After consulting with many aides, Gao Yihuan quickly formulated many resolutions.

First of all, it has formed a military government, established its own bureaucratic system, and has a system for selecting and promoting talents.

In this way, the area under Gao Yihuan's rule is equivalent to an independent regime, which can be regarded as a country within a state.

This is conducive to enhancing Gao Yihuan's strength and better cohesion of the entire interest group, but it also makes Gao Yihuan's heart known to everyone, making a group of people who are interested in the Ming Dynasty very disappointed in him, and also making many people scold him more than once, and he is labeled as a chaotic minister and thief.

However, this is not necessarily a bad thing, after these people saw his actions, many people hung up their seals and left, making him lose a lot of talents, but also for the future to resolve a lot of hidden dangers.

Gao Yihuan originally thought that his actions would cause relatively large turmoil, but in fact, it didn't seem to have much impact.

This surprised Gao Yihuan a little, but then Gao Zurong solved his doubts.

The Sima family was Cao Wei's minister and was deeply favored by Cao Wei, and they usurped the throne, so they naturally had to bear infamy.

Our old Gao family did not receive any favors from the Ming Dynasty, and even rebelled against the family, saying that I was sorry for the old Zhu family, which is a bit far-fetched.

Of course, the scolding is still certain, but it will not be so serious.

In addition, in the past few years, people's hearts have been turbulent, a large number of people have surrendered to Shun, and they have surrendered to the Shun army, and it is naturally not good to scold him, the eldest brother does not laugh at the second brother, Gao Yihuan is still under the banner of the Ming Dynasty, and if you want to scold, you have to scold those who surrender to the Qing Dynasty, compared to Gao Yihuan is not so hateful.

There are not many people who scold Gao Yihuan in Henan and Huguang, and even after Nanjing knew about Gao Yihuan's actions, they understood Gao Yihuan's wolf ambitions, and they didn't react, turned a blind eye and pretended not to see it.

After the Qing army drove Mobei Mongolia out of Shanxi, the Ma army pursued it and returned with a great victory.

Now that the Qing army has increased its troops to Shandong, Nanjing feels the pressure, and I don't know who the Qing army's target will be next time it goes south, and Nanjing has no means to deal with Gao Yihuan, so it can only swallow its anger.

After Gao Yihuan returned to Nanyang, he issued a series of decrees, established academies, opened branches and recruited scholars, organized and trained militia groups, recruited new soldiers, reorganized the Shun and Left armies, and also ran an official newspaper.

Gao Yihuan's measures mainly have two goals, one is to maintain his own rule, and the other is to eliminate the influence of the Ming Dynasty on him.

The expansion of the army is to maintain the rule, resist the Tartars, guard against the Ming Dynasty, so that external forces cannot subvert his rule by force, establish an official system, open a branch to recruit scholars, and run a newspaper, which is to stabilize the interior and eliminate the influence of the Ming Dynasty.

These policies should be formulated, implemented, and put into practice, and the cost will naturally be a lot.

It costs a lot of money to run academies, train people's regiments, recruit new soldiers, and reorganize and surrender the army, that is, to establish an official system and customize official robes for civil and military officials, and also to pay a lot of silver.

In addition, Gao Yihuan also set up a newspaper, as an important propaganda tool in his hands, which was printed by the government and then sent free of charge to yamen at all levels every month, as well as scholars who had a reputation for being a student.

Henan and Huguang are not as good as Jiangnan, there are very few people who can read and write, and the people do not like to discuss national affairs.

In addition, Gao Yihuan also needs to hire some literate people to bring Di Bao to each village and town, read these Di Bao to the people, and explain the content on it.

Gao Yihuan saw that the choir was good, and he was also planning to recruit a few opera troupes, set up an education and culture department in the ritual groove, specially manage these troupes, and recruit literati to arrange operas, so that the troupes could perform for free in various villages and towns.

It's just that these are things that cost a lot of money to do, and they require continuous capital investment, watching the money be spent like flowing water, Gao Yihuan was a little anxious.

Southern Henan and Huguang are both large agricultural provinces, with limited taxes, Gao Yihuan is confident and calm on the surface, but in fact, he is already like a needle mat.

This time he has touched the bottom line of the Ming Dynasty, and if he wants to send troops to find the Ming Dynasty to make money, Nanjing is afraid that he will have to fight with him.

Gao Yihuan wants to fight for the world, he has no advantage in legal theory, it is his shortcoming, and there are only two things he can rely on, the military heart and the people's heart.

If he wants to grasp the hearts and minds of the army and the people, he cannot be untrustworthy and untrustworthy, default on military salaries, and not extort money arbitrarily and plunder the people's wealth.

In this case, there are only a few ways to solve the financial dilemma.

But what kind of person is tall and handsome, as long as the mind does not slip, there are always more ways than difficulties.

Under normal circumstances, the value of grain is lower than that of planting mulberry seedlings, cotton and other cash crops, so many lands in the south of the Yangtze River have been replanted with mulberry seedlings and cotton.

Gao Yihuan prepared to set up a market in Yuezhou to buy and sell grain in large quantities, and maybe he could even get a grain future.

Another way is to establish a complete system of money banks, and use more covert means to loot people's money.

In Nanyang City, the original Tang Palace, has become a heavily guarded coin workshop.

What is the most ruthless and invisible means to loot people's wealth? Naturally, it's printing money!

As early as last year, Gao Yihuan began to let people mint money, and handed over the matter of minting money to the old man Gao Zurong to manage.

Previously, Gao Zurong managed Cao, but later Gao Yihuan's subordinates gradually came to a large number of talents, Li Yan, Chen Mingxia and others took refuge successively, and Gao Zurong was no longer managing Cao's affairs, but helping Gao Yihuan take care of his family finances.

Coming to the money casting workshop, Gao Yihuan got straight to the point and said: "Dad, I want to take advantage of the fact that there are still millions of taels of silver in the treasury, and use these silver as reserves to print paper money directly?" ”

Now the people are circulating real money and silver, and these are as much as they are, and there is no moisture.

It's different with paper money, there are four million taels of silver, and there is no problem with printing seven or eight million taels of paper money, and it's not too easy to get money.

Gao Zurong listened to Gao Yihuan's words, and put his cane on the ground, wanting to scold the loser, but thinking about Gao Yihuan's identity, he still saved some face for him, "You want to learn from the old Zhu family to seal treasure money and do this kind of thing of cutting off children and grandchildren?"

It is too easy to print paper money to make money, so once paper money is printed, how to control the greed of the ruler and not print more is a problem.

Chinese paper money, which existed in the Song Dynasty, was much earlier than in the West, but in the end it did not evolve into a currency in the modern sense.

A very important reason is that the greed of the ruler is uncontrollable, there is no money to build a palace, print some paper money, no money to fight a war, print some paper money, and finally make the people unbearable, and the reputation of paper money collapses.

Gao Yihuan hurriedly explained: "My paper money is different from treasure money, I have reserves, and paper money can be exchanged for silver at any time." I'm going to do an infinite remedy! ”

"Speak human words!" Gao Zurong didn't understand very well, and he was a little impatient with his cane, a little impulsive to hit someone.
