During the late talk that night, both sides took their own needs and gained a lot. The Hulien people established the direction of future financial reform based on Changsun Kangning's financial reform plan, while Changsun Kangning and the wealthy businessmen represented by him obtained political resources. In the future, they will obtain immeasurable wealth from this political resource.

After dawn, Luo Sinan urgently summoned Hu Lie to discuss financial reform plans with some important members in Beijing. Changsun Kangning urgently summoned members of the United Chamber of Commerce in Beijing to discuss how to take advantage of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity before him to quickly develop industry and commerce and seize the initiative, while the reform of the Jiaozi system became the first choice goal.

Dong Xiaochou, Huo Liuge, Chai Yun, Hu Tu, Yuanye, Fan Zhichang, Yan Qing, Chu Xiaoyao, Fang Jin, Wang Dazhong and other ministers of civil and military affairs were shocked when they heard that the Luo family and Changsun Kangning were married. The most shocked one was probably Dong Xiaochou and Chai Yun. No matter what, they did not expect that after just one night, things would have been earth-shaking. This shows Luo Sinan's strong determination to implement financial reforms.

Luo Sinan came up with a specific implementation plan for financial reform. One step is the reform of the monetary system, unifying the currency into iron coins, and forcibly implement it, requiring all localities to complete the exchange rate; the second step is the monetization of administrative expenses of the inner government, the imperial government, and the local government; the third step is the monetization of official salaries; the fourth step is the reform of the tax system, the monetization of land and taxes, and the monetization of grain; the ultimate goal is the monetization of taxes and labor.

The reform of the monetary system is divided into three steps. One step is to use iron coins as the unified circulation currency, supplemented by iron coins as the standard of paper money; the second step is to use copper coins as the unified circulation currency as the standard of paper money as the standard of paper money as the standard of paper money as the standard of paper money; the ultimate goal is to use silver as the unified circulation currency and supplemented by silver as the standard of paper money as the standard of paper money.

Financial reform and official positions and military reform are carried out simultaneously, complementing each other.

The introduction of this plan made Dong Xiaochou, Chai Yun and other ministers who were seeking stability as one and maintained a conservative reform view breathed a sigh of relief. No matter what, Luo Sinan and Huang She, the radicals in the reform did not lose their minds. In the end, they chose a relatively stable reform strategy, unifying the currency first and consolidating the foundation of financial reform first.

After two days of intense discussion, Luo Sinan's plan for financial reform was recognized by the ministers of Huliu.

On the first day of the second month, Luo Sinan urgently wrote to Li Hu and reported the reform plan in detail. In fact, this was already a decisive action and then a report.

On the third day of the second month, Privy Councilor Dong Xiaochou and Deputy Prime Minister Huang She submitted this reform policy and submitted it to the emperor and the court.

Li Gang, Li Fu, Zhao Mingcheng, Liu Fu, Zhang Xiaochun and others were shocked by the reform and the proposals. What shocked them was not Luo Sinan's major financial reform plan, but the Hu Lie Ren and the industrial and commercial interest groups represented by the United Chamber of Commerce will gradually come together through this financial reform plan and combine into a powerful force. The old bureaucratic class of the former Song Dynasty can no longer compete with them. The consequence of being unable to compete is that all reforms will be controlled by the Hu Lie Ren and the emerging industrial and commercial class, and the direction of reform will move along the route they designated, and they will obtain the best interests of the reform.

Opposition is affirmative, and the reasons for opposition are very sufficient. They pointed the contradiction to the industrial and commercial class. Monetary unity helps the development of industry and commerce, administrative expenses and official salaries monetization helps the development of industry and commerce, and the monetization of land tax and grain will still helps the development of industry and commerce. After the reform of land tax, it will inevitably be difficult to prevent the privatization of official fields, and land annexation will become more serious. The serious land annexation will push more people to towns and industry and commerce, and then eventually evolve into the national finances controlled by big landlords, big merchants, big workshop owners and big Jiaozi Merchants. This will seriously hit the values ​​of Middle-earth, causing the cart to be put before the horse. If the people do not value land, seek profits, and abandon Confucianism and go to business, then agriculture will inevitably suffer heavy damage, resulting in unstable foundation of the country's destiny and a crisis arising.

The debate has not lasted for too long, because China and Turkey have not yet been unified, and the financial reform plan has not yet been implemented. This financial reform plan is more about guiding the direction of change. Whether there is any actual operation depends on whether the future situation is suitable. In short, Luo Sinan has just designed a beautiful castle in the air, which has had a terrible psychological impact on the bureaucracy. When these people calm down, they think about it carefully, and then sneered at it, and they were too lazy to pay attention to it. The distance between reality and dreams is always out of reach.

In February, under the auspices of Prime Minister Li Gang, the deliberation hall passed a resolution to use iron coins as the unified currency and quickly implemented it after completing the exchange plan in various places.

However, many people in Chang'an know that after the reform of the unified currency is completed, a violent storm will come.

In February, Li Hu received a letter from Luo Sinan in Helan Mountain in the northwest, and Huang She and Dong Xiaochou also wrote a letter.

All three letters describe in detail the process of formulating financial reform strategies. What Li Hu did not expect was that Luo Sinan actually decided to marry Changsun Kangning. This news was very shocking to him. Luo Qinghan and Zhe Keqiu were also secretly shocked after hearing the news. It was obvious that the situation in Chang'an was changing. Luo Sinan was pushing the industrial and commercial class into the court with practical actions. The balance of power in the court would be broken, and the internal crisis was magnifying step by step.

