Liang Shuo said unhappily: "They are all court officials, if you don't want to do it, you will withdraw." ”

Yuan Wuji asked Liang Shuo: "How many officials are there who are stranded in Chang'an and there is no real shortage?" ”

"More than four hundred." Liang Shuo naturally knew this headache number, Yuan Wuji nodded and proposed: "It's enough, then let the New Rural Bank hurry up and recruit people, the household department has a lot of things to do now, and you can hand over the number and requirements of the personnel who need positions in the two branches to the Ministry of Officials to select people." Build the frame first, and if you find something that doesn't fit, replace it slowly. ”

Listen dumbfounded, in this way, will these people still listen to the household department and the bank? The quick-witted person immediately realized that where is the selection of people by the bank, this is the preparation of these departments of the Ministry of Officials to meddle in the Xinnong Bank, since it is an official office, all the officials of the bank are officials of the imperial court, and they use not turtle charms but fish charms, so the imperial court is qualified to intervene in arranging all things. If the assigned task cannot be done, then replace the person; If Duhu Huaien's proposition is implemented, even if more than half of the personnel of the New Rural Bank are assigned to Taiyuan, it is unknown whether they can return to Chang'an in the future.

Dai Xuan objected: "No. ”

Liang Shuo asked: "Is it not in accordance with the rules, or is it not in accordance with the process, there are a large number of vacancies now, why can't we arrange officials who have no real vacancies?" ”

Dai Xuan gritted his teeth and said: "The bank is a highly professional department. ”

Liang Shuo didn't let him ask at a moment's notice: "Eldest Sun Wuji is a person from the bank?" Now the New Rural Bank has appointed 26 officials, and only three have worked at Daxing Bank. Master Dai, the two-year loan will be released in four days, not to mention professionalism, as long as the Taiyuan branch is running normally, Tianshui and Shangxian Bank I will make a military order, one a month, if this group of officials does worse than Taiyuan, I am willing to take the blame and resign. ”

As soon as Liang Shuo said this, he forced Dai Xuan to a desperate situation, as long as these two banks succeeded, the New Rural Bank would accept more than a hundred officials later, for these people, Liang Shuo's position was very important. But for the political hall, if you can't come up with Mo Nan's plan, you can't communicate to the people and the tribes that belong to it, so the voices supporting Liang Shuo are one after another; However, the Imperial Historical Observatory objected to this, believing that the officials exceeded their authority.

Dai Xuan was indignant in his heart, he understood that because he was bent on order and balance, he forgot about human nature and the situation in Monan, which caused such a predicament, and now both sides actually don't support him and don't care about himself. Judging from the current posture, Tobe was put on the fire because of the wrong path he chose. Yang Chong said suddenly: "Why don't you transfer Hedong and Qinghai and let Daxing Bank go to Taiyuan?" ”

Wei Yunqi was about to object, but suddenly found that what Yang Chong said was the plan to get out of the predicament, and it didn't matter if Qinghai set up a bank or not, but he could ask for one million activity funds from the household department to ensure that the seven branches behind him would not be affected, and buy time for Changsun Wuji and others to recruit people. Wei Jin, who attended the meeting, was the first to react, and immediately raised his hand to express his position, King Yue's suggestion was the best; Wei Yunqi also agreed, and Fang Xuanling asked Dai Xuan softly: "Lord Dai, do you make a choice, which plan to choose?" ”

Dai Xuan adjusted his mood and said, "I agree with King Yue's plan. ”

Li Chunfeng and Yu Wenwen were found, and after listening to the explanations of the bigwigs, Li Chunfeng said with a wry smile: "The personnel problem is not big, you can send the people from the Jiujiang branch who are training to Taiyuan first, and recruit a group of gentlemen who settle accounts in the school again." But where do I want to get the two million, and the one million in the Jiujiang branch has already hit the treasury. Master, in this way, I will solve everything other than money, and you will find a way to get two million for the bank within ten days. ”

