Muchuan explained: "Brother Qin, the purchase of national debt is based on the principle of voluntariness. How can it be forced to buy or sell? Wouldn't this reduce the dignity of the court! But it will make people doubt the financial ability of the court!"
"This is not forced buying or selling. Brother Muchuan, you have misunderstood."
Qin Qiong explained that even if his soldiers were asked to purchase national bonds, it would still be on a voluntary basis.
The difference is that he and Duan Zhixuan will explain the benefits of national debt and believe that their influence in the military will attract many soldiers to buy it.
"How is it, Brother Muchuan, how about this deal?"
"Let me think about it."
"What else is there to consider?
I have already asked you people in the Ministry of Revenue. Are you worried about the reclamation work in the Chang'an Plain?
Isn’t it just about money?”
It sounds like Qin Qiong knows everything about the household affairs! The problem is that Muchuan has just returned from the northeastern border, and he doesn't know the current situation in the household.
Later, I called Ouyang Bufan over and asked, and it turned out that just as Qin Qiong said, the Ministry of Revenue was worried about a shortage of funds!
In the past, the national debt funds raised from Gyeonggi Province were mostly used for field expropriation, crop purchase, royal workshop construction and other expenses. As a result, the gold raised was all used up in one fell swoop.
Now the field reclamation work in the Chang'an Plain is in progress, but the water conservancy project in the river basin near the plain has been stopped because there is no money!
Ouyang Bufan and Mo Zhu have been troubled by this matter recently, and they plan to tell this matter after Muchuan comes over from the court today.
When Muchuan learned about the situation, he couldn't help but slap his forehead and sighed: "It's so troublesome! Why is it money again!"
If he had known that the Ministry of Revenue was so short of money, Muchuan should have made another request to the emperor when he was in court, allowing the Ministry of Revenue to use funds from the royal family's inner treasury!
Qin Qiong, on the other hand, seemed very happy and asked with a bold smile: "How's it going, brother Muchuan? I'm sure you won't have any objections, right?"
Muchuan always felt that he had fallen into Qin Qiong's trap, and the other party deliberately brought up the issue of "national debt" to induce Muchuan to agree to the discussion.
However, the Ministry of Revenue is indeed short of money now. If Muchuan is asked to find a way to raise money, I'm afraid it won't be completed in a few days. So why not just agree to the request and fight Duan Zhixuan? It won't take an hour anyway.
"I understand, I understand! Isn't it okay if I promise?"
After a cup of tea, we were in the courtyard of Tobe's official residence, surrounded by tall birch trees, and the sunlight made the entire courtyard scorching hot.
At this time, Muchuan and Duan Zhixuan were confronting each other, but the atmosphere was not as tense as expected.
On the contrary, Duan Zhixuan smiled heartily and said: "I didn't expect you, Master Mu, to bend your back for money. I have already learned about this from Brother Qin. After we discuss it, Brother Qin and I will naturally help! This is also for us.
Datang!"
"Then thank you General Duan."
"It's just...Master Mu, you can't be merciful! Otherwise, I won't help you!"
Duan Zhixuan said in a sonorous voice.
I'm afraid he heard from Qin Qiong that Muchuan likes to deal with people, so he guessed that Muchuan would not show his true ability.
But now that Duan Zhixuan has given such a warning, How dare Muchuan not show his true ability, so he said: "Of course I will try my best, but the discussion between the two of us must be limited to the point, don't hurt the harmony, let alone
Injuring each other’s lives.”
"It's natural."
"Then let's ask General Duan to take action..."
As soon as Muchuan finished speaking, Duan Zhixuan swooped over, as fast as an eagle falling from a cliff.
Duan Zhixuan's straight fist came towards Muchuan's head. Naturally, Muchuan did not dare to take the punch forcefully and immediately dodged it with his head tilted.
Unexpectedly, as soon as Muchuan dodged, the opponent immediately kicked Muchuan's knee. The kick was caught off guard and Muchuan fell to the ground.
The moment Muchuan lost his balance, Duan Zhixuan rushed over again, raised his fist and hit Muchuan hard on the head.
Oh my God! Muchuan couldn't help shouting in his heart, Zhixuan's attack was too cruel! Every move was deadly, and there was no mercy at all. It was obvious that the two of them had agreed to stop at this point, how could he compete with each other like this!
Muchuan complained in his heart, but his body moved very quickly. He slapped his hands on the ground, moved his body, and rolled two meters away.
Just by moving this distance, Duan Zhixuan's fist that was originally going to hit Muchuan's head missed and hit the green brick floor of the yard instead.
After being beaten like this, the bricks and stones were cracked and dust was raised!
Muchuan was dumbfounded. If he had dodged a little slower just now, his head would have been smashed into pieces like an apple.
Muchuan Liyu stood up straight and said in a trembling voice: "General Duan, are you taking this a little too seriously..."
"This is a natural thing. Didn't you and I already agree that we won't show mercy?"
"That's true, but I also said not to hurt your life."
Duan Zhixuan smiled heartily: "It won't hurt your life. Master Su Wenmu has unparalleled martial arts and superb skills. A few punches from me will definitely not hurt Master Mu."
"No, no...General Duan, are you looking up to me too much?"
However, Duan Zhixuan didn't even listen to Muchuan's words, and he started to attack again! With a meteoric stride, he appeared in front of Muchuan in one step, and then struck with his fists like a violent storm.
Judging from the body shape, Muchuan's body shape is far inferior to Duan Zhixuan. If he were to catch the fist forcefully, he would probably be injured! So Muchuan chose to dodge, half-step back, and with clever movement, he dodged left and right to avoid Duan Zhixuan.
fist.
Unexpectedly, Duan Zhixuan repeated his old tricks and tried to hit Muchuan's legs with the kick he had just done. Fortunately, Muchuan was prepared this time and quickly jumped up high. As a result, he successfully dodged the opponent's kick with one jump.
Hit.
And when Mu Chuanteng was two meters in the air, he threw out his right foot and kicked Duan Zhixuan's shoulder blade. As a result, Duan Zhixuan was forced to retreat three meters due to the force of the kick.
Duan Zhixuan was worthy of being a veteran. During the retreat, he immediately used his right foot as a fulcrum to release the force. He was very successful in removing the force from Muchuan's foot and stabilizing his body.
Little did he know that Muchuan had already landed on the ground at this time and gathered all his strength to attack quickly. With one step, Muchuan hit the opponent's chest with a heavy punch.
System skills, turn on!
The secret of boxing, meteor punch!
Muchuan used his system ability to punch his fist fiercely. At that time, the muscles of his right fist bulged, and the concentrated power was like a meteor that cut through the sky and pierced through the air and rushed towards Duan Zhixuan's chest.
