"Big brother!" Mu Hibiscus saw the eldest brother come in, and hurriedly said hello, it was not that she didn't want to talk to Kong Shen, but it was too embarrassing.

"Why did you come here today. Shi Zi said, moving a chair and sitting on the edge of the hibiscus, looking at Kong Shen with a wary expression.

"I'm not busy in the hospital, so I'm here!" Hibiscus said, placing the food box on the table and opening it, and the smell of stewed meat came to his face.

"Ho! Shizi smelled this taste and moved his index finger, the Northern Song Dynasty forbade the slaughter of cattle, so most of the ordinary people eat chicken meat, and pork despite Mr. Dongpo's advocacy, but after all, it is only popularized in the upper class, for ordinary people, high-end meat is mutton, hibiscus This is to celebrate her eldest brother's inauguration as Mr. Academy, specially bought mutton in the market.

"How did you learn how to eat mutton?" Kong Shen pursed his lips, very disdainful, he has always hated meat or something, the only thing he likes to eat is the meat sandwich bun made in Longxi.

"What does it have to do with Jinren, I want to eat this thing if I don't have money!" Mu Hibiscus didn't understand the meaning of Kong Shen's words, and replied casually, "Gongzi Kong, you come to eat too!"

"What do you know?! This mutton has a great relationship with the Jin people, and it is also inseparable from the Khitan people. "Kong Shen has lived for so long, so he has naturally seen everything, and he naturally knows much more about some of the past events of the Great Song Dynasty than hibiscus.

"Oh, sir, tell me about it. Shi Zi took his words very face-savingly, Kong Shen was very useful, and then he said.

"Don't look at this little piece of mutton, this is a witness to the changes of your Great Song Dynasty to the present. Kong Shen leaned up, touched a pair of chopsticks, picked up a piece of mutton and said, "During the Jingde period of Zhenzong, the Khitans led the troops south, Zhao Heng drove the expedition in person, personally went to the front line to supervise the battle, the morale of the soldiers soared, and he defeated the Khitans in one fell swoop. Kong Shen said with a wistful face, for him, the Zhenzong and Renzong dynasties of the Great Song Dynasty were the most satisfactory to him.

"300,000?!So many, since the Khitan people collect so many coins from us every year, why can't they beat the gold people in the end." Hibiscus's mind spun quickly, and he asked a question.

"There are a lot of issues involved, Shizi, have you read Huan Kuan?" Kong Shen put down the chopsticks in his hand, took a sip of tea, and asked Shizi.

"Naturally, I have read this, and I have also taken this mile in the current affairs of the imperial examination. "If you want to talk about grasping medicine and looking at prescriptions, ten Chen Shizi can't catch up with one Chen Shijing, but when it comes to reading, then Chen Shizi is absolutely powerful.

"So you should know how important coinage is to the economic operation of a country, and it is precisely because Sang Hongyang played the spirit of the 'Salt and Iron Conference' and returned the coinage rights to the central government, so that the Han Dynasty became truly strong. Kong Shen said this, and Mu Hibiscus and Shi Zi were both thoughtful.

"In other words, there is a problem with the minting of the Khitans?" asked Hibiscus tentatively, she had been in the hospital all day, and she really didn't know much about these things.

"It's not just a problem, the Khitan people can say that they don't have their own coinage, they just use the currency of the Great Song Dynasty to circulate, and the merchants in the north don't recognize the coins issued by their Khitans at all, where do the Khitans understand these economic ways, so they acquiesce to the merchants' practices, but the result of this is ......" Before Kong Shen finished speaking, Mu Hibiscus rushed to say.

"As a result, the currency value of the Khitan people is completely controlled by our Great Song Dynasty, and our Great Song Dynasty sells a lot of things to them, silk, tea, and grain, and our demand for them is only horses, cattle and sheep. Mu Hibiscus said methodically, and after speaking, he looked at Kong Shen with joy, like a child waiting for an adult's praise.

"Yes, and this is not a star and a half, as far as I know, only from the beginning of the second year of Jingde to the beginning of the third year of Jingde, the money that the Great Song Dynasty earned from the Khitans was more than ten times that of the 300,000-year-old coins. Kong Shen said with an indifferent face, but Shizi who listened to it was very shocked, first he was amazed that the famous people of the Great Song Dynasty had such a witty strategy, to retreat as advance, to enrich the country, and then, he was amazed that Kong Shen knew so much secret history, and he also analyzed the head of the Tao, but after thinking about it, he lived thousands of years, and he was also relieved.

"Kong Gongzi knows a lot. Mu Hibiscus looked at Kong Shen, his eyes were full of small stars, Shi Zi watched from the side, and said in his heart, yes, he fell into another one!

"What's this, I'm still ...... Liu Qi" Kong Shen has always been a stinky narcissist, and there are not many people who have contact with him, Mu Hibiscus This girl is smart and clever, and she is very pleasing, and when she praises him like this, she is directly a little fluttery, and she begins to lose her words.

"Ahem, cough, cough!" Shi Zi pretended to cough a few times on the side, reminding Kong Shen, be cautious, be cautious!

Kong Shen listened, felt a cold sweat in his heart, and said secretly, almost said that he had leaked, this Liu Qida is called Liu Yong, he is a famous prodigal literati in Zhenzong, he takes himself in and out of various teaching workshops and Qinglou all day long, if this is missing, then it will be wow!

"Liu Qi, who is that, Gongzi Kong, why don't you let Gongzi Kong!" Mu Hibiscus thought that Kong Shen was going to talk about something funny, and she thought that her eldest brother's temper to protect her had come up again, so she didn't let Kong Gongzi speak.

"The girl's family, who knows less, eats meat and eats meat. Shi Zi hurriedly prevaricated, these two in front of him, a small ancestor, and one is a true ancestor, he can't afford to mess with any of them!

Hibiscus could only eat the meat stupidly, still curious.

Who is Liu Qi?
