Three days later, the counties and towns.

At this time, countless people gathered in the eight counties of Jingxiang.

There are many officials responsible for changing new coins, and many local soldiers are also maintaining order. Many people take out most of their money in their families to exchange for new coins.

"I, my family exchanges for 850 yuan."

A middle-aged strong man handed the copper coin in his hand, his eyes a little flustered and reluctant. As for the more than 800 Wuzhu coins he had worn, Cheng Liang was polished all of them.

The official took it and began to order it. Soon after, he picked up the pen and wrote the amount on the bamboo plaque, "Take this, take it next to you and get the new coins."

The strong man held the bamboo card and looked a little uneasy. Fortunately, it was organized by Zhang Xiu, otherwise it would be impossible for these people to take out their family money.

After a while, the strong man took over the new currency.

Looking at the brand new Chinese coins, his anxiety was slightly less. The Chinese coins were printed with more things and the weight was heavier than before.

Although he had received the new currency, he was still uneasy.

There are many people who have this kind of idea because they don’t know whether the market recognizes this kind of coins in the current market. What if they don’t recognize them?

Thinking of this, most people went to the market together after exchanged for new coins. In previous years, the market that could not be visited once a month was crowded with people.

There are many vendors in the market.

There are also many shops, all shouting.

But at this time, people were surging on the streets.

I heard someone shouting, "Have you heard it? The hundreds of merchants in the Jingzhou Chamber of Commerce, led by the Mi family, all declared to the public, responding to Prime Minister Zhang's new currency."

"Now, all shops in the city are prohibited from using old coins, all new coins are recognized, and all things sold are cheaper than daily purchases."

Everyone is spreading the story on the streets and alleys.

Countless people who exchanged new coins, looking at almost all the shops in the city, finally breathed a sigh of relief. The Jingzhou Chamber of Commerce was full of countless industries. If they recognized it, the new coins would be feasible.

For this reason, they smiled happily, and many people went directly to the cloth shop to pull a few feet of cloth. Now Jingzhou cloth is cheap and good, and can change a few new clothes for their families.

As for the street stalls, the vendors who were originally worried about them all received a lot of money at this time, not just because of their trust in Zhang Xiu.

For a time, the rate of new currency replacement increased by more than 10%.

Sunset, the palace is in the city.

The candles sway the lights and dispel the night.

In the hall, almost all the civil and military officials did not go back to rest. These days are very important to the entire Jingzhou, because the new currency has a great impact, but once it is launched, economic development will be controlled in their hands.

Looking at the Chinese book, Zhang Xiu looked smiling and said loudly: "Okay, this Mi family's business has really reduced a lot of burdens for us."

Although the Mi family will recognize the new currency no matter what, there is a big difference between active and passive. At least if it is actively recognized, the people will feel at ease.

Moreover, the Mi family not only recognized the new currency itself, but also specially joined hands with the entire chamber of commerce to declare their recognition to the public, and used the new currency to launch a wave of promotional activities, which was simply a stroke of magic.

"Lord, this move by the Mi family is very good, so you should reward him." Jia Xu also sighed with emotion. They didn't realize this at the first time, and they didn't expect the Mi family to act directly.

"An!" Zhang Xiu nodded, "Come here, go and summon Mi Zhu. He has helped a lot this time and must give him a reward."

"Lord, Jingzhou has nearly five million entries, and there are about two million entries in the area that can be counted during the day. More than two billion entries have been distributed."

"But in addition to our aristocratic families, many aristocratic families in Jingzhou are still waiting and watching." Chen Qun said.

"Haha, wait and see?" Zhang Xiu sneered, "No hurry. When they want to exchange new coins later, they will block their funds flow and collect tax points."

"I want to see if they can issue so much funding certificates. If they can't issue them, they will collect them all according to commercial tax. If they don't want to, they will ignore them."

Zhang Xiu said with a cold expression.

If the son is in hand today and the new currency is promoted, the lifeline of the aristocratic family is once again stuck in his hands. If he is disobedient, Zhang Xiu has a hundred ways to kill them.

Soon, Mi Zhu strides over.

Looking at Zhang Xiu, who was the first to be, Mi Zhu did not dare to be arrogant at all. Although he was his elder brother-in-law, Zhang Xiu was far superior to him in terms of talent and status.

He was very respectful and bowed, "Zhu has met the Prime Minister, but I don't know what the Prime Minister summoned him to the lower house late at night."

"Zi Zhong, don't be polite. You have helped me a lot this time. If you have any questions, you can just say that I will do as much as possible."

Zhang Xiu said with great respect.

The Mi family helped him deal with a lot of things, and now that the commercial tax is gradually increasing, sooner or later, the tax provided by the Jingzhou Chamber of Commerce will be an objective income.

"The Prime Minister is so serious. These are what he should do, and he dare not take credit for it." Mi Zhu quickly explained.

"Hey~, if you have merit, you have merit. There is nothing to do or not. What are the difficulties recently? If there is anything to tell me," Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice.

"Well, this," Mi Zhu hesitated slightly, "I'm not hiding the Prime Minister, Zhu does have some problems right now."

"First, in the Central Plains, because coins are widely circulated, the value of goods continues to rise, cloth, salt, etc. is not easy to sell, and countless goods are backlogged."

