Chapter 603: Expedition



Wu Zhi went to Jiangning Mansion to serve as a temporary worker, and he still had to return to Bianjing when the chaos was settled, so he only needed to bring the "secretary" Qin Hui and some guards to Jiangnan this time, and there was no need to drag his family with him. "Co*Fun*Words*Love*First*Fa ()』

The house is well organized, the women's college is thriving, they don't delay taking care of the children after teaching, and there is nothing at home that makes Wu Zhi feel uneasy.

The night before departure, Wu Zhi, who had just escaped from the nagging of the ladies, ushered in Brother Murong.

"Wu Zhi, I'm here tonight to talk to you about the bank."

Murong Yanda sat in the study and took the teacup handed over by Wu Zhi.

"I know it's not going to be easy......

Wu Zhi nodded in understanding. After the collapse of the Zhu family's Tiandi Bank, Wu Zhi began to tentatively link the Great Song Bank with the tax revenue of the household department, and further let the Great Song Bank replace the treasury function of the Great Song Dynasty, so that a large amount of money could flow to the people through the bank, so as to vigorously promote economic development.

Wu Zhi's ultimate goal was to have the power and credit to print the Da Song Bank's legal notes.

Nowadays, the Ministry of Household Affairs and the Great Song Bank cooperate closely, and the Great Song Bank is actually equivalent to the treasury of the Great Song Dynasty. However, Dasong Bank wanted to print banknotes, but there were many obstacles.

"A few days ago, I went to Dongfu to discuss matters, and I only mentioned the issue of banknotes a little, and I was opposed by all the deacons in Dongfu, Wu Zhi, you know, the imperial court suffered too much loss on banknotes before, and they are secretive about this!" Murong Yanda shook his head and said.

Wu Zhi nodded, at the beginning of the Tiansheng Year, Sichuan's paper money Jiaozi caused extremely serious damage to the people's livelihood and economy of the Great Song Dynasty due to the indiscriminate issuance, resulting in the emergence of virtuous ministers, virtuous monarchs, and generous policies.

Once bitten by a snake, he was afraid of the well rope for ten years. Therefore, all the officials now regard the printing of paper money as a flood beast that will bring disaster to the country and the people. If it weren't for the silver bills of the Great Song Bank, they would have been banned long ago.

"For now, the only way for banks to prepare a large amount of precious metals such as gold, silver, and copper as the silver base for printing banknotes." Wu Zhi groaned.

He originally planned to rely on the total economic volume of the Great Song Dynasty to print paper money, but this obviously did not work in the Great Song Dynasty officialdom, which generally did not understand mathematical principles or economic common sense. The only way to do this is by hoarding large quantities of precious metals and then printing banknotes according to the amount of precious metals.

In this way, banks will hoard as much precious metals as there are banknotes circulating in the market, and there will be absolutely no inflation.

"My Great Song Dynasty is very short of gold, silver and copper, except for Shandong, there is a shortage of money in various places." Murong Yanda said with a sad face: "Therefore, Wu Zhi, you not only have to help the army quell the chaos when you go to Jiangnan this time, but you must bring some special personnel in order to survey whether there are copper mines in Jiangnan, and it is even better to get silver and gold mines!" ”

Murong Yanda patted Wu Zhi's shoulder and said: "There are many mountains and rivers in the south of the Yangtze River, and the population is not as dense as in the north, maybe there will be a place to hide gold and silver, as long as the Great Song Bank finds a big mine, then I have a way to let the Great Song Bank issue banknotes!" ”

Wu Zhi smiled bitterly, where is the gold, silver and copper mine so easy to find, but what Brother Murong said is right, you must always give it a try, once you find it, it will be of great significance to the Great Song Bank and the entire society of the Great Song Dynasty.

"I will take some students from Qingzhou University to Jiangnan."

Qingzhou University has been teaching physics and geography for more than a year, and chemistry has been open for more than half a year.

Zhao Ji took hundreds of officials to see him off in person, and Tong Guan took an army of 150,000 and set off for Jiangnan.

The army meandered more than ten miles on the official road, like a dragon with black iron scales wandering on the land of Shenzhou. Wu Zhi is a civil official, and he has a carriage in the army, but today the weather is fine, Wu Zhi also rode a horse and Tong Guan went hand in hand, chatting casually while enjoying the autumn colors.

Wu Song, Lin Chong and others accompanied Wu Zhi to the left, Tong Guan to the right were the generals of the Western Army, and there was a veteran with a wrinkled face like a knife carved by the wind, this old general was the famous master of the Western Army! The elite of the Great Song Dynasty is the Western Army, and the elite of the Western Army is the Seed Army!

The family army is definitely the strongest army in the Northern Song Dynasty, in the generation of the grandfather of the master of the Dao, the family army with infantry and the Xixia iron cavalry field battle is completely true, repeatedly with the inferiority of the infantry to the cavalry to defeat the Western Xia iron cavalry, refreshing the image of the Song army's field scum in the history of foreign wars in the Song Dynasty.

The reason why the family army is strong is not only that it has been guarding the northwest frontier, but also because of the caste of this army!

