All kinds of copper coins were placed on the table. Some were yellow and bright, some were shining with black, some were clear in handwriting, and some were blurred on it. These copper plates were not only from Yue, but also from Qin, Qi, and Chu. Qin Feng even pulled out a few Tongbaos from the Tang Empire that had been destroyed for more than a hundred years.

Huo Guang smiled and pointed at the copper coins: "Look at these, they are from Chu. The people of Chu are rich. The copper content in this money is very high, and the copper coins are also extremely beautiful. In fact, this kind of copper coins are not widely circulated in our North Vietnam."

"Why is this beautiful money not widely circulated?" Qin Feng said strangely.

"Because there is so much copper!" Huo Guang pointed out the bright yellow copper coins: "This kind of copper coins will be taken away by some people who are interested, and then smelted copper from it to make various bronze ware. The profits are much greater than those of these copper plates. Your Majesty, we just used five cents of silver and only exchanged for 400-cent copper coins. You didn't care?"

Qin Feng suddenly came over, "Yes, I heard Su Kairong say that one tael of silver is worth a thousand quotas."

"It's just an official price, but it's really in the folk. One or two taels can be exchanged for up to 800 citations." Huo Guang said.

"Money is valuable and silver is cheap!" Qin Feng took a breath.

Huo Guang nodded and reached out to pull out copper coins: "These are from Qin. The Qin people made everything, of course they also hold copper. Look at the money, the copper content is too low, so the handwriting is blurred. It won't take long to use a coin and it's almost useless. The North Vietnamese are a little better than the Qin countries, but they are not much better. However, the Yue country does not lack copper, which is Wu Jian's problem. Look at this pile, who is the most common one? It's from Qi countries. Their copper-lead ratio is relatively appropriate, so it is more circulated on the market."

Qin Feng's face was a little gloomy. He swept all the copper coins together, put them in his arms, and stood up: "Let's go, where will we go to Su Kairong?"

Huo Guang looked at Qin Feng in confusion. He didn't quite understand why Qin Feng suddenly looked a little unhappy. He glanced at the empty table, which seemed to have something to do with these copper coins. But he didn't understand what it was for.

The mansion of Su Kairong, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, was in Yuejing. It was also the top luxury house. He had been the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue for decades and was naturally worthy of wealth. When the Taiping Army entered the city and took North Vietnam to replace it, the Minister of Revenue was frightened for many days, especially after Zhang Ning was slapped to death by Weizhuang on the top of the city, he felt that the old man Yan Luo had been waving the small flag on his head.

But the result was greatly beyond his expectations. He was still sitting on the position of Minister of Revenue, and from now on, His Majesty the Emperor also valued him very much.

Picking it with peaches and repaying it with courtesy, Su Kairong certainly understood that the so-called favor also changed with the times. The Taiping Army had just entered the city and was first established in the Ming Dynasty. It was used to be considered a Taiping Army that was a bandit, and there were many talents, especially professionals like himself who were in charge of the national finance. I am afraid that there was not one of the Taiping Army. But now it does not mean that there will be no one in the future. If you want to sit firmly in this position, you must of course express your attitude.

The first thing is to do is to do things well. After spending several months with Qin Feng, he sat in this seat and naturally had a lot of contact with Qin Feng, which is also worth understanding of the character of Qin Feng, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty. That is, no matter what you used to be, he thinks it is your ability to do things and your attitude to do things.

Regardless of the white cat, the one who catches the mouse is a good cat. Even if I am a good cat now, even if my butt is a little unclean. However, His Majesty the Emperor doesn't seem to care about his past at all.

Do the Ministry of Revenue well and be careful not to get involved in any other matters. When it comes to other major affairs of the court, it only talks about the Ministry of Revenue, and try to explain it from the business.

I spared no effort to do what my superiors had assigned. For example, the Ministry of Personnel's administration reform, among the major departments, the Ministry of Revenue is the most resolute in the implementation. Su Kairong has worked in the Ministry of Revenue for so many years, and the big cats and kittens in the Ministry of Revenue have a heart of a book. Those who do things are doing things, those who are scattered, and they are clear about them. They are now dismissed.

This move has boosted the spirit of other officials of the Ministry of Revenue, and Su Kairong's approval rating is even higher, which is something he did not expect.

In addition to these business things, the most important thing is of course to show His Majesty the Emperor his absolute support for the Ming Empire. When His Majesty allocated tens of millions of taels of silver from the inner treasury to the treasury, he thought about it for several days, gritted his teeth, and submitted a memorial, claiming that he was willing to donate some of the family property to the country. Among them, the silver was 500,000 taels alone, and the others were worth a lot of land. The Su family's savings over the past few years were suddenly gone by most of his family property. Su Kairong ignored the opposition of his family members at all, and his two sons were even taught a lesson by his complaints. His wife was also denounced by him as long hair and short knowledge.

