"Caomin Wang Yan (Huanggu), see Your Majesty."

Two swarthy men dressed in silk and satin with large gold chains entered the camp and humbly saluted Yang Qi.

When he raised his hand, he had all kinds of gemstone rings on his ten fingers.

The nouveau riche atmosphere is undoubtedly revealed.

"No need to be polite, sit down and talk."

Yang Qi was wearing a regular suit, and asked the two of them to sit down with a pleasant face.

However.

After Huang Gu heard Yang Qi's words, he slipped out and collapsed to the ground, shouting in a trembling voice: "The grass people are willing to sacrifice fifty percent of the gold to honor Your Majesty......"

Wang Yan was just about to sit down, and when he heard Huang Gu's words, he was suddenly a little dazed.

When Yang Qi heard this, he was also a little stunned.

Seeing this, Huang Gu thought that Yang Qi felt that it was too little, and said with a trembling mouth: "Ninety, the grass people are willing to offer ninety percent of the gold......"

Although Wang Yan's brain reaction was not as fast as Huang Gu's, after listening to Huang Gu's reaction, he roughly guessed Huang Gu's thoughts.

Immediately, he didn't dare to sit down, and hurriedly said to Yang Qi timidly: "The grass people are also willing to offer ninety percent of the golden ......."

Yang Qi guessed why the two of them were like this, and he pretended not to know and said: "The gold was obviously transported back by the two of you from thousands of miles away, why do you want to give it to me, do you have any demands?" ”

Huang Gutou shook like a rattle, and lost his voice: "No, no ......"

Wang Yan also shook his head.

Yang Qi frowned and said: "That's weird, you are not far away, you are not afraid of hardships and dangers, and you have sent back this lot of gold to me, and you don't even have any requirements." What are you trying to do? ”

Huang Gu and Wang Yan looked bitter, lowered their heads and said nothing.

Yang Qi suddenly grinned, "Okay, get up." I won't tease you, I understand your thoughts. When you suddenly have such incredible wealth, and then you are summoned by me, you will inevitably think that I am greedy for your money.

In order to save his life, he gave most of it for free.

I can tell you that I am not a coveter of other people's money.

Ten ships of gold are indeed an astonishing wealth, but I don't care about it yet. ”

Huang Gu and Wang Yan raised their heads and looked at Yang Qi with a stunned expression, but they didn't move, obviously not believing Yang Qi's words.

Yang Qi glanced at the two of them and said with a sigh: "I established the Yan Kingdom to let the people live comfortably. The country of Yan has the laws of the country of Yan, and the two of you have not violated the laws of the country of Yan, even if you are rich and rival the country, I will not touch you.

If I lose my trust to the people of the world for a little money, and make the law of Yan Kingdom a joke, then who else in this world will believe me? ”

Huang Gu and Wang Yan glanced at each other, they still didn't quite believe Yang Qi's words.

Others may think that the two of them are too cautious.

But no one knew what they had experienced on the way back.

They still understand the truth that wealth is not revealed, and if it is not a last resort, they will not transport this gold to the port city in a big way.

Yang Qi saw that the two of them were still cautious, he pondered for a moment and asked, "Is it possible that there are many people along the way who covet your batch of gold, which makes you rumorous?" ”

Huang Gu hesitated for a moment and nodded.

"It's not easy to push you to this point, and you can still bring the gold back."

Yang Qi sighed, and then said, "That's it, I just wanted to use you, so I helped you solve this trouble." I am the master, and I will deposit your gold into the Yan Country Money Bank.

With the backing of hundreds of thousands of soldiers of my Great Yan Kingdom, no one wants to covet this money.

I will personally write a deposit slip of the imperial book, stamp it with the jade seal of the country, and send it to you.

When you deposit and withdraw money, you only need to take the documents to Yanguo Money Bank. ”

Huang Gu and Wang Yan glanced at each other.

Yang Qi can use the seal of the heirloom jade seal as a guarantee, which means that what Yang Qi said is true.

Although the two still had doubts, they had no better way.

I could only nod my head and approve of it.

Yang Qi continued: "Later, I will send my personal entourage to follow you, count the gold on the ship, and then hand it over to Yan Guo Qian Bank, and after the handover is completed, my personal entourage will give you the documents. ”

Huang Gu and the others saluted together, "Thank you, Your Majesty......"

Ten boats of gold were properly disposed of, and Huang Gu and the others were completely relaxed.

"I've hurt you......"

Yang Qi's words of relief made Huang Gu and the others unable to hold back any longer, and tears flowed down their cheeks.