The grandfather of the master of the master, Chong Shiheng, was an unborn famous general who was personally promoted by Fan Zhongyan. There is the Song generation, and the seed army created by Luoyang race Shiheng is more famous than the Yang family general, and the role is greater than that of the Yang family general, but the Yang family general stepped onto the stage and was rendered brilliantly, while the seed family army entered the thread-bound book and was annihilated by the text.

From the Northern Song Dynasty to Zhao Ji's generation, there were many heroes of the family army: Shiheng, Shiheng, Shiheng, Shiyi, Pu, Shidao, and Shishi were all generals. The children of the family have served in the army for five generations, and dozens of people have died on the battlefield. Every time the Song Dynasty fought a foreign war, there was a kind of good son and grandson who went to the front line to throw their heads and spill their blood, and there was no one who coerced people, let alone an incompetent person.

All are good generals!

Seed Master Dao is the son of Seed Brother, who is the one who went to the capital of Western Xia with Wang Xian, the master of the first eunuch Tong Guan of the Northern Song Dynasty, and burned down the imperial palace built on the snow mountain in Western Xia!

People say that Tong Guan led the army to level the Tubo River and Huang area to expand the territory of the Great Song Dynasty, but if there is no seed army in this way, I am afraid that Tong Guan will not be able to fight an inch of land.

It's no wonder that Tong Guan now has a lot of respect for the seed master next to him, and even Wu Zhi Wu Song and others will unconsciously have reverent eyes when they look at the old generals, this is the real famous family, the door is the tiger, the five generations are all high-ranking officials and famous generals, and the children have no laziness and arrogance from generation to generation, and some are just iron-blooded.

"Tong Shuai, Master Wu, there will be something to ask you for in the end!"

In the middle of the line, a white-robed young general suddenly stepped forward and bowed to Tong Guan and Wu Zhi.

"It turned out to be General Flower. What's the matter with you? Tong Guan saw that it was Hua Rong, and his eyes couldn't help but show appreciation, and asked.

Wu Zhi also looked at Hua Rong in puzzlement.

Hua Rong was incorporated into the army as the Ministry of the Forbidden Army.

"The last general just found out that a female relative was mixed in at the headquarters, and he came to ask Tong Shuai for a moment of leave, so that he could send the woman back to Bianjing."

After Hua Rong finished speaking, everyone looked at each other.

"Ladies and daughters? Who is it? Wu Zhi asked with a smile.

"It's His Royal Highness the Lord of Senjo County........."

"His Royal Highness? Why did she infiltrate your team? Tong Guan was shocked.

"Don't you want to drive me away! I'm not leaving! ”

At this time, the little county lord also arrived on horseback, and she was wearing the armor of a school captain, which was very stylish.

"Please give permission to Tong Shuai." Hua Rong ignored the little county lord and looked firm.

The little county lord bit his little red lip and looked at Wu Zhi.

Tong Guan had already seen something, and he smiled at the little county lord: "The army is on the march, women are not suitable to follow the army, I think the county lord should go back!" I'll let Hua Rong send you ........."

"Huh!"

Wu Zhi waved his hand and said to Tong Guan: "Tong Shuai, the little county lord did not go out with the army, but traveled to Jiangnan with me, when I left Beijing before, Prince Cheng also told me to take good care of the little county lord, who wants to think how she was caught by General Hua........."

As he spoke, Wu Zhi winked at the little county lord, and then said to Hua Rong: "Hua Rong, you must not be rude to the little county lord, this road is tiring, you are responsible for protecting the safety of the little county lord, remember, you must protect yourself!" ”

"But ......"

"But what?" Wu Zhi glared at Hua Rong, and Hua Rong immediately lowered his head helplessly.

The little county lord triumphantly took away Hua Rong, and at the end she also winked at Wu Zhi mischievously, she was thanking Wu Zhi for her help.

Wu Zhi smiled and said nothing, the little county lord had helped her before, so he naturally wanted to help the little county lord flirt with Hua Rong.

"Dude, this is ........."

Tong Guan looked at Wu Zhi as if he didn't understand, Wu Zhi approached Tong Guan to explain slightly, and then the two of them laughed, laughing very evilly.

"Since Master Wu is so reasonable, then I don't have to hide anymore!"

A voice as crisp as a silver bell sounded, and everyone turned their heads unconsciously.

"Your Highness the Princess!"

"Ling'er ......"

Looking at Ling'er, who had just gotten out of the carriage behind him, Tong Guan and the others were stunned, but Wu Zhi looked embarrassed.

"When did this little girl get into her carriage?"

"I've been in the carriage all along! You haven't been in again........."

As if seeing Wu Zhi's doubts, Ling'er wrapped her pigtails around her and said easily: "Na, I'm not with the army!" I went to Jiangning with my sister Min'er, so you are not allowed to drive me away! ”

"As long as Master Wu is willing, I have no opinion anyway........."

Tong Guan hurriedly put aside the relationship, and then laughed leisurely at Wu Zhi, just now they were making fun of Hua Rong together, but they didn't expect it to be Wu Zhi's turn so soon.

However, for Wu Zhi and the Seventh Princess to have this kind of relationship, Tong Guan couldn't help but sweat for Wu Zhi in his heart.

A married man still dares to flirt with the emperor's daughter, Wu Zhi is playing with fire! Chapter error, click here to report (no registration), the maintenance staff will correct the chapter content within two minutes after reporting, please wait patiently, and refresh the page.
