Chapter 201 Currency Reform! Personality Cult? Same Excuse! (Ch 201)

In the Golden Palace.
Watching my future son follow the army into battle.
Ji Changwei’s eyes were full of worry.
but.
Except her.
Other people’s attention.
More is placed on.
Chen Huaixin is preparing to carry out monetary reform!
“Change the silver currency that is popular in Yu Country into paper currency.”
“This is totally unnecessary, isn’t it?”
“The reason why our country issues treasure notes is because there is really no copper or silver available!”
“But Yuguo has the support of Japan Island, so there is no need to worry about the shortage of silver!”
“Changing the monetary system… this will make the people feel uneasy!”
Wang Qianhe looked at the deduced future and felt a little more confused.
Although he also knew that Chen Huaixin had already made preparations for currency reform.
Otherwise, there would be no need for him to train talents for the paper currency system when Yuguo received silver support from Japan.
But.
That was then.
Now is now!
Everything is fine in Yuguo!
There is no need to change the current situation of Yu Country for the sake of so-called better business development!
“Or rather.”
“The current business level of Yuguo.”
“That’s more than enough!”
Wang Qianhe thought in his heart.
The commercial development of Yu State can be said to have crushed the current Cheng State. If one tenth of the huge amount of commercial taxes paid each year could be distributed to Cheng State, it would be enough for them to breathe a sigh of relief!
Now that things have developed to this point, shouldn’t we be satisfied with the status quo and maintain its stability?
Why would we want it to go any further? It doesn’t make that much sense, does it?!
“only.”
“Chen Huaixin.”
“He’s always loved change.”
“this time……”
“There’s no way this will be an exception!”
Wang Qianhe sighed.
His governing philosophy is completely different from Chen Huaixin’s ideas.
Even if everyone knows that they need to maintain stability and the status quo, they can still develop steadily.
But Chen Huaixin didn’t want to do that! He wanted to make changes before anything happened!
“If we let him serve as an official in our country, we may have to worry about reforms every other day.”
Wang Qianhe suddenly thought of this.
However, judging from the deduction of the Jiantian Mirror.
If Chen Huaixin really wants to make changes in Chengguo, the empress will certainly fully support him, because he has proved that her ideas are correct, and they, the officials, will have to bear more work!
“in this way.”
“It will definitely make many lower-level officials dissatisfied with it!”
“Because the only ones who know the mirror of heaven and know what will happen in the future are the ministers in the court today.”
Wang Qianhe looked at everyone in the hall.
They knew that Chen Huaixin’s reforms were correct, but the officials and the people at the grassroots level did not know this!
They will only feel that the masters in the court are trying to make trouble for them in various ways, and those officials from aristocratic families will definitely put obstacles in their way, which will make the reform even more difficult!
“so.”
“It seems so.”
“It may not be a good thing for Chen Huaixin to serve as an official in my Cheng State.”
“Then my side…”
“Maybe it’s time to change!”
Wang Qianhe no longer thinks about the future currency reform.
He saw from this incident what might happen in reality!
And this.
For him.
is the most important thing!
“because.”
“This concerns…my future!”
…
[Twenty-seventh year of Jingping, October.]
【Chen Huaixin discussed currency reform with his ministers. 】
【at first.】
【In Chen Huaixin’s opinion. 】
【This matter may encounter great resistance. 】
[Because of the previous disaster of treasure notes. ]
【But it is the key to their success! 】
[Among the ministers present, many who had experienced that incident have passed away, but there are still many who are active in this court. ]
【”so.”】
【“After hearing this.”】
[“They will probably be very opposed to it.”]
[“No one wants to see the disaster that happened before happen in my country!”]
[This was Chen Huaixin’s original idea.]
[He has already thought about how to explain it.]
【However.】
【He didn’t expect it. 】
【When he proposed this idea. 】
[All the ministers actually support it! ]
[“Because Your Majesty has been preparing for this matter for a long time.”]
[“The lesson learned from the previous incident of violence will never happen in my country!”]
[“So this currency reform should only be a good thing for Dayu.”]
[“Why would you object?!”]
