Cabinet Minister Zhou Yingqiu also requested at this time to prohibit the circulation of gold and silver among the people, and that the gold and silver of the people could be exchanged for silver dollars, copper dollars or treasure banknotes at a specified time, and at the same time allow the Nanjing Mint to print Daming treasure banknotes.

This is a crazy plan to accumulate money, and the people's Tibetan silver is hundreds of millions, even if only a part of it is exchanged for the currency designated by the imperial court, Zhu Youxiao can also get a very huge amount of income.

Zhu Youxiao thought about it again and again and finally agreed to Zhou Yingqiu's suggestion, he is really short of money now, this kind of fair and legal money grabbing, he must do it.

"Song Aiqing, I am ready to agree to the suggestion given to Chen Yaoyan and Zhou Yingqiu, the minister, that the circulation of gold and silver be prohibited by the people, and that the trade of the people should only be allowed to use the currency designated by the imperial court. At the same time, we will issue an additional five kinds of treasure banknotes, such as one pen, five wen, ten wen, fifty wen, and one hundred wen, and cancel the half-penny copper dollar, so as to ensure that the circulating amount of treasure banknotes on the market reaches 10 million taels this year. Zhu Youxiao said.

There is a lack of accurate statistics on how much treasure money will be printed, and Zhu Youxiao cannot know how much needs to be printed. But one thing is certain, the current supply of treasure money on the market is in short supply, which makes the silver dollar circulate at the same time. Zhu Youxiao also used a stupid method, that is, according to the number of silver and copper dollars and gold reserves of the Imperial Bank to determine how many treasure banknotes need to be printed, and then increase the printing volume by 5 percent every year on this basis, of course, this part of the treasure money cannot be circulated due to damage and other reasons.

Zhu Youxiao predicted that within 10 to 20 years, treasure money would completely replace metal currency as the only currency of the empire. This is a matter of both advantages and disadvantages, Zhu Youxiao decided to reserve gold as an asset of the Imperial Bank, and his final goal was to establish a monetary system on the gold standard and formulate a monetary law for future generations that barely conformed to the laws of the market.

In order to prepare for the decisive battle against Houjin, a large number of strategic materials were sent to Liaodong, and Houjin also smelled an unusual smell.

"Your Majesty, according to the report of the Liaodong spies, the number of spies in the Liaodong region has increased significantly, and the minister thinks that the Jianguo has learned that the empire is about to use troops against the Jianyu." Wang Sai'er said.

"I ask Dongchang to find a way to eliminate the spies in Liaodong no matter what, and at the same time increase the infiltration of Jianjiao." Zhu Youxiao ordered.

"No."

"Now in Liaodong, there are constant conflicts between the empire and the Jianyu, and there are often small-scale conflicts between the scouts of the two sides." Wang Sai'er continued.

"The scouts on both sides clash often?" Zhu Youxiao asked.

"Yes, in addition to the extensive use of spies, Jianyu has also significantly increased the number of scouts, the number of Jianyu's scouts has doubled compared to the beginning of the year, and Sun Ge Lao has also sent a large number of scouts accordingly in order to deal with Jianyu's scouts." Wang Sai'er replied.

"Spread the field immediately." Zhu Youxiao said.

After Tian Ergeng became the commander of the Jinyi Guard, with his ruthlessness, he made achievements in anti-corruption and the White Lotus Sect. It was only with the full cooperation of Jinyiwei that the Inspectorate was able to quickly investigate the anti-corruption case in Henan. Moreover, in the investigation of the Henan anti-corruption case, Jinyiwei also traced the clues of the resurgence of the White Lotus Sect, and under Tian Ergeng's thunderous methods, the White Lotus Sect was cleared up again by Jinyiwei before it could resurge.

"Tian Aiqing, according to the news from the East Factory, a large number of spies have been sent by the Jianyu in Liaodong, and I ask Jinyiwei to cooperate with the East Factory, and the spies in Liaodong must be cleared as soon as possible." Zhu Youxiao said.

"No." Tian Ergeng replied respectfully.

"In the future, Jinyiwei will focus on organized crime, counter-espionage, violent crime, and official crimes within the empire, etc." Zhu Youxiao said.

"No."

According to Zhu Youxiao's plan, Dongchang will become the CIA of the empire in the future, and Jinyiwei will become the FBI of the empire.

……

Zhu Youxiao gave an order, and the spy war in Liaodong took the lead.

The cloud tower is located in the city of Ningyuan, in Ningyuan only two years, but it is the most famous green building in eastern Liaoning, and the Qinyun of the cloud tower is known as the first oiran in eastern Liaoning.

"Mother, there is a new order from the peak." The old bustard said to Qin Yun, who was putting on makeup.

"How so?" Qin Yun didn't stop putting on her makeup, she just asked lightly.

"Cooperate with Jinyiwei to clear the spies in eastern Liaoning." The old bustard said.

"Jin Yiwei also interfered in this matter?" Qin Yun asked. Qin Yun has no good impression of Jin Yiwei, and the fall of Qin Yun's family is also related to Jin Yiwei.

"Well, it is said that this is the will of His Majesty." The old bustard said softly.

"Since Your Majesty's will, then it is enough to do our part well." Qin Yun said softly.

"Admiral Wang said that after the matter is completed, the mother can leave the East Factory, and you can choose what you want to do." The old bustard said.

"I was adopted by the Royal Orphanage at the age of twelve, and was later trained as a spy in the orphanage, in order to repay the emperor's kindness, at the age of fifteen, I voluntarily came to Liaodong to run the cloud building. I really didn't know what I could do when I left Dongchang. Qin Yun said with a smile.

"Mother, you are still young, you are different from me, I am a criminal wife, for the sake of my family, eleven years ago I had to agree to Dongchang's request to go to Liaodong as a spy, from the day I came to Liaodong, I am destined to not go back, unless the construction is destroyed. And you, mother, I suggest that you can go to Fengqiuhuang. The bustard said.

"Phoenix? Your Majesty's phoenix? Qin Yun asked. There are now very strict secrecy rules in the East Factory, and no one who comes out to work as a spy is allowed to contact anyone before.

"Exactly, I have been in the East Factory for more than ten years, and I can know a lot of things that you don't know, in Liaodong, in fact, it is not the Liaodong Institute that is responsible for managing the East Factory, but the Phoenix of Shanhaiguan." The old bustard said softly.

"It's a good choice to go to Fengqiuhuang, I wonder if Admiral Wang will agree?" Qin Yun nodded and said.

"Your Majesty attaches great importance to meritorious service and neglects his background, and the same is true of Dongchang now, I believe that if this matter is successful, Admiral Wang will definitely agree." The old bustard said.

"I've been feeling unwell these days, and my mother will invite a few sisters to play mahjong for me tomorrow. Qin Yun thought about it and said with a smile.

Although Qin Yun is the Oiran of Liaodong, she attaches great importance to the relationship with her peers, and she has a good relationship with the prostitutes in Liaodong, and there are dozens of handkerchief sisters alone.

"I'll make an appointment with them for you later." The old bustard also nodded happily.
