Jia Liu felt that He Shen's current relationship with him belonged to the kind of official business, that is, whatever he asked He Shen to do, He Shen would do it.

But outside of business, the two are like strangers, and the intimacy of the past is hard to find.

There's no way around it.

Who asked Jia Liu to pull down Renshen's good Bole.

However, Jia Liu did not treat He Shen badly, at least the gold content of his current position is definitely in place.

You must know that although He Shen is only the left waiter of the household department, the head of the household department is now in a semi-retired state, so the actual work of the household department is presided over by He Shen, and he belongs to the waiter who enjoys the treatment of the ministry.

That is to say, the work of the household department is taken care of by He Shen from top to bottom, and everyone knows that He Shen is Qianlong's favorite minister and fortunate minister, and as a result, he also held an important position in the Restoration Dynasty and presided over the overall financial situation, which shows how much Jia Liu values He Shen.

Moreover, he did not kill Qianlong, who had the grace of promotion to He Shen (not excluding some kind of special relationship).

Therefore, in my heart, I hope that He Shen can reconcile with his six emperors and contribute to the take-off of the Qing Dynasty together.

If He Shen still has resentment and hostility towards himself in his heart, Jia Liu doesn't care, as long as He Shen can do his job well.

As for whether He Shen will become a famous corrupt official in history, Jia Liu thinks that it will be five or five open.

It may or may not.

The reason may be that the Restoration will surely open an unprecedented door for Heshen, and it is difficult to say whether it can stick to its original intention in the face of that unprecedented temptation of gold and silver.

The reason why it may not be is that the current Heshen has undergone a fundamental qualitative change in the same time and space as the Heshen.

It is not excluded that He Shen will be transformed into He Qingtian after this blow.

At present, this is very likely, because according to the internal affairs committee's private investigation, He Shilang belongs to the kind of honest and honest official type, which will not be able to copy a thousand taels of silver after copying his family.

Of course, Jia Liu is willing to see He Shen develop in the direction of the Qing Dynasty, and he is even more happy to see He Shen complete the mission that he did not complete in the Qianlong Dynasty, that is, to lead the Qing military and civilians to truly go international.

Make a fortune.

He was going to let He Shen work in the household department for a few years, and then he would be appointed as the former minister of the imperial court, and organize a mission to the West to establish diplomatic relations with various countries, and see if he could make an 18th-century axis or alliance.

The situation is developing smoothly, and it is not impossible to start a world war a hundred years earlier.

In addition to supervising the transportation of the army's grain and grass outside the customs this time, He Shen also had three things to report to the six emperors in person.

The first is of course the identification of the treasures in the palace, which can be said to be Jia Liu's private matter.

Because the hidden treasures in the palace were completely received by him from the hands of the four devils, and belonged to the emperor's private property, although he reached an underwriting contract with the cabinet and allowed the bureaucracy to collect the wool of the six emperors, this matter was still a private matter in essence.

“... At present, the Chentong expert group has completed two batches involving more than 3,600 pieces of palace treasure identification work, of which 2,950 can be sold, and the rest cannot be sold. It was decreed that next year, Changchun Garden will be turned into a National Museum, and anyone from the Qing Dynasty can enter the museum with a ticket. ”

"By ticket?"

Jia Liu poured a bowl of tea for He Shen, motioned for him to sit down and talk, and then asked He Shen how much he planned to sell for a ticket.

】

After He Shen sat down, he said that he planned to set the ticket price at 10 Wen, and the ticket revenue collected would be used for the operation of the National Museum, and the excess part would be handed over to the Shuntian Treasury for the construction of the capital project of the Beijing Division, such as the renovation plan of the Beijing Normal University proposed by the relevant departments summoned by His Majesty the Emperor before leaving Beijing.

The price of Shiwen is not high.

Jia Liu went to several vegetable markets when he was investigating prices in Beijing before, and a pound of fish sold for 20 Wen, a pound of pork sold for 35 Wen, and a pound of vegetables generally did not exceed 10 Wen.

