Da Ming started to ascend the throne

Chapter 1012 Nine Grade Sesame Official

An operation to rectify the emperor's internal guards was personally led by Qinglong, Cao Zhengchun, Baihu, Xuanwu, Suzaku and other high-ranking chiefs of Ming's internal guards.

In this operation, more than 300 internal guards and Jinyiwei were found to be problematic.

Most of them were cleared out of intelligence agencies, and more than 30 people were killed because their crimes were too serious.

Among them are Wu Gang and the others. After all, they have made great contributions to the New Deal, and their family members will not be punished.

Zhu Youjian decided to adjust the number and responsibilities of internal guards. The number of overseas Jinyiwei and internal guards remained unchanged, and they were still responsible for intelligence work.

The number of Jinyiwei stationed in some countries will increase, but the number of Jinyiwei in Ming Dynasty will be reduced.

In the future, only one Jinyiwei office and one internal guard agency will be kept in each province, with about [-] people.

Their powers have also been reduced. Without orders from the headquarters, they only have the power of supervision. They report any problems immediately. They cannot arrest people for interrogation, let alone harass the people at will.

Qian Wanli lived in the posthouse in the capital during this time, and was protected by two fans. After recovering from their injuries, they were taken to the Qianqing Palace to face the saint.

Regarding Jin Yiwei's arrest and torture, Qinglong, the commander of Jin Yiwei, personally apologized to him and told him that the Jin Yiwei who arrested him had been beheaded.

When he heard that Jin Yiwei who arrested him had been beheaded, Qian Wanli had mixed feelings in his heart. Because of his problem, three Jin Yiwei died, and Qian Wanli still felt a little regretful.

Finally, I could see the emperor. Qian Wanli was not as excited as before after tempering for this period of time. After entering the Imperial Study Room of Qianqing Palace, Qian Wanli kowtowed to the emperor on the ground:
"Grassman Qian Wanli, see His Majesty the Emperor!"

Zhu Youjian looked at Qian Wanli, who had escaped from death, and he felt a little embarrassed. He was living well, but he almost died in Wu Gang's hands because he wanted to summon him.

Zhu Youjian waved his hand:
"Free of courtesy and flat body, give me a seat!"

In any case, Qian Wanli was also very nervous when he saw the emperor. Seeing that the emperor gave him a seat, Qian Wanli felt that he wanted to cry suddenly. He was moved, but he dared not sit in front of the emperor even if he was beaten to death.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness, and live forever my emperor!"

"Caomin dare not take a seat in front of His Majesty, so let's answer standing up!"

Seeing that Qian Wanli lowered his head and his body was still trembling slightly, and he no longer had the demeanor of talking eloquently in the hotel that day, Zhu Youjian smiled slightly and said:

"Qian Wanli, raise your head!"

He guided the emperor to let him look up, Qian Wanli was stunned, he heard that when he saw the emperor, he couldn't look up, otherwise it was some kind of crime:

"The grassroots dare not, please forgive me, Your Majesty!"

Zhu Youjian was secretly amused, but an ordinary commoner also knows the rules:

"Forgive your innocence!"

"The grassroots obey the order!"

Qian Wanli raised his head slowly, and suddenly a familiar face appeared in front of him, and Qian Wanli was immediately stunned.

Why does this emperor look exactly like the man I saw at the Gaoyang Hotel a few days ago? It seems that that day in Gaoyang was really the emperor's private visit.

Zhu Youjian looked at the bewildered Qian Wanli and asked:
"Why, do you know me?"

Qian Wanli hastily knelt down and kowtowed again:
"Caomin didn't know that you were His Majesty the Emperor that day, so please punish him for speaking out loud!"

"Those who don't know are innocent, let's die!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Qian Wanli hurriedly flattened his body and stood in front of Zhu Youjian respectfully and with his hands down.

Zhu Youjian knew that he would not dare to sit if Qian Wanli was asked to take a seat, so he didn't force it.

"Qian Wanli, Daming is going to issue banknotes. I am worried that the common people will not accept it. I want you to promote it among the people and shopping malls. What do you want?"

Qian Wanli hastily bowed again and saluted:

"Reporting to Your Majesty, Caomin is willing to go through fire and water for Daming, and he will do whatever he wants!"

Zhu Youjian nodded in satisfaction:
"Da Ming will abolish silver as the main currency of Ming Dynasty within two years, and use dragon yuan, that is, banknotes in all future.

Before issuing banknotes, you were responsible for the promotion of banknotes, so that the common people can rest assured that Daming Longyuan will definitely not be as useless as Daming Treasure Banknotes.

As long as Daming exists for one day, Daming Longyuan will be strong for one day, and the equivalent value will never be lower than silver.

In addition, in order to prevent Daming Longyuan from going back to the old way of Daming banknote protection, only Daming Bank can produce and issue Longyuan, and no one or local government can imitate it, otherwise it will be a capital offense! "

In order to facilitate Qian Wanli's publicity, I will appoint you as the publicity ambassador of Daming Bank, a ninth-rank official position. If you can do this well, it is not impossible to become a fifth-rank official in the future...

Zhu Youjian's words immediately made Qian Wanli confused again, and he kept thinking in his heart:

"Become an official? I actually became an official? I'm not even a scholar, but I can be a ninth-rank official..."

Who doesn't want to be an official? Not everyone can be an official. In the past, if you want to be an official in Daming, you first have to study and get a reputation.

But Qian Wanli was not even a scholar, and was suddenly granted a ninth-rank official position. Although he was only a sesame official, he was also an official appointed by the court.

Zhu Youjian knew what Qian Wanli was thinking, and when he saw that he was stupid and didn't know how to thank him, Zhu Youjian reminded him:
"Qian Wanli, don't you want to be an official?"

"I think, of course I want to be an official... Thank you, His Majesty, for your kindness, long live my emperor!"

Qian Wanli was not alone in promoting the benefits of using banknotes. In order to cooperate with Qian Wanli, Zhu Youjian sent most of the officials from the Imperial Academy and the Ministry of Rites.

Regardless of the size of the official position, they must listen to Qian Wanli's instructions and training when they promote the benefits of banknotes.

In addition, each county must send people to publicize in each county, and Zhu Youjian must let the people of Ming Dynasty know about the imminent issuance of banknotes as soon as possible.

Although it is easy to say that issuing banknotes is easy, if the common people don't accept it, their ancestors are all endangered by the Ming Dynasty's guarantee of banknotes.

For the people of Ming Dynasty, having silver and dragon coins at home is definitely [-] times better than having a pile of waste paper.

As for the civil and military officials, Zhu Youjian was not worried. When the officials sounded, they were all banknotes, and they didn't need them.

At the same time that Ming issued banknotes, another fierce naval battle broke out in America.

The American colonies of Spain, the Netherlands, Portugal and other countries were seized by the Ming vassal. They couldn't easily admit defeat, which was the key to their country's development.

Due to the small number, they were beaten and caught off guard by the Ming vassals, and the army and colonial army were almost wiped out.

But their navies are basically still there, and the navies of several countries colonizing the Americas have united again.

Eighty warships in the United Fleet?Launched an attack on the warships of the Ming army in America.

However, in the face of the Ming army's explosive bombs, the Western coalition forces suffered heavy casualties. At least fifty sail warships were sunk by the Ming navy's explosive bombs.

But they did not flee back in desperation, but embarked on a journey to colonize Africa.

The Ming army also suffered more than 100 casualties this time, and five sailing warships were sunk.
