On the way.
Chen Lin's old hand kept flicking over Kou Ji's shoulder, as if he was about to squeeze his neck at any time.
His voice was low and hoarse like a ghost, and he measured it in Kou Ji's ears: "Kou Ji, the more you want to be..."
Kou Ji didn't seem to see Chen Lin's hand passing over his shoulder. He carried Zhao Zhen's inscription, and while walking forward, he calmly said: "Everything I do is approved by the official. "
Chen Lin squinted her eyes and said coldly: "The official has forgiven the sin you committed, but the official has not forgiven your sin of deceiving the king."
Kou Ji took a pause, looked sideways at Chen Lin, and asked seriously: "When did I deceive you?"
Chen Lin took small steps and walked in front of Kou Ji, with a gloomy expression: "You deceived the official family first, established the emperor's pro-army, and now intend to use the official name to make money.
It's a soldier, it's money and food...
Obviously it is a plot to be unruly.
You use the hands of the officials to achieve your ulterior motives, not to deceive the emperor, so what is it? "
Kou Ji stared at Chen Lin in front of him, frowning and said: "Everything I do is for officials."
"For the officials?"
Chen Lin sneered and said, "If you really do it for officials, then you should not do anything."
Kou Ji stared at Chen Lin and said nothing.
Chen Lin continued: "Your grandfather is now invading the court and the public, and it is easy to follow Cao Mengde's words."
Kou Ji said solemnly: "My grandfather is loyal to the official family."
Chen Lin sneered: "Our family knows that your grandfather is loyal to the official family.
But the power in his hands has reached its peak.
Half a step further forward will threaten officials.
You are gathering soldiers and earning money. You are pushing your grandfather half the way. "
Kou Ji glared at Chen Lin and snorted coldly: "I have the same brotherhood with the officials."
Chen Lin said disdainfully: "Taizu and Taizong are still brothers..."
Kou Ji glared at Chen Lin and said in a deep voice: "My grandfather and I are both innocent. Why do you say that I am pushing my grandfather the rest of the way?"
Chen Lin said gloomily: "Power and strength have reached a certain peak. Even if you are unwilling to sit in a high position, some restless people will push you forward."
Chen Lin's words were very blunt, Kou Ji listened very harshly, but he had to admit that Chen Lin was telling the truth.
Kou Ji pondered for a while and said, "You understand the situation in Baozhou.
If the soldiers in Baozhou can't become the son of the emperor, what will happen to them, you should understand. "
Chen Lin said unhurriedly: "Our family understands naturally, so our family didn't say much about the establishment of the emperor's pro-military in Baozhou.
But now that you want to profit from the official name, our family has to stop it. "
Kou Ji said solemnly: "I didn't profit from the official name.
The reason why the official official handwriting is needed is to send money to the official. "
Chen Lin didn't believe Kou Ji's words at all. He sarcastically said, "Will you be so kind?"
Kou Ji asked: "Do you know Jiaozi?"
Chen Lin was taken aback first, raised her brows slightly, and said, "Jiaozi in Shuzhong?"
Kou Ji nodded slowly.
Chen Lin thoughtfully said: "When Jiaozi appeared, my family noticed.
The Mu's and other major merchants were insatiable, and when the troubles were caused by Jiaozi, our family had the intention to disclose the matter to the inner court, intending to let the inner court intervene.
It's just that we haven't waited for our family to send someone to reveal it to the inner court.
The manpower of your Kou Mansion has arrived in Sichuan Mansion.
Let the people in our family watch the changes. "
After a pause, Chen Lin said in a faint tone: "We heard from the people in our family that you have made no less than tens of millions of dollars through the crisis in Sichuan.
The method of making money is the best in the world. "
Chen Lin's gaze fell on Kou Ji's face, and said lightly: "Our family doesn't lie to you. The reason why our family thinks that Kou's mansion will be unruly is because of this tens of millions of money.
Ten million dollars of money is enough for you to buy hundreds of thousands of soldiers! "
Kou Ji frowned and said, "The money I got is useful for its own sake, but it will never be used to buy soldiers.
Besides, no matter how much money I make, that is my skill.
I didn't steal, rob, or embezzle, and every point I got was clean.
Don't say it's 10 million pens, even if it's ten million pens, I take it with confidence and no need to worry about it. "
Chen Lin slowly widened her eyes, and said in a weird manner: "Ten million pennies, Kou Shi Lang is so loud!"
Kou Ji angrily said: "Can you let me finish talking?"
Chen Lin sneered and said, "Okay, our family will give you time and let you finish talking."
When Kou Ji saw Chen Lin sneer, he knew that no matter what he said, Chen Lin would judge with a scrutiny mentality.
