Actually, it wasn't a strange thing for Liu Xuan to want to go around.

It seems normal for the Son of Heaven to inspect the world, and it is impossible for Liu Xuan to run around the entire territory of the Han Dynasty - not to mention anything else, except for the northwestern counties, those places are all controlled by the princes, if Liu Xuan is in the past, wouldn't he have thrown himself into the net?

Although he is not afraid of what the other party is playing to coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes, but there will definitely be no less trouble, at that time, these princes will not pay attention to anything like the 'Son of Heaven', 'Emperor', 'Lord of the World' and the like, they just want to catch this tool that can 'command the world'.

Therefore, even if Liu Xuan inspects, he will only limit the scope to Yongliang and Liang, and for safety, Liangzhou, which is not yet fully controlled, must also be excluded, and at the same time, the northernmost border area of Yongzhou should not be visited.

In this case, what you want to inspect is an area in the north of the Qinling Mountains, whether it is big or not, whether it is small or not, if Liu Xuan's actions are a little faster, he will be able to turn around in a year.

There was a plan in his heart, he didn't directly tell his two younger brothers to know, and even Cai Yan didn't tell him, because the matter of the Son of Heaven's patrol was very important, and there were many details to be discussed and determined, and it would definitely not be decided for a while.

At the same time, even if those details are confirmed, the real time of departure will not be now, at least until the spring flowers bloom, otherwise this ice and snow will run around - is the Son of Heaven playing a survival game with a large number of people?

Coming out of the palace, Liu Xuan took Cai Yan to Cai Yong's mansion, and someone had already informed Cai Yong that Cai Shangshu knew that the Son of Heaven would take the queen to his mansion.

Although it is nominally to meet his father-in-law, but once this is a normal thing and has something to do with the emperor, it becomes unusual.

Cai Yong, who was supposed to stay in his own mansion and wait, was ready to greet him early, and at the same time sent people to look at him from afar, as long as the emperor came, he would come back immediately to report it, so that he could go out in advance to greet him - in fact, before the emperor arrived, there would naturally be officials to inform him.

But Liu Xuan and Cai Yan didn't go out with much fanfare this time, even Liu Xuan himself wore a very ordinary dress, and he was no different from those ordinary 'big children' when he walked on the street.

Only Zhang Liao and Qin Yilu were guarded behind him, and the rest of Yu Linlang were scattered around, protecting them from afar, which was also to facilitate the Son of Heaven to have as much fun as possible when he was relaxed, otherwise a large group of people would be crowded, and the few people on the street would not immediately run away when they saw it, in Liu Xuan's words: "That is really boring!"

Walking around, Liu Xuan suddenly noticed a familiar figure not far in front of him, who seemed to be talking to the people on the street. After looking closely, Liu Xuan immediately saw who that person was.

"Wen Yuan, go and call Gongda!"

That person is Xun You, the head of the household, I didn't expect to meet him here in the winter, Liu Xuan was curious about what this Xun You was doing here-and he looked like a bookkeeper.

Xun You was talking to the ordinary people, and suddenly heard someone next to him calling him, and when he turned around, he found that it was Zhang Liao, although he was a little surprised, but he didn't feel anything.

Although Zhang Liao is a general of Yulin, he often guards Liu Xuan's side, but he doesn't always guard, and he also has his own time to rest, so Xun You only thought that Zhang Liao was also out to hang out, but unexpectedly, Zhang Liao came over directly after seeing the salute and whispered: "Xun Shangshu, Your Majesty called you over." ”

Xun You was startled, and immediately looked into the distance, and immediately saw the group of people standing on the corner of the street.

However, he didn't immediately run over in a panic, but talked to Zhang Liao as usual, then said goodbye to the people, and finally walked to Liu Xuan, and greeted him in a very hidden manner.

But it was Xun You who saw that Liu Xuan didn't want to make too much noise today, so he acted like this. Liu Xuan was also very satisfied when he saw Xun You so vigilant, but he was still wondering why Xun You came out in the cold wind today? Therefore, after seeing the ceremony, he asked directly: "In such a cold weather, Gongda is not at home, why is he running outside?"

"Your Majesty is asking the ministers to re-plan the currency system, and in order to understand what the people think, they ask around to see what the people think about it?"

Only then did Liu Xuan know that Xun Yu was not staying at home, but was running around in the cold wind, all because of the task he gave him.

It is not an easy task to restore the economic system. Although Liu Xuan gave three currencies of gold, silver and copper, the issuance of currency does not mean that your court will mint it and then it will be able to pass it. If the people don't accept it, then your currency is basically scrap metal, and it is useless.

Xun You walked around, that is, in the winter season, most of the people stayed at home, and it was easier to find people, so he chose this time to come out.

"So, according to Gongda, what is the situation?"

