"See His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

"I've seen His Royal Highness the King of Qin, I've seen His Royal Highness the King of Jin, and I've seen the Prince of Jingjiang."

"Xiao Hou."

As soon as Anren, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, walked into the mansion, he saluted again and again, and even, there was a touch of helplessness in his heart, this Suning Hou Mansion was really lively as always.

"No need to be polite."

"Shan Shangshu, come here today, what is the so-called?"

Zhu Biao, who was sitting in the first place, looked at Shan Anren in front of him and waved his hand slightly, before asking.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

"The printing department has been implemented, and all the craftsmen of printing have been assembled."

Shan Anren bowed down and looked at Zhu Biaodao again.

"So fast?"

Xiao Han frowned slightly.

"Lord Qiqi."

"You can rest assured."

A flash of pride flashed in Shan Anren's eyes.

Daming treasure banknotes are very important for Daming, absolutely not to be lost, the printing department, is the most important of them, so, in order to ensure that the printing department, can be completed on schedule, Shan Anren went directly to the household department, paid a sum of silver, bought a mansion, changed to the printing department.

Of course, the construction budget was not exceeded, and even Shan Anren saved a lot of expenses for the imperial court.

Immediately, Shan Anren submitted the expenditure account of the construction of the Ministry of Industry to Zhu Biao, and said: "All the expenditures for the construction of the Printing Division are here, and the old minister dares to use his head as a guarantee for the quality assurance of the Printing Division." ”

Facing the sworn Shan Anren, Zhu Biao and Xiao Han nodded in unison, just this bill is clear and simple, just this point, half of the ministers in the court are estimated to be unable to do it, but it is a pity that Shan Anren is old, and in a few years, he will have to retire, otherwise, this alone will have to be reused.

"Dick."

"You take down this account book and check it, and after you check it, you will rub out a few copies of this account book and send them to the six departments, Zhongshu Province, so that they can see what the account book is."

Zhu Biao flipped through the account book in his hand and handed it to Zhu Zhangdao on the side.

"Yes."

Zhu Fan took the account book and bowed slightly.

After all, if there are outsiders present, you have to do enough to save face, otherwise, if you spread it, there will be no etiquette, I don't know the etiquette, and it is a bit of a royal recruitment, so try to restrain yourself.

As for Xiao Han on the side, he shook his head slightly, but he didn't care, he originally remembered the deterrent effect, otherwise, just the account book, how many courtiers would have to be arrested?

But now it is an eventful season, and the court officials are already scarce, so the agreement reached between Xiao Han and Zhu Biao on the matter of accounts is to delay it for a while, and wait for the officials of the court to make up for it, and then take it out for strict investigation.

Anyway, the feudal dynasty said and did everything in one sentence, and besides, the reform of the economic system also needed this means to make up for the shortcomings.

After all, everyone understands that the initial accumulation of primitive capital often has means that cannot be seen.

"When will the trading market be decided?"

Then, Zhu Biao looked at Shan Anren again and asked loudly: "There is also the Transaction Management Division, can it be implemented before the spring of next year?" ”

After all, even if the Printing Department cannot be built before the spring of next year, Zhu Biao can temporarily transfer officials to open the way for the Printing Department.

However, the beginning of this transaction system must be completed on schedule, otherwise, there will be a huge gap in the setting of the initial template, which is more than worth the loss.

"Your Highness."

"At the beginning of next year, it will definitely be completed on schedule."

"Please rest assured, Your Highness."

Shan Anren still swore and promised.

"Don't worry."

"The drawings I gave to Shan Shangshu are not complicated."

"So, it will definitely be completed on schedule next year."

Xiao Han picked up the tea cup on the table, took a sip lightly, and said with a smile: "After all, it is a large-scale trading market, and it is still the first trading market in my Ming Dynasty, so it can't be too shabby, so be a little patient." ”

"Hmm."

Zhu Biao nodded, got up, looked at Xiao Han and said, "Then let's go, let's go and see the printing department together, and by the way, take a look at the printed Daming treasure banknotes, whether they need to be changed." ”

"Hmm."

Xiao Han also nodded, and did not refute, after all, this is an important turning point in the reform of the Ming Dynasty, and as a creator, he naturally has to see it.

"Then the old minister, let's take the first step and prepare."

