Chapter 137: The helplessness of lack of money
。。。
God he meows early and returns early, the corners of Liu Yi's mouth twitched helplessly, why am I coming back, Kong Rong is so confused, next time I will see you will be Qingzhou Academy, but it is not certain whether you can see it, although Qingzhou Academy is next to Chengyang, but it is still necessary to go to the city, it is impossible to run away at such a distance, it is better to stay in the government affairs hall if it is so far away.
"Master Kong, I am leaving, Qingzhou Academy is waiting for you at any time", Liu Yi said with a smile, no matter when you Kong Rong goes to Qingzhou Academy, anyway, when Liu Yi goes back, he will announce the opening of Qingzhou Academy in the world, Beihai Taishou Kong Rong will be the dean, first borrow your reputation and then talk about it, anyway, you agree to serve as the dean.
"Well, when I deal with the affairs of Beihai, I will go to Qingzhou Academy to observe and see if the Qingzhou Academy built by Ziang can become the top college in the world", Kong Rong laughed and said, Qingzhou funded the establishment of the academy, how to say that it must be more high-end than those academies established by individual families, otherwise the academy built by your entire Qingzhou is not as good as the one built by others, and your face will be lost.
"I will definitely not disappoint Master Kong," Liu Yi said with a smile.
The advantages and disadvantages of the academy have little to do with the environment of the academy, Qingzhou Academy spends a lot of money, but it is not built with painstaking efforts, the strength of the academy depends on the talents from the academy, just like it is difficult for teachers to distinguish between high and low, but the students cultivated are famous or not, it is natural to distinguish who is more capable of teaching.
Kong Rong sent him all the way until Liu Yi disappeared from his field of vision.
"Qingzhou Academy, the Kong family only hopes to contribute to the world's education, and has no intention of getting into the world's disputes, Ziang don't make me embarrassed, I will borrow my fame, I must grasp the scale", Kong Rong looked at Liu Yi's departing back and muttered.
The Confucian family is inherited from Confucius, although it can be regarded as a famous family, but in his generation, there are no earth-shattering leaders, and the influence of the Confucian family is gradually declining, the Xun family Shuanglong, Mr. Shui Jing, all kinds of family leaders lead their families to move forward, but Kong Rong does not have that heart, the world chaos is indeed the opportunity for the family to alternate, but the replacement also means that there will be a great risk, Kong Rong dare not bet, maybe it is related to family studies, the Kong family has never been involved in disputes, and this time I don't plan to intervene, Qingzhou Academy, which can open up the wisdom of all the people, is also a big opportunity for the Confucian family, as long as they do not participate in the struggle of the princes, Kong Rong still compromised.
Liu Yi returned to the inn and happened to see Zhao Yun and Tai Shici who had packed up, and the horses were all in their hands.
"Zilong, you guys are too fast, so anxious", Liu Yi stared at the two of them standing at the door like the door god, leading the horse, expressionless.
"Ziang, go get your things, let's hurry up, maybe we can get to Chengyang today", Zhao Yun said with a smile when he saw Liu Yi coming back.
"I don't have anything, let's lead the horse, it's better to be able to rush back before tonight, it's not safe to spend the night outside," Liu Yi said with a smile, and then went to lead the horse.
When I went, I glanced at Zhao Yuntai Shi Ci suspiciously, I always felt a little weird, I was in such a hurry to go, the horses were all signed and waited at the door, did they do something, not like they usually looked.
Leading the horse and following behind Zhao Yuntai Shici, watching their faster and faster pace, Liu Yi was even more puzzled.
"Zilong, why did you go in such a hurry, did something happen", Liu Yi couldn't help but ask, he couldn't catch up with him when he walked so fast.
"Let's talk about going out of the city", Zhao Yun and Tai Shici glanced at each other, and still planned to tell Liu Yi when they went out of the city.
Soon arrived in front of the city gate, Liu Yi, Zhao Yuntai, and Shi Ci rode on their horses and rushed in the direction of Chengyang, it was indeed correct not to bring soldiers, otherwise how could it be so fast, the time wasted on the road alone was enough for them to go back and forth.
"Zilong, what's going on, how did we get it like a deserter", Liu Yi felt that the inexplicable weakness of the city was like being a thief.
