Biography of Emperor Mo

The next day.

morning.

Lu Yingmo woke up very early, and Xiao Er's words never stopped ringing in his ears last night.In the past, the life of the people affected by the war was already very difficult, but now with such high prices, the people who are struggling to survive are even worse.Whether it is for the current situation of the people, or for the increase of his own capital in the future, the first task now is to cure the economic situation here, which is crucial.

This is where Lu Yingmo is more in line with the standard of being an emperor than Lu Yingzhen.Lu Yingzhen can sacrifice and harm the people for personal gain, but Lu Yingmo thinks of the people and wants to do something for the people.

As soon as he saw the prosperity and peace of the world, and the caravans and crowds flocking, he felt an indescribable sense of satisfaction in his heart.

"Third Young Master, did you sleep well last night?" The door next door opened, never thinking that Lu Yingmo was standing outside the door thinking about something, Xue Xing walked out of the room and greeted respectfully.

"It's okay, it's just that it's still far worse than at home." Lu Yingmo leaned against the wall and responded casually.

At some point, Feng Xiao also came in front of the two of them, "I heard that today is the once-a-month market day in Qingzhou."

Lu Yingmo nodded, "Go shopping."

The three came to the market on the street.The market is a necessary existence for ordinary people to solve their lives.This place is the key to the extent of the situation.First look at the bustling crowd, then look at the buying and selling of these people, the most important thing is to see the moment when people pay for the transaction.

"It seems that the place we lived in yesterday is really not expensive."

Lu Yingmo, who had finished talking to himself, had no time to take his time to take his time. He was so anxious that he shoveled directly at the official residence of the governor of Qingzhou.

The governor had already received the news one day after Lu Yingmo's departure.The imperial court attached great importance to the currency issue, and had appointed officials to deal with it earlier, but all ended in failure.The person sent here this time is the third prince who has come back. The third prince is a prodigy in the business world and is well known in the world.The governor believed that he was the last hope, that he would be able to solve this urgent problem and prevent future troubles forever.

Unlike some people who look down on people with dog eyes, Lu Yingmo has strong affinity and strong ability to do things, and his reputation among civil servants has always been first-class.Therefore, after receiving the news, the governor was naturally extremely excited.The people of this state are his heaven, he takes the salary of the imperial court, but the stable life of the people is his lifelong pursuit.The moment he was named on the gold list, he vowed in his heart to let his people have the best life.

At this moment, a small official in a hurry outside rushed into the inner hall where Ban Simiao was. "Report to my lord, there are people outside asking to see, saying that they are nobles sent by the imperial court." The little official seemed incoherent due to nervousness.

"Since there are people here, why don't you bring them in quickly? Remember, you must take good care of them!" Ban Simiao asked. "It must be the third master!"

"Yes, yes, yes!" The little official hurriedly led the order down.

After a while, Lu Yingmo walked in from the outer hall with two bodyguards.I am walking in the middle, and the left and right door gods are walking on both sides, full of murderous looks.

"The next official, Ban Simiao, welcomes the third master!" Ban Simiao saluted.

Then, the officials on both sides said in unison: "Welcome to the imperial envoy!"

"Master Ban is polite." Lu Ying Moyan laughed at Yan Yan, and walked up to help him up in a friendly manner.

This is Lu Yingmo's usual way of receiving officials.In the officialdom, most people are very accepting of this, and because of this, most people like Lu Yingmo very much.

Not surprisingly, after this action, Ban Simiao developed a [-]% liking for Lu Yingmo in his heart.

"Third Master, please sit up!"

Ban Simiao spread out his palms and invited Lu Yingmo sideways to enter the inner hall, to be his guest and guest.

After the two sat down, Lu Yingmo didn't exchange pleasantries, but directly asked about the current situation in Qingzhou, and checked what he saw with his own eyes.

However, what surprised Lu Yingmo was that the young official in front of him unceremoniously began to introduce the situation in Qingzhou.Especially Linzi, where I am now, because this is the city with the worst currency problem.

Lu Yingmo didn't see a twinkle in his eyes, a trace of panic. He only heard that he introduced the situation of Qingzhou this year in great detail, and he even explained what he thought didn't need to be detailed. Come on.It really is "three fires for a new official to take office", this sentence is indeed true.

If everyone is the leader of a state, why worry about the instability of the country?Why worry that the people don't love it?The most rare thing is that he explained in detail whether it is the situation of ordinary people, small businessmen, business travelers who have done business in the past, or various problems that local administrative agencies are facing due to currency issues.

After talking about everything, he even asked the little official to submit the records he usually made.

In this way, Lu Yingmo finally found out the whole story that led to this incident.

At that time, Tiance Army issued such currency in order to raise enough military pay, which also made the following things even more out of hand.For the moment, only by recovering all bad coins and reissuing good coins can normal prices and lost popular support be restored.

"For the current plan, the only best strategy is to withdraw the bad coins and issue good coins." Lu Yingmo pondered.