Wang Yan opened the conversation and cried: "Your Majesty, you don't know how bitter we are. Our brother, who was in this port city at the time, heard that the Mauryan Dynasty had gold.

For the sake of wealth, we decided to fight for it.

So I got two boatloads of silk porcelain and went down the coast.

After floating on the sea for half a year, we arrived at the Mauryan Empire.

More than 20 brothers died at sea.

After arriving in the Mauryan Dynasty, we found that the rumors we heard in the port city were true, and the Mauryan Dynasty was indeed full of gold.

Our brother tried his best to get fifteen ships of gold, and hired more than 8,000 people from the Mauryan Empire to help us transport the gold back.

Fifteen ships of gold, a great fortune.

But this great wealth has become a disaster for our brothers.

As soon as our brothers come to shore, whoever knows that our brothers have this gold will do everything they can to scavenge it from us.

There are those who rob openly, those who steal secretly, and those who chase after them in sea ships.

Nearly 7,000 people died at the hands of thieves, and five boatloads of gold were robbed by thieves.

If it weren't for the fact that we ran into our Yan State Navy in the waters of Dongtou Island, maybe our brother would have died at sea. ”

Wang Yan was crying, and the corners of Yang Qi's mouth twitched.

It's not that he doesn't have compassion, but listens to what this thing means, and they are not good.

Two ships of porcelain and silk, can be exchanged for fifteen ships of gold, and eight thousand people?

Obviously not.

So how did so much gold and 8,000 men come from?

It's nothing more than four words.

"Do I know what you did before you went to sea?"

Yang Qi couldn't help but ask.

When Wang Yan heard this, he hurriedly put away his tears and closed his mouth.

Huang Gu smiled bitterly, and scolded in his heart, Wang Yan didn't say it when he should say it, and he said it nonsense when he shouldn't.

He took a step forward slightly and said with a wry smile: "Back to Your Majesty's words, our brother once fell into the grass in the mountains, and after being exterminated by General Yang, he was sent to the south for the people.

When His Majesty was supporting merchants in the South, my brother and I saw an opportunity and started a small business.

Later, he followed the grain transportation team to the port city, and after hearing about the Mauryan Dynasty, he sold his family property and went to the Peacock Dynasty to fight. ”

When Yang Qi heard this, he pointed at the two of them with a smile, "I didn't expect you two to be reckless, no wonder two ships of goods can get fifteen ships of gold, and in the Peacock Dynasty, there are many things that hurt the heavens and reason, right?" ”

Huang Gu and the others were stunned, and hurriedly pleaded guilty in fright, "The grass people deserve death for their crimes......"

Yang Qi waved his hand and said: "Okay, what are you doing outside of Dayan, I don't care, as long as you don't act as a traitor in Dayan, you are the obedient people under my rule."

Now that I've said that, I won't hide it from you.

I have come to you today not to covet your gold and silver, but to have one thing that I need your help to do. ”

Huang Gu and the others were stunned again.

The emperor asked them to do something.

It's something they never dreamed of.

In those rumors, those who run errands for the emperor are all Qin errands, and they have great power.

The two were overjoyed and said, "Please give your Majesty's orders." ”

Yang Qile said: "You two are also excited, I have always been eclectic in selecting talents, and I don't look at my background." Go back to Peng Pai and go and make up for the identity of an inspector for you. ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

"Alright, let's get down to business."

Yang Qizheng said: "Look at your clothes, I'm afraid that after you got the gold and silver, you didn't go to spend time drinking." My errand for you is to spend time drinking and drinking.

You can play however you want, but you must remember when someone asks you for information.

The two of you are from Cangzhou, and the reason why you were able to get such a large amount of gold is because when you were a child, you found a broken stone tablet in Cangzhou, and you are not allowed to mention a word if you are superfluous.

Do you understand? ”

Huang Gu and the two glanced at each other, quickly entered the role, and saluted Yang Qi together, "Nuo~"

Yang Qi left the two of them to have a light meal, and it was not until after night fell that Peng Pai left the camp with them.

Night.

The shopkeeper of Yan Guo Qian Bank, led a large number of people, lit torches, counted the gold on ten ships overnight, and sent heavy troops to escort it to the treasury of Yan Guo Qian Bank.

Since its establishment, Yanguo Money Bank has been tepid, far inferior to Nanguo Money Bank.

The branches of the Nanguo Money Bank are now all over the world, but the Yan Guo Money Bank is still circling around in the sixteen states of Yanyun.

However, with this batch of huge gold deposits, Yanguo Money Bank will be able to spread all over the country in a short period of time, and even spread to all countries, directly catching up with Nanguo Money Bank.

