I became the son of Renzong

"How is it, buddy?"
Zhao Zhen didn't even know how many times this was the first time he had asked old Chen Lin.No way, he couldn't go out to see it, it all depended on the news from the Imperial City Secretary, before Chen Shi, he had already started asking questions.
Empress Cao and the women in the East Palace were also worried...not only about Zhao Xi, but also about the piles of old coins that they exchanged in their hands.
Whether to earn or accompany, depends on today.
Not only Neiyuan, but also her natal family, and everyone close to her.Said to support His Highness the Crown Prince, it was more like coming together to make some money.
It's easy to say that if you earn money, once the new coins are insufficient and the old coins fall into your hands, not only Zhao Xi's reputation will fall, but even some friendships will be affected.
All anxious.
"Back to the official's house, the exchange has already started, there is no accident...just...just go to the exchange point to exchange new currency, most of them are coolies..."
The information was like this, and Chen Lin didn't dare to hide it.
What do you mean?Could it be that those wealthy families, those merchants, those landlords and old fortunes, no longer have old coins?
How is this possible?Even after comparing it with my own home, I knew it was impossible.
"They are waiting until these people have exchanged the new currency. When the court's new currency is insufficient, they will go to exchange it, so as to prove the fact that the new currency is insufficient, and continue to increase the exchange ratio of old and new currency."
That's it, Zhao Xi had talked to Tao Niang about this practice.
so what?Ciming Palace can only wait and wait.
Zhao Xi didn't think too much about it, Su Song withdrew without staying for a while, and went to Qianjian, even if it was a new one, he could make as much as he could.
This was discussed by the guard battalion. It is still necessary to prepare more new coins. It is safe to be prepared.So, simply let Su Song go to Qianliang to watch.
I have also eaten the snack at noon... Few people are interested in eating it, but Zhao Xi had the opportunity to taste the dim sum outside the palace... He didn't eat a whole one, it was after Wang Zhongzheng and Li Xian broke up. the remainder.
No way, at this point, I can't make sense to anyone.Anyway, I ate some food outside the palace... that's it.
"Your Highness, they are here..."
When Lu Gongzhu said this, he seemed a little angry.
It was already half an hour later, and the exchange point was no longer crowded, and the imperial guards were not even required to maintain order.
After all, the day was almost over, and no one said that they could not exchange for new coins. No matter how much, the court did not bargain, and all exchange points were like this.
Since the imperial court really has no shortage of new coins, there is no need to spend them waiting here.Who doesn't have any trivial matters... Those who should go back will go back. Anyway, there is plenty of time, and the court has no restrictions.
The key is that there is not much money.
There were fewer people, and I thought today would pass by like this.Unexpectedly, as the prince said, this group of merchants...
Zhao Xi was waiting for this.
Leaning on the window and looking out, at the same time, the windows of these restaurants around the government office are all open... Don't worry about the cold wind blowing.
Zhao Xi seemed to be able to wait for bursts of chuckles and mutual congratulations.
Locked in early victory?
It is indeed worth celebrating, seeing the ox carts supporting each other, and listening to the sound of the wheels touching the floor tiles, as the wheels bump, you can also hear the sound of rattling...they are all loaded with copper coins .
Is this your last backhand?At this time, the bullock cart was just like that, without a high backboard.Don't look at the bullock carts one by one, you can't see the tail, because they can't hold much money.
"Officials, Kaifeng government office, there is a team of ox carts on Fuqian Street. The investigative department's newspaper should be all copper coins..."
I didn't expect it to come, and it really came out like this.Chen Lin felt that it was tricky, and he wanted to make Bingjingwu and the investigation department disguise themselves and rob the money!
Even if he is executed in the end, he can bear the burden for His Highness.
But he was also worried that his own assertion would mess up His Highness's plan.
"Ah... do you know how many there are?"
Zhao Zhen really couldn't sit still at this moment.Suddenly stood up, as if about to go out...
"Officials, Xi'er has her own mind."
Even though Empress Cao persuaded her own man in this way, even herself, she was also worried at this time.
Alas, I knew I shouldn't be greedy for such a small profit. If five or six families make a loss and reserve some new coins, they can also help Xi'er at this time.
Now, he can only rely on himself, no one can help.
Xi'er has her own calculations... Zhao Zhen is also convinced of this, at least Xi'er has always proved this point in the past.
But this time... this is almost all merchants in Bianliang!
At the same time, the ministers of the Zhengshitang also got the news...
When they heard that the ox carts could hardly see the end, the husbands couldn't sit still.
This is an imperial edict, not the personal action of His Highness the Crown Prince.
For this decree, the ministers went to the Xinqian Supervisor and saw the craftsmanship of making coins. They thought there would be no troubles, but if the merchants from Bianliang formed a gang...it would be a bit troublesome.
Chapter 220 This is the trouble
A copper coin weighs five baht, even if you cut corners, it won't be much less.
According to the calculation of later generations, copper coins always weigh about ten catties.Wanguan, that is one hundred thousand catties, fifty tons!
This ox cart is not made of steel, it is made of wood.
Zhao Xi took a look at the mighty bullock cart...it was just a good looking car, and it really didn't have much money.
Just go to the nearly a hundred exchange points in Kaifeng Mansion to prepare new coins, which is almost equivalent to the transshipment of a large-scale war.
The imperial court specially arranged for the forbidden army of the two armies, and it took three days to complete it.Zhao Xi really didn't believe how much copper coins these merchants could bring.
The first bullock cart has arrived at the exchange point, but standing at the window of the restaurant, I still can't see the tail of the bullock cart.
This is a bit interesting.Zhao Xi really didn't want the opponent to be too weak, that would be very unfulfilling.
The merchants were still very angry. It was past noon and they felt that they had too much money.
Tomorrow?So willing to give the imperial court a chance to wait for tomorrow?
Therefore, it is very generous to use a scale to weigh money, and the amount is just like that, and it doesn't matter.
And people made this decision after weighing the new coins. The new coins are lighter than the old coins. They understand that there is less lead and more copper.
