My life skills in Daming Liver

Chapter 194 The Great Coin Project

Although Eunuch Tao is a eunuch, he is greedy for money and loves power, but who can refuse the temptation to leave his name in history?

Even eunuchs want to leave a good name in history.

Eunuch Tao looked at Su Ze. If other scholars persuaded him to do something good to leave his name in history, Eunuch Tao would definitely not pay attention. Eunuch Tao, who had climbed up from the fierce struggle in the palace, did not believe those cunning people. of scholars.

But Su Ze is different. He is different from those scholars who are always taught by sages. He has never talked to Eunuch Tao about the knowledge of Zheye, but actually came up with solutions.

The three immortal coins proposed by Su Ze can really be minted, and it has also been approved by the emperor.

Eunuch Tao asked, "Mr. Su taught me."

Su Ze said: "Don't dare to teach, Su is just suggesting."

"Since ancient times, there have been two ways to promote new money. One is what my father-in-law said. The government forcibly exchanged the old money with the new money. The disadvantage of this is that the people are not happy with the new money. It is also rejected, and it will also bear the burden of infamy."

"If the quality of the new money is not good, the value of the new money will also depreciate very quickly."

Eunuch Tao nodded.

During this period of time, he also studied the money law carefully, and understood that what Su Ze said had already happened, which was why Daming had dredged up the money law many times, but the results were not satisfactory.

Su Ze added: "As for the second method, that is to spend the money and flow into the market naturally."

"Flow out?"

Su Ze nodded and said, "Yes! Spend money!"

"The advantage of directly spending the new money in the hands of the government is that the money will be spent naturally, and the people will not object to it. The people will take the money they spent and use it again, and the new money will circulate."

Eunuch Tao hurriedly asked, "How do you spend it?"

Su Ze smiled and said: "There are many ways to spend money. Repairing water conservancy, building ponds and dams, opening up wasteland, and repairing roads are all ways to spend money. If the father-in-law wants to spend money, he only needs to send money to the hired men. gone."

Eunuch Tao's eyes lit up, and he finally understood what Su Ze's name left in history meant.

If what Su Ze said is really the same, then his Eunuch Tao's name will remain forever in the history of Fujian.

If a few things are done, then the Fujianese will enshrine his father-in-law Tao.

Ordinary people are sometimes easily instigated, but they are not stupid.

If he really does things for the people, then the people will remember him.

The common people are definitely not willing to enlist civil servants to let them build projects, but if the engineering government gives money, the common people will naturally be willing, and if the money given is enough, the common people will definitely fight to do it.

What Su Ze said was very good, but Eunuch Tao thought about it, and said bitterly: "But the money is all spent, the name is left in history, and the life of the miscellaneous family is gone."

Eunuch Tao was not overwhelmed by what Su Ze said. He came to Fujian to clear up the money law, and more importantly, to make money for the emperor.

If he spends all the newly minted money, what else can he give to the emperor?

Su Ze said: "Eunuch Tao, don't be impatient, I haven't said the next step yet."

"Next step?"

Su Ze nodded and said: "Nowadays, the gentry and landlords in Fujian have hoarded a lot of Song money in their hands. Surely it is clear what kind of father-in-law they are going to be?"

Eunuch Tao nodded and scolded: "These stinky scholars! You usually talk about benevolence, righteousness and morality so fiercely, and now you want to take advantage of the imperial court to mint new coins to make a fortune! The infamy is all borne by miscellaneous families! It's so disgusting!"

Su Ze said: "These wealthy gentry exchanged all the silver in their hands for Song money, but do they have the ability to privately mint the three immortal coins?"

Eunuch Tao immediately shook his head, whether it is brass alloy or hydraulic embossing machine, these are impossible for these families to learn, and they have no ability to imitate new coins.

Su Ze said with a smile: "In this case, father-in-law let them hold all the Song money in their hands, and when they can't stand it anymore, they will use the new money of 'Dang 50' to exchange for the Song money in their hands."

Although Eunuch Tao didn't understand the principles of economics, he still understood Su Zejiang's approach.

The money was sent to the common people, and if the new money could be recognized by the common people, it would quickly circulate in Fujian. At this time, those rich gentry who hoarded a large amount of old money would panic.

The higher the new money is recognized by the market, the more difficult it is to circulate the old money. At that time, some rumors will be released as before, and these big families will definitely rush to sell the old money in their hands.

