Perhaps due to his own experience, Xu Ping had no idea what was the most important thing tonight. He just felt that there were some risks for the current emperors and ministers to see the astronomical phenomena through a telescope, but he couldn't say where the risks were.

The others include two prime ministers, two Hanlin bachelors, not to mention the officials of Si Tianjian and Hanlin Astronomy Academy, but they all know it well. What Zhao Zhen wants to see is the Emperor Star, which represents his own star. If you see the Emperor Star through the telescope, or if there are other stars next to it that are brighter than the Emperor Star, you will inevitably leave nails in your heart.

As for other stars, such as Wenchang, Wenquxing, Zuofu, Youbi, etc., some problems should also be with others, not to shake the foundation of the country. If the Sitianjian official looked at the astrological signs through a telescope and wrote a letter tomorrow to say which star is dark and unclear, the ministers in the court may be in trouble, but they may not be able to eat.

After seeing the Ziwei Star Palace, Zhao Zhen lost interest in other astrological signs. He really wanted to see the starry sky. Anyway, the telescope was in the palace. It would be great to bring a concubine he loved to see. What's the best thing about it with a bunch of old men here?

Zhao Zhen left the telescope and asked Lu Yijian to take the people present to watch one by one. The young supervisor of Sitian, Yang Weide, explained on the side that what star palace is, the atmosphere gradually became lively.

The bright moon hangs high tonight, and is cloudless, which is a rare good weather. Looking at the starry sky from the telescope, many stars hidden by the moonlight are in their eyes, and everyone is amazed.

After everyone took turns to see it, Wang Zeng stepped forward and bowed, "Your Majesty, looking at the sky through this telescope is much clearer than looking at the stars of the sky with your eyes. According to the night, there is no other strange things. It is a pity to set it up only in Sitianjian and Hanlin Astronomy Academy. I asked Yu Chongwen Academy to set up one, so that the Cichens and Bachelors of the Library can also use this to view the sky. Compared with the classics collected in the Library, it is also beneficial for them to collate the books."

Zhao Zhen asked Lu Yijian: "What does Lu Xianggong think?"

Lu Yijian said: "What Wang Xianggong said is very true. In addition to Sitianjian and the Astronomy Academy, only the Pavilions can read ancient books throughout the dynasty, so that the Pavilion staff can use some to compare with the classics."

"Then let's settle down, Sansi will make another telescope like this and go to Chongwen Academy." Speaking of this, he paused and said, "But one telescope is a little less on the observatory, Yang Weide—"

Yang Weide took a step forward: "I am here!"

"You have been careful these days and asked the personnel of the Tianshi Supervisor to use this telescope to see the sky for a few days. They saw how many suitable ones were used. They reported to Xu Ping, the third department, and sent it there. According to me, each side is required, and four are required, at least at least no less than this number."

"I accept the order!"

Yang Weide looked happy. How could there be too many astronomical instruments like this? He had to get ten or eight out of them.

Zhao Zhen asked Xu Ping again: "It will take time for the new telescope three departments to be made?"

Xu Ping hesitated for a moment before replying: "Your Majesty, it's not difficult to make a new telescope, but where does the money come from?"

Zhao Zhen was stunned, looked at Lu Yijian and Wang Zeng, and laughed together.

The things that the Sansi have newly opened are charged for money. This is the political achievements of Xu Ping and the officials of the Sansi. Xu Ping is just given to the priest. How can such a big guy be given to him for free?

Zhao Zhen was in a very good mood and said to Xu Ping: "Click out the amount of money you need and go to the inner treasury to collect it. However, the money is released from the inner treasury, and you will write down your contribution this time first, and there is no reward."

Xu Ping thanked him. He knew in his heart that he had no hope of any reward. If he rewarded such a thing, he would take it once every few days, which was obviously impossible. His official position has reached a certain level and would not easily rise. His official position will be promoted to the right counselor, and he will not easily rise. He will be promoted to the right counselor, and he will not easily rise. He will be in the Longtu Pavilion waiting for the system and have already entered the ranks of high-ranking officials. Every further step will be noticed. Without great contributions, he will not easily move.

The king and his ministers said a few more gossips on the rooftop, and Zhao Zhen disbanded.

Xu Ping breathed a sigh of relief. Just as he was about to leave, Zhao Zhen said again: "Xu Ping is not in a hurry to leave the palace for the time being. I have something to ask you. You can go to Tianzhang Pavilion to wait, and I will come after a while."

Xu Ping accepted the order and said goodbye to Lu Yijian and others. He led it to Tianzhang Pavilion from Xiaohuangmen.

Everyone said that Zhao Zhen wanted to ask about some details of the telescope, ignoring Xu Ping's affairs, and while whispering the celestial phenomena he saw tonight, he walked out of the palace together.

It was already late at night, and the palace was quiet everywhere. A full moon hung high on its head, shining through the flowers and trees, making the road under its feet mottled.

Xu Ping thought about it but didn't know what Zhao Zhen was going to ask. He was definitely not interested in the technical details of the telescope, so Zhao Zhen was not so curious. With that time and energy, he might as well find a few palace maids to watch singing and dancing.

No matter how hard he thought about it, Xu Ping simply didn't want to, just lowered his head and followed Xiaohuangmen.

