Chapter 130 The Three Heroes of Shuzhong

"The functions of the Great Song Dynasty Imperial Silver Village will be far more than the previous papermaking institute, and the issuance of paper money is only one of them, and it also has the role of deposit, loan, foreign exchange and other credit intermediaries. Ruan Aiqing, the original imperial court's papermaking institute, the local Jiaozi affairs, money introduction affairs, etc. were all classified into the Great Song Dynasty Yinzhuang, two months later the Yinzhuang was formally established, and gradually developed to the state capitals, and finally spread throughout the country. In addition, you will compile the purpose of the establishment of the bank, the main functions of the bank, the criteria for the issuance of new banknotes, and the exchange methods with the original banknotes, etc., and distribute them to officials at all levels above the county government. ”

"Yes, I obey."

"Ladies and gentlemen, I intend to issue new banknotes to replace the existing money and other coins after the official establishment of Yinzhuang, and after the new banknotes are put into circulation, they will be the only legally circulated currency in our dynasty, and the original local issuance of all kinds of money will be cancelled and the silver and copper coins currently in circulation, and after a period of coexistence, only new banknotes will be allowed to circulate in the market. If there is a local private person who counterfeits new banknotes, he will be beheaded for public display, which is revised by the Ministry of Criminal Affairs, promulgated and widely publicized before the official establishment of the bank. ”

Chen Zongli, the secretary of the Criminal Department, said: "The Criminal Department receives the order. ”

"Well, what do you think about the name of this new banknote?"

Ma Tingluan said: "The minister thought that it could be called the Great Song Dynasty, which was concise and concise, representing the banknotes issued by my Great Song Dynasty. ”

Liao Yingzhong said: "Your Majesty, I think it can be called a dragon coin, and I use the totem dragon of thousands of years in China as the name. ”

Ma Tingluan and Liao Yingzhong represent the two camps of the DPRK and China respectively, and these two names also have the most supportive opinions. "Great Song coins, dragon coins." It all sounds good, but the centrist faction is divided into two factions, each with its own opinion.

"Your Majesty, the waiter of the Ministry of Commerce of Weichen has a long life."

Zan Wanshou, as the champion of Xianchun's new department, inspected on behalf of the sky, and just returned to the capital before that.

"Zan Aiqing, let's talk about it."

"Your Majesty, the opinions of Lord Ma and Lord Liao are synthesized, and the ministers think that it is better to call it the Great Song Dragon Coin, referred to as Song Yin, which not only reflects the paper money issued by the Great Song Dynasty, but also uses the thousand-year-old inheritance of China in it, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone."

"Song Yin? In later generations, there are people who talk about dollars, and this Song Yin also means it. I was a little surprised, and secretly praised myself, it is not difficult to call it a big Song Dragon coin, and the abbreviation of this Song Silver is very interesting. The Great Song Dynasty used silver as the first circulating currency, and it was called Song silver, which also has a lot of meaning.

Jia Rudao agreed: "This is very good, the old minister seconded it." ”

I nodded and said, "Since the master also agrees, and I also agree, Ruan Aiqing, the new banknote is called the Great Song Dragon Coin, referred to as Song Yin." ”

Nguyen Deng Binh said: "The minister obeys the order." ”

"The matter of Yinzhuang is discussed here today, Ruan Aiqing, Yinzhuang is temporarily under the rule of the Ministry of Households, and all systems must be approved by me personally, and the rest will be finalized later."

"Yes, the minister will retire first."

Fan Wenhuan, the secretary of the Ministry of War, saw that the matter of Yinzhuang had come to an end, and went out to play: "Your Majesty, I received an urgent report of 800 miles in central Sichuan last night, and Zhang Shun, the head of the Mabu Army on Chengdu Road, died in the king's affairs. ”

I thought about it for a moment, and then I realized that this was an opportunity. I sighed and said, "Manager Zhang Shun is also a veteran of my dynasty, but it's a pity. Fan Aiqing, edict, special gift of official five turns, his son and eight official graces. ”

"Obey." Fan Wenhuan said, "Your Majesty, who will take it?" ”

"Fan Aiqing, is there a candidate in the military department?"

