Start by scolding the empress

Chapter 5 Refining the Elixir
How can this be good?

Cold sweat was visible to the naked eye covering Xu Wanjun's forehead.

Seeing that Xu Wanjun didn't dare to speak, he looked a bit taboo.

The empress frowned and scolded with a displeased expression.

"Say it! My widow forgives your innocence!!"

"Yes Yes."

Xu Wanjun trembled all over, as if he wanted to cry.

I saw him take a deep breath, and the tone of his speech began to tremble.

"..."

Following Xu Wanjun's talk, the empress's delicate hands gradually tightened.

And there is a bit of gnashing of teeth on the face.

boom!
The sound of patting on the table made Xu Wanjun tremble again.

"Fun Lord? I made a mistake here? Good! Why didn't you kill this dog thief in the early court?!"

Thinking of this, the Empress felt deep regret in her heart.

Why did he let him go by accident?
But if Chen Yi is killed now, won't it appear that she is making changes day and night and going back on what she says?
This was really depressing and made her want to vomit blood!
Feeling the empress's surprising anger, Xu Wanjun secretly sighed for Chen Yi.

high possibility.

Regardless of whether Chen Yi's countermeasures worked or not, he probably wouldn't be able to survive afterwards!
a time.

In the entire pavilion, except for the slight exhalation of the empress, neither Xu Wanjun nor the guards around her dared to make a sound!
Afterwards, the empress slowly regained her composure, and she couldn't help complaining in her heart.

Could it be that in the eyes of these courtiers, they just don't believe me? !
You must know that I am the emperor! !

Although it has not dealt with many major national affairs in recent years.

But it's not enough to become a foolish king!

In the Wuzhi Dynasty, there was no one before or after, and I am not here to let the country pass on for thousands of years?
How come no one understands? !
In order not to let the country change dynasties after hundreds of years.

So I must live forever!
It can be imagined that the empress' eyes darkened again here.

The treasury has run out of money!
Apart from collecting household taxes from the people, the entire country has no other sources of income.

Glancing at the cautious Xu Wanjun, the empress said something general.

"Show me the countermeasure that the dog thief gave you, if it doesn't work..."

She will kill Chen Yi directly with this!
Don't mention anything to make up for it!

Hearing that the empress directly asked him to come up with the method Chen Yi gave, Xu Wanjun resisted a little in his heart.

It shows that subconsciously, he also feels that the empress is a bit unreliable.

"Um?!"

Seeing his hesitation, the empress couldn't help frowning.

The dog thief said he couldn't show it to me, how dare you not? !

"Yes Yes Yes……"

Xu Wanjun felt pain in his heart at this moment.

But I had no choice but to take out the paper full of small characters that Chen Yi had given me and hand it to the empress.

"Please take a look, Your Majesty."

"Humph!"

Looking at it with disgust, Xu Wanjun felt like crying.

He took the folded rough paper and shook it open.

When the sharp and thin golden handwriting was written on the paper, the empress couldn't help but shine!
Nice words!
It seems to be a font that I have never seen before?

After paying a little attention to the thin golden body, the empress looked at the overall content.

"There are ten stones in the wealth of the empire! There are two for the common people, and eight for the gentry!!"

Just saw the first sentence!

The empress's expression, which was not very concerned at first, suddenly became dignified.

Because what Chen Yi wrote is the truth!
But what is the direct connection between this and solving disaster relief?
Count on those aristocratic families to save the people of Longxi?
"Establish imperial banks in various counties, counties and state capitals, and take them under the name of the Ministry of Households..."

"The food of the Nashi tribe is for all the people in the world!!"

Whoa!
After watching the end, the empress stood up directly with some indescribable emotions!

"Food for the Nashi clan, food for the Nashi clan..."

His eyes were blurred, and he kept muttering this sentence in his mouth.

No wonder she is like this!
After all, the issue of the gentry was a long-standing headache in the hearts of the late emperor and her!
In this countermeasure, Chen Yi explained in detail the operating principle of the Imperial Bank.

In addition to the tens of thousands of mu of land, the gentry accumulated wealth by relying on countless chambers of commerce and shops.

What the bank needs to do is to establish credit and issue paper currency certificates that are easy to carry.

Originally, I went to purchase goods thousands of miles away, and brought heavy gold and silver with me.

After having a bank and depositing silver, you can purchase goods with only a palm-sized voucher.

Can imagine!

At that time, there will definitely be countless rich people depositing gold and silver in the bank!
Then isn't there money?
Isn't the silver deposited in the bank the country's?
Once this law is implemented!
Not only are the disasters in Longxi and the South nothing to worry about, but even the gentry, who are a headache for the ruler, have directly become the leeks of the country in disguise! !

"I didn't expect this person to have some skills."

Feeling a little happy in her heart, the Empress subconsciously stopped calling Chen Yi a dog thief.

Xu Wanjun was watching her words and expressions, and was a little curious when he saw her like this.

The main reason is that the altitude determines the pattern of thinking, and this method has always been in the fog for him.

Xu Wanjun didn't know whether it was useful or not.

Then he asked the empress cautiously.

"Your Majesty, Chen...is Master Chen's countermeasure useful?"

After taking a sip of the fragrant tea, the empress is now in a relaxed mood, after all, in her opinion, the nobles are no longer enough to cause headaches!

After hearing Xu Wanjun's question, she nodded affirmatively.

"This method works!"

It was indeed as Chen Yi said!
Within a month, the country will have money!

Thinking of this, she also lost her composure, and said to Xu Wanjun.

"You take this note to the cabinet ministers and let them discuss and implement it, they will understand!"

really useful? !
When the rough paper returned to his hands, Xu Wanjun's hands trembled slightly.

Saved!
The people of Longxi are saved! !
Feeling it for a while, Xu Wanjun regained his vigor and paid homage to the empress.

"My lord, on behalf of the millions of people in Longxi, thank you Your Majesty!!"

With the empress' approval, Xu Wanjun was about to leave.

A court lady came to the pavilion.

"His Majesty!"

The moment she saw this female officer, the empress' expression changed.

Why did the people from the Alchemy Pavilion come here?

"Your Majesty! The immortal master said that refining the elixir is still short of 50 taels of silver to buy medicinal materials..."
