Traveling through Great Qin: Father Qin Shihuang!

"You should know more about Che'er's ability than I do. In the past, Daqin was inseparable from strict administration and heavy taxes for various reasons, but in the future, with Cheer's help, I believe that Daqin will get better and better."

"Che'er has offered many national policies to the widow. With these national policies, Daqin will only become stronger and stronger. I believe you can see this. Now the widow is changing Daqin step by step."

"You are recommended by Che'er, and I also believe in your ability. Now I am asking you, are you willing, with Che'er's will, to build Daqin into the dream of my Daqin Qianshou?"

"The untouchables are honored by His Majesty, and the untouchables are forgiven for their disrespect. The untouchables are willing to contribute my part to your majesty!"

Shu kowtowed deeply, feeling very grateful in his heart.

"Okay, I believe you. When I return to Xianyang, I will entitle you to be the internal history of Daqin Zhisu, responsible for managing the treasury of Daqin finance, ranking among the nine ministers, and giving you the surname Zhao!"

"what?"

Hearing Ying Zheng's reward, not only Shu, but even Meng Yi was stunned on the spot.

Although the position of Zhi Su Nei Shi is very dangerous, no one has even held it for a long time.

But after all, he is one of the real nine ministers with great power.

"Meng Qing, when you return to Xianyang, draw up an order immediately!"

"By the way, Zhao Shu, Che'er doesn't know the identity of the widow yet, so you must not reveal it for the time being!"

Ying Zheng explained to Meng Yi and Zhao Shu respectively.

"Here!"

……

The carriage quickly drove back to Xianyang, and Zhao Shu was also arranged into the mansion temporarily prepared by Ying Zheng for him.

At the court meeting tomorrow morning, Ying Zheng's will will be issued in court, and by then Zhao Shu will really reach the sky in one step.

Meng Yi was not idle either. After Zhao Shu came back, he wrote out all the Arabic numerals, arithmetic formulas and multiplication tables that Zhao Che had given him.

Meng Yi had to arrange for someone to hurry up and copy a few more copies of these things, and then distribute them for everyone to learn.

In addition, there is also the abacus, so we must hurry up to make it and make it popular as soon as possible.

At night, in Yingzheng's private palace, Meng Yi had been busy all day, and finally got some leisure time, so he hurried over to report the situation.

"How is the account statistics of the bank today?"

"Returning to Your Majesty, besides depositing money, today's bank also has a lot of withdrawal business. Some merchants have already started to use bank notes in the market. This is good news."

"That's right, this will speed up the circulation of banknotes and allow people to accept this new type of currency faster!"

Ying Zheng nodded, pondered for a while, and then explained to Meng Yi.

"By the way, at the court meeting tomorrow, a clause will be added to the Qin Law that no one may maliciously refuse to accept damaged bank notes, otherwise it will be considered a violation of the law!"

"Here!"

Ying Zheng's ideas coincided with Meng Yi's, and many similar situations did occur today.

There are quite a few merchants who are still unwilling to trust the bank, so they refuse to use bank notes for transactions.

It is precisely because of this that many people who just saved money yesterday have to withdraw part of it today.

"Today's accounts are probably more difficult to calculate, right?"

"Back to Your Majesty, Zhao Shu took the initiative to ask his subordinates to take him to the bank in the afternoon. He is now helping to calculate the accounts, and it should be completed soon!"

As soon as Meng Yi's words fell, the servant outside the door sent the news that Zhao Shu asked to see him.

"My minister Zhao Shu, I have seen Your Majesty!"

"Excuse me, Zhao Qing, have the bank's accounts been counted today?"

"Return to Your Majesty, fortunately, it is not disgraceful, there is no defect, please take a look at it!"

Zhao Shu presented the ledger.

Ying Zheng opened it and glanced at it, and found that Zhao Shu was using Arabic numerals.

And the expenditure and income are divided into two parts to be recorded separately, and the total is calculated after the results are finally counted.

This way of recording not only looks concise and clear, but also obviously much simpler to calculate.

"That's right, Che'er really saw the right person, Zhao Qing has worked hard!"

Ying Zheng nodded and praised.

After the upsurge of just opening yesterday, the amount of savings today has indeed dropped a lot compared to yesterday.

Coupled with the refusal to accept bank notes, the number of deposits today is less than 3000 million.

After excluding the 2000 million withdrawn today, the total income today is only over 1000 million.

"It seems that the promotion of Qianzhuang cannot be completed overnight. Mengqing still needs to work together with the widow!"

Ying Zheng closed the account book and told Meng Yi.

"It's the same with Zhao Qing. During this time, we must teach those accountants how to count as soon as possible. Otherwise, we will be overwhelmed when the bank becomes popular!"

"Here!"

After explaining the matter, Zhao Shu and Meng Yi left respectively.

……

The next day, the Xianyang court meeting was held as usual.

Zhao Shu, as the incoming historian of Zhisu, was also brought into Xianyang Palace by Meng Yi.

"Who is this person? Why have you never seen it before?"

"It was brought by Meng Shangqing, could it be his relative?"

"This is a court meeting. Even if you are a relative of Meng Shangqing, you can't get involved. Isn't he afraid of His Majesty's punishment?"

When seeing Zhao Shu for the first time, many officials in the court were obviously a little confused.

But with Meng Yi following him, no one went to ask.

Soon, the court meeting officially began, and Zhao Shu could only stand in the palace because he had not yet received the official award.

At this time, under the service of the servant, Ying Zheng had come to the throne and sat down.

"I'll wait to see Your Majesty, Your Majesty for ten thousand years!"

"You love me, please sit down!"

Ying Zheng waved his hand, motioning everyone to return to their seats. In the main hall, only Zhao Shu was left alone.

It was also the first time for Zhao Shu to participate in such a grand occasion, coupled with the gazes cast by many ministers, he felt uncomfortable all over.

"My dear friends, before today's court meeting officially starts, I would like to introduce a great talent to you!"

"The gentleman in front of you, named Shu, native of Qin, from Jingshui, is also my Daqin's new Zhisu Neishi who is about to take office, and also serves as the head of the Daqin Bank!"