Therefore, the price of Shiwen's visit is extremely cheap, which is in line with the original intention of his six emperors to establish the National Museum so that everyone in the Qing Dynasty can appreciate the national treasure.

nodded in approval at the moment, but asked He Shen to halve the ticket price to five Wen, and officers and soldiers, students, people of merit, people with disabilities, and the elderly over 60 years old can visit for free.

"The Qing Dynasty is not short of this money, and I don't mean to make money from the people, you go back and come up with a specific charter with the Ministry of Industry, and the Ministry of Internal Affairs will be responsible for the insufficient expenses of the National Museum in the future."

It is the meaning of the emperor to pay welfare to the people out of his own pocket, in addition to the National Museum, the same is true for the zoo located in the Old Summer Palace.

He Shen owes himself, meaning that he will do as the emperor instructs.

"Tell me about Tobe Bank."

Jia Liu took out the excerpt on the establishment of the Hubu Bank, which He Shen submitted to the cabinet for discussion last month.

The concept of the bank was actually instilled by Jia Liu to He Shen, and the Bank of Sichuan, founded by Elder Li when he was the governor of Sichuan, is now basically mature, but it is currently in a state of loss.

The reason is that Lao Li lent most of the people's deposits absorbed by the Bank of Sichuan to the Six Emperors to develop industry, and now that industry and commerce have just set sail, the Bank of Sichuan will have to get high returns at least next year.

Giving high interest rates to attract ordinary people and merchants to save money was actually a foolish thing to do in an era when transportation was inconvenient.

Because the silver taels and copper coins are too heavy and too large in size, they must have all kinds of inconveniences in storage and transportation, and they also involve a large number of guards.

As a result, it is necessary to employ a large number of people to set up a bank, which incurs a huge expense.

The emergence of the dart game is actually a subcontracting by the money bank in order to reduce expenses.

At present, the major banks on the market do not give interest, and they all charge deposit fees, non-local acceptance fees, and loan business.

Therefore, it is unprecedented for the Bank of Sichuan to attract people with high interest rates, and at that time, some money banks said that this bank was simply stupid and had a lot of money, and if it were not for the government and all kinds of soft and hard coercion, the ghost would have deposited the money in the bank.

As a result of the high interest rate, the Bank of Sichuan has to pay extremely high interest to depositors every year, and unless it wants to make enough money to run away, it can even lose its bottoms.

At the beginning, Jia Liu thought of this stupid method because he had no money, and now it is definitely impossible to continue this method of attracting funds at high interest rates, and it is necessary to carry out banking business in accordance with the characteristics of the times.

That is, to go back to the old ways.

Unless the railway is an efficient means of transport.

He Shen is more receptive to the concept of banking, he investigated the operation of major money banks in Beijing, combined with the current booming trade and trade, felt that it is necessary to open a bank with a unified national nature.

The bank is then responsible for the flow of funds for domestic and foreign trade, so that the income from deposit and withdrawal procedures can be obtained in addition to the normal tax revenue.

When the conditions are ripe, it is even possible to issue banknotes similar to money stamps to Western merchants.

As long as the Qing Dynasty is not dead, China has goods needed by Western countries, and there is no need to worry about the paper money issued by the Hubu Bank being boycotted by international trade.

In the excerpt, He Shen proposed that the household reserve was 10 million taels of Kuping silver, divided into 100,000 shares, half of which was subscribed by the household department, and the rest was purchased by officials and ordinary people, but there was a premise that it could not be resold to foreigners.

"After the establishment of the Hubu Bank, in addition to the business of depositing and withdrawing loans, buying and selling gold and silver, exchanging money and bills, and collecting and depositing property on behalf of others, it also had the privileges of receiving silver and copper coinage and acting as an agent for the treasury, and was also responsible for the taxation of the customs yamen and the deposit and exchange of funds of Western merchants. In addition to setting up a head office in Beijing, it also handles branches in Tianjin, Baoding, Jinan, Kaifeng, Xiangyang, Jiangning, Suzhou, Chengdu and other places..."

