The development of the money bank is getting faster and faster, and the status of paper money has slowly become more important, it is no exaggeration to say that if the coins on the market suddenly disappear, I am afraid that the economy of the entire Great Song Dynasty will be in a mess, and the imperial court may not even be able to collect taxes, and now even the most stubborn ministers dare not despise the role of paper money.

However, the more important the role of the money bank, Li Zhang felt that the money bank was hot, he discussed the money bank with Huozi and the ugly lady more than once, and they all thought that the money bank would have problems in their hands again, although there were many ticket numbers and money shops in the history of later generations, but their role was too primitive, and the power was relatively scattered, and the influence was far from being comparable with the banks of later generations, but even so, the Jin merchants who mastered the ticket number business in later generations also became the richest businessmen in the world.

In contrast, Li Zhang's money bank from the beginning of its establishment, is no longer a primitive ticket number, but the introduction of the business of the later bank, especially now the business of the money bank is getting bigger and bigger, has developed to major cities across the country, and even embarked on the road of monopoly, although there are some other money banks in the country, but far from being comparable with Li Zhang's money bank.

In addition, Li Zhang's positioning of the money bank is to develop it into the central bank of the Great Song Dynasty, so as to completely control the economic lifeline of the country, and in the feudal society of the Great Song Dynasty, it is obviously not a wise thing for a private person to control the economic lifeline of the country.

"Cousin, the money bank was established by you, but now it is going to be taken over by the imperial court, this is ...... Isn't that a little too good? Zhao Zhen was still a little embarrassed to say to Li Zhang at this time, his face was still too thin, especially Qian Xing was still Li Zhang's hard work, and he was even more embarrassed to ask for it in vain.

"You don't want it, I don't want to keep holding this hot potato, and the money is not under the control of the imperial court, there are many things that cannot be done, only when the imperial court masters the money bank, can it play its greatest role, and the money bank is not handed over all at once, first the beans slowly intervene in the affairs of the money bank, and then the court will send officials, I estimate that the court will not want to completely control the money bank in seven or eight years." Li Zhang knew what Zhao Zhen was thinking, but he still spoke.

Hearing Li Zhang say this, Zhao Zhen hesitated for a moment and finally nodded, but in the end, he spoke again: "Cousin, if you really want to hand over the money to the imperial court, don't shirk the reward this time, after all, you have made great contributions to the country, and the title should have been mentioned a long time ago!" ”

Originally, after recognizing with the Empress Dowager Li, Zhao Zhen was going to add the official positions of Li Zhang and Li Yonghe father and son, but Li Zhang resigned, mainly because he felt that he was too young and his position was too high to make people red, in fact, now he has caused a lot of people to be red, so Li Zhang refused Zhao Zhen's reward, but Li Yonghe, as the uncle of the country, became the deputy commander of the guards and the pro-army infantry army, and he was also crowned as the envoy of the Zhangxin Army.

"Okay, you can mention the title to me, but don't change the official position, I'm pretty good in martial arts." Li Zhang also nodded after hearing this, he handed over the money, and he should be rewarded by the court, and others can't say anything.

Seeing Li Zhang's agreement, Zhao Zhen was also very happy, and the two discussed some details of the bank handover, it is worth mentioning that Zhao Zhen really wanted Huozi to stay in the money bank, and then he could directly seal his official position, as for the ugly lady after all, it is really inconvenient to be an official, but Li Zhang also has to ask Huozi's own opinion, after all, he has already started a family, and he can't make decisions for him.

When he was talking, Li Zhang and Zhao Zhen also came to the palace where the Empress Dowager Li lived, and when the two entered the palace, they saw that the Empress Dowager Li was holding Zhao Fang's little hand and teaching the little guy to walk, although he could not walk by himself, but he could grab the hand of the Empress Dowager Li and walk a few steps, and the little guy also liked this novel game very much, and he "giggled" and laughed non-stop while walking.

"See Auntie, Auntie!" Zhao Zhen and Li Zhang stepped forward together to salute the Empress Dowager Li, and at this time, when the little guy saw Zhao Zhen, he jumped even more happily, and walked towards Zhao Zhen with his little short legs, as if he wanted Zhao Zhen to hold him.

