Chapter 567: Li You Run

In the past two days, Li You closed his door and thanked customers, and he was very low-key in officialdom. The general courtesy visits are no longer present, and the home is suddenly much quieter.

He originally wanted to spend his days leisurely, and he would wait until the end of the New Year. But after going to the Silver Horn, I found that there was still a lot of work to be done. There is no phenomenon that as long as you appoint a few subordinates and click a few words, you will automatically get on the right track and everything is thriving.

Looking at the current situation of the silver number, Li You had a very strong sense of time. The advanced concepts are all stored in his head, and others have no intuitive feelings, so he must personally and forcefully promote them.

Therefore, Li You had to shout about his hard work while continuing to worry, and today he went out to the household department. In the exchange of money in different places, the flow of government treasury and silver is a big business, and if you want to start in this regard, you cannot bypass the account department in charge of silver.

So although Li You's relationship with the household department is very discordant, he still stubbornly went to the household department, and his idea was to explore the path by himself first, and if he didn't succeed, he would ask the eldest princess to come forward.

Of course, according to his own estimates, the probability of failure is eighty percent, who made him Li You and not someone else. But he's never let go of a glimmer of hope.

Outside the household department, Li You can only be regarded as a gentry celebrity now, and without official robes to protect his body, he naturally can't go in directly. He took out the famous thorn and the silver and handed it to the doorman.

His name thorn is very simple now, it is no longer the kind of dense official names written in the past, and there are two or three crosses at every turn, and now there are only four words "Xujiang Li You" on it.

At least at present, 90 percent of the officials in the yamen of the Beijing division know the name and the identity of the representative.

The household department official obviously also knows Li You, this kind of Tianyamen door official, the news is even better than many officials, and his eyes are brighter. If someone else presented this kind of disdain and embellishment, he would have been torn up and thrown out, but Li You was the special one.

The doorman didn't dare to show his usual slackness, took the famous thorn and quickly put away the silver, and then asked respectfully: "Who did Mr. Li vote for?" ”

Li You thought about it, in the bureaucratic machine, if you want to do something new that has no old routines, you are afraid that no one will want to take responsibility, so you will simply find the biggest one, whether it will work or not is his word. So he replied to the doorman: "I wonder if Yan Shangshu can be empty?" ”

The doorman took Li You's name thorn in his hand and reported it inside. After a while, the doorman came out and said to Li You: "Master Shangshu is just free, Mr. Li, please stop." ”

Li You admitted that he was surprised, although because of Duan Zhien and Bai Shilang, there had been signs of easing the relationship with Peng Ge Lao's faction recently. But as the person who ruined Yan Shangshu's opportunity to enter the cabinet with his own hands, he really didn't expect Yan Shangshu to receive him so happily.

He thought that he would encounter some difficulties or refusals, but he didn't expect it to go so smoothly, and he walked inside with the door in disbelief. Fortunately, this is the household department, not a military camp with hidden murderous intentions, otherwise he would not dare to enter so casually if he was killed.

The household department occupies an area that is almost larger than any other yamen, and it is the one with the largest number of officials and the largest number of internal institutions among the six departments, and the affairs it is responsible for are also extremely complex.

Li You followed the doorman through three doors in a row before entering the inner courtyard where the hall official was. And he was led to a platform outside the gate of a high hall, and the doorkeeper went in to report it, and he was brought into the hall again.

There was a brazier and an incense burner in the house, and the faint smoke set off Yan Shangshu's faint expression, which was expected by Li You If Yan Shangshu was very enthusiastic about him, it would be a hell of a life. Probably Yan Shangshu only saw that he Li You had barely played a positive role recently, so he reluctantly met him with the overall situation. …,

Yan Shangshu didn't want to be polite with Li You, it was too disgusting, he couldn't pull this figure. He just asked straight to the point: "What is the matter with you going to the household department?" ”

"If you want to talk about a cooperation with the household department, please also ask the boss to support it." Li You replied.

If you don't go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, is there really something to ask for the door? Yan Shangshu quietly lowered his head and drank tea, waiting for Li You to say it himself.

"The heart of the world does not change, and it is our responsibility to exchange the world. Beijing division now has Huichang silver, next year to build a branch in Yangzhou, trial camp between the two silver exchange, this is the way to benefit the country and the people, but also ask the Ministry of Household assistance. ”

I have to say that Yan Shangshu is somewhat interested in this topic. As a scholar in charge of the imperial court's silver, of course he knew the benefits of foreign exchange, and of course he also knew that the world really needed such a set of exchange system, but he lacked powerful people to do it.

Yan Shangshu does not doubt Li You's ambition, but he has reservations about Li You's strength. But he didn't ask these questions for some reason, and asked directly: "What do you want the household department to do?" ”

Li You said: "The benefits of foreign exchange need not be said. That Yangzhou is an important place for finance and taxation, and pays more than 3 million yuan of two Huai salt taxes and Yangpu tariffs every year. If possible, it is expected that a small part of the household can be exchanged through the Huichang silver number, which can be regarded as a trial trial. If it succeeds, it can be implemented on a large scale from the following year. ”

These taxes have always been transported into Beijing by the local yamen, and if they can be exchanged through the silver number, the Yangzhou branch over there receives the silver, and the Beijing city general number receives the voucher or reliable information, it can be cashed into the silver taels to the household department, which obviously saves time, effort and worry.

