Chapter 275: Be low-key

The pilgrimage will disperse.

Chen Kan was left alone by Zhu Di.

"Are you really sure that you will be able to restore the value of the treasure money within half a year?"

Zhu Di put his hands behind his back, and the serious expression on his face was replaced by anticipation and excitement.

If the treasure money can really restore its value, doesn't that mean that the imperial court will have endless money?

Zhu Di has already begun to fantasize about the arrogant days of spending money one by one and losing one by one.

Looking at Zhu Di's appearance, Chen Kan really didn't want to pour cold water on him.

But it can't be helped, adults, you always have to face reality.

Chen Kan shook his head: "Within half a year, the minister can only guarantee that the treasure banknotes of the Jingshi will be restored to value, as for the locality, unless the Ming Imperial Bank is blooming everywhere." ”

"Weichen estimates that if he wants to popularize the treasure banknote to every corner of the Ming Dynasty, and then radiate it to the surrounding countries, it will take ten years to build a foundation."

Sure enough, as soon as Chen Kan's words fell, the smile on Zhu Di's face instantly collapsed.

He looked at Chen Kan angrily: "Ten years, how can it take so long?" ”

Chen Kan sighed helplessly and explained: "Your Majesty, my Ming Dynasty covers a territory of thousands of miles, from the East China Sea in the east, to the South Seas in the south, to the plateau in the west, and to the grassland in the north.

It is not a day's work to get a bank to every place where there are people.

Not to mention the current road situation of my Ming Dynasty, it is a huge problem to transport treasure money and gold and silver to every place where there are people.

What's more, the new type of treasure money promoted by the minister has not yet established credit among the people.

Ten years, it is already the case that the Emperor Taizu has issued treasure banknotes to lay a good foundation for our generation, otherwise the minister will definitely tell you to lay the foundation for at least twenty years. ”

After listening to Chen Kan's words, Zhu Di's face showed a look of dejection.

How can he, the emperor, not understand these things.

Daming is too big, and if an ordinary person wants to go from the easternmost side of Daming to the westernmost side, it will take at least a year to lay the foundation.

The complex national conditions of the Ming Dynasty make it even more difficult to popularize treasure banknotes.

Barter, the most primitive form of trading, is still used in many places, and the level of gold and silver trading has not yet been reached, let alone a piece of paper is implemented in such a place.

It was precisely because Chen Kan understood these things that he decided to start erecting a credit currency system for treasure banknotes from Nanjing.

It is almost impossible for such a thing as treasure money to be quickly promoted to the whole country without the assistance of electronic equipment.

exchanged opinions with Zhu Di about the treasure banknote, and Zhu Di only gave Chen Kan one sentence: "Let it go." ”

Since Zhu Di spared no effort to support himself, Chen Kan naturally had to repay the favor.

So he decisively spoke out about the disadvantages of the military registration system and the household registration system.

Of course, Chen Kan is not stupid enough to directly tell Zhu Di that the household registration system set by your father is, you should change it quickly, otherwise Daming will be over......

It's just that the matter of these craftsmen in the treasure money division turned a corner and told him a story.

Sure enough, after Chen Kan finished telling the story, Zhu Di's face became a little embarrassed.

He wanted to defend his father.

But when he thought of his original intention of insisting on sending troops to the grassland, he fell silent again.

"I know!"

Zhu Di's face calmed down.

Seeing this, Chen Kan didn't say anything more.

In the final analysis, he Zhu Di is the emperor of the Ming Dynasty.

As a courtier, the only thing he can do is to tell him what he hears and sees, and as for how to do it, whether to do it or not, that is his business.

However, seeing Zhu Di's calm appearance, Chen Kan knew that he already knew what he was talking about.

Today's matter of coming to the palace has been completed, and Chen Kan plans to run away.

"In that case, the minister will retire."

Zhu Di waved his hand: "Go ahead." ”

Seeing Chen Kan walk away, a trace of tiredness flashed in Zhu Di's eyebrows.

Only by sitting in this position did he know how heavy the burden was on his body.

What Chen Kan said, he didn't notice it.

But whether it is a military or a craftsman, it is the foundation of the Ming Dynasty, how can it be so easy to change?

Behind the hukou system is an interest group that is not inferior to the maritime ban, and he can now sit on the throne because of the support of these interest groups.

Even if he is an emperor, he has to take care of some things.

These things mentioned by Chen Kan are included.

If it weren't for his scruples, why would he appoint cool officials like Chen Ying and Ji Gang?

Sitting on the dragon chair, Zhu Di slowly closed his eyes and muttered to himself: "The road has to be walked step by step, and the food has to be eaten one bite at a time." ”

After speaking, his face suddenly showed a decisive look, as if he had made some important decision.

......

Official road outside the city.

A convoy of vehicles came across from Chen Kan's carriage.

The team has more than 100 people, all of whom are armed with swords, dressed as a ranger.

"The car of the Marquis of Jinghai is driving here, and the idle people are avoiding."

Zhang San rode on a tall horse, condescendingly looking at the convoy coming across the road.

