"Say your reasons"

The official who spoke had cold sweat streaming down his forehead. He was so excited just now that he forgot where he was for a moment.

"Your Majesty, I feel that this kind of move will disrupt the order of the Tang Dynasty and cause unrest among the people. This move is to compete with the people for profit. It will affect your Majesty's reputation among the people and will also cause the decline of the Tang Dynasty's national power. Please think twice."

Li Mingda was not angry because someone objected. Instead, he motioned for the other person to sit down: "That's right, but this move is indeed inappropriate. You are all the pillars of the Tang Dynasty. Tell me what you think."

Seeing that no one in the court continued to speak, Li Mingda pointed at them: "Why don't you say anything? The court meeting is used to brainstorm and solve problems. Use the pen and ink on your desk to write down your support or opposition, opinions and reasons.

Official title, if you write it well, I will reward you."

Li Mingda had spoken, and naturally he couldn't resist Li Mingda's order. He racked his brains and started writing to write down his thoughts.

Murong Xue, who was sitting below, had her eyes rolling. She just drew a smiling and joyful fox and folded it and placed it on her desk.

Fang Xuanling and others knew about this matter, so naturally they would not stupidly write objections. They still had to pretend, and they wrote a lot of words that flattered Li Mingda without going too far.

Only those officials who are really involved in banks in various places are the most nervous. Are banks making money? Of course they are very profitable!

Issuing new currency indicates that the copper coins they hoard in their hands may be a pile of depreciated waste, and some of their illegal activities are covered by banks. If the banks are banned, it will be difficult for them to continue to operate.

Said there is still a risk of exposure.

What’s even more frightening is that the money in banks is not proportional to the money stored. No bank can handle more than half of the storage. If users come to withdraw cash, a large amount of money has long been spent by them.

Now that Li Mingda is going to stab their lifeblood, how can they bear it?

Use the words that you think are the most useful, and try to get rid of Li Mingda's idea, or the bottom line is to get rid of the idea of ​​abolishing private banks in five years.

But they knew that Li Mingda had already seen through their true nature. He didn't take action before because the time was not mature enough. Besides, Li Mingda's own subordinate Li Chen also opened a bank for her, and Jin Yiwei also had a secret bank.

, how it works inside will be clear once you ask.

Everyone's writings were gathered together. Li Mingda did not open them himself, but threw them directly to Fang Xuanling and Wei Yan. In front of the civil and military officials of the court, he ordered them: "Give everyone a list of officials who oppose them and write them down.

Wei Yan, who is fighting for the interests of the people, took them outside Taiji Palace and asked Qingfeng to lead the imperial guards to start a sudden interrogation. I want to know how many people think I am stupid and how many senior officials of the Tang Dynasty are involved."

"If you agree, I will give you five years to settle the accounts of these banks and return the debts. If you can still do it within five years, there will be no need for you to continue to exist in this court."

"Don't think that I don't know what you are doing with these banks. Those copper coins that have been disappearing from the market are smelted into copper ingots by you and then sold to the court to compete with the people for profit. The real people's ideas are very simple.

I try my best to have enough food, clothing and clothing to feed my family and make myself live a better life. The huge amount of money that comes from it can be used to open a bank, but I don’t have the ability to smelt copper coins and earn the price difference with the court to suck the blood of the Tang Dynasty."

"I brought up the bank matter today just to see your true colors. The result made me very happy. I haven't found a chance to deal with you maggots for a long time."

Just when Li Mingda was talking, Fang Xuanling and Wei Zheng had already compiled the personnel list as quickly as possible. Wei Yan also let the guards enter the Tai Chi Hall early. Two officials stood beside each

The guards put their hands on the horizontal swords at their waists. If the officials around them make any move, they will be killed immediately.

"Fang Xuanling"

Fang Xuanling: "I am here"

"Read the list"

"promise"

The sudden move was completely unexpected by everyone. Among the officials present who wrote objections and those who were involved in the bank, some were so frightened that they fainted.

There was also a strong stench coming from the place.

"Ministry of Rites--Zhang Zhidong"

"Ministry of Rites--Chen Li"

"Ministry of Rites--Kong Fei"

"Personnel Department--Duan Peng"

"...."

After reading the list, one-tenth of the officials were missing from the Taiji Hall. The remaining officials who were smart and did not write objections wiped the sweat from their heads. Fortunately, they were smart and did not write objections. Otherwise, even if they did not participate in it, they would

If you are given a stupid name, you will definitely not be able to keep your official position. Relegation to three ranks and retention is the best outcome.

Competing with the people for profit

Murong Xue wanted to laugh after thinking about it. Just like what Li Mingda, the head of the family, said, the people are working hard to feed themselves, clothe themselves, feed their families, and make their lives better. There are so many things that come from them.

Qiancai commanded the bank and had no ability to smelt copper coins to extract the price difference.

This group of people still regard Li Mingda as a fool. If you cannot keep up with the development of Datang, you are destined to be trampled to death at the feet of Datang, a giant who broke free from the shackles and took up his legs to start running in the vast universe.

The fools have been taken out for review. Li Mingda is quite satisfied with the number of people. She thought that at least one-fifth of them would be arrested. It seems that most officials of the Tang Dynasty can still keep up with their own pace and thinking. In this way, the country

Tang Hui will develop faster.

"The stupid ones have been taken away. This does not mean that the rest of you are innocent. Remember my words, take care of yourself in five years. The reform of the Tang Dynasty will continue. You made the right choice this time. I hope you will

Same thing next time”

"Follow my pace, I will let you see an unprecedented new era, let you see unprecedented prosperity, and enjoy the wealth and splendor that you can't even imagine in your heart."

Fang Xuanling took the lead and shouted: "Your Majesty is wise and the Tang Dynasty is prosperous."

"Your Majesty is wise and the Tang Dynasty is prosperous"

"Your Majesty is wise and the Tang Dynasty is prosperous"

This flattery was very comfortable, and Li Mingda narrowed her eyes happily: "Fang Aiqing is a good flatterer, so let Fang Aiqing tell you about the new currency and bank policies."

Fang Xuanling accepted Li Mingda's teasing. Yu Xiaoqian sent the text of the new currency that had been printed to the officials present. Fang Xuanling took the text of the new monetary policy that he had prepared in his hand.

I grabbed a trumpet and started chanting.

"The new currency is divided into three types: gold, silver and copper..."

In Fang Xuanling's rich voice, Datang's future is about to open a new page.
