Chapter 410: Gift
"How do you know I'm back?"
It was Da Da Hai and Ying Ying who came to greet them, and almost all of the friends that Tianyou knew in the royal city came.
Lu Meng smiled and said: "Everyone is back, but you are the only one who has not been there, Sister Yingying is not at ease, so she has people specially guarding the city gate." As soon as you entered the city, we received word that it would have been there long ago if someone hadn't delayed it. β
After Lu Meng finished speaking, he squinted at the huge sea, and the latter scratched his head embarrassedly, obviously there was something in it, but the two of them didn't say Tianyou and didn't ask.
"Are you all gold bricks behind you?" At this time, a man dressed as an official came over, looked at the carriage behind Tianyou and asked.
Tianyou glanced at Ying Ying with some doubts, and the latter hurriedly explained to him: "This is Lord Yin Lu Yin, the history of Zhisu. β
Tianyou hurriedly clasped his fists and saluted, but the latter directly pressed his hand, pulled him to the side of the car excitedly and asked excitedly: "How much?
"144 blocks. God bless answered honestly.
"Hahahaha, God bless, your name is really not wrong. God bless me Daqin!hahaha......" Yin Lu laughed as he said and went to greet those coachmen in turn, causing a group of coachmen to kneel down in fear. Usually when I see the county Chengdu, I already feel that he is a big official, although I don't know how big this internal history is in front of me, but I just heard that the one next to me is the ninth princess. And the official who can follow the princess out, the official function is too small? But this one still doesn't have the consciousness of his own official, and he actually came to greet them. In Yin Lu's opinion, this may be that he is close to the people, but in the eyes of the coachmen, this is scary!
In fact, Yin Lu can achieve the position of Jiuqing, naturally he is not an idle person, and he will never be so Meng Lang. It's really too excited this time, and I don't know how to vent it, which makes Tianyou and the group of drivers a little overwhelmed.
Although the ten countries of this Divine Continent are all human kingdoms, the official systems in them are different. In particular, the official system of the Qin State is still the most special kind, so although Tianyou is nominally a member of the Qin State, he actually does not know the official system of the Qin State very well. If he knew what this Yin Lu was for, he would never be so confused.
The terms of reference may sound inconspicuous at first glance, but when you think about it, you will find ...... This is simply a bull among cattle people. In fact, the internal history of the Qin State is the supreme leader of the national warehousing system. At first glance, it may sound like a small head in charge of a warehouse, but in fact, people's energy is simply boundless.
First of all, he was not only in charge of the storage of grain, gold, silver, and treasures throughout the country, but also responsible for supervising the use of these things. In other words, this is basically equivalent to concentrating the work of the Ministry of Finance, the Food Bureau, and the National Reserve Bureau into one person.
And that's not all.
There is also a directly subordinate agency under Zhisu Neishi, and the names of officials in it will be crowned with the word "Pingzhun", such as "Pingzhun Order". And the specific work of this part is probably equivalent to the current price bureau.
If we put all these things together and think about them again, we will find that the scope of this authority for the management of the Su Dynasty is simply terrifying! As soon as money and food are grasped, who will bypass his management in his life? Therefore, don't look at this person's lack of presence in the court, in fact, his official position is terrifying to death. Ranking Jiuqing is not just talking.
Taking advantage of where Yin Lu was going crazy alone, Ying Ying took the time to introduce Tianyou to his official position, and then Tianyou understood.
Although the gold bricks will eventually enter the Taimiao, they are not under the direct jurisdiction of this Yin Lu, but the problem is that when the gold bricks play a role, the most direct embodiment is the bumper harvest of money and grain. Therefore, if you want to say who will benefit the most after the gold bricks are put into storage, it must be this Yin Lu.
God bless them to move back so many gold bricks in one go this time, which means that Yin Lu can sit back and wait for the king's commendation next year. After all, the increase in BRICS, the bumper grain harvest and the fullness of the treasury are all inevitable phenomena, and these are all under his jurisdiction. When the time comes, the king will be happy when he sees this result, and as soon as the king is happy, won't he be more developed?
The happy Yin Lu finally reined in after going crazy for a while, but when he came back, he was still smiling, and he felt that the whole person was fluttering.
With so many people, plus the carriages and onlookers, the jam here will affect the traffic, so Ying Ying quickly beckoned everyone to return to Baifu, and on the other side, Ying Hai, who was holding a banquet to celebrate, also received the news. The officials of his department were still elated one moment ago, and they felt that they had finally pressed the officials of Yingying's department, but the next moment they were all sitting on wax.
The commendation edict has already been posted, and it is too late to take it down at this time, and the king will definitely not let them do this. He couldn't afford to lose that man.