Chen Kan lifted the curtain of the carriage and reprimanded angrily: "How many times have I told you, you have to be low-key, low-key, do you understand?" ”

"Got it!"

Zhang San picked the back of his head, lowered his voice and said, "My lord said that we are low-key, please get out of the way quickly." ”

Chen Kan: "......"

Although, Chen Kan didn't hear any low-key meaning in this sentence.

However, with Chen Kan's current status in Daming, in addition to encountering the perverts of the older generation, ordinary officials and nobles really don't need to be taken seriously.

When the convoy on the opposite side heard that it was Jinghai Hou, they didn't have a head-to-head confrontation with Chen Kan, but quickly made a gap in the road.

When Chen Kan's carriage passed by the carriage opposite, Chen Kan unexpectedly lifted the curtain of the carriage.

Coincidentally, the carriage on the opposite side also lifted the curtains.

The face of a beautiful face met Chen Kan's eyes, and there was a delicate maid.

The two inadvertently glanced at each other, and Chen Kan once again felt a feeling of amazement.

"What a beautiful woman!"

Chen Kan couldn't help but mutter.

This is the third time that Chen Kan has this feeling since he came to Daming, the first time was when he met the big-eyed cute girl, and the second time was when he went to Yunnan to meet Maggie.

This woman gave Chen Kan a different feeling than the previous two.

The big-eyed cute girl is cute with a little coquettishness, a typical silly white sweet style.

Maggie is wild, wild, with a hint of openness in her beauty, a bit of a queen's feeling.

And this woman gave Chen Kan only one word: "beauty"

The ultimate beauty, the beauty that cannot be described in words.

After a quick glance, Chen Kan could no longer forget that face.

This time it was definitely not Chen Kan's lustful attribute that attacked, but he had an intuition in his heart that this woman would definitely appear in his life again.

As we all know, Chen Kan's intuition has always been accurate.

Chen Kan's car had already gone far away, and the woman still did not retract her gaze.

The delicate maid couldn't help but whisper softly in the woman's ear: "Miss, people have gone far." ”

The woman came back to her senses, and a smile appeared on her face: "Let's go." ”

"Miss, this Jinghai Hou is so handsome, better looking than the rumors, but unfortunately, I haven't seen it clearly."

In the carriage, the voice of the maid sounded, chirping like a little sparrow.

The woman said, "It's okay, I'll see you again." ”

"It's a pity, he has already married a princess, otherwise I think you and him are a natural pair, Miss..."

“......”

Since work was due to start tomorrow morning, none of the craftsmen in the treasure money division had returned home.

Instead, they stayed in the factory and got together in twos and threes to brag.

A craftsman said worriedly: "You say, how long can Master Hou stay in the treasure banknote division?" ”

Another craftsman responded: "It's hard to say, I'm afraid that Master Hou will leave soon." ”

This is a question that has been discussed countless times by the craftsmen, but the results have not been good.

When Chen Kan came, he only said that he came to make a new type of treasure banknote, and did not say the specific time.

The craftsmen estimated that after the new treasure banknote was made, the young marquis was almost leaving.

After all, it is Lord Hou, a fairy-like character, who deals with military affairs, how can he stay in such a small place as the Bao Qian Division all the time.

And the reason why they discussed this issue was mainly because the young Hou Ye could let them live a good life.

Who knows if their days will change back to the way they were when that Hou Ye leaves.

"Okay, don't guess, what is the reason why Master Hou can't buy your life after giving twenty taels of silver?"

Lao Hei suddenly reprimanded the craftsmen who mentioned this topic.

Then he said with a calm face: "Don't be dissatisfied, if there is no Hou Ye, where did you come to your current life, not to mention that Hou Ye also rewarded us with so much money, you must be grateful, even if Hou Ye leaves, can our life be worse than before Hou Ye came?" ”

"That can't be!"

"That designation can't."

Lao Hei has a high prestige among the craftsmen, and just a few words made several craftsmen shake their heads again and again.

As soon as they thought of the days when they were used as tools by the imperial court, a look of horror appeared on the faces of the craftsmen.

"Say something every day, if you don't have it, it's better to think about how to make a more exquisite treasure banknote."

Lao Hei walked away with his hands behind his back.

And the same thing happens in every corner of the Treasure Banknote Division.

The craftsmen came to their senses, Lao Hei was right, Hou Ye gave twenty taels, and it was right to sell his life to the imperial court.

This scene happened to be seen by Chen Kan, who was passing by the Treasure Banknote Division.

But Chen Kan didn't bother them, but walked straight through the treasure banknote division and walked towards the row of wooden houses on the hill next to the waterfall.

Unlike the Treasure Banknote Division, this row of workshops is absolutely not allowed to outsiders to enter, and the level of top secrecy is top-notch.

Even when the Treasure Money Division was completed that day, those officials proposed to go in and visit, but Chen Kan ruthlessly refused.

can enter and exit here freely, except for the craftsmen inside, only Chen Kan is alone.

And even Chen Kan had to go through a head-to-head search before entering the door.
