I, Zhu Houzhao, join the US imperialist chat group

Chapter 154 Zhu Houzhao: Queen Mother, you also have this day! Financial Queen Xu Yunmiao! The gap between women!

"Qian Ning, how is the situation in the capital?"

At the same time, since Li Dongyang mentioned the Northern Cabinet, Zhu Houzhao simply became a little interested.

He had made every effort. He had been in Jinling for more than a month, but he really hadn't paid much attention to the north.

There was no other way, he was also a little reluctant to miss Beijing.

Over there in the north, he is a grandson! Here in Jinling, he is the real emperor!
Li Dongyang's praise for him made him a little happy. Only then did he realize that he had made so many moves and his opponent had no reaction, which was a bit boring.

He called Chan Ning again.

"Your Majesty, our strength in the capital is a little weaker, and we can only detect the unexpected calmness of the cabinet there."

"However, Liu Jian and Xie Qian are now claiming to be ill, while the other is thanking guests behind closed doors. The cabinet is now fully presided over by Yang Tinghe."

"Many officials have petitioned them to ask His Majesty to return to Beijing, but the cabinet has ignored them."

Qian Ning immediately knew what Zhu Houzhao was interested in, and directly talked about the situation of the cabinet. At the same time, he also took the opportunity to talk about the situation of Jin Yiwei in the north.

There is no way, the real commander of Jin Yiwei is in the capital.

He is now able to control Jinling's Jinyiwei, which is already very good, let alone Zhu Houzhao's new demands on their Jinyiwei.

"They didn't have any other reaction?"

Zhu Houzhao was somewhat disappointed. The northern cabinet was too courageous.

This situation is in line with Li Dongyang's description of the current dispute between the north and the south. The northern cabinet is powerless to take action on their side and can only wait for their cabinet to be established.

"Didn't find out more."

Qian Ning answered honestly and immediately expressed his position: "The humble position will strengthen the investigation in the capital!"

"What about other aspects?" Zhu Houzhao was not reconciled. I have made such a big move, but the cabinet's response is not strong enough.

"In other aspects, the Queen Mother seems to have been forced into the palace by hundreds of civil and military officials."

"Marquis Shouning and the others seem to owe a lot of money."

"Also, because His Majesty is here in Jinling, there are rumors that Jinling is the imperial capital, which has caused various housing prices in the capital to fall... There are even store sales. Some wealthy people have even planned to come to Jinling."

Qian Ning didn't know what kind of news Zhu Houzhao wanted to hear, so he had to tell them one by one.

The Jinyiwei in the capital are basically half useless, and the information they can find out is what everyone knows.

"The queen mother was forced into the palace?"

"Huh? Wait a minute... Shouning Hou and the others owe a lot of money. What's going on?"

"Also, what's going on with the decline in various housing prices in the capital? Tell us in detail!"

Zhu Houzhao's eyes lit up decisively and he found the place of interest.

It was rare to hear that these two uncles were unlucky, and it was also rare that his mother was forced into the palace by civil and military officials. He actually felt a different kind of pleasure.

Mother, you too have today!

He almost laughed out loud. Although it was a bit unfilial, this time his mother could finally experience the pain he had suffered before.

"The Queen Mother was indeed forced into the palace."

"Your Majesty, after our news was passed on, the cabinet was actually a little unwilling. Therefore, they seemed to be less active in handling government affairs. They even had no intention of taking charge of the chaos in the capital. They asked the Queen Mother for instructions."

"Some people even directly forced the Queen Mother to beg for her bones."

"At the court meeting six days ago, Liu Jian and others took the lead in begging for bones..."

"Folk rumors say that the Queen Mother was forced to cry by them..."

Qian Ning seemed to know what Zhu Houzhao was interested in, and directly explained the situation of Queen Mother Zhang in detail.

"This is unreasonable! They are still as arrogant as ever! They actually forced my mother and queen like this! Are they really bullying our Zhu family because we have no one left?"

