"The former Yuan died in less than a hundred years, you used their old system to harm the Ming Dynasty, do you want the Ming Dynasty to die in a hundred years?"

Li Wei also reprimanded angrily.

Xu Hui was shocked, Li Wei's words were too vicious, and if he was not good, he might fall to the ground.

He first glanced at Zhu Yuanzhang quickly, and sure enough, seeing that his gaze became cold, he was immediately frightened, and hurriedly pointed at Li Wei and refuted loudly:

"You talk nonsense! The former Yuan also inherited the Song system, and I still acted in the system, how can it be regarded as a scourge to the Ming Dynasty? ”

"Hmph, the Song Dynasty has also lost half of the country in more than a hundred years, if future generations are as conservative as you and do not want to forge ahead, then how can the Ming Dynasty create a prosperous era and surpass the previous dynasty?"

"You! Brag unblushingly! Xu Hui said angrily, in his opinion, Li Wei is standing and talking without back pain, it doesn't fall on you, you say beautiful things, if it falls on you, you can show me!

Well?

Xu Hui's heart moved, his expression suddenly relaxed a lot, and he snorted coldly:

"Hmph, so Master Li has a high opinion? That official is going to ask for advice! ”

Li Wei sneered in his heart, of course I have a high opinion, otherwise what would I do if I came out to kill you.

Zhu Yuanzhang also set his eyes on Li Wei, and urged unhappily: "If you have something to say, say it quickly!" ”

After speaking, I added the second half of the sentence in my heart: If there is a fart, let it go!

Seeing Li Wei's appearance, he immediately understood, this stinky boy must have already thought of a way, and only took it out for him now, it really makes sense!

Li Wei bowed and waved his hand and said: "Your Majesty, the reason why the old banknotes are discounted is because the previous dynasty repeatedly discounted the banknotes when changing the version, resulting in damage to the people, and they will immediately rush to exchange the old banknotes when they see the new banknotes. ”

"Hmph, we have already made it clear, regardless of the Chinese book and household department, why are the people still like this?" Zhu Yuanzhang frowned and asked.

Of course, he also knew about the banknote law of the former Yuan, and he did not plan to be like the former Yuan, printing a new banknote to discount the old banknote, and this treasure banknote change was also because he abolished the Zhongshu Province and the adjustment of the imperial court structure, and only made the modification, and there was no intention to issue a new version of the banknote.

Li Wei was silent for a while, to put it bluntly, the credibility of the imperial court is not enough, and the people do not believe in his words as an emperor, after all, the Ming Dynasty has only been established for more than ten years, and the people who live now still have the shadow of the former Yuan reign in their hearts.

However, it is not easy to say this directly, especially now in front of the Manchu civil and military.

After thinking about it for a while, Li Weicai said with a smile: "Your Majesty, the Ming Dynasty has only been established for more than ten years, and most of the current people of the Ming Dynasty are people who have lived for half their lives under the tyranny of the former Yuan, and the banknote law of the former Yuan has a deep-rooted influence on them, and if you want to change, you must spend a lot of effort and time to correct their misconceptions!" ”

Although Li Wei's words were tactful, Zhu Yuanzhang and Xu Hui and most of the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty could also hear it, and he said that the emperor's words alone were not enough to win the trust of the people of the world.

"Does Lord Li mean by this that His Majesty's holy decree is not enough to convince the people?"

Zhao Jun rushed out of class to speak, picking out the meaning of Li Wei's words.

Li Weiguan's reinstatement is the biggest threat to Zhao Juncai, who is also a waiter in the Ministry of Works, and he is still waiting for Xue Xiang to take over after retirement.

The others who wanted to speak saw someone taking the lead, so they all stopped first, looked at Li Wei, and immediately followed to refute when he made a mistake in his words.

Li Wei turned his head to look at Zhao Jun, the corners of his mouth moved slightly, he was still not used to the intrigue in the court, like his words, the meaning is indeed this meaning, and there is nothing wrong, but if you really admit it, it will not work.

In the feudal era, even if the emperor's words were obviously farting, you couldn't think it stinks. Even a fool X like Baozong, the courtiers can't say his sins, let alone Zhu Yuanzhang.

When Li Wei hesitated and didn't know how to speak, Zhu Yuanzhang, who was caring for his son-in-law, had already glanced at Zhao Jun coldly, and opened his mouth to scold:

"We know if our oracle works, we don't need you to remind us!"

Of course he understands Li Wei's words, and he also agrees that this is the reality, and it is not something that these Wenchen can change with a few sycophants.

Zhao Jun was shocked, and hurriedly bowed his head and said, "It's the minister who talks too much, Your Majesty forgives you." ”

"Hmph, step aside!"

Zhu Yuanzhang is still waiting to listen to Li Wei's later methods, and he doesn't want to be led astray by these people to fight in the court.

"Yes!"

Zhao Jun bowed and retreated, and at the same time, his heart was half cold all of a sudden, looking at His Majesty's attitude, I am afraid that the next secretary of the Ministry of Industry will have nothing to do with him.

