The interior of the arched hall was terrifyingly quiet. At this time, even if Li Boyan was to be summoned, Zhao Kuo should have been in the Funing Hall or the Qinzheng Hall of the palace, but because there were many people in the Inner Dynasty, this matter was not trivial, so he was summoned in the Vertical Arch Palace.

The loss of five sons in a row is such a sad thing for a father. Zhao Kuo has not recovered his appearance after a long time, if he dies early due to illness, it can only be said that God wants him to become a loner, but this time someone is poisoning, then it is not a natural disaster, but a man-made disaster!

"Tell me, what kind of person would kill a killer like this?"

Li Boyan's heart sank, keeping in mind Zhao Ruyu's reminder, and replied: "The grass people don't know. ”

"And what do you know?"

Li Boyan was silent for a moment and said, "The grass people only know that the princes of the Holy Heaven are not at fault. ”

"You can speak, yes, my emperor is right, these villains, what are they rushing at me, why do you want to attack my emperor!"

Feeling Zhao Kuo's resentment, Li Boyan said slowly: "If there is nothing wrong with the saint, the grass people will not disturb your rest." ”

"Slow, I read Ye Shi's book, the money shortage mentioned above, can I really solve it by myself?"

Li Boyan nodded and said, "It's really possible." ”

"I don't believe it, Ye Zhengze said that it is all empty avenues, since the Yongzhou model was proposed by you, then you tell me, if there is a shortage of money in the city now, what should I do?"

Don't pay attention to anything else, this money shortage is really a problem that has been implemented throughout the Great Song Dynasty, and it has always been an unsolvable problem.

"Holy Lord, the grass people ask you a simple question, is there less money?"

Zhao Kuo frowned and said, "It can only be more, it can't be less, unless someone ruins money." ”

"So where does the money go if it doesn't circulate in the market?"

"I'm here for you to solve, not for me to give me a problem."

Li Boyan said slowly: "If there is a money shortage in Lin'an now, first, it is the trend of rich people in the city to save money, and this money is used as town treasury money, and second, it is this money that flows to other places, for example, Yongzhou's glaze has recently become particularly popular in the market, and this fruit wine, Suzhou and Lin'an people are vying to buy it." ”

"If I remember well, these things belong to your Li family, right?"

Li Boyan said with a smile: "Exactly, but has the saint recently heard that there is a shortage of money in Suzhou and Lin'an?" Not really. Because the grass people used the money to buy grain in Suzhou and Hangzhou, and took it to Jinghu for disaster relief, so the money returned to the market. Think about it, if all this money is hidden in the house, what is the difference between it and stones? ”

Zhao Kuo suddenly realized, and then frowned again, and said: "That's just you, there are so many of my people, is it possible that I have to let them take out money one by one to help the victims?" ”

"Naturally not. The money banks that the grass people have recently planned in various places can solve the dilemma of money shortage. ”

"Money?"

Li Boyan smiled: "Exactly." The grass people's money bank is to turn the stones in the hands of those rich people into living money. Saving money in the grass people's money village, one hundred wen can make a profit of three wen a year, all of which are saved money, stored in the treasury at home, it is better to hand it over to the grass people, so that it can be profitable and safe? ”

Zhao Kuo was shocked, "You...... What are you going to do with looting so much people's wealth! Zhao Kuo was bluffed, in case Li Boyan didn't pay back the money, wouldn't the world be in chaos?

"Don't panic, money, naturally let him regenerate money. If the money saved is still in the treasury of the bank, it will naturally be a pile of stones, and let them circulate in the market, so that the grass people will benefit, and those depositors will also benefit. ”

Zhao Kuo frowned and said: "Wouldn't this kind of money be more reliable if it is handed over to the imperial court?" ”

Li Boyan smiled, and sure enough, he had expected it a long time ago, so he smiled and said: "The government can't do this matter." ”

"Why?"

