For more than three months, Zhao Guangmei has been secretly ordering Sun Liancheng to collect Nanqian.

However, while he was collecting it, he was actually entrusting Li Shouzhen, Wang Yanchao and others to secretly release it. Especially, he also contacted Han Lingkun's younger brother Han Lingjun. Every time he collected 10,000 nanqian, he would

Ask Han Lingjun to help him spend 20,000 yuan outside.

Then try their best to spread good news about Nanqian to the market.

For example, after Li Jing's death, Li Yu did not plan to mint Nan coins, but would issue new coins again. Such rumors were spread by Zhao Guangmei.

He is now in charge of the Third Secretary, so it is too easy to spread some random rumors.

Everyone thinks that Han Lingjun represents Han Lingkun. His money comes from Yangzhou and even the Southern Tang Dynasty. Naturally, they don't doubt others. Of course, the most important thing is that many smart people think that since Zhao Guangmei is still there.

If you accept it, then there will definitely be no problem.

Who doesn’t know that Zhao Guangmei made the most money this time?

Who doesn’t know that Zhao Guangmei is now the deputy envoy of the Third Department, and he is looking at the bones of a dog.

He is collecting them all, which shows that there is definitely room for promotion and the money can continue to rise.

In fact, the current Nanqian is no longer a currency. Its value is so high that no one will spend it at all. And if anything is speculated, once the price deviates from the actual value, it will soon

Becoming crazy, a bit like Dutch tulips, Clivia in the 1990s, it is clearly a game of who is the last fool*.

Just speculating and speculating like this, Zhao Guangmei had less and less Nanqian in her hand, and saw that there was less than one million yuan left. The other Nanqian was all exchanged for silver and gold at a very high price.

Shu brocade, Tang weaving and other hard currencies, and it is obviously becoming more and more difficult to export goods. I know that the remaining bookmakers, whether they are from Shu or any Jiedushi, are almost unsustainable.

Naturally, it’s time to close the net.

Xue Juzheng, on the other hand, admired Zhao Guangmei so much. At first, Zhao Guangmei secretly shipped goods but continued to speculate on Nanqian. He still couldn't understand it. But gradually, as Nanqian speculated higher and higher, the more crazy the speculation became.

Not only did Zhao Guangmei make a lot of money from this, but Song's money actually rose back!

Because there is no more Nanqian available on the market!

Naturally, the only ones left are Song money and Shu money. If Song money is not used, what will the common people use?

The use of currency is often a matter of habit. Once a currency forms a habit, it will be difficult for the court to force it to change. Moreover, although Zhao Guangmei has done nothing in the Third Division during this period, there is indeed nothing.

Song money has been sent out again.

Compared with Nan Qian, the value of Song Qian is indeed declining, but in fact the purchasing power has gradually returned.

Silver has also dropped compared with Nanqian!

Now, all we need to do is knock down Nan Qian in one go.

And Li Yu also gave him the opportunity to win down Nan Qian.

"Your Highness, Your Highness, the memorial to Duanwen Palace is submitted by Li Yu. Li Jing is dead."

"How to say?"

"Li Yu begged the officials to be kind and allow him to bury Li Jing with imperial rites. The officials wanted to allow it and also give him gifts."

"Okay, it's time to make a break."

After that, Zhao Guangmei happily went to find Zhao Kuangyin.

When Zhao Guangmei came out of the palace not long after, he had already written a reply to the Southern Tang Dynasty. It probably contained three things:

First, it was agreed that Li Jing should be buried with imperial rites, and Zhao Kuangyin also gave some gifts as part of his contribution.

Second, Li Yu was canonized as the leader of the Southern Tang Dynasty and a number of gifts were also given.

Third, order Li Yu to pay tribute of 10 million yuan.

At the same time, Han Lingkun was ordered to prepare troops and horses in Yangzhou and recruit warships. Once Li Yu refused to pay tribute, he would fight directly across the Yangtze River. At the same time, the officers and soldiers stationed in Beijing were ready to go out and be ready to support at any time!

