Chapter 137
Only Han Sheng said with a serious face: "It is Ma Shilong in Ningxia!"

"Ah..." Cao Huachun couldn't help being surprised when he heard this, even though he was very powerful.

You know, today's Ma Shilong is the Prime Minister Xibeiqin Wang Dajun, who was bestowed with the Shangfang Sword by the former Emperor Chongzhen.The relationship with Sun Chengzong is also very good, and his influence almost spreads throughout the entire frontier army.

Hu Guang inherited the memory of the former Emperor Chongzhen, so he naturally knew this Ma Shilong.After a little recollection, I suddenly realized that Ma Shilong really had the help of a god, and his rapid promotion all the way up was nothing short of a miracle.

Han Shengcai was afraid that the emperor would not believe him, so he explained in detail: "This Ma Shilong was born in martial arts, and he is a capable person. Therefore, when he was serving as a guerrilla in the Xuanfu, he was favored by them and became their representative in the army. , is only 34 years old and already in a high position."

Hu Guang nodded when he heard this, Ma Shilong's promotion is indeed a miracle in Daming.Thinking about it carefully, it seems that he didn't have any special credit. On the contrary, Liuhe suffered a disastrous defeat, but it didn't have much impact on his official career. Even if he lost power for a while, he would recover quickly.If there is no interest group behind him to support him, the devil will believe it!

Seeing the emperor nodding his head, Han Sheng believed that he had revealed the big news, so he couldn't help but feel a little surprised, so he continued: "This Ma Shilong is indeed a capable person, but His Majesty can let someone investigate, but he has made no contribution to the war against the captives." , because he is the representative of the Shanxi Merchants in the army."

These words were similar to what Hu Guang thought just now, and he nodded slightly again immediately, as expected!If Hu Guang remembered the history of later generations, he would definitely confirm this idea further.

In the original history, Ma Shilong returned to his hometown soon after the war, so he did not appear in the war against the captives.On the contrary, he performed very well in the war against the Mongol Tartars.

Moreover, Ma Shilong's family got along very well after the Qing Dynasty entered the customs.A large group of commander-in-chief and admirals are very valued by Kangxi.

Hu Guang suddenly thought of a very serious problem, his face turned serious, and immediately asked: "Where is Sun Chengzong? At the beginning, Sun Chengzong also strongly recommended Ma Shilong. Is there any problem with Sun Chengzong?"

If Sun Chengzong also has problems, then the matter will be serious, because almost all military forces except the capital are controlled by Ma Shilong and Sun Chengzong.Compared with Ma Shilong, Sun Chengzong has a greater influence.

Fortunately, Han Sheng shook his head after hearing this and said, "No, Mr. Sun appreciates Ma Shilong's talent, and there is no conflict of interest between the two of them. Caomin remembers that Shanxi merchants used to respect Mr. Sun, but he rejected him!"

When Hu Guang heard this, he was relieved.It should be that I was too nervous. Sun Chengzong has been fighting on the front line against captives, so how could he be from the Shanxi merchant family!
If he remembered that Sun Chengzong would rather die than surrender to Jianlu, and finally sacrificed these details heroically, he probably wouldn't be as surprised as he was just now.

After hesitating for a moment, Han Sheng said again: "Actually, Ma Shilong is capable, but his strength is actually reflected in his many elite servants. The money to maintain his servants is provided by Shanxi merchants."

Hu Guang nodded after hearing this. The family system in the late Ming Dynasty was really weird. If you want to rejuvenate the Ming Dynasty, this military system must be changed.

It seems that it was worth coming here today, this Han Sheng is very good.Thinking of this, Hu Guang said to him kindly: "What you said is very valuable, and you did a good job. I am very satisfied. Don't miss out what you know, even the details. Tell Cao Daban about it."

"Caomin obey!" Han Sheng quickly agreed.At this point, he has no way out.

Hu Guang turned his head to look at Cao Huachun, and said to him: "Big Companion, you have to protect him, and don't let the outside world know that he is in Dongchang for the time being. This matter is very important, understand?"

"Your maidservant knows, and your maidservant will not let others know." Cao Huachun obviously knew the seriousness, and immediately responded.

Hu Guang was still a little worried. After thinking for a while, he called half of the guards present, including Chen Er, to Cao Huachun, and asked them to personally guard Han Shengcai.

After arranging these things, Hu Guang stood up and prepared to leave.But he quickly remembered something, turned around again, looked at Han Sheng who had been lifted up and said, "The name of ticket number is too narrow, I don't want to use it."

As soon as he heard something he was familiar with, Han Sheng immediately focused on listening to the emperor.

"I've thought about it. In the future, the one controlled by the imperial court will be called the Daming Central Bank. The bank of silver, the bank of 365 banks. The business involved is not limited to the ticket number. Well, it will also distinguish commercial banks. The content There are quite a few, I will talk to you again after you recover from your injuries."

Hu Guang has thought about it. For now, professional talents are indispensable if we want to quickly set up the bank.At present, people in Daming, if they are familiar with the banking business, others are really not good at it. Only by training bank employees who have the embryonic form of a bank can they get twice the result with half the effort.

Indeed, as Hu Guang said before, Han Shengcai is very interested in finance, so hearing what Hu Guang said, he couldn't help but feel very itchy.From the name of the emperor, he can feel that the emperor attaches great importance to this content, and it seems that the emperor is also proficient in this aspect.At this moment, he really wanted to know what the emperor would do with this bank?
However, the emperor is the emperor after all, a prisoner who has just been turned into a tainted witness, how can he have the right to let the emperor tell him all his thoughts.The only way is to take good care of your body as soon as possible and cooperate with the emperor to get rid of... get rid of the Shanxi merchants.

Thinking of this, Han Sheng couldn't help but think of Han Fan, what should we do?
Not to mention how entangled he was, but to talk about how after Hu Guang returned to the palace, he stayed alone in the imperial study to digest the news he heard.

To be honest, Hu Guang has already considered that Shanxi merchants have a community of interests.If you want to move Shanxi merchants, you have to do it all together.But what he didn't expect was that Shanxi merchants were so powerful.It seems that in order to get rid of Shanxi merchants, we must make a decision before moving.The current favorable situation is that those people don't know that they are going to take them away, and they are in a state of being the enemy.

When the real attack is made, there must be an army in hand that can deter the local area.The prerequisite for this army is to be loyal.But now, it seems that there is no.

Hu Guang took a deep breath and calmed down his impatience.This has to be done slowly, not hastily!
Just as he was thinking, he suddenly heard a report from the servant, saying that the eunuch Wang Dehua, the eunuch in charge of the supervisor of ceremonies, asked for an audience.

After hearing this, Hu Guang knew that he had come to see him for something, so he sent an order to summon him.

After a while, Wang Dehua came in with a bunch of memorials in person, and reported to Hu Guang: "Your Majesty, the Secretary of General Administration sent a lot of memorials early this morning, basically from officials at all levels in Beijing, and all the memorials are the same."
