No wonder Liu Ziguang turned things around at the critical moment, he only used a small means, you must know that all the official telegraph communications in the Ming Dynasty were in the hands of technicians from the South Factory, and it was reasonable to think that the radio was not wired, and it was reasonable to wear headphones to copy the code in the atmosphere.

In the end, the financial turmoil suffered by a group of high-ranking officials of the imperial court led by Huang Xiaotian and the large landlords who were vassals of them. The big businessman, Huang Xiaotian alone, lost more than one million taels of silver, and the others lost a total of six million taels, of course, this money included the money of the common people they earned on the Western Regions Fund by using inside information in the early stage, but anyway, this time everyone was cheated by Huang Xiaotian, and even the business of the major restaurants and brothels in the capital was much worse for a while, because those high-ranking officials and dignitaries in the past had no money, on the contrary, the business of antique shops and pawnshops was much better, and a large number of rare and exotic treasures were circulated on the market, and the price was not expensive, basically at the level of selling for money。

The current situation is that everyone mentions Huang Xiaotian, they hate it so much, all day long, there are people holding IOUs around the door of the Huang Mansion waiting to collect debts, poor Huang Xiaotian is so frightened that he doesn't even dare to go home, squatting in the household yamen every day to work, even when he is in the court, he has no face to see people, holding a wat board, and he doesn't dare to talk about it anymore.

Huang Xiaotian knew that he was still sitting in the main hall of the household department, otherwise his home would have been demolished a long time ago, and it was all up to Zhenwuhou to save the position of Shangshu by not remembering the old evils.

The reason is very simple, the resources in the hands of Zhenwuhou are far greater than the resources of the Donglin Party, the exchange is in his hands, Rishengchang is his ally, and the major military enterprises are also under his name, only by sincerely cooperating with Liu Ziguang can he be reborn, make money and repay debts.

So the household department Xun introduced some policies, first fully restored the cooperative relationship with Rishengchang, all the taxes and money of the local government were stored in the ticket number, and even the procedures for remitting to the central finance were handed over to Rishengchang's charge d'affaires, and then the issue of the candidate for the securities regulatory yamen and the secretary, Huang Xiaotian arranged a little-known household member Wailang to serve as a little-known household member in accordance with Liu Ziguang's instructions, in fact, this person is the mouthpiece of Hu Da's shopkeeper, and the securities regulatory yamen will be equivalent to Rishengchang's subordinate units, such as the price limit system T+1. The establishment of the system, the imperial court leveling fund, etc., were introduced quickly, and the stock market also stabilized and entered a state of slow bulls.

Then there is the problem of cooperation with the enterprises under Liu Ziguang's name, most of these factories in Liu Ziguang's hands are maintained by orders from the imperial court, such as Liguo Iron Works and Jiangnan Shipyard, which are all military enterprises, that is, Meilin Canning Factory. Nanyang Brothers Tobacco Company also has a large number of military orders, the nuclear price of these orders is subject to the consent of the household department, since Huang Xiaotian has been reversed, then the price is naturally not a problem, no longer desperately pressed down, not to mention to be raised up, of course, this extra money should be divided into a part to Huang Daren, after all, people owe a lot of debt, and they should eat some kickbacks.

Liu Ziguang was generous and kind-hearted, seeing that Huang Xiaotian was blocked by the creditor, he took the initiative to take out one million taels to help him tide over the difficulties, first returned the money of the most difficult creditors, of course, this money also has to write an IOU, but Hou Ye is particular about people, and he will definitely not come to collect debts, in fact, this is just to spit out a little of Huang Xiaotian's lost money and return it to him, but also to take advantage of the dusk of Huang Daren's moved post to go to Hou Ye's house to discuss the next step of making money.

Huang Xiaotian's idea is to restart the plan of the 30 million war fund, this plan was forced to suspend when the stock market crashed, and now the stock market is rebounding, and it is naturally back on the agenda, but there is no decent good news in the west, this fund still does not go out, and now the people are good at learning, and no longer believe in the rumors of the government, what is the great victory of the Western Army, 500 levels, 3,000 miles of land expansion, no dividends, everything is fake.

Huang Xiaotian said that the Western Army may be difficult to win the battle under the leadership of Yuan Inspector, and the only way now is to want the Hou Ye to go out of the mountain to take over the war in the Western Xinjiang, so that the Western Xia Fund can really defeat it.

Liu Ziguang wondered, tens of millions of military expenses were spent, thousands of cannons, firearms, armor, knives, guns, bows and crossbows, as well as rice grain from the south of the Yangtze River were served and transported, even if they were equipped with 100,000 pigs, they could win, not to mention that Inspector Yuan was not a mediocre talent, he governed the army rigorously, his subordinates were full of talents, there were hundreds of generals, and 100,000 soldiers, how could you, a household official, conclude that Inspector Yuan could not win the battle?

Huang Xiaotian sighed and said, Master Hou, you don't know, yes, the military budget has been used up to more than 10 million, but how much of this money really fell on the Western Army? When the fund was issued, officials at all levels made 3 million dollars, and then they bought military funds to transport grain and grass, and they didn't know how much it was spent, and the money that was really used by the Western Army to raise people in the local area, build the city wall, and give the soldiers was less than 3 million.

