Lu Duosun's abacus was very smart. He wanted to use some empty official positions to exchange for Ren Tianxing's loyalty, and successfully get the money away and fill the holes. But Ye Hua wanted to say that you were purely delusional. With Ren Tianxing's nature, let alone some false titles, even if you really take charge of the troops, he might not be willing to obey the orders.

"Mr. Lu, I would like to advise you not to make a mistake in making a big deal."

Lu Duoxun looked helpless, "Marty, you are planning for the country, but I am also planning for the country. And Lu just took over the three departments, so I must do better than Li Gu! I want everyone in the world to know that Lu Duoxun is capable!"

Ye Hua sneered: "If you have the ability to find a way, don't come and make a decision!"

Lu Duoxun took a look. Ye Hua's face was gloomy and terrifying. He was furious and had already reached the verge of an outbreak. Lu Duoxun knew it was still good and did not dare to continue quarrel.

"The lower official can take the position of the Three Secret Service, thanks to the Marquis' support. In short, the lower official will not cause trouble to the Marquis." After saying that, Lu Duoxun stood up and said goodbye.

When Lu Duosun left, Li Yu came over to ask, wanting to see if Ye Hua had any needs.

But he found that Ye Hua was holding his hands behind his back, looking worried and thinking about something.

Li Yu was very surprised. Logically speaking, Ye Hua didn't even take the Political Affairs Hall seriously, so there was no need to care about Lu Duosun! He just relied on Ye Hua to become a small role of the Three Sessions, and dared to compete with Ye Hua. He was simply impatient to live!

Just as Li Yu was thinking, Ye Hua suddenly chuckled, "When it comes to Lu Duosun, what can you think of?"

"Of course it's the destruction of the Buddha." Li Yu smiled silently and said, "Who can't know about this! Lu Duosun is indeed a bit outstanding."

Ye Hua said: "You are normal. Lu Duosun does everything and he is a sharp blade, a sharp blade held in His Majesty's hand. It is extraordinary that he can come to Chuzhou."

Li Yu lowered his head and thought for a while, it was true.

Logically speaking, Chai Rong handed over the deal with Wu Yue of the Southern Tang Dynasty to Ye Hua, so he shouldn't have sent anyone here, but Lu Duoxun was arranged again. Could it be that Chai Rong did not trust Ye Hua, or did the emperor have other plans? Or Lu Duoxun took his own initiative and raised the banner to be a tiger skin?

Li Yu couldn't guess the mystery for a moment.

He wanted to find the answer from Ye Hua's expression, but unfortunately, Ye Hua's joys and anger were not something he could guess at. Li Yu had to retreat.

Ye Hua was left in the study, and he seemed to be less worried. He even had the mood to make tea. After a cup of tea was finished, Ye Hua was ready to go to bed and rest.

This is the best thing to leave the capital. You don’t have to get up early to go to court, you can be lazy.

He poured the hot water left over the tea into a pine basin. The wooden basin that he had just used twice, and when he encountered hot water, he could emit a faint rosin. He put his feet in warm water, allowing the heat to rise from the soles of his feet to the top of his head, and a feeling of comfort came out of his bones.

Ye Hua moved his stiff neck and made a crackling sound, and his mind became clearer now.

Chai Rong sent Lu Duosun over, not because he did not trust him, but Chai Rong was a very intentional king. He obviously didn't believe in the pirate's ability and wanted to send someone to test the situation.

Besides, Dazhou is really short of money.

The Buddha had confiscated so much copper, and he thought that it would last for ten or eight years, but in fact, it would be in less than two years, and it would be in the bottom.

The people are afraid of being poor. They finally get the land and produce grain. After the autumn harvest, in addition to paying taxes and keeping them as food, they will be sold on the market, exchanged for copper and hidden at home.

Only by saving a certain amount of money can the people feel safe. Human nature cannot be changed.

The problem is that if the people put money at home, it is equivalent to letting copper out of circulation. If every household does this, there will be a shortage of money in the market!

Ludoson has mentioned it, and it seems that the situation is serious.

Only two million taels of silver cannot solve the problem. Sudden issuance of silver will only cause panic and may aggravate the shortage of money. If you are a small commoner, you are willing to exchange copper coins for silver. If you have money, it would be even better!

Of course, this principle cannot be told to Lu Duosun or Chai Rong. Even if they say it, they want to try it according to their own ideas and then talk about it after they hit Nanshu.

There are only two solutions for the present. One is to establish a banking system covering urban and rural areas as soon as possible, and implement deposit interest... In this way, the money in the hands of ordinary people can be absorbed.

Another thing is to find enough markets and get enough currency for the outside world.

Ye Hua estimated that in order to start the capitalization process of the Central Plains dynasty, it is impossible to control at least four-fifths of the world, possess countless wealth, a vast market, and sufficient labor without this premise.

Such a grand goal is really exciting!

But as a rich man said, it is impossible to become the rich man all at once! You must set a small goal first, such as earning 100 million!

Ye Hua also set a small goal for himself, and within three years, he would settle the Southeast countries and unify the Central Plains!