At that time, Eunuch Tao will exchange the old money from these big families with the big money of "Dang 50", and the recovered copper can be used to cast new money, and at the same time, he can make a fortune for the emperor!

Thinking of this, Eunuch Tao immediately said to Su Ze: "Sir, what a great idea!"

"Just this project?"

Su Ze said: "Eunuch, don't worry, Su will study this water conservancy map again and dredge the water system in Fujian, and there will be a big project named by Eunuch!"

Eunuch Tao also felt very excited when he thought that he would leave a project named after himself in Fujian like those ancient sages.

Eunuch Tao rolled his eyes again and asked, "But such a big project, can miscellaneous people push it?"

Su Ze sighed. Sure enough, no one who can climb to a high position is an idiot. This Eunuch Tao looks irritable, but in fact he is not stupid at all, and he is not so easy to fool.

Su Ze said: "Don't worry, father-in-law, from all over Fujian, who can refuse father-in-law to take money to let them repair the project?"

Eunuch Tao immediately understood that for local officials, building water conservancy and roads is also an achievement. They were unwilling to do it before because the court had no money.

If the imperial court is willing to spend money, who would not want to repair the project properly during his tenure.

Not to mention the oil and water that can be greedy for ink, but the repair project is a political achievement that is delivered to the mouth.

As long as you have money, who can't build a project!

As long as it is repaired, it is a political achievement, and it can get a better evaluation in the test.

Eunuch Tao hurriedly said, "Mr. Su is so talented!"

After seeing Eunuch Tao off, Su Ze looked at the hydrographic map and thought about this big project that would spread coins all over Fujian.

There are many mountainous areas in Fujian, so the land resources are poor. The ancestors of the past dynasties also liked to cultivate fields by the river while reclaiming the mountains.

This is also a very normal thing. The land by the river is fertile, and the water diversion cost for building water conservancy facilities is low. This is the best place to reclaim fertile land.

However, opening fields by the river has also caused the embankments in Fujian to be not strong enough, and once heavy rains occur, some embankments will burst.

Su Ze sneered. If he wanted to build water conservancy, he would naturally return the fields near the river. Those who can cultivate the most fertile land by the river are almost all powerful local households.

Since the water conservancy in Fujian is going to be built, it is natural to suffer from the gentry! The fields that occupied the river course were returned to farmland and turned into embankments.

If this matter was done by local officials, nine out of ten it would not be possible, but these gentry had offended Eunuch Tao, and Eunuch Tao came here on behalf of the palace, so this matter could be done instead.

Su Ze looked at the hydrological map, found out the weak points of the entire Fujian water conservancy system, and ordered several large-scale projects according to the administrative distribution of each prefecture and county.

The scale of these projects to strengthen the dam is huge, but if the government spends money to recruit people, the people will definitely support them.

Who in Fujian has never been harmed by floods? Everyone was very active when Changningwei built water conservancy projects.

Next is the seaside. Because Fujian is close to the sea, it often encounters tidal disasters.

Tidal disasters are when high tides occur at sea, and seawater flows back into the river mouth, polluting the land by the sea.

Tidal disasters are also very serious for the people along the coast. The land eroded by a tidal disaster will become salinized, and it will be impossible to grow crops normally for several years.

Coastal cities can build dikes to protect against tidal disasters, which is also a huge project.

After reading the newly drawn hydrological map and looking at the numerous projects on it, Su Ze knew that if these projects could be completed without compromise, Mr. Tao would definitely remain in the hearts of the people of Fujian forever, and the people would not even be able to build a shrine for him. strange.

However, Su Ze has no idea how many of these projects can be completed properly, and how many will be corrupted.

But he doesn't care, his purpose is not to extend the life of the Ming Dynasty, he wants to rebel!

On the one hand, this large-scale project is to accumulate experience for myself, and to see what kind of moths will happen when such a large-scale project is carried out in ancient times.

The project that Su Ze has been in charge of so far is Changningwei's Creek Construction Project, and Changningwei is all villagers, using people from Chenjia Village, and the project volume is not large.

But this time the Fujian "big coin" project will involve the whole territory of Fujian, and it will involve a large number of labor force population in Fujian. This is not something that can be built by just clicking your fingers and deducting money and materials in the game. Such a huge project is bound to have various problems.

On the other hand, Su Ze really hated these rich gentry and wanted to make them suffer.

The last thing is liver experience. Now Su Ze's water conservancy skill has reached Lv5. As long as the water conservancy skill is a project hosted and designed by Su Ze himself, he can gain experience as the project progresses.

