Zhu Jin was panting, carrying a stack of account books in his hand.

His eyes were full of ecstasy, and when he arrived in front of Zhang Anshi, he said respectfully: "Oh, the villain and the account room have been sleepless, and they have finally settled most of the accounts." I really didn't expect that these money banks ...... It's a fat runny oil. ”

Zhang Anshi looked at him like a fool and said, "This money village is not fat, what else is fat in the world?" ”

This is also true, in ancient times, ordinary trading profits were not high, the vast majority of people held property is just land, although the monopoly of land can be worry-free, but no matter what, it is not as good as those professional lenders.

What's more, there are many money banks, but they have continued to lend money since the beginning of the Yuan Dynasty, even when Emperor Hongwu was in power, they were dormant, but their wealth was still very considerable.

If it weren't for this time, these banks would have pumped a large amount of gold and silver to support the speculators of tung oil, and there would never have been a shortage of gold and silver.

Zhu Jin said with a smile: "Uncle, you will know when you see it." ”

Zhang Anshi bowed, opened the book, and then looked at it carefully.

The accounts here were dense, and Zhang Anshi himself was dizzy for a while, and finally saw the total amount of assets at the end, and couldn't help but be surprised, and couldn't help but spit out three words in his mouth: "Big dog." ”

Zhu Yong said on the side: "Who is the eldest brother scolding?" ”

Zhang Anshi put away the account book: "Don't ask, if you ask, I'll scold myself!" Okay, you stay here for a while, I have to go into the palace to meet the driver, don't mess around here! ”

As he spoke, he wanted to raise his feet and leave, but suddenly remembered something, and said cautiously: "Remember to keep an eye on this guy Qiu Song." ”

"Oh."

After that, Zhang Anshi slipped away and hurried to the palace.

Zhu Di, who was in the palace at this time, seemed to be thinking about something.

But now, the army is about to be dispatched, and countless military horses have begun to assemble in Nanjing, Yunnan, and Zhenjiang.

This time, Zhu Di seems to have planned to solve the problem of Annan once and for all.

As a result, countless grains and grasses have begun to be continuously transported to Yunnan, Guizhou and other places.

Zhu Di was strategizing in Nanjing, and he was trying his best every day to transfer troops and send generals, after all, for Zhu Di, this battle was only allowed to be won, not defeated.

He urgently needs a big victory to prove himself now, Emperor Taizu Gao can set the Central Plains in the north, and as the most legitimate successor of Emperor Taizu Gao, he can't spend a lot of time destroying Annan.

Let alone...... When it comes to marching formations, Zhu Di is professional.

At this time, in addition to reading a large number of notes every day, he was discussing with the ministers about the transfer of grain and grass.

As for the commanders who are about to go on the expedition, whether it is Zhu Neng, Zhang Fu, who has just been urgently transferred back from the border town, or Fengcheng Hou and other generals, he almost met them one by one, and gave them different warnings according to their personality characteristics.

It's just that this money and food still gives Zhu Di the most headache, and he is not good at it, so he has to hand it over to the prince.

Zhu Gaochi is a chronic person, and he is really in a hurry to do such a thing, but Zhu Di has a lot of complaints about it.

"Your Majesty...... Cheng Enbo asked to see him. ”

"Oh." Zhu Di was bowing his head and writing a letter, which was intended to be sent to Mu Sheng in Yunnan, telling him to transfer money and grain from Yunnan and try his best to supply part of the grain and grass for the army.

In addition, he led a partial division from Yunnan to Annan to respond to the Chinese army.

At this time, Zhu Di was writing the letter seriously, but he frowned: "This guy, is he idle again?" Why don't you get down to business? ”

Yisha said in a low voice: "The slave maid saw that Cheng Enbo had brought a stack of account books. ”

After hearing this, Zhu Di's eyes suddenly widened slightly, and he threw the Zhu pen suddenly, and said, "I still miss him these days!" Quickly, announce him into the temple. ”

After a while, Zhang Anshi saw it, and Zhu Di said with a gentle gaze: "Zhang Qing...... I see that you are thin, what's the matter, are you very tired on weekdays? ”

Zhang Anshi said: "The minister didn't work hard, no, the minister worked very hard......"