This goal is quite small. You must know that it has been available for twenty or thirty years in history. It was not until Zhao Er became the emperor that he basically succeeded! Obviously, Ye Hua was a little arrogant.

As it turns out, any success will happen.

Just as Ye Huajing was waiting for news from Ren Tianxing, Zhao Er suddenly arrived. He was very hurried and looked weird. When he saw Ye Hua, he said, "Master, there is good news and bad news now!"

Ye Hua raised his leg and kicked him.

"Don't make fun of me, is Ren Tianxing winning?"

"I won! Not only did I win, but I also defeated the Wu Yue Navy!"

"How do you say it?" Ye Hua asked curiously.

Zhao Er told Ye Hua that Ren Tianxing sent twenty ships to intercept Wu Yue's silver transport ship... And just behind the silver transport ship, there was a huge fleet of as many as one hundred warships, all of which were elite soldiers, with sharp blades, strong bows and hard crossbows, and wanted a mantis to stalk the cicada.

Not only that, a navy commander also set out from Jinling, and the ship was twice as big as that of Wu Yue.

Both countries spent a lot of money and vowed to destroy this group of arrogant water thieves.

The battle first broke out directly in Wu Yue and Ren Tianxing. At this time, the naval battle had not yet developed long-range attack methods. The most powerful thing was to shoot the crossbows, and then get close to it and fight on the side. Therefore, it makes sense to say that water battles are mainly bows and arrows in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms.

The two sides shot fiercely. Wu Yue relied on the large number of people and excellent crossbows to deal with the excellent bows and crossbows, and then they controlled the ship and rushed up. The two sides fought each other in close combat and killed to the death.

The pirates under Ren Tianxing are really fierce, all of them are outlaws. Even if the number of people is at an absolute disadvantage, they will never retreat.

But Wu Yue came prepared and there were many ships. He gradually surrounded Ren Tianxing's subordinates. As the victory was about to come, Wu Yue did not notice that their fleet had lost its formation.

At this time, north of the Yangtze River Estuary, Ren Tianxing led thirty of the most elite warships, equipped with bed crossbows, bypassed the Dongshazhou, and suddenly appeared behind the Wuyue Navy.

You can stalk the cicadas, and I am the real oriole behind!

"put!"

Five hundred steps away, the bed crossbow aimed directly, and the pot filled with explosives and tinder oil hit the deck. In an instant, the flames flew and burned.

The sailors of Wu and Yue were all frightened.

Ren Tianxing was proud and quickly ordered to continue the attack.

This is true for all new weapons. The first time you use them, you will often achieve unexpected results. After using them many times, the effect will decrease.

This is the first time that the combination of bed crossbow and gunpowder has appeared on the naval battlefield.

Wu Yue was in trouble. They were patrolling the twenty ships, but they stuck out their butts. Ren Tianxing could be polite and beat him hard!

Some ships caught fire on their decks, some sails were burned, and many soldiers, with fire on their bodies, jumped into the cold river in a hurry.

Ren Tianxing laughed loudly when he saw it. There were some special things on his boat, which were iron flowering bullets, which were even more lethal.

Fired through the crossbow of the bed, hit the side of the ship, and exploded into a big hole. When the river water poured in, the ship quickly sank. That was so cool!

Ren Tianxing relied on the crossbow to perform a perfect counterattack. He sank more than fifty ships of Wu Yue, killing and injuring more than two thousand people.

The entire Yangtze River estuary was full of broken and burning shipboards, and drowning corpses were everywhere... The remaining Wu Yue warships fled back to Hangzhou in a hurry, and their courage was scared. Many people kept echoing in their ears, which was simply chilling.

Wu Yue was defeated and ran away in shame.

When Nan Tang arrived, Ren Tianxing had already gathered his fleet and retreated to Jinghai.

They had a brief fight, and Ren Tianxing sank three Southern Tang ships and injured two. His fleet was unscathed, but because there were few shells left, he could only retreat. The Southern Tang navy was also shocked and did not dare to continue chasing, so both sides ended in a hurry.

It was of course good news that the Wu Yue Navy severely damaged and snatched all the 2 million taels of silver!

What made Ye Hua even more relieved was that the bed crossbow had such a good effect in the water battle, and in the future, there would be direction for building warships.

"The good news is over, so let's talk about the bad news! Is Ren Tianxing going to hand over the money to me? Is he trying to take it alone or share half of the meeting?"

Zhao Er shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Master, it's not all, he, he..."

Ye Hua frowned, "What's wrong with him?"

"He sent all these silver back to Wu Yue. He said that this was the hard-earned money of the people of Wu Yue, and it was all the money and ointment of the people. If you spend such money, you will go to the eighteen levels of hell!"

"absurd!"

Ye Hua suddenly stood up, "A pirate leader, can he become a Buddha or not?"

Zhao Er grinned and whispered: "Master, you don't understand yet. This is something that someone forced me to do!"

"It's Lu Duoxun!" Ye Hua said with his teeth: "Where are others, haven't they been staying in the inn?"
