"The movement... is it big?"
As Zhao Zhen continued to grow, he gradually gained the coercion that an emperor should have.
But even so, when facing Kou Zhun, he was still a little dazed.
Kou Zhun stared, and was about to question Zhao Zhen.
Isn't it big
Seeing Zhao Zhen was a little confused.
Kou Zhun raised his brow slightly, stroked his beard, and thought in secret.
Is the old man that scary
Zhao Zhen showed a dazed look, and Kou Zhun was not good at continuing to accuse Zhao Zhen, so he could only vent his anger on Kou Ji.
"It must be your kid's idea, pulling the official family to play the merchant's way!"
Kou Zhun pointed at Kou Ji and roared loudly.
When Kou Zhun was dealing with government affairs in the palace, he heard a report from the servant in Shishitang that a major event had happened outside the palace.
It is said that Kou Ji, an official in charge of the Ministry of Industry, opened a Jiaozi shop in Bianjing and transported nearly 10 million pennies to Jiaozi shop.
Hearing this news, Kou Zhun was shocked.
He wasn't surprised by the money, but realized that Kou Ji dared to blatantly transport so much money into Bianjing, there must be a backing behind it.
Nearly tens of millions of money and wealth have been transported into Bianjing, and the civil and military lords in Bianjing must be eyeing.
However, he and Zhao Zhen were the only ones who could suppress the nobles of the Manchu dynasty.
He is in the palace, so Zhao Zhen must be in Jiaozipu.
It was precisely because he speculated that Zhao Zhen was in Jiaozipu, so he hurried out in a hurry.
It also made Wang Qinruo, Cao Wei and others see the signs and left early.
Seeing that Kou Zhun had not reprimanded himself, Zhao Zhen was relieved and looked at Kou Ji with sympathy.
Kou Ji lowered his head, allowing Kou Zhun to vent his anger.
I'm afraid Kou Zhun will get sick because of this.
Kou Zhun didn't dare to take Zhao Zhen's anger, so he sent all the evil fire on him, and he could naturally see it.
So he was all cursing Zhao Zhen as Kou Zhun, his left ear went in and his right ear came out, and he didn't hear a word.
Seeing Kou Zhun's scolding more and more fiercely, Zhao Zhen couldn't help admonishing him without any intention of stopping.
Although Kou Ji's performance just now is extremely non-loyal, it doesn't mean that Zhao Zhen can also be non-loyal.
"Master, Kou Ji was forced to ask me to come forward because of my Da Song, and he can't be blamed for this matter."
Hearing this, Kou Zhun paused slowly, and glanced back and forth between Zhao Zhen and Kou Ji, "Is it for the court to use the merchant's way to seek personal gain for himself?"
Facing Kou Zhun's question, Zhao Zhen could not answer, and could only look at Kou Ji.
Kou Ji sighed, knowing that Kou can no longer be concealed, and simply tells it all.
Kou Ji explained to Kou Zhun the purpose of Jiaozipu in detail, as well as the scale of Jiaozipu after it was opened, and the amount of money that Jiaozipu might store in the future.
After speaking, Kou Ji said sincerely: "Grandfather, you said that such an important business, dare you leave it to those merchants?"
Kou Zhun and Zhao Zhen looked astonished after hearing Kou Ji's narration.
Zhao Zhen knew that Jiaozipu was important, but he didn't expect it to be so important.
Kou Zhun only regarded Jiaozipu as a place where Kou Ji made a profit, but he didn't expect that Jiaozipu would be able to control the money of the entire Song Dynasty after it was laid.
For a time, the two of them looked extremely solemn.
Kou Zhun said with a sullen face: "Does a businessman deserve to be in charge of such an important office?"
After a pause, Kou Zhun added: "Those rich and powerful are also not eligible."
Kou Zhun opened his mouth and suddenly raised Jiaozipu to the point where it was equivalent to Yamen.
In Kou Zhun's heart, there must have been the thought of taking Jiaozipu back and handing it over to the court.
Kou Ji spoke, piercing Kou Zhun's thoughts, "Officials, grandfathers, is Jiaozipu not suitable for the court?"
"Why?"
Kou Zhun looked at Kou Ji displeased.
Kou Zhun felt that the implicated business of Sijiaozipu should be taken care of by the court.
In this way, there will be no trouble.
Kou Ji had to make out the rhetoric he used to persuade Chen Lin and convince Kou Zhun.
Speaking of the last, he solemnly said: "Once Jiaozipu is handed over to the court, if the court needs money and a lot of money is needed, and the national treasury is not enough to support it, the court will inevitably issue more Jiaozi, or even over-issue Jiaozi, or even Jiaozi is used as a copper coin.
Once a run was triggered, the imperial court did not have enough money to support it, and it was bound to lose its trust in the world.