Intensify!

Zhu Houzhao was so happy that he wanted to applaud, and wished that they would increase their efforts so that my mother could fully understand his situation.

Where did this go!
Of course, on the surface he was still extremely angry! I have no choice but to be filial.

Qian Ning did not dare to answer. At the same time, he also noticed that Zhu Houzhao was indignant, but he could not hide the smile at the corner of his mouth.

In this regard, he understood Zhu Houzhao. When they were in the capital, they were affected several times because the Queen Mother did not know where to stand.

He also felt a little resentful towards this supreme Queen Mother.

"Where are my two uncles? My mother and queen have been bullied like this, and they don't even come forward to help? They are my uncles after all!"

Zhu Houzhao wished he could hear more good news.

"The Marquis of Shouning and the Marquis of Jianchang... they helped, but it may have been a disservice to the Queen Mother. They seemed to have no time to take care of themselves. We found out that the Marquis of Shouning and the Marquis of Jianchang seemed to have been tricked! The cabinet seemed to have deliberately concealed it. Following the news about the establishment of a cabinet by His Majesty... and then asked people to lend some high-quality assets in the capital to Marquis Jianning and the others..."

"So..."

"I heard that the Queen Mother's money was also swindled by them."

"As a result, there is no money for His Majesty's draft, and the draft has been stopped..."

Qian Ning also quickly told the story of how the two were deceived. He was secretly happy that these two lawless uncles had suffered a loss.

"Ah? So happy... No, such an outrageous thing, Qian Ning, why did you tell me now?"

I didn't expect the real surprise. It turns out that here, you are doing a great job!

The two uncles suffered losses and hardships. Zhu Houzhao felt happier than during the New Year. He had no choice but to love his family so deeply.

Zhu Houzhao couldn't help but blame Qian Ning for being ignorant.

"Your Majesty, you were in the imperial mausoleum two days ago..."

Qian Ning was also a little aggrieved, but you didn't ask.

"Okay! My two uncles, how much money were they defrauded? How much money was my queen mother defrauded by them?"

He didn't expect to miss such a happy thing, but it's not too late to know now. Zhu Houzhao couldn't wait to know how much his two uncles had been cheated.

"Rumors...the two uncles were defrauded of almost one million taels of cash, and the queen mother was also defrauded of two to three hundred thousand taels, but it's not considered a scam. Most of the industries in the capital now belong to the two uncles. If His Majesty returns to the capital, they may also..."

Speaking of this, Qian Ning seemed to understand financial operations all of a sudden.

The initiative is in Zhu Houzhao's hands, and Zhu Houzhao can take advantage of the opportunity to fatten his relatives!

"Wait a minute...go back to the capital and let them make money?"

Although Zhu Houzhao was happy, he was also reminded by Qian Ning.

"Hmph! I must be returning to Beijing!"

"How dare they cheat my mother! And my two uncles...how dare those businessmen? My two uncles are too rich, right?"

This can be done well. Combined with the series of price increases after Jinling became the imperial capital, if he announced that the capital would not be reduced to a companion capital, various prices in the capital would be able to stop the downward trend.

If he returns to the capital, it will be obvious that the two uncles who have suffered a loss will become even richer and more arrogant.

Zhu Houzhao cannot accept this.

"It is said that...the two uncles only have seven or eight hundred thousand taels of silver, and they borrowed the rest. Now, with the situation in the capital, many creditors have come to visit. The two uncles even had to hide in the harem... ..." Chan Ning continued.

"Wait a minute...are they staying in the harem?"

"The Queen Mother also agreed?"

Zhu Houzhao frowned, once again feeling the indifference of his old mother.

Fortunately, his father only had one queen. Fortunately, he was not married yet. Fortunately, the concubines left by his grandfather Xianzong were all quite old.

However, he was still unhappy. In a sense, the young maids in the palace were also his women.

Although he didn't move.

