Li Su and Li Chengyong hid in the Hall of Yanhe and waited for the censor's vomit star and criticism memorial.

This outrageous decree should be criticized by those courtiers, right?

However, unexpectedly, the ministers showed great support for this will.

"Your Highness is merciful, the old minister is old, and often falls asleep after a few hours.

Then I had to get up early to go to court, and I was drowsy when I was dealing with government affairs during the day. Your Highness changed the morning time to Chen Shi, which really saved the old minister's life! "

"It is indeed the blessing of my officials and the people of Daqian to descend to the emperor's grandson to supervise the country."

……

Li Su and his son lay on the carpet in the main hall and stared wide-eyed, reacting to the reaction of the courtiers.

"Co-authors, you guys have long had enough of the morning court held before dawn!"

When the two of them went to court again the next day, they saw that the faces of the ministers below were radiant, and their spirits were obviously much better.

As for government affairs, in fact, the ministers in the court are very handy, just follow the steps.

Li Su knew that although today's big cadres have changed under the leadership of Lingnan, the officialdom as a whole is still the same as before.

The implementation of a series of decrees and the way things are handled are unlikely to be suddenly reformed just because he became the regent.

Humans are not machines, they have selfishness and cliques.

It does not mean that one order can be meticulously implemented.

Besides, although there are indeed some problems in the officialdom of Dagan today, it is not unusable in general.

When he was in Lingnan, he only focused on the general direction, and handed over the government affairs to Cao Youde.

To say that what he is best at, or what he relies on for time travel, is the knowledge beyond this era.

In fact, it is not necessarily better than these ancients in handling government affairs.

So Li Su didn't even think about coming up and slashing at the officialdom, which is not conducive to unity.

The father and son sat on the high platform, with an empty dragon chair in the middle, where Emperor Qian was seated.

The two of them were drowsy, listening to the courtier's report, echoing and nodding from time to time, it was considered a pass.

These political matters that were mentioned earlier have actually been discussed by several important ministers, and basically the best solutions were given.

Li Su was also happy to be the nodding regent.

"Prince Regent, now that I have a large treasury, can I build a new railway to connect the capital to the southeast, Liaodong, and northwest?"

Zheng Kun, Minister of the Household Department, came out and bowed.

As the Minister of the Household Department, he has long been greedy for the profits of the Jingling Railway.

Now if a few railways can be built mainly by the imperial court, will Daqian's treasury still be short of money?

Li Su's eyes lit up when he heard about the infrastructure construction.

He is not good at government affairs, but he is good at infrastructure construction.

"How much money can the imperial court give now?"

Li Su asked.

"The national treasury removes all kinds of budgets, and about 3000 million taels of silver can be drawn out."

Zheng Kun said proudly.

"Good boy Zheng, I asked you a few days ago if you have any surplus in the national treasury to redress the frontier army. You told me that you have no money, but now you can spend 3000 million taels to repair the railway!"

Hearing Zheng Kun's words, Zhao Jinming, Minister of the Ministry of War, suddenly jumped out and pointed at Zheng Kun angrily.

"Prince Regent, I believe that this money should be given priority to the frontier army to improve their strength.

Expand the cavalry for the frontier army and equip it with artillery and muskets.

Then imitate Lingnan's training method, and then train a few strong and strong troops.

At that time, Tatar and Tubo will be wiped out in one fell swoop, and there will be no future troubles!

As long as 2000 million taels, it should be enough, and it can save 1000 million taels for emergency. "

Zhao Jinming bowed his hands to Li Sugong.

"Absurd, don't think about developing people's livelihood, filling the national treasury, only thinking about fighting, the words of a warrior!"

Zheng Kun also said angrily.

"External restlessness, no matter how well you develop, you are still waiting for others to grab you! Short-sighted!"

Zhao Jinming refused to budge.

The two started arguing directly above the main hall.

Originally, he wanted to have an in-depth chat with Zheng Kun about the railway construction, but Zhao Jinming suddenly got in the way.

Seeing the two of them spitting and flying around, Li Su felt dizzy.

"Stop arguing, both of you, since you don't have enough money, why not—"

Li Su stopped it quickly, and the quarrel was getting worse.

"Maybe——the regent lends the court a sum of money for emergency?"

The two who were arguing suddenly turned their heads to Li Su and said in unison.

"What?"

At this moment, Li Su looked at the two people who were moving in unison, but didn't react for a while.

I originally wanted to say that I might as well sit down and discuss it with you first.

Why do you have to ask yourself to borrow money out of nowhere?

"Conspiracy, these two people definitely agreed to sing the oboe!"

Li Su reacted, his heart tightened.

