Sheng Shi Merciful Light

Human nature is so strange. Chinese people have a sense of national superiority. Because of their superiority, they have enough "tolerance" for those who are not as good as themselves, and they will also hire talented Hu people.

Of course, it is absolutely unbearable for a beard that tarnishes the noble lineage of China.However, there are exceptions, for those who are as powerful as Mei Rong... It's not a question of whether you can bear it, but that you can't bear it if you want to.

Because Mei Rong is powerful, her sense of presence is too strong, and Fei Yang is so confident... that she cannot be underestimated. Of course, it is even more itchy.

Mei Rong was at the window, and looked at the pier with binoculars for a while, her expression was determined, she was confident, but her tone was hesitant: "Double the efficiency, give me half a month?"

Bao Yuan also said that he was afraid and complacent: "If you find it very difficult, you can extend the time appropriately, 20 days? Or, do you need a month? A year?" After that, he laughed.

But this didn't make anyone laugh, everyone stared at him like a fool.

Bao Yuan: "..." What kind of eyes are these?

Mei Rong smiled, didn't bother to refute, and continued to look at the pier.When the food was served, Mu Cilamerong sat down and said, "Fill your stomach first, then we'll talk about it."

"En." Mei Rong sat down to eat.

Mou Yu also started to eat, as for Bao Yuan, if you like to stand, you can stand.

Bao Yuan: "..." What should I do?But because Mu Ci was eating, he didn't dare to remind her.

After eating, Mei Rong wiped her mouth and nodded: "I'll take it, but it won't take half a month."

"How long?" Mu Ci asked first.

Mei Rong smiled brightly at him: "Seven days will do."

Bao Yuan's eyes lit up, and he immediately made a decision: "Okay, he is a man, seven days is seven days. And...Your Highness, you can't help him."

Bao Yuan knew that His Highness had many methods.

Mu Ci nodded quickly: "Okay, he doesn't need my help either."

Bao Yuan knew that the king of Chu kept his word, and if he said in secret that he would not help, he would not help Mei Rong.Only then did he put away his ugly face, thinking that this beard would definitely fall on his arrogance this time.

Bao Yuan hadn't been complacent for too long, Mu Ci said: "Open source, but I think your gambling method is unfair to Xinghai."

Bao Kaiyuan frowned: "Your Highness, I have no regrets."

Mu Ci said: "Don't worry, I don't mean to go back on my word, it's just that Xinghai's identity, you haven't admitted it yet, suddenly go to the pier to issue orders, someone must be dissatisfied, his decision-making cannot be well implemented, and it will affect efficiency, which is not fair."

Mei Rong said: "Conquering people's hearts is also one of my tests."

Mu Ci looked at Mei Rong with gentle eyes: "Although you can do it, it must be very hard. I want you to take on heavy responsibilities. If you are exhausted, who can I find to work?"

Mei Rong didn't want to go against her good intentions, so she smiled without saying a word.

Bao Yuan can be trusted by Emperor Tianshou and reused by Mu Ci. He has excellent ability and character. He also thought of this, and said: "Your Highness's concerns are not wrong."

"Well, I want to give Xinghai a fair chance." Mu Ci said seriously.

Mei Rong's eyes flickered, this was the first time he heard it from a Chinese - give him fairness!This is still the king of Chu who is lucky to be above all people...

Mei Rong's eyes were full of love, and she held Mu Ci's hand tightly.

Bao Yuan asked: "Then what does His Highness think is fair?"

Mu Ci said: "In this way, you also go to the dock, Xinghai orders, you obey, and then order the dock stewards and workers. You still have some prestige at the dock, so all Xinghai's orders can be well executed. How about it?"

Bao Yuan: "..." Don't you still have to listen to Hu Zi?

However, regardless of Mei Rong's bearded identity, even if the Chinese people "airborne" to the pier suddenly, the order will be discounted, and there are many green-skinned gangsters among the pier stewards and laborers. It is true that the capacity cannot be displayed. , Although Bao Yuan wanted to win, he was unwilling to use cunning means. After thinking about it, he gritted his teeth and nodded: "Okay!"

"You already knew my position on Xinghai yesterday. I didn't want him to be a port steward. So, this arrangement is not unfair to you." Mu Ci said.

Bao Yuan pursed his lips and frowned, but he could only nod his head, feeling that His Highness really preferred Mei Rong, and everything was planned for him.

"Six days!" Mei Rong said suddenly.

What?Everyone looked at him.

Mei Rong burst into a smile, her deep blue eyes flickered with bright light eager to try, and her deep magnetic voice was firm and firm: "I said seven days, it was time to subdue the people. Now the king has solved this problem for me, I can't take advantage of it. Since we want to be fair, let's reduce it to six days, and use my real ability to make everyone really admire me."

Mu Ci grabbed Mei Rong: "It's too much, it will tire you."

"No!" Mei Rong beamed with a smile, "Wang, you trust me, give me fairness, and I will let you know that this is the most correct decision you have ever made."

That bright and confident smile made Mei Rong exude an extremely sexy charm from the inside out.Mu Ci's heart skipped a beat, and Mingjing Wuchen's still old heart beat faster in his chest.