Zhu Di smiled: "What is it in your hand?" ”

Zhang Anshi said truthfully: "Your Majesty, these days, the minister has taken over eleven money houses. ”

"Take over?" Zhu Di was surprised: "Are you taking it by force?" ”

"It's not forcible taking, a lot of the minister's silver is stored in these money banks, but who would have thought that these money banks actually went to lend money to those profiteers, and as a result, those profiteers lost a lot of money, and the money bank couldn't hold it together."

"The minister was thinking, although they were unjust, but the minister couldn't watch them close the door, not to mention, many people's silver is stored in their money, if this is crossed, I don't know how many people want to cry without tears, there is no way to ask for help. So the minister was cross-minded and simply ...... had to reluctantly take over the money. ”

Zhu Di listened a little confused, how did he feel, as if he was doing charity?

In the end, Zhu Di said simply: "Just say it, whether you lost or earned, don't talk to me about these vain things." ”

Zhang Anshile said: "Earn, earn, of course it is earned, make a lot of money!" Your Majesty, after the minister took charge of this bank, let people carefully check the accounts, and guess what? Your Majesty, let's see for yourself. ”

"I don't understand." Zhu Di said: "Just say it." ”

Zhang Anshi sighed with emotion: "Your Majesty is really a real person, here, there is a rough number, eleven money houses, the sum of all the assets in the account books, totaling 8.76 million taels of silver, of course, this is calculated in a small amount." ”

Zhu Di: "......"

"Your Majesty......"

Zhu Di was silent, and his eyes were almost out of his sockets.

Zhang Anshi continued to whisper: "Your Majesty, you squeak......"

Zhu Di: "......"

Even Yishiha on the side was a little anxious, and hurriedly stepped forward: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty ......"

Zhu Di's face turned red, but he still didn't speak.

"Your Majesty......" Yisha was startled, and he knelt down busily, and said with a crying voice.

At this time, Zhu Di eased up slightly: "Don't speak, I want to be quiet." ”

Earn big, this time it's really big.

Zhu Di absolutely couldn't imagine that a small tung oil produced such huge benefits.

Before and after, the gold and silver obtained were as high as ten million taels.

Zhu Di couldn't help but say: "Can the people be so rich?" ”

That was his first thought.

Yes, theoretically speaking, the Ming Dynasty has been peaceful for decades from the Hongwu period.

However, it stands to reason that the Ming Dynasty should not have begun to recover, and the people are still very poor.

But now it seems...... It seems to be completely different...... These people ...... It's too solid, isn't it?

Zhang Anshi said patiently: "Your Majesty, gold and silver are currency, and land is an asset, which will lead to the fact that these gold, silver and land, as long as they are held in their hands and hidden, can be passed on to their children and grandchildren, endlessly, for example, there is a place called Sihai Qianzhuang, which has a history of nearly 100 years......

Zhu Di took a deep breath: "I really didn't expect it, I didn't expect it...... Eleven money banks, now I am mine? ”

Zhang Anshi continued to take the trouble to explain: "We took eighty percent, and His Majesty accounted for fifty percent of the eighty percent, of course...... Ministers and a few, also accounted for some, such as the minister, accounted for twenty percent, and thirty percent, the minister's conscience found that he and a few brothers summed it up, and each gave some to the Qiu family, so calculated, the three of them, roughly about 10%. ”

Zhu Di said happily: "I got fifty percent, then there is no difference between it and mine, I heard...... This bank is the most profitable, haha...... Okay, okay, who else is more powerful than Zhang Qing in this world? Zhang Qing...... Well done, good, good, good ......"

said three good words in a row, Zhu Di's face was full of red light: "It's just a matter of earning silver, and it also supplies military supplies and stabilizes oil prices, which is an immortal achievement." I promised that if you could really share your worries about it, I would give you a reward, and you yourself would like to know what I should reward you. ”

Zhang Anshi smiled, but he was very entangled in his heart, he hated it most when others asked him what he wanted to reward.

