147. Iron tools
Lu Hou heard the news. Make somebody's blood boil. Ordered Long Zhonghou Guji to lead the army to the battle.
Then, the South Vietnamese army was again hoisted by the Han army.
Until Emperor Taizong ascended the throne, he descended. Quell the fighting. Transferred back to Zhou Zao's army.
This is the end of the matter.
But this iron is forbidden to be sold. But it has become a convention.
The South Vietnamese often had to pay a huge price to obtain iron tools from China.
Therefore, after Zhao Hu, the prince of Nanyue, heard Liu Che's words, he couldn't help but feel moved in his heart, could it be that this son of heaven planned to restore Taihan and Nanyue
Trade relations between countries?_ Zhao Hu is very clear. including his father.
Up and down the country of Nanyue, it can be said that there is no = the sky is not looking forward to it, and you can get advanced iron tools from the Han family.
Liu Che about these things. Naturally, homework has been done.
He looked at everyone present and said, "Hanyi Yueti three families together =, the United has decided that from now on, all non-Han laws will be banned."
Goods outside the law. Southwest Yi, South Vietnam, etc. It can trade freely with Han merchants like the Han County. ”
"I will be in Shu, Changsha and other places. Set up a mutual market, every ten days to open the market, Xu Nanyi, South Vietnam people buy freely
L’
Zhao Hu and the kings of Southwest Yi heard this. Pleasantly surprised, he knelt down. Bow his head and bow, "The ministers and other people in the country thank Your Majesty Tiansi."
That's a blessing in heaven
For a long time. The Han dynasty treated Sanyue and Southwest Yi as they did with the Xiongnu, strictly restricting the use of iron tools, technology, and books
by flowing.
Today, that obstacle no longer exists. Zhao Hu and Southwest Yi Zhugan, in addition to kowtowing to thank him. I really don't have any other ideas.
Liu Che smiled.
economy, but second only to the warfare.27 means.
In some cases, it is even more powerful than the army.
Of course, Liu Che also knows that just trade is not enough!
It's like the relationship between the Celestial Empire and Wanwan in the previous life, the economic and trade relationship between the two is close enough, but the latter still wants to make independence
stand
Economic integration should be a combination of financial integration, free trade and cultural integration.
Zhao Hu and Nan Yi Zhuyu waited until the joy passed, and their minds gradually calmed down.
Even though the Han Dynasty opened up trade licenses, the price is not expected to be very low.
Southwest Li and Nanyue are not rich countries, and when the news comes back, it is estimated that there will be a headache.
Especially in the former, many areas of Southwest Yi have just been civilized. Where is wealth and money?
To put it bluntly. The wealth of any county of the Han dynasty is comparable to the entire wealth of a small southwestern country, and even surpasses
How can this situation not make them happy and worried?
Liu Che didn't seem to be aware of the other party's troubles. took out a five-baht coin from his bosom and handed it to the rich official beside him,
Let him hand it off, and then speak. "How about you take a look at the five-bead coin I minted?"
Nowadays, five coins are in Guanzhong. It can be said that he is invincible all over the world.
Because of its high copper content and beautiful appearance, it is very popular.
If only it were that.
The five-baht coin may not be able to unify the coins in Guanzhong, and wipe out other official and private coins.
After all, Chinese businessmen and officials have always been the best at exploiting loopholes in laws and policies.
No way. These guys are too smart.
They have 10,000 ways to destroy the king of the five iron coins.
For example, if you change the five-bead coin, go home and melt it, and then mix it with some lead and iron and other things. Cast into a sitting mass before dumping to the peasants, light
It is easy to destroy all market prospects for five baht.
History has long proved that the expulsion of good money from provincial currency is not a double return.
Fortunately, Liu, who knew that there would be such a result, was prepared early.
After Liu Che minted five baht coins. It is stipulated that only five baht is allowed to be used for the sale and sale of grain under the policy of protective price protection.
And think of it as an iron law. No changes or adaptations are permitted.
The meaning of the existence of money lies in its circulation.
The money that can be circulated is the money, and the money that cannot be circulated. It's worse than dirt!