However, not withdrawing the edict of commendation means that the reward should be distributed in accordance with the method of commendation written by the indoctrination.
Originally, the credit of the Yinghai family was the greatest, and the rewards were all theirs, so naturally it was fine. But now the situation has reversed, and the number of gold bricks in Yingying's series has suddenly surpassed, which means that the rewards will go to Yingying. In this case, the richer the reward written on the edict, the greater the gap between them and Ying Ying, how can they bear this? What can they do if they can't bear it? They had read the edict in advance, and the king had sent someone to ask them for their opinions at that time. This is what they have expressed their support, and now they are suddenly going to overturn the case, why are you having fun playing as a king?
"This, this, this...... What a good thing that is!" a Yinghai official sat down in his seat in a daze, then dropped his glass and burst into tears. Although the others did not react as badly as this one, they also had dark clouds on their faces.
"Ying Ying!" Ying Hai, who was sitting at the head of the banquet, slapped the armrest next to the soft couch angrily, and slapped a piece off directly. However, blood immediately flowed from his own hand, and the corners of his mouth twitched in pain. Although he also has a certain amount of cultivation on his body, he is not a genius like Ying Ying, and he has not been able to join Zixiao Palace, so his cultivation is not very high. Smashing the handrail was also an angry blow, but then it immediately suffered.
The people under Yinghai here are gloomy, but there is a lot of joy in the White Mansion.
The gold bricks brought back by Tianyou have been concentrated in one place with the gold bricks sent back before. More than 300 gold bricks are piled up in a heap. Ying Ying sent someone to inform King Qin of the situation here, and then Lu Tianzheng and the others all knew about it, and they all came to Baifu to see the gold bricks, and after reading it, they ran back to King Qin with a smile and described how the more than 300 gold bricks were piled up together and how spectacular.
Of course, King Qin has seen more gold bricks, after all, there are more than 20,000 pieces piled up in the Taimiao. However, the value of the gold bricks is immeasurable, and even if he earns an extra piece of Qin, he will be very happy, let alone move back more than 300 pieces at a time. So listening to the people below describing the appearance of the gold bricks to him, King Qin was also very happy.
Although the Yinghai family is extremely unwilling to face the current situation, things will not be diverted because of some people's thoughts. After a night, the mission of the National Games officially ended, and the monks of all countries had to immediately abandon the mission and withdraw to the country, except for the gold bricks that they had already obtained. Qin Guotai Temple did not lose a single gold brick this year, so he did not send anyone out to chase the gold bricks, so on February 1, that is, the first day after the end of the national sports mission, King Qin summoned all the monks and soldiers who participated in the mission in the palace city.
Although the officials of the Yinghai family had ugly expressions, the monks and soldiers below were rejoicing. Whether it belongs to the Yingying or Yinghai series, there will be rewards for participating in the national sports mission anyway, so the monks and soldiers are very happy, the difference is only the degree of excitement.
There were so many people who participated that it was impossible to sit in a normal place, so the celebration was held in the square in front of the main hall of Miyagi. However, there were some differences between the monks and the soldiers who participated. The monks were all at the foot of the steps in front of the main hall of the palace, while the soldiers lined up farther behind the Jade Belt River. Although he could barely see King Qin in front of the main hall, he could only vaguely see a small figure. However, the soldiers didn't care about this, and being personally summoned by the king to participate in the celebration was enough to go back and blow for a year. Not to mention that many of them are not participating in this kind of event for the first time. After all, there is a national sports mission once a year, and as long as the total number of BRICS increases after the end of this year's mission, there will be such a large celebration.
At the beginning of the celebration, the king of Qin came out to speak, of course, the main thing was that the middle attendants were reciting the holy decree, and the king of Qin only said a few words. Then all the staff mourned for the battle-damaged personnel, there were palace maids and chamberlains to bring wine to the officials, monks and soldiers below, and the king of Qin himself also held a bronze statue, first poured on the ground to pay tribute to the sacrificed monks and Qin soldiers, and then each took another cup and drank it himself, put down the cup, and the memorial was over.
After the previous scene event, the official content will begin. The first is the dedication of gold bricks.
Xiao Bihe had already offered gold bricks in Yinghai's name outside the city before, but that was a special case. Generally speaking, after the gold bricks are transported back, they will indeed be sent directly to Taimiao, but if it is not long before the end of the national sports mission, then the leaders of the team, that is, Ying Ying and Ying Hai, the crown princes, have the right to decide not to send them to Taimiao first, and they can wait for their gold bricks to be gathered and then concentrated at this celebration after the end of the national sports mission.
Of course, it's okay to offer it in advance, and you can give it again during the celebration, but it's a gloomy wood that is processed into the size of a gold brick instead of a real gold brick, anyway, just match the quantity and make a look. Anyway, the gold bricks are also black, and they really look like real gold bricks if you don't weigh them.
