If someone warms the quilt, he can also hug someone to sleep at night, so Zhu Xu is naturally happy.

But in the middle of the night, Zhu Xu's door was still knocked open.

Zhu Xu lit the light and looked at the template laid on the table, and the sample of the new coins.

This is a royal money house established by Fu Tao, a sample of copper coins, silver dollars and paper money designed.

A copper coin is round on the outside and square on the inside. The four large characters are "Jingzheng Tongbao". They all seem to be copper coins, but in fact there is a thread of silver thread in the circle, which is used to prevent fakes.

Two silver dollars, the size of a copper coin, are solid, with Zhu Xu's avatar printed with three gentlemen, behind them, namely one qian and five qian respectively.

Finally, there are three paper tickets, namely silver tickets. Each one is fronted by Zhu Xu's avatar and the huge Forbidden City. The background is the towering Mount Tai, the Great Wall, and the vast ocean. It is one qian, five qian, and one liang.

In other words, the maximum face value of the new version of the silver notes, the entire Ming Dynasty silver notes, will be only one or two!

Zhu Xu looked at it carefully, especially under the lamp, which shone very clearly.

This one is even more refined than he expected, and he couldn't help but whisper: "It's not bad, it seems that Li Yizao and others are really attentive..."

The design of this coin was designed by some people from the Royal Court, such as Li Yizao and others. They have broad thinking and have many communication with missionaries such as Joshua Chan. They are knowledgeable and have surpassed many people in terms of forward-looking nature.

Hai Lanzhu was wearing a thin single dress, sitting beside Zhu Xu with a protruding front and back, turning on the lamp for him, looking at Zhu Xu with a focused expression, pursing her lips, and her eyes were bright.

Zhu Xu looked carefully for a while, nodded in satisfaction, and picked up Fu Tao's memorial.

Fu Tao wrote a lot in the memorial book, including the cabinet's intention to take away the issuance rights of the coins, and the reserves of the royal bank's gold and silver.

Zhu Xu frowned. Not only did Fu Tao disagree, but he would also object. The power of the cabinet must be controlled and they cannot give them the opportunity to restrain him. If the royal bank falls into the hands of the cabinet, Zhu Xu's voice will be greatly weakened.

The predecessor of the Royal Money House was Huitong Trading Bank. In the early stage, Huitong Trading Bank was a money house with a large amount of deposits of silver and gold. The name of Huitong Trading Bank was left to Wei Liangqing and others. As the headquarters of the "Huizi" Chamber of Commerce, the main body was renamed Royal Money House. It was the largest money house in the Ming Dynasty and had an absolute status in terms of law, policy, administration and business.

The cabinet did not completely take away the royal money house, obviously because it was jealous of Zhu Xu's attitude. The reason why I told Fu Tao directly was that I wanted to test the bureaucratic class of the Ming Dynasty first always hoped that the emperor would rule without doing anything.

The Royal Money House is Zhu Xu's money bag, a great weapon for him to control the government and the army, and he will never hand it over to others!

After reading these, Fu Tao also mentioned some opinions, such as fixing the ratio of copper coins to silver, silver to gold, and exchange them for fixed quotas; for example, waive handling fees for depositing and withdrawing money in a royal bank or a controlled bank, and accelerating the replacement of current circulating gold and silver and copper coins, etc.

Zhu Xu has a slight slight head, and Fu Tao is becoming more and more mature and can be entrusted with great responsibility.

He gave a few instructions on this memorial, then closed it, then leaned on the chair, pondering.

With the deposit of the royal bank, as well as the tribute of Bumubutai in this cleaning in Beizhili, the current bank's silver is estimated to be 100 million taels, and he can use at least 50 million taels. In addition to the taxes and deposits of the silver last year, Zhu Xu can use nearly 80 million in cash!

"Eighty million, 50 million, I will give you 10 million this year to try it out to see how much money is missing in Jiangnan..."