When the time comes, Jiaozi will be reduced to waste paper, losing its proper use after its birth.
On the other hand, the society is uneasy. "
What Kou Ji said is not alarmist talk, but there are real examples to learn from.
For example, the treasures of the Ming Dynasty, the Jin Yuan scrolls of the Republic of China...
Hearing this, Kou Zhun frowned and said nothing, as if he was weighing the pros and cons.
Kou Ji glanced at Chen Lin.
Give Chen Lin a look.
Chen Lin understood, sighed, and took a few steps forward, saying: "Kou Gong, Kou Ji's worry is not superfluous. Jiaozi first appeared in Sichuan and Shu, and was controlled by several major merchants in Shuzhong.
They made casual sex, broke their promise to the people, and were attacked by groups of people. "
The reason why Chen Lin helped Kou Ji speak was also to help Zhao Zhen fight for profit.
If Jiaozipu was in charge of the court, Zhao Zhen's Neiku would not even want to see a copper coin.
More importantly, he was unwilling to see Jiao Zipu being taken into the court by Kou Zhun or Liu E, which flatly contributed to the arrogance and ambition of the two.
Kou Zhun frowned when he heard that Jiaozi's promiscuity had caused turmoil.
"Jiaozipu is so troublesome and involves so much, so stop it."
Out of control, or things that are not easy to control, Kou Zhun likes to stifle them in the cradle.
This is not the idea of Kou Zhun alone, almost most of the upper-level people have this idea when dealing with things.
Kou Ji was a little unhappy when he heard this.
I tried my best to get the Jiaozi shop out. If you stopped a word, wouldn't I be in vain
Kou Jiguo broke off, "Grandfather, this is not appropriate. Since some folks have tasted the sweetness of starting Jiaozipu, they will certainly not give up easily. If we do not establish a Jiaozipu, we will guide them to the right path and suppress Those who are ambitious businessmen, Jiaozi will inevitably become a disaster to the court under those businessmen indiscriminately.
Moreover, the establishment of Jiaozipu far outweighed the disadvantages for the court.
In terms of the flooding this time.
Just because of a shortfall in a constant liquidation position, it almost caused hundreds of thousands of Li people to die.
Had it not been for the timely delivery of food by the soldiers and civilians of Baozhou to help the court to relieve the siege, it would be unimaginable later.
Bianjing City is still the case, what about the place
Tens of thousands of people die in local disasters. A large part of this is due to ineffective disaster relief.
Or maybe it's because of the local officials who deducted the disaster relief money from the disaster victims.
If there was Jiaozipu, it would be different.
The imperial court only needs to hand over the money needed for disaster relief to Jiaozipu.
Send a quick horse, take the Jiaozi issued by Jiaozi shop, and go to the local Jiaozi shop to directly withdraw money for disaster relief.
It can avoid the loss of vehicles and horses in the middle, and the time wasted.
It can also prevent deductions by local officials.
Not only that, once there is a shortage of food for local disaster relief, the imperial court can also entrust Jiaozipu in various places to collect food from various places and transport them to the disaster-stricken areas.
The payment of military allowances and the supply of military supplies in the border areas can also be achieved through the help of Jiaozi..."
Kou Ji was eloquent and explained to Kou Zhun many of the benefits of making a child, from military affairs to people's livelihood.
He is not Mu Chong and others, the understanding of Jiaozi still exists on the surface.
As Kou Zhun listened to Kou Ji's explanation, his brow furrowed deeper and deeper.
It's okay if Kou Zhun doesn't understand it, but Kou Ji's explanation is very straightforward, and he understands it too.
It was precisely because he understood that his brows were frowned together, and he couldn't stretch it for a long time.
He can understand the benefits of Jiaozipu mentioned by Kou Ji.
But once the imperial court borrowed Jiaozipu for work, then Jiaozipu will gradually become a big yamen influencing all aspects of the Song Dynasty.
Even if there are no officials in Jiaozipu, the positions of stewards and shopkeepers in Jiaozipu are not lost to those officials in Yamen.
Once Jiaozipu has been laid throughout the Song Dynasty, it is not an exaggeration to call Jiaozipu the outer court.
More importantly, once the imperial court adopts Jiaozipu to do things, many of the original governance methods and methods will be completely overthrown.
The imperial court must reformulate new ways and methods of governance.
This is a very difficult thing for Kou Zhun.
Kou Zhun has been in governance for many years, and he has long been accustomed to the existing governance methods of the imperial court.
Not everyone can have the courage to break the old and welcome the new.
Kou Zhun frowned and stood still without saying a word.
Kou Ji and Zhao Zhen did not speak either, they just stared at him quietly.
Zhao Zhen accepts new things much faster than Kou Zhun.
After a full hour.
Kou Zhun slowly returned to his senses, his gaze fell on Kou Ji and Zhao Zhen, his expressions were extremely complicated.
