"My brother has seen the official family, that... well, long live it."

In the palace, Zhao Guangmei treated Zhao Kuangyin with the courtesy of a monarch and a minister for the first time, with a flattering smile on his face, like a flatterer.

He was actually a little scared, because he really thought that he would definitely make a lot of money this time, but he really didn't expect that he would make so much, and Zhao Kuangyin actually lost so much.

Who would have thought there would be such a big surprise?

To say that it would shake the country's foundation and affect the foundation of Zhao Kuangyin's rule, that would certainly not be the case. However, if this wave is not handled well, it may damage Zhao Kuangyin's prestige and seriously undermine the national power of the Song Dynasty.

Zhao Kuangyin could obviously be restrained and calm with Xue Juzheng before, but now when he saw Zhao Guangmei, he couldn't help but his face suddenly turned ugly, and he said in a strange way:

"It's rare that you are so polite and polite today. Third brother, you are so capable. How about I just abdicate and give up my position to you now?"

Then there was a snap, and Zhao Kuangyin was slapped on the back of the head.

Empress Dowager Du placed a stack of snacks and fruits on the table: "Speak carefully and don't bully your brother. Talk about something when you have something to say. Don't talk about carrying a gun and a stick."

Then he turned around and said to Xue Juzheng with a smile: "Ms. Xue is here too. Come on, let's sit down together and have some snacks together. You guys can chat. Let me, an old lady, make you a pot of tea myself."

."

The subtext behind the old lady's words is naturally very clear. I know you have something to say, so just say it to me. Don't even think about calling the third child away to bully him. I want to support him.

"Humph!"

Then Zhao Kuangyin sat down to eat honestly.

"How much did you earn this time?"

"Well... I haven't settled down yet, so it's hard to say. Anyway, at the current price, uh... Anyway, it's comparable to the imperial court's annual income for more than half a year."

"Ugh~"

Zhao Kuangyin, who was eating snacks, suddenly choked. A mouthful of food was stuck in his throat and he couldn't swallow it or spit it out. His face turned red and Zhao Guangmei was frightened. She quickly found a glass of water for him to drink.

.

"That means you are richer than me now?"

"Well... we can't just say that. Besides, it hasn't been cashed out yet. I can't always keep so many copper coins. I still have to exchange them for gold and silver later. With such a large amount of exchange, uh...

Anyway, the price of silver will definitely rise by then."

"You... ugh~, should you regret not listening to what you said? I'm thinking, if I could have asked for your opinion earlier instead of being angry with you, the situation would not be like this now.

What?"

"Well... after all, no one is born to govern. Brother, you were born as a soldier. Of course you are invincible in war, but running a country is different from fighting. Brother Pu used to be your staff, and Fan Zhi, the prime minister, is essentially

Chai Rong’s clerical secretary, Xue Xianggong used to be in charge of criminal matters in the Ministry of Punishment, and Wang Pu and Wei Renpu, one is engaged in history and the other is engaged in law. There are specialties in the field. You don’t understand. This is normal. Learn slowly?

."

Zhao Kuangyin looked at him sideways after hearing this.

"Well... I'm different. People like me are unparalleled in the world. There are only two or three of them in five thousand years. If anyone can't think of it and always compares with me, his heart will gradually become abnormal."

"…………"

"Pfft, you are still so unruly and have no humility at all, but what you said may actually make sense."

After thinking about it, Zhao Kuangyin said seriously: "There is not much difference between the money you make and the money I make. Maybe I should really thank you. If it weren't for you, this money might have been made by others."

"But since our family is a royal family, the so-called Tian family is selfless. No matter how much the country's money is, it is still not enough. And what is the meaning of the money in our pockets? How can we spend money?"
p>

Zhao Guangmei interrupted when he heard this: "I understand, brother, you are looking for me to help you give me some advice to bring back the value of Song's money, right? This Song Dynasty is the Song Dynasty of our Zhao family, so what can I do?"

Maybe we are helping outsiders poach the corners of our own home? The reason why we make this money is to prevent the wealth from going to outsiders."

Zhao Kuangyin was overjoyed and said with a smile: "It's rare for you to be so generous. What are your ideas?"

"Now that things have happened, I'm afraid this really can't be done with just one idea. If I take action, I'm afraid I need... well, full participation in the whole process, and even a little bit of leadership."

"Okay, how about I add you as the deputy envoy of the third department and jointly take charge of this matter with Xue Qing?"

"Okay."

Then Zhao Guangmei realized afterwards, hey? How come I became the deputy envoy of the Third Division?

Will my position as a Bachelor of Privy Councilor still be retained?

Of course, the power of the three divisions in the early Song Dynasty cannot be compared with that in the middle Song Dynasty. Their power is relatively small. In fact, they are still in the stage of competing with the Ministry of Households for financial rights.

But since I entered the Third Division, the Third Division is naturally not the same Third Division.

Thinking like this, Zhao Guangmei looked at Xue Juzheng unconsciously.

I saw Xue Juzheng showing a very flattering smile and said: "What Your Highness said to me that day, I thought about it for a long time after I went back. Especially these days, every time I think about it, I always feel that His Highness's words are deafening and enlightening.

Those who hold such a high position but do not understand the ways of finance and taxation are the sinners of the country."

After saying that, he bowed to Zhao Guangmei with great solemnity and said: "I have little talent and little knowledge, and I really don't understand the mysteries. To take on this important task, I sincerely ask Your Highness to be able to teach you freely in the future. I am willing to learn from you with an open mind and teach you."

The gift of life does not mean leaving a name in history, but we hope that we can live up to the kindness of the emperor and live up to the people."

After that, he kowtowed again.

‘Isn’t this much easier to talk to than Zhao Pu?’

Naturally, Zhao Guangmei hurriedly stepped forward to help Xue Juzheng up, and said with emotion: "Xue Xiangruo is willing to learn this economic method, which is actually the blessing of our Song Dynasty, the blessing of the people, and the blessing of the world. As for the etiquette of teachers and students, this

But there’s no need to talk about it anymore, let’s go, let’s go to your house now, you can have a good chat with me and come up with a practical plan.”

"Yes, your highness will lose your money."

"What kind of money is this? It's just making less money. In fact, what's the point of making more money? Do I really dare to squander it on my own? I made a lot of money, but half of it,

It was taken out from the pockets of the Forbidden Army officers, and the remaining half was taken out from the pockets of Kaifeng Mansion and several other nearby government offices. It was originally meant to be spent back by them."<