We can’t have this batch of harem ladies anymore!

Zhu Houzhao felt extremely disgusted all of a sudden, and his disgust for the two uncles increased by 10%.

"I agree..." Qian Ning sensed Zhu Houzhao's displeasure and naturally understood.

"Where are those civil and military officials...what do they do for food? Everyday, if one more mosquito or one more cat or dog comes into my harem, they all complain about me? These two grown men, aren't they worried that it's Lao Ai? No. ...It’s not Lao Ai…Aren’t you worried that they are Liang Ji He Jin or something?”

The examples are not very appropriate. Lao Ai slept with the Queen Mother, and Liang Ji He Jin is quite appropriate.

"They didn't respond." Qian Ning answered carefully.

"Insect!"

Zhu Houzhao was once again disgusted by the double standards of civil servants.

Qian Ning didn't dare to comment.

"Other conditions in the capital...prices, house prices, etc. Let me talk about it again. Also, can you find out where the one million taels of silver they were defrauded from is?"

Forget it, it's useless to be angry with them. It won't be good if you are angry with them. Zhu Houzhao changed the topic again.

Still think of something happy and important.

"I heard that prices and house prices in the capital are still falling. As for money, Your Majesty, I don't know yet..."

Qian Ning told the truth. Thanks to Zhu Houzhao's recent arrangements for them to pay more attention to prices, he now has some economic thinking.

"By the way, because of the situation in the capital, Your Majesty, there are rumors... that some officials are inciting two uncles to come over and invite you back..."

At the end, Channing also added an important message.

"Don't!" "Don't let those two come over!"

Zhu Houzhao was really shocked. Based on the situation in the capital, he could see that the cabinet did not fail to take action, but used a covert method of coercing public opinion, coercing the uncle and even the queen mother to force him to go back.

The enemy is so despicable that they want to unleash dogs to bite people.

"Let me think about it carefully..."

"How to deal with this matter..."

He will definitely not go back to the capital, but now he is afraid of trouble there and will use various means to force him to go back.

He didn't care before, but now...the fight is about to get heated, and he has to guard against their various methods.

Political means can also be used to fight and quarrel openly, but these little dirty tricks are indeed somewhat difficult to guard against.

"Yes! Qian Ning... I will give you a decree, no... to Duke Cheng and Duke Wei, let them switch defenses. You will follow my decree and say that I will go back after worshiping my ancestors..."

"No, this operation..."

"Need money!"

"Don't worry about this matter now. We'll talk about it after these few days are over."

A clear context gradually formed in Zhu Houzhao's mind. With so many assets in the capital, it was a big piece of meat. How could he sit back and watch his two uncles take advantage of him?

Now, it's an opportunity to pick up the slack.

Because of the impact of a series of policies he implemented here, the capital also experienced a disguised economic crisis.

According to Cleveland, he only needs to have enough cash... he can take the opportunity to acquire a wave of high-quality assets at low prices, and then, he can take the opportunity to announce that he is returning to the capital!

No, the system of two capitals and two cabinets was officially implemented, taking turns to govern the country of Ming Dynasty! At that time, these things that have fallen will return to their original prices again.

Therefore, now, he needs a lot of money, even cash, to completely control the economic lifeline.

The problem has returned to Jinling's current situation. He needs to harvest a large amount of cash by speculating in treasure notes.

And the current price of treasure banknotes.

……

"How is the situation today? Liu Jin."

After straightening out his thoughts, Zhu Houzhao came to the Daming First Bank in Xihuamen again in the evening.

"Your Majesty, the current situation is not very optimistic...the price of treasure banknotes has even dropped a bit today, reaching ninety-five taels, or six hundred lots!"

Zhu Houzhao found Liu Jin. After their smashing yesterday, the market value of the 10 million treasure notes had increased to 300,000 taels. In addition, most of the treasure notes were returned to Liu Jin's hands.