However, the proportion of heavy metals in bad coins is completely insufficient, which will make it more difficult to issue good coins.

And just as Lu Yingmo was struggling with how to force out all the bad money, Ban Simiao spoke out about the confusion of having a large amount of money, which made Lu Yingmo who was already distressed even worse.

"Third Master, this matter didn't happen overnight, so naturally it can't be resolved overnight. Please, Third Master..."

"Master Ban, even though that is the case. However, if this matter is not resolved for a day, it will be like a stone on the chest, making people breathless, right? I think Master Ban and this king feel the same. The king has two days to let me think about the strategy. When the time comes, I will need the full cooperation of the master class."

Ban Simiao was a little confused for a moment.How difficult is it to issue new coins?Not to mention other issues.However, King Ye in front of him looked at him with eyes full of confidence, without any condescending contempt, which made people believe that he could really do what he said.

At this time, neither of them knew that Ban Simiao would admire him so much in the future, and spread the word about Lu Yingmo's great achievements during this period, winning countless hearts for him.

After waiting for two days, Lu Yingmo finally spoke.An announcement made Ban Simiao spread the announcement throughout Qingzhou immediately.

The content of the announcement is nothing more than to abolish all the large-amount transfers issued during the Tiance Army period, and declare that batch of large-amount transfers invalid.

The reason for such an announcement is simple.

One, cut through the mess quickly, the competition is speed, there is an announcement in front, even if someone comes to the government to make a theory in the future, it will be well-founded, leaving people speechless.

Second, these jiaozi are completely outrageously priced by lions. If their legitimacy is recognized, they must be allowed to exchange for good coins with sufficient gold, silver, and copper. The government cannot pay for that huge amount of wealth. Come.

Third, how can ordinary Limin people have such savings?Even if there was, in such a big environment, it would have been spent long ago.Only a small number of people have it in their hands.Then only offend this small group of people and save that huge fortune.The poor don't fight the rich, and the rich don't fight the government. The government says it's invalid, and they can't do anything no matter how angry they are.

However, the swift and resolute method does not end with a single announcement.

Immediately afterwards, the second instruction followed.

The directive multiplies the price of government-run projects, while private sales are strictly limited.

Lu Yingmo inspected the salt, iron, and wine monopoly operated by the government, and found that the transaction prices of government-run commodities had increased by a certain percentage.The gamble is psychological: when they know that the government abolished the Jiaozi issued during the Tiance Army period, they will completely lose confidence in the counterfeit currency.And when the people completely lose confidence in the currency in their hands, they will spend all the currency in their hands at all costs.There are two ways to spend it: to buy government-run goods, or to buy private goods.A shortage occurs when a private commodity is price-limited and then demand far outstrips supply.When private goods are in short supply, people can only buy official goods.

At this time, no matter how high the asking price of government-operated goods is, people will buy them.

Therefore, this instruction allowed the government to return the wealth to its own hands and obtain great benefits from it.

After that, Lu Yingmo issued the third order:

Do everything possible to prevent bad money from leaving Qingzhou.The same situation must not be allowed to happen in other states!

The three instructions brought clarity to the chaotic market.Ban Simiao and the general public felt gratified by this, and their hopes for His Royal Highness Ye's method doubled.

After three successive notices were released, Ban Simiao was looking forward to it every day, looking forward to the official's report and the third master's next move.The first two times alone have already had a great effect.

The emperor paid off, and Lu Yingmo finally sent someone to bring the news.However, this time, instead of sending any good solutions, Ban Simiao asked Ban Simiao to help find someone with the best craftsmanship in Qingzhou, including carpenters, masons, potters, and blacksmiths.

Long before he asked Ban Simiao for a craftsman, Lu Yingmo asked Feng Xiao and Xue Xing to find a painter from friends in the world, and repainted them according to the style of the original coins, adding certain anti-counterfeiting patterns.In order to avoid imitation, it must be operated by the most skilled masters.In the future, as long as they see these new coins, people from other states will have confidence in the currency within Qingzhou and dare to come here to do business, which will help revitalize Qingzhou's economy.

Lu Yingmo did not gather all the masters, but asked the governor to give them a certificate to send them to carry out activities in different places.

He sent people to inspect every day and night until the last new coin was minted.

Lu Yingmo ordered that the heavy metal content of gold, silver, and copper in all new coins must be strictly in full, not one cent less, and those who violate the order will be beheaded!

After the matter was completed, Lu Yingmo gave them a generous reward.

This is the way Lu Yingmo does things.He never treats those who help him with errands.He absolutely hated and would never kill someone who betrayed his trust.

During this period of time, Lu Yingmo wrote to Lu Guang, put forward a proposal on the ins and outs of issuing new coins, and obtained Lu Guang's approval, so as not to be labeled as a privately coined coin.Lu Guang agreed. He understands the truth that serious illness requires strong medicine. Only by doing so can future troubles be eliminated forever.

Only when a dead horse is treated as a living horse doctor can the disease be cured.