I'm thin-skinned, this is too much, you say I'm greedy, but if I be polite to you, according to Your Majesty's stinginess, maybe...... It really did.

Zhu Di looked at Zhang Anshi and encouraged: "Don't worry, as long as you dare to speak, I will not hesitate to reward." ”

Zhang Anshi finally spoke: "The minister has a reluctant request. ”

Zhu Di said happily: "It's okay for you to say. ”

Zhang Anshi said: "The minister thinks that there are some problems with the military system handed down by Emperor Taizu Gao. ”

The temple fell silent.

In fact, Zhang Anshi said that there was nothing wrong with Zhu Di running naked, but as Zhu Di, who held high the banner of Emperor Taizu Gao, he was told to his face that there was a problem with the method of one of Emperor Taizu Gao's ancestors, and this face was a little unbearable.

Zhu Di also lost his eyes at it.

He also lost his understanding, and was busy chasing flies away, driving away all the eunuchs waiting in this palace.

Only then did Zhu Di say: "What's the problem." ”

"Emperor Taizu Gao's heart is good, his old man let the guards Tuntian, but the minister thought that after a long time, the Tuntian soldiers of this guard will degenerate. Those who were able to recruit good warriors will gradually become farmers! Although it is true that raising military horses in this way saves a lot of expenses, what is the use of having more soldiers and horses? ”

Zhu Di stood up and put his hands behind his back, this is his habit of thinking.

Zhu Di then said: "This is called the lesser of two phases, you doll knows a bird, the imperial examination is so sacred, don't you know the doorway?" ”

Zhang Anshi said: "But this can't last long, it can only be urgent." ”

Zhu Di said: "There is also a forbidden army in Beijing as an elite, which is enough to deal with. ”

Zhu Di has been in the army for a long time, and he knows everything about the affairs in the army: "There is a Shenji battalion, a Xiaocai battalion, and a 3,000 battalion, isn't it enough?" ”

Zhang Anshi said: "What does the minister mean...... Maybe we can try to think differently? ”

Zhu Di's idea is not wrong, but Zhang Anshi knows that in the middle and late Ming Dynasty, he was constantly harassed by the Japanese and the Jiannu people, and he was exhausted, and finally the military burden became bigger and bigger, which increased the burden on the people of the world, so that the people rose up.

This guard system is only afraid that it is also a major reason for the destruction of Ming.

Many problems were actually planted in the early Ming Dynasty, and the emperors after Zhu Di had no way to carry out a large number of military reforms.

If you want to solve this problem, you can only have a chance if you propose it while Zhu Di is still there, and even revise it.

So Zhang Anshi said: "Didn't Your Majesty say that you want to reward the ministers with something?" The ministers are bold...... Please ask Your Majesty to build a battalion of men. ”

Zhu Di was stunned, he thought that Zhang Anshi would want to get gold and silver, or the reward of the title, but it really didn't work, you can marry a few daughters-in-law, it's a big deal, the girls of the Qiu family and the Xu family are married.

"You don't have to have a lot of people, three or five hundred people are enough." Zhang Anshi continued with a smile: "For these three or five hundred people, the ministers will supply the military supplies, and the ministers will set the reward and punishment system. The minister did this, he had no selfish thoughts, he just wanted to give it a try, maybe ...... The minister can use another way to govern the army to try the effect. ”

Yizha was listening, and couldn't help but look at Zhang Anshi more.

This is very bold, if these words are put forward by someone else, such as Xie Jin, Zhu Di is afraid that he will suspect that the guy is going to rebel.

However, if it is Zhang Anshi, it may be completely different.

After all, the old Zhu family does have a tradition of letting the lords take charge of the army, such as the Mu family in Yunnan, and the Gu family in Guizhou, Shizhen, not to mention the vassal kings who are large and small and have a large number of guards.

Zhu Di lowered his head and said, "Zhang Qing is really loyal." ”

Yi Lost: "......"

Sure enough, as expected.

