From Qin Mu's face, there was no change in it, the same as before.

However, this is also normal, being an official can do his level, whether it is a politician or a politician, they have all grown to the highest level, and they have reached the level of pampering and humiliation in terms of mentality, and it is simply wishful thinking to see what is mysterious from his face. Emperor Xuanyuan said in his heart.

After Qin Mu respectfully saluted and sat on the side, he took the initiative to mention what he thought just now: "Qin Xiang, this part of government affairs is really not my forte, let's divide labor as before, all specific things, no matter how big or small, are handled by you, and I can occasionally take a direction." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty. Qin Mu thought for a while and said, "Then I'll only report the most important things to Your Majesty during this time." ”

"Well, you say. Emperor Xuanyuan said, he has been staying in the Holy Hall some time ago, and he has been absent from two great court meetings, so he really needs to know about it if he has the opportunity.

"Your Majesty, there are many events in the world now, and the political facts are too heavy. I want to decentralize more government affairs within the empire to the states and provinces. In principle, everything that can be solved by the local government in the future will be solved by the local government, and the imperial court only needs to ask for supervision, and the main energy and direction of the imperial court should be placed on handling the affairs of the kingdom under heaven. ”

"Okay, that's it. Emperor Xuanyuan did not have any objections and directly agreed.

In the pattern designed by the Holy Ancestor of Taizong, the affairs of the world are "state affairs", and the internal affairs of the empire are only "family affairs".

But now, with the troubles of the nations and the existence of other worlds, it is too inappropriate to continue the previous strategy at this time, and it also seems narrow-minded and petty.

As for whether delegating more real power to the local government would create local forces in the nature of "feudal towns", neither Emperor Xuanyuan nor Qin Xiang had such worries.

Qin Mu said again: "In addition, there are too few people in the Secretary Pavilion, I want to expand the scale." ”

The secretary's cabinet is the prime minister's private staff group, think tank, advisory group, all of which are appointed by the prime minister himself, it can be said that it is the prime minister's most confidant body, in terms of official character, the highest official position is also two five grades, and the others are all idle officials below the seventh grade, which is a typical humble and weighty, and many resolutions that affect the empire are born here.

Originally, he alone had the final say on how many people he recruited, but in order to avoid suspicion, it was better to say hello to His Majesty before such a big move.

Since this was mentioned, Emperor Xuanyuan couldn't help but say a few more words, and said:

"According to the current situation, and even in the foreseeable future, the affairs that the empire needs to deal with will only increase, and will not stop, so the number of people in the Secretariat's cabinet is far from enough to cope with such a situation.

My suggestion is that since we want to change it, we might as well take this opportunity to make a big change, just like the imperial court has six departments, try to standardize the functions clearly, and each one is responsible for one piece, and don't grasp everything at once.

In addition, the official quality of the secretary's cabinet is too low, and the official position is too few, and these should be corrected in this adjustment. ”

Qin Mu finally couldn't help but show a look of surprise, in this way, the secretary's pavilion is almost a small court, and this small court only serves the prime minister.

He added: "There is another matter, that is, His Majesty's initiative to set up Xuanyuan Bank before, because there are too many countries that oppose it, it has completely collapsed. ”

When Emperor Xuanyuan heard this, his face sank.

He didn't ask about the specific negotiations between the imperial court and the kingdom of Tianxia, but there were many directions that he pointed out to Qin Mu in advance that the resolutions announced to the whole world through the information highway were only a small part.

There are more that have not been announced, some have talked about success, some have not talked about success, and he has not expressed any dissatisfaction with this, not talking about success now means that the time is not ripe, and there will be a chance to talk about it later.

The establishment of Xuanyuan Bank, the issuance of a unified currency in all countries of the Tian Yuan world, the internal personnel structure of this organization, with reference to Xuanyuan Yi and the Social Management Committee, is jointly managed by all participating countries according to the number of "original shares" sent by different directors.

Behind this seeming fairness, the empire and its four brothers will definitely hold on to the dominant position.

It is easy to understand that there are too many countries that oppose it, and this is really giving the lifeblood of a country to the empire.

In the past, the talk collapsed, and when the conditions are more mature, there will always be a successful day, but now, he can't wait.

If Prime Minister Qin didn't mention it, he would have to take the initiative to mention it to him.

He said to Qin Mu: "In this way, kick out those who disagree, and only let those who are willing to participate, there is no upper limit on the original shares, and there are no other requirements for large and small countries, and the total amount of participation in each country will be used as the total principal, and whoever should have as many shares as many shares." Once this is done, we will immediately implement a unified currency reform in all participating countries! We must act quickly, and I hope to put in place the framework of this matter within half a month. ”

Qin Mu was taken aback and said, "Your Majesty, isn't this too radical and will cause disgust in many countries?

Emperor Xuanyuan sighed and said, "Qin Xiang, I also have to do this. In the past, there was indeed a selfish desire to be a bank for the empire, but now, I really think for all the people of Xuanyuan!"

He explained to Qin Mu:

"The Empire's gold, silver, jade, and other precious minerals are the responsibility of the Inner Government, and the minting of coins is also the responsibility of the Inner Government.

This morning, Qian Yiqian, the head of the Inner Government, reported to me that all underground mineral deposits have undergone varying degrees of mutation, and the scale of the gold and silver mines that are being mined now has increased several times out of thin air, and even a gold mine that is on the verge of exhaustion has given birth to a giant gold vein!

And according to his speculation, it is just the tip of the iceberg of the real situation, we have always adopted a 'moderate stop' mining strategy, never dry up and fish, so there are many precious mineral deposits that are not mined, but let them be sealed under the earth, what about these mineral deposits?

Our empire is only a corner of the Tian Yuan world, so what about the whole world? I suspect that the gold and silver mines, in that wild world, are likely to be like copper and iron!"

When Qin Mu heard this, he was also shocked, he naturally did not think that this was the Tianyuan World that had made a fortune and had endless mountains of gold and silver, but that he would be unlucky, if he didn't deal with it properly, the people of Xuanyuan would have to be unlucky.

How much gold and silver are worth in themselves? It is just that people give them a huge value, and once the gold and silver are too much to be used, the entire social system of the Yuan world will collapse.

"We can't force the world to see that gold and silver are not mined, so it is only a matter of time before it flows to the market on a large scale. ”

Emperor Xuanyuan said: "My idea is to create a monetary system that has nothing to do with gold and silver before these massive amounts of gold and silver pour into the market. In order to defend against this impact, there is no time to hesitate now, and we must act as soon as possible. ”