Shan Anren looked at Xiao Han and Zhu Biao again, and bowed slightly.

"Hmm."

Zhu Biao waved his hand, Shan Anren was respectful again, and then slowly withdrew from the mansion.

"That's right."

"Brother Muying, Fengxue pleases you with one thing."

Shan Anren stepped out of the mansion, Xiao Han nodded his forehead slightly, then turned his head to look at Mu Ying with a blank face, and said softly: "Help me collect as much garlic as possible, and even, garlic seeds, help me collect them." ”

"How much garlic do you need to collect more?"

Mu Ying nodded, but still looked at Xiao Han and asked, "Give me a specific number?" ”

"There is no specific number, the more the better, if you can fill my Suning Hou Mansion, then fill the Suning Hou Mansion."

The corners of Xiao Han's mouth hooked up into a smile.

"When did you like garlic so much?"

Mu Ying nodded, but Zhu Fan on the side looked at Xiao Han curiously and asked.

In my memory, Xiao Han does like to eat garlic, but filling the entire Suning Hou Mansion is a bit too exaggerated, right?

However, there is a little interesting thing here, that is, Da Ming's garlic eating wind is caused by Xiao Han.

Moreover, from the early years of Hongwu to the third year of Hongwu, Xiao Han's classic sayings have been passed down forever, from the princes and nobles to the peddlers and pawns, it can be said that everyone knows and knows it.

If you don't eat garlic when you eat noodles, the fragrance is half less!

Even Lao Zhu Changchang can smash it twice, so you can imagine how much Xiao Han loves garlic.

"All these garlics are useful."

Xiao Han glanced at Zhu Fan and said, "Besides, how much garlic can I eat in a year, how can I use so much garlic." ”

"What's that for?"

Zhu Biao still didn't understand, so he asked.

After all, what else can garlic do other than eat?

"It's so useful."

"Anyway, I don't understand it now."

"You'll understand in a few days."

Xiao Han thought about it slightly, and found that it was still quite troublesome to explain, so he waved his hand, but then, he looked at Zhu Biao again, and said seriously: "However, this silver, I can't give it out, I have to come with you, after all, it's not my business alone." ”

"Okay."

Zhu Biao opened his mouth and nodded helplessly.

"Moreover, from now on, Daming will have to grow garlic for a long time for several years in the future, otherwise, the demand will not be enough, but it will be a big deal."

Xiao Han nodded with satisfaction.

"Why?"

Zhu Biao asked curiously again.

"Can you stop being a curious baby?"

Xiao Han rolled his eyes, but said angrily: "I said, when I study it first and the experiment is successful, you will know why." ”

This kind of thing, how do you ask Xiao Han to explain it to the ancients?

After all, smart is smart, but it's a matter of science, and at this level of academic discussion, Xiao Han and a few ancients can't pee into a pit, so you must study it first, and the experiment is successful, so you can explain it clearly.

So what does Xiao Han want to use garlic for?

Antibiotics have to be mentioned here.

What are Antibiotics?

Antibiotics are a class of drugs used to treat bacterial infections that inhibit the growth of bacteria or kill them.

However, in ancient times, it was difficult to develop antibiotics, but allicin had a similar effect and was the easiest to be born.

So what is allicin?

Allicin is a compound extracted from garlic, which has a variety of biological activities such as antibacterial, antiviral, antifungal and antitumor.

However, the mechanism of action of allicin differs from that of antibiotics in that it does not directly kill bacteria or inhibit their growth, but rather exerts its antimicrobial effect by interfering with the metabolic processes of bacteria.

Compared with antibiotics, the effect of allicin is slightly inferior, but extracting allicin is not very difficult for the current Daming, after all, there is already a purification appliance in front of him.

The second is the alcohol mentioned earlier, which is used for external application, and the allicin is used for oral administration, which can play a maximum role in sterilization, so as to completely solve the problem of death due to tetanus in ancient times.

Of course, antibiotics are not impossible to study, after all, everything grows with its own fixed number, free of its own laws, and when it comes to next year, Xiao Han will think about studying it.

Moreover, why is it set for next year, because Xiao Han has already selected a good helper, and I still remember that Lao Zhu has a son who has recently been pushed to the forefront and has not subsided.

That is naturally our little Wu King Zhu Hu, after all, this is a medical genius, and if Zhu Hu can be trained well, Hongwu Medical College will be considered a trick.