"Secondly, the roads entering Yizhou are limited. At present, local merchants in Yizhou are blocked and it is difficult to intervene. Nowadays, cloth, stone salt, etc. can only be produced and sold by ourselves, and the goods are seriously backlogged."

"Third, there are relatively few wars in the four prefectures of Hebei, and the people's livelihood is far better than the Central Plains. Hebei is controlled by Yuan Shao, and the Zhen family relies on Yuan Shao."

"As far as I know, the little daughter of the Zhen family has already made an engagement with Yuan Shao's second son Yuan Xi. The two families agreed to get married after the winter, and then our goods will be even more unlikely to enter Hebei."

"Now, except for Jing and Yangzhou, Xuzhou has a little purchasing power. The people in Yan and Yu are all problems with eating, let alone buying cloth and other things."

Mi Zhu said a lot in one breath, these are all things that he had headaches.

His Mi family has been doing business for generations, with nearly 10,000 servants, thousands of customers, and a huge fortune of 100 million yuan. He originally wanted to be an official, but after several conversations with Zhang Xiu, he went to business again.

Because Zhang Xiu told him that the top wealthy businessmen in Jingzhou in the future will definitely not be merchants without status. However, the current situation makes him a little restrained.

"Haha, Zizhong doesn't need to worry too much."

"First, since the price of goods soars, then you go to make money from the national crisis. Isn't the Central Plains short of food? Then you go to sell grain, but you only need gold, so you can make a lot of money."

"Secondly, Yizhou has the reputation of the country of Tianfu. Whether it is the people or the aristocratic family, it naturally cannot give up easily."

"Zi Zhongke sent someone to secretly communicate with Zhang Song. This person has a little status in Yizhou, and this person is greedy for money. As long as he gives him some of the benefits, this is not a problem."

"Third, the Zhen family in Hebei. This is a bit tricky. As far as I know, the Zhen family is also a family of merchants, with industries spread across various prefectures and counties in Hebei. It is understandable that you will resist your entry into Hebei."

"I'll find a way to do this." Zhang Xiu pondered.

He naturally knew the engagement between Zhen Mi and Yuan Xi. Although the historical books did not clearly record the time, it was logical that this year was next year, but it was unexpected that it was the beginning of winter.

As for the God of Luo, he has been accused of great reputation for a long time. Although he has not seen his appearance, he can tell how beautiful this woman is just from Cao Pi entering Ye and making her the queen.

You know, this woman was a broken flower and a broken willow at that time, and her status was not very noble. She was actually made the queen. It was obviously Cao Pi who was so arrogant.

Zhang Xiu thought for a moment, took this matter to heart, and then said: "Zi Zhong, there are bitter and cold places in Youbei, and there is a shortage of clothes and food."

"And after many improvements, my Jing and Yanghai ships can sail along the near sea, and can carry cloth, Hufu, Shiyan and other places to Youbei, and exchange materials with Gongsundu, Wuhuan, and even Xianbei in Liaodong."

"For example, the ore in Youbei, the fur of animals, etc., opening up the route of navigation and business will be of great benefit to our Jingzhou."

Listening to Zhang Xiu's words, Mi Zhu focused on it, "The lord's words are reasonable, and it should be arranged and implemented as soon as possible."

"Yeah, let's go down first!"

Zhang Xiu looked at Mi Zhu very seriously. In the future, the prosperity of Jingzhou will be entirely dependent on Mi Zhu.

"No!" Mi Zhu quickly left.

As Mi Zhu left, Zhang Xiu talked to everyone for a few more words and strolled out of the house.

Walking on the cold stone path and feeling the gradually cold night, Zhang Xiu moved his muscles and bones, a little tired, and at the same time he was thinking about how to get into Hebei.

After all, you can only make money by entering Hebei.

"Ahem, lord, the place where Gan lives is in front of you, why not..." Hu Cheer followed quietly, scratching his head and pursing his lips.

"Gan?" Zhang Xiu couldn't help but look down on the moonlight. Next to the carriage, the white and jade-like figure of Mrs. Gan was so attractive.

Thinking of this, Zhang Xiu couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

He almost forgot whether he didn't mention Gan's family. He really wanted to have two small tasks that he hadn't completed, the Queen and the Imperial Concubine missions, and the rewards of these two tasks were good.

Of course, the queen and the queen are also very good.

And the task has requirements, which is very annoying.

After pondering for a moment, Zhang Xiu still spoke: "Hu'er, follow me to the palace. I have some things to meet the saint."

Hu Cheer seemed to have not heard what Zhang Xiu said, and looked at his boss with great admiration. Tsk, his boss is awesome and he is going to the palace tonight.

I guess I won't be back tonight!

Just ask who else?

But in his opinion, the emperor's little brat has not yet been crowned and is not worthy of having a beauty like Fu Shou.

"Ahem, boss, do you need to take care of the guy?" Hu Cheer stared at his big Kazilan's eyes and said with great hope.

"Uh!" Zhang Xiu glanced at Hu Cheer speechlessly.

"Hehe, I understand, I'll make arrangements now." Hu Cheer scratched his head, showed a clear expression, and at the same time gave a few instructions to the guard behind him.

Zhang Xiu: "???"

Arrange? What to arrange?
