Borrow the day to change the day

() "Master Zhong, after hearing what you said, I don't think this person is the secret agent of Jianlu."

After Emperor Chongzhen expressed his feelings, he looked at Wen Tiren and said, "I am very pleased that this person has always insisted on abandoning the dark and turning to the bright. If Mr. Ge is worried, I will consult Master Sun, and then tell Liu Xingzuo to meet him personally. Then Make a decision, is that okay?"

Wen Tiren's remonstrance was originally based on an instinctive worry, not because he had any evidence or obviously felt that there was something wrong.Now that Emperor Chongzhen speaks cautiously, naturally there will be no more doubts.

Xu Guangqi also had no objection, so the matter of Liu Xingzuo was settled.

Now Wen Tiren and Xu Guangqi feel that 1 years is too long, and they are fighting for the day.In order to be able to see Daming's majesty in the world in his lifetime, he immediately bid farewell to Emperor Chongzhen and went to work on the matter at hand.

Originally Zhong Jinwei wanted to go with Xu Guangqi, but he was stopped by Emperor Chongzhen.

Emperor Chongzhen put away the world map again and asked his servants to move it back to the screen.After finishing all this work, he drove out all the maids who were on duty in the palace, and then asked Zhong Jinwei: "Master Zhong, what is the origin of the two people you just recommended?"

When Zhong Jinwei heard it, it turned out that it was because of this that he stopped himself.Can't help but smile, Emperor Chongzhen is still young, so he can't suppress his curiosity.

So, he replied: "Your Majesty, that Song Yingxing wrote a book called "Tiangong Kaiwu", which was passed down to later generations, and thus won the name after him. The Manchu Qing Dynasty engaged in literary inquisition, and this book was lost for a time. Send it back to the country."

When Emperor Chongzhen heard this, he smiled contemptuously. Tartars are just Tartars, they have no guts at all, and even this technical book will be banned.Immediately, he put aside this idea, and asked Zhong Jinwei: "What about Liu Xingzuo, I don't seem to have heard you hint."

"Your Majesty, I don't specialize in studying history, so unless you are a famous person, it is unlikely to know. I have never heard of this Liu Xingzuo, but I know the role of secret operations and undercover agents very deeply. Therefore, I strongly recommend that Your Majesty use This person's talent." Zhong Jinwei said later, his expression became solemn.

"Oh, I see." Emperor Chongzhen was a little disappointed, it turned out that he was not a very famous person.

Zhong Jinwei sensed Emperor Chongzhen's emotions, thought for a while, and seriously advised Emperor Chongzhen: "Your Majesty, I have a message, and I hope His Majesty can accept it."

Emperor Chongzhen looked at Zhong Jinwei, rarely seeing him talking to himself so seriously.I couldn't help being startled, and then said: "Master Zhong, just be blunt."

"Your Majesty, everyone has different opportunities, so their achievements will also be different. A person who is famous in future generations is certainly a capable person; but a person who has not been heard of in future generations may not be as talented as a famous person." Weak. History does not know how many heroes have been wiped out, and I hope that your Majesty will not ignore talents because future generations have not heard of them."

Emperor Chongzhen felt very ashamed when he heard it, stood up, and sincerely said to Zhong Jinwei: "Master Zhong's words are very true, I will remember them."

"Hehe, it's not bad to hear about the achievements of later generations. It's like cheating on His Majesty." Zhong Jinwei saw that Emperor Chongzhen was also serious, and wanted to ease the atmosphere.

Cheater?Emperor Chongzhen couldn't understand, and when he was about to ask, the servant reported outside the hall that the Minister of the Ministry of Household Bi Ziyan asked to see him.

Therefore, I first issued an imperial edict to interview Bi Ziyan, and I will ask questions about the cheating device when I have time later.

Not long after, I saw Bi Ziyan, an old man in his 60s, stepping into the palace in a vigorous manner, and then saluted Emperor Chongzhen, "Your Majesty, the banknote sample has been printed."

When Zhong Jinwei heard it, what, the banknotes were reprinted again, and someone found it, why didn't he know, he looked at the things in Bi Ziyan's hand with a string of doubts.

After Bi Ziyan finished speaking, he wanted to present it to the emperor, but found that there was no servant in the palace.Emperor Chongzhen didn't call his servants to come in, but went down to get it himself.

Zhong Jinwei also leaned over to see what the new banknotes look like.

Emperor Chongzhen kept talking while looking at it. When he saw Zhong Jinwei passing by to look at it, he handed him the banknote in his hand: "Master Zhong, how do you see it?" There was a trace of pride in his words.

Zhong Jinwei took a look and was taken aback. The banknotes in his hand are completely different from the banknotes he saw before!

