On this day, Xu Qilin did not go to work in Dayingku. In the evening, he would go to a banquet, and during the day he would go around the city to give gifts and visit.

Although I feel that I am going to work in Ganzhou, my family's industry and shops may not dare to be ridiculed, but it is not excluded in case.

Moreover, Xu Qilin didn't want Sister A to come forward, and he didn't want to complain to His Majesty Li Er. He also has connections, like Princess Changle and Changsun Chong, like Wei Chi Gong and Ma Zhou, they will all reach out to help.

What's more, there are also two little princesses in the palace, let Xiao Zhao find it, it must be good. The influence of these two girls on His Majesty Li Er is no less than that of any important minister in the court.

"Qi Lin is relieved to go to work, if there is something at home, he will come to the house to inform him, and the palace and the horse will try their best to help." Li Lizhi withdrew her wrist and made a promise with a smile.

Xu Qilin nodded with a smile and said, "Then I will thank Her Royal Highness the princess and the concubine in advance." As he spoke, he took a pen and paper and wrote the following.

"It is impossible for His Highness to cure his qi disease radically, but it is not difficult to prolong life with more conditioning." Xu Qilin handed the recipe over and said, "It's a pity that the whereabouts of the family teacher are erratic, and a certain one has only learned the fur." ”

"It's this fur, and this palace has also benefited a lot." Li Lizhi smiled and said: "So far, after drinking health tea, this palace feels that the condition has been greatly alleviated, and in the autumn and winter season, I have only committed it twice. ”

"Thanks to the smoke of medicine." The eldest grandson Chong chimed in and said: "If it weren't for Qi Lin's repeated advice not to use more, Her Royal Highness the princess would be afraid that she would smoke every day!" ”

Li Lizhi glanced at her husband in annoyance and said, "After inhaling, I can breathe smoothly, and I can sleep well this night." It's a three-point poison, and I'm afraid that this medicine is not so powerful. Qi Lin has never used it, and he has been told again and again, but he is also cautious. ”

Xu Qilin thought for a while and said, "Wait until I ask Master again, there are better medicines." It's just that I don't know when I'll get it. ”

"With this heart, this palace is grateful." Li Lizhi nodded and said, "Ganzhou is remote and bitterly cold, Qi Lin should pay more attention to his body." ”

After Xu Qilin thanked him, he got up to say goodbye, and the eldest grandson rushed to see him off until the gate of the mansion.

"I know that Qi Lin is raising money everywhere, and there are three thousand pieces here, please don't ask Qi Lin not to be too little, he must accept it." The eldest grandson waved his hand, and a subordinate brought over with a bag of silver cakes.

Xu Qilin scratched his head and said in his heart: I am raising money, not borrowing money, let alone giving alms. It seems that Changsun Chong and Li Lizhen still don't understand this investment, but they are looking at the relationship and helping themselves.

"This-" Xu Qilin said with a smile: "Brother Eldest Sun's wishes, I will not refuse." But this investment may not be what you think. ”

"It's different." Changsun Chong waved his hand very indifferently and said, "You can spend as much as you want, but if you talk too much, you will see the outside." ”

Xu Qilin nodded with a smile and said, "Since that's the case, then don't talk too much to Brother Eldest Sun, and let Brother Eldest Sun know in the future." ”

With that, Xu Qilin said goodbye, got on the horse and galloped away with the servants.

At the end of the day, Xu Qilin found that his visit was really fruitful. Even Ma Zhou sponsored a thousand guan, which made Xu Qilin very helpless.

Although I really want to say that I'm not here to ask for money, but people say it very well, and you're embarrassed if you don't accept it.

Fortunately, this does not affect Xu Qilin's fundraising plan, and when the money is in Xu Qilin's hands, there will naturally be benefits. When the time comes, return it back, and these guys who have white thoughts will be able to understand, right?

At the banquet in the evening, it is estimated that a lot of money can be collected again. Xu Qilin carefully recorded the names and amounts of investors, and had some expectations for the dinner.

Even if some powerful and high-ranking officials have the intention of investing, if they rely on their identity, they don't want to deal directly with Xu Qilin, a junior.

And it is a good way to get in touch with Xu Qilin's own children. can not only make money, but also marry Xu Qilin, the best of both worlds.

I have to say that Xu Qilin is already the most outstanding one among the younger generation.

Maybe the official rank is not the highest, maybe the title is not the most prominent, but this is obtained by personal efforts. It is not the same as those who inherit the lordship by the grace of their fathers.

