After leaving Duting Post, Su You rode back to the military aircraft.

Cai Jing came over and asked, "My lord, how is the situation?"

Su You swung his saddle and dismounted: "It's harnessed."

Cai Jing said with a smile: "The Duke is generous. Not to mention the Liao Lord is fatuous and Xiao Xi is greedy. Even a virtuous king and a famous minister can be fooled."

Su You said: "How is the research on the disaster of excessive currency issuance going?"

Cai Jing couldn't help but smile: "I feel that those in power in the past dynasties really didn't know the harm? Or did they do it deliberately? If there is a chance in the future, I will never let these political failures become a disaster that hollows out the country!"

Su You is a little apprehensive. In real history, you boasted about "prosperous Henan Province" and even canceled the national budget. You regarded officials and property as dirt. Then you flattered the king and built gardens, and the wealth accumulated by the previous generation was squandered.

Not to mention, it also led to a huge deficit in the national finance.

Later, in order to make up for the deficit, salt was distributed indiscriminately and used as waste, thus corrupting the salt policy.

Wealthy businessmen once owned hundreds of thousands of coins, but all of them were reduced to nothing and became beggars, or even worse, they drowned or hanged themselves.

Yanyin has been firmly used as a credit currency in the Northern Song Dynasty for hundreds of years. This move directly led to the complete collapse of the country's economy. When the Jin people went south, it was like entering an uninhabited country.

Therefore, when saying that the enemy is in the first three rows, Su You once told a joke, saying that the prime minister of a country once acted like this and was eventually invaded and killed by foreign enemies.

Cai Jing was filled with indignation when he heard this: "How can such ridiculous people control the key points?! Even a clerk of Sitong Company is not qualified!"

Su You laughed loudly at that time and asked Cai Jing to understand the gains and losses and to examine the economic systems of previous dynasties, especially the monetary system.

From the Spring and Autumn Period's "Sub-Mother Theory" and "Light and Heavy Theory"; the distinction between the use value and exchange value of commodities in "Mo Jing"; the idea of ​​currency as an important economic intervention tool for the country in "Guanzi", as well as the amount of currency, circulation

Quantitative discussion;

To the Han Dynasty’s thought of unifying the country’s monetary system and economic system;

Then to the "virtual reality theory" that began to appear in the Tang Dynasty, that is, the theory of the relationship between commodities and currency, and the separation of the commodity value and circulation value of currency itself;

In the early Song Dynasty, the phenomenon of using precious metals, gold, silver, salt banknotes and other similar credit currencies to perform monetary functions introduced the concept of currency circulation velocity.

To finally complete the definition of currency: that is, currency, which is endorsed by the national credit and is the fundamental contract between the parties regarding the right to exchange goods.

It is essentially a circulation tool that is a mutual agreement between owners, that is, "I will give what I have to the market in exchange for what I need."

This is the first treatise on currency in history. Although it was tutored and guided by Su You, the main body of it was still completed by Cai Jing.

Cai Jing wanted Su You to list it, and he countersigned it himself, but Su You refused. He published it as Cai Jing's independent work and submitted it to Zhao Xu.

After reading it, Zhao Xu admired it so much that he named it "Baoquan Yinzhu" and listed it in his study.

Cai Jing was inexplicably grateful to Su You, thinking that Su You was supporting him.

But Su You's purpose is actually to prevent this kid from messing around. With this book, if Cai Jing acts out of line in the future and does not follow what is in his book, it will be inconsistent and his political attitude will waver.

In today's Song Dynasty, this is a big taboo. Shen Kuo is still unable to turn over because he attached to An Shi before and slandered An Shi later.

It is also for this reason that Lu Huiqing has made outstanding contributions in the South China Sea, but he still cannot come back.

Guo Kui was reading a piece of information. When he saw the two people entering the main hall, he said: "Chao Sanyuan is really magical. He has moved the entire Liao History Museum to the military aircraft. Now we know the Liao's military system and its border problems very well.

This straight girl and Korea have a lot to do..."

Su You said: "The straight women are currently in civil strife, and the Korean relatives are powerful. These can be idle chess, and they should be arranged as soon as possible. But they are just idle chess."

"The Lee family of Gyeongwon, Inju, Goryeo, has been married to the royal family for generations. Wang Hui's three concubines are all daughters of the head of the Lee family, Li Ziyuan. Two of them gave birth to many princes, and most of these princes married the next generation of the Lee family of Qingyuan.

.”

"Now that the Qingyuan Li family's power is rapidly expanding, it has become a hidden worry. Wang Hui is also worried."

"But we have now intervened in the political situation of Goryeo. Wang Hui's third son, Jilin Gong Wang Yong, has a favorite concubine named Fu Mingxuan. She is the daughter of Fu Xuan, a businessman from Fujian. She also has a son now."

