Wife's Observation Log

Chapter 41 Changning Nine Years (3)

The affairs of the cabinet are very easy to handle under the premise that Xie Zhen is in power and has just killed two groups of heroes.

After all, Lan Wei did not join the cabinet, Xie Zhen simply did not tell her that the head of the Tiangongyuan should have participated in political affairs like other reformed "courts", but let her go to her part-time new Yamen Jingwei Lido with peace of mind. Walking around, for the time being, the main work will be to command the colleagues of the Jingwei.Xie Zhen also directly pointed out that some people in Xuanwuwei were responsible for guarding Lan Wei at work.

When these arrangements are in place and the cabinet is functioning, Xie Zhen gradually has a lot of free time, but Lan Wei starts to go to work, so he has to wait for Lan Wei to rest and take a bath to be gentle.

Therefore, the banknote promotion that I said I would go out of the palace to witness before, I had to wait until the rest day before I could go and see it with ease.After getting out of the car, the guards on duty also dispersed into the crowd. Xie Zhen pointed to the second floor of the restaurant, and then pointed to the apparently newly renovated Kuomen shop opposite, signaling Lan Wei to choose one of the two.

Lan Wei took Jing Yun by the hand. Since she entered the palace, everyone around Xie Zhen liked the new master of the palace more and more.Maybe because Lan Wei is relatively more friendly, Jing Yun and Sanhuo, no matter who they are, can make fun of them casually when they get to know Lan Wei, but obviously even if they regard Xie Zhen as their relatives, they still treat them as the role of the patriarch , it is impossible to completely remove the awe.

Of course Xie Zhen is not jealous, she thinks she doesn't like to be made fun of by nature.The better Lan Wei and Jing Yun get along, the more Xie Zhen is happy to see it succeed. After all, if Xie Zhen can live to say 25 years later and smoothly send Jing Yun to the throne, their elderly wives will have to see this. The face of the imperial sister.

"It's not dangerous, let's go to the ticket office and look at it." Lan Wei and Jing Yun discussed and gave a common answer.

Xie Zhen naturally agreed, and soon, this company seemed to be cutting-edge and impetuous, but in fact it had a deep background—the interest rate was set by the people in Dayan who knew the money and food situation best, the owner was supported by Yao Chengsi, and the land was given by Xie Zhen—— The ticket number, began to sing.

First, there was noise inside the ticket office, causing pedestrians to stop. After a while, a person with a few copper coins on his shoulders and a large basket of money struggled to come out from inside and walked westward without looking back—— Or move it.

It is not too long ago when iron money was used in the Song Dynasty. The old man has also heard of the spectacle of hiring a strong man to carry the money to buy silk in the street. Because of the poor currency system in the late Yuan Dynasty, many people contradictoryly believe that silver is rare. However, he didn't trust Baiyin, and in the end, many old people regarded the story of carrying money as a rumored evidence of the prosperity of the Song Dynasty to tell their descendants. Therefore, even people in Yanjing couldn't help but stop and watch this scene.

The uncles in the capital were obviously enthusiastic and a little good, so one of them stepped forward and asked the man what was going on.

"My brother was foolishly deceived by this profiteer. He exchanged his income for several years for a few thin pieces of paper, and said that he would travel far away to take it to the south to exchange for good things. I hurried to them while he was away and said, It can be regarded as being rescued.”

The uncle said "Oh" twice, the man was tired from holding a big basket, so he put the copper coin basket on the side of the road and sat down on the basket, looking a bit vigilant.The uncle was supposed to stand by the side of the road after asking the question, but seeing him behave like this, he couldn't help asking him again: "You also have seven or eight copper coins here, if you change it to ten taels of silver, it will be much easier to carry, why? Which one won't change it for you?"

The man stared: "Why don't you change it? The profiteer said that he deposits and withdraws silver at will, but the more casual he is, the more I don't believe him. I love copper coins for whatever silver we ordinary people use."

"But your brother is going to the south to buy things. It's not easy to bring copper coins. You can't let him walk around with a basket on his back like you. He won't be able to come back after ten years." A middle-aged woman, she was well-dressed, and she was carrying a basket filled with cakes, which was the foot of the audience just now. The man didn't respond, so she continued to ask, "Hey, do you think you can exchange the paper with copper coins here?" Then change it to silver, my niece is also very thoughtful, she always says whether to use silver dimes or silver dimes, she is exhausted from moving around every day."

"Your daughter is exhausted, but my son is not so squeamish." The man said so, but his expression relaxed a lot. After a while, a frail boy squeezed out from the crowd in the west and shouted "Dad "A face full of disapproval.

The woman smiled narrowly, and she didn't rush to chatter with her southern accent, but it made the man's face very uncomfortable: "My daughter is in the army, I don't know who will be more delicate?"

"The dramatic conflict is well arranged." Lan Wei whispered in Xie Zhen's ear, scratching her breath.