"Then I won't ask, wait for your good news."

Zhu Biao just shrugged his shoulders about this, anyway, he was used to it, not to mention, Xiao Han naturally had his reasons for doing things, and when he encountered something he didn't want to explain, it could only mean that it was them stupid dogs who couldn't understand.

"Tong Zhangshun, you go to the kitchen later and send the two chickens that Benhou air-dried to the small kitchen of Kunning Palace."

But Xiao Han didn't even look at Zhu Biao, but looked at Tong Zhangshun on the side and beckoned.

"Yes."

Tong Zhangshun bowed slightly.

Zhu Biao just wanted to open his mouth, but was scolded by Xiao Han, so he glanced at Zhu Fan beside him.

"Air-dried chicken?"

"Brother, what are you trying to prepare for?"

Zhu Fan was too sensible, so he looked directly at Xiao Han and asked for his eldest brother Zhu Biao.

"Of course it's delicious."

The corners of Xiao Han's mouth hooked up a smile and said, "Otherwise, why send it to Kunning Palace?" ”

"Air-dried chicken, can you still eat it?"

Zhu Biao frowned slightly, but couldn't help but look at Xiao Han and said, "You also took it to Kunning Palace, what do you pretend to be every day?" ”

"Huh."

"You can skip it."

Xiao Han was not used to Zhu Biao, so he raised his head arrogantly and said.

"You're going to be clear."

"Otherwise, Zhang Shun will not be able to send those two chickens into Kunning Palace."

Zhu Biao glanced at Xiao Han, who was a little arrogant, and said a little angrily: "You think Kunning Palace is your home, it is the important town of the Six Palaces, even if it is a small kitchen, the daily ingredients must be checked, so if you don't understand, the harem will be directly seized." ”

"Uh-uh."

"Those were two chicks, and after they were bled and dried, they were coated with more than a dozen spices, and then crushed into powder and used to mix noodles."

Xiao Han's eyes suddenly flashed a touch of helplessness, and then he looked at Zhu Biao, shrugged his shoulders and said: "I have tasted it, the taste is really good, even if there is no condiment, just the noodles that are boiled are surprisingly fragrant, so I want to give the old man and his mother a taste." ”

"You have the most ideas."

Zhu Biao rolled his eyes helplessly, but I have to say that what Xiao Han said was indeed very tempting, and even the brothers on the side had a hint of longing in their eyes.

"Shall we go and try it together?"

Zhu Wenzheng's harazi was about to flow to the ground, and then he wiped it casually, but he still looked at Xiao Han with a longing expression and asked.

"No problem."

"But you should ask for a will, after all, it is about Kunning Palace, and I am not qualified to call the shots."

Xiao Han didn't care, at most he scored a few bowls of noodles, but it was two chickens, and they couldn't finish it.

"Let's go, let's get down to business first!"

A flash of joy flashed in Zhu Wenzheng's eyes, and then, he directly pulled up Xiao Han, that is, he wanted to go to the Printing Division, hurry up, return to the palace after the work, and eat noodles!

"Let's go."

Zhu Biao also nodded lightly.

Immediately, a group of brothers rushed to the printing department.

"See His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

"I've seen His Royal Highness the King of Qin, I've seen His Royal Highness the King of Jin, and I've seen the Prince of Jingjiang."

"I've seen Xiao Hou, General Mu, General Lan, and General He."

At the door of the Printing Division, Shan Anren, who rushed over, led a group of officials from the Printing Division, looked at Zhu Biao and his party who slowly got out of the carriage, and said respectfully.

"No need to be polite."

Zhu Biao, like the Marquis of Suning, waved his hand lightly, and said with a smile: "The weather is cold, let's go in and talk again, don't get caught in the cold." ”

"Please rest assured, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, it is very warm in the Printing Division."

Shan Anren still bowed and said.

Xiao Han is frail and sickly, and his body bones have always been brittle, so he can't tolerate sloppiness, so Shan Anren hurried back to the printing department non-stop, and the first thing he did was to add coal to the brazier to ensure that the temperature in the room must be very warm, otherwise, Xiao Han would definitely not be able to hold on.

"Hmm."

Zhu Biao nodded with satisfaction, and took the lead in entering the Printing Division, followed by Xiao Han and Shan Anren.