There are nine denominations of banknotes, divided into: one cent, three cents, one cent, three cents, one cent, three cents, one tael, three taels, and ten taels.All are measured in taels of silver.

The paper money is only the size of a palm, and it is much more beautiful than the previous paper money.Printed in color, with anti-counterfeiting patterns on the edge.

The entire banknote is divided into three parts, left, middle and right, separated by flame patterns.The face value is printed in the middle part, and the pattern of silver and two copper coins is printed on the left side, corresponding to the face value.The patterns of one centimeter and three centimetres are copper coins, one penny and three cents are copper coin strings, one penny and three pennies are silver ingots, and one tael, three tael, and ten tael are silver ingots. Convexity.On the right side is printed "The Ministry of Households is allowed to print and make Daming banknotes and silver coins for use, Chongzhen Year, Month, Day".

Zhong Jinwei turned to the back of the banknote and found that there was another line of words "A gentleman has nine thoughts: seeing Simming, listening to Sicong, se Siwen, looking respectful, speaking loyal, doing things respectful, doubting and asking questions, angry thinking is difficult, seeing and thinking righteous".

Zhong Jinwei looked at it and commented: "Not bad, it's amazing." He really didn't expect that the technology of the Ming Dynasty could print such exquisite banknotes.

Emperor Chongzhen and Bi Ziyan were very happy when they heard Zhong Jinwei's praise.Especially the Emperor Chongzhen, who knew that Zhong Jinwei came from later generations, was so praised in his eyes, and was even more happy.

"Your Majesty, I haven't heard anything about how these banknotes were printed." Zhong Jinwei asked suspiciously after reading it.

"Hehe, you are busy with the cement business, and I didn't let anyone disturb you. A few days ago, that Hu Zhengyan arrived. I, together with him, Bi Qing and Mr. Wen Ge, agreed on this design, and then made it out with all my strength Yes." Emperor Chongzhen explained proudly.

In fact, Emperor Chongzhen just asked that his favorite "Nine Thoughts" be printed on the back of the banknotes.

"Hu Zhengyan and his good friend Wang Kai have been busy for three days and three nights, and now they have produced this sample." Bi Ziyan also expressed his merits.

"Wang Kai?" Zhong Jinwei had never heard of this person before.

"He is a famous engraver in the south of the Yangtze River. He has cooperated with Hu Zhengyan for a long time. When Jin Yiwei found Hu Zhengyan, he happened to be there, so he brought him to the capital together." Emperor Chongzhen explained Wang Kai to Zhong Jinwei.

Zhong Jinwei admired Hu Zhengyan and Wang Kai who had never met before. You know, this was 400 years ago, and it was okay not to admire such exquisite banknotes.

Unbeknownst to Zhong Jinwei, Hu Zhengyan and Wang Kai jointly printed "Shizhuzhai Calligraphy and Painting Manual", which has become an essential textbook for beginners of Chinese painting in later generations.Not to mention the original version, the re-engraved version has become a popular collection of later generations, which shows the exquisiteness of its printing.

"Your Majesty, is the cost of this banknote expensive?" Zhong Jinwei suddenly thought of a question and asked quickly.

Emperor Chongzhen didn't know, and looked at Bi Ziyan.

"If it is printed in large quantities, you only need to consider the cost of ink and paper. I think the cost is still affordable." Bi Ziyan hurriedly told Emperor Chongzhen.

Zhong Jinwei was relieved after hearing this, as long as the cost can be afforded.Then he smiled and bowed to Emperor Chongzhen: "Congratulations, Your Majesty, I think this banknote will definitely be usable."

When Emperor Chongzhen heard this, he laughed.Taking the paper money in Zhong Jinwei's hand, he looked at it again, as if what he was holding in his hand was not paper money, but genuine silver taels.

"I don't know what your Majesty will do next?" Zhong Jinwei asked.

Emperor Chongzhen raised his head, looked at Zhong Jinwei, and said with a smile: "Master Zhong, don't worry." Then, he ordered the servants outside the palace: "Send the chief minister of the cabinet to see him."

"I don't want too many people to know about it for the time being. Let's make a regulation first." Emperor Chongzhen said as he walked back to the throne.

The office of the cabinet is very close to here, and Wen Tiren came over soon.Therefore, after he finished admiring the banknotes, he began to discuss the regulations for issuing banknotes.

In the past, we discussed the role of banknotes and the general issuance method.

So when this topic is brought up now, Wen Tiren, who participated in the paper currency discussion, directly asked the initiator: "Bo Zhongxing, you said that you want to use the reserve system to issue currency, but you don't know exactly how. jiabao21, Laoxi Mao, Wilderness Grass, hduid's rewards, thank you!
