Hu Guang turned his head and instructed Wang Chengen beside him to say a word, and after Wang Chengen turned to leave, he said to Xu Guangqi: "Xiyi's knowledge can indeed make up for the lack of the Ming Dynasty. I didn't have much time, so I only wrote a part of the content on arithmetic. Qing took it to see, if there was something I didn't understand, I wrote a chapter to me after summarizing, and I gave Qing an answer. I hope that Qing and his students can make a difference in this area! ”
Arabic numerals should be promoted, and the way of writing should be changed, otherwise the implementation of mathematics, physics and chemistry will be empty words. And these are best put forward by courtiers like Xu Guangqi, and then supported by themselves.
Regarding this matter, Xu Guangqi naturally agreed, left Beijing with mixed feelings, and no longer cared about the bad things of Tang Ruowang and others.
In the afternoon, in the city of Xuanfu, at the gate of Fanfu, there was a long line of carriages parked. Counting down, there are seven in total.
In the Fuzhong Council Hall, Fan Yongdou sat on the main seat, looked at the other seven people, his face was serious, he said the situation he had mastered, and finally slapped the table and said categorically: "Everyone, this is the situation. Fan thought that just in case, the grain that was already in Zhangjiakou should be sent to Liaodong immediately. Other grains should also be transported to Zhangjiakou in a hurry. Do you still have any questions about this? ”
The others looked at each other and were about to say something, when suddenly the door in the council hall was pushed open, and the biting cold wind suddenly swept in, freezing so that these people inside couldn't help but shiver.
As the master, Fan Yongdou's face suddenly darkened, what's wrong with the housekeeper? There are guests here, and they are so panicked!
He was about to scold, but he saw the butler bow to the others, and then quickly approached Fan Yongdou, and whispered: "Someone from Shanhaiguan has killed a horse, saying that last night Sun Chengzong had ordered the Guanning army to go out of the customs to inspect the grassland and arrest any caravans......"
"What?" When Fan Yongdou heard this, he was immediately surprised, how could this be possible? He immediately asked, "What else?" ”
"There is also unconfirmed news that the son of the Great Khan, Bellehaug, has led a thousand cavalry troops."
Fan Yongdou naturally knew that the contact with Shanhaiguan was only a message, so after listening to it, he waved his hand and asked the housekeeper to step back.
The others couldn't help but be a little nervous when they saw Fan Yongdou's face change greatly after whispering and then bowing their heads in contemplation, and they all asked, "Brother Fan, what's wrong?" ”
"Brother Fan, if there is something to say, everyone will discuss and solve it together!"
“……”
When Fan Yongdou heard this, he looked up at them, explained the situation roughly, and then said: "At this time, it is too risky to send out food, so I won't send it for the time being, what do you think?" ”
"It's best to transport all the grain first, and then go back and transport it away at once." Wang Dengku responded with a smile.
But Jin Liangyu felt wrong, and he said to Fan Yongdou: "Except for the Ming army on the Yulin side that might go out of the customs to the grassland, there has never been such a thing in other places. What a strange thing! ”
Fan Yongdou nodded when he heard this, frowned and said: "Judging from this news, it seems that Dajin leaked the news, otherwise it would be impossible to know that Haugbel is coming, and the number of people is specific." ”
"That's fine, let Lord Belle take the food away by himself, and it can save us a lot of effort!" Huang Yunfa said nonchalantly.
Fan Yongdou didn't agree immediately, listening to the other people talking. After a long while, he said with a serious face: "The previous risks can't be guarded against, let's give up another 10% of the profits and hang them in the name of Lord Zhongcheng." In this way, even if the new commander-in-chief arrives, if he doesn't cooperate, he won't dare to be rude to Lord Zhongcheng! Is that good? ”
When the business is to the point where they are, the risk has to be something they have to consider. Although it is necessary to give up 10% of the profits, it can be insured, and it can further narrow the relationship with the governor of Xuanfu. After calculating in their hearts, these big Jin merchants all agreed.
Hu Guang, who was far away in Beijing, naturally did not expect to leave the grain in the customs by mistake. At this time, he finally heard the news he had always wanted to hear: the White Pole Army would be able to arrive in Beijing on the morning of the third day of the Lunar New Year.
After Hu Guang thought for a while, he secretly summoned Han Shengcai and Hu Zhengyan. Looking at the two of them, he smiled and said to Hu Zhengyan: "The Daming banknotes have been used up for more than 400,000 taels, and they have not been exchanged for silver taels, which is a good start." However, the previous Ming banknotes, there are still defects, this version should not be used! ”
When Hu Zhengyan heard this, he was slightly stunned. It took him a lot of effort to check those banknotes before they were printed. He was a little puzzled, so he bowed down and asked, "I don't know what the defect is, please show it to Your Majesty!" ”
When Han Sheng heard this, he realized that the person next to him turned out to be the person who printed such a beautiful banknote, and he couldn't help but admire it very much.
Hu Guang asked Wang Chengen, the fourth person in the palace, to transfer the samples on the imperial case to Hu Zhengyan, and said to him: "The name of the legal yamen of the Ming banknote is still printed less!" ”
"Daming Central Bank!" After Hu Zhengyan got the sample, he couldn't help but read it out loud.
Hu Guang nodded with a smile and said, "Yes, Daming Central Bank!" I will soon make a decree to be established, and Qing will be the first president of the central bank of Daming and the director of the banknote printing department. Five-grade grade, directly under the cabinet. ”
Speaking of this, he turned his head to look at Han Shengcai again and said, "Han Qing is the deputy governor of the Central Bank of Daming and the director of the Financial Department. It mainly analyzes and studies the financial situation of Daming, controls the circulation of banknotes, and controls financial risks. ”
Seeing their confused looks, Hu Guang explained their respective functions to them in detail. Originally, according to the two of them's strengths, Han Shengcai was the right person to be the president, because he had a better understanding of finance, but he was unfortunate that he was white.
However, Hu Zhengyan is from a good background, and when he mentions the position of the number one, he can be more recognized by the official. However, he is proficient in the art of printing, and more energy will be spent on the innovation of printing technology and anti-counterfeiting.
Such an arrangement is already overjoyed for Han Shengcai. However, Hu Guang's words were not finished, "Cao Huachun, the commander of Dongchang, rushed to Suzhou early yesterday morning, and your brother will be safe by then." When I look back, if it is as you say, I plan to appoint him as the first president of the Daming Construction Bank......"
Hu Guang knew that they couldn't understand it, so he talked about the structure operation and other contents, which opened the eyes of Hu Zhengyan and Han Shengcai, and at the same time, made Han Shengcai very happy.
After Hu Zhengyan retreated first, Hu Guang suddenly said to Han Shengcai: "It's about to start, I need Han Qing to set off with the army and point out all the locations where they are hiding their supplies, can you do it?" ”