The reason why Li You used Yangzhou as a pilot is very simple. Yangzhou has a lot of taxes and silver, and consumption is also active, which is extremely demanding for the exchange of silver and silver; The second is that there is a golden million in Yangzhou, which is a figure that can be relied on, where can I find the right person in other places?

After about two months, when the pilot is mature, it can be promoted on a large scale.

However, Yangzhou pays three or four million taels of silver every year, and with the current situation of the silver number, it is obvious that it cannot bear such a big business, and it cannot be turned around at all, not to mention that many new things need to be explored. Therefore, Li Youcai only asked the household department to take out a small part of Yangzhou's taxes, such as three and a half million taels for experimental exchange.

If Yangzhou runs smoothly, then the next semicolon is planned to be opened in Suzhou. Suzhou occupies one-tenth of the world's wealth, and the surrounding Songjiang, Changzhou, Huzhou, Jiaxing and other places are rich places, and only Suzhou, Songzhou, and Chang can account for one-tenth of the total money and grain of the imperial court. Therefore, like Yangzhou, it is a very suitable place to carry out foreign exchange.

It can be said that the realization of non-local exchange between tax and bank is beneficial to all aspects. Even in terms of handling fees, you can also give rebates to the household department by means of inflated and low means, which can have one more gray income comparable to Bing Jing and Tan Jing, why not do it?

It is the household department that can get benefits, so Li You dares to swagger to the household department with whom the relationship is not harmonious.

Yan Shangshu pondered for a moment, and Li You guessed that he had already been moved. When he was thinking about what to say and whether to show the power of the silver trumpet, he saw that Yan Shangshu suddenly slapped the case and reprimanded loudly: "The court has its own laws, and the government has its own rules!" Taxation is the most important matter of the country, and the state uses it for all purposes. The silver number also wants to meddle in the major affairs of the government's tax department, and this official sees this as ill-intentioned, so there is no need to say more! ”

Li You was very surprised, he didn't expect Yan Shangshu to refuse so neatly, just now it was obvious that from his expression, Yan Shangshu should be a little tempted.

He tried his best to fight: "The world is like chess, no one can stick to the rules and remain unchanged, this matter is beneficial to the country, the people, others and themselves, please think twice!" If it is done in the hands of the boss, it will create an unprecedented achievement, or it may go down in history! What's more, the first year of trial only used hundreds of thousands of taels, the risk is not big, why not try? ”…,

"How can the state's heavy weapons be entrusted to private individuals?"

"In fact, it was just escorted by the officers and soldiers and delivered to the Beijing Division, and it became a way of exchange from the silver number to the Beijing Division, which was directly delivered to the Beijing Division. The imperial court levied a lot of taxes, or was it used by the imperial court, how could it be called entrusted to private individuals? ”

Li You remembered something again, and added: "Regarding the exchange fee, it can be agreed between the silver number and the household department. This sentence is meaningful, about this cost, whether it is high or low, it is very knowledgeable.

Yan Shangshu nodded slowly, Li You was overjoyed, it seems that there is a door! He was about to introduce the strength of Pingyinhao in detail, which made Yan Shangshu feel more at ease, but he heard Yan Shangshu say: "Very good! This official is here! ”

Li You was quite surprised by this, and agreed so simply? He hasn't had time to really lobby yet, "Besides, what's going on with Yan Shangshu going up and down today?" However, it is good to agree to "set sail on the corner of the street", but he has made a lot of preparations, and it seems that he will not need it.

Yan Shangshu said to Li You again: "I don't know what the style of your silver ticket is, what the quality of printing is, and whether you can afford the heavy task of foreign exchange, this still needs to be investigated." Go back and quickly send a few silver tickets to the official, and wait for the official to check it. ”

Li You was almost dumbfounded, this is a blatant bribe, give him a few real silver tickets, what is the difference between that and directly giving him silver? It's not that he is reluctant to give out the money, but he feels that such a straightforward and implicit bribery has only been seen in low-level petty officials, and it is very strange that the second-grade Shangshu boss also behaves like this.

But daring to ask for money is not a problem! Li You agreed: "I will go to the silver trumpet and order it to go down, and today I will send the men in the trumpet to the hands of the adults." ”

Until he left the household department, Li You was still puzzled, although today's matter was more unexpectedly successful, but it was always a little strange. The main reason is that it feels very stiff, and Yan Shangshu doesn't look like an old bureaucrat who has been fighting in Huan Hai for decades.

At first, the rejection was too simple and rude, almost blinding the benefits, even if you are conservative, you have to consider the pros and cons for a while.

Later, he went to the other extreme, and the promise was too rash, and he didn't even ask about the details of the silver number, and directly agreed.

And the most important thing is that asking for benefits is so straightforward and so disregardful, which is not like the obscure style common to a boss of Shangshu's rank.

What's the problem? Li You didn't want to think about it if he didn't understand, anyway, as long as he promised to try out some salt exchange between Yangzhou and Jingshi...... PS: Kavin!! I want to vomit when I write it!! There is not enough time tonight, and the fourth watch is too late, but don't worry! The fourth watch will be postponed until tomorrow morning, and it will appear on time! I'm going to force myself to stay up late!。 οΌ‰