【This is the reason given by the ministers. 】
【but.】
【These words.】
[Not only did it not make Chen Huaixin feel relieved. ]
[Instead, his brows furrowed slightly. ]
【because.】
He feels.
[Many officials have already developed a blind worship for him! ]
[Even the new prime minister, who has a steady personality, did not raise any objections to this matter! ]
“This kind of personality cult.”
“This blind obedience.”
[“But it’s very scary!”]
[“Although it can highly concentrate power, it will make the operation of Yuguo more efficient!”]
[“But it may also lead to arbitrary behavior and increase the risk of major mistakes and losses!”]
【Chen Huaixin thought in his heart.】
【Even if.】
He does possess a great deal of knowledge.
[But on many matters, we still need to discuss with the Cabinet and the six ministries! ]
[Because knowledge is just knowledge. If it does not conform to current reality, it will only lead to worse consequences! ]
【”and.”】
【“As the one who is worshipped.”】
【“They will also deify you.”】
[“Finally, I became a flawless god!”]
[“This problem…will become more serious!”]
【Chen Huaixin frowned.】
[Ever since the new Prime Minister proposed to include his deeds in the textbooks, he had already sensed this tendency, and now it has intensified! ]
[But things like personality cult are not so easy to eliminate. Even a hundred years later, the influence may still exist! ]
【Thinking of this. 】
【Chen Huaixin’s intention to abdicate has become even stronger.】
[Even if this doesn’t reduce the impact, it can at least prevent it from getting worse! ]
[Then increase the publicity efforts of others to let the people know how glorious the deeds of those who have made great contributions to Yuguo are. This will also divert some attention! ]
【“It seems so.”】
[“The 50 most influential people that I had thought of earlier can now be put on the agenda.”]
[“But I think it would be more appropriate to let the Crown Prince do this.”]
[“Leave it to…”]
【“Then he will be in power!”】
…
[Twelfth month of the 27th year of Jingping.]
【About currency reform. 】
【It spread to the public through newspapers.】
【Suddenly.】
【The people of many cities. 】
[Everyone knows that the imperial court is preparing to launch paper money to replace the current silver trading method! ]
【For businessmen, they are both looking forward to it and worried. 】
【”because.”】
【“Trade now.”】
[“It is indeed very inconvenient to carry a large amount of silver.”]
[“It would be much more convenient if we could change it to paper money.”]
【”but……”】
[“Will this lead to the disaster of the previous period, where the treasure notes were worthless, happening in my country of Yu?”]
[Businessmen are worried.]
[Even if they all know.]
[There is no need for the imperial court to use this method to get their money. ]
[Because if the imperial court really wants it, as long as they let out a little word, there will be a large number of merchants willing to offer their entire fortunes! ]
[Didn’t the merchants in the Chamber of Commerce gain certain political rights through this method, allowing them to live a more comfortable life now than before? ]
Compared to businessmen.
[The people are more accepting of it! ]
[There weren’t even many voices of opposition! ]
[When Chen Huaixin learned about this, his first reaction was confusion, and his second reaction was to wonder if the worship of that person was also prevalent among the people?]
[“If that’s the case.”]
【“That brings hidden dangers.”】
[“But it’s even more serious than the court!”]
【Chen Huaixin directly ordered the Ministry of Revenue to investigate.】
【Then.】
【The result obtained. 】
[But it surprised him a little. ]
[“The people did not begin to blindly accept the court’s policies because of the cult of personality.”]
[“It’s just because many of the old people who experienced the past have passed away.”]
[“Many of the common people today have never experienced the disaster caused by the previous treasure notes.”]
[“At most, I just heard it from my elders!”]
【Chen Huaixin looked at the survey results and suddenly realized something.】
【now.】
[It has been 27 years since Jingping! ]
【Dayu has been established for 27 years! 】
[For these dignitaries, living to the age of sixty or seventy is not uncommon, but for ordinary people, twenty-seven years is not so easy to get through! ]
[Those who are able to accept newspapers and have the habit of reading newspapers are mostly born after the founding of Yu Country! ]
[They had heard about the previous events, more or less, but that was all they had heard! ]
[As for the Qianchengbao Note, in their eyes, it was no different from a story! ]
[Businessmen are worried because they deal with money and are very sensitive to this.]