Liu Jin looked sad about this, it was all his money!

"Why did it fall?"

Zhu Houzhao was surprised. Looking at the still lively scene outside, he felt a little strange.

In the past two days in Jinling, due to the speculation of treasure banknotes, there was a special ban on Xihuamen Street without a curfew.

Therefore, even at night, the place is brightly lit and crowded, like a city that never sleeps.

"Your Majesty, it will indeed fall. The second-level merchants are only willing to buy the treasure notes that our people sell privately for 95 taels... but for small amounts, they can go as high as 98 taels." Liu Jin almost cried. : "Your Majesty, I only have one hundred thousand taels of money in my hands."

"Where is the feudal lord? The feudal lord and the others didn't come to collect treasure money from your people?"

Zhu Houzhao was even more surprised.

"Yes, there are a few... But now the feudal king seems to have learned a lesson. When they came to inquire, they were only willing to offer eighty taels! They also said that they had reached an alliance and warned the younger ones that they would not buy until the last day. They are all now Looking forward to falling."

The problem turned out to be the vassal king, who was unwilling to take over.

Zhu Houzhao frowned, and the big fat sheep, King Ning and King Anhua, appeared in his mind. Do you want to put more pressure on them?
"Is there no way to make the price of treasure banknotes rise again?" Zhu Houzhao was not satisfied with this situation.

"Your Majesty, unless... we find some more big patrons and eat them all in one go."

Huang Bao was on the sidelines giving advice. With Liu Jin's example of being the wrongdoer, he could draw inferences from one instance to another.

"Your Majesty, I'm so young, I really can't afford so much money anymore!" Liu Jin was about to cry, and her heart was bleeding.

"Who are you looking for?" Zhu Houzhao frowned. There were not many people he could trust or who could give money at the moment.

"Your Majesty, in this case... the civilian girl has a suggestion."

Xu Yunmiao was on the side and already understood that Zhu Houzhao wanted to take the opportunity to harvest the vassal king. At this moment, she thought for a long time and an idea came out.

"What suggestions? Tell me."

Zhu Houzhao looked at Xu Yunmiao expectantly.

"Your Majesty, it's just that... the daughter of the people wants to organize a few big businessmen and ask them to pay for the extra treasure banknotes in Eunuch Liu's hands at the price of 400,000 taels in batches, pushing the current value of the treasure banknotes to 400,000 taels in one fell swoop. The size of silver.”

"In addition...Your Majesty, you will announce tomorrow...that the worship of Taizu will begin the day after tomorrow! You will directly name the first batch of vassal princes to accompany you to start, and you will burn all the treasures in front of everyone."

"In this way, the vassal king who has not bought the treasure money must start buying it!"

Xu Yunmiao gave her suggestion. There was no other way. Coin speculation seemed complicated, but to put it bluntly, it was also very simple.

Yesterday was just one day of work, and Xu Yunmiao completely understood the logic of making money.

Especially the scene where Zhu Houzhao asked Liu Jinxiu to pull out a straight board with one hand and take the throne in one breath made her understand it even more.

She also wanted to be a banker and make back the money her family lost.

And... with Zhu Houzhao as their trump card, they can completely decide the rules of the game.

"Hiss! Miss Xu's move is amazing!"

Huang Bao immediately took a breath of cold air: "In this way, under the pressure of Your Majesty, the vassal king will have to pay even 12,000 or 1 million coins! They will still rush to buy! If you buy it late, the price of the coins will be even higher Outrageous!”

Huang Bao understood immediately.

"Huh? Still, is this still possible?" Liu Jin was dumbfounded, not expecting that he was worse than a woman.

"and then?"

Zhu Houzhao also gave Xu Yunmiao a high look. This woman gave him so many surprises that he even dared to take advantage of her.

This method is indeed feasible, but it will wrong the feudal kings.

"Then... Your Majesty, the current operations here at Xihua Gate are not airtight. The entire wealth of Jinling cannot be estimated by just 400,000 taels or 1 million taels..."

