——

After many days, the heads of more than 30 trading companies who had been summoned came to the palace again. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

But this time is very different, each of the more than 30 trading companies has a horse team, there are several boxes on the carriage, and the wheels of the carriage are extremely heavy, and more than 30 trading companies have entered the palace with their own horse teams one after another, and the carriages that entered the palace before and after the back added up to a hundred carts.

"I've seen Director Bai."

Jingcang took the doctor in charge of managing the treasury to meet with the heads of a number of trading companies, and the more than 100 cars parked in front of him were all money.

"Doctor, all this money has been counted and deposited in the treasury." Jing Cang informed the accompanying subordinates, and then smiled and looked at everyone with a fist and said, "The king is called, you come with me." ”

This is a group of God of Wealth.

Jing Cang brought more than 30 heads of trading houses into the inner palace to meet the king, and his subordinate doctor immediately ordered his subordinates to take charge of counting the money.

The heavy boxes were carried from the carriage into the treasury, and a young man could not carry it, and it took two people to carry it.

Open ——! Doctor Shang said.

Several of his subordinates were ordered to open all the boxes one by one, and everyone present was blinded by the gold and silver in front of them.

"Straight lady thief, how much money does this cost. These businessmen are all very rich! Several subordinates looked at the shiny gold cakes in the box and subconsciously swallowed and spit, and other copper coins such as square holes were even more numerous.

Since the nationalization of the coinage, it is a felony to mint money privately. Since the coinage rights were nationalized, it was natural to replace them with a new currency, and Wei Zheng personally led the measures to reform the coinage of the country.

Today's Warring States Seven Heroes have different currencies, such as Qi and Zhao are sword coins; Yan Guo is a Ming knife coin; Korea and Wei are cloth coins, Chu is ant nose money, and Qin is half a tael coin.

The coins of the vassal states are exquisite, but they all have a common shortcoming, that is, they are not conducive to economic circulation, and they are not conducive to carrying for the common people.

Wei Zheng naturally knows that as the hub of economic circulation, the characteristics of coins must ensure that they are convenient and easy to carry, so he chose the "square hole copper coin" without any hesitation, the inner and outer circles just mean that the sky is round and the place is round, as for whether the sky is round or not, whether the earth is square, even if Wei Zheng knows these questions, he will not think about what astronomy theory is in the Warring States Period.

As the lord of a country, in the Warring States Period, Wei Zheng focused on enriching the country, strengthening the army, and consolidating his rule.

The square hole copper coin has been implemented so far, and it has become the most favorite coin of the common people and businessmen, for no other reason, the square hole copper coin is convenient to carry, and it is more conducive to circulation and trading.

Not to mention that the square hole copper coins of the country are well versed in the way of the round sky and the earth, even if the coins are ugly, no one will have the slightest discount on the love of money.

On this side, he was counting the money and goods transported by the major trading companies, and on the other side, Jing Cang left the palace with the heads of more than 30 trading companies and came to the fighter camp.

"Uh...... Director Bai, aren't we going to meet your lordship? How did you come to the barracks? A merchant who followed behind Jing Cang was puzzled and couldn't help but ask.

"Hehe, the king is in the camp." Jing Cang smiled.

Suddenly, everyone silently followed Jingcang, and along the way, they also observed the famous fighter camp of the country, and the country has changed the law for many years, especially the fighter camp, which is a "quasi-military school", has become a holy place in the hearts of the soldiers of the country.

Under the guidance of Jing Cang, everyone came to the barracks equipment storehouse, and when they entered the mansion gate, there was a huge mansion palace.

"Your Excellency, the heads of the thirty-six trading companies have all been brought and are waiting outside the door."

Wei Zheng was dressed in a regular suit, nodded and got up and walked out, seeing that a group of businessmen were about to salute, he stopped and smiled: "Just forgive the false courtesy, the goods you want are here!" ”

Wei Zheng took the lead, and everyone immediately followed, followed deep into the depths of the arsenal, the weapons were heavily guarded, and there were two armor soldiers waiting at the entrance gate of the arsenal, and when they saw the arrival of the monarch, they hurriedly hugged their fists and said: "Your Majesty——! ”

"Open ——!" Wei Zheng was concise and to the point.