"Because this money, once it enters the treasury of the government, even if it is greedy by some people, let me ask the official, do depositors dare to ask the government for money? The grass people are businessmen, so once the interests of depositors are damaged, they will naturally sue the official, but the official is greedy, try to ask the saint, the people of the Great Song Dynasty, who should they sue? ”

Zhao Kuo narrowed his eyes and asked, "Could it be that there is a shortage of money, so I can really only rely on you businessmen and be helpless?" ”

"Of course not." Li Boyan said with a smile, "The official family, the grass people found a silver mine for the official family. ”

Zhao Kuo's pupils shrank, "How do you say this?" ”

"Today, my Great Song Dynasty merchants, crisscrossing the four seas, the feudal merchants are constantly coming and going, the money of the Great Song Dynasty, in addition to the territory of the Great Song Dynasty, also flowed out to Fusang, Java, Tianzhu and other feudal countries, and the Fan States all respect the Song money, so then again, the money in the Great Song Dynasty is indeed less."

Zhao Kuo narrowed his eyes and snorted coldly: "These feudal merchants are really hateful! In order to mint money every year, my Great Song Dynasty suffered from no copper, but unexpectedly it was taken away by these feudal merchants! ”

"Official, this is a good thing."

"A good thing? Is money shortage a good thing? ”

Li Boyan smiled and said: "The grass people met a Fusang monk in Yongzhou last year, and asked him to bring a letter back to Fusang. Fusang's silver is so much that it will surprise the officials. ”

"Fuso has silver, so what? My Great Song money flows into Fusang, and the merchants only trade with Song money, what should I do? ”

Li Boyan said with some embarrassment: "Official, the grass people are rich......

“……”

Zhao Kuo's brain hurt a little, and he hadn't come back yet. Li Boyan's thoughts, which were hundreds of years ahead, really gave this ancient man a headache.

"What do you mean I should do?"

Yu Zhaorong on the side shuddered, Grandpa, was it thunder just now? Why are our ears bad? What do I hear? It must be an auditory hallucination, a hallucination!

"The official family can make a decree that the great Song merchants who traded with Fusang were not allowed to bring Song money into Hong Kong, and they would all be exchanged for gold and silver, and those who violated it would be fined."

Zhao Kuo was stunned, and said in a speech: "My money is already flowing in Fanbang, if you let me make this will again, then in my territory, there will be less copper coins!" More money shortage?! ”

Li Boyan raised his head and said with a smile: "But Saint, we have more gold and silver, how much is copper worth, and how much is gold and silver worth?" The gold and silver of the four seas are remitted in the Song realm, and the gold and silver coins will be minted at that time, isn't it wonderful? ”

Shock!

Absolutely shocking!

Zhao Kuo felt his scalp tingle deeply. If you really want to go on according to Li Boyan's plan, exchange copper for silver, and then mint coins with silver, it will be a good deal!

He has put aside the pain of losing his son, because he sees the bright future of the Great Song Dynasty!

"How many years will it take to conceive of you?"

Li Boyan was stunned for a moment and said, "Let's talk about it for ten years." ”

Zhao Kuo took a deep breath and said slowly: "Zhao Qing's new learning, is this?" ”

Li Boyan nodded.

"Well, stand down. You have made meritorious contributions to me one after another, and the reward will be issued tomorrow, go back, I am tired. ”

Li Boyan didn't get an affirmative answer from Zhao Kuo, but he was not in a hurry, after all, this was related to the country's plans, if he could make Zhao Kuo agree in a few words, then he would not be Li Boyan.

Let the chamberlain send Li Boyan away, Yu Zhaorong returned to the hall and said: "Official, the hour is not early, even if it is not early tomorrow, you must rest and recuperate the dragon body and go to bed early." ”

Zhao Kuo raised his tired head and asked, "Zhaorong, are you credible about what this kid said?" ”

Yu Zhaorong was trembling, he had been miserable by Li Boyan today, and hurriedly replied: "This old slave...... The old slave is stupid and does not know the way of the merchants. ”

"Well, I'm tired, help me go back and rest. The most important thing now is to find out the great rebel! ”
