Chapter 59: Vassal's List
In the second year of Zhenguan, which is also the first day of March in the first year of Yuanhua, the snow in Liaodong has begun to melt, and the breath of early spring has arrived.
The night was a bit bleak, and a very narrow hook hung high in the sky, scattering thousands of feet of silver light.
"Chang'an's snow should have melted now, right?" Yang Wenhua looked at the west and muttered.
Yuanhua, this is the country name set by Yang Wenhua's group of people yesterday after discussion.
It is made of the last word of the names of Cui Yuan and Yang Wenhua, and it also has the beginning of the dynasty called Yuan, and the gorgeous and colorful dynasty of the dynasty is called Yuanhua, which means Yuanhua.
The name of Yuanhua is established, which also means that all the preparations have been completed, and tomorrow will be the founding ceremony of Yuanhua.
Envoys from Silla, Baekje, and Goguryeo had arrived, and even Fusang had sent them to watch the ceremony.
Ben also invited officials from the Tang Dynasty, a neighbor to the West, to watch the ceremony, but was refused, on the grounds that the foreign minister did not have the permission of the sovereign and it was inconvenient to establish diplomatic relations with other countries.
"Now Yuanhua is in ruins, and he only has the capital of a Chinese person to be a brother, and in the face of many things, he only feels a thousand things, can't the virtuous brother stay?"
"Alas, I can't stay, my little brother promised her to return when the snow melts, but now I'm afraid that she has already missed the appointment, how can she keep delaying?"
Yang Wenhua smiled and let out a sigh after taking a sip of spirits.
"Now that Yuanhua has formed an alliance with the three southern kingdoms, as long as he goes to the Tang Dynasty after the founding of the country and hands over the letter of proclamation, everything will be fine, and then there are all the virtuous people to help, so why should my brother worry?"
After Yang Wenhua finished speaking, he seemed to remember something, and after groping around his body a few times, he took out a blank piece of paper and handed it to Cui Yuan.
Cui Yuan curiously took the paper full of dense small characters, and asked curiously, "What is this?" ”
Yang Wenhua raised his eyebrows and spit out two words.
"Bills."
"Bills?"
Cui Yuan opened the white paper suspiciously and looked at it, which densely listed how much a body armor is, how many pieces in total, how much a sapper shovel is, and how much is a pair of sunglasses~~.
One body armor alone is 1,000 taels of gold, more than 4,000 pieces are 4,000,000 taels, plus sapper shovels, and other bits and pieces, a total of more than 7 million taels.
Cui Yuan was silent for a long time with the bill, then handed the bill back to Yang Wenhua, and asked leisurely: "Is it okay for the virtuous brother to make up a whole number of 10 million taels for the brother?" ”
"Brother, what do you mean by that? Could it be that the younger brother's bid is too high? ”
Cui Yuan shook his head and said sincerely: "With the magic of the virtuous brother's things, the price is very real, and there is no intention of shirking it for the brother."
I just feel that now Yuanhua is in ruins, why not give some strange things to help Yuanhua take off as soon as possible.
As for this bill, what does the virtuous brother like, whether it is the beauty of the mountains and rivers or others, as long as Yuanhua has it, the virtuous brother just opens his mouth, and he has nothing to refuse for the brother. ”
Yang Wenhua took the bill, and in the fire in front of him, he looked at Cui Yuan, who was pretending to be generous, and was silent.
Anyway, I can't afford to pay it back, so borrow more, and then whatever you want, you can do whatever you want, this Nima is too lazy to go out of the new realm.
"What else does my brother need?"
"I don't know."
Cui Yuan shook his head first, then thought for a while, and said: "What Yuanhua is in urgent need of now is money, although there is a lot of copper and iron, but it takes a lot of time to make money, and the salary offered by the virtuous brother to the officials and generals is extremely high.
Now for my brother, I don't need more money to send it, so now Yuanhua is very exact, and as for other things, I really don't know for my brother.
Brother Xian felt that Yuanhua lacked something, and he made it up according to 10 million taels of gold, Yuanhua was never lazy, at most, it took a little longer to repay the debt. ”
Yang Wenhua was really speechless this time, how long is it a little longer, a hundred years or two hundred years, I'm afraid this account will not come back, glanced at Cui Cha who was smirking at the corner of his mouth next to him, Yang Wenhua said angrily: "Without me, there is nothing."
In fact, Yuanhua is not short of money, since there is copper and iron, it is enough to make money by himself, in fact, money does not have to be made so finely.
As long as the goods are genuine, others are willing to accept them, so the brother can completely turn a drop of water into money. ”
"Oh, what does it mean to make money?" Cui Yuanda asked with interest, "Brother Xian, please tell me in detail." ”
Yang Wenhua explained while gesturing: "As long as you make some funnels with clay first, add a frame with clay on top, then pour molten iron and copper water into it, and put a basin below."
Naturally, you will get iron beads and copper beads of the same size, with the quality of Yuanhua copper and iron, such copper and iron beads are not afraid of no one accepting, after all, if you collect these beads, you can directly refine various utensils.
And the money made of these beads does not need to be priced, and the market will naturally give it a matching value.
In this way, the brother also saves the trouble of selling these copper and iron, as long as the copper and iron are distributed as a salary every month.
And don't be afraid that this money will be collected and backlogged in the hands of others, because there is a constant flow of new money, and the old money will definitely rust and depreciate. ”
Copper and iron in this era are definitely hard currency, due to process problems, the iron of this era is not only not guaranteed in quality, but also the output is extremely low, which can not meet the needs of society at all.
And the iron produced by Yang Wenhua's blast furnace built by Yuanhua can definitely be marketed as long as it enters the market, and even Datang will definitely collect Yuanhua iron.
This is also the reason why Yang Wenhua chose the capital of Yuanhua here in Xincheng, because there are too many mineral deposits here, as long as Cui Yuan can control Xincheng, he can completely control the entire Yuanhua.
……
The next day, Cui Yuan was dressed in a gown and wore a high crown, and sat on a nine-story platform with extraordinary dignity, with two palace ladies standing on the side, ten behind him each holding swords, guns, swords, halberds, and guards with different weapons guarding behind.
Yang Wenhua is also dressed in a black robe with wide robes and large sleeves on the lower left, Cui Cha is wearing a yellow robe on the lower right, all of them are seated, and below them are standing important ministers in court clothes.
The high platform is surrounded by 500 big-headed ghost troops, the periphery is officials at all levels, and there are some foreign ministers from various countries who watch the ceremony, and the outermost periphery is a phalanx composed of 30,000 neat and 30,000 Han people leather armor army.
Earlier, Cui Yuan had led everyone to read the prayer for worshipping the heavens, and everyone had already called for a thousand years old, and they had seen Cui Yuan, and now it was Yang Wenhua's turn to reward the ministers.
Yang Wenhua first raised his head and communicated with Cui Yuan, and after Cui Yuan nodded in agreement, he got up and walked to a table with three list texts.
"This is the list of vassals, those who are on the list are ministers, in addition to many rewards, the punishment can be reduced by one degree in case of crime, and those who are not on the list are officials."
After speaking, Yang Wenhua picked up a silk silk list with the word "government" written on it, and read: "Cui Wu stepped forward to listen to the seal, and at the behest of the king, Cui Wu is now the chief of the political hall."
Give one side of the political seal, all Yuanhua political affairs are led by Er, in the future, all Yuanhua political documents, must be stamped with the political seal to take effect, I hope that you will treat all political affairs in the future, can be cautious, don't make mistakes. ”