He almost crossed the inner room and arrived at Tianzhang Pavilion. Before Zhao Zhen came, Xu Ping stood quietly aside.

I don’t know how much time has passed, but when Xu Ping lowered his head and was already dozing, he heard the sound of tiny footsteps. He quickly cheered up and stood up straight.

"Come in with me."

Zhao Zhen said as he didn't stop and went straight into Tianzhang Pavilion.

After a while, Zhao Zhen had already changed into casual clothes. Xu Ping noticed that Zhao Zhen had just worn public uniforms to the Hanlin Astronomical Academy, which was usually worn when discussing affairs in Chongzheng Hall. When meeting ministers on a daily basis, Zhao Zhen was wearing casual clothes as long as he was not in formal occasions like Chongzheng Hall and Yanhe Hall. It seemed that he really attached great importance to what had just happened.

After entering Tianzhang Pavilion, I ordered a seat and came to tea at the small yellow gate.

Zhao Zhen looked at Xu Ping without any clichés and said straight to the point: "Store you here to discuss matters has nothing to do with the matter of observing the celestial phenomena just now. I looked at the accounts brought by Sansi. In the past two months, plus the income from the newly opened shops, plus the amount of money added to the business operations under Sansi's management, it has been more than one million yuan a month."

This number obviously shocked Zhao Zhen. After saying that, his body couldn't help but tilt towards Xu Ping.

Xu Ping said calmly: "Thank you for your Majesty's blessing, the amount of money recorded in the past two months is indeed considerable."

"And it is increasing every month, with an additional 300,000 guan per month! If this continues, by the end of the year, the additional money from the Sanshi will be more than 10 million guan, and all the holes will be filled!"

Xu Ping sighed slightly: "Calling money is too fast, and now it's a little trouble. Weichen is also worried about this matter."

"Sorry? What's the worry?" Zhao Zhen was obviously stunned when he heard Xu Ping's words. "In the past, the three departments were worried because the Curry had no money. Now the treasury is full, which is not a good thing. What's there to worry about?"

It turned out that Zhao Zhen was different from himself. Xu Ping thought about it again, was it because the Sansi now had enough warehouses and did not borrow money from the inward warehouses, and Zhao Zhen felt a little disappointed?

Xu Ping raised the tablet in his hand, concealed his expression, and bowed, "Your Majesty, I am worried about the fact that the copper coins are now in the Sanshiku. If the wealth in the world is fixed, I am not convinced of this statement, but the copper coins in the world are actually fixed. If there are too many custody in the Sanshiku, the people in the capital will have less hands, and all kinds of commercial transactions will be affected. It will be meaningful to collect and distribute them. If the money is saved in the custody, the money will be useless. If ordinary people still have copper coins in the cellar, it is not a good thing to save money in the custody."

Copper coins are currency, unlike gold and silver, it is illegal to store large amounts of copper coins in private according to the law. However, after decades of inflation, no people have stored a large amount of copper coins, and most of them are still stored in the warehouses of government officials at all levels. Local governments with good economic conditions only enter but not leave, and a large amount of copper coins are accumulated, which is also one of the reasons for the shortage of money among the people.

Obviously, Xu Ping's answer was beyond Zhao Zhen's expectations. He was stunned for a while before saying, "Why, will too much copper coins in the three stakes affect the people of the capital? In previous years, there were insufficient copper coins. The outside state army had affairs, so the three stakes often had no money to distribute money, so he was able to join China and France? Why is it the opposite now!"

"Your Majesty, your actions are too smooth, too much is too bad. Now the Sansi copper coins are collected too fast and dispersed too slowly, which leads to the people in the capital without money. A piece of money is not beneficial to save it. The key is to make the people not lacking in their hands and the commerce on the street prosper. When the business becomes more, the tax will be collected, and the more taxes will be collected, and the more money in the Sansi treasury will be increased. This is the reason why the flowing water does not rot and the household hinges will not rot. Money must be in and out, and the two parties can coordinate to make the people happy."

Zhao Zhen originally called Xu Ping here, hoping to praise him for his financial management skills and that the country would not be short of money at once, but he did not expect that he would worry about more money. Then he thought that Sansi was the main thing to spend money, and it was indeed not a good thing to have too much money in his hand.

"This is a bit difficult. Originally, I saw that Sansi's shop business was very prosperous, and it was sold much faster than the previous ones such as the incense pharmacy. I also thought that some storage in the in-house warehouse would be sold there. There are a lot of property in the in-house warehouse, and it has been there for a long time. It is better to sell it for copper coins. I didn't expect that there would be such trouble."

Xu Ping said: "It is not a problem to say that trouble is not a problem. Goods that are difficult to store must be sold, otherwise it will be a waste of money in vain? The key is that you have to find a way to disperse the money now, and then collect it after it is dispersed."

Seeing Xu Ping repeatedly stressing that the money now needs to be scattered, Zhao Zhen knew in his heart that he must have had an idea and asked, "In your opinion, how is Curry's money now the most suitable one?"

"Report to Your Majesty, according to my opinion, the most appropriate method is to abandon the capital officials and pay real money! No matter how much money they receive in the future, even the capital troops will give full money!"