At the same time, everyone also saw His Majesty Li Er's faith in Xu Qilin. First of all, the reform of Caoyun, and then the promotion of the history of assassination, a boy who is only thirteen years old, it is not an exaggeration to describe it as a smooth progress.

Coupled with his relationship with the royal family, Xu Qilin's future is immeasurable, and many people have made such judgments. Therefore, for the development of the family in the future, it is logical for the children to befriend Xu Qilin.

It can be regarded as an early investment, and it can also be regarded as a recognition of Xu Qilin's potential, which is the same as standing in line with the prince or Li Sipang. It is human nature to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages.

Sure enough, when Xu Qilin came to the restaurant, he saw more "friends" than before.

Needless to say, there are a few who are also prepared for a thousand cows, but there are a few who only have one side of knowledge, and they can barely speak and call their names.

Of course, the age is still similar, and the older one than Xu Qilin is only two or three years old.

Xu Qilin didn't care, there was not much difference in age, and there was some common language. Moreover, his thinking and speaking are also more direct, more sincere, and less hypocritical and cunning.

"Don't dare to say anything else, if you want to say that this is making money, you should do it." Xu Qilin drank a glass of wine, got up with the strength of the wine and said: "Brothers, if you have money, you have a strong contribution, it doesn't matter if you don't know how to invest, you always understand it, that's what it means." ”

"Understood, understood." Cheng Chubi chewed in his mouth and immediately agreed, but Xu Qilin felt that this guy should be the one who didn't understand the most here.

"It is said that Hexi is remote and bitter cold, but according to Qi Lin's temperament, there is no benefit, and if you don't enjoy happiness, no one will believe it." Liu Hongye joked with a smile: "Presumably because we don't have enough vision, we don't know what treasures are hidden there." ”

Yu Chihuan nodded again and again and said, "So-and-so feels the same way." Brother Lin is very particular, eating, wearing, and living must be comfortable. He wants to go to Hexi, can he still suffer? I don't believe it when I kill so-and-so. ”

Xu Qilin laughed and said: "Hexi is vast and sparsely populated, which is what the world calls the desolate and bitter cold. But you don't know that there is also a good place that is warm in winter and cool in summer, and the environment is more comfortable than Chang'an. ”

"I'll just say, if you don't enjoy the blessings, Brother Lin won't go!" Yu Chihuan looked like a god, and looked around arrogantly.

Although Zhang Shenxing had a holiday with Xu Qilin, it was also revealed. Xu Qilin has made good achievements in the past six months, and he has been promoted to the rank of knight, but he has to be served.

The heart of a teenager is not so much of a mansion. If you lose a fight, you have to obey; If you don't have that much ability, you have to take it. Therefore, the two have met a few times, and they seem to have forgotten the previous discord.

"Qi Lin, I wish you a smooth journey." Although it has been revealed during the festival, Zhang Shenxing is still one layer worse than Zhiwei Chihuan and others, and the toast is not so casual.

"Thank you, Brother Zhang, for your words." Xu Qilin raised his glass and drank it all, and said with a smile: "I like to wander around, watch the mountains and rivers, and enjoy the scenery of various places. If Brother Zhang is lonely, you can go to Ganzhou to play and ensure that you have fun. ”

"There is a job in Beijing, I'm afraid it's hard to leave." Zhang Shenxing said with a smile: "Qi Lin is at ease, and a certain good student is envious." ”

Xu Qilin said: "Qianniu has an age requirement, and in another year or two, Brother Zhang will have another position." You might as well consider going down to Hexi, the imperial court attaches great importance to it. ”

"Okay, okay." Zhang Shenxing nodded again and again, and said, "Qi Lin's vision has always been admired. ”

While he was talking, the kabuki and musicians came in and began to play music and dance.

Everyone became more and more excited, regardless of whether they were disturbing other people's performances, talking and laughing, drinking wine and drinking, whether it was warm or not.

These guys are really immature! While Xu Qilin sighed, he also felt helpless about his young man's body.

……………

When it comes to efficiency, the big surplus is still very high.

Just three or four days after the work was arranged, the transport team recruited from the capital had already set off and transported the first batch of supplies to Hexi.

These materials are mainly iron tools and farm tools, which are the most basic tools for development and construction, and are all made by the iron factory in Xin'an, which is of high quality.

The second group is the craftsmen dispatched by Dayingku, and the number of displaced people recruited is not too many, with a total of more than 200 people.

The departure is done in phases and batches so that the shops along the route will not be difficult to pick up, and the order is also determined according to the priority of the matter.

Xu Qilin is not like some officials, who first went to the place with his head bored, and then asked the court for instructions, asking for people and things. He wants to strive for the basic availability of people and property, and he lacks nothing, so he just rolls up his sleeves and works hard.