Therefore, the shopkeeper of Yanguo Qian Bank looked at the two people of Huang Gu as if he was looking at his ancestors.

And Huang Gu and the others, after listening to the reaction of the shopkeeper of Yan Guoqian Bank, confirmed Yang Qi's words.

Yang Qi really didn't look down on their money.

A hanging heart of theirs was finally completely let go.

……

Following.

Huang Gu and the others were freed from the shackles of gold, and they no longer needed to stay in the harbor.

Dressed like their nouveau riche, they entered the port city.

There was a rumor about ten boats of gold, which had already been rumored in the port city, and people with good intentions had already noticed the two of them.

So after the two of them entered the city, they were instantly surrounded by brokers from all walks of life.

The two were not polite, and followed the brokers from all walks of life to squander a lot of money in the port city.

And just when Huang Gu and the others squandered their money.

Yang Qi took the hundred officials and slowly entered the Yan Country Money Bank.

Both inside and outside the Yan State Money Bank were heavily guarded.

In the broadest open space of Yan Guoqian Bank, there is a mountain of gold.

The guys in the money bank are pushing carts, transporting gold to the warehouse.

"Look, there's really a mountain of gold......"

The huge mountain of gold is particularly dazzling in the sun.

The officials surrounded Jinshan, and they couldn't pull out their eyes.

Some people swallowed saliva without a breath, and some people approached Jinshan step by step.

With such a huge wealth, they can only see this time in their lives.

Almost all people have a kind of thinking about why Jinshan is not his place.

Yang Qi just crossed his arms and watched a group of officials surround Jin Shanliu.

Half a day.

Among them, the official with perseverance forced himself to come back to his senses, and then in Yang Qi's smiling eyes, he said with a slight straight face: "Your Majesty, if so much gold can be used for people's livelihood, I believe that the lives of the people will be doubled." ”

Yang Qiba clicked his mouth and echoed: "Some corrupt officials and corrupt officials can also follow the mouth full of oil. ”

The expression on the official's face froze, and he coughed dryly: "There are only a few corrupt officials and corrupt officials, Your Majesty only needs to send capable ministers to supervise this matter, and be sure to use every penny of money on Baixin." ”

"Yes, yes, this money is used on the people, and the national strength of my Great Yan Kingdom will increase several times in a very short period of time."

“……”

Someone chimed in.

Yang Qi sighed and said, "I want to too!" But the gold is not mine, nor is it from the treasury. It belongs to Huang Gu and Wang Yan.

And this gold was not obtained by the two of them as traitors.

According to the laws of my Great Yan Kingdom, I can only watch with red eyes. ”

Yang Qi glanced at the hundred officials and said in a low voice, "Do you want me to break the law that you can't take the people's interests privately?" ”

The officials were stunned when they heard this, and hurriedly shook their heads.

All other laws can be broken, but this one cannot.

After all, they are the richest people in the Great Yan Kingdom.

If there is no protection of this law, Yang Qi will be able to seize the wealth of the people, and maybe even they will be cleaned up.

"Your Majesty, it is better to hand over Huang and Wang to the ministers, and the ministers will definitely let them obediently give these family wealth for the use of the country."

An official suggested.

Yang Qi glanced at him deeply, remembered him in his heart, and said lightly: "I never mind that there are people in the Great Yan Country who can be rich and rival the country. As long as the money earned by one's own ability, every cent is protected by the law of Dayan.

No one can invade without recklessness, including me. ”

After a pause, Yang Qi said: "We have already seen Jinshan, which proves that Peng Pai's words are not wrong." It's a pity that Jinshan already has a master, and we can't take it by force. Returning to Yanjing tomorrow, there are still many government affairs waiting to be handled. ”

The officials nodded perfunctorily, one by one thoughtfully.

Surprisingly, no one took this opportunity to mention the matter of opening the imperial examination.

This made Yang Qi feel a lot better.

This shows that his plan worked.

The impact of Jinshan attracted their attention and made them forget about the reopening of the imperial examination for a while.

As long as we add another fire and completely attract the attention of the officials and the common people, we can temporarily stabilize Confucianism, cultivate talents for several universities, and gain more time.

After returning to the camp.

Yang Qi hurriedly sent someone to see Huang Gu and the others, after all, the two of them were novices, and they handed over an important task to them, and Yang Qi still had to help them check it in the back.

However, judging by the feedback received.

The two of them did a good job.

In just one morning, there were rumors of Cangzhou and stone monuments in the port city.

Even the people of Ji Min have begun to buy the stone monument in Cangzhou at a high price.
