Every move of the Yan Wangfu will attract attention from all sides, Sima Guang entered the palace, and after talking for a long time, it immediately exploded in Beijing. People from all walks of life have a feeling that this is really the case, the prince still values the most calm and humble disciple, Sima Junshi takes over the prime minister, it is already the trend of the times, and no one can stop it!

Some people are even ready to go to meet Sima Xianggong immediately, have a good relationship with each other, and pave the way for the future.

But there are always some exceptions that look different from ordinary people.

"I don't think so!"

Zhang Dian shook his head again and again, "If Master really wants to use Sima Guang, why bother so much, as long as he abolished Wen Yanbo and stopped the reluctant Xianggong, no one would be able to shake Sima Junshi, not to mention that Master doesn't have this strength!" ”

Lu Huiqing's face was ugly, after all, he was one of the parties, and he couldn't help but ponder.

"Brother Zihou, is it true that the master wants to contain Jun Shigong and leave the two old ones?"

"Impossible!" Zhang Dian said firmly: "I know Master's temper, he won't calculate his apprentice like this, and Sima Guang doesn't have the capital to betray Master, don't forget, we are still here!" ”

Finally, Lu Huiqing nodded.

"So, we still have a chance?"

"Of course!" Zhang Dian smiled and said: "Brother Jifu, as long as the hundred officials vote, we will definitely be far ahead and compare them all!" ”

Lu Huiqing's hanging heart let go of an inch.

Compared with these two, Wen Yanbo is much deeper. He speculated that Wang Ningan was setting up a big game, although he was not sure who was the lucky one, but it was certain that he Wen Kuanfu was by no means the candidate that Wang Ningan liked.

How do you want to fight?

The best thing is to provoke chaos under Wang Ning'an's door, and let a few boys eat dogs, so that he can have a chance...... It's just that Wang Ning'an's strength is too strong, even if he abdicates, the court and the central government are all his people, how to clear his power and monopolize power is really not an easy thing.

Wen Yanbo thought about it for a long time and brought his son Wen Jifu over.

"How's it going?"

Wen Jifu patted his chest and said: "Please rest assured, my father, the child has always been reliable, I have asked people to check Wang Ning'an, as well as all the articles and lyrics of the people around him." Don't say it, the child found a few, please look at it. ”

Wen Yanbo took it, looked at it from beginning to end, and shook his head slightly.

"This thing is too far-fetched, isn't it? But...... It seems to work too! Wen Yanbo thought about it for a while, and then had an idea, he lowered his voice and said, "We can't poke this thing out, otherwise we will have to cause trouble." ”

Wen Jifu smiled and said: "Please rest assured, Dad, the child has already thought about it, and I am going to give these things to Uncle Wang!" How old are you? ”

"Hahaha, Wang Yuanze is a straw bag, and he is eager for quick success and short-mindedness, but he can use it, or that sentence, don't show your feet!"

Wang Yan didn't know that in Wen Yanbo's eyes, he was useless, he was a big rice bucket, how could Wang Yan, who regarded himself as a little saint, be embarrassed!

"Dad, Wang Ningan supports Sima Guang!"

He directly said loudly: "Can't wait any longer!" Daddy, let's do it! ”

Wang Anshi threw the brush and slapped the table, "Shoot, what's the move?" ”

"Of course, it's to arrest Sima Guang and his family." Wang Yan said: "The child has already checked, that Lu Yu and Sima Guang have a deep relationship, and he has purchased a manor outside the city, Sima Guang often goes there as a guest, and I heard that there are many officials who also often go over, they are forming a party for personal gain, and my father is in charge of the courtyard as an inspector, so he should do it!" ”

The more Wang Anshi listened, the more angry he became, "Yuan Ze, have you forgotten back then?" Zheng Xia's gang used you to attack Yan Jidao, what a big deal it started, why haven't you learned a lesson? ”

In a word, Wang Yan was speechless.

He was embarrassed, "Dad, it's been a few years, don't mention it again, the child has changed...... This time the situation is urgent, if my father can't take over the position of prime minister, in another five years, Wang Ningan's disciples will all grow up, and then it will not be a Lu Huiqing competing for prime minister! ”

Wang Yan finally got to the point, as long as it takes another five years, like Zhang Dian, Zeng Bu, Su Zhe, Han Zongwu, many people can accumulate enough strength, and Wang Anshi was also old at that time, and it was too much to fight with a group of young people.

In any case, this time it is a must!

"You're just too persistent." Wang Anshi said earnestly: "Of course you have to fight for your father, but you can't come nonsense, King Yan just summoned Sima Guang, he is still the prime minister, and the two ministers talk about official business, what can be the big deal?" Don't make more trouble! ”

"Daddy!"

Wang Yan is crying, the sky and the earth are big, and the prime minister is the biggest!

He didn't believe it, what kind of government affairs could he talk about at this time, unless Wang Ningan had a problem with his brain...... "Okay, don't bother me, remember, and don't toss around, so as not to get into trouble." ”

Wang Anshi waved his hand and drove his son out, Wang Yan was angry, grandma, I don't believe they only talk about official business, dad is too naïve!

Uncle Wang couldn't have imagined that his father had really guessed correctly, Wang Ningan called Sima Guang over, just for official business.

