"Very good," Yan Shiyue nodded: "If you don't do it, I will do it. One is to cast the Treasury silver into silver bricks, fifty taels or more per ingot, and the other, I think
Although the ladder-like shelves of the bank are clearly visible at a glance, they are indeed easy to overlook when inventorying the inventory. In the future, the inventory should still be weighed."
The fourth prince nodded: "Before the Treasury Silver is recast, your scale can also be used. The Treasury soldiers will weigh their weight when they come in and out. Naturally, there will be no kidnapping... Speaking of which, Gu Dao's holding of silver is real.
It’s incredible.”
"Money and silk touch people's hearts," Yan Shiyue said: "Personnel management and the procedures for opening treasury must be improved."
While the two were talking, the food was put on the table.
The fourth prince sat aside, then remembered and asked, "Did you really issue a military order to your father?"
While Yan Shiyue was drinking porridge, he gestured to the box he was pressing on with his elbow. The fourth prince quickly removed his arm, opened it, took a few glances, and said in astonishment: "It's actually true, why did you write this?"
She answered him lazily: "Because I am the Prime Minister, and it is not my duty to pursue my own affairs in my position and share your worries for you?"
The fourth prince said: "I'm asking you seriously! You want to make money, so why are you writing this? Are you asking your father to use the seal? Aren't you worried that you can't do it? What if you can't do it in three years? How will you end it?
"
Yan Shiyue glanced at him: "When I said this, I never thought about 'can't do it'. Let Aye use the seal just to put some pressure on myself. Then take a step back and say
, even if there is some force majeure and I really didn’t do it, I will still be happy to accept the punishment. What is money? You will get it back after all the money is gone! Use my silver to make my father happy. This is more valuable than anything else.
Isn’t it?”
The fourth prince could not help but remain silent.
Yan Shiyue looked at him.
The fourth prince asked: "Why do you look at me like that?"
She said: "Fourth brother, I remember the first time I met you, you asked me very seriously. You said, 'I have never understood how you dared to kill people from a whole county during the smallpox epidemic in Qinzhou.
Risking your life?'"
She looked at him steadily: "Now, your temper of searching for the root of things has not changed. Why has the direction of your doubts changed?"
The fourth prince was startled.
Looking at her clear black and white eyes, he felt that there was nothing to hide.
He opened his mouth, but couldn't say anything. He pressed the military order on the table and strode out.
After Yan Shiyue had eaten, she walked out and found a small railing in the palace. She sat cross-legged and thought about it. Little did she know that in the eyes of the empress, this scene was almost a testament to the gods.
Even the Queen Mother heard about it and came over to take a look at it from a distance. She also warned everyone: "Fuyan is different from us. Don't disturb her or miss the important event."
Yan Shiyue knew nothing.
She is now very accustomed to the breathing method taught by Huo Qijing. After sitting like this for a while, her mind will be particularly clear. She went through everything in her mind before she jumped down and asked: "Where is Mr. Xu now?"
Weixin replied hurriedly: "I heard that I and the Crown Prince have gone to investigate the Treasury Bank case. They are all at the Hubu Yamen."
Yan Shiyue nodded, ordered the horse to be prepared, and then said slightly happily: "The Queen has told me that you are not allowed to ride a horse, and you must be careful in the first three months."
"Don't worry!" Yan Shiyue pinched her face: "Xiao Weixin, go prepare your horse."
Wei Xin had no choice but to go, and Yan Shiyue rode to the Hubu Yamen. The gatekeeper was Qing Wei. When he saw her, he came up to her and saluted her, while whispering: "Congratulations, Master."
Yan Shiyue hummed.
Qing Wei said: "Master is not here, he went to see the driver."
Yan Shiyue said: "I'm not looking for him, I'm looking for Mr. Xu."
When she was still young, she found two soldiers to send her there.
The prince and the others had vacated a room as a temporary office and were having a meal at the moment, which looked even more shabby than eating on the porch.
As soon as they saw her passing by, the others quickly stood up to greet her. The prince said, "Why are you here? Have you eaten?"
Yan Shiyue said: "I just got up and had breakfast. You guys eat while I look for Mr. Xu."
When he saw that Xu Wenqu was not there, the prince said, "You want to write a book? Just go to Jixian Hall and find someone to write it for you. There is a lot of violence here, so you don't have to worry about it."
Yan Shiyue was very happy: "Brother, do you still know these things?"
The prince glared at her.
Qu Sinian stood up and said: "Master Xiang, please help me write it for you."
"That's not possible." She refused without hesitation: "The style of my works must be unified!"
Qu Sinian couldn't help but raise his forehead, and the prince also said: "Your work? The whole world knows that it was not written by you! Is it possible that when Xu Qing becomes the prime minister in the future, he will help you write the book?"
But I heard someone behind me laughing and saying, "Thank you for your royal highness's kind words. If such a day comes, I will still feel proud to write a note to the prime minister."
Yan Shiyue turned around and saw Xu Wenqu and the Minister of Dali Temple walking in. They both raised their hands and saluted.
Yan Shiyue said: "No, no, please hurry up and eat!"
At the same time, he said to the prince: "I won't waste Mr. Xu's time too much! He wrote something and it was done very quickly."
The prince said helplessly: "How can I still stop you?"
He asked her again, "Did you really issue a military order?"
Yan Shiyue nodded, and Weixin held the box in her hand. She brought it up and showed it to the prince. After reading it, the prince silently touched her head and said nothing.
Xu Wenqu and others also looked at it, and Yan Shiyue didn't tell her to put it away, and planned to show it to more people. After all, if she wants to make money, she needs to take measures. The more people know about this, the more people will oppose it.
few.
Xu Wenqu said while eating: "Master Xiang, what kind of notes do you want to write? Why don't you tell me now, and I can write it after I finish eating."
Several people couldn't help but take a second look at him, feeling that his words were really out of place. Why should the prime minister's reliance be taken for granted?
Yan Shiyue said without hesitation: "Okay."
She moved a stool over by herself and said to him: "Sir, first of all, I want a piece of information. I want to request an order to add a 'Simao', or something else called it, in addition to the four departments of the Ministry of Household Affairs."
Well, that’s what it means anyway, and this ‘Simao’ is responsible for state-owned industries.”
Others wanted to ask, but the prince waved his hand and stopped, lowering his eyes and listening quietly.
Yan Shiyue said: "What is state-owned? It means that it is organized and operated by the state, and the income belongs to the state. Of course, it is not to compete with the people for profits, but to specialize in some relatively 'big' and 'important' things. For example
Cement can be operated by the state, and in the future, I will do many similar things."
"In addition, we can also get involved in some more 'sensitive' areas, such as our previous trade with Mobei? For example, we can also trade with Karakhan or other countries in the future... It is inevitable to be soft when making money from our own people.
If you make money from these people, you can sharpen your sword."
The censor of Zuodu couldn't help but said: "Master Xiang, is there something wrong with this?" (To be continued)