A guard immediately opened the armory and took the lead in entering the armory, and after a while, the darkness inside receded as the flames of candles and candles were lit up, and everyone followed Wei Zheng into the armory.

Looking around, more than 30 wealthy businessmen instantly stared at the scene in front of them with round eyes, and they were all dumbfounded, and there was a phalanx in front of them as if they were "armor soldiers" standing in a large army, like terracotta warriors.

Of course, these are all made of wooden frames, and a full set of black and gold armor, including weapons, are all available, like a sergeant wearing armor and majestically arrayed in it.

The phalanx in the middle is very visually striking, and the entire instrument warehouse is full of instruments according to the classification of parts, and the sword or spearhead is displayed in an orderly manner.

Wei Zheng stood motionless, his hands attached to his forehead, and said with a smile: "Everyone, the widow once said, let you wait for the price of inferior goods to take away these high-quality goods, you can take away as much money as you bring today, you have no joke." ”

"Your Excellency......" said a merchant with a smile.

"Feel free to inspect the goods, confirm that they are correct, and then take them away." Wei Zheng, who understood it, raised his hand and signaled.

With the king's permission, these merchants poured into the treasury like cats smelling fish.

"Good Weapon ——!" A businessman took down a black iron sword weapon on the shelf and nodded in approval, among all the weapons and blades in these warehouses, there are no knives but all swords, of course Wei Zheng will not sell the knives, knives are the advanced equipment for the legion in the era of cold weapons, the sword weapon is mainly assassination, and the knife is slashing, and the killing area is not at the same level at all.

Located in the north of Chaoge, Dangyin City can be said to be the casting city of the country, Wei Zheng really wants to get out the Tang knife, which is the horizontal knife, the army's melee cold weapon, but he is not a professional, the real Tang knife has long been lost even in later generations, plus the poor quality of iron ore in the Central Plains and many other unfavorable factors.

But I don't have to worry about this, but the performance requirements of the horizontal knife are strict geeks, and this kind of knife can be left to the craftsman to explore.

When a group of wealthy businessmen looked at the goods with bright eyes, Wei Zheng turned his head slightly sideways and asked Jingcang: "How many instruments have the Casting Mansion in Dangyin City produced over the years?" ”

Wei Zheng estimated in his heart that the raw materials of iron ore were sufficient, and after five years of uninterrupted production, almost all the craftsmen of Weiguo gathered in the Yin City, and there should be a lot of goods.

"Your Excellency, the Foundry Mansion has produced a total of 100,000 black iron swords, 90,000 sets of black armor, 70,000 spearheads, 50,000 halberds, 20,000 bows and crossbows, and 650,000 arrows."

Wei Zheng nodded silently, after Dangyin City secretly became a casting powerhouse, it has become the only "arms base" that can mass-produce weapons in Weiguo, and the number of weapons produced over the years is already very huge, several times that of Yiyang City in South Korea, and it also benefits from the cornucopia of Anyang iron veins in Weiguo.

You must know that this number can meet the equipment requirements of 100,000 soldiers according to Wu Qi's Wei Wushu equipment standards, and without the Anyang iron ore vein, it can't be done at all.

Fortunately, the effect of the Weiguo reform is remarkable, but even so it has reached the limit, Wei Zheng is also anxious to sell these weapons stored in the treasury as soon as possible, otherwise the government will not be able to withstand the financial pressure, and if a favorable cycle cannot be formed, something will happen.

Jing Cang said: "Nearly half of the 100,000 black iron swords have been assembled for our army, and the treasury has hoarded 60,000 sets of black iron swords, 40,000 sets of black gold armor, 30,000 halberds, 8,000 bows and crossbows, 260,000 crossbows and arrows and 30,000 spearheads. ”