Zhu Xu whispered to himself. Most of the economy of the Ming Dynasty was concentrated in Jiangnan. Jiangnan lacked silver. There was no way to count the specific amount. He could only slowly test and completely activate Jiangnan's business, and make an estimate in the future.

Hai Lanzhu never spoke, but just quietly accompanied Zhu Xu.

If it were in the past, Zhu Xu would have been bored and insomnia alone, but with someone next to him, he felt very comfortable and did not feel insomnia.

"sleep!"

Suddenly, Zhu Xu picked up Hai Lanzhu and walked towards the bed, laughing.

"Blow the light, blow the light..." Hai Lanzhu's pretty face turned red and she shouted quickly.

I was speechless all night until dawn.

Before Zhu Xu got up, Cao Wenzhao took the imperial edict, wearing the general's uniform, riding a horse, and soldiers to the Fang Kongzhao mansion.

Fang Kongqi looked at Cao Wenzhao who suddenly appeared, his expression was solemn, his temples were pounding, and countless thoughts were rotating in his heart.

His son Fang Yizhi was even more trembling and unable to stand steadily.

Cao Wenzhao looked at Fang Kongzhao and laughed loudly, "Don't worry, Lord Fang, I am sending the order today. Let's go with me to the governor's yamen. I believe Governor Huang is already waiting."

Fang Kongqi was nervous. The order came too suddenly, making him confused.

But he had to follow Cao Wenzhao, who brought all the real elite soldiers. Of course, without these, he had to leave.

Cao Wenzhao took the horse and walked quickly towards the governor's yamen with Fang Kongqi.

Cao Wenzhao was very high-profile, passing through the city, attracting countless eyes and countless speculations.

Huang Liji, who was in the governor's yamen, was frightened at this moment.

He was "invited" by Cao Wenzhao and his attitude was very good, but it was this "good" that made him uneasy.

Cao Wenzhao was a military general, and it is logical that it is strictly forbidden to get involved in government affairs. But if he really got involved openly, it would not be a trivial matter!

What's more, Cao Wenzhao was not a simple military general, he was an old man when the emperor was hidden in his residence. He was recognized as the emperor's first confidant today!

He appeared so suddenly and directly, and participated in government affairs, and no one dared to underestimate him.

"Sir, the emperor, are you going to repeat the incident in Northern Zhili?" A senator said with a worried look beside Huang Liji.

The incident in Northern Zhili has almost spread throughout the Ming Dynasty, and no one dares to be careless.

Huang Liji did not have the ability to think now, all of which were thinking about Cao Wenzhao and the intentions of the emperor behind him.

No one would doubt the emperor's determination to reform, but he did not understand why the emperor's will came so quickly and what purpose was it?

Soon, Cao Wenzhao brought his soldiers into the governor's office. When he saw Fang Kongzhao again, his expression changed drastically. He suddenly had a strong sense of bad premonition in his heart!

Cao Wenzhao showed off his power today, so he naturally wanted to show everyone in Nanzhili.

He knelt down and pulled out the imperial edict, and said in a deep voice, "Substantially to the heavens... Governor Su Huang Liji, I sincerely hope that I will refuse to move forward... All official positions are removed and the prison is to be investigated... Governor Su's right-sponsored political party, Kong Yu, is brave and knowledgeable, diligent and pragmatic, and is promoted to the temporary governor's affairs. He hopes to be pioneering and enterprising, brave and fearless, and advance the new policy reform in a big way..."

Huang Liji's face turned pale and there were big cold sweats on his head.

He never expected that he would be deprived of his post and imprisoned? Since Taizu founded the Ming Dynasty, has there been any governor who was imprisoned without any fault?

Did he... really get jailed?

Fang Kongzhang was overjoyed. He wanted to wait for Xu Jie to come before he could turn over, but he did not expect that he did not wait for Xu Jie, but waited for the emperor's will!

Interim Governor’s Affairs!

This is to exercise his power as a governor, and at the same time it shows that it will not take long before he will be properly promoted!