[But in the eyes of the people, Yuguo is completely different from the previous successor. Their trust in the court and the credibility accumulated by Yuguo are enough to make them believe that the paper money of Yuguo and the treasure notes of the previous successor are definitely not the same thing! ]
【”so.”】
【“Only the common people can be so easy.”】
【“We accepted the currency reform.”】
【”us……”】
[“We must not let them down!”]
【Chen Huaixin took a deep breath.】
[The people’s trust.]
[It made him feel pressure, but also joy! ]
[He still followed the procedure and explained in the court newspaper that this currency reform had detailed and complete guarantees to prove that Yuguo’s paper money would never become as worthless as before! ]
[“Whether the people can understand it or not, they must always have the right attitude!”]
【This is Chen Huaixin’s idea. 】
【And this process continues. 】
[Businessmen are no longer worried about currency reform, but are looking forward to its arrival. ]
【As for the common people.】
[They still believed in the imperial court.]
[They believe that the country will not deceive them! ]
…
In the Golden Palace.
The officials who were arguing.
Suddenly everything became quiet.
“originally.”
“I thought so.”
“Yuguo’s currency reform should cause unrest among the people.”
“I didn’t expect… that it would be so easy to implement?”
A minister said in astonishment.
Other officials saw how much trust the people who were born after the establishment of Yu State had in this country!
The new generation, who have never suffered from hunger and grew up in a powerful country, naturally do not think that the Baochao system they inherited from the past can be compared with Dayu’s currency reform!
That being the case.
So why should they worry?
“Follow the court’s arrangements.”
“I will obey your majesty’s orders.”
“That’s enough!”
Many officials sighed.
This kind of gap among the people is also a reflection of the country’s strength.
They substituted their own thinking into the reform, so naturally they could not come to the correct conclusion!
“but.”
“What Chen Huaixin called the cult of personality.”
“Isn’t this a good thing?”
“Let your subjects trust you completely, so that no matter what you do, it will be easy to do it!”
Wang Qianhe looked at the deduction of the Jiantian Mirror and frowned slightly.
He paid little attention to currency reform, because there was nothing to analyze about something that was bound to succeed.
But Chen Huaixin’s views on personality cult left him with another question.
“To address the cult of personality.”
“He even planned to abdicate early!”
“His idea…”
“I don’t understand it at all!”
Wang Qianhe shook his head.
but.
In his heart.
But suddenly I felt more expectant!
Because if Chen Huaixin abdicated early, all power would be handed over to the prince.
“Then won’t we be able to see how His Highness Ji Changwei’s son will govern Dayu?!”
…
【February, the 28th year of Jingping.】
【After a year of running around. 】
【The first batch of Yujun to set out. 】
[Finally arrived at the front line of the battlefield. ]
【“In the past.”】
[“This is still the territory of the Parthian Empire.”]
[“Now…tsk tsk.”]
[The leading general looked around and shook his head with some emotion.]
【certainly.】
【This desolate city. 】
[It’s not a battlefield yet.]
[Because whether it was the Roman Empire or their Great Yu, there were only some minor frictions, and no large-scale conflicts broke out. ]
[The Roman Empire is gnawing at the body of the Parthian Empire, but the look in Dayu’s eyes when he looks at them has a little more desire than before.]
[As for the previously signed treaty, it was tacitly invalidated after the fall of the Parthian Empire! ]
[“General, shall we set up camp first?”]
[The deputy spoke up beside him.]
[The general nodded in agreement.]
He guessed.
【In a short time.】
[Rome shouldn’t be so eager to cause trouble for them. ]
[This allows these vanguard troops to be stationed first. ]
【However.】
【What he didn’t expect was. 】
【On the night half a month later. 】
[Rome actually sent soldiers to ask them if they had seen a lost missionary.]
[“Why does this sound so familiar?”]
[The general looks at the deputy general.]
[The deputy general has a strange look on his face.]
He remembers.
【A long time ago.】
[They, Yu Country…seems to have used the same excuse! ]