"Your Majesty, there was a war just a few years ago in Chengdu Fulu, and a person with both talent and virtue is needed to sit in charge, and there is no suitable personnel in the military department for a while."

In 1259, Chengdu Fulu had a great war with the Mongols, and many places in western Sichuan had fallen. Chengdu Prefecture, like Yangzhou and Xiangfan, became the three closest regions to Mongolia, and few people were willing to go to the post, especially the imperial court officials in the capital.

For Sichuan, I already have three candidates in mind.

Zan Wanshou served as a pacification envoy in Sichuan after the loss of Xiangyang, leading the army and people in Shuzhong to fight against the Mongols, so that the imperial court had no worries for a while, and Shu was also safe.

The other person is Zhang Jue, known as the "Sichuan Lord", who served as the deputy envoy of Sichuan, guarded Yucheng, and controlled the gateway to Sichuan for several years. Zhang Jue sat in the Diaoyu City (belonging to Yucheng) for a long time, stopped and crushed the Mongol invasion, and defended half of the Southern Song Dynasty. In the struggle to resist the Mongols and defend the country, he relied on the broad masses of the army and the people to resolutely resist the Mongol soldiers and oppose compromise and surrender.

The third is Peng Daya, the former prefect of Yucheng, who was unknown in later generations, and can be called the main hero of Yucheng Mansion in the late Song Dynasty who was able to hold on for decades.

In the early years, although Peng Daya, as the prefect, knew that the geographical location of Yucheng City was easy to defend and difficult to attack, the mud wall was its Achilles' heel, and the key to success or failure was this. When he went to the north, he had seen the Mongolian iron cavalry galloping, he was very worried that the next target of the Mongolian army was the Southern Song Dynasty, so after returning to Yucheng, he immediately ordered to strengthen Yucheng City when he took advantage of the time of the war, the ancient city walls were made of mud and were very fragile and vulnerable, and he ordered the whole city to build bricks and stone walls, and expanded the scale of the entire Yucheng City, extending to the Tongyuan Gate, Linjiangmen area, which formed the "ancient Yucheng City" we see today.

At that time, the people and officials were very incomprehensible, and they were very dissatisfied with Peng Daya's construction in this difficult economic period, and they went to the yamen to scold him loudly, but Peng Daya said: "Don't look at money as money, don't look at people as people, there is no reason to build", which means that at this time, the emperor and the ministers in the palace do not regard money as money, and people as people. still led his subordinates to build the city wall day and night.

It is precisely because of Peng Daya's "insistence" at this critical moment that the Mongol army led 100,000 iron cavalry failed to capture the city, and made the Mongol army suffer defeats in Yucheng City many times when it went south, so that the crumbling Southern Song Dynasty regime could continue for more than 40 years. At this time, the people and officials realized it and showed their merits. It's a pity that when Peng Daya built the city and fought a fierce battle with the enemy, he was jealous and hated because of his high merits, and was repeatedly slandered by the annihilated people.

However, after I ascended the throne, I saw this dismissal order from the study of the first emperor, and I had asked people to bring a letter to Peng Daya, asking him to cultivate his family name in Ganzhou, and wait for further instructions from me.

These three people were all loyal and brave people in the late Southern Song Dynasty, and none of them were the party of Jia Nidao. In this way, I can control the two of the three major town border armies.

Yucheng Zhang Jue, Peng Daya, I feel that I can rest assured, for Chengdu, because the current Zan Wanshou qualifications are still lacking, it is not enough to become the boss of Sichuan, and Zhang Jue and others are in Yucheng Mansion all the year round, belonging to Kuizhou Road, and they are not familiar with Chengdu Fu Road. If you rashly order Zan Wanshou to unify Chengdu Mansion, will it backfire? I don't have any bottom in my heart.

I looked at the courtiers and said, "Everyone, who is suitable?" ”

For a long time, no one among the generals spoke up, and most of these people were from Jia Nidao and the party, and secondly, they didn't want to go to dangerous places, so they simply kept silent.

"Your Majesty, if you don't think the old minister is old, the old minister is willing to go."

"Gundam?"