"Ahem, something has happened, it's better to leave Beihai as soon as possible", Zhao Yun coughed lightly twice, and said embarrassedly, his expression was very unnatural.
"Something happened?" , Liu Yi looked at Zhao Yun suspiciously, and then looked at Tai Shici, he was also embarrassed, because he was on the horse, he couldn't see Tai Shici's face clearly, but the stiff facial expression meant that he was not very happy this time.
"Yes, Ziang, you don't have any silver on you", Zhao Yun looked at Liu Yi's expression, I was afraid that he wouldn't stop if he didn't say it, so he said helplessly.
"Silver, it's gone, I didn't bring much, the housing plus food and expenses are almost the same, and there is no silver at all in Chengyang, it's all bartering", Liu Yi said helplessly.
Dong Zhuo's dead fat man did everything in order to make money, abolishing the five plant money, the five baht money in the previous life coin market can be described as the "floor price", for a period of time, people have been trying to give the five baht money in their hands all kinds of legends, stories, trying to prove that "some five baht is not those ordinary five baht". Among them, one of the most bizarre stories is that the five-baht coin is suspected to be the product of the "Twelve Golden Men".
What are the "Twelve Golden Ones"? It is said that after Qin Shi Huang unified the six countries, someone saw 12 giants in strange costumes in Lintao, Qin Shi Huang heard that it was a sign of good luck, so he collected the captured weapons of the six countries, cast 12 huge bronze figures, and erected them at the gate of the Qin Palace. Some contemporaries have written that 10 of these 12 "golden people" were destroyed by Dong Zhuo at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty and minted into copper coins, and the remaining two were destroyed by Fu Jian, the former king of the Qin Dynasty. Some collectors seconded this, believing that these "gold people" were cast into five-baht coins and had special colors and symbols, and such five-baht coins were naturally worth different amounts because they were stained with the "fairy energy" of the "golden people".
In fact, whether the "Twelve Golden Figures" were sold and minted money has not been completely determined, because the "Three Kingdoms, Wei Shu, Dong Er, Yuan Liu Biography" that recorded this incident said that Dong Zhuo "broke the bronze man...... It is more cast as a small coin", but only said "bronze people", not "twelve bronze people", whether it is really Qin Shi Huang's "golden man", it is really impossible to make a conclusion. The so-called "two coined by Fu Jian", the source is probably the allusion in the "Guanzhong Ji" quoted in "Tongjian Justice", which said that Fu Jian pulled the two "golden people" who were exiled to Yecheng back to Chang'an to be destroyed. Not to mention whether the wild history of "Guanzhong Ji" is reliable, even if it is reliable, the record only says that the bronze man was destroyed, and it does not say that the money is minted. It is recorded in the history books that there were indeed coins in the Sixteen Kingdoms, but they were not minted in the former Qin. Obviously, it doesn't make sense to associate the five-baht coin with Fu Jian.
So what about Dong Zhuo, if Dong Zhuo really destroyed the "Twelve Golden People" and minted it into a five-baht coin to be handed down to future generations, would it be in line with his reputation for greedy money? Not at all.
In fact, those who fabricated the legendary story of "Five Baht and the Golden Man" have intentionally or unintentionally cut out the historical record: the complete record of Dong Zhuo's destruction of the "Golden Man" coinage in the "Chronicles of the Three Kingdoms" is "and the bad five-baht coin, but also the small money, the big five points, no article, the meat is good, there is no outline, and it is not grinding". Obviously, Dong Zhuo cast these coppers into something called "small money". The diameter of this "small coin" is only five cents, or 1.1545 centimeters, while the diameter of the five-baht coin is about 2.5 centimeters. "Small money" is not like five baht, there are protruding edges around it, and it has not gone through the routine polishing process after the copper coin is cast, and there is no text or symbol on the money, which is a kind of shoddy and shoddy "fake and shoddy products" that steal catties and short taels. It can be seen that it is impossible to appear in the "golden five baht", and even if these "small money" are handed down, it is difficult to distinguish.
Not only that, the history books also clearly record that Dong Zhuo not only did not cast the "golden man" into five baht coins, on the contrary, in order to get more, he also deliberately recast many five-baht coins into "small coins" - two five baht can almost be recast into 6 or 7 "small coins", this greedy fat man will not let go of this opportunity to make a fortune.