"Hu Jianchang, the head of the Xiaguan Printing Division, visited His Royal Highness the Prince, and met Xiao Hou."

When he entered the mansion of the Printing Department, Hu Jianchang of the Printing Department walked out of the officials, and looked at Xiao Han and Zhu Biao, and made a mockery again.

"Master Hu, I ask you, according to the Daming treasure banknote template created by the Ministry of Industry, how many Daming treasure banknotes can you print today, and every day in the future, can you have an estimate of the number of Daming treasure banknotes printed?"

Zhu Biao didn't bother to talk nonsense at all, so he looked directly at Hu Jianchang and asked out loud.

"If it is printed today, one or two thousand copies can be printed, after all, the current printing department has not yet printed the Daming treasure banknotes, but after a while, when everyone's hands are familiar, the progress will be accelerated a little, so Weichen's estimate is between 10,000 sheets."

Hu Jianchang thought about it slightly, and then bowed down.

After all, Hu Jianchang also understands that instead of falsely reporting the number, it is better to be realistic, otherwise, when that day comes, if you can't play, it will be a crime of bullying the king.

Moreover, the currency template created by the Ministry of Industry according to the drawings given by Xiao Han is too diverse and complex, and even if you want to eat thoroughly, you have to adapt to it for a while.

"That's it, don't be in a hurry today, you print a set first, and after today, we will depend on the situation of printing."

Zhu Biao turned his head to look at Xiao Han on the side, Xiao Han thought for a while, and then said: "After all, if you print one or two thousand copies today, you can't see the effect at all, which is equivalent to a waste, so let's take a look at the actual effect first, if you are not satisfied, there is still time to change it, otherwise, wait until the spring of next year, the trading market will open, and the Daming treasure will be insufficient, so it will be really embarrassing." ”

"Then let's settle it."

Zhu Biao nodded in agreement, then looked at Hu Jianchang, and said: "Everything is subject to Xiao Hou's intentions, go and prepare." ”

"Yes."

Hu Jianchang bowed again, then straightened up, looked at Xiao Han and asked, "Master Hou, do you have any suggestions for printing Daming treasure banknotes?" ”

"The thickness of the paper, how thick is it?"

Xiao Han thought for a while, and then asked directly.

"Lord Qiqi."

"Xiaguan is the banknote of the Yuan Dynasty as the standard, so the thickness of the Daming treasure banknote and the banknote of the Yuan Dynasty has hardly changed much."

Hu Jianchang looked at Xiao Han and raised his hand.

Since Hu Jianchang took over the printing department, in addition to the Ming treasure banknotes, of course, he also has to study the Jiaozi of the Northern Song Dynasty, as well as the banknotes of the Yuan Dynasty, otherwise, without this diamond diamond, dare to take this porcelain work?

"Nope."

"You can't measure the thickness of my Ming treasure banknotes by the thickness of the banknotes of the Yuan Dynasty."

"It's too easy to be imitated, and it's not a good thing for the currency itself."

Xiao Han shook his head decisively, and then, looking at the piece on the table, he threw it directly to Hu Jianchang and said: "According to the veneer on this piece, as a standard for measuring the thickness, it cannot exceed this board, and at the same time, on the top of each Daming treasure banknote, a serial number must be marked, for example, the first Daming treasure banknote printed is crowned with one, and so on, 300,000 pieces will be issued first." ”

"Yes!"

Hu Jianchang nodded heavily, and went directly to the printing department, preparing to study this thickness, so as to print the first Daming treasure banknote.

"What are you talking about, what are you using this serial number, and there are so many Daming treasure banknotes, is that serial number really enough?"

Zhu Biao turned his head, looked at Xiao Han and asked.

"Of course, it is useful, in order to distinguish the authenticity, and, on this serial number, you have to put in much more effort than printing Da Ming Baochao."

"After all, if you can't completely eliminate counterfeiting, it's the people who will suffer."

Xiao Han waved his hand lightly, and that was the way.

The anti-counterfeiting logo of the Daming treasure banknote, in addition to the complex lines on the treasure banknote, then this serial number, you have to think of some other way, but for whether the serial number is enough, Xiao Han is too lazy to answer.

Ask for recommendation tickets, ask for monthly tickets, and kneel down to thank the brothers! Still working hard to explode!
