"Have you seen the new coins?"

At this time, a Taoist at a table in the corner asked out of curiosity.

When the second brother saw it, he didn't dare to neglect it and said with a smile: "Master Dao is very aware of everything. I have indeed seen the new coins. Not only have I seen them, but I also have a few in my pocket."

Everyone was surprised and said: "Brother, take it out and take a look, so that we can have an idea."

The younger brother chuckled, took out a few bright and cute new coins from his waist, waved them in front of everyone, and quickly took them back again, with a cautious look that made people laugh.

Everyone had seen the new coins, but they didn't see enough. They said, "The second brother is so stingy. How can just one look be enough? Look again, look again."

The Taoist smiled and said: "This new coin is just as the second brother said, it is cute and tight. Little second brother, I am coming from afar and I am jealous of you. How about this? How about I exchange the silver with you here?"

The younger brother was startled and said: "Master Dao is joking. New coins are being exchanged up there, and it won't last for more than a month. If Master Dao wants new coins, they can be exchanged in Zhuxian Town ahead. I only have a few big boys here." It’s just a child, and it only costs a few dozen pennies in total.”

The Taoist smiled and said: "It doesn't hurt to take a look at the left and right first."

After saying that, he took out some broken silver and handed it to the waiter. The waiter said happily: "The Taoist shows mercy, I'm not polite."

The Taoist has a lot of broken silver in his hands, but at least he has one or two more. Take it to Zhuxian Town to exchange it, and you can exchange it for more than 100 yuan.

The exchange rate between new coins and old coins is rated at one hundred coins and one tael of silver. And nowadays, shopping with new currency on the market is often more cost-effective than using silver. He is making a lot of money here.

The Taoist took a handful of new coins from the child's hand, weighed them, looked at them carefully, and his eyes narrowed slightly. Then he quietly put the new coins into his cuffs and said with a smile: "Eat and drink enough, I will say goodbye."

Then left the tavern.

This man left the tavern, took long strides, walked like the wind, seemed to shrink into an inch, and was gone in the blink of an eye.

"Gold is not gold, and silver is not silver. It is not only tough, but also a little mysterious. This new coin..." The Taoist muttered in his heart.

As he walked, he rubbed a new coin, feeling the indelible patterns on it, and his eyes were extremely deep.

"It's just the right time to come back. Let's go see the dragon and see what it looks like..."

...

"Sending troops in April is not as cold as winter."

Ying Yi was playing chess with others.

He was not good at chess, but under the influence of Zheng Yunzhi during this period, he also developed some interest and learned a few moves. If you have time, you can have a chat with Zheng Yunzhi or have fun with Sun Xiucai. Not to mention, the two concubines in the inner courtyard are both masters.

Chen Yuanyuan and Li Xiangjun were born as oirans. They are not currently on the mainstream stage, but they are good at playing chess, calligraphy and painting. When it comes to playing chess, Ying Yi can't play any of them.

There is no need to worry about your identity in the boudoir. When you are annoyed, you just hold down a shot and enjoy yourself.

Now Ying Yi is playing chess with Yan Ermei.

Yan Ermei arrived in Kaifeng earlier. After meeting Ying Yi, he was moved by his words and deeds and stayed here. First, he applied for official duties, and was transferred to Ying Yi a few days ago.

However, Ying Yi had said at the beginning that in the future, the promotion of officials would not be based on the prefecture and Mu Yamen, but would be in his own hands.

All the achievements of Gein officials are clearly visible on the humanitarian list. For example, in the Ming Dynasty, if merit was determined, it would require inspection from the capital and a huge official department to manage it. But that’s not necessary here in Ying Yi.

All you need is a team of HR secretaries.

Yan Ermei is currently engaged in this team.

Therefore, he always follows Ying Yi.

Yan Ermei is naturally talented. After becoming an official earlier, he put forward many important suggestions and enriched many structures and decrees of the Zhou Mu Yamen. He also had strong execution ability and was highly appreciated by Zheng Yunzhi. If he hadn't been transferred to Ying Yi's side, he would have been promoted to the next division of the Zhoumu Yamen soon.