Zhu Di said: "However, you are a doll, and you have never been in the army, where do you know the reputation here?" What nonsense! I have been in the army for a long time, and I am familiar with the things in the army, and I am very familiar with this method of leading and training soldiers. You're really foolish. ”

After a pause, he said, "But...... Now that you've brought it up, what can I do? I had to be gracious! I ordered you to suppress Qixia, get on the horse to manage the army, get off the horse to govern the people, and have a battalion of guards, which is also a matter of course. ”

"Well, I'll give you a battalion, five hundred, how about it?"

Zhang Anshi was overjoyed, and only said: "This camp is ...... Can I choose my own name? ”

Zhu Di glared at him and said, "It's up to you, it's up to you, don't be like Zhu Gaoxu's dog son, just take a 'Tiance Guard'." ”

Zhang Anshi already had the answer in his heart, so he said directly: "It's better to call it a model battalion, a model person, a role model, and the minister wants to use this camp as my Ming example." ”

Zhu Di: "......"

Zhu Di found that he was surrounded by a group of arrogant guys! King Han won't talk about it, Zhang Anshi is even more excessive, this name is obviously hateful.

Zhu Di didn't object, sighed and said, "I will make an order, do you have any other requirements?" ”

"Please recruit your own generals, huh...... Let Zhu Yong be the camp officer, Zhang Xuan and Qiu Song as deputies, Your Majesty, they are all voluntary, so there is no intention of coercion. ”

Zhu Di nodded and said, "Yes." ”

Zhang Anshi said again: "This time, they also want to conquer Annan, so it's better to ...... How about asking Your Majesty to let the three of them lead this battalion to the battle? ”

Zhu Di looked at Zhang Anshi strangely, and finally said, "It's up to you." ”

Zhang Anshi was very happy, and said confidently: "Your Majesty, then it's decided." The minister must let this model battalion fire the first shot, and teach everyone in the world to know the prestige of this model battalion. ”

Obviously, Zhu Di felt speechless in his heart, glared at Zhang Anshi and said, "Is there anything else?" ”

"In addition, the minister wants to set up a teaching position in the model camp, and the minister thinks that the new head of the association, Gu Xingzu, is suitable."

Zhu Di touched his chin, he actually felt that Zhang Anshi was serious, although in Zhu Di's mind, this guy's request was actually not much different from that of the playing family.

Zhu Di was also a little more serious, and said: "Gu Xingzu is a Huiyuan, but he is a marquis grandson, so he did not participate in the palace examination, and he does not plan to enter the court as a civil servant, but he is a Huiyuan after all, will he be willing to serve as a mere teacher in the camp?" ”

Zhang Anshi said confidently: "He must be willing." ”

If he doesn't want to, he will fight until he is willing.

Zhu Di said: "If he is willing, I will not stop him." ”

Zhang Anshi continued: "There are still ...... The supplies in this battalion, as well as the quartermasters, and all the drills, were provided by the ministers......"

"Everything." Zhu Di said: "Okay, I have faith in my words, whatever you mention, I will agree, and this matter will be decided like this." ”

Zhang Anshi said happily: "Thank you, Your Majesty...... The minister has another question. ”

Zhu Di thinks this guy ...... It's true that some people are idle, why are there so many things, but they also said patiently: "You say." ”

Zhang Anshi put away his smile at this time, and actually said very seriously: "Is this a minister, is it considered a bad plot?" The minister's iron coupon should be counted. ”

Zhu Di was furious: "What are you talking about!" When have you seen me kill my lords? Hurry back to Qixia Ferry and think about how to take care of the money village! ”

Zhang Anshi's seriousness was suddenly broken, and he said stupidly: "Ask, the minister is just a little worried, the minister ...... Farewell. ”

As he spoke, he ran away.