……

Chapter 194

Seeing the two looking at him with fiery eyes, Li Su knew that he was being missed.

"Since His Highness has gained His Majesty's trust and became the Regent, you can't just do nothing, right? Old Zheng?"

"Your Highness, you haven't done anything these days, have you? Old Zhao?"

"Your Majesty trusts the Regent so much and entrusts His Majesty with state affairs, so His Majesty doesn't want to disappoint His Majesty, does he?"

"The common people call His Highness the Living God of Wealth and Goldfinger. Presumably they don't care about such a small amount of money, do they?"

Zhao Jinming and Zheng Kun sang together, watching Li Su's mouth twitch continuously.

"Okay, my lords, borrowing money from Lingnan is just a trivial matter, there is no need to make so many dramas."

Li Su hurriedly stopped him, he really couldn't bear to see the two important officials of the court trying to run on him shamelessly for some money.

"Your Highness, are you serious?"

"a man of his words!"

"Otherwise, to be on the safe side, we should make a written statement?"

Seeing that Li Su let go, the two hurriedly confirmed again and again.

To say that the imperial court has indeed doubled the national treasury several times in recent years, and the tax revenue that Zheng Kun showed off at the Great Court Meeting is also real and real data.

But that was mainly for the vassal states to see at the Great Court Conference.

The real situation is that when the court finds out that it has money, there are too many things it wants to do, and the money will never be enough.

Now that the treasury is rich, officials should be treated better, right?

The soldiers of the frontier army can't be chilled, can they?

Canal dams, roads and bridges in various places must also be done, right?

When a poor person has no money, he fantasizes that if he has 100 million, he will be free of wealth.

But when he really had 100 million, he found that he was still a poor man.

The same is true for countries.

That's why Zheng Kun teamed up with Zhao Jinming to play such a play.

Ask Dagan who is the richest?If you don't ask Li Su to borrow it, who can you borrow it from?

"You two, the so-called teaching a man to fish is worse than giving him a fish. I can borrow money, but if I borrow this time, what about the next time?

In the final analysis, it is still not a solid foundation.

This king has a way to make Dagan never suffer from lack of money. "

Li Su pondered for a moment and spoke.

To be honest, let alone 2000 million taels, even if it was [-] million taels, Li Su could take it out without frowning.

The wealth I have acquired from overseas over the years can be said to be countless.

He doesn't even know how much money he has.

Anyway, if you are short of money, you can go to Japan to open a silver mine at any time.

He is a real man with mines in his family.

But it is impossible for Dagan to rely on him alone forever.

Finding a way out for Dagan is the foundation of all generations, and this is also the purpose of Emperor Qian making him the regent.

"Oh? What is the regent's plan, please tell me!"

When Zheng Kun heard Li Su's words, he immediately lifted his spirits.

Not to mention him, all the courtiers in the hall pricked up their ears, and their eyes were fixed on Li Su's mouth.

Who doesn't know the name of Li Su's God of Wealth, and if he can tell the way to never be short of money, he will never let everyone down.

"Open a bank, take deposits, and issue banknotes!"

Li Su said nine words slowly.

"The regent is talking about banks and banknotes?"

Hearing what Li Su said, Zheng Kun was the first to react with a look of disappointment.

Qianzhuang has always existed in Dagan, and has its own bank notes.

Merchants for long-distance bulk transactions generally deposit silver taels in one place, pay depository fees, and then exchange for silver notes.

In another place, after the transaction is completed, when the other party needs money, they will take the bank notes and go to the local bank notes to exchange for silver taels.

At present, Dagan shares three banks covering important cities in Dagan, namely Huitong Bank, Litong Bank and Hengtong Bank.

The banknotes of the three major banks recognize each other, and there are aristocratic families behind them.

"You can understand it as a money bank and bank notes, but it's not exactly."

Li Su explained.

"This king wants to open a bank in the name of the royal family and issue fixed-denomination banknotes to replace physical money.

People deposit their own silver and copper coins in the bank in exchange for banknotes of the same denomination.

The bank takes the money to mint new coins for exchange by the people at any time.

Once the trust in this exchange relationship is established, the bank will have a steady stream of silver reserves in its hands.

We can use these reserves of silver to invest where needed.

And one advantage of paper money is that it can be issued in excess within a certain percentage, as long as it is controlled within the risk zone, it is equivalent to the bank can issue an extra sum of money. "

"Your Majesty's meaning, I generally understand, but these people are used to the bank notes of the three major banks, so how can they easily deposit money in our bank with confidence?"

Zheng Kun asked the key.

"Interest! Banks charge storage fees, and ordinary people don't use banks.
