Chapter 459: Daming Bank
After returning to the mansion, the three ladies began to complain about this Qin King Zhu Zhang.
Although this person has never had any contact, he is domineering as soon as he meets, as if someone owes him eight hundred hangings.
And when he came up, he asked for drawings, and he didn't even have any emotional foreshadowing, he was just a brainless person.
Lu Ning shook his head with a smile, and then told several ladies.
"Okay, His Royal Highness King Qin is now in charge of the Domestic Products Division, and it is not for personal gain, he may also have other ideas, let's not talk too much."
Seeing him say this, the three ladies also closed their mouths very interestingly, so they talked about the short things in the family.
Lu Ning didn't let them talk about it, and he also had his own reasons, after all, now the brocade guards of the imperial court are in anyone's mansion, and they are only afraid that they are indispensable in their own mansion.
Trouble comes from the mouth, and a few words less may cause less trouble.
Although he is now His Majesty's righteous son, the King of Qin is his own son and second son, this kind of identity is inherently precious, and no one can compare with it.
However, after more than 20 days, Zhu Fan came to Lu Ning's house again very embarrassed.
This time, he didn't have the domineering attitude of last time, but his tone was much more relaxed.
As soon as they met, he put down a food box, and then said to Lu Ning with a smile.
"Brother, here is a pair of bear paws, I specially instructed the kitchen to stew for you, this thing is definitely a big supplement, don't worry, as long as you are willing to ask for it, I can supply it to you at any time."
When Lu Ning saw Zhu Fan like this, he had some doubts in his heart.
Last time, it was like someone owed him money, and this time he was going to give gifts as soon as he entered the door, behaving like a grandson.
Anyway, even if Lu Ning was mentally prepared, the contrast between before and after seemed to be a little bigger.
He still looked at King Qin very politely and said with a smile.
"Your Highness, I have given you the most high-end drawings, is there anything you can't do, just say anything."
Zhu Fan was a little embarrassed at this time, and said to Lu Ning in a low voice.
"Brother, no matter what, you are also the righteous son of your father, and you are the one who was included in the jade, and the two of us are brothers."
Lu Ning was a little puzzled, this sentence was a bit clueless, why did he suddenly talk about it again.
So, he asked with a smile.
"Could it be that His Highness has encountered some trouble in the process of creating the drawings, why don't you tell me about it. Maybe I can give you an idea. ”
At this time, King Qin was like meeting a relative, and told Lu Ning directly.
"I took the drawings back here, and then found some people from the construction department to cast, but these techniques were so difficult that my people couldn't make them at all, and they wasted a lot of materials and lost more than 20,000 taels of silver."
Hearing this, Lu Ning couldn't hold back his laughter.
But the unlucky guy in front of him hadn't finished speaking, and continued to add a sentence.
"I already told my father last time that I wanted to build a rocket, but not only did I not build it, but I wasted more than 20,000 taels of silver, and my father directly hit me with thirty canes and blasted me out."
After hearing this, Lu Ning naturally felt very speechless, so he said with a smile.
"Your Highness, you might as well go back first, I will think about some things carefully, and I will give you an answer later, please rest assured that I will definitely let you get this face back."
Zhu Fan smiled and nodded, and then said to Lu Ning.
"I'll pin all my hopes on you, no matter what, we're brothers, I'm sure you won't cheat me."
Lu Ning flickered and got Zhu Fan back to his family training, and then he began to think about what he should do next.
At this time, Zhu Yuanzhang recruited him into the palace again.
Seeing his father's anxious appearance, Lu Ning was a little speechless and hurriedly asked.
"Father, what is there that is worth your panic, why is it in such a hurry, just tell your sons and daughters if you have something."
Zhu Yuanzhang directly threw out a notebook, and then said.
"You take a closer look at us, what are these things, these officials below are all goods who are not afraid of death, how can we be trusted!"
Lu Ning turned out to be a twist and turn, and after a closer look, he understood the general situation.
It turned out that many people began to resell gold, silver and bronze ware, and also devalued the Daming treasure banknotes.
In other words, there is no way for the household department to carry out unified management.
Even the currency is in a state of chaos, and if this continues, those profiteers and officials will naturally be able to eat a lot of brains, but the Ming Dynasty will be eaten by them.
The matter has developed to such a serious situation, it is no wonder that Zhu Yuanzhang is not in a hurry.
However, he believes that Lu Ning will definitely be able to come up with a corresponding way to solve the problem at the critical moment, which is his consistent cognition.
Lu Ning thought about it carefully, and then told Zhu Yuanzhang.
"Father, please rest assured, this matter is actually not difficult, if the household department wants to effectively control the management of the currency, the minister suggests opening a Daming Bank."
Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head, he didn't understand what the so-called bank was, so he asked Lu Ning.
Lu Ning told his father.
"The so-called bank is actually a money bank, but its scale and business scope are much larger than the money bank, and it is run by the state, you can set the management yamen of the money bank as the Zhengsanpin yamen under the household department, and send a trustworthy hall official to manage it!"
Zhu Yuanzhang nodded, he now understood.
However, the most trustworthy person is naturally Lu Ning, but Zi'an has a lot of errands on him now.
Even if he wanted to be appointed, he was incompetent, so Zhu Yuanzhang asked Li Qi to serve as the general manager of Daming Bank.
