Chapter Ninety-Six: The Prime Minister bowed his head for the first time
Chen Shengzhi and the others only thought that Shen Yun would present the zazi when he played the right game in Shengping Building that day.
Who knows, even Zhao Ji only received it last night.
After Shen Yun left, Zhao Ji was still unwilling. And he also noticed that what Shen Yun said in the last place was to let him think about it again. With this sentence, Zhao Ji was sure that Shen Yun still had a way. Zhao Ji's enthusiasm for the new policy made Zhao Ji full of expectations for Shen Yun, and if this young man could make up for the loopholes in the Qingmiao Law, Zhao Ji did not have any plans to consider Shen Yun's suggestion.
Therefore, he sent the guards out and ordered to inquire what Shen Yun was doing after he returned.
This inquiry really made Zhao Ji a little overjoyed. Since Shen Yun could still think about this issue with all his heart, the little emperor waved his hand, secretly ordered the chamberlain to dress up in disguise, and sent Shen Yun a few new clothes. And although the clothes are all ordinary styles, the color is from crimson to red, from red to purple.
The implications speak for themselves.
When Shen Yun opened the burden in the reminder of the waiter, and when he saw the clothes, he seemed to hear Zhao Ji promise him: "Young man, do a good job, as long as you do it well, you will be able to rise to the top in the future." ”
Of course, this is also a tacit understanding. Zhao Ji won't say it clearly, and Shen Yun won't boast about this everywhere. Quan Dang was a meeting gift from this wealthy businessman named Xu Zhao in the capital. Well, Xu Zhao didn't make it up by Shen Yun himself, but the old steward next to him, who was obviously physically disabled.
Shen Yun accepted the clothes, and naturally he had to show a handful, so as to live up to the grace of the saint. When the chamberlain sent this thick notebook to Zhao Ji's hand, Zhao Ji chose to return to the harem later.
There is no way, the heirs of the heavenly family are difficult, and the officials can't wait for the emperor to be as diligent as an ox day and night. But who knows that the cow will be exhausted to death sooner or later if it is made like this.
Shen Yun's notebook made Zhao Ji's eyes light up.
In fact, when he saw the content at the front, Zhao Ji knew what Shen Yun was going to say, the word bank was too westernized, so Shen Yun used the other two words - cabinet. The cabinet workshop first appeared in the Tang Dynasty, and it was very popular in the Tang Tianbao period. The business is to keep gold and silver property on behalf of merchants, collect a certain rent, and merchants need to use time to withdraw with tokens, which is the earliest prototype of the bank.
Later, because of the war, there was a flying money with the participation of the government, which could not only ensure the property safety of the merchants, but also allow the government to take the opportunity to make a profit, but later the world was peaceful, and no one used it.
Shen Yun used the form of a cabinet to separate the new method of Changping from the previous Changping. It forms a separate yamen that is subordinate to the three divisions, but does not have direct financial dealings. This yamen first appeared in the form of imperial merchants, ensuring the uniqueness of its status to the greatest extent, and then within a year, it was laid in the capital cities of Zhuzhou. After three years of operation, it will gradually be implemented in each prefecture.
In fact, the ministers of the imperial merchants know very well that as long as the means are justified, they will not cause any criticism. And Shen Yun set up only two businesses, one is to make small loans to ordinary people, and the other is to attract businessmen to save money. Short-term deposits will be subject to a certain amount of security, while long-term deposits will be given a small amount of interest.
Of course, the money will be earmarked, and the three divisions and the transshipment envoys are not allowed to use it without authorization. If there is a loan, you must pay double the interest.
Shen Yun's purpose is to use his shallow financial knowledge to find a temporarily feasible path for the Great Song Dynasty. The interest rate of the cabinet shop is set in stone, and it will not go through the hands of the local government, so as to reduce the exploitation of officials as much as possible, and the shortcomings of the previous Qingmiao Law can be temporarily alleviated.
Moreover, in the past, the capital of the Evergreen Seedling Law basically came from the sale of these things issued by the imperial court, but the cabinet shop only needed to borrow a part of the capital from the three divisions, and it could be returned within a few years.
After Zhao Ji saw it, he admired Shen Yun's rigorous conception more and more. Compared with the Qingmiao method, it is true that as Shen Yun said, his method is a little slow to take effect, but it has turned many obstacles into invisible. And it also makes up for the shortcomings of today's green seedling law. However, after all, he was still a little reluctant to use the current powerful Qingmiao Method, so Zhao Ji thought about it and asked the chamberlain to mix Shen Yun's notebook into the official document the next day.
He wanted to see what the prime ministers thought of the matter.
When Chen Shengzhi arrived, Zhao Ji was dealing with the notes at hand. In fact, there is nothing to look forward to, five or six out of ten are impeached by courtiers, and the reasons are also strange.
