although the process is a lot more complicated, the detailed division of labor has not been reduced.

This matter was planned by Lu Jing behind the scenes, but Chen Ting proposed it in a letter, and after many discussions and deliberations by Feng Yanji, Zhou Kun and other household officials, it was adopted and implemented.

Chen Ting was also promoted to head of the Supervision Office and the Training Office.

Zhou Kun knew the relationship between Chen Ting and Lu Jing, and promoted Chen Ting to repay Lu Jing's favor, and secondly to win over Chen Ju.

In this national debt incident, if it weren't for Lu Jing's wit, I'm afraid he would have resigned and returned to his hometown, so he was more grateful to Lu Jing, and Chen Ting was Chen Ju's son-in-law, so he could also use this to sell well to Chen Ju and get Chen Ju's support.

Now the emperor is more and more dissatisfied with the secretary of the military department and the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, and wants to remove the two.

At first, everyone's attention was attracted by the announcement of the Shoshin Bureau and they did not pay attention to it, but as the "Crab Poem" spread more and more widely, its content quickly caused a huge discussion between the government and the opposition.

Guozijian Lancui Pavilion, the pavilion is on the first couplet:

A few pots of wine, a few cups of tea, a brief discussion, express your feelings;

A furnace of incense, five volumes of scriptures, rambling about the warp and weft, moral articles.

In the pavilion, Shen Liang was talking with five friends about the "Crab Poem" that spread today.

Bingshen went to Beijing in the autumn and twilight, set up a hundred miles in the sacrificial tent, the road was blocked and long, and the mourning shook the imperial capital, when there were many people with sadness, the degree was a new mourning of the important ministers, and the country lost a pillar, how could it be that there was only one sin. Both feel and sigh, the people of the Manchu Dynasty are full of scholars, taken by the power and prestige, and do not dare to speak against the courtesy, I write poems to remember it.

The iron armor is full of madness, and it is rampant and unscrupulous.

The ridges and fields hurt the crops, and the greed is hidden in the belly.

The original form is dewed and the rope is bound, and the round eyes are angry and the mouth is foaming.

The son without intestines lacks heart and liver, and has no skin and hollow black and yellow.

Mo is fearless in armor, and the shell is convex and the robe is red and the steaming room.

Retribution is clear, and it is inevitable that you will peel the umbilicus and fold the claws with green onions and ginger.

Gui haze chrysanthemum fence gluttonous guests, Tong Ying deep sitting up.

Qi Ge mourned the aftermath of his death, and he was very arrogant in his desire to take advantage of Houde.

From now on, there is no straight road in the world, and there is no square in the rules.

The sages should be sad under the spring, what is the Lang Lang Qiankun ceremony?

Shen Liang sighed: "I don't know who wrote this poem, it makes people ashamed to read it, the ceremony is the sage and sage, through the country, the society, the people, the heirs, but now it is wantonly destroyed, my generation is silent!" ”

After hearing this, his classmate and friend Cao Huan said with a hard heart: "Yes, let's read the books of the sages, how can we shame the sages!" ”

"Although we are just students and are not allowed to discuss politics, we should also speak out about such a violation of etiquette!" Shen Liang said with a serious face.

"Etiquette is righteousness, righteousness is profit, benefits are for the common people, and the political festival is also, we must stop this!" Cao Huan also said with a solemn face.

"That's right, it's incumbent on you to maintain the etiquette system!" The rest agreed.

After some discussion, several people decided to write poems to echo it, and invited their classmates to make a statement to the Guozi priest wine to convey the voice of the students.

When the ministers heard this poem, they were either ashamed, angry, or disimpressed, but this matter had been exposed, and they could no longer pretend to be deaf and dumb, and wrote to impeach Han Qi for violating the funeral rules.

King Beijing and the others were about to stop the Zhaoxin Bureau from exchanging for national debts, when they suddenly heard their subordinates report the matter, they were immediately furious, and immediately sent someone to investigate who was behind the trouble, and at the same time discussed how to deal with the matter.

Taking advantage of the temporary shift in the focus of the battle between the two sides, Lu Jing immediately joined Huang Yongzhong and asked Emperor Yuanyong to announce the results of the imperial merchant selection.

Emperor Yuanyong agreed after a little thought, and the matter of the imperial business could be finished as soon as possible.

On September 25, the Ministry of Internal Affairs announced the results of the third round of the Imperial Merchants Selection and posted the final list of Imperial Merchants, so that the first Imperial Merchants Selection came to a successful conclusion.

The result is set, the winners also congratulate each other and celebrate, the losers are not discouraged, due to the rise of joint-stock companies, so that the interests of many people are bound to one place, although there is one less name, but can also participate in the specific supply chain, but the current situation is tense, everyone does not dare to celebrate too much.

In the afternoon, the Ministry of Internal Affairs summoned all the new imperial merchants to the Xicheng Huangzhuang and held the first meeting of the imperial merchants, first, to assign them their specific business areas for which they were responsible, and second, to train them so that they could become the eyes and ears of the imperial court.

On the same day, the Zhaoxin Bureau also posted a notice announcing the list of businessmen named in the Zhaoxin Bureau, and announced 45 joint venture banks, three in each province, which would act as agents for the issuance of treasury bonds in each province.

The businessmen of the Zhaoxin Bureau are also happy, although they have not been able to become the imperial businessmen, but with the Zhaoxin Bureau, they can be regarded as having a backer.

It's just that both the imperial merchants and the merchants under the name of the Zhaoxin Bureau are extremely envious of the money banks that can issue treasury bonds.

Although the Zhaoxin Bureau has received a lot of criticism in the past few days, from the recent events in the court, they can also see that the emperor attaches great importance to the national debt, so they all have a feeling that those money banks are the biggest winners.

Zhang Chengxin also got his wish and became one of the bankers designated by the Zhaoxin Bureau to operate treasury bonds.