"This guy ......" Zhu Di shook his head, looked down at the account book, and smiled again: "Obviously he can manage money, but if he has to fix those vain things, he should be allowed to take care of himself, and he can't be idle." ”

Yishaha smiled dryly on the side: "Your Majesty, young people always like to fight and kill. ”

"That's right." Zhu Di bowed his head and smiled: "When I was young, I was like this, I always thought that I could be a commander, but I really followed the King of Zhongshan and King Kaiping to the battlefield, and then I knew...... There's still a lot to learn! ”

"If it weren't for these ten or twenty years of hard work, how could I be where I am today? The young man did not know the difficulties of leading the soldiers, nor had he seen the dangers on the battlefield, so it was inevitable that he would not know the height of the sky. ”

Yishu said: "The slave maid thinks that Cheng Enbo has this thought, and it is also for our Daming country." Don't say whether he's right, at least the mind is right. ”

Zhu Di suddenly showed a little smugness, and said with a smile: "The person I favor, can you still have a bad heart?" ”

The next day, the decree was made.

Zhu Di didn't pay much attention to this.

In fact, Zhu Di was relieved, he promised Zhang Anshi a reward, but he didn't expect Zhang Anshi to only need such a small request.

Just when he almost quickly put this matter behind him, Zhu Gaoxu, the king of Han, came excitedly: "Father, father, ......"

Zhu Di glanced at Zhu Gaoxu with disgust: "Why are you here again?" ”

Zhu Gaoxu said: "Father, I heard that my father asked Zhang Anshi's kid to build a model camp. Father, the whole army is going to laugh off his big teeth, no one in the world knows that this kid's hair has not grown. ”

Zhu Di glared at Zhu Gaoxu angrily: "You take care of yourself." ”

Zhu Gaoxu said: "Father, he Zhang Anshi is just the brother-in-law of the emperor's brother, but Erchen is the son of his father!" How can a son not be as good as an in-law? The father is unfair...... At the beginning, the son wanted to ask his father to allocate the sky to the son and let them be the son's guard, but the father refused, but he promised him. ”

When Zhu Di heard this, he immediately became angry and scolded: "You brute, you can still say, are you Li Yuan?" ”

With that, he rolled up his sleeves, picked up his arms and rushed up to beat them.

Zhu Gaoxu has thick skin, but he is still screaming when he is beaten.

So he wailed and cried, "Father...... Father's ...... Erchen was also born to you, and it was difficult to be appeased at the beginning...... Whining...... What did my father tell his son? His father said, 'I am exhausted, and my son should fight again.' He also stroked his son's back and said, 'Work hard!' The son of the world is often sick. Father, have you forgotten these words? ”

After finishing speaking, Zhu Gaoxu looked aggrieved, beat his heart and said: "Erchen is stupid, I never thought that my father would deceive Erchen like this, Erchen believed it, and he really rushed to kill in front of every battle, never caring about his own life." What's going on now, now that my father is the emperor, my brother is the crown prince, and what about my son...... The retainer has just become a vassal king from a prince...... My father used to favor me everywhere, but now he beats and scolds me all day long, and everyone laughs at his sons and ministers for making wedding dresses...... Erchen's heart is bitter......"

After that, he wiped his tears and choked up so much that he couldn't speak.

Zhu Di listened, his face eased slightly, and said, "Okay, don't cry." ”

"Why is my father so favoritism? Erchen is now just a mere vassal king, no different from other uncles and cousins, how can Erchen be willing? The sons just hope that their father will give the emperor a guardian and teach people to be impressed. When I came to my father's place, it became my sin, and he beat me like this. ”

"Erchen has no face to live in this world, and it is not interesting to live in the world, anyway, there is no difference between having one more father and one less son."

Zhu Di's eyes were slightly red: "You fuck, if you have a little brain, why is it so!" Am I a person with a bowl of uneven water? Go down. Go down. ”

Zhu Gaoxu wiped his tears, and under Zhu Di's gaze, he had no choice but to leave.

Zhu Di's face was gloomy, and he couldn't help but scold: "What a fool, stupid and unreachable......"

After scolding, Zhu Di looked up and lost his hand: "Make an order, give the King of Han a guard of men and horses, and give the Tiance Guard to the King of Han." ”

Yisha nodded: "The slave obeys." ”

This Tiancewei is one of the commanding envoys of the Seventeen Wei pro-army established by Emperor Taizu Gao, and belongs to the forbidden army.