But Kou Ji didn't care.
He had a belly draft long ago, and he believed that his belly draft could conquer Chen Lin.
Kou Ji pursed his mouth and said, "You know Jiaozi, and you know about Jiaozipu in Shuzhong. Then you should know how much money Jiaozi makes."
Chen Lin sneered at the corners of her mouth and said, "Jiaozi can make money? How did our family see that the major merchants who opened Jiaozi shops not only did not make money, but also lost a lot of money. Some people even lost their families because of this.
Hearing Chen Lin's words, Kou Ji was slightly taken aback, a little bit dumbfounded.
He thought that Chen Lin knew Jiaozi very well, but he didn't expect that Chen Lin knew only some fur.
Seeing Chen Lin's ridicule on his face, he couldn't help but sneered: "Several major businesses didn't make money, and some even broke their families because of me.
If I don't take action, if you think about it, what will it look like? "
Chen Lin thought about Kou Ji's words, the smile on her face was a little stiff.
Kou Ji continued: "If I don't make a move, those big businesses will surely make money without losing money. In the end, only the people will suffer, and the people who have lost their homes are also the people."
Chen Lin looked a little ugly and said, "Taishi and others will not sit idly by and will not let the people suffer."
Kou Ji sneered after learning what Chen Lin was just now, but did not speak.
Chen Lin's face was even more ugly.
He is not a stubborn person, nor is he a person who likes to be stubborn.
After the run on Jiaozipu in Shuzhong, the people overthrew the Chuanfu government office, but the court did not get news. It is not difficult to see that several major merchants in Jiaozipu in Shuzhong have bought into the local government.
Even if the court sent someone to investigate, it couldn't find out much.
In the end, it was the imperial court who paid the money to clean up the mess, and it was the Zhou family who had escaped to the Liao State.
The other major businesses did not hurt at all.
Chen Lin didn't want to talk about this topic, he snorted: "Inspecting and dealing with corruption, that is the responsibility of the Ministry of Criminal Justice and has nothing to do with our family."
Kou Ji smiled calmly: "I didn't ask you to investigate corruption, nor did I talk to you about corruption. I've been talking about Jiaozi from beginning to end."
Chen Lin gritted her teeth and said: "What if Jiaozi makes money? The Jiaozi shop in Shuzhong has been closed. The people of Sichuan Prefecture no longer trust Jiaozi."
Kou Ji still looked indifferent, "The Jiaozi shop in Shuzhong is closed. It was my instruction. They made too many mistakes and lacked greed to make a run.
After I reformulated the rules, there will be no such troubles in the future.
Not only will there be no trouble, but Jiaozi will get bigger and bigger.
At present, Jiaozipu has been set up in Sichuan Prefecture, Jiangning Prefecture, and Bianjing City.
It can only be opened after the official signboard is hung up.
There will be a large number of gold, silver and copper coins stored in Jiaozipu. "
When Chen Lin heard this, she still disagreed.
Kou Ji smiled and dropped a blockbuster, "It only takes half a month, and the savings in the three Jiaozi shops will exceed the national treasury."
Kou Ji is not talking big.
The reason why he dared to say that Jiaozipu can save more than the national treasury in half a month.
It is not because the savings of the three Jiaozi shops will reach a terrible figure within half a month.
It was because the treasury had been empty for many years, and in the past one or two years, the censorship division was abolished, and half of the trilateral army was abolished, and only a little surplus was left.
Currently, there are less than two million deposits in the treasury.
There should have been more, but the court spent some to appease the abolished Xiangjun soldiers.
That's why he dared to say this.
When Chen Lin heard this, her eyes widened in an instant.
You know, the monthly profit of the court saltworks is only one million.
How could he not be surprised that the three small Jiaozi shops can absorb more than twice the profits of the court saltworks in just half a month.
Kou Ji was very satisfied with Chen Lin's reaction. His mouth curled up and his smile brightly continued: "I plan to pave Jiaozipu to the 17 roads under the jurisdiction of the court within three years."
There were originally fifteen roads in the Song Dynasty court. Under Kou Zhun’s proposal, after adding Dongping Road and Xiping Road, it became 17 roads.
Kou Ji stared at Chen Lin and dropped a bigger blockbuster again, "Once Jiaozipu is laid to seventeen roads, the annual savings of Jiaozipu can be equal to the tax collected by the imperial court."
Chen Lin's pupils shrank into a dot in an instant, her lips trembled, and she shouted, "Impossible..."
Kou Ji smiled indifferently: "Nothing is impossible... The appearance of Jiaozi is to facilitate large-scale transactions. At that time, large-scale transactions, and even transactions that exceed the usual amount of money on the street, will use Jiaozi transactions. .