Xue Xiang next to him glanced at his old subordinate slightly, and he also sneered in his heart.

He knows very well what Li Wei's status is in His Majesty's heart, now Li Wei is in charge of everything in the Ministry of Industry, and he can't even interfere with him, an old scholar, it is estimated that he will have to vacate the land in a short time, this Zhao Jun is still delusional to compete with Li Wei for a seat, it is really wishful thinking.

Since Li Weiwei got married, Xue Xiang has almost become a salted fish book, allowing Li Wei to play freely, occasionally finding him to help him, and other times just waiting for retirement.

Thinking that Li Dawei still occupied a position when he got married, and received the gift, Xue Xiang couldn't help but show a smile of old relief.

When the others saw Zhao Jun being dismissed by a word, they all let go of their stupid thoughts and stood by honestly to listen.

"Then you say, how do you do that?"

Zhu Yuanzhang urged Li Wei.

Li Wei turned his head and arched his hand: "The minister thinks that if you want the treasure money to be stable and long-lasting, first, the bank must be set up more than one institution, so that the people can replace the faint banknotes with new banknotes as soon as possible, so as not to suffer losses after being completely damaged. ”

Li Wei actually meant to set up a bank, but at this time, even a formal bank has not yet appeared, and a sentence or two of such a bank must not be clear, so he can only use the bank as a reference to explain.

"Second, the printing of new treasure banknotes, the current Ming treasure banknotes, the volume is too large and the quality is too poor, neither convenient to carry, nor conducive to preservation, and once damaged, it may even be judged as counterfeit banknotes, the people will inevitably have a lot of concerns in their hands, if a new banknote is printed that is resistant to wear and tear, easy to preserve and easy to identify, it will inevitably make the people use it more assured."

Li Wei's sentence has two meanings, one is to criticize the poor quality of the current treasure banknotes and to replace them with new ones, and the other is the issue of law.

Xu Hui next to him heard that he had approved the current treasure banknotes for nothing, and his face suddenly became extremely ugly, the current treasure banknotes were printed by their households.

Li Wei didn't give him a chance to interject and continued:

"Third, treasure money cannot be issued indiscriminately, there must be anchors, and it must be adjusted according to the price of goods in the world, or increase or decrease, to maintain a balance."

Li Wei roughly said three of his thoughts, of course, it is definitely not clear in just a few words, he is just to attract Zhu Yuanzhang's attention, so as to have the opportunity to carefully popularize financial knowledge with Zhu Yuanzhang.

I think when he was a leek in the later life, he also stared at the K-line chart every day, and learned financial knowledge for a while, although he was cut to scream in the end, but he did learn some useful knowledge, and the money that was cheated was regarded as paying tuition, and he could only comfort himself so much.

After Li Wei's words were finished, Zhu Yuanzhang frowned when he heard it.

Among these three, he can roughly understand the first two, but he doesn't know what Li Wei means in the third.

Seeing that Zhu Yuanzhang was silent, Xu Hui took the opportunity to interject: "How can today's treasure banknotes be so unbearable as Master Li said, the banknote printing craftsmen of the banknote and paper bureau are all skilled craftsmen recruited on the basis of merit, and the material of Daming treasure banknotes is already the first class in the world!" ”

He didn't say this nonsense, of course they didn't dare to be vague about such an important thing as treasure money, and its workmanship was not unique today, it was also a very rare good product.

Li Wei smiled slightly and said lightly: "It can be better." ”

"Hmph, who could make better?" Xu Hui's face was full of disbelief.

"No, I can." Li Wei smiled humbly.

Xu Hui's face suddenly froze, thinking of Li Wei's various deeds since he entered the dynasty, it is really very possible to say that he can make a better banknote.

Suddenly, Xu Hui seemed to understand the reason why Li Wei was nosy, he wanted to seize power!

Now the copper coins are minted in the Baoyuan Bureau of the Ministry of Industry, and the banknotes are in the Treasure Banknote Lifting Division of the Ministry of Household and its subordinate banknote and paper bureaus.

Thinking of those actions of the Minghuang Chamber of Commerce, Xu Hui's heart suddenly perked, and he immediately understood the cause and effect.

"Your Majesty, the minister wants to impeach Li Wei, it was he who deliberately instructed the people of the Minghuang Chamber of Commerce to take a large amount of faint banknotes to the bank to exchange them, so that the bank did not have enough new banknotes for the people!"

Xu Hui immediately complained to Zhu Yuanzhang.

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he also raised his head and looked at Li Wei.

Li Wei didn't panic at all, and said lightly: "Why did Xu Shangshu say this?" The ones I asked people to exchange are all faint banknotes that meet the standards, although there are more, but there is no way, the business of the Minghuang Chamber of Commerce is good, and naturally it will receive a lot of faint banknotes. ”

He didn't violate the law by doing this, my own money, I can change it when I want, can you manage it?

Besides, seventy percent of it is the emperor's money, do you dare not let me change it?

Of course, Xu Hui also understood this truth, and suddenly he was speechless. (End of chapter)