However, I only visited the people in Chang'an City, and the people in the city were basically quite wealthy, so I had no opinion on the new coins introduced by the imperial court. However, the minister met a few poor peasant families who lived outside the city and went into the city to sell fur and dried firewood, and after testing, he found that they were interested in the coins issued by the imperial court...... There is a general attitude of mistrust. ”

This is also a normal thing, in fact, for the coin, it is these poor people who really care.

Those who are big people, even if the money can't be used, they have other means. The family has a solid background, and there are more choices, and the court implements a new currency, even if they want to buy peace, they will be willing to accept it if they don't offend the court.

But ordinary people are different, if the court buys the goods in their hands with money, this coin becomes the only property they have, if it has no effect, it cannot be exchanged for the food and clothing they urgently need, then the family can basically only wait for death.

When it comes to their own survival, they naturally attach great importance to it. However, when Emperor Ling was in power, he frantically minted money, and he had already ruined the reputation of the court and coins, and now although Xun You made it clear that 'the new emperor wants to implement new coins', they only feel that this is another means for the court to change the law to exploit them.

"Really?"

Liu Xuan didn't expect this question to be so troublesome, compared to whether the regulations of one gold, ten silver, and one thousand bronze that he casually formulated were in line with the current era, it was not worth caring.

Now the trouble is still how to push the coins out! Otherwise, the great Han Dynasty can't always barter, right? That would be too backward?

"Is there a good way to get a solution?"

Xun You thought about it, as if he was sorting out the thoughts in his mind, and only after a while did he say: "The minister has thought of some solutions, and I think that in the final analysis, the most important problem is food!"

"Grain?"

"That's right, grain!" Xun You nodded, and accentuated his tone: "Now that the imperial court is on the right track under His Majesty's governance, and thanks to the power of the jade talisman given by His Majesty, there have been bumper harvests around Chang'an, and the grain is piled up in the barn, which not only makes the people of Chang'an not have to worry about food, but also the entire Yongzhou has benefited from it, so why don't we take advantage of this and promote the coins out of the way?"

"Talk about it carefully!" beckoned to Xun You, and listened to Xun You's explanation while walking slowly forward. The few women beside him knew that the emperor was talking about business, so they deliberately took two steps slower to open a little distance, looked at the scenery on the street by themselves, and spoke in a low voice, leaving a space for Xun You and Liu Xuan.

"The people's greatest concern is always their food - they can endure without clothes to wear, but if they have no food to eat, then how can they endure it, they will die if they can't survive for a few days, so food is what the people are most concerned about. ”

"The minister intends to set up a grain and rice shop in Chang'an and the entire county of Yongzhou, this shop is an official establishment, as long as you use the currency issued by the imperial court to buy food, as long as you let the people understand that this coin can be exchanged for the grain and rice they urgently need, over time the people will naturally recognize the purchasing power of the new coin. ”

"If the people approve of it, then the new coin will slowly become a currency that can be used on a large scale!"

Liu Xuan nodded, and suddenly understood what Xun Yu meant by this-in fact, this is a bit like the promotion method of the silver ticket in later generations, as long as you take the silver ticket we approve and come to the money bank we opened, you can exchange it for the corresponding silver tael.

After a long time, the people understood that the silver ticket and the silver were items of equal value, so they naturally recognized the purchasing power of the silver ticket.

At that time, it was the period of the silver standard, and Liu Xuan listened to Xun You's explanation, and finally realized that the Han under his Liu Xuan's governance was the grain standard......

What kind of gold, silver, etc., for the people, these things that cannot be eaten are useless at all, and they are not as good as food when they are exchanged for food.

"Sure enough, the food is bigger than the sky!"

However, this method requires the imperial court to be able to continue to provide enough food, because in the early days, the people must have a skeptical attitude, and there are definitely not a few people who take coins and run directly to exchange them for food. If the imperial court's grain and rice shops could not be supplied, then this plan would be tantamount to a complete failure.

"Food...... Is the food that the imperial court currently has enough?"

Xun You heard Liu Xuan ask this, knowing that the emperor realized the key to this plan, and said something with a smile: "Your Majesty, the minister's cultivation has improved in recent days, and he has also comprehended several abilities, and he is about to talk to His Majesty in detail." ”

"Oh, what abilities?"

"How to arrange the arrangement methods of the magic array such as high grain yield and rapid maturity, as well as the skills of refining the basic array jade talisman!" Xun You arched his hand and said two abilities that Liu Xuan had completely unexpected.

"It turned out to be these abilities? I didn't expect this Xun You to develop into the logistics talents he needed the most?" was stunned, and Liu Xuan was immediately overjoyed.

Originally, the tricks he taught contained those miscellaneous techniques, which were related to some basic cultivation and civilization establishment techniques, but no one had comprehended them, and he was thinking about whether to cultivate some talents in this area by himself, and he learned that Xun You had comprehended the two most basic abilities.

Since Xun You can comprehend, then ......

"By the way, there are just a few talents in the northwest, maybe these people can also be trained into people like Xun Yu who pay more attention to people's livelihood ability?
