Crown Prince of the Empire, I quit!

In front of Qiancai was a mountain of silver bars.

Each silver bar is as thick as an arm.

There were several craftsmen nearby, grunting as they carried it up from a small pond nearby.

There were also a few people working hard, constantly burning silver bars.

After burning, they didn't even look at it and threw it directly into the pool next to them to cool down.

"This is a breakthrough in the workshop's electrolytic silver technology. From now on, we can extract silver from various ores."

Qin Ming explained everything Qian Cai saw.

"Does this mean that our induced births will increase significantly?"

Qian Cai spoke tentatively.

Qin Ming exchanged glances with several highly skilled craftsmen beside him.

They immediately stepped forward and said with disdain:

"It's not a huge increase, it's dozens of times more."

"How much? Dozens of times?!"

When he heard this number, Qian Cai took a few steps back.

He knew that technology was very important to the entire dynasty, but he didn't expect it to bring such big changes to them.

"This crazy production of silver will probably cause the value of silver to gradually depreciate. Before it depreciates, I hope you can take charge of the Ministry of Revenue and use this silver well while it is still valuable."

It was at this time that Qin Ming finally explained the reason why he brought Qian Cai with him. Qian Cai was the Minister of Revenue who was in charge of the national finances.

No one was better at managing money than him. Every day he would think about how to break a copper coin into two petals.

And now Qin Ming directly gave him financial freedom.

"Really? You can give me all of this?"

Qian Cai couldn't believe what Qin Ming said. Now he felt that the burden on him suddenly became lighter.

They were originally planning to save money in various ways so that the profits reported to their accounts department next quarter would be slightly higher, but now they don't have to worry about that at all.

Qin Ming smiled and patted his shoulder.

"Next, it might not be millions of taels of silver, but thousands or even hundreds of millions. I hope you can make good use of it."

"Don't worry, I will not disappoint you."

"What about us? We'll need a lot of money for research in the future."

At this time, several highly skilled craftsmen nearby immediately spoke up to fight for benefits for themselves. After all, they were the ones who developed the technology and put it into practice.

Now when Qian Cai turned around and looked at the craftsmen, a big smile appeared on his face.

"Don't worry, we will be best brothers from now on. As long as you can keep giving me money, I will do my best to approve any research funding for you."

"Of course, excessive waste is definitely not acceptable."

“It certainly won’t be wasted.”

After everyone had discussed all this, the conflict between Qian Cai and the workshop was immediately resolved.

After all, many conflicts are caused by insufficient money.

Now there was enough money to go around and even so much left over, which naturally made them all harmonious.

After they discussed for a while, Qin Ming also brought out the money and several carriages with him.

The carriages were loaded with silver bars, which would be sent to the Ministry of Revenue for smelting and then released into the market.

Some were directly sent to the imperial bank as reserves to be used at any time for settlement when conducting trade with other countries.

"Actually, I have one more thing for you to do."

At this time, Qin Ming finally started talking about another main topic of today.

After hearing what Qin Ming said, Qian Cai, who was standing beside him, immediately patted his chest and said to him:

"Your Majesty, tell me what you want. I will help you with whatever it is."

"It's like this. Recently, I want the Ministry of Revenue to use money to overturn the stall of Xishu. Do you have any ideas?"

"Food, ore, salt, anything related to food, clothing, housing and transportation, I can use silver to drive up the price to the sky. By then, they will be begging for mercy."

Qian Cai is indeed a talented person and he quickly grasped the key points.

He shared the same idea as Qin Ming: food, clothing, housing and transportation are the lifeblood of a dynasty at all times.

Now they have countless silver in their hands, and the key is that this silver has not yet begun to depreciate on a large scale.

After mastering the electrolytic silver technology, Qin Ming prepared to first deal a heavy economic blow to Xishu.

With Liu Mian and himself taking action together, Western Shu will soon be unable to bear it.

"When does it begin?"

After getting the other party's promise, Qin Ming also asked about the exact date.

"I'll go see how much silver was delivered today."

Qian Cai ran to the carriage and asked someone to hand over the light policy to him. After taking a quick look, he returned to Qin Ming.

"We can start tonight. Their food prices will be ruined within three days. I can take my time with the rest, but the prices of various other commodities will collapse in less than two weeks."

Qin Ming was extremely satisfied after hearing what he said. There is a saying that goes, "Every profession has its own expertise," and Qian Cai is such a professional.

"That's right, go ahead and do it. I'm going to expand the production scale in the next few days, and I'll give you more money then."

"Really? Thank you very much, Your Majesty."

Qian Cai was very excited.

He loved silver the most, and now he felt extremely happy to be able to swim in the ocean of silver.

That night.

A convoy of trains quickly arrived at the railway station in the capital.

They hurriedly loaded dozens of banknotes onto the train, and after boarding the train, they headed towards Western Sichuan.

Qian Cai is very efficient in his work. These are the people he arranged. As long as these troublemakers enter Xishu, they will be in big trouble within three days.

And this time, because the order was given by Qin Ming himself, Qian Cai was very concerned about this mission and even arranged several of his students to go there.

Western Shu, which was still preparing for war and waiting for Qin Ming's arrival, would never have thought of this.

Before Qin Ming's men arrived, the attack on them had already begun in an invisible place, and they didn't even have a way to fight back against this attack.

If the base and scope of Xishu were slightly larger, Qian Cai might not have told Qin Ming that he was confident.

But the size of their territory is only the size of two counties in Daqian.

Riding a fast horse, you can travel from beginning to end in five or six days.

Such a small place is enough for them to quickly show their strength and see results.

At the same time, Qin Ming also received good news that night.

Liu Yueli entered the harem late at night with a letter in her hand.

"Your Majesty, the reply from the Western Region Alliance has arrived. They are willing to make way for you to advance."

"They also said that if you need it, all the Western Alliance forces are willing to lend a hand."

Hearing this, the corners of Qin Ming's mouth slowly rose.

Things turned out just as he expected.
