After a month, the promotion and issuance of silver coins in the capital went surprisingly smoothly.
It also caused quite a stir in the capital.
Zhu Youxiao also understood that the reason why the public accepted the silver dollar so quickly was because it was made of silver.
Moreover, Zhu Youxiao also issued a special edict to inform the people that starting from this year, the salaries of officials in the capital and the military's Xiangyin will all be distributed uniformly with silver coins and Tianqi Tongbao.
With such unremitting support and publicity, it is difficult for the Silver Dollar not to be accepted.
But the implementation of Tianqi Tongbao is much more difficult.
Most of the people who first went to the Royal Bank to exchange money were families with some property, and they mainly exchanged silver coins.
As for Tianqi Tongbao, this new small-denomination money, the target group is ordinary people.
In this era, Hukou is a big problem for ordinary people, so why would they take the risk and exchange stable currency for new money?
Of course, there are not no people who can redeem Tianqi Tongbao.
In those few months, Xu Hongru also had a rare period of leisure.
Once the Kong family is involved, this is what the local government can decide to deal with.
That house originally belonged to a small landowner. Because the White Lotus Sect looted and killed everyone there, Xu Hongru was unable to requisition it.
Yu Yanlan and Cui Yingyuan were also thinking about it before they were briefly shocked.
…………
Yu Yanlan found Liu Zongzhou and told me what I wanted to do, and used various threats and inducements, hoping to force me to obey absolutely.
Shen Yourong and Cui Yingyuan are also fools. Even trivial matters such as success or failure can leak even the slightest bit of information.
Even if it succeeds, it will be bad. If victory is not done by both sides, it will be difficult to leave a whole body.
Zhu Youxiao is not in a hurry. The issue of issuing new money to stabilize prices cannot be accomplished overnight.
"Zhu Youxiao took the official road from the capital to Jinan. It should be less than two days' journey now. At noon the day before yesterday, he should arrive in Jinan city."
It must have been under the watchful eye of so few officials that Liu Zongzhou was arrested and brought back to prison, so that everyone would have something to say.
After receiving the imperial edict to enter the capital, Liu Zongzhou rushed to the capital as quickly as possible.
After all, we are just generals, and the affairs of the government are related to us, and we will act as ordered.
Arranged in a hurry or in a hurry:
It wasn't until dawn that the final plan was made.
Before the arrest, he was taken to Jinan by Zhu Youxiao, where he was interrogated after being interviewed by all the officials.
Therefore, Yu Yanlan offered me the position of governor of Shandong, and Yu Yanlan agreed with great confidence.
After thinking for a moment, Xu Hongru asked Tiqi:
Xu Hongru, who was lying under the chair and sunbathing, heard the report in his hand and immediately stood up at the slowest speed. He straightened his clothes and hurried back to respond.
"You need to explain it to the seven generals first. Only Long Live Master and you and the other eight people know about this matter. If it really happens by accident, it's not a matter of luck. All of us will run away."
"Immediately summon all the officers and send slow horses to inform Shen Yourong and Cui Yingyuan to come quickly."
"Which way did Yu Yanlan take?"
When Liu Zongzhou arrives, he will lead a group of broken troops and intercept Yu Yanlan halfway down the road. Shen Yourong will follow closely behind and retreat to conquer.
And Xu Hongru also forgot to remind the seven people:
"Xiao Dong, Jin Yiwei is here, and there is still no letter from Lord Long Live."
Before Xu Hongru read the letter, he had no idea about Xiaozhi's plan.
After reading the contents of the letter, the seven of them looked at each other in confusion. From each other's eyes and expressions, they all felt surprised and disbelieving.
The governor's Yamen and the Chief Secretary's Yamen must have reported the matter to the court together.
"It is possible to change the plan, to act without permission, or to delay and leak the news, causing the matter to be exposed."
After only staying in the capital for one night, he left for Shandong without stopping on the seventh day with the imperial edict and appointment documents.
Xu Hongru then took out two sealed letters from his arms and handed them to Qi Ren:
It was just a soft tone to make the seven people remember the content of the letter and just follow His Majesty's instructions to get things done.
Looking at the reactions of the seven people, Xu Hongru did not explain anything to us.
Yu Yanlan also gave me enough face to meet me personally in Qianqing Palace.
The Kong family, this is a special family. This is a small family that has been inherited for thousands of years since the Zhou Dynasty.
"General Cao, General Shen, that is the letter your Majesty sent to the seven of them."
The arrival of the Jinyi Guard Tiqi made Xu Hongru's bad days come back again.
After intercepting and killing, Cui Yingyuan would lead troops to garrison on the grounds that there were no remnants of the White Lotus Cult far away in Jinan, so as to pave the way first and make it more reasonable for Yu Yanlan to intercept and kill Zhu Youxiao.
That is a huge honor for a civil servant.
As a Shandong native, I feel intimately the transcendent status of the Kong family in the local area.
I must be someone who knows the rules and is willing to spend money, so I will set up a few tables, and a group of people will drink and talk, flatter each other, and displease the new chief officer.
The next thing is related to us. We only need to ensure that Liu Zongzhou and other thieves reach the capital alive.
According to the emperor's wishes, Liu Zongzhou would be arrested in public on the day Zhu Youxiao resigned, and the fuss would be made known to everyone.
Cui Yingyuan had to rush back to his small camp immediately to gather his troops and march to Jinan.
…………
At that time, as long as Liu Zongzhou insists that the Kong family is behind the scenes, the matter will be half done.
Because according to the unspoken rules of officialdom, whenever a chief official takes office in a certain place, the local officials must retreat to greet him.
The eight people were involved in discussions and deliberations all night long on how to ensure that Yu Yanlan could be properly arrested in public.
Some people were greedy for cheap, or were smart, and they plucked up the courage to become the first to enjoy the dividends.
Although he was not rushed in two days, Xu Hongru was still not confident that he could complete that small task.
Even if we are two well-educated generals, we still have the status and influence of Saint Hu Kong.
Due to time constraints, the eight of them took a break even after staying up all night.
At present, his priority is still the Kong family in Qufu. As long as the Kong family is exterminated, he will not have to worry about money and food.
The same is true for Yu Yanlan. My step is particularly critical. I have to explore bad places and prepare for bad things in advance.
After all, using Tianqi Tongbao to purchase goods from the Royal Chamber of Commerce costs a lot more than the old money.
Of course, I was quite satisfied with the fact that he fed and drank so much that he supported a group of White Lotus Cult thieves headed by Liu Zongzhou.
In a closed room, Xu Hongru, Shen Yourong, and Cui Yingyuan finally met.
Cui Yingyuan swallowed in disbelief.
"This time you need the full cooperation of the seven generals, but what kind of discount should I give you?"
Before nightfall, the house in the countryside started to function normally.
But the one who arrived in Shandong slower than Zhu Youxiao was the Jinyi Guardi Cavalry who traveled day and night.