I didn't expect that Zhu Di would agree.

Zhu Di sighed: "This is what I and the prince owe him on credit, gave him this heavenly guard, and gave him a long face, if he still thinks about it in the future, I will not spare him." ”

"That Zhang Anshi asked for the model camp because he wanted to share the country's worries. But King Han, he is my own son, and he wants Tian Cewei because of his selfishness......"

Waving his hand, Zhu Di showed a tired look, and seemed to be worried about this matter.

………………

Zhang Anshi rushed to summon the three brothers and Gu Xingzu.

Gu Xingzu was still happy to see Zhang Anshi, but as soon as he saw Zhu Yong and the three, especially Qiu Song, his face was miserable.

Zhang Anshi touched his head and said: "Xingzu, Xingzu, my dear and beloved Xingzu, you have been closed at home these days, but you miss me badly." ”

Gu Xingzu said: "Students are at home, and they give themselves questions and make three questions......"

Zhang Anshi's face turned green: "Okay, don't do the question in the future, do you have your share in this expedition to Annan?" ”

Gu Xingzu shook his head: "Grandpa is ordered to go to Guizhou, set off to Guizhou, join forces with the army and horses of the Mu family in Yunnan, and enter Annan, I am still young, Grandpa said that he will talk about it in a few years." ”

Zhang Anshi said with emotion: "The man is ambitious in all directions, and the three murderers in our capital are going to go, why don't you go?" ”

Zhu Yong said excitedly: "What's the matter, big brother is going too?" ”

Zhang Anshi said: "I am the three murderers of the capital, and the three murderers of the capital are also me, so if the three of you go, it is equivalent to the eldest brother also going." ”

Zhu Yong felt that his head hurt, why did the three murderers in the capital three people for a while, and four people for a while, the eldest brother jumped his head here and there, and the jump was a little dizzy.

Zhang Anshi coughed and said: "This time, I have taken the initiative to ask Ying, let's build a battalion of people by ourselves." Second brother, you are here to be the battalion officer, Zhang Xuan and Qiu Song are the deputies, and Gu Xingzu is the teacher. Let's recruit 500 men and go to Annam with the army when the time comes. ”

"You see, Your Majesty values us very much, and specially opened a back door for us, this is trust and respect, you must also have confidence, so from now on, I, the general guarding Qixia, will give an order, and our model battalion has been established! You see, I have painted the flag of our model battalion. ”

Everyone was dumbfounded, but saw Zhang Anshi take out a painting draft, only to see that on this draft, there was a huge tiger head, the tiger opened its fangs, and the momentum was harmful.

Zhang Anshi said with great interest: "Look, this is the military flag of our three murderers. This tiger is my eldest brother. Your Majesty praised me as the Tiger of the Ming Dynasty, which is what it means. ”

Zhang Xuan scratched his head: "What about us?" Didn't you say the three murderers? ”

Zhang Anshi said: "I can't draw it, the eldest brother represents you, the eldest brother is the three murderers, and you are also the three murderers, anyway, it means the same thing." ”

Qiu Song said: "There must be a gunpowder bag at the bottom." ”

Zhang Anshi knocked his head: "I can't draw this, okay, now there is no objection, then it is unanimously passed." Next, we have to have camp rules and practice methods. By the way, we have to recruit people. ”

"All in all, from now on, while the army is setting off one after another, we must do our best, train a hundred battles of elite soldiers, and then sweep through Annam, teach the heroes of the world, and impress."

Although the military flag is a little less meaningful.

But no matter what, Zhang Anshi's proposal still made the three brothers full of interest.

Only Gu Xingzu ...... No one seemed to ask for his opinion, just stood aside.

"Let me ask you, what is the most important thing to train military horses and march to fight?"

"Lead by example."

"We must share weal and sorrow with the soldiers."

"Prepare plenty of gunpowder."

Zhang Anshi sneered, it's all right, okay!

"All this...... Nothing else, only three conditions, money, money, money! As long as our money is spent like flowing water, we don't have to worry about not being able to dominate the world! ”

Brothers, give me a monthly pass, love you!