In this world, there is a kind of person who, even if he is discriminated against by others because of his appearance, still has a firm soul, believes in himself, and works hard to realize his own value, so a true self-confidence charm emerges from the heart.

No one or any difficulty can defeat him, even the turbulent waves, suffering and humiliation are just a kind of cutting and sharpening of diamonds for him.

Polished diamonds only need a little sunshine and rain to exude dazzling brilliance.Even in the deepest and coldest seabed, he can't stop him from emitting his own light.

Appreciation accumulated and gradually fermented, Mu Ci knew that he fell in love with Mei Rong thoroughly.

Mei Rong is also worthy of deep love.

Mu Ci looked at Mei Rong, with dark eyes full of smiles, full of admiration and admiration.He stretched out his hand, and held Mei Rong's face with both hands, his voice was as gentle as dripping water: "Xinghai..."

He originally wanted to say: One day, not only me, but the world will recognize you fairly, and your light will eventually penetrate the deep seabed, jump out of the water, and blind everyone's eyes.

Mei Rong smiled brightly, and said in a calm and firm voice, "Thank you!"

"You don't need to thank you. In fact, you deserve everything." Mu Ci didn't want to say anything anymore. This person didn't need any comfort, no promises, and no need for others to give him a fairness.

——Because the world owes him fairness, he has been fighting for it with his own hands.

Never stop!

Mu Ci just nodded: "Do whatever you want!" He made a seemingly ordinary but serious promise.

……

Mei Rong is a man of action, so he separated from Mu Ci directly and settled in Shunfeng Wharf. Due to the short time and heavy tasks, Mei Rong and Bao Yuan directly lived in the wharf, which was convenient for working day and night—there were too many ships waiting to unload outside the wharf, 24 hours a day.

During the six days, Mu Ci did abide by the agreement, and did not see Mei Rong, nor did she ask about anything at the port, and only told the palace to deliver love meals on time.

As the King of Chu, Mu Ci is always on top of things and has many things to do.

After the holiday, Mu Ci submitted the agenda as usual in the early morning court. Although he did not recite the small silk cloth at the court, it still made the entire Daxing senior management tremble three times, and a big earthquake occurred.

The king of Chu proposed to issue new money nationwide.

The king of Chu took out the improved new money, not to mention the lack of a square hole in the middle, and changed the denomination.Fortunately, there are only copper coins one by one, and one thousand coins can only be exchanged for one tael of silver, and the silver needs to be weighed.

On the basis of the original copper coin, the king of Chu mixed different proportions of silver to make five copper coins, ten copper coins, twenty, fifty, and one hundred copper coins in different denominations.At the same time, there are silver coins, with denominations of one tael, two taels, five taels, ten taels, 20 taels, and 50 taels.The highest minting one or two gold coins.

Each piece is sufficient, of which one thousand copper can be exchanged for one or two silver coins, and one hundred silver can be exchanged for one gold coin.

Immediately, a censor criticized the conversion of the new money as too cumbersome, and he was afraid that the people would not know how to count.

In fact, fortunately, half of the people have read books. Even if they are street peddlers, not to mention literate, at least they can calculate money clearly.And the new money has a denomination, so just calculate according to the above value.Of course, this attack was easily refuted by the officials who were close to the King of Chu.

Some people also said that they were afraid that lawless people would use copper mixed with tin to make money with a denomination of one hundred coppers. Wouldn't it hurt the interests of the people?

This is the truth. Luckily, among the copper coins circulating in the market, there are really some daring private workshops who privately mint low-quality copper coins, killing batch after batch, and they are still repeatedly banned.

Mu Ci also responded to the anti-counterfeiting of coins.

The new method of casting coins is a punch made of hydraulic machinery, which is formed by punching copper plates one by one after thinning them.Muci designed the coins, which have concave and convex characters and graphics, and a circle of very uniform and even serrations on the edge.

One is to prevent someone from cutting off the edge of the coin, and the insufficient amount is also used as a sufficient denomination.Secondly, it is also to increase the difficulty of counterfeiting and private casting.Besides, hydraulic stamping and casting money can squeeze private money to the corner of the market just by output.

Of course, Mu Ci did not explain in detail what a hydraulic press is, and the new method of minting coins is now Daxing's top secret.

Issuing new money is a century-old national policy, and it is impossible to make a decision at one court meeting.Together with King Guangling, the King of Chu and King Guangling blew out another thunderstorm—they applied for Emperor Deguang's approval to issue drafts and banknotes at the Daxing Royal Bank.

The censor is eager to refute it, but... because of the short-sightedness of some officials in the court, they don't want to use the honor of scholars to make money in business, so fortunately, the Royal Bank is a private industry that the king of Chu, the emperor and the king of Guangling have expanded out of their own pockets.

Fortunately, private property is sacred and inviolable, and the emperor can't just expropriate the people, so... who can interfere with the emperor's private property?Of course he can decide how to run the business.

What?Proposed in court?The whole world belongs to the emperor, and the imperial palace belongs to the emperor. There is nothing wrong with the emperor talking about things in his own home, right?

