Chapter One Thousand and Fifty-Three: The Silver Light Shines in People's Hearts

Thanks: "Miaomiao Children" for the rewards!

...

Zhu Zhanji refused the guards, and rode alone in front, his eyes slowly swept across the people, his face sinking like water.

There was only the sound of breathing, so many heavy breaths gathered together, as if a big bellows was panting.

"Ahem!"

A cough broke the atmosphere, Fang Xing followed up from behind, and said in a low voice, "Calm down first."

Zhu Zhanji nodded, rode his horse to the door of the household department, glanced at Zhao Yuanzhen who was being rescued, and ignored Ma Yiyuan and Zhou Yingtai at all.

Riding his horse and turning around, Zhu Zhanji looked at the panic-stricken people with complicated eyes, remembering what Fang Xing said.

People are easy to deceive and not easy to deceive! It's easy to cheat because their requirements are very low, and they are prosperous when they are fed and clothed.

It's not easy to cheat, and it will mostly happen when you don't trust the government. When the people have been deceived many times, it is useless to let your tongue bloom like a lotus flower!

Credibility! Daming needs credibility!

"Don't grab! Don't mess!"

Zhu Zhanji's eyes are deep, and his chin has a short and sparse beard, which makes him look dignified.

"The Great Ming conquered Jiaozhi in the south, conquered Yingzhou and North Korea, and swept through Duoyan Sanwei. Countless gold and silver mines, countless iron ore and copper mines are being developed, but this time the people of the Ming Dynasty were not allowed to participate, and they were all prisoners of war. Why?"

Zhu Zhanji's eyes sparkled: "Since last year, you should be able to perceive the reduction of labor, why?"

"Some people say that Ming is resorting to war, and the treasury must be empty and full of rats, but I'm here to tell you that these are all lies! Lies with ulterior motives!"

The people from Jubaoshanwei came up and formed a line of defense in front of Zhu Zhanji. According to Fang Xing's instructions, if someone attacks this line of defense, don't hesitate, take it if there are few people, and fire a warning shot if there are too many people.

"On the bayonet!"

Seventh Xin gave the order without hesitation.

In an instant, after a dense click, the bayonets standing in a row gleamed coldly in the drizzle.

Fang Xing said in a low voice: "Someone must be bewitching, go to Fei Shi and ask him to take the blame and perform meritorious service immediately."

As soon as this incident happened, although no murder was caused, the impact has already been caused, and no one can escape responsibility.

Fang Wu retreated quietly, while Zhu Zhanji's speech continued.

"Do you know? Some people are instigating trouble among you, what do they want to do?"

Zhu Zhanji turned his eyes around the crowd, waved his fists and said, "They want to subvert Daming, and use Daming's collapse in exchange for their selfishness! These people are among you at this moment!"

The taste of these words was very wrong, Wang He said beside Fang Xing: "Xing Hebo, Your Highness is angry!"

Fang Xing nodded and said: "It's time to get angry. No matter how kind people are, they can't tolerate those lunatics who are willing to destroy Daming for their own selfishness. Therefore, my department must be ready. Once His Highness gives the order, we will do it immediately. The whole The south is watching here, so we must act decisively, not hesitate to use thunderbolt means, and let Jinling City know that there will be a price for doing wrong things!"

Although there are suspicions of demagogy, these common people brazenly attacked the household department when they knew that the run on the treasure banknotes would lead to the collapse of the Ming Dynasty's economy. There must be a warning.

And the object of the warning...

"The officials in Jinling are incompetent, causing the people to panic! So what are you afraid of?"

Zhu Zhanji became more and more elegant, and he said calmly: "You are afraid that the treasures in your hands will become waste paper, but I want to tell you, that is impossible!"

Is it impossible if you say it is impossible?

If your majesty says it, we still believe it, but if you, a great-grandson, say it, that's pure nonsense!

Zhu Zhanji pointed to the direction of the pier and said: "At the pier at this moment, Yingzhou's silver ship has already docked. The silver is only used for storage and used to compensate the value of the treasure banknotes. Do you want it? Then Exchange it!"

Looking back, Zhu Zhanji showed his majesty: "Get ready, start the exchange!"

The military doctor of Jubaoshanwei had already taken over the task of rescuing Zhao Yuanzhen, and it was over now.

"Your Highness,

Mr. Zhao didn't cut the artery, so he couldn't die. "

The military doctor has been in the army for a long time, so his words naturally have a smell of anger.

Zhu Zhanji nodded and glanced at Ma Yiyuan.

Ma Yiyuan's body trembled, and he hurriedly yelled: "They're all out, hurry up, start exchanging!"

Those petty officials hurried to get up the overturned table, and then prepared the pen, ink, paper and inkstone.

"spread!"

Fang Xing nodded, and the Jubaoshan guards in front withdrew to the two sides.

The people in front are hesitating. At this moment, they are all afraid, afraid of being settled by Qiuhou.

Fang Xing shook his head, and asked someone to bring a commoner over.

"Exchange it for him!"

This person was the loudest before, but now he sat down tremblingly, and suddenly got up and said: "Your Highness, I made a mistake, if the money is changed, the family will have no money to buy food."

Zhu Zhanji was noncommittal, Wang He stepped forward and said, "Then why did you follow?"

"Get out of the way, silver is coming!"

The wheels of the bullock carts rolled on the ground, making a creaking sound, and the carts came slowly.

"Open the box!"

Since you want to deter, then don't be shy!

The escorting sergeant violently pried open the wooden box.

The silver light shines on people's eyes, and it also reflects people's hearts.

Much greed, much fear, much despair...

Zhu Zhanji looked at these living beings coldly, his heart was as bright as a mirror.

Carriages of oxen and horses came slowly, the people were stunned, those with ulterior motives were also stunned, and the officials of Jinling City were also stunned.

Boxes of silver were brought down and sent to the yard, the whole process was silent, as if a solemn ceremony was being held.

Zhu Zhanji sat high on the horseback, with deep eyes: "People who exchange money normally don't need to worry, just go home and live a good life, but don't regret it."

Holding silver in your hand, you can't spend it or use it, it's worse than the soil, at least the soil can grow food.

The silent crowd gradually dispersed, but the vehicles were still flowing, and the boxes piled up on the vehicle were shocking.

"How much money did Yingzhou send this time?"

Zhou Yingtai asked.

Ma Yiyuan said blankly: "I don't know, but I heard that there are a lot of silver mines in Yingzhou, and those Yingzhou people are mining day and night, and some places even use that gunpowder. There must be several million taels." .”

"With the help of gunpowder, the mining efficiency is very high. The people of Yingzhou are very obedient. This time, gold is also sent along with it."

The person who came with a large amount of gold and silver this time was Yu Cheng, the chief secretary of Yingzhou, Zuo Shenzheng, who had been an official in Yingzhou for a long time, and looked at him with a lot of decisiveness.

Fang Xing nodded and said: "Thanks for your hard work, gold is more important, so we must find a way to collect it at Yingzhou, and pay more attention to the gold in the mine, and transport it all to Beiping."

Fang Xing felt that it was inappropriate to use silver as the backing of the currency and was vulnerable to shocks.

"The world is vast, and the output of silver is bound to be large. In the future, it will be safer to use gold."