For a time, the whole country was in an uproar and the world was shaken.

Those people who had hoarded a large amount of Southern money suddenly realized that the Southern Tang Dynasty might not be under the control of the Song Dynasty!

If Li Yu had given this money, it would have been 10 million yuan! Who has such a big appetite to eat it? Once this money is in the hands of the court and distributed, the price of Nanqian will definitely not be sustainable.<

/p>

And if Li Yu doesn't give it, the Southern Tang Dynasty will fight with the Song Dynasty, or the Song Dynasty will destroy the Southern Tang Dynasty and then ban Nanqian.

Either way, if the war breaks out, bilateral trade will be interrupted. The biggest reason for relying on the value of Nanqian, that is, the supply and market of Southern Tang, will definitely be cut off within a few years at least.

As for losing, no one has really thought about it.

After Li Yu received the edict, everyone was stunned.

You must know that this is the Five Dynasties period, and the Central Plains are not the only ones who are revolving around. It's just that the southern region is not as good as the military class. Compared with the northern Central Plains, it is indeed more stable, but it is just a little bit.

He has just succeeded to the throne, and his father has just died. This is when his Southern Tang regime is at its most vulnerable. I am already so respectful, but you still want to blackmail me into war? Why are you so shameless?

Shameless, shameless, simply shameless. My father treated the Later Zhou Dynasty and the Northern Song Dynasty with no disrespect. His income was never less than the slightest bit less every year. He insisted on using only the courtesy of the ruler of the country every day, and regarded you as the Great Song Dynasty as the Zhengshuo of China.

As a result, his bones are still cold and he hasn’t even passed the first seven days of his life, yet he is acting like a hooligan?

Where can I go to find these ten million guan? What is the concept? Nan Tang’s annual income does not even exceed 10 million guan.

In anger, Li Yu wished he could follow Chai Rong's lead in the Battle of Gaoping and fight with Han Lingkun and Zhao Kuangyin.

Then not long after, he received a "secret edict" from Han Lingkun. The "secret edict" said that he didn't need to actually give 10 million copper coins, but the whole one million copper coins was more interesting. The remaining nine million could be divided into installments.

Pay slowly, and you can also use lacquerware and silk to offset the debt.

Of course, you have to keep a low profile and not make any noise. We are just trying to get some praise. As for you, it means that when you leave your name in history, it won’t look so good, so just be patient and let it go.

Li Yu was so angry that he pulled out his sword and yelled in the north direction with gritted teeth. New

Then, he ordered to collect and mint copper coins for the Song Dynasty.

The mint machine that had been shut down for a long time also started working, working overtime day and night to honor the Song Dynasty.

At the same time, Zhao Guangmei finally made a big move.

First, they took the officials from the Salt and Iron Division of Duzhi Branch, pushed them out, chopped them off, and hung their heads to show the public.

Then he said sadly to the people watching the excitement: "It's just these big rats and borers, they... they are bad! They actually mixed iron into copper when minting coins to line their own pockets. Dear fellow villagers, please use the money mixed with iron."

It was definitely not the intention of the imperial court. It was all done by these corrupt officials. After several months of hard work, I finally found them out!"

"First, from now on, any Song Dynasty money mixed with iron will never be allowed to circulate in the market. Violators will be punished as counterfeit money for private use and will be abandoned!"

"Secondly, I promise on behalf of Duzhisi that if you take any Song money mixed with iron in your hand, I will order the secretary under my command to set up a pavilion here, and exchange one for one, and I will exchange it for you with pure copper."

If there are any corrupt officials who dare to interfere with your affairs, they will be personally supervised by the supervisors in front of the palace. If there is one, kill them right here!"

"Third, from now on, the Du Branch will issue another batch of iron coins. Compared with copper coins, the price is ten to one. You are also welcome to exchange Shu coins for one to one with iron coins."
