"Let him in."

Although Li Chengyong is not very old at the moment, he has already been cultivated by Emperor Qian and Li Su in front of outsiders to look like a superior, and his words and deeds also look like little adults.

"Xiao Wenmao, the censor of Zuodu of Chendu Chayuan, has a meeting with His Royal Highness Taisun."

Xiao Wenmao walked into the hall and bowed to Li Chengyong.

"Master Xiao is an elder, please get up quickly."

Li Chengyong said hurriedly like a good little boy who respects the old and loves the young.

"Your Highness, I have come here to tell you something, please screen the others away."

Xiao Wenmao looked mysterious.

"Go down."

Li Chengyong waved his hands.

"His Royal Highness, I don't know if I should say something or not. If I say it, I may have suspicions of alienating the Tian family. I don't say it, but I am afraid that someone will harm His Highness."

Xiao Wenmao hesitated.

"My lord, it doesn't matter."

Li Chengyong was talking, but he was speechless for a while.

"It made me turn away from the left and right, and say such things, hypocrisy!"

"Your Highness, do you know the grievances between the Prince Regent and your father, His Highness the First Prince?"

Xiao Wenmao whispered.

"Well, I heard a little."

Li Chengyong couldn't help but feel tense when he heard Xiao Wenmao mention the abandoned prince, his nominal father.

"This old Bidden wants to do something!"

"Your Highness, the reason why the eldest prince was deprived of the crown prince's position is because of the shadow of the regent.

Now he has become the regent, and with his backing on the rich and luxurious land of Lingnan Mansion, his prestige among the people is at its peak.

In this court, he is the one who has the final say.

To say something disrespectful, His Highness is like a marionette, so we have to guard against it. "

Xiao Wenmao analyzed.

"The emperor's uncle is my uncle, so don't be suspicious."

Li Chengyong said casually, but he had already remembered this person in his heart.

How brave you are to provoke your father-son relationship.

Don't blame Xiao Wenmaoyong, in fact, he didn't know that the father-son relationship between Li Chengyong and Li Yan was zero.

Otherwise, according to common sense, there is no son who does not stand with his father.

"Your Highness, the Prince Regent set up a bank and let Liu Lin be the president, which means he took all the money in his own hands.

Who is Liu Lin?Wang An's lackeys, this bank is not up to him, Wang An. "

Xiao Wenmao didn't give up, and continued to fight the fire.

"I'm young and alone, I don't know how Mr. Xiao can solve this matter?"

Li Chengyong pretended to be nervous, and humbly asked for advice.

"Hmph, if you dare to say that Uncle Liu is a lackey, I will bring it to you."

Li Chengyong thought to himself.

"I have a plan, as long as this is so, so, so, and so on, as long as I bring down the bank at that time, King An will definitely lose the hearts of the people.

Then His Highness will come forward again, and the family will definitely cooperate with His Highness to turn the tide.

His Highness will definitely be able to conquer the hearts of the people and reverse the disadvantages. "

Xiao Wenmao said in a tone of planning for Li Chengyong.

"Zuo Zuo is just a child of six or seven years old, so you don't need to waste your time thinking about it."

Xiao Wenmao thought in his heart.

"Since Mr. Xiao has a plan, let him do whatever he wants. I will listen to Mr. Boss."

Li Chengyong immediately showed a grateful look on his face, as if entrusting the future to Xiao Wenmao.

When Xiao Wenmao left, he was beaming, and he wanted to report this matter back to the Xiao family.

Previously, Li Yan had the support of the Xiao family and other aristocratic families, and now Li Chengyong, the grandson of the emperor, seemed logical to them.

In his opinion, as long as he wins over this little kid like Li Chengyong, their aristocratic families will be able to make further progress in the future.

After Xiao Wenmao left, Li Chengyong quickly called Wang Xi.

"Quick, Xiao Xizi, I want to see the regent!"

Li Chengyong said quickly.

He drew a plan out of Xiao Wenmao's mouth, and wanted to tell Li Su the family's conspiracy as soon as possible.

"Father, that old dog Xiao Wenmao said he was going to deal with banknotes."

Li Chengyong said to Li Su with a look of resentment.

Xiao Wenmao never expected that he would be betrayed by Li Chengyong as soon as he turned around.

"We in Lingnan have a lot of money. If they really dare to use banknotes without knowing their lives, then there is no need for their banks to exist in the future."

Li Su didn't care.

Although he said he didn't care, he didn't take it lightly.

After returning, she asked Nightingale to keep a close eye on the movements of the families behind several banks.

At the same time, a secret letter was urgently sent to Prince An's Mansion in Lingnan.

……

Chapter 199 Lead the snake out of the hole

Chengyun Hall, early dynasty.

Since Li Su and Li Chengyong's father and son changed the time of the morning court to Chenshi, the matter of going to the morning court is not so uncomfortable.