Xu Yunmiao's beautiful and calm face revealed a touch of amusement, her red lips slightly raised in a nice arc: "After we operate like this, someone will definitely learn from it! Tomorrow's treasure note will be worth 400,000, and the treasure note the day after tomorrow may be worth 400,000 yuan. It’s worth half a million... Even if it only takes a few more transactions, the value of the tens of millions of coins can be pushed up to one million silver in less than ten days!”

hiss!
hiss!
As soon as Xu Yunmiao said these light words, several people present took a breath.

Zhu Houzhao was even more struck by Xu Yunmiao's strategizing attitude at this moment, which made his little heart beat hard.

He admitted that Xu Yunmiao was so charming right now!
He almost wished he could hug Xu Yunmiao and give her a good kiss!
Female Zhuge! Definitely a female Zhuge!

"Okay, okay! Just do it like this! Xu Yunmiao... your idea is really good! I definitely didn't misjudge you!"

In addition to being excited, Zhu Houzhao couldn't wait to take action immediately: "Forget tomorrow, I will call the vassal king over now and let them buy it!"

"No! Your Majesty, we can't be too hasty!"

Xu Yunmiao stopped him, her eyes full of wisdom: "Your Majesty... you don't need it for now, just tomorrow. And... under the current situation, I also suggest that Eunuch Liu quickly sells the treasure banknotes in his hand, ninety taels, eighty taels, or even seven Twelve taels are fine, as long as someone can eat it, you can throw as many as you want..."

"Huh? Why, why?" Zhu Houzhao didn't understand.

"How can this be done! Our family is going to die!" Liu Jin looked at her unkindly. He had a good impression of this woman just now, but suddenly he felt a little disgusted.

Huang Bao glanced at Xu Yunmiao strangely, then turned his eyes and seemed to understand something.

"People's hearts!"

Xu Yunmiao didn't hide anything and just spit out two words.

"People's hearts?" Zhu Houzhao didn't react for a while.

"Yes, it's the people's hearts! Your Majesty... what we are doing right now is, to put it bluntly, arousing greed in people's hearts."

Xu Yunmiao said confidently: "In fact, it has the same effect as a casino."

"The casino has just started to let you win a small amount, and even... when you lose a lot, it will also let you win a small amount and see hope."

"And ours...yesterday it was seventy taels, one hundred taels...today, it has dropped to eighty taels, seventy taels, even fifty taels, thirty taels..."

"Then after His Majesty announced the policy, he raised it to seventy taels, one hundred taels, one hundred and fifty taels..."

Xu Yunmiao slowly described a scene: "If you hold a treasure note bought at twenty taels and keep it... until the day after tomorrow, it will be one hundred and fifty taels, that will be a full seven times increase!"

"But if you bought the treasure banknote for ninety-five taels and saw it drop to fifty taels, thirty taels... would you panic and be afraid?"

"I finally gritted my teeth and sold...and suddenly it rose to one hundred and fifty taels. Do you regret it?"

"One more thing is... Your Majesty, with this current method, the people have too much cash in their hands, but the rich have no cash in their hands. After such an operation, we must first collect the cash in the hands of the people, and then we can Let those who are rich join this game more unscrupulously.”

"We can guarantee that we are the final winner."

Xu Yunmiao, the financial queen of Ming Dynasty, was slowly born under the watchful eyes of Zhu Houzhao, Huang Bao and Liu Jin.

Zhu Houzhao even discovered that Xu Yunmiao was full of damn charm at this moment! So feminine!

The same is a woman...

The gap between her mother and Xu Yunmiao is really too big!

Against the background of her own mother, Xu Yunmiao really has too many shining points!

Queen! Queen!
My queen is you! Not a queen, but also a noble concubine!
Zhu Houzhao looked at Xu Yunmiao deeply and aggressively. He could not let this woman go!