When he finished all this, he exchanged for a plaque given by the Queen.

"Official model!"

Now this beautifully mounted plaque is hung in the middle hall. Although it was given by the Empress, Su Kairong certainly understood that this was actually what His Majesty the Emperor. Our Emperor's Majesty is a little unsatisfied with the word "His Majesty". He is used to holding a knife handle, but it is a bit unsatisfied when he picks up the pen. The Empress is a golden branch and jade leaf, the princess is the princess. Although she is a woman, her hand is heroic. I am afraid that many people in the world will feel ashamed of themselves. Through the capital, including the officials of the Taiping Army, the only one who received the word "His Majesty" was given by himself.

"It's just a million taels of silver, which has brought peace to the Su family for at least decades. It's worth it!" Standing under this plaque, Su Kairong was extremely satisfied.

I have been through two emperors, but now I am three. I have been the Minister of Revenue for decades and have been able to fail. In addition to my excellent business, of course, there is also the principle of how to be an official.

If the money is gone, you can earn it again. If your life is gone, what else can you do?

"Master, two people came outside the door and asked to see you. The villain asked them to wait at the door." A family member appeared at the door of the lobby and reported in a low voice.

Su Kairong, who was admiring the font of the Queen, said aloud and asked casually: "Did you say what his name is?"

"I said that older people say that his name is Huo Guang, younger people don't have a name. But..."

When Su Kairong heard the name Huo Guang, he was shocked. This was the dignified Minister of War. Why did he come to his house with a follower? This is his confidant and he must not be neglected.

He turned around and walked out, "You blind slave, actually asked Mr. Huo to wait outside the door, and look back at how I dealt with you. But what?"

"But it looks like a young follower." When he heard that he was the Minister of War, the disciple was shocked and his voice changed a little.

"You said that Mr. Huo looked like a follower?" Su Kairong's body suddenly nailed to the ground like a nail, staring at the door.

"Yes, it's like a follower." Menzi said tremblingly.

Su Kairong's mind suddenly became blank. With a blink of an eye, cold sweat appeared on his head, and the person immediately woke up. He turned around, and the wind blew under his feet, and he ran out. The sixty-year-old man's legs and feet at this moment made the young and strong disciple feel inferior.

The door was not opened, but just looked at the side door. The two of them were standing in the porch inside the side door. When they saw the familiar figure, Su Kairong was almost sweating profusely and rushed into the porch. His legs were weak and he was about to kneel down.

Qin Feng grabbed Su Kairong and smiled and said, "I came in contemporaneously. There are still people watching here outside. Close the door, let's go in and talk."

"Close the door, close the door!" Su Kairong said repeatedly to the scared doormen in the porch.

The door closed with a loud bang, and then the doors were kneeling all over the ground.

"Your Majesty, please!" Su Kairong's back was as if he was a shrimp.

Qin Feng nodded and walked inward with his hands on his back. He was very casual in front of Huo Guang and others, but in front of officials like Su Kairong, his emperor's majesty was fully revealed.

"Your Majesty, let your family come to worship Your Majesty." Immediately following Qin Feng, Su Kairong whispered: "It is their blessing to be able to see Your Majesty's beauty."

"No need, it's a business for me to find you, there's no need to alarm my family." Qin Feng frowned, "Find a quieter place."

"Yes, Your Majesty." Su Kairong said quickly.

After sitting in the desk that originally belonged to Su Kairong, Qin Feng took out the copper coins from his arms and placed them one by one in front of Su Kairong. After all, he was the Minister of Revenue for decades, and Su Kairong immediately understood what Qin Feng meant.

"Your Majesty, what are you trying to talk about Qian Zheng?" he whispered.

Qin Feng nodded: "Su Qing, you are the old Ministry of Revenue. What does this mean? I think you know very well." Qin Feng gently knocked on the table and said.

"Old Su, the silver exchange money of your Ministry of Revenue is one tael of silver exchange money for a thousand cents, but on the market, one cent is for eight hundred cents." Huo Guang savored the tea and looked at Su Kairong and said.

Su Kairong raised his head, "This is pretty good. There are one tael of silver and seven hundred cigars and six hundred cigars."

"I see, among the money that is common in North Vietnam, there are not many people in Qin, and there are not many people in Chu, but Qi is the most." Qin Feng looked at Su Kairong and said.

"Your Majesty, the Chu State's coins are good, and most of them are taken away and cast bronzes, or they are simply collected. The quality of the coins of Qin and Qianyue is too poor, and after a period of use, they will be broken. The proportion of coins and copper coins in Qi State is appropriate and the casting is exquisite, so the circulation will naturally be large." Su Kairong said in a low voice.

Qin Feng's face was a little gloomy.

"There are big articles here." He stared at Su Kairong, "You are the old Ministry of Revenue, don't you not understand, right?"