Yang Chong said with a smile: "Transfer all the money from the Jiujiang branch to the treasury as the deposit of the Taiyuan branch, and I will prepare another two million for you in a month, that is, you have to find a good president to go to Jiujiang." Du Chuke went to Taiyuan, and he couldn't come back for at least three years, Yu Wenwen, you have all the formalities in three days; In addition, because of the unexpected situation, you have to urge Daxing Bank to calculate the difference between Qinghai and Hedong within two months, and erase it from the amount that the household needs to pay. ”

Fang Xuanling breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Since there is capital investment, for Monan, the Privy Council has a plan to abolish the Yunzhong Metropolitan Protectorate and establish the Beiting Metropolitan Protectorate, which is under the jurisdiction of the Beining Metropolitan Governor's Mansion under Ashina Suni, the Tieshan Metropolitan Mansion under the responsibility of Yu She, the Jinshan Metropolitan Governor's Mansion under the responsibility of Yugu, the Youzhou Governor's Mansion under the responsibility of Yin Netler, the Changzhou Metropolitan Governor's Mansion under the responsibility of Sijie Qijin, and the Yunzhong Metropolitan Mansion under the responsibility of Ashina Hubo. The Dingxiang Governor's Mansion managed by Yang Shanjing was changed to the Xiangbei Governor's Mansion and was under the control of Guanwai Dao. ”

This is a big deal, the area managed by the Beiting Metropolitan Protectorate is vast, which is equivalent to another Turk, and including Dali City and Woye Town, have become cities in the Central Plains; Only then did everyone understand why Liang Shuo and Fang Xuanling were pressing on the household department step by step, and they really needed money, Lu Yanqing asked: "Is there a candidate for the Beiting Metropolitan Protectorate?" ”

Fang Xuanling said: "Song Jingang is the protector of the Beiting Metropolitan Protector, and Cheng Yanjin is the Governor of Tuntian outside the Hehai to assist Song Jingang; Duhu usurped as the general manager of Guanwai Road, and Fang Yanzao was the transfer envoy of Guanwai Road and Beiting. ”

Yang Wang thought about it and asked, "What should I do with Jieli Khan?" ”

Yang Chong replied: "After being escorted to Chang'an, Jie Li will be appointed as the Marquis of Anle and the governor of Qizhou, so let him live in Chang'an and have a companion with Wang Shichong." Regarding the Turkic tribes in Mobei, he wrote a letter to appease them, explaining to them the difference between the policies of the Great Sui in Monan and Mobei, and asking them to move to Monan; Otherwise, if we are eaten by Xue Yantuo, we have no choice; In the past, Daxing Bank and Longquan Qian Zhuang bought the spoils of war according to the usual practice. ”

Wang Shichong's brothers and nephews were finally sentenced, and they were exiled to Qinghai and other places, only Wang Shichong and his son Wang Xuanshu stayed in Chang'an and lived under house arrest; Yang Chong's statement shows that Wang Shichong is likely to be pardoned and become a free man. The practice of buying booty was that the money from the soldiers going back to their hometowns went to the bank, and the bank helped them get the highest purchase price, and both sides benefited.

Li Jing saw that Yang Chong did not say anything about the withdrawal of the army, and immediately understood Yang Chong's thoughts and said: "The war has been going on for a long time, and the soldiers are tired, I will set the garrison number of the Beiting Metropolitan Protectorate as soon as possible, and then after the three towns outside the river are successfully built, come up with a reasonable dissolution figure and negotiate with the Privy Council." ”

The Great Sui is now a standing army of Fan soldiers, Tuntian, and Sixteen Guards, and all the rest are government soldiers, and Li Jing's idea is to let how many government soldiers go home to reduce the financial pressure on the front line. Most of the people in the conference hall had heard about the three towns outside the river for the first time, and they all asked Li Jing to explain it.
