My Backyard is the Tang Dynasty
Chapter 306: Li Yin's warning
It has been almost two months since Li Shimin went to Yizhou to escape the summer heat, and then got married to Su Moer. After the excitement, Li Yin's life returned to the right track, and then he faced three princes and a princess. study problems.
"Sizi is still too young, so I don't think we should send her to school. It's better to let her learn something in the palace, and then send her to Yizhou Primary School." In the dormitory, Cui Yingying sat on the sofa opposite her with her arms around her. Li Yin said.
Li Yin was looking at Yizhou's financial report, and he said: This is not appropriate. The purpose of the school is to teach knowledge, and the second is to let them learn the most basic interpersonal communication. How can we lock her in the palace. "
Cui Yingying felt that what Li Yin said made sense, so she looked at Si Zi who was eating the chicken cake, and asked with a smile, "Si Zi, where do you want to go to school?"
Wiping the bread crumbs from his mouth, Sizi said: "I want to go to school with Su Xiaoyan."
"Look, I want to go to school myself." Li Yin said proudly. Su Xiaoyan is currently studying in Yizhou Primary School. Because of the intervention of intelligent people, Li Yin re-divided Yizhou's education model and asked Li Ran to give it to him. The most suitable education plan was developed, so there is a big difference between Yizhou Primary School and modern primary schools. Except for Chinese and mathematics, which are the basic courses, the others are supplementary courses, just to let them understand some scientific knowledge. As for the promotion to Yizhou Junior High School , the mode of the courses will change again, and they will choose courses to study completely according to their own interests, and the others will be draft courses, and this mode will remain until the end of the university. Now that Sizi has said so, and Li Yin agrees, Cui Yingying just said: "Then do as Your Highness says.".
Li Yin has always been a hands-off shopkeeper, although Li Yin has made plans for several people to study in the future. But Cui Yingying still needs to take care of the daily life and study of the four people, so he said, "Then I will leave this matter to you."
Cui Yingying nodded, and said "Yes", she is all right now, and she can relieve her boredom with her son-in-law by her side. As for the other three princes, Li Yin personally disciplined them, and it was still inappropriate for her in her role.
After reading Yizhou's financial report from the beginning to the end, Li Yin suddenly remembered the matter of minting rights. Today he has received news from Chang'an that Li Shimin has announced the lifting of restrictions on Li Yin's land minting rights in the morning. Get up and say: "I have something to go out." He left the palace, went directly to the government office in Yizhou, and then asked Rongda to summon the main government officials.
Receiving Li Yin's order, many officials including Shangguanyi soon went to the Yizheng Hall of the Yizhou government office to wait for Shangguanyi. After Guan Sixing, Dou Xiande and others arrived, Li Yin said, "I have some good news to share with you." Li Yin smiled all over his face. Seeing that Li Yin was very happy and showed a relaxed expression, they thought that something was wrong. Li Yin specially held a meeting to scold them, Shangguan Yi said: "Since Your Highness is so happy, it must be a very important matter. " Shangguan Yi said.
Li Yan nodded and said: "That's right, news from Chang'an. The emperor has lifted the restrictions on the right to mint coins in my fiefdom, and now we can mint coins freely."
"The right to mint coins, my God. Your Highness, this is a great thing!" Guan Sixing said excitedly after hearing this: "Now copper coins are no longer suitable for transactions in Yizhou. For example, the price of rice can only be paid by bucket. However, it is impossible to pay for a catty of rice, because it is not even a penny. Some merchants in the market also cut copper coins into half to use, which is very cumbersome. The merchants also complained a lot. "
Dou Xiande is in charge of the agricultural affairs on the fief, he nodded and said: "The Governor Guan is right. Especially in county towns and villages, this phenomenon is more common."…
"Besides, the cash circulating in the market is no longer enough. Many merchants use the banknotes of the Shengtang Bank for transactions. This is not an option." Shangguanyi also said in a shirt.
Li Yin nodded. This information is exactly what he currently has. Currency reform is imminent. Otherwise, once the industrial revolution starts, it will seriously limit the economic development of Yizhou. So he said: "This is also my worry. , but it is not a problem now, with the minting rights, we can release new currencies to the market, but at the same time, we must also pay attention to controlling the amount of injection, so as not to cause economic disorder.”
"Then how does Your Highness plan to mint new coins, and how many new coins do you plan to mint this time?" Shangguanyi asked the most practical question.
Li Yin thought for a while and said: "This time the new currency will use a large amount of paper money as the main currency and copper coins as the supplementary monetary policy. Among them, copper coins are divided into three categories according to the size of the copper coins: cent, jiao, and wen, while paper money is one penny, five pennies. Wen, ten wen, twenty wen, fifty wen, one hundred wen, five hundred wen and yiguan, one of which can be exchanged for ten cents, and one dime can be exchanged for ten cents. No problem, what do you think?"
What Li Yin said, all the officials were talking about it, Guan Sixing said: "Your Highness, paper money is feasible, because many merchants now use money bills for transactions, which will not cause any major problems, but money bills are Relying on the copper coins stored in the bank by the merchants, but if we issue banknotes for free, how can we make the common people dare to use this kind of currency.”
"What Guan Shishi said is that when issuing coins, Shengtang Bank will complete an essential change, that is, Shengtang Bank will operate as an agency of the government in the future, and will formulate the exchange ratio of gold, silver and banknotes. Establish gold and silver reserves, so that the common people should feel at ease, as long as Yizhou does not collapse, their money will not become waste paper." Li Yin continued to throw out new reform measures.
The officials discussed again, but this time they basically nodded frequently.
"Your Majesty is wise, the Prosperous Tang Bank now has a very important position in the hearts of both the common people and businessmen. In this way, the currency reform in Yizhou will be carried out naturally." Tong Nian has been in charge of the Prosperous Tang Bank for so long , naturally understood the meaning of it.
Li Yan smiled and said nothing when he heard the words, and the other officials did not raise any new objections after discussion, which was regarded as agreeing with the interest statement.
"Since you all have no opinions, then this matter is settled like this. I will publish the form of the coin in Yizhou Daily and Shengtang Business Daily in a few days. You can learn about the form of the new currency from the newspaper." Li Yin said that since then he has completely controlled the economy of the fief.
"Yes, Your Highness!" the officials said.
Putting the matter of currency aside, Li Yin mentioned another matter, his face suddenly became serious, and said: "I think you all know about the fact that my king went to Ryukyu some time ago. When I passed the Jiangling pier, I The king has seen the degree of corruption of the local officials. Although Jiangling is not under the rule of the king, it is enough to attract the attention of the king. You are all parents and officials in the fiefdom. I hope that you can be honest and upright , This is also the reason why this king raises your monthly salary so high, so that you can live comfortably, and you can make profits for the people and benefit the fief from the beginning, but at the same time, this king also believes that there are unclean people among you. The state is developing too fast, and the temptations you face are getting bigger and bigger."
Li Yin paused for a moment, and glanced at the officials sitting below, "However, being too tempted doesn't mean that you can let go of the principles of being an official and corrupt the law. In order to enjoy the idea, this king advises you to resign, otherwise you will lose your head when the time comes, don’t blame this king for not reminding you, there are many talents in Yizhou University of Political Affairs! They are all looking forward to having vacancies.”
Li Yin's sudden and stern warning immediately silenced the more than three hundred officials sitting under the Yizheng Hall. Many officials with ghosts in their hearts were so frightened that a layer of cold sweat broke out on their bodies, including Shangguanyi's heart was also chilly. He understood The era when Li Yin conquered the world three years ago has passed, and now Li Yin is starting to stabilize his fiefdom.