The common people are not stupid either. When they found out that they could only buy and sell goods in the government with 10,000 baht, they immediately dismissed everything else
Any form of minting money.
Coupled with the appearance and shape of the five-bead coin, it crushes all other coins.
And it's lighter than the previous currency. Easier to carry.
So in this case, the aristocratic bureaucrats. I only recognize five beads.
Thereupon. The five-baht coin has been circulating for more than half a year, and it has gradually occupied an absolute hegemony in Guanzhong, and has slowly circulated all over the world.
Some of Zhao Hu and Nanyi have also seen the five-baht coin, which has been in the limelight in Han recently.
It's just that Liu Che's intentions are a little uncertain.
It's funny to say.
At this time, almost all countries in the world were in a tabula rasa state for the concepts and cognition of finance and currency.
Not to mention that the remote Nanyue and Southwest Yi were the ruling class of the Han Dynasty, and they had no concept of this.
That's why the imperial court allowed private coinage.
In many places, cloth strings are still used as currency, and their crispness is barter.
If it weren't for the fear that the Huns would turn their faces and criticize the table, Liu Che promised that he could use the financial means of his previous life to make a lot of blood.
Zhao Hu and the King of Southwest Hui looked at the five baht coins that were sent to them, and they all looked like they didn't know why.
But since the Son of Heaven has returned, of course he has to say something nice.
"Your Majesty. The coins minted by the upper kingdom really make the lower kingdom praise the ministers.... King Yelang took the lead in patting the horse's ass.
Zhao Hu is not lagging behind, and compared with others, he is also more organized, "This five-baht coin is exquisite and easy to carry."
It is a blessing to the people of the world."
"Can you forgive you to promote this five-baht coin to the country, so that the people of the world can enjoy this blessing?"
Liu Che understands that there is no need to go around in circles to talk to these barbarians, otherwise it will only delay each other's time.
"Your Majesty is really not polite at all," Zhao Hu sighed in his heart.
On second thought, isn't it just the implementation of the five-baht coin in South Vietnam, it's not a big deal.
Anti-857 positive, the domestic currency is already enough, not more than one kind of flat.
In fact, the domestic currency market in South Vietnam was much more chaotic than that of the Han dynasty.
The main culprits were the smugglers who brought privately minted coins from all over the Han dynasty to the South Vietnamese Kingdom.
From the plain half two coins, to the eight beads of the queen of Lu, the three coins of Taizong, and even the antique bronze knife coins, it can be said that there is everything,
It's almost time to open a classical Chinese coin fair.
One more five baht is not a big deal
What's more, the five-baht coin is beautifully cast and the materials are conscientious
Not to mention the common people. It's Zhao Hu, and it's love.
As for the kings of the southwest, there is no opinion, and many small states do not even have their own monetary systems.
It is both time-saving and labor-saving to use the coins of the Han Dynasty, so why not?
As for why the Son of Heaven wants this
Haven't all China's rulers always had a tradition of having a good face?
For the sake of face, the lining can be lost, not to mention the profit?
So, Zhao Hu and the kings of the southwest almost bowed at the same time, "Your Majesty gave it, and the ministers did not dare to resign." I thank Your Majesty for your mercy
The performance of Zhao Hu and others made Liu Chele unable to close his mouth.
This feeling of selling the other party and helping the other party count the money is really cool.
But Liu Che also knew that they couldn't be blamed for this
It's really a limitation of the times! After Liu Che showed a wave of superiority, he nodded and said; "That's great!"
"I will issue an edict, from now on, Nanyue, Southwest Yi region, and Hanhu City, with five baht as the only transaction legal goods" This ......" Zhao Hu was a little stunned when he heard this
Yelang did it, and he did it
There are also some undesirable turns.
I just felt that my brain was in a mess, as if something was not right, but I couldn't tell what was wrong
Are you playing tricks? Liu Che's eyelids changed slightly, and he said in a deep voice
"Don't dare, don't dare!"
Southwest Zhugan and Zhao Hu hurriedly shook their heads
What are you kidding, this is a big territory, where do they dare to have any opinions?
