Cao Bianjiao didn't expect that there was such a way to make money with Ming Dynasty banknotes. He turned around and looked at the long queue. It would indeed take a long time to queue up.

"You are robbing money. You did nothing and earned two copper coins for nothing!" Brother Zhao accused with some dissatisfaction.

At this time, Cao Bianjiao turned around, took out the broken piece of silver and said: "Here are one or two or six dollars, all converted into banknotes, the ones with low face value, are there any discounts?"

The man was overjoyed when he saw it, and quickly nodded in agreement: "Yes, yes, of course."

After finishing speaking, he warmly invited Cao Bianjiao and the others to come over to the side, then verified the fineness and weight of the silver coins, and finally exchanged them for one, two or four coins of Ming Dynasty banknotes.

"Brother Cao Xian, they made two money at once. They are really cheap!" Brother Zhao said still a little unwillingly.

When Cao Bianjiao was about to say something, he suddenly saw a commotion in the long queue at the Central Bank of the Ming Dynasty. It seemed to be serious. The soldiers from the Five Cities Military and Horse Division rushed over to maintain order.

When Cao Bianjiao saw it, he immediately walked over quickly with the other three people. If the unruly people dared to cause trouble, he would not mind going up to help arrest them.

It was only when he was closer that he heard the quarrel over there.

"The queue has been taking so long, how come it's gone just as soon as it's gone? The queue was in vain!"

"It's gone, it's gone. Now only silver taels can be exchanged. All the banknotes exchanged for copper coins have been exchanged."

"What do the people in your bank do for a living? Why don't you print quickly! What, we don't have any ink raw materials? Can we just use other printing materials?"

"The Emperor has decreed that the Central Bank of the Ming Dynasty must ensure the quality of banknotes. The missing raw materials must be prepared before printing can continue!"

"Ah, that's right. The emperor's requirements are so strict!"

"..."

There were no copper coins or banknotes to exchange, so a large group of people dispersed. As the people dispersed, the news spread.

Among the people who were still left, many of them hesitated for a long time and then changed the money they carried.

"This banknote is really easy to use. Your Majesty would rather not be able to print it for the time being than print it indiscriminately and indiscriminately. There is no need to say that!"

"Yes, maybe the silver notes will be exchanged later!"

"..."

When Cao Bianjiao heard this, he immediately took several other people to queue up and exchanged all the broken silver he carried with him for banknotes. While in the queue, they heard that the person just now was doing an exchange transaction with another person, and it seemed that the price had increased a lot.

Emperor Chongzhen does not know these details yet. But even if he understood it, it wouldn't be surprising. After all, as long as someone discovers a place where money can be made, someone will naturally do it. This is true at all times and in all countries.

At this time, he was receiving a report from Wei Mulan about the results of the battle.

In this battle, Korean volunteers and civilians killed about a thousand people and injured 700 to 800 people. The Dongjiang Ming Army killed 76 people and injured 416 people. Most of the casualties of the Ming army were caused by the encirclement and suppression of Jianlu in the woods.

On the Jianlu side, more than 900 people were wiped out, and of the food protection team of about 1,000 people, only the cavalry escaped. Another batch of food was grabbed, but only about half was delivered to the Dongjiang Ming Army. The reason why the results of the battle cannot be accurate is because the war ended in a hurry and the troops retreated into the mountains and forests.

Now that Jianlu is constantly increasing its troops, Lu Xiangsheng is evacuating, preparing to return to Pidao to rest and recuperate. The situation on North Korea's side still needs to be determined by Jianlu's movements.

Emperor Chongzhen was very satisfied and told Wei Mulan that in order to boost morale in the previous battle, Lu Xiangsheng flew the governor's flag and went to the battlefield in person. Jianlu would definitely know about it and take it seriously, so Lu Xiangsheng must be cautious.

Wei Mulan immediately agreed and replied: "Your Majesty, Lu Zhongcheng asked the slaves to tell me that this guerrilla tactic is very useful. When used well, the weak can defeat the strong and accumulate small victories into big victories. It is actually the best military strategy in Dongjiang! Lu Zhongcheng He said that he admires His Majesty very much!"

"Haha, I still need him to execute it well! After I reform the government and straighten out everything, then use absolute strength to crush them. That is the kingly way!" Emperor Chongzhen was in a good mood. After finishing speaking, he thought After a while, he informed Sun Chengzong of Lu Xiangsheng's information and asked him to take care of it. After that, he went to the inner study hall again to worry about the affairs of the new army.

At Shanhaiguan, Sun Chengzong couldn't help being surprised when he heard Liu Wang's report. Unexpectedly, Dongjiang's small force could annihilate two thousand Jianlu after Lu Xiangsheng left. This has never happened before!

After careful consideration, Sun Chengzong immediately sent an order to Cao Wenzhao, asking him to lead troops to Ningyuan, echoing Wu Sangui of Jinzhou. This time Mang Gurtai led troops, and he could not weaken his momentum and make no achievements. At least it would cost Jianlu money and food.

In North Korea, Daishan and Amin met in Yizhou. However, there was no joy in meeting the two sides. Both of them had gloomy faces and sat side by side, looking coldly at their brother, Aisin Gioro Babuhai, standing in front of them.

"You really can't blame me. The Ming army is so insidious that even Governor Denglai went into battle in person!" Babuhai said with an aggrieved look, "You haven't seen that Governor Denglai is taller and has longer arms than we have in the Great Jin Kingdom. The men are taller and have great strength. I have seen them all. One of my white-armored soldiers was cut in half by him with one knife! And the Ming army has more than 5,000 people. With such a governor leading him, I only have a few men and horses, and I have to protect the food, how can I fight?"

At this point, he paused, glanced at Amin, and then continued: "This thing is not reliable. In order to lure these Ming troops, the contact time was too long, and the reinforcements came too late, otherwise they would definitely be defeated." These Ming troops..."

This time, before he finished speaking, Amin suddenly slapped the armrest of the chair and shouted angrily: "So, you blame me?"

Babuhai insisted that those who besieged him were all Ming troops, and exaggerated his words, naturally to shirk responsibility. If he doesn't take the blame, only Amin will. So when Amin said it, he didn't answer, but the expression on his face meant this.

When Amin saw this, he was about to get angry when he was stopped by Daishan. He glanced at his son Yue Tuo standing beside him, and then acted as a peacemaker and said: "The Ming Dynasty actually sent this Lu Xiangsheng to be the governor of Denglai. I really didn't expect this. When we were in the capital, I also verified that Lu Xiangsheng is really powerful. I didn’t expect that Dongjiang, which I originally thought was abandoned, would now become the biggest threat to Daikin!”

Having said this, he stood up and said: "Let's jointly report to the Great Khan first, and then we can all see what to do together. As for the responsibility for losing troops and generals, we will discuss it when we return to Shenyang!"

That being said, the responsibility of the person involved, Babuhai, will definitely not escape. Yue Tuo said at that time that as long as Babuhai persisted for a while, he would be able to catch up with the war. But now he doesn't say anything. This matter of Lu Xiangsheng is important. Let's wait for Huang Taiji's opinion first.

All debts are due.
