After handing Zhu Zhanji to the palace attendants, Zhu Di simply left the dragon chair, pulled up a stool and sat across from Chen Kan.
"I only want to ask you two things. When will the Royal Bank you mentioned be able to do it? In addition, will this bank be owned by my internal treasury or the household department in the future?"
Facing Zhu Di's question, Chen Kan thought for a moment, and then mused: "If we only temporarily choose the capital as a pilot, we can see the effect in about three months.
As for whether the bank should be returned to the national treasury or the internal treasury, I think it is neither appropriate. "
"What's wrong?"
Zhu Di felt that he frowned more times today than he had done all year.
But there was nothing he could do. He really didn't understand the messy professional terms in Chen Kan's mouth.
Chen Kan paused and said: "If the bank is returned to the inner treasury, I am afraid that over time, the bank will become the private property of the royal family. If this is the case, how can the common people fight against the royal family?
As for the treasury, I still feel that the role of the treasury should be to become a solid backing for the country, rather than to participate in specific operations. Your Majesty also knows that once any yamen is involved with money, it is easy to be sloppy... ..”
Chen Kan told Zhu Di his worries without any concealment, because it was unnecessary.
The Ming Dynasty is the Ming Dynasty for people all over the world, but it is also the Ming Dynasty for Zhu Di.
As the top leader of this country, Zhu Di must be aware of some hidden dangers.
Especially things like banks are related to the pocketbooks of people all over the world.
If it is not done well, it will easily make the royal family rich and the people miserable.
Since Zhu Di saw the harm Baochao brought to the people, he had the idea of banning Baochao.
So at least it shows that he really has the people of the world in his eyes.
What Chen Kan had to do was to tell him all the hidden dangers and then let him make the choice.
Following Chen Kan's words, Zhu Di also quickly thought through the joints.
He nodded slightly: "That makes sense."
Chen Kan’s words are easy to understand because they belong to the political category.
As an emperor, Zhu Di knew better what it meant when a new thing came from existence. It meant that there was another interest group in the world.
Even the royal family can hardly guarantee that they will not be greedy when their interests reach a certain level.
He can ensure that he is not greedy, and he can even ensure that his son and grandson are not greedy.
But what about his grandson’s grandson?
If a prodigal son appears, this matter may directly overturn the Ming Dynasty.
After pondering for a moment, Zhu Di said calmly: "In that case, let's put this matter aside for now. The most important thing at the moment is to make the things you mentioned first. As for the rest, the ship will naturally go straight to the bridge. The Ming Dynasty is so big. , capable people and strangers are like crucian carps crossing the river, they will always find a solution by then."
After all, Zhu Di was a peerless emperor with unparalleled courage. It was not his style to stop eating due to choking like Kang Mazi.
"I will give you three months. After three months, I will see a new type of treasure banknote that can replace the currency circulating in the market appear in front of me."
The matter was raised by Chen Kan, and naturally it needed Chen Kan to resolve it.
Zhu Di also wanted to see if what he said could become true.
"Your Majesty, don't worry. I will never show any slightest care."
Chen Kan stood solemnly and bowed his hands to Zhu Di seriously.
Improved treasure banknotes and implemented the gold, silver and copper standards, established an unbreakable monetary system for the Ming Dynasty, and standardized the Ming Dynasty's economic system.
This is what Chen Kan will do after coming to Ming Dynasty, which can truly change the development process of Ming Dynasty history.
It can be said that this matter is related to whether Chen Kan can truly gain a foothold in the court in the future.
Even if Zhu Di didn't urge him, Chen Kan wouldn't be sneaky about this kind of thing.
After the matter was discussed, the atmosphere in the hall was somewhat silent.
Zhu Di suddenly stared at Chen Kan's face as if he was going crazy.
The strange look in his eyes made Chen Kan tremble for a while.
After staring at Chen Kan quietly for a while, Zhu Di asked: "Chen Kan, I'm very curious, how do you know these things?"
"Well..."
Chen Kan didn't expect that Zhu Di would suddenly ask this question. He was about to blame Fang Xiaoru when Zhu Di suddenly said leisurely: "Don't tell me that these things were taught to you by Mr. Fang?"
"Your Majesty, I learned these things from my teacher..."
"You fart, do you think I'm being fooled?"
Zhu Di simply didn't believe that an upright gentleman like Fang Xiaoru could teach a badass like Chen Kan.
After swearing, Zhu Di suddenly threatened: "You should think about it before you speak. You must be very clear about the consequences of bullying the emperor."
"ah?"
Chen Kan was dumbfounded. When he saw Zhu Di's eyes that were half suspicious and three half threatening, his mind was a little confused.
Zhu Di, what does this mean?
Is there still no way to escape this day after all?
Zhu Di stared at Chen Kan's face without blinking.
He was really curious about where Chen Kan got all his abilities.
He had investigated Chen Kan's past and found that before he ascended the throne, although Chen Kan had been taught by Fang Xiaoru, a scholar leader, there was nothing outstanding in his past resume.