Even they knew that the emperor of the Han Dynasty came out to form a constitution, and he followed the law, where did they oppose it
I'm afraid that if they dare to have the slightest objection, the next moment they will disturb the evil war
This matter is so happily set 1
Liu Che clapped his hands, and immediately two attendants came out with a thick book and handed it to Zhao Hu and the kings of Southwest Yi
After the eggs go back, they should take a closer look at the terms of this mutual trade, follow the principle of mutual benefit, and jointly establish a good and harmonious situation He used to often watch the central news of the late soil point, and all kinds of fake space words should not be too much
Zhao Hu and the kings of Southwest Yi. Holding the half-foot-tall book in a daze, he didn't say a word for a long time
Xu felt that what he had done was a little unkind, so after thinking about it, he said to Zhao Hu; "I heard that there is a Champa rice in the south of the South Vietnamese Kingdom
VIII. I can send people to buy rice seeds at a high price
Champa rice, also known as "Zaohe" or "Zhanhe", is a dry early indica rice, native to south-central Vietnam, and was first introduced to Fujian in China in the early years of the Northern Song Dynasty.
According to ancient books, Champa rice has many advantages. The first is "Naixing". The second is strong adaptability, "born regardless of location". The third is that the cattle are short-term for a long time, and only 50 days from planting to harvesting
If China can be brought in as soon as possible, it will be of great benefit to agriculture south of the Yangtze River
Zhao Hu silently wrote down the name Zhancheng Dao, and turned around to ask people to look for it carefully, and there was always some benefit
Hearing the Han Dynasty's emperor's advice to the prince of Nanyue, everyone in Nanxiyi, including Yelanggan and the King of Dian, looked at Liu Che with blank eyes, hoping to get some guidance.
"Between the mountains in the southwest of China, there are too many squatting owls and bowheads, and the Zhuqing can send them to Chang'an, and I will let people open and close the acquisition" Well, the more the better, the more the merrier. ”
Liu Che naturally would not favor one or the other, and quickly came up with a plan.
This squatting owl and konjac are the citrus taro and konjac, and the Lipu Qiantou that Kangxi ordered thousands of miles from the southwest to the capital is one of them
When Nanxi Yi Zhugan heard the description of the Emperor of the Han Dynasty, he was first overjoyed and confirmed that there were indeed a large number of such plants in his country, but then he showed a bitter color
Both of these plants are dry poisons and disgusting substances to them, and they do not eat even peons, let alone people
If someone else wants to, they will definitely succeed, but the object is the emperor of the Han Dynasty
At this time, they didn't have the courage to hide it, and finally pushed Yelanggan to stand up, a little embarrassed; "Your Majesty, the squatting owl and the head of the squatting owl and the head of the squirt, kissing it is also a little bad for the body
It doesn't matter, I'm useful. ”
Liu Che naturally knows that taro and squatting owl are alkaline foods, and eating too much will lead to gastrointestinal overflow.
In this pre-century era, if there was a problem with the stomach, it was not much different from suicide
And both are poisonous, especially the latter, the whole plant is poisonous, if the cow eats, it is easy to cause throat swelling and itching, but nature is so wonderful, these two alkaline foods, after being processed by humans, can become extremely nutritious konjac and even contain more than a dozen amino acids and a variety of vitamins and quantitative elements
Later, Dongying Guoji had national regulations that primary and secondary school students must have a certain amount of magic products for lunch every day
But at this point in time, whether it is the eating methods and skills of Qiantou or konjac, it is still little known.
For Liu Che, how to eat Moqian and Qiantou doesn't even need to go back
Because when he was a child, he used to eat it often
They know how to turn these two seemingly inconspicuous tubers into delicious food.
This alone can import hundreds of thousands to millions of stone of grain for Guanzhong every year
These two tuber plants are everywhere in the mountains and wilderness of today's Southwest Yi region, and no one picks them all year round It can be said that in addition to the cost of transportation, everything else is net earned
It's a win-win.
Sure enough, after hearing the words of the emperor of the Han Dynasty, the eyes of the kings of Southwest Yi lit up, and they immediately agreed, as if they were afraid that Liu Che would regret it
Ru Che also took the opportunity to finalize the relevant details of the southwest pen of the Han merchants.