"Regent, the Royal Bank has gradually spread to 38 prefectures in Dagan.

Since the Royal Bank opened, it has absorbed a total of more than 670 million taels of silver deposits.

Among them, the exchange of banknotes alone reached 300 million taels. "

Zheng Kun, Minister of the Household Department, said with a happy face.

As soon as the words fell, there was a sound of breathing in the hall.

"This bank is the real cornucopia! In just a few months, it has more silver than the national treasury!"

"If this is completely spread out, wouldn't it be possible to reach hundreds of millions of taels!"

"It's unbelievable that the common people are so rich when I work so hard!"

"Hehe, as far as I know, most of the aristocratic families and nobles save more. I heard that Mr. Li seems to have saved a lot, right?"

"Master Hu, don't talk nonsense. I have always been a clean and honest official, and my family has nothing but floating wealth."

……

There were constant discussions, and Li Su nodded in approval.

In fact, the influence of the imperial court on the various prefectures of Daqian varies greatly, and the bank is a new thing. It does not have as many first-hand information as the capital to guide it. In other prefectures and cities, especially places far away from the capital, the progress is slower.

People in remote places still approach the bank with a skeptical attitude, so Li Su is also very satisfied with this achievement.

When the bank is really deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, there will definitely be an outbreak period, and that is when the bank really starts to exert its strength.

"Following the procedures, the lower official has already applied for approval from the bank, and applied for a loan from the bank to expand and strengthen the frontier army, rebuild official roads, and lay the railway from the capital to Lingnan and Guangfu.

Orphans and widows in various state capitals have also allocated a sum of money to improve their homes and livelihoods.

The total budget is 600 million taels of silver, and all the funds have been allocated according to the budget. "

Zheng Kun continued to report.

"Wow!"

"So much money was spent all at once!"

"Master Zheng, you are a bit too wasteful!"

Zhang Lian, Minister of the Ministry of Rites, sighed a little, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

"Old dog Zhang! Fuck your mother, are you saying that this money should not be spent by the Ministry of War, or by the Ministry of Industry!",

Zhao Jinming, Shangshu of the Ministry of War, jumped out and rolled up his sleeves.

Next to him, Liu Bazhai, Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry, looked like he was enjoying the show.

He has always talked nonsense with his mouth, which has annoyed Emperor Qian many times. Unexpectedly, Zhang Lian didn't keep his mouth shut this time.

"My lord Zhang, these expenses seem to be a lot, but they are actually all because I didn't have the money to do a lot of work before, so I delayed what I should have done before until now.

Money is wasted when it is kept in the treasury, and it is not wasted when it is put to practical use. "

Zheng Kun explained.

"Ah, yes, yes, yes, that's what the old man meant."

Seeing Zhao Jinming's casserole-sized fist, Zhang Lian quickly confessed.

Sitting on the high platform, Li Su watched the bustle of the people below, which was very interesting.

The corner of the mouth was raised, and Xiao Wenmao, who glanced at the corner of his eyes, showed a meaningful smile.

Originally, the bank's whereabouts of funds and deposit data did not need to be disclosed in court, which can actually be said to be a secret to a certain extent.

But Li Su found Zheng Kun yesterday and asked him to tell the details of the bank's situation this morning.

The purpose is to lure the snake out of the hole.

The timing they want has been thrown out, and the next thing is to see how the family will perform.

Xiao's old house.

"Uncle, that's the way it is, my nephew thinks that the bank is growing at a rapid pace.

If we don't make a move now, I'm afraid it won't take long in the future, and it will really become a trend. At that time, even if we use the power of the three families, we may not be able to move its fur. "

Xiao Wenmao said respectfully to Xiao Mutang.

"Well, your analysis makes sense, the bank's ability to attract money is really terrifying.

If he is allowed to grow further, I am afraid that there is really nothing he can do about it.

Contact a few more and give them some benefits. I'm afraid it will be difficult for my three families to get so much. "

Xiao Mutang made up his mind.

He was full of confidence in bringing down the bank before, but now that he heard what Xiao Wenmao said about Zheng Kun this morning, he couldn't help but feel uneasy at the moment.

Regent House.

Li Su was lying comfortably on the rocking chair in the study, while Zi Yuan was massaging his shoulders.

"Your Highness, Nightingale discovered that someone in the capital has been exchanging a large amount of banknotes recently, and the banknotes in the bank have almost been exchanged.

There are still some scattered forces among the people who are raising the price by [-]% to [-]% to buy banknotes in the hands of ordinary people. "

Zi Yuan spoke softly.

"Well, let them accept it, they raise the price, let Nightingale withdraw the banknotes and sell them, and sell them as much as they charge.

If it doesn't work, just add a few more printing presses. "

Li Su said indifferently, with a sarcastic smile on the corner of his mouth.