Chen Kan started to explode. After he entered Beijing, he first persuaded Fang Xiaoru to join him and made him start to pay attention to this young man.
But what really made him feel that this young man was a useful talent was that he cooperated with him to defeat the King of Jin, Zhu Jixi.
In the matter of reducing the vassal state, Chen Kan's performance can be described as perfect.
What followed was a series of things that Chen Kan did. In just over half a year, a marquis was stolen from him.
More importantly, he found that Chen Kan seemed to be able to predict everything he was going to do, and could always give him a perfect answer when he encountered something he couldn't solve.
Could it be that Chen Kan had the ability to predict the future?
To be honest, Zhu Di suspected that Chen Kan was no longer a matter of one or two days.
In the past, there was just no suitable opportunity, but today I happened to have time, and Zhu Di didn't mind spending a little time figuring it out.
Chen Kan's thoughts were a little disordered. He was trying to make up some kind of excuse that would not only reasonably explain the origin of his ability, but would not make Zhu Di feel weird and take him to Qintian Prison for sectioning and study.
After thinking for a long time, Chen Kan suddenly asked Zhu Di: "Your Majesty, if, if I tell you, everything I know now was realized by myself, would you believe it?"
When Zhu Di heard this, he was stunned for a moment, then his eyes filled with anger: "What do you think?"
Chen Kan: "..."
Judging from Zhu Di's look, it was obvious that he didn't believe it.
If you don’t believe it, don’t believe it. Why are you scaring me?
Seeing that he couldn't be fooled, Chen Kan put on a wry smile on his face, cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, forgive me. Actually, I don't know why I suddenly understand these things, but it's strange that I do understand."
"Impossible, I never believe that there is such a thing in this world."
Seeing that his words were rejected by Zhu Di, Chen Kan didn't know how to explain.
Do you want to tell Zhu Di that he has traveled from later generations?
Silence, long silence.
Seeing this, Zhu Di knew that he couldn't get any useful information out of Chen Kan.
Although he was very unwilling, he had to give up and said: "Forget it, after all, you are my minister of the Ming Dynasty, and I am not a narrow-minded king of Jie and Zhou. As long as you are willing to serve the Ming Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty will not be able to tolerate you as a Chen." Kan, go ahead."
"Yes, I will retire."
Chen Kan responded and walked backwards out of the hall.
After walking out of Fengtian Hall, he ran away.
Outside Hongwu Gate, the groom sat on the carriage shaft and yawned boredly.
Then he saw his Lord Marquis hurriedly out of Hongwu Gate and trotting towards him as if he was being chased by a vicious dog.
"Master Hou, what's wrong?"
Chen Kan quickly got into the carriage, stopped and said, "Nothing, go back home."
Sitting in the carriage, Chen Kan frowned tightly.
He considers himself to have been very low-key during the time he came to Ming Dynasty, and has never revealed his prophetic ability in front of outsiders.
Everything I do, I try to find a reasonable explanation for.
But now it seems that what he did still aroused Zhu Di's suspicion.
I don’t know if there is anyone in the world who is born aware of it. Chen Kan has never seen it with his own eyes.
But he knew his own situation too well.
If others knew that he came from six hundred years in the future, what awaited him would most likely not be promotion and wealth, but a butcher's knife.
Humans are social creatures. Those who are half a step ahead of others are geniuses, and those who are one step ahead of others are aliens. The most intolerable thing among the crowd is aliens.
Even if the thoughts in your mind can make the times jump quickly.
Therefore, Chen Kan is a little panicked now.
...
After Chen Kan left the palace, Zhu Di changed into casual clothes and left the palace.
It's just that the two of them have different directions and different purposes.
Chen Kan planned to go home and make some preparations. Once one day, Zhu Di planned to capture him and slice him up for study, he planned to escape to the sea as quickly as possible.
The direction Zhu Di went to was a Buddhist temple called Tianjie Temple.
As for why Zhu Di went to the Buddhist temple, it was only because the name of the Buddhist temple's presiding officer was Daoyan.
Zhu Di's decision to leave the palace was a temporary decision.
So he only took a dozen followers with him.
Arriving at the entrance of Tianjie Temple and asking his entourage to guard outside the temple, Zhu Di walked straight towards the Main Hall.
Dao Yan was still wearing black monk robes and meditating in the Main Hall.
"gentlemen."
Arriving at the gate, Zhu Di gently woke up Dao Yan, who was meditating on Buddhism.
Dao Yan opened his eyes, looked back at Zhu Di, smiled and nodded to him.
But the sound of chanting Buddhist scriptures never stopped.
Zhu Di didn't rush him, just stood quietly at the door of the hall and waited.
In the entire Ming Dynasty, only the monk in the main hall could feel at ease and let Zhu Di, the king of a country, wait willingly.
Zhu Di raised his head and looked at the majestic Buddha statue. The Buddha's eyes were full of compassion. Listening to the chanting sound coming from Daoyan's mouth, his originally irritable mood miraculously calmed down.