"Master, I'm going to lower the interest rate next, that's what I think...... It is difficult to make a profit of more than 10 percent a year when investing in industry, so if you want to channel funds into the industrial field, you must keep the interest rate down, which is also Master's consistent advocacy...... The disciple thought that it should be pressed to less than 5 percent, that the people were profit-oriented, and the interest rate was low, and they could not make money by relying on money, so they would naturally invest in industry and commerce. ”

After hearing this, Wang Ningan shook his head, "Junshi, your idea seems to make sense in theory, but the reality may not be so. ”

Sima Guang was puzzled: "Please ask Master for advice." ”

"Pointing is not enough, it is also a little speculation of mine. Industry and commerce are not very easy to do, not only in terms of capital, but also in terms of talent, management, and market...... All aspects are indispensable, and for most people, it is impossible to invest in industry and commerce, especially to build a factory...... So I estimate that even if the interest rate is lowered, it will be difficult to have an effect. ”

"That'...... There will always be people who will invest, right? Sima Guang said tentatively.

"Yes, but I think more people will speculate!"

"Speculation?"

"Hmm." Wang Ningan said: "Those who have money should first consider the safety and preservation of funds, because if the interest rate is low, the income will be reduced, so they will invest in more value-preserving areas, as well as the financial market with more profits!" ”

"Yikes!"

Sima Guang finally suddenly realized, "Master, do you mean that there will be another round of food price increases?" Like last year? ”

Wang Ningan thought about it for a moment and objected.

"Food prices will not rise in the short term, because we took a lot of measures last year, and this year's food supply is quite sufficient, and there will be no chaos. The real problem is the stock market, and by the way, the real estate in the capital! ”

Sima Guang thought for a moment, and immediately sweated on his sideburns.

Over the years, the Great Song Dynasty has become stronger and stronger, attracting visitors from all over the world, and everyone wants to buy property in the capital, live at the feet of the Son of Heaven, and bathe in the emperor's grace...... Needless to say, house prices have already skyrocketed.

Even in the worst years, it will not fall below 10 percent.

You want to keep the interest rate down and let people invest in business and commerce, and people want to borrow cheaply, and then buy a house and wait for the appreciation!

Sima Guang finally noticed the loophole and immediately said: "Master, disciple will go and formulate a method to prohibit speculation and investment in real estate......"

Wang Ningan just smiled and didn't say much, but everything was silent. In the past few years, a large part of the local tax revenue in Xijing has been real estate transactions, and if it is banned, how will the yamen operate?

What's more, it's also a good thing for people to settle in the capital, how can they ban it!

And there's more to come!

"Junshi, in addition, you are also going to issue additional currency?"

Sima Guang's head; "That's right, Yelu Hongji was captured, and the Liao State was incorporated into the territory of the Great Song Dynasty, and the unification of the currency is, of course, the trend of the times and something that must be done." Sima Guang said: "The disciple has calculated, with the volume of the Khitan, plus the gold and silver reserves, it is not a problem to issue an additional 30 million yuan, with this money, it is just enough to fill some of the deficits, and then govern the Khitan, it will be easy to do!" ”

Wang Ningan took a deep breath, "Junshi, how are you going to issue currency?" ”

"Of course, in accordance with the rules of the Great Song Dynasty, paper banknotes guaranteed by gold and silver were issued to exchange the copper coins in the hands of the Khitans." Sima Guang said, also showing hesitation, it seems that there is something wrong with this matter!

"Master, paper money for copper money, after all, paper for money, I'm afraid that some people won't accept it."

Wang Ningan laughed helplessly, "If you don't accept it, it's okay, I think it's going to be a beacon everywhere!" ”

"So serious?"

Wang Ningan said calmly: "Direct exchange, if I am the executive official, I will definitely lower the price of copper coins, and even print more money, directly buy local materials, and buy everything that should be bought, this is a good time to loot wealth!" ”

Oops!

Sima Guang couldn't wait to slap his two mouths, this master had just played, didn't he just rely on the issuance of additional currency, grab shopping materials, and mess up the Khitan economy?

Ignore the things that are close at hand!

At that time, it was still ruled by Yelu Hongji, and now it is directly controlled by the Great Song Dynasty, so it is not to loot wealth, but to knock out bones and suck the marrow, eat people without spitting out bones!

As if in order to verify Wang Ning'an's prophecy, sure enough, there was a problem on the Yunzhou side, Zhang Qi played, saying that he had won the battle again, according to the secret report sent, the cause was that the two tribes refused to accept the currency of the Great Song Dynasty, and as a result, there was a conflict with the Song army, and more than 20 people were killed.

Zhang Qi was furious and immediately retaliated, sending men and horses to pacify the two small tribes, taking all the young and strong people and using them as slaves to build roads, and the rest of the women and children were distributed to other tribes.

And issued a strict order, no one is allowed to refuse the currency of the Great Song Dynasty, otherwise, the rebellion will be punished!

Zhang Kai's disposition was decisive, but after Sima Guang read it, he complained bitterly, cold sweat came down from his sideburns, and he said angrily: "Zhang Kai is too much, he actually deceived the court, he is committing a big taboo, in case the news is leaked, someone will definitely hold on to it...... Master, the disciple thinks that he should be pressed down immediately! ”

Wang Ningan shook his head, "Junshi, do you say that at this time, can you suppress it?" ”