He Shen said that the Bank of Sichuan, which was originally run in Sichuan, should be merged into the Household Bank and renamed the Sichuan Branch of the Household Bank.

As for the business handled by the Bank of Sichuan before, due to its small scale, the account department can settle it at one time. However, after that, the business must be supervised and guided by the Ministry of Households, and Sichuan Province can no longer be responsible.

The general idea is correct, that is, there are some details that are not perfect, and the result of the cabinet discussion is that it can be opened, but it will have to wait for next year.

"I have read it carefully, and I completely agree with your idea, but I mean to change the name of the Tobu Bank to the Central Bank, and to take advantage of the east wind of trade to open our Central Bank overseas, and become the first choice for merchants, officials, and even their nobles to save money.

Of course, our central bank is absolutely confidential about depositors' funds and storage information. Even the king's deposit could not be disclosed to their people. ”

Jia Liu put forward the concept of setting up a world bank, and emphasized that the vote is not recognized.

If the central bank develops smoothly in twenty years, the six emperors will start the task of exporting the Restoration, plunging the Western countries into turmoil and paralyzing their financial systems.

At that time, a stable and strong central bank will be the only hedge option for wealthy people in Western countries.

One more group of people going to the guillotine means that he is the sixth emperor earns an extra piece of money for the country.

It's a very interesting idea.

At present, there are many banks in Western countries, but the concept of a world bank has not yet appeared, or is in its embryonic form.

Therefore, he was willing to serve the wealthy people of Western countries.

In this way, the image of active external expansion, strong and honest first must be established as soon as possible.

He Shen pondered for a moment, did not object to this proposal of the Six Emperors, but took out a box and took out several of the coins minted by the Ministry of Industry.

Silver and copper coins.

Each coin has a different denomination, with one, two, five, and ten silver coins.

Copper coins come in two types: one and five.

On the reverse side of the coin is an eagle with wings spread out in its mouth and a long snake, and on the obverse is the value of the coin and flowers.

The reverse side of the coin is a portrait of a person, and the obverse is the value of the coin.

This person's avatar is, of course, the handsome portrait of the six emperors of the Restoration Hundred Families.

Whether it is a silver coin or a copper coin, the fineness is full, the workmanship is also extremely fine, and the edge of the silver coin is still jagged, which is very atmospheric to look at.

Jia Liu picked up a five-coin worth silver and blew it, put it to his ear and listened, and then turned it around on the table, accompanied by the sound of the silver coin slowly falling, the sound was pure and tactful, and the feeling was calm, it was the feeling of natural sound.

These are naturally the big silver dollars that the Six Emperors want to promote to the whole country and the world.

In the previous life, the more than one billion silver dollars issued by Western countries circulated in China, basically occupying the Chinese coin market, resulting in the hard-earned money of Chinese being harvested by Western countries without blood.

At present, of course, his six emperors want to export in reverse, so that his avatar will circulate all over the world, and become the greatest person in the hearts of the people in the world, and at the same time the most lovable person!

Then, Jia Liu attaches great importance to the quality problem.

Silver dollars with their own portraits are not allowed to be used by the people for a few years before they are smoothed and polished.

He Shen did it seriously, and after the talks, he still bowed to the six emperors and withdrew.

When he was about to return to Beijing, he unexpectedly saw a familiar old man squatting there in the corner not far away.

In front of the old man were several large buckets, and in addition to the cold river water, there were piles of bowls.

"Your Majesty!"

The same familiar voice shocked Qianlong, who was washing dishes, and then turned his head to see the handsome face he particularly liked.

After a few breaths, Qianlong stood up from the small stool trembling slightly, wiped his hands red from the cold on his waist first, and wanted to reach out to shake hands with He Shen, but after his hand was stretched out, he suddenly withdrew it.

Then he said with a firm face: "My lord, the emperor is in the past, I am a person who has committed capital crimes against the country and the people, and now I am fortunate to be given the work of serving the people by His Majesty, which is the greatest honor in my life, you must not call me by the past name, I can't stand it..."