After all, among the five departments under the Zhoumu Yamen, Zheng Yunzhi currently holds the concurrent posts of the Household Department and the Agriculture Department, so the positions are vacant.

"There have always been wars between the north and the south, mostly in winter. What's the reason?" Yan Ermei said with a smile: "Because the river freezes in the cold winter, there are no natural barriers, so you can cross the river without boats. In April, the spring water is so powerful that boats are needed to cross the river. "

Ying Yi laughed, nodded and said, "That's right. But shipbuilding is mostly done in the south of the Yangtze River."

Yan Ermei smiled and said: "Although Henan is south of the Yangtze River, it is not difficult to collect ships of all sizes."

"It's not difficult to search for ships, but Hou Xun's town in Hebei has more than 70,000 troops, which is not a small number." Ying Yi smiled slightly and dropped one word.

Yan Ermei said: "My lord, this is a student taking the exam. Although Hou Xun has more than 70,000 soldiers and horses, they are all a mob and cannot wait for the elegant hall. How can he compare with the elite soldiers and generals under my lord's command? What's more, Hou Xun is afraid that he is in the army at this time." Xiaoyao. He was blocked by a natural chasm. If he were to attack him at this time, he would not be able to react in time. With the Lord's army, only three to five thousand men could cross the river to defend the river bank. I understand that Hou Xun would be helpless. Then the army rushed past. , Hou Xun’s defeat happened overnight.”

Ying Yi laughed loudly when he heard this: "Mr. Yan is the one who knows me."

He said: "That's right. Although I am enthusiastic about recruiting troops, Hou Xun is afraid that he will not expect that I will send troops in April. The Ming court's army is loose, so it will definitely not be my opponent."

Yan Ermei said respectfully: "My lord's spirit is hard to match."

But he said: "Although it is easy to march into Hebei, the rear has to be defended. If the Lord wants to destroy the Ming Dynasty, he must be careful to guard against the Qinwang of the Ming army in various places, especially Huainan and Jiangnan. Even Guanzhong and Huguang must pay some attention. .”

Ying Yi put down the chess pieces: "I would like to hear the details."

Yan Ermei said: "Although the one in the capital has long been unable to control the south of the Yangtze River, he has taken over the orthodoxy after all. Although Huainan Shigong is pedantic, he cannot just watch his lord move north. He oversees the canal, which connects the north and the south. If he wants to send troops to rescue him, it will be extremely difficult for him to do so. It's convenient. Let's talk about Huguang and Guanzhong - Huguang's soldiers have been disabled long ago, so there's nothing to worry about. Guanzhong is ruined, so there's nothing to worry about. But there are powerful people in Sichuan."

Ying Yi couldn't help but smile and said: "Mr. Yan's words make sense. The canal connects the north and the south, which is extremely important. And the old general Qin Liangyu of Sichuan is also respected by me. It is impossible to say that at this time, he had received the imperial decree from Emperor Chongzhen and led the white-armed soldiers out of Sichuan. It's coming. It may come from Huguang or Guanzhong, so we must be on guard against it."

"My lord is wise." Yan Ermei felt extremely happy.

Back then, under Shi Kefa, no matter how good his idea was, he couldn't put it into practice. Now under Ying Yi, he is like a fish in water. How can he be so free? Although Ying Yi is a martial artist, he respects the people around him very much and never neglects him. If you have good suggestions, they are often adopted. How can you not be happy?

Ying Yi's power has only just begun, but both he and his subordinates have the confidence to destroy Ming. As soon as they reach the south of Henan, they advance northward to destroy the Ming Dynasty, and they also want to prevent the Tatars from outside the pass. It cannot be said that they are not crazy. But you are confident, so why be afraid?

However, strategically, we should despise the enemy, but tactically, we should pay attention to it. Henan is a land of four wars. If a war breaks out, we must take precautions.

"That's why I have the same idea." Ying Yi said with a smile on his face: "Speaking of it, if a school captain is left to guard Henan, all the soldiers will be afraid and unwilling. It is better to attack instead of defend."
