"King Qi has arrived!", the eunuch said loudly in a sharp voice.

The waiting Wenchen generals all looked at it together.

Among the Xia officials who came at this time, there were many ministers and few generals. Several military divisions in the north only sent generals of low grades to watch the ceremony.

At the moment, Da Yuan didn't have the energy to take care of them, so naturally he wouldn't attack them because of this matter.

Li Dewang knew that he was a puppet, and he didn't dare to object to it.

"Meet the prince!" , the crowd shouted.

However, there was also a group of Yuan army generals in silver armor on the field, but they did not bow down. Including the soldiers of the Yuan Army who were guarding the imperial city around them, they were all just silently watching.

"The little king of the lower kingdom meets the king of Liang!" , Li Dewang knew the measure, ignored the officials who knelt down, and rushed to Li Chengye, who was watching the ceremony, and saluted with a humble attitude.

"Hurry up! The edict to canonize you has been sent from Maru. I wanted to wait a few more days so that the edict could arrive and we could perform the canonization ceremony together. But when the Mongolian people entered the customs, they didn't have time to prepare in detail. Canonize it today and ascend to the throne of the kingdom. ", Li Chengye confessed.

Although there was a smile on his face, it was only a polite smirk. If you really want to say that there is a bit of sincerity, you can't see it.

Li Dewang didn't allow it, and immediately responded: "Just listen to the prince's arrangement!" ”。

So the music played, and Li Dewang, under the witness of hundreds of officials, performed the ritual of praying to the sky. After a complicated and jerky prayer, he once again accepted the kneeling of the civil and military officials.

It is worth noting that this time, the lord of Xia ascended the throne and completely complied with the Han rites.

From the text to the ceremonial guard, to the costumes, all of them are based on Han rites. Including the officials who came to watch the ceremony, they were also dressed in Hanfu.

Only the Yuan army was still wearing military uniforms, which was somewhat out of place.

By the time all the rituals were over, most of the time had passed.

This is still due to the haste of preparation, otherwise it would not have been possible to solve it in one day. The evening is a big feast without exception, even if the Zhongxing Mansion suffers a great change, the north of the Xia Kingdom is not at peace. The new emperor ascended the throne, the whole world celebrated, and the rules of banqueting civil ministers and military generals remained unchanged.

Li Dewang personally ordered to give different valuable gifts such as cotton cloth, hanging bells, and jade to the military generals. These are Dayuan's fist products, and Li Chengye bought them from Dayuan's businessmen. Then at a high price, it was sold to Li Dewang.

Of course, it is settled with real estate such as minerals and fields.

Li Dewang himself has no money, but as the lord of the Xia Kingdom, he can use the resources of the Xia Kingdom. These minerals and fields, as well as the right to build roads and collect taxes in the future, can be used as equivalents and used to trade with Dayuan.

In the case of all things not settled, the bank that Dayuan had just established had already planned to build a new branch in the Xia Kingdom. The branch of Gansu Province has only been established for two months. Right now, in Ganzhou, it has played a constructive economic role.

For example, when a merchant goes out to do business, he no longer has to carry a large amount of coins. As long as you exchange paper money from the bank, even a large amount of silver bills, you can use it for transactions.

And it's easy to transport.

Gone are the days when you had to buy commercial goods from Malu, Puhua and other places, and then rush to other places to sell them.

As long as it is in writing, inform the agent in advance of the goods that need to be purchased. Then just wait for someone from the Dayuan Post Department at the destination to deliver the goods.

For example, a merchant in Ganzhou wanted to buy canned fruit from Yili and transport it to Xia to buy it. Then he can send his needs by letter to the local purchasing agency in Yili. It doesn't matter if you don't have a familiar trading house!

Under the business model of Lee's Commercial Bank, the business philosophy of all-field and cross-border chain has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Many large trade groups have also established chain trading houses, and have set up branches in major popular trading spots.

Some small merchants can buy through the branches of these trading houses.

However, the agency fees of these large commercial houses are not low, and from the cost considerations, some businessmen will choose to cooperate with the government.

In order to increase the income of the people and promote the development of the regional economy. The government also actively organized the people to cooperate with the merchants to sell their surplus products.

Or take Apple as an example!

The local villages or towns in Ili will sign trade cooperation agreements with some businessmen under the organization of the state government and county government.

This is somewhat similar to the futures contracts of later generations.

When the apples are not yet ripe, the quantity to be purchased is agreed and a certain deposit is paid. Regardless of the price rise or fall in the future, the amount payable by the contract will not change. If one party breaches the contract, the government will step in to facilitate the other party to receive corresponding compensation.

There is a government as a guarantee, and there are higher profit margins than large commercial banks.

This mode of cooperation became a favorite trade option for small merchants.

Therefore, they only need to draw up the contract in advance, and when the apples are ripe, within the agreed time period, the postal department will transport the goods to Ganzhou.

During the period, in addition to natural and man-made disasters, once the goods are lost, they will be unconditionally compensated in full.

In this way, the transportation risk of the merchant is just eliminated.

Although the prerequisite for full compensation is to purchase insurance with a small amount, it is nothing compared to the risk of damage to the goods.

Therefore, more and more merchants have chosen the trade method of shipping by the expiration of the source of goods.

In the past spring and autumn seasons, the north and south of Dayuan were full of businessmen coming and going from the south to the north, which has been quietly changing. In its place, the Postal Department has an increasing number of transport personnel.

The official road between Malu and Broken Leaves often causes large traffic jams.

In order to alleviate the traffic pressure, the Dayuan Transportation Department has planned to build another official road in addition to the existing official road. But it's not cement, it's a track made of steel. When the time comes, the horse-drawn cart will be used to make the cargo box with pulleys slide on the track.

It not only relieves the pressure of transportation, but also speeds up transportation.

This new type of railway was named 'Daewon Railway' by the Department of Transportation. At present, it is still under investigation, and it is estimated that it will have to wait for a while for the specific construction.

For Xia Guo, all the changes in Dayuan have little to do with it. Like Li Dewang, when he mortgaged the right to build the way, he didn't expect that Dayuan would get greater benefits through this right in the future.

After rewarding a cadre of officials, it is a proclamation to the world. Li Dewang also issued the first edict on his ascension to the throne, which was a pardon order. Forgiveness is given to those who are not the most heinous offenders.

Li Chengye saw that things were almost over, so he didn't delay much in Zhongxing Mansion. led the generals and rushed to the front line of Keyimun without stopping.

Although there are still a few military divisions in the Xia Kingdom who do not listen to Da Yuan's orders, they are not afraid of their bad things. Because of the three military divisions of Hengshan in the east, it is the Jin State that is guarded against. They don't dare to act rashly.
