Li Liangzuo handed over the issuance of banknotes to the Finance Department, that is, to the imperial court, in fact, there are far-reaching considerations, for Li Liangzuo is just from this pocket to another pocket, but this has far-reaching significance and development for the Great Xia Empire, after all, the Finance Department is not the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the issuance of paper money in the Ministry of Internal Affairs is just a tool to collect money, and placed in the Department of Finance can play a role in macroeconomic regulation and control of the entire world's economy, after all, the people in the Department of Finance are professional financial talents.
"I came to you two today just to find out the bottom line, this money is not a cub in the silver treasury, only what is spent can be called money."
As soon as Li Liangzuo's words came out, both of them understood, Li Liangzuo was planning to spend money, and the two of them didn't know where the money was going to be spent; However, in the eyes of the two of them, the place where Li Liangzuo needs to spend money is nothing more than the army.
Li Liangzuo continued: "I plan to build a palace in Guanzhong, and the first characteristic of this palace is that it is large; The second characteristic is that there are many, exquisite gardens in the south of the Yangtze River and exquisite grassland scenery in the north; The third feature is that this palace of mine should reflect the supremacy of imperial power and the majesty of the empire; This palace of mine must surpass the Daming Palace of the Tang Dynasty in terms of area, specifications, and decoration."
Li Liangzuo's words almost didn't scare Zhou Shengcai, Li Liangzuo's where is the construction of the palace, it is completely built in accordance with the qualifications of the official palace, in Zhou Shengcai's view, Li Liangzuo is a large amount of money, of course, the construction of the Daming Palace in the Tang Dynasty allocated the taxes of the fifteen states of the empire, and at the same time stopped the payment of a month's income for officials at all levels, and the cost of subsequent construction was even more amazing.
"Your Majesty, I am afraid that the cost of such a large-scale project is huge, and although the treasury is a little rich, I am afraid that it will not be able to support such a large expenditure."
Zhou Shengcai said to Li Liangzuo.
"I know that such a huge project cannot be completed in one or two years, and the construction of the palace this time is mainly drawn from my inner treasury, and if it is not enough, it will be transferred from the national treasury."
"Your Majesty, although there is money in the inner treasury, it is scattered all over the world, slaves" "It just so happens that many things need to be purchased from all over the world, and Longtai Commercial Bank will be responsible for it, but all expenses must be handed over to me to personally audit."
"Slaves obey" "I'm just saying hello to you in advance, so that you can be mentally prepared."
After deciding to build the palace, Li Liangzuo told the ministers that it was over, and Li Liangzuo had decided that this matter had been decided, and the court had to agree if it agreed, and if it didn't agree, it had to agree; Since it was decided to build the palace, it was necessary to have a systematic plan, first of all, to design the construction drawings, the construction drawings of the palace were designed by the Royal Painting Academy of the Great Xia Empire, and finally handed over to Li Liangzuo to personally approve the construction before construction; Li Liangzuo is actually equivalent to the chief designer of the entire project.
After a period of field investigation, the palace of the Great Xia Empire was located at the intersection of Bashui and Chanshui, located in the vast area west of Baqiao Town in the east of Chang'an, the specific construction and construction work of the palace Li Liangzuo handed it over to the general Jin Shoucheng, Jin Shoucheng is the manager of Jincheng, all the weapons used by the Xia army must be approved by Jin Shoucheng to be able to equip the Xia army, Jin Shoucheng is known for his shrewdness and ability, and is the best candidate for the construction of the Great Xia Palace.
However, at this time, Jin Shoucheng was not young, in order to commend his achievements over the years, when he was a great vassal, Jin Shoucheng was also named a first-class marquis; After receiving the appointment, Jin Shoucheng took his sons to return to Xingqing Mansion after an on-the-spot investigation to make a detailed report to Li Liangzuo.
"Your Majesty, Lord Jin has arrived, and he is outside the palace."
After Xiaofuzi came in, he reported to Li Liangzuo.
"Announce him in."
"Your Majesty has a decree to announce that Kim Shoucheng will be visited" Li Liangzuo and Jin Shoucheng haven't seen each other for more than ten years, and after seeing Li Liangzuo, Jin Shoucheng immediately knelt down and said: "The old minister sees Your Majesty, long live my emperor, long live, long live." ” Li Liangzuo personally helped Jin Shoucheng up and said: "Aiqing is exempt, I haven't seen Aiqing for many years, and I miss it very much."
"Your Majesty is worried."
Li Liangzuo saw that Jin Shoucheng was followed by a young man, so he asked Jin Shoucheng: "Aiqing, who is?"
"Your Majesty, this is the dog Jin Boxiong."
"See Your Majesty for Humble Duties" "Flat down, Jin Aiqing, your son knows that he is a talent just by looking at it."
"The dog is just following Weichen's side."
After chatting a few words, Li Liangzuo said to Jin Boxiong: "It's up to you to report to me today."
"Humble Command."
Jin Boxiong commanded.
Then Jin Boxiong asked people to move in a survey map, hung it on the wall and introduced it to Li Liangzuo: "Your Majesty, according to the field survey of my father and my humble position, it is best for the entire palace to be backed by the northwest and face the southeast according to the direction of the terrain.
Jin Boxiong's introduction is very detailed, according to the map, the general planning of the palace has basically been finished, but Li Liangzuo found that according to Jin Boxiong's introduction, the palace has actually been greatly restricted, and the planning is also decent and has no characteristics, and it has not achieved the result that Li Liangzuo wants, in fact, Li Liangzuo has great expectations for this new palace, and Li Liangzuo does not want his new palace to be the same as before.
"Jin Aiqing, this plan of yours is very good, but it is not what I want; According to this construction method, the whole palace is too restricted, and the reason why I chose to keep the palace between these two rivers is not to use these two rivers as a barrier to surround the palace, but on the contrary, I want to divert the water of the two rivers into the palace, on the contrary, I hope to build the entire palace into a water palace; I hope that the palace can sit south and face north, and to the south of the palace is a royal garden, which is also for future generations to expand."
Li Liangzuo told Jin Shoucheng and Jin Boxiong his thoughts one by one, according to Li Liangzuo's ideas, the amount of work has increased by a little bit, but since Li Liangzuo has this requirement, then as courtiers, they should do their best to complete it, in terms of the scale of this palace, everyone began to vaguely feel that Li Liangzuo wants to build more than just a palace; Perhaps in the future, this palace may become the new imperial palace of the Great Xia Empire.
Once this became a new imperial palace, it meant that the Great Xia Empire was going to move its capital from the far northwest to Guanzhong, and it was not just as simple as building an imperial palace, but also matching it with various yamen, princes' and ministers' mansions, bazaars, and so on; Therefore, as soon as the news that Li Liangzuo was going to build a palace came out, the entire Xingqing Mansion spread the gossip that the Great Xia Empire was going to move the capital to Guanzhong, and Li Liangzuo neither agreed nor objected to this gossip; However, the design and planning of the entire palace has never stopped, and the deadline required by Li Liangzuo is very tight.