"If Concubine Fu Xian wants to gain a foothold in Goryeo and fight against the powerful Li family in the harem, she needs the assistance of our court..."

Guo Kui suddenly stopped Su You: "Wait a minute, I've heard of this Fu Mingxuan. The Times described her as a magical woman. Back then, she sewed radish and cabbage seeds from the Duke's vegetable garden into sachets and stole them to Korea...

Mingrun, have you started planning since then?"

Su You touched his nose: "That's really not true. It's because Fu Mingxuan has a unique vision and knows what is most needed to gain a foothold in Korea."

"Being able to fight independently in the Goryeo harem, which is completely controlled by the Li family, I later saw the ability of Concubine Fu Xian, so I ordered merchants from Zhejiang and Zhejiang to help. It can be regarded as an investment."

"By the way, the general framework of the negotiation has been agreed with Xiao Xi today, allowing the businessmen on Zhangzi Island to contact the Nuzhi Wanyan Department. Although Xiao Xi requires that the axes and saws provided by the Song Dynasty must be handled by people from the Liao Kingdom, but

If a straight woman floats to Zhangzi Island through the Yalu River to buy something, we, the Song Dynasty, can’t care about it, right?"

"There is also the matter of Jin Ti asking the Song Dynasty to sell three thousand weapons to Goryeo. Now there is a good reason. The Liao State wants the Song State to set up the customs on Zhangzi Island, which will definitely irritate the Goryeo people. As a means of appeasement,

This little weapon isn’t too much, right?”

Guo Kui smiled and shook his head: "I fought a bloody battle in Jiaozhi and almost got killed by Li Changjie. Later, you and Wang Shao took the city like mustard. I have always wondered why all these things happened.

It’s such a coincidence.”

“It turns out that it’s the hard work that has gone a long way.”

Su You smiled and said: "This is Tong Guan's business, what about the boy?"

Guo Kui said: "Tong Guan has been working really hard during this period of time in sorting out the information on the Liao Kingdom. Today when he was delivering the information, he stumbled dizzy at the door. Seeing that it was nothing serious, I forced him to go back and rest.

Already."

Su You said: "We have to chat with Xiao Xi during this period, so the Military Aircraft Department will pay more attention to Mr. Guo."

Guo Kui said with a smile: "We are all useless people, and His Majesty Meng and Mingrun still think highly of us, so what else is there to say? We have to work hard to repay the emperor's kindness..."

…

Japan, Kyoto.

Cai Bian and Shao Bowen, led by Hei Masheng and Zhang San, entered the palace and met with Emperor Shirakawa, the nominal supreme leader of Japan.

Japan has now reached a time of many conflicts.

Shirakawa's father was Go-Sanjo. During his reign, the Fujiwara clan of the Shoseki family was at its peak.

After the death of Michinaga Fujiwara, his successor, Noriichi Fujiwara, despite his mediocre abilities, relied on the Fujiwara family's centuries-old prestige to survive through the last one, Suzaku, Lengquan, and Sanjo.

But Gosanjo is not a nephew of the Fujiwara family. His mother has a noble status. She is the daughter of Emperor Sanjo and a princess!

After marrying Suzaku, the couple fell in love with each other and soon gave birth to Lin'er, the latter named Gosanjo.

The princess and empress were extremely noble, but their surname was not Fujiwara. In order to ensure that the emperor's bloodline would have Fujiwara blood from generation to generation, Yorimichi married an adopted daughter, Haruko, to Suzaku. However, since Hariko entered the palace, the princess and empress actually had an affair with the emperor's husband.

Fujiwara also banned the power of having a roommate, which shows the power of the Fujiwara family.

It's a pity that God did not bless the Fujiwara family, or it may be that Go-Suzaku played some tricks. After Go-Suzaku died, he passed the throne to his brother Go-Rezen, and made his son Go-sanjo the crown prince, the Fujiwara family could not get him sent to the palace.

The daughters gave birth to princes.

On the contrary, the accumulated dissatisfaction of the princess and queen was inherited by the latter three.

This is the only prince in the past 170 years who is not of Fujiwara family descent.

The Fujiwara family continued their old tricks and sent their daughters to Goulengquan one by one. They only waited for that daughter to become pregnant and then abolished Gosanjo.

But the very amazing thing is that people can't get pregnant!

Go Sanjo's life was difficult. Whenever someone entered the palace, he thought that the person who was the deposed prince was coming. Even a group of cleaners would tremble with fear.

The Fujiwara family has never given the Prince's sword, Tsubokiri, which symbolizes the crown prince's status, to Gosanjo.