Huang Xiaotian's words are the truth, this is the reality of the Ming Dynasty, ** serious layer by layer, the army is popular, eat empty quotas, drink the blood of soldiers, the main battles in the past two years are fought by themselves, so there are no drawbacks, this time Marshal Yuan commanded a miscellaneous army adapted from various warlords, remnants and bandits from all walks of life in the Central Plains, these drawbacks will inevitably be doubled and magnified, and it is reasonable to defeat the war.

"Then how can Lord Huang conclude that Ben Shuai will definitely be able to win when he comes out?" Liu Ziguang asked.

"Hou Ye is different from them, Hou Ye has the strongest army in the world, the Red Shirt Army has few defeats since its formation, strict military discipline, fierce combat power, and a military logistics system of its own, plus Hou Ye's prestige is like the sky, everywhere he goes, he is invincible, once the news of the main Hou Ye in command comes out, let alone 30 million funds, even 50 million will have to go out, this military funding is not under the dispatch of Hou Ye, when the time comes, Hou Ye just don't forget to go down."

It turned out that Huang Xiaotian said that it was still for money, Liu Ziguang took command and went on the expedition, which meant that the fund was sold hot, and everyone's money bags were puffed up again, and the only way to solve Huang Xiaotian's huge debts was this one smooth way, Liu Ziguang sighed and said: "If Ben Hou is in command, the battle situation may change, but whether he can be in command or not is not someone who said that it can be counted, and the cabinet and the emperor must agree. ”

The exclusive text version of this work may not be reproduced without consent, and excerpts for more of the latest and fastest chapters please visit! Huang Xiaotian said: "It may not be that the Western Army has suffered a series of defeats, the cabinet can no longer bear the Tong Pass, the commander of the Western Xia Army will drive straight into the Central Plains, then the Ming Dynasty will be abolished, and the attitude of the old Qian Pavilion has been loosened, and he will go back to the next official to say that the matter of Hou Ye taking command will definitely be implemented." ”

As soon as the cannon sounded, what was wrong with the two big people making money together, Liu Ziguang immediately laughed and said: "In this way, there is Lord Lao Huang." ”

In fact, Liu Ziguang also knew in his heart that this mess would have to be cleaned up by himself after all, regardless of whether it was the emperor or the Donglin Party, it was okay to play with power, and when it came to fighting, they would rest on their own.

Zhenwuhou Mansion held a family meeting to discuss the matter of taking command of the Western Expedition, Liu Ziguang's daughters-in-law are not fuel-efficient lamps, unanimously raised their hands to pass, Peng Jingrong considered the reopening of the war, and the orders for the iron factory naturally surged, Liu Xiaomei and Peng Jingwei thought in their two little heads, but no one cared about them anymore, and they were crazy as much as they wanted, as for Zhao Wen, who had just given birth to the crown prince of the Song Dynasty and whose child was less than three months old, was even more in favor of the emperor's consciousness with both hands, and said that my family is a big hero who stands up to the sky, who is qualified to be in charge if he is not in charge?

The only thing that doesn't say anything is the little daughter-in-law Li Xiangjun, who has been confiscating the house, this girl is also eighteen years old this year, according to what Liu Ziguang promised before, she should also be given a name, looking at this situation, everyone knows that the little girl's heart moved, Peng Jingwei pointed a finger on her forehead: "I'm not in a hurry, why are you in a hurry, sooner or later, you are a brother-in-law, are you still in a hurry these months?" ”

Looking at these big girls who are like flowers, Liu Ziguang also feels a little guilty, even the youngest Li Xiangjun is eighteen years old, if she wants to put it aside in someone else's house, she has already married and had children, but she has lived in the Hou Ye's Mansion for three years, and she doesn't even have a name, and Peng Jingwei is thinking about the scenery, marrying her brother-in-law, she has not been able to do what she wants, of course, the most sorry thing is that Liu Xiaomei has even gone to bed, and there is no explanation, but what these people don't care about the most is Liu Xiaomei, no one knows her real age and origin, only knows that her current psychological age is only seven years old, and she can't speak very well。

"The master should also accept a few of them into the room, look at the others, when you reach your age, they are full of children, but our family has only one son and one daughter, and the daughter is still raising a daughter outside the house, or a concubine with a foreign surname, and he can't give birth to a son and a half daughter, so he can only count on these sisters, so when the Western Expedition is over, we will do things one by one, sir, what do you think?" Peng Jingrong is the wife of the main house, and this is the long-term view of the problem, which resonated with Liu Ziguang: "It's okay, when I return from victory, I will marry all of you." ”

After the family's opinions were unified, Liu Ziguang went to Wuyi Lane to discuss with Zeng Cheng, saying that it was to discuss, in fact, it was to inform Zeng Cheng that he was a sensible wife, not to mention being loyal to the country, that is, Xianggong went out to run a single gang to do business, and she would not hold back, but thinking of the vast Gobi in the Western Regions, she couldn't help crying, grabbed Liu Ziguang's sleeve and said: "Xianggong, you have to come back earlier, you can't wait for you to come, you don't know your father." ”

Liu Ziguang said: "It won't take so long, a little barbarian will just be out for the husband, and they will be wiped out in half a year." ”

Three days later, sure enough, an edict came to the Zhenwu Marquis Mansion, ordering him to enter the palace to accept the new arrangements of the imperial court, Liu Ziguang had already prepared to change his robe and enter the palace, and waited until the evening to come back with a straight face, Peng Jingrong, Zhao Wen and others immediately surrounded him and asked, "Why did the handsome seal fall next to it?" ”

Liu Ziguang said: "There is a handsome seal, but it is just a deputy marshal." ”