"Master, you should return to Chang'an immediately." Zhe Keqiu advised without hesitation, "I and I stay in the northwest until the war between Hexi and Daibei ends and the northwest is completely stable, we will return to Chang'an."

Li Hu remained silent. He could not leave the northwest now. On the contrary, as the situation develops, he would have to stay in the northwest for a long time.

The reorganization of the northwest army has not been completed, and the war between Hexi and Daibei has not yet ended. In addition, the overall defense in the northwest needs to be rebuilt, which is imminent and cannot be delayed. When the territory of the northwest expands to the Western Regions and the Desert, the Western Regions will border the Xizhou Uighurs, Caotou Tatars, and Huangtou Uighurs; the desert will be adjacent to the Zubu people, the enemy liemen and the Wugu people; the northeast will face the Jurchens in a tense confrontation. In this case, the Tiger Lie Army in the northwest and the Khitan Army in the Daibei will assume the heavy responsibility of garrisoning on the border of thousands of miles. However, there are only 130,000 Tiger Lie Army in the northwest and 50,000 Khitan troops in the northwest, while Datong and Taiyuan can only retain 80,000 Tiger Lie Army. This defensive force is obviously a bit weak.

The Tiger Lie Army had only 400,000 regular troops, and these 400,000 included 50,000 Khitans. Now Li Hu used 260,000 to guard the northern border, so there were only 140,000 troops to guard the Central Plains and the southeast. The 140,000 troops were still fine. But it would not be enough to go south to pacify the southeast.

Li Hu looked at the letters on the desk and shook his head and smiled bitterly, "You all saw that the situation in Chang'an is getting more and more serious, because of financial difficulties. If we cannot quickly calm the southeast, then as time goes by, our fiscal crisis will become more and more serious, and it will drag us down alive."

Luo Qinghan sighed softly, "Under the current situation, it is obviously not a good idea to carry out financial reforms in a drastic manner." He hesitated for a moment, and then said, "In my opinion, you should return to Chang'an immediately, stabilize the situation in Chang'an first, slow down the pace of financial reforms, and alleviate the contradictions inside and outside the court."

"Chang'an is very clear about this. Neither the princess nor the prime minister will have a fierce conflict at this time." Li Hu shook his hand, "I will not be able to resolve any problems immediately. Instead, it will intensify the conflict. It is better to stay in the northwest and solve the matters in the northwest first, but relieve the worries, and then cross the river and fight the southeast with all my heart."

Luo Qinghan and Zhe Keqiu looked at each other, and their eyes showed helplessness.

"What are the plans of the Grand Marshal?" Zhe Ke asked.

"There are Yelu Mage and Tie Shuai in Daibei. Bao Shuai also returned to Taiyuan. When the Jurchens knew that we had destroyed Xixia, they would not dare to fight again, so the war on the eastern front would end soon." Li Hu looked up at the map hanging on one side and continued, "If the war in Hexi wants to end as soon as possible, two groups must be attacked in the two groups. I plan to ask the Guishou to lead the army north after the completion of the army, first capture the Yan Army Division of Heishui Town, and then directly kill Suzhou and surrounded the Dangxiang people in Ganzhou. After the Guishou and Yang Weizhong attacked in the two groups, captured Ganzhou, the army immediately advanced westward, killed Guazhou, and took out Yumen Pass, and took down the entire Hexi Corridor."

"Then the commander can return to Chang'an, right?" Zhe Keqiu asked.

Li Hu shook his head and looked at the desert on the map, "I want to go north to the desert and form an alliance with the Zubu people."

"Associate with the Bu Bu people?" Luo Qinghan asked in surprise, "What? Are you planning to join forces with the Bu people to attack the Jurchens and regain Hebei?"

"The purpose of forming an alliance with the Bu Bu people is of course to deal with the Jurchens, but I am not trying to regain Hebei, but to regain Shandong so as to quickly cut off the connection between the Jurchens and the Southeast rebels and prepare for us to attack the Southeast in a step."

Luo Qinghan looked at the map intently, probably guessing Li Hu's intention. However, is the Bubu people willing to form an alliance? Will the Jurchens escort the front of Li Hu and form an alliance with the Bubu people?

Zhe Keqiu complained secretly, so that Li Hu could not return to Chang'an until at least after autumn. Can Chang'an remain stable under the control of Luo Sinan?

"When will the Grand Marshal return to Chang'an?" Zhe Ke asked.

"Maybe, it may be autumn or winter." Li Hu said, "You go back to Chang'an first, let Mao Shuai attack Jiangnan in Jingxiang, and let Yue Shuai attack Jianghuai in the Central Plains. Luo Envoy rushed to Datong and commanded Yunzhong and Hedong to attack Hebei. Youyan's situation made the Jurchens and the southeast rebels unable to judge our next target of attack."

"When will the Grand Marshal be planning to attack Southeast?" Zhe Keqiu asked again.

Li Hu thought for a moment and said, "If everything goes well, starting this autumn, Yue Fei will first capture the Jianghuai River, drink horses and fight the Yangtze River, and force Jiangning Prefecture. In the early spring of next year, we will gather the main force, cross the river and fight, and take the southeast."

"So quickly?" Zhe Keqiu was very surprised. "Can our finances support the army's expedition?"