This time, if all the projects in Fujian can be counted on his own head, I am afraid that the water conservancy skill will break through Lv10 in one fell swoop.

Thinking of this, Su Ze still spared precious time to design and select several major projects for Eunuch Tao while improving his skills in the imperial examination. Can only start work after it is over.

In the following days, the workshop in the mine pit was buzzing every day, and Eunuch Tao moved directly to the workshop to live in and personally supervise the minting of new coins.

The wealthy and powerful families in Fujian are also very impatient. They have a lot of Song money in their hands, but now they can't spend it at all.

After the rumors that the imperial court wanted to abolish Song money fermented, the value of Song money fell all the way, and now many places in Fujian have returned to the state of bartering.

This time, Eunuch Tao, who minted coins, guarded the workshop very closely. The craftsmen who participated in the coin minting lived and lived in the mine pit. What kind of new coins were minted has not been leaked until now.

In the blink of an eye, on July 10th, Su Ze finished writing the stereotyped essay in his hand, and a reminder came out of his mind:

[Complete the work, imperial examination skills +20, Lv10, 9/10000]

[Imperial examination skills breakthrough Lv10, please choose passive skills and assign free attribute points. 】

Immediately afterwards, three cards, two purple and one blue, appeared in front of Su Ze.

Purple Passive! Still two!

Su Ze quickly flipped through the cards, only to see the passive skills of these three cards are:

[Blue Passive - Read the book a hundred times to see its meaning: When reading, increase the imperial examination skill experience by 15%. 】

[Purple Passive - On-the-spot master: When taking the imperial examination, temporarily gain +5 intelligence and +2 imperial skill. 】

[Purple Passive—Win the Imperial Examination: In the imperial examination, there is a 10% chance to write an article that the chief examiner will appreciate, and the imperial examination article will be attractive to the chief examiner +8]

These three passives made Su Ze entangled.

Although the first blue passive is only blue, its function is upright and simple.

Upgrading from Lv10 to Lv11 requires 10,000 experience points, and increasing the imperial examination experience can greatly increase the speed of the liver imperial examination skills, especially after breaking through Lv15, this skill is even more magical.

The second skill also appeared last time, and it can be said to be quite a practical skill.

During the imperial examination, the imperial examination skills +2, which means that Su Ze can be admitted as a Jinshi as long as his skills are upgraded to Lv13.

What really made Su Ze hesitate was the last skill.

This purple passive did not improve the imperial examination skills itself, but it allowed Su Ze to write articles that satisfied the chief examiner.

In the provincial examination and general examination, the chief examiner has great influence in deciding the final imperial examination.

And this skill is the charm skill for the examiner, +8 points of charm, that is to say, the article written by Su Ze can make the examiner feel good about it at a glance, and it is easier to be selected as the leader!

Su Ze's original goal was to improve his imperial examination skills to Lv10. After he was admitted to a Juren, he would stop taking the imperial examinations and concentrate on conspiracy in Fujian.

But now these three passive skills made Su Ze hesitate, should he continue the imperial examination?

Su Ze thought about it, and finally chose the second purple passive.

[Purple Passive - On-the-spot master: When taking the imperial examination, temporarily gain +5 intelligence and +2 imperial skill. 】

Anyway, as long as one's own imperial examination skill level is high, there is still hope to win the imperial examination.

Whether you want to continue to take the general examination or not, the imperial examination skill +2 can play a role in the rural examination.

After resolutely choosing passive, Su Ze added a little freedom attribute to intelligence.

Su Ze, male, 25 years old.

Intelligence: 14

Strength: 11

Dexterity: 6

Charm: 6

Remaining attribute points: 0

Finally, intelligence is no longer thirteen points. Su Ze picked up the "Selected Journal of Time and Literature" on the table again. With the blessing of fourteen points of intelligence, Su Ze became more aware of the subtleties of the article, and picked up the manuscript paper again. For a trigonometric function problem, the thinking of solving the problem is much clearer, and the speed of solving the problem is also much faster.

Su Ze took out the hydrological map of Fujian that he had copied from under the table, and after finally modifying the project plan, he stacked up the whole set of drawings. He was going to Fuzhou Prefecture to take the township examination tomorrow, and he planned to hand over this map to Eunuch Tao himself.

The students from the county school also packed their bags and headed to Fuzhou Prefecture together, preparing to take the 34th Jiajing provincial examination!