They want to use my Jiaozi, so naturally they have to store the corresponding copper coins in Jiaozipu.
At that time, Jiaozipu's savings will increase day by day.
The tax is equal to that of the imperial court, and it is easy. "
Chen Lin was trembling all over when she heard this.
If it really reaches the kind of situation Kou Ji said, the person in charge of Jiaozipu will be an existence that threatens the throne of Zhao Zhen.
Kou Ji smiled and asked, "You wouldn't be naive to think that the money in the hands of the people is not as much as the tax from the court, right?"
Chen Lin shook her head abruptly.
Of course he would not have this naive idea.
From the beginning of the Great Song Dynasty to the present day, the amount of copper coins issued every year is around 30 million.
Decades have passed, and the number of copper coins cast by the imperial coin workshops held by civilians has exceeded one hundred thousand coins.
In this regard, the demand for copper coins among the people has not yet reached saturation.
Otherwise, there will not be so many workshops that mint private money, and there will be no iron money.
It can be seen that the stock of private copper coins is huge.
Kou Ji continued: "A large amount of private money is in the hands of wealthy households and businessmen. Ninety percent of the wealthy households are also doing business.
As long as they do business, they can't do without the convenience of handing over children. "
Kou Ji had said so clearly that Chen Lin hardly needed to think about it, and understood that once the handover was approved by the people, the people would almost not hesitate to exchange the money in the hand for the transaction.
Jiaozipu’s annual savings exceed the imperial tax revenue. This is not an assumption, but something that will happen.
At the thought of this, Chen Lin was shocked, and he clattered his teeth.
Kou Ji saw Chen Lin gritted his teeth and remained silent. He knew that the fire was almost over. He smiled but said, "If Jiaozipu can be laid in more than 200 states of the Song Dynasty, it will be even more powerful."
"No way!"
Chen Lin blurted out.
Kou Ji smiled and asked, "What can't you do?"
Chen Lin stared at Kou Ji and roared loudly: "Jiaozi can't be in your hands."
Kou Ji expected Chen Lin to say this, and he smiled calmly: "Who do you think is more appropriate? The court? My grandfather? Or the queen mother?"
Kou Ji looked at Chen Lin and said, "As for you... you don't have the qualifications and the skills."
Chen Lin gritted her teeth and said: "Then let the court take charge."
Kou Ji laughed aloud and said: "Let the court take charge, and then become the money-gathering machine of the corrupt officials. Eventually a run was triggered, the rich merchants rioted, and then they rose up?"
"Take care of..."
"Lv Yijian won't find out thousands of corrupt officials if it is useful."
Kou Ji stared at Chen Lin and said earnestly: "Jiaozi is no better than others. It is not difficult for corrupt officials to search for people's fats, thousands, tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands. But if you want to exceed a million, then It's hard.
Jiaozi is different.
Once Jiaozi is laid to the states.
The officials who have jurisdiction over the child want to embezzle, and if they use their hands, it will cost millions or even tens of millions.
If tens of millions of consecutive shortfalls appeared, the court would not be able to bear it. "
Chen Lin gritted her teeth and lowered her head sadly.
Chen Lin knew about the corruption of court officials. He knew that once court officials took charge of Jiaozipu, they would be corrupt.
Therefore, it is indeed inappropriate to propose that the court be in charge of Jiaozipu.
He did not stupidly suggest that Kou Zhun and Liu E should be in charge of Jiaozi.
If Kou Zhun was in charge of Jiaozi, then he would not be half a step away from Zhao Zhen's throne.
It's within reach.
If Liu E is in charge of Jiaozi, with her ambition, she will definitely come to the front again.
At that time, Kou Zhun would not necessarily be her opponent.
Zhao Zhen will become a puppet in her hands.
Neither the former nor the latter is what Chen Lin wants to see.
Chen Lin pondered for a long time, staring at Kou Ji and questioning: "The money you want to give to the official family should belong to Jiaozipu.
How many members do the officials occupy in Jiaozipu? "
Kou Ji said calmly: "Originally it was 30%, but the officials were unwilling, so it became 20%."
Chen Lin stared, "So few?"
He turned dark, staring at Kou Ji's gritted teeth and said: "You have a monopoly on eight elements... If you want to control the world's money by this, you really are trying to do something wrong."
Kou Ji rolled his eyes and said angrily: "I only account for two elements."
Chen Lin was taken aback and asked: "Where is the remaining 60%?"
Kou Ji spread his hands and said, "It was given to the Mu family, the Qian family, and the Meng family."
Chen Lin angrily said: "A group of humble businessmen, what right do they have to occupy six elements in Jiaozipu? Our family does not allow it!"