In fact, Mu Ci was willing to talk about it in private, but fortunately the Royal Bank also undertakes business across the country, which is related to the well-being of all people, so he finally decided to bring it up at the court meeting.

Besides, the Shang Dynasty can be written into the residence newspaper to expand its influence, and it is convenient to use the royal reputation as a guarantee.

Because of the limitations of history, the ancients were more accustomed to using real gold and silver, which felt weighty and felt at ease.Therefore, most of everyone's attention is focused on whether the new coins can be circulated.Not so keen at all, realizing that the circulation of money orders and banknotes-paper money is the new thing that really changes the entire society.

Therefore, money orders and banknotes were put into circulation smoothly.

Maybe it was a few days off and something was suppressed.Where there is depression, there is a rebound, so the first morning court after the holiday is doomed to be uneven.

After the king of Chu threw the bomb, another censor jumped out, impeaching the king of Chu for illegally obtaining private wealth in the name of cracking down on smuggling, and killing businessmen wantonly.

There are also envoys from Beirong and Xiliang who directly submitted their credentials to protest, saying that the king of Chu and the king of Changshan cracked down on smuggling and fished across the border, and the attack went to their border.

All the generals know about this, and it is true, because not only Daxing merchants participated in the smuggling, but also Beirong and Xiliang merchants. Daxing Frontier Army also implemented merit points, and the Daxing Royal Bank opened was really exchanged for bonuses , the money is not reduced, and the accumulated merits can be mixed into the Hall of Martyrs.

For a while, the frontier army sang praises to His Majesty the Emperor, and even obeyed the king of Chu. They all fought smuggling like chicken blood, and accidentally used too much force, and the king of Chu deliberately did it...the frontier army chased Bei Rong , Xiliang's smugglers have crossed the line.

In the letter of credence, countries strongly requested the emperor to order the king of Chu to stop all actions against smuggling.He also provoked and threatened that if Emperor Deguang ordered the King of Chu not to move, don't blame them for raising troops. Who told the King of Chu to provoke first.

Because Emperor Deguang has been unwilling to let go of reopening the border trade, and the King of Chu has been cracking down on smuggling, making the situation very tense.The envoys sent by various countries to Daxing have higher status each time.This time because of celebrating the festival, his status is not very noble, but his status is higher than before, and he is somewhat related to the royal family and the descendant family.

All these made Emperor Deguang mild-tempered, the King of Chu was young, and the relationship between the two brothers was delicate, so they all jumped up and down happily, which made Emperor Deguang very angry.

However, because he submitted the letter of credence to protest, even if Emperor Deguang didn't want to embarrass the ninth brother, he still had to ask: "Ninth brother, is the envoy's statement true?"

Mu Cidao: "Eleven years ago, our country and its neighboring countries were brotherly countries, and they traded with each other to exchange what they had. But the four countries such as Beirong and Xiliang lacked the hearts of the people, so they used the copper and iron traded from our country to make weapons. Invading our borders, burning, killing, and looting are all evil. The father of the late emperor conquered, and the officers used their lives to repel the invaders and strictly stop border trade, right? "Everyone wiped their sweat, it is true.

"The prohibition of mutual trading is to avoid repeating the same mistakes and being bitten again by white-eyed wolves. Nowadays, there are unscrupulous businessmen who ignore the ban, evade the border officers and soldiers, do business privately, and even sell ironware out of the country, regardless of their home and country. Ming canonical punishment?"

It should be, and no one can refute it, not even the censor who impeached King Chu.

Fighting against smuggling is a must.

Some people winked at King Guangling - this man was involved in smuggling with a caravan and was killed.But King Guangling watched his heart, nose and nose, not knowing whether he was in meditation or fell asleep.

Mu Ci continued: "There are evil merchants in Beirong and Xiliang who disregarded the ban and traded with our traitorous merchants. How can they not be wiped out? Don't think that if you hide back, you can write off the crime. If you don't want our frontier army to enter and wipe out the illegal merchants , the four countries can hand over the illegal businessmen."

Later, the envoys who heard this said: "..." The king of Chu has a sharp and cruel appearance that does not match Ruan Meng's appearance, and it is really not a lie.

The current envoys still don't know that with the absence of the lover of King Chu and the accumulation of longing, he will become more and more sharp and cruel!

Emperor Deguang knew the purpose of the ninth brother, so he couldn't ruin the plan of the ninth brother.He praised very cooperatively: "The ninth brother is worried about state affairs, and it is also my emperor's order to crack down on smuggling."

The officials knew early on that the emperor was the younger brother, so they dared not scratch the two brothers' beards, and kept silent like cicadas.

After the Emperor Deguang sprayed his ministers, he became very angry with the Minister of Hongzhi Temple, and asked what it meant for foreigners to smuggle in despite the ban.He even asked the courtiers who spoke for foreign envoys, what kind of heart do they have?

Depressed envoys: "..." The emperor has to listen to the king of Chu, it's not a lie.

The envoys, who felt that there must be a rift between the two brothers and could take advantage of it, rushed all the way on the road of "death"...