This southwest trade road is initially opened, but there is no one on the road, and he is thinking about the candidate for the road in his heart
It is best to be the kind of one who is adventurous and has a certain appeal among the merchants, so that he can drive the entire merchant class Liu Che to watch them disappear outside the Hall of Tranquility. I finally couldn't help but laugh too much
With the markets of Southwest Zhi and South Vietnam, the blood Han room has opened the Taimen.
The goods of the Han room have a new slope
More importantly, through economic and financial discussions, the Han dynasty was able to gradually assimilate the rent and swallow up the South Vietnam and the Southwest Yi.
Liu Che is now convinced that if it is to be operated properly, it will not take ten years for the Han dynasty to peacefully annex Southwest Yi and South Vietnam without spending a single soldier, and complete the final unification of China after the collapse of the Qin Dynasty
The reason is very simple
Anyone who knows a little about the economy knows very well how the later generations of Midi controlled the world.
Petrodollar policy, plundering the whole world with a blank sheet of paper
Use the wealth of the world to feed the vast army of the Mi Di.
Liu Che is now playing the five-baht money policy, although the horse (King Qian's) can't catch up with the rice emperor who prints money
But the nature is also somewhat similar.
The current value of the five-baht coin is not calculated by its exquisite workmanship and copper content
Rather, it relies on the policy of grain protection price
The price of grain in Guanzhong has been maintained at about 50 yuan per stone for a long time, and the price of Yitie is also calculated in 5 baht.
This means that South Vietnam and Southwest China are separated, and if they want to buy the goods of the Han Dynasty, they must first load five baht
However, their level of coinage and technology undoubtedly limited them, and it was impossible for them to mint a large number of five-baht coins on their own.
Moreover, it is not cost-effective
The acquisition of squatting partridges and knots is a stroke of genius, which not only solved the potential food crisis for the Han family, but also tightly bound the southwestern Yi countries to the carriage of the Han Dynasty
When the southwestern countries became dependent on the economic system of the Han Dynasty, they would find out.
It's easy to get up in this carriage, but it's not easy to get down. The next day, the court meeting had just ended.
Ru Che returned to the official palace with a good mood to deal with government affairs
When he pulled out a letter from Jin Yiwei, his face suddenly changed
"Smack!" He casually threw Qin Shu on her, his eyes almost burst into flames, "What a boldness⊥ dare to disrupt the voice that came from the most fleshy, the eunuchs and palace maids outside the palace couldn't help but tremble
Since they ascended the throne today, they have never seen such anger in today's son.
While mourning in his heart, he couldn't help but quietly prick up his ears, as if he wanted to know who this inverted ghost was.
Naturally, there is nothing to be gained in the knot
In the hall, Liu Cheqiang suppressed his anger, and turned around to pick up Quan Shu
This Qin Shu does not contain one person, two people, but a whole interest group
In order to obstruct the Han family's great cause of developing the southwest, he even bought the guards of the capital to come out.
Did he insist on doing it, and these people would dare to put the knife on his neck?
Liu Che couldn't help but sneer a few times
Every emperor is sensitive and suspicious 860, and he is no exception
Although we do not fantasize that "there will always be people who want to harm us," the sense of defense is indeed much stronger
"It seems that I have been on the throne for so long, and my methods are too mild, and some people have forgotten the lessons of home.
Liu Che really knows too well the habits of this official stop, it is their instinct to see that they are inserting thorium, if you take a step back, they will be able to take ten steps to go to the doctor for the sake of interests
Why did the Son of Heaven rely on eunuchs at the end of the Han Dynasty, was he forced by the bureaucrats.
"Summoned, let the commander of the Jinyi Guard stretch into the palace to see
To deal with this group of scum, it is not very convenient to use the Inner History Yamen and the Imperial History Yamen, and only the Jinyi Guard, a spy agency, can use the propaganda officials outside the door to spread the word quickly.
After a short time, the Jinyi Wei Lian Ling Sutra Exhibition came to the gate of the palace.
Although when he handed over Mai Shu, he expected that this might happen.