Otherwise, according to the level of transportation and communication in ancient times, a report comes and goes, and then the transportation is transferred, and almost half a year is wasted.

What is needed, how much is needed, Xu Qilin has calculated clearly. Even if there are some omissions, it will not affect the overall situation of development and construction.

And the more prepared he is, the more fanfare he makes, the more he shows his motivation to work hard. With such a heart and such a big move, how can His Majesty Li Er not know it, and how can he not like it?

After all the work was arranged, Xu Qilin rushed to the palace to bid farewell to His Majesty Li Er, and by the way, he also reported the progress of the work in the past few days.

After listening to Xu Qilin's report, His Majesty Li Er didn't have anything else, but he didn't understand this fundraising very well.

Although Dayingku can't take out so much money at once, it can't use so much money in the early stage of development and construction.

"Your Majesty, this money is not raised by Wei Chen, that is, it is rotten at home, or loaned, or squandered." Xu Qilin explained to His Majesty Li Er's question, "If the investment in Hexi gets a rich return, what will happen to these investors, most of them will increase their investment, right?" ”

His Majesty Li Er thought for a moment and nodded: "Although the imperial court has explicitly ordered officials not to do business, I also know that many ministers have already participated in commerce and trade through other means. Lending should be very common. ”

Xu Qilin said: "Wechen said that this loan has a stable income, and it is not low. Not only the ministers did this, but even the temples did it. However, the temple loan has won a lot of praise because of its low interest rate and long term. ”

His Majesty Li Er heard Xu Qilin mention Shamen again, and couldn't help but purse the corners of his mouth, wondering if this kid had come up with some bad tricks again.

Xu Qilin continued: "Wechen is thinking, why doesn't the imperial court lend? Collecting interest to make money is one thing, but isn't it the best of both worlds to provide convenience for businessmen and the common people, solve difficulties, and be praised? ”

His Majesty Li Er frowned and said, "Wang Mang's restructuring, it seems that there is such a measure?" ”

The so-called crossing is often found in later generations and TV dramas. Although this is all fiction, it cannot really exist or happen.

But there is a suspected traverser who not only became the emperor, but also openly implemented his own ideas. He is Wang Mang, who has been infamous for more than a thousand years, and it was not until modern times that anyone commented against him.

And Wang Mang is not a big traitor, but he is a very talented person. Judging from the policies he pursued, he also looked like a noble person who was selfless, working for the welfare of the toiling masses and reducing the gap between the rich and the poor.

Among his reforms, he first emphasized the equality of all people and banned the trade in slaves and subordinates; Then there is the state ownership of land, commercial monopoly, government regulation and so on.

Does it sound familiar, but it is completely the means and policies adopted by later generations. It's just that the innovation was too much, far exceeding the concept at the time, which made it difficult for many people at that time to accept, which was also the main reason for his failure.

It is in line with the famous saying: half a step ahead is a genius, and one step ahead is a madman. It is very appropriate to describe Wang Mang.

And the government's use of loans to help the people is also one of Wang Mang's new policies. But the specific regulations are that people can only borrow money from the government and get interest-free loans because they lack money for funerals at home.

Xu Qilin knew that Wang Mang had a bad reputation, so he didn't dare to suggest directly, but detoured back to the general fact of lending in society, and then turned to achieve his goal by advancing step by step.

Xu Qilin heard His Majesty Li Er mention Wang Mang, but he was not in a hurry, and said calmly: "Weichen doesn't know what Wang Mang's new policies are, but he just talks about things. ”

"As far as lending is concerned, the business can solve the financial dilemma, and the interest can be higher; Provide small loans to rural households, which can be used for production and solve urgent needs. For example, when buying seed farming tools, or even ploughing cattle, the interest rate can be very low or unnecessary, showing the court's love for the people. ”

"Wechen raised funds to try to pilot first, and lend money to immigrants without interest, so as to help them settle down as soon as possible and start production and construction." Xu Qilin said: "Then, depending on the specific situation, gradually expand the loan objects, increase production, or promote commerce, the benefits should outweigh the disadvantages." ”

His Majesty Li Er's brows furrowed, and he felt that it was not bad. After all, in the local area, some governments have also done this. For example, the seeds lent to poor farmers during spring ploughing and returned them after autumn are very similar to Xu Qilin's description.

"This policy does not need to be promulgated by the imperial court for the time being, it must be implemented in Ganzhou first, and it must be cautious." His Majesty Li Er finally made a decision and reminded Xu Qilin.
