Chapter 535: Putting a long line to catch big fish
Lin Chong shook his finger: "That's not necessarily true. Even if he goes there, it doesn't prove that he is the person around Zheng Chenggong. Maybe he just wants to report the situation first and then look for an opportunity to leave?"
Mu Xi had never thought of this possibility before, but he had indeed sent people to monitor the area. However, in order to prevent being discovered, his people were kept at a distance, and the view was not particularly clear.
"It doesn't matter. We will know the identity of this person sooner or later. Don't worry at this moment. Now that Zheng Chenggong has learned about Xiao Shunzi's betrayal of him, what do you think he will do next?" Lin Chong smirked.
"If it were me, I would probably find a way to catch him, and then determine who has been exposed, so that I can adjust my strategic steps in time." Mu Xi thought for a while and answered Lin Chong.
Lin Chong snapped his fingers: "Yes, that's it. A smarter idea should be like this. Stop the loss in time and minimize your loss. Since this little straight has no use value, then
We must quickly find out what else he knows."
"Do you think this guy really knows something else, but is just hiding something from us?"
Lin Chong thought for a while: "It's not impossible. After all, he is still worried about his life. If he doesn't hold something that can save his life, he will definitely feel uneasy. I can completely understand this feeling.
In two days, he will naturally come to us and explain clearly."
"Wait until Zheng Chenggong takes action against him?"
"That's right, so your pledge must be appropriate. When you do good deeds, be sure to leave your name behind. Let him know what kind of situation he is in now and who can really save him."
Mu Xi nodded: "I know what to do, young master, don't worry, I will let him experience it appropriately."
"You are really a teachable child." Lin Chong nodded with satisfaction: "You can continue to find someone to keep an eye on this place, and just record the content of each message and the specific person. As for coming to pick up the mail and give orders.
People, please try your best to check first. This is not urgent. As long as we know his next movements, it will not be difficult for people to guess."
Mu Xi nodded: "Okay, but this time the person who came to get the news just took away the things left just now without giving any orders."
"Normally, even if this little eunuch doesn't tip him off, he must already know about Xiao Shunzi being recruited by us. How could he act rashly before he understands the specific situation?" Lin Chong shrugged.
Mu Xi sighed: "It would be nice if he could stay so quiet all the time. We can forget about his eyeliners and concentrate on doing something useful."
"Speaking of this, it seems that I haven't seen Wei Changqing and the others for a long time? Have you seen him?" Lin Chong suddenly remembered what he had asked Wei Changqing to do before, and he didn't know how he did it.
"I've never met him, but I have heard some news about him." Mu Xi responded.
"What news?" Lin Chong raised his eyebrows. Wei Changqing had done something earth-shattering. The news had reached the palace, but why hadn't he heard of it?
"It's just what you told him before. Wei Changqing has worked very hard. I feel that it won't be long before your official banknotes can be fully implemented in Nanjing City." Mu Xi also admires Wei Changqing. I have to say,
Even if this person leaves the officialdom and goes to the shopping mall, he can still prosper.
He had always thought that the young master's idea was a fantasy before, but he didn't expect that he would actually do it, and it seemed that everyone liked him.
Wei Changqing has always been a low-key person in business, and he has mostly good reviews from businessmen in Nanjing. There has been almost no cheating or abduction.
Now this official banknote is really impressive and has begun to be known and accepted by everyone on a small scale. Many people have asked him privately about the official banknote.
"Young Master, there is no need to fight for the time being. Should we continue to implement this official bank certificate?" Mu Xi felt that since this thing was the young master's emergency method to raise funds for the war, it should not be needed in the era of peace.
Use it.
"Of course I have to push it. Who told you that this thing can only be used for emergency purposes during wars. Now the national treasury is short of money. If we can use this method to collect some of the money, it will be a good thing for us."
"But we still have to pay back the money. Not only do we have to pay them back, but we also have to pay them interest. So in this calculation, don't we lose money?" Mu Xi couldn't understand.
"Don't worry, you will see its benefits when this thing is really implemented." Of course there are benefits, otherwise why would the country issue so many bonds every year? No matter what the circumstances, a country must have
Money matters. If the country doesn’t have money, then don’t mention anything.
Fortunately, the city of Nanjing was hardly disturbed by the flames of war, so the people here lived a relatively comfortable life, and most of the merchants made a lot of money. It would not hurt them to use part of their money to buy official bank certificates.
The reason why Lin Chong plans to implement this is not just to raise funds. If he wants this country to develop for a long time, this political structure must be slowly changed. The businessmen who have the most money should have their own place in politics.
, this is the inevitable process of development of every country.
If you don't want to be overthrown in the end, you have to find a way to change it yourself. This is Lin Chong's understanding. Therefore, the promotion of official bank bonds among the private sector also takes into account changing the political structure.
But his idea can't be so perfect. He can only change it bit by bit. Anyway, doing it is much better than not doing it.
"You mean what he did was quite successful? Among the people, can everyone accept this kind of thing?" Lin Chong couldn't wait to meet Wei Changqing. This guy is really a talent.
"Young Master Wei has indeed done well, but I guess there is another reason why he has not come to the palace recently." Mu Xi couldn't believe that the young master had not discovered why Wei Changqing had not come to the palace until now.
"Why?" Lin Chong really never noticed this problem, mainly because he didn't pay attention to it.
Mu Xi shook his head: "I really don't know what to say to you. Haven't you noticed that Mr. Mao rarely enters the palace recently?"
After he said this, Lin Chong realized that this was really the case!
"Did they make an appointment? Last time Wei Changqing came, I thought they had a pretty good relationship. To be honest, I was quite surprised at the time." Lin Chong laughed.
Mu Xi: ...So how did you know that the two of them have a good relationship with each other?