Zhao Zhen's heart knot had already been untied, and when he saw his son's cute appearance, he immediately stepped forward to hold his son in his arms with a doting face, and Empress Dowager Li also asked very happily at this time: "Why did you two come together, Zhang'er, you went to Luoyang some time ago, and this journey must have been very hard, right?" ”

"Aunt Lao is worried, speaking of which, I also brought some gifts to my aunt and Fang'er when I went to Luoyang this time, all of which are some Luoyang specialties, and I also asked my aunt to smile!" Li Zhang also smiled at this time and stepped forward, it is difficult to go far away, he naturally prepared a lot of gifts for his family, such as preparing a precious peony from Luoyang for the Empress Dowager Li, after all, the Empress Dowager Li likes flowers and plants the most.

"It's still Zhang'er, you have a heart!" Empress Dowager Li laughed again when she heard Li Zhang's words, in fact, what gift Li Zhang gave was secondary, the key was that he could think of his aunt in his heart.

Zhao Zhen accompanied his son, and Li Zhang accompanied the Empress Dowager Li to chat a few words of homely gossip, and then explained his intentions: "Auntie, she has also reached the age of marriage, the bean I mentioned to you last time, he has now been admitted to the Jinshi, so do you see if it is ......?"

Li Zhang said that in the end, he also kept observing the face of the Empress Dowager Li, for fear that the other party would refuse, after all, she was the one who really did the marriage of the raccoon, and even Zhao Zhen next to him came over and waited for the decision of the Empress Dowager Li.

I saw that the Empress Dowager Li showed a hesitant expression at this time, and only after a while did she speak: "Actually, I have been worrying about the marriage of the raccoon dog, some time ago the Cao family and the Li family had suitable candidates, but I have not let go, although the bean you said was admitted to the Jinshi, but the background is still not comparable with the big families of Cao and Li." ”

Empress Dowager Li's attitude is obviously a little hesitant, the Cao and Li in her mouth also refer to the Cao family and the Li family in Jiangmen, they are all noble families, and they have been married to the royal family for generations, so Empress Dowager Li also prefers to recruit horses from these noble families.

"Auntie, husband and wife can't just look at their family background, feelings are the most important, otherwise they won't be happy if they are noisy every day, and Douzi and Tanuki are childhood sweethearts, so I think they are the most suitable!" Li Zhang hurriedly persuaded again at this time, and he saw that although Empress Dowager Li was a little hesitant, her attitude was not resolute, so there was still room to persuade her to change her mind.

Sure enough, hearing Li Zhang's words, Empress Dowager Li also showed a hesitant expression again, and at this time, Zhao Zhen also suddenly opened her mouth to persuade: "Queen Mother, I have also seen that bean, it is indeed a rare talent, even if he is a colt, I am ready to reuse him, and he has worked hard for the raccoon dog for many years, which is enough to prove his feelings for the raccoon, so I also hope that the queen mother can fulfill them!" ”

Zhao Zhen deserves to be his own son, and his words also made Empress Dowager Li show an excited expression, and finally saw her finally nod and say: "Okay, since even Your Majesty thinks so, then I have no objection!" ”

"Aunt Xie!" Li Zhang saw that the Empress Dowager Li finally agreed, and immediately stepped forward with great joy and saluted, although the marriage of the raccoon dog made him feel heartache, but girls always have to marry, and it is much better for her to marry Douzi than to marry other people who don't know the details.

Zhao Zhen was also very happy, after all, he finally had a sister who was going to get married, and at the moment he also took over the marriage of the raccoon, saying that he was going to handle this matter personally and fulfill the responsibility of being the eldest brother, but the Empress Dowager Li was still worried that he was too busy, so she asked Li Zhang to help with it, and of course Li Zhang was very willing to do it.

But at this time, Empress Dowager Li suddenly thought of another thing, only to see her first look at Li Zhang, and then said to Zhao Zhen: "Zhen'er, you also agreed to the things that Lu Xiang mentioned last time, and Concubine Yang and I also think that the other party is good, so it's better to find a time to do things!" ”

"This ......" Zhao Zhen also showed a hesitant expression when he heard his mother's words, and finally sighed after a while, "That's it, everything is up to the queen mother!" ”
