"Ha! You kid is trying to hide something!"
In Zuifengxuan, Li Zexuan looked at Li Ke and said with some humor: "I said before that you are not allowed to ask servants for help based on your status. Now that you are asking Qingque's people to help you put money to earn interest, aren't you asking for help?" Can anyone help?”
"Uh, Chief Shan..."
Li Ke's face froze and he was speechless.
But I heard Li Zexuan say again: "However, I am very pleased that you know how to increase revenue and reduce expenditure. Earlier you said that it is inconvenient to carry five hundred guan with you, which is not unreasonable, but we people in Yanhuang Academy must solve problems when we encounter them. When this is over, Xiaoke, please think carefully about the solution to this problem. If you can solve it smoothly, you will create an era and your name will go down in history!"
Although "it is inconvenient to carry five hundred guan of money" is just an excuse made by Li Kexin, this is indeed a problem in the Tang Dynasty. The bulky currency will not only affect commercial transactions, but also affect the economic development of a country. The national power of the Song Dynasty was not as good as that of the Tang Dynasty, but why was its economy the largest in ancient China? It was because banknotes (Jiaozi) replaced bulky metal currencies, which greatly promoted the prosperity of domestic commerce. At that time, the commercial tax collected by the Song Dynasty court every year far exceeded the agricultural tax!
Li Ke's temporary excuse reminded Li Zexuan of the Datang financial plan he had been planning to do before - banknotes and banks, both of which must be done in the future!
"Create an era? Leave a mark in history?"
Li Ke originally thought he would be reprimanded, but he never expected to hear such a shocking event from Li Zexuan's mouth. He breathed a little quickly, "Chief, what method is so powerful? Can you leave your name in history directly? ?”
Li Zexuan smiled and said: "Then you have to think about it yourself! Come to me after you think about it!"
After that, he left with his hands behind his back, leaving Li Ke stunned.
"Hey! Xiao Ke, Xiao Ke? Don't think about it, eat first, you have to work in the afternoon!"
When Li Tai saw that his brother seemed to have lost his soul, he pushed Li Ke's arm and said.
"Oh oh..."
Li Ke came to his senses and then continued to put rice into his mouth...

"Tie Zhu, open the door quickly! People from the Nuantang Foundation are here to give you a coal stove!"
In the afternoon, in Maojiazhuang, Xinfeng County outside Chang'an City, four or five students from Yanhuang Academy drove a carriage, followed a burly middle-aged man, and knocked on a shabby courtyard door.
"Mao Lizheng, our captain said, we are sending warmth! You can't shout about sending coal stoves!"
It turned out that this middle-aged man was Li Zheng from Maojiazhuang. After hearing him shout this, the students behind him quickly corrected him.
"Haha! Okay, okay! That's called sending warmth! As expected of a scholar, he talks differently from the people in our village!"
Mao Lizheng was not angry, but smiled honestly, and then he shouted into the dilapidated yard: "Hey! Tie Zhu, open the door quickly! Someone is here to bring you warmth!"
A skinny little girl came out of the yard. In this winter, she was only wearing a few single clothes, and they were in tatters. If you look carefully, you can see her legs are shaking.
"Li Zheng, you are here!"
The little girl opened the courtyard door, said hello to Mao Lizheng, and then timidly began to look at the students behind Mao Lizheng.
"Ha! Da Ya, where are your father and your mother?"
Mao Li was walking in with the students from the academy. He looked around and then asked.
"Li Zheng, my mother went to the mountains to collect firewood, and my father, my father had a leg problem again two days ago, and he is still in bed!"
The little girl replied.
"What? Tiezhu's legs don't work anymore? Alas! It's hard to feel sick in this winter!"
Mao Li was stunned for a moment. He sighed in surprise and said to the academy students behind him: "Hey, some of you guys don't know that this Tiezhu accidentally fell and became lame while hunting in the mountains in the early years. When it’s cold, you can’t get out of bed, so in autumn and winter, it’s usually Daya who’s busy working inside and outside the house! Oh! Let’s not talk about this for now, let’s go in the house! Daya, go and boil some hot water. The people who came today are all Wenquxings! They are bringing coal to your family...and warmth!"
Having said that, Mao Li was greeting the group of Yanhuang Academy students to go inside.
"Mao Lizheng, please go in first! Let's go and remove the coal stove and briquettes from the car!"
one student said.
Only then did Mao Li realize that there was a car of "warmth" behind him. He patted his head and said, "Hey! Look at my memory! I almost forgot about this! These guys are all literary stars. Where can I do such rough work in the world? Come in and rest quickly, I'll do it! I'll do it! I can't make a mistake!"
Although Yanhuang Academy is located in Lantian County, its reputation is so great that no one knows about it, let alone Xinfeng County, even in prefectures and counties hundreds of miles away! The tall and splendid building of Yanhuang Academy has become a fairy palace on earth due to word of mouth. Students who can get into Yanhuang Academy are naturally Wenquxing descended to earth!
Moreover, Li Zexuan, the headmaster of Yanhuang Academy, was an upright man and had always taken good care of the people in the fiefdom. His reputation for benevolence was well known to the world. Therefore, among the people, people are very respectful to Li Zexuan and Li Zexuan's students!
"No! Mao Lizheng! Before going down the mountain, the mountain leader told us that we must carry it ourselves and cannot rely on others. Thank you for your kindness!"
The students in the academy quickly stopped him.
"...Oh! Okay! In this case, I can't break the rules of your academy, but you guys with delicate skin and tender flesh, oh, no, I mean you guys who have been studying all year round, how can you move this? ?”
"Haha! Don't worry, Mao Lizheng. We moved these things up ourselves, so we can naturally move them down too!"
Half a quarter of an hour later, the students moved a coal stove and fifty pieces of briquettes into the dilapidated house. After patiently teaching the little girl how to use the coal stove and repeatedly telling her to pay attention to ventilation when burning coal for heating, the students said goodbye and left under the bright eyes of the little girl and the endless gratitude of the man named Tiezhu. .
They still have to hurry up and go to the next one!
"Big brother, big brother! Wait! One of you has lost his wallet!"
But who would have thought that the group of students had not gone very far when the little girl chased after them again, holding an exquisite black money bag in her hand. The howling north wind messed up her hair and turned her little girl red. Face, but still did not stop her!
"Hoo~ho~! Big brother, here, which one of you left your wallet in the house?"