Xie Zhen also felt the same way, those who did things deserved to be commended.

The boy argued loudly with his father, the lines were cleverly designed, and he clamored and clamored out the model of the bank account and the interest rate. The crowd naturally talked about how to save money in another place and make money, even though many of them did not believe in heaven’s will. Drop the pie.

In the end, the old man chimed in: "When your brother said it, I understood a lot, and I thought about it too. You said that he was a profiteer, and you exchanged that banknote with someone. Isn't it true that you can exchange real gold and silver? In order to save time, the good deeds have been implemented in Shanxi, but we Yanjing people have not caught up with the trend. I am not talking about you. You are talking about profiteers, I think they are very honest. Woolen cloth."

The play here was over, and a sad-faced scholar came out of the crowd over there, grabbed the frail boy and asked him: "My dear brother, what does his banknote look like?"

The frail boy half snatched the copper coins from the man, ran into the ticket number and came out quickly, holding a brand new banknote in his hand: "Here, that's it, look at the banknote here, and then at the seal here It is said that they belong to their family. It is said that the banknotes of several banknotes in Shanxi are of this type, and the banknotes are also interoperable. Only the seal is different, but you can also exchange money at other banknotes.”

"Alas, alas, I blamed my aunt's house by mistake." The scholar then told a story, saying that his father had a strange disease and needed acupuncture and medicine for a long time. It is said that the aunt who is in the wind and water, did not expect that the aunt would return a letter containing such banknotes lightly. The scholar's father also used banknotes at the end of the Yuan Dynasty. Everyone knows that at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, it was as worthless as waste paper. , and now even the burning fire dislikes the smell, and I am very sad immediately, thinking that my aunt is mocking and perfunctory.

"Then you can replace it quickly, and see how much money your aunt sent. It would be great if you can rely on it to tide over the difficulties." Others suggested this one after another.

The scholar quickly brought the banknotes, walked into the bank, and came out in a daze.

"What's wrong with brother?"

The scholar glanced back at the ticket number, gritted his teeth and said, "Your brother, you were the one who pointed me out, and I did this. Although the words were not revealing, everyone present had comforting suggestions. How could Xiaosheng hide it on purpose."

He opened the bookcase that he carried over to carry the money when he went home to get the banknotes, and there was half a box of silver ingots in it, which caught the eyes of the onlookers.

"Aunt Ling is too arrogant..."

After the scene was sung and played, it was hard for those present not to talk about it.

When Xie Zhen left the scene, he said to Lan Wei: "In a month or two, we will arrange several runs, so that some people who don't know why will flock to exchange the banknotes back into cash, and then ask those who have not exchanged the money to expire. After receiving the interest, I consciously showed off to the neighbors, and the matter of the banknotes will be stable."

Lan Wei nodded, and asked after a while: "Who handled this matter...can you tell me?"

Xie Zhen was surprised that she would be curious: "There are quite a few of them, they are in the army, you should know Tangli."

"I think the planners can consider writing some drama books to entertain everyone's life."

"Maybe you can pay attention to it." Xie Zhen responded casually, thinking that there are good novels or dramas on the market, and it would not be bad to help them publish them.

For some reason, today Lan Wei and Jing Yun often ask questions that they would not normally ask. Jing Yun didn't dare to ask Xie Zhen after he asked, but Lan Wei didn't have this fear. At the outrageous place, Jing Yun tugged at her sleeve: "Your Majesty, after you use the cabinet to divide powers, will you use the cabinet as a secretary to defend the imperial power in the future? Or should you let go?"

They were sitting in the box of the restaurant that Lan Wei didn't choose just now, and the guards were guarding outside. In fact, the afternoon tea was almost finished, and they should leave, but when Lan Wei asked such a question, it was obvious that Xie Zhen couldn't go outside answer her.

Xie Zhen didn't intend to avoid this question, but she had doubts: "Will this affect your decision to stay?"

"Ah? No, it has nothing to do with this."

"Okay, that's just for Jing Yun, I don't agree with the method of inheritance of monarchy, but power must be centralized within several generations, and the throne must be inherited by women."

When she said this, Lan Wei's eyes showed that she understood. In fact, Lan Wei has grown rapidly in the past few years. It is not like before that she needs to explain everything clearly, but after all, there is still Jing Yun here. Xie Zhen sighed and hugged Jing Yun. On his own lap: "Jing Yun grew up in the palace, and he has never seen those women who are forced by life to earn wages and bear weights to surpass men, but they can't have their own money to control women; nor have they experienced the sadness of being so smart and not being expected. But you will definitely see it in the future, maybe from your sister Zhang Lin, maybe beside your sister Chengsi, and then go to a place closer to people's livelihood."

"Now the harvest is a little better, and most of the people only need food and clothing. Both men and women need to weave and farm. The main beams of the family are already shared. Judging by today, both men and women are rotten, the only thing that has become a bridle on a woman's head."