Kou Zhun didn't say a word, he sighed, and with his hands on his back, he left the third floor of Jiaozipu in a slightly desolate manner.
Looking at the back of Kou Zhun's departure, Zhao Zhen felt a bit of sorrow and grief inexplicably, "Taishi, this is... what's wrong?"
Kou Ji pondered for a while, then sighed: "I'm old..."
Kou Ji could clearly feel that what he said just now had a huge impact on Kou Zhun, making it difficult for Kou Zhun to calm down for a long time.
After Kou Zhun learned that he could borrow new things like Jiaozi to make his administration more convenient, he would inevitably give birth to a trace of heroic twilight.
Kou Ji looked at Zhao Zhen and said, "Go back to the palace. Go back and help me with my grandfather."
Zhao Zhen nodded without hesitation.
Kou Zhun dispelled the gangsters and officials. After they went out, they would definitely announce that the owner of Jiaozipu was Zhao Zhen.
Before Zhao Zhen voluntarily withdrew from Jiaozipu's elements, no one would go to Jiaozipu to make trouble.
Zhao Zhen does not need to stay here anymore.
Kou Ji bowed his hand to Zhao Zhen, "Thank you..."
Zhao Zhen nodded and left Jiaozipu accompanied by Chen Lin.
Those Yu Qianwei wearing plain clothes in Jiaozipu also followed Zhao Zhen to leave quietly.
Jiaozipu's money-saving business did not stop because of their departure.
Instead, it becomes more lively.
Ten million dollars is not a small sum.
It can't be done in three or two hours.
More and more carriages and horses carrying money arrived in front of Jiaozipu, making Jiaozipu more prosperous.
Kou Ji didn't want to pay any more attention. He was worried about Kou Zhun, fearing that Kou Zhun would be stunned by the strong medicine he gave him.
Kou Ji stayed at Jiaozipu until the evening, and then left quietly after all the money was deposited in Jiaozipu.
Depositing 10 million yuan of money in Jiaozipu will attract the attention of everyone in the world. As long as Jiaozipu does not die in the future, it is inevitable that it will flourish.
Mu Chong intends to hold a celebration party in Fanlou and invites Kou Ji to go, but Kou Ji tactfully refuses.
Back to the house.
Entering the main hall, Kou Ji looked surprised.
I saw Kou Zhun, who was supposed to be in the palace, lying dormant in front of the brazier in the main hall.
Kou Ji stepped into the inner hall suspiciously and whispered, "Grandfather?"
At Kou Ji's call, Kou Zhun slowly opened his eyes.
Kou Ji questioned: "Grandfather, you are not in the palace, why are you going back to the palace?"
Kou Zhun said blankly: "It's uncomfortable to stay in the palace..."
Kou Ji looked stunned.
Kou Zhun glanced at him and hummed: "The old man has his own grandson, and he doesn't need the grandson of others to comfort him."
Hearing this, Kou Ji was taken aback for a moment, and then laughed blankly.
He originally thought that Kou Zhun came back to the palace because he was uncomfortable in the palace, but he didn't expect that it was Zhao Zhen who had received his advice.
"Grandfather wait a minute, I'll get some wine and food, let's have a good chat with grandparents..."
Kou Ji bowed his hand and withdrew from the main hall.
When I arrived in the kitchen, I ordered the cook in the house to prepare some mutton, cut it into slices, and made a soup base with some dried medicinal materials and sent it to the main hall.
It didn't take long for the grandfather and grandson to cook lamb in the main hall.
After eating a few slices of mutton and taking a sip of warm wine, Kou Zhun put down his chopsticks and stared at Kou Ji and asked, "What are you doing for making such a monster?"
Kou Zhun was not happy to return, but he was still concerned about Jiaozipu.
Kou Ji chewed on the mutton and said, "I didn't make Jiaozi, but the merchants in Sichuan and Sichuan.
I just found out one step earlier than others. "
"What's the purpose?"
Kou Zhun asked.
He doesn't think Koj will do something without purpose.
Kou Ji did not hide it, and said frankly: "The purpose is to promote some of the craftsmanship of our Ministry of Industry."
Kou Zhun stared and gave Kou Ji the look you were playing with the old man.
Kou Ji explained: "Many crafts were not valued by people when they were born.
At the beginning of the birth of some crafts that benefit the country, most of them disappeared until they disappeared.
Some crafts, even if the imperial court vigorously promoted them, they could not be accepted by the people up and down the Song Dynasty.
Such as Pittsburgh movable type printing.
It has been more than a month since it was promoted by the imperial court, but now in the Song Dynasty, only our Kou Mansion has a large-scale Bishi movable type printing workshop.
In the rest of the printing workshops, only a few people use it.
Most people still use block printing. "