But when it really happened, he couldn't help but feel a stirring in his heart, and his eyes flashed with bloodthirsty light
If this kind of case is too important, it should reflect the value and role of their brocade guard
Soon, the voice of the Son of Heaven summoned came from inside the door
As the eagle dog of the Son of Heaven, he made a big bow to worship.
Ru Che waved his hand, signaled the other party to flatten, and then went straight to the point; "Do you know the intention of my herald Yuanlai?" Shu Zhan knew that in front of this majesty, it would be superfluous to play with any kind of heart, and the messenger replied honestly.
"Do you have a plan?" Liu Che Jiji asked.
Shu Zhan didn't rush to answer this time, but brewed for a few minutes in Xiaozhong before he said respectfully; "Your Majesty wants to kill the people involved" If it is all struck, it should be like this, and if not, what should it be? Liu Yu said quietly
Shu Zhan knew that this was His Majesty the Emperor's examination of him, and he had already finished his manuscript in Xiaozhong, and he did not pause in his speech.
"If Your Majesty intends to wipe out this gang of nets, and use the clues in the hands of the ministers to investigate them along the way, the ministers dare not say that there are no fish that have slipped through the net, and eighty or ninety percent of those involved should be able to be arrested."
Speaking of this, he showed a strong confidence on his face
Especially with the strong support of Liu Che after he ascended the throne, there were thousands of people in Chang'an City alone, and the fish touched the fish to the various fish falls of the Han Dynasty
All the power in the country, both open and covert
There are nearly 10,000 people.
Just bearing the salaries of these people is a great burden, which makes Shu a little frightened when he looks at it.
That's why he's so strong.
If he can't prove the value of Jinyiwei in some things, even if Liu Che doesn't say it, the other ministers should also have opinions
When Liu Che heard this, he nodded noncommittally
Shu Zhan's heart stood up, knowing that Liu Che was dissatisfied with this plan.
There are not one or two people who enter the house this time, there are many ministers and dozens of businessmen alone, and if one size fits all, it will inevitably cause great turmoil in the society
Therefore, his words are a temptation
Only after figuring out the mind of the benefit can he let go of it
"The minister dared to guess that this move was too fierce and might not be liked by His Majesty."
"Some of the princely ministers who have entered the bureau because of profit, and there are also those who have sniped out of public intentions, Your Majesty has a unique vision, and he should be able to investigate clearly" The minister felt that he should take out one or two twists from the merchant's house and punish them vigorously, deal with the princely ministers who entered the case for profit, and teach those who were used by others and did not know it.
His words can be summed up as treating them differently, pumping two or two types, and killing and chasing. Shake its gold
Ru Che didn't speak after listening, just waved his hand to signal that the other party could go out
Shu Zhan immediately understood that there was a reward for doing this well, and he was naturally responsible for doing it badly
It is impossible for the emperor to be wrong, and if he makes a mistake, it must be the fault of the world
Out of the palace, stretch on the red light turbulence
It's time for the name of Jinyiwei to resound throughout Chang'an City.
As a secret agency, it is a failure to make children stop crying
Therefore, when Shu Zhan returned to the Jinyiwei headquarters in Beijing to convey the will of the Son of Heaven, the entire department suddenly boiled
They have been waiting for this opportunity for too long, especially those who have recently entered the industry, and when they are ready to do a lot of tickets, the Jinyi Guard's yamen is wide open.
Ti Zhi went out and launched an arrest operation based on the existing clues
Simple and brutal
All those involved in the case in Beijing were brought back to the Jinyi Guard Yamen.
There are hundreds of horsemen who rode west out of Chang'an and rushed towards Bashu.
After receiving the instruction of the Son of Heaven, they only thought that the matter was not big this time, and even if they were afraid of making it bigger
In Chang'an City, everyone looked at those who were running around, but anyone with a little political sensitivity knew that something was wrong, and they all told their children not to go out recently, and on the other hand, they asked each other what was going on, and they actually provoked especially the internal history yamen, which was about to be overwhelmed by the raging crowd.
What the? Jinyiwei is not under your control?
These powerful people in the capital don't care about this
