After having enough wine and food, Zhu Yuanzhang lay back on the couch, then looked at Xiao Han again, and said with a slow smile: "Before you came, the boss had already told us about the fold you handed in today. , it’s just the primary election, so we won’t bother with it and wait until your review is completed before submitting it.”
"Uh uh..."
"According to the order."
Xiao Han is really a little helpless, but who makes Lao Zhu the emperor, he can't afford to offend him, otherwise, he will be scolded now.
"What, you kid are still not happy?"
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Xiao Han's somewhat gloomy expression and suddenly said cheerfully.
"Sir, do you think this list can be collected easily?"
"Weichen mobilized all the guards in the mansion, and after assessment and review, we came up with this preliminary list. It was not easy."
Xiao Han didn't hide it, but shrugged his shoulders and said.
As a minister, what he says must be mixed with truth and falsehood. Otherwise, it will be full of loopholes. Not only will he fail to make Zhu Yuanzhang smile, but he may also offend Zhu Yuanzhang. Therefore, what Xiao Han said this time was a lie.
Of course, it was not entirely a lie, but he just wanted to let Lao Zhu know that he, Xiao Han, really worked hard for the court and the Hongwu Ceremony, and did not show off.
Moreover, even if what Xiao Han said was a lie, Lao Zhu also took it seriously. After all, such a trivial matter was not a government matter of the court, so he would not go into it in depth.
"The prince is truly blessed to have you in the future."
Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at Xiao Han approvingly, nodded again.
After all, Lao Zhu was innocent and praised Xiao Han again.
The corners of Zhu Biao's mouth twitched slightly as he praised him.
Blessing?
I am really convinced!
Others can't understand Xiao Han's operations, how can Zhu Biao not?
Also, this morning, Zhu Biao and Xiao Han were drinking tea together. Moreover, when Zhu Biao left, Xiao Han was still sleeping soundly, so Xiao Han was exhausted!
"The superior is extremely complimentary."
"Wei Chen is really ashamed."
Xiao Han is still humble and polite.
He didn't notice Zhu Biao's helplessness at all.
On one side is his father, on the other side is his brother.
The fight between the two of them, whether they are brothers or sons, how could Zhu Biao not understand that this is a wave of extreme pulling and psychological games, but these are not the point. The point is that Zhu Biao is caught in this Between the two, it is somewhat miserable.
"No more catty stuff."
"Now that the preliminary list for the Hongwu Ceremony has come out."
"Should you tell us how you plan to raise the money?"
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the maid beside him and waved gently. The maid came over and pinched Zhu Yuanzhang's legs. There was also a pleasant smile on Lao Zhu's face. Then, he looked at Asked Xiao Han.
"Enlightenment to the superior."
"Weichen has no intention of raising any money."
Xiao Han, indeed an old bachelor, shook his head and said.
Zhu Biao, Zhu Yuanzhang, and Queen Ma were stunned to see this!
It was quite pleasant to say it at that time, but if you regret it now, it might be too late, right?
As expected, Lao Zhu's eyes became a little gloomy for a moment, and then he narrowed his eyes again and looked at Xiao Han and said: "So, are you kidding us?"
"Even if Wei Chen has ten lives, he doesn't have the guts to joke with his superiors."
Xiao Han still shook his head.
This made Zhu Biao, who originally wanted to speak for Xiao Han, froze in place again.
Queen Ma glanced at Xiao Han angrily.
This little clever guy has been playing tricks on others since he was a child, and he’s still here now?
"Don't be ridiculous. If you fart, hurry up."
Zhu Yuanzhang breathed a sigh of relief, his expression returned to normal and he smiled and cursed.
"I have a plan that can make a thousand-year-old dark room illuminate with just one light."
Xiao Han confidently raised his eyes, looked at Zhu Yuanzhang, and bowed slightly.
"What's the meaning?"
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Xiao Han a little puzzled and asked.
"What does this have to do with silver?"
Zhu Biao also looked at Xiao Han with some confusion and asked.
A thousand-year-old darkroom can be illuminated by just one light.
I'm afraid it's inappropriate to use it here, right?
"Haha, Your Majesty, Your Highness the Crown Prince, I have a question."
"From the end of the Yuan Dynasty to the third year of the founding of the Ming Dynasty."
"What currency is used by the imperial court and the common people?"
Xiao Han smiled mysteriously, then looked at Zhu Biao and Zhu Yuanzhang again and asked.
"Are you asking nonsense?"
"Of course it is mainly copper coins and silver, supplemented by gold."
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Xiao Han angrily and said directly.
But what Lao Zhu said was not entirely correct, and he even put gold on his face crazily. In the early days of Hongwu, the court and people used copper coins the most.
Because, at this time, the reserves of gold and silver in the Ming Dynasty were pitifully small. It was extremely short of silver and gold. After all, who didn’t know that the official salaries and army pay of the Hongwu Dynasty were all based on grain? Come to settle.
In addition, the national treasury was empty. After two years, Lao Zhu couldn't bear it any longer, so he opened a Ming Dynasty Baoqian. In the end, because he couldn't control it, the system of Ming Baoqian completely collapsed and became worthless.
But thinking about it, Lao Zhu can’t be entirely blamed. After all, Lao Zhu is a bitter person. He is afraid of poverty in this life, and it is normal to count money printing machines crazily. But this time, with Xiao Han, Then Lao Zhu can't play like this!
"We won't mention gold and silver for now."
"Let's talk about the most circulated copper coins in the hands of the people."
"This is the base currency for my Ming transactions."
"Whether it is common people or merchants, all transactions, except for the equal exchange of goods, are basically conducted in copper coins, right?"
But who made Zhu Yuanzhang his own boss? Naturally, Xiao Han couldn't tell the truth, so he cleared his throat again, looked at Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao and asked.
"Um."
"Currency transactions have been used for thousands of years, not just in the Ming Dynasty, but also in all dynasties. There is no longer any controversy."
Zhu Biao nodded slightly, and he had loved reading since he was a child. How could he not understand such a simple truth, but he was still a little curious, what did Xiao Han want to say?
"right!"
"This is a currency trading system that has been passed down for thousands of years."
"Then why can't we work around it?"
"Like your Majesty."
"A commoner ascends the world, sits and lies in all the nine states, and no one in the world dares to disrespect him."
"Then why can't I, the Ming Dynasty, have my own currency trading system?"
Xiao Han's voice was sonorous and powerful, and his expression was extremely serious and upright.
Zhu Yuanzhang was stunned for a while, but for some reason, a restlessness suddenly surged in his heart!
"He is not a commoner, at most he is a gangster."
And at this moment of intense fervor and solemnity, Queen Ma's voice of causing trouble sounded, and Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes widened. There was no need to talk about this matter anymore!