This old man came over, and Zhao Ji was naturally humble. Put down his hand and come out of the imperial case to greet him, and when he got closer, someone brought the embroidered pier for Chen Shengzhi to sit down, and then asked: "Chen Xiang is here, but what is the matter?" ”
Chen Shengzhi bowed his head: "Your Majesty, the old minister has a Dao Zazi in his hand, which is quite important." Therefore, I came in a hurry, hoping that Your Majesty would forgive my sins. ”
"Where did Chen Xiang say, what kind of note did he say, let Chen Xiang have to go in person." The recitals that have been reviewed by the Zhongshu Province are finally taken to Zhao Ji by the inner servants. Therefore, the prime ministers will not come in person unless necessary. Zhao Ji asked knowingly, in fact, he was also adding weight to Shen Yun's book.
Chen Shengzhi didn't understand anything.
took out the notebook and handed it to Zhao Ji: "Your Majesty, this is the notebook of Shen Yun, a new science and technology scholar." There are some opinions in it, and Lao Chen feels that it is quite beneficial to today's Qingmiao Law. With the consent of Zeng Xianggong and Wang Xianggong, the old minister hurriedly sent it, wanting His Majesty to have a sneak peek. ”
It was this sentence that Zhao Ji wanted to hear.
Wang Anshi's stubborn and serious image still made the little emperor a little worried. If Zhao Ji directly handed over the contents of the note to Wang Anshi, he didn't have to think about it, this person would definitely put on a face, and then one day suddenly took out a note and asked to be released as an official. Zhao Ji is more looking forward to the new deal, and the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military forces can support the new deal and now only Wang Anshi is the only one.
There were several disputes between monarchs and ministers, but in the end, Wang Anshi used this method to make Zhao Ji compromise.
Zhao Ji admires him very much in his heart, but it is this character that makes the little emperor still a little afraid. Since Chen Shengzhi has already sought Wang Anshi's consent at this time, then he can take Shen Yun's note to the court to discuss it with the ministers.
However, since Chen Shengzhi, who is old and serious, is here, Zhao Ji still wants to hear his specific thoughts on this notebook: "Chen Xiang, do you think that the content of this notebook will be anything omission when it is really implemented." ”
Chen Shengzhi thought about it, but suddenly shook his head: "Alas, the idea is good. But when it comes to the localities, don't talk about other difficulties, just talk about the problem of manpower, which is enough to give me a headache for a while. ”
Shen Yun's notebook even set the rules of the cabinet shop, and basically they didn't have to bother. is mainly the person in charge of the cabinet shop, unlike the usual random transfer of officials, this time Shen Yun said very clearly, only those who have passed the examination of the clear calculation before are qualified to preside over the cabinet business in the state capitals.
However, for so many years in the Great Song Dynasty, it has been several years since the abolition of the first subject. Where can you find so many people in one swoop?
However, after pouring cold water on Zhao Ji, Chen Shengzhi praised him instead: "I have to say, this Shen Yun is really powerful." came up with such a thorough plan on his own, and even wrote out the problems that were easy to occur during the operation and had countermeasures, this kind of ability is much more powerful than that Lu Huiqing. ”
Lu Huiqing is a well-known pioneer of the New Party, and many of the orders of the New Deal this year have his shadow, Chen Shengzhi said this, in fact, to tell Zhao Ji that Shen Yun is a person who can be of great use.
However, at this time, even if Zhao Ji values Shen Yun again, he still has to follow the rules of the selection of officials. Chen Shengzhi said this, which made Zhao Ji have a good number in his heart. In the future, if there is any problem with the new policy, you can ask Shen Yun to ask.
Seeing Chen Shengzhi's retirement, Zhao Ji's frowning brows stretched slightly. Since this person also said that Shen Yun's method can be implemented, then tomorrow morning, he will notify the hundred officials and let them discuss it again. With joy, Fang had just provoked him to be in a bad mood, and he didn't seem so disgusted at this time.
The next morning.
The mutual attacks as always did not allow Zhao to forcibly suppress them as before, but only allowed these officials to impeach each other, and then said a few words without pain. For those who were particularly fierce in their rhetoric, Zhao Ji did not release one by one as before, but focused on asking about those reasonable and well-founded performances when his position was biased towards the new policy.
The atmosphere in the court hall was a little delicate for a while.
The old party suddenly felt that the emperor was not as supportive of the new deal as before, and was preparing to take advantage of the situation to carry out a wave of attacks so that the new policy would die out completely. And the new party, which has already made preparations, is also a little panicked at this time. What does the little emperor's attitude mean? Wang Anshi is not the kind of person who never forgets, and he only remembers a rough idea of Shen Yun's recital, and after he went back, he discussed it with the henchmen of the new party, but in the end he didn't discuss any results.
However, Lu Huiqing and others are not as calm as Wang Anshi.
This is almost to use their new party as a stepping stone, how can this be endured.
wait
After the ministers' speeches were finished, Zhao Ji said indifferently: "I read a very interesting note yesterday, and this morning, I found someone to read it to Zhuqing. Let you wait and see if what is said in this note can work. ”
seemed to be considerate of Chen Shengzhi, an old minister, and Zhao Xuan summoned Fan Chun up. This arrangement has made the courtiers feast, is this Fan Chun's book?
And Fan Chun took the notebook, and when he turned the first page and saw who the sparse person was, he was also shocked - when did Shen Yun actually have the right to go up and listen to the sky?