The first to come up was not Yinghai, nor Yingying. The offering of gold bricks came in order of quantity. Get the lower number in front of the row and the more in the back. Not everyone can donate the gold bricks, but only the team leader.
The first to come up this time was Ying Yang, the twelve princes of King Qin, who were much younger than Ying Hai and Ying Ying, and looked like a half-grown child. This time, I came up respectfully with a tray, and it was quite surprising that there was not 1 on the tray, but 3 gold bricks. Of course, this one is made of gloomy wood, not the real thing. Otherwise, a teenager won't be able to hold it. Even now these three pieces of wood are tired enough for him to choke, and he trembles when he walks. King Qin was distressed, and walked directly to the edge of the steps to wait, and as soon as Yingyang stepped on the last step, he took it directly.
After offering the gold bricks, the twelve princes said a few words of blessing, like a toast at the New Year's party table. Of course, this ceremony is generally about wishing the country how it is, not about personal blessings.
King Qin patted Yingyang's shoulder with satisfaction, and then let him go down. Then Yinghai offered gold bricks. There are a lot of people on his side, even if he uses wood instead of him, he can't hold it alone, so he can only let a few chamberlains carry a tray behind him and follow him up the jade steps.
The gold bricks offered by Yinghai are not 143, but 147. Xiao Bihe's part was cut off from Tianyou, and some of his subordinates actually went to the Tang Kingdom and joined forces with Yingying's people to rob the Taimiao. However, later, because he wanted to support Xiao Bihe and compete with the monks of the Song Kingdom for the gold bricks, he withdrew these people, and directly caused Yingying's people to almost fall on their heels in the Tang Kingdom. Fortunately, Tianyou solved a large number of Dharma holders of the Tang Kingdom in advance, which led to an imbalance in the power of the Tang Kingdom monks, so there was no major problem.
However, although he withdrew from the Tang State mission in advance, Yinghai's subordinates still brought out a few gold bricks, so the number of his contributions was 147 instead of only 143.
At this time of the year, it is not a shame to be able to offer three or five gold bricks, if there are more than a dozen, it is stable, and if there are more than 20, it is worth boasting. For example, if it was a case of offering more than 100 yuan in one breath this time, if it was placed in previous years, King Qin would definitely hold Yinghai's hand and praise everyone, and maybe he would hold another small banquet for him after the big banquet to celebrate and commend him.
This year, however, it was not possible. King Qin already knew that Ying Ying had brought back more than 300 gold bricks, and with this base as the foundation, the 100 or so pieces in Ying Hai's hand instantly became less dazzling. Fortunately, King Qin was not so excited that he ignored Yinghai regardless of it, and he still did a very decent job.
When Yinghai walked onto the high platform in front of the main hall, King Qin immediately made a happy appearance, but this happiness was deliberately made. After all, after experiencing Ying Ying's stimulation of the three hundred gold bricks, it is indeed difficult for King Qin to show any obvious emotional fluctuations to the hundred or so gold bricks. The emperors' qi cultivation skills have always been excellent, not to mention that there is already more exciting news to be laid.
In the face of such a King of Qin, although Yinghai was helpless, he could only offer gifts step by step.
Although King Qin was calm, he did not forget to encourage Yinghai. Taking off the coiled dragon bi on his waist, King Qin personally stepped forward to hang up Yinghai, and then patted him on the chest. "Wu'er has grown up, but you still have to remember to guard against arrogance and rashness, and always remember that you are the prince of my Great Qin. β
"Yes, Father. The sons and daughters must remember the teachings. β
King Qin nodded kindly, "Well, you go down." β
Yinghai saluted again, then turned and walked down the steps. The Zhongchang attendant standing beside King Qin waited until Yinghai returned to his position, and began to chant loudly that the ninth princess Yingying was offering gold bricks.
"...... Uproar"
As soon as Ying Ying appeared, there was a commotion, not that Ying Ying herself had any problems, but the long list of female soldiers behind her.
This was the idea given by Tianyou, and he didn't let the chamberlains or guards carry the gold bricks out, because although there would be a lot of them, it wouldn't feel too intuitive. So Tianyou came up with such a bad idea, just taking advantage of Bai Qi's identity convenience, he selected three hundred and four female wolf soldiers with a good image and similar height from the wolf soldiers, arranged for someone to take them to wash and dress up overnight, and put on a more fitting and decorative ceremonial armor, and then just one person came up with a tray carrying gold bricks.
In fact, Tianyou originally planned to let the palace maids come, but in the end, considering the weight of the gold bricks, even if one piece per person, it would probably be difficult for those palace maids to come out. So in the end, I had no choice but to change to wolf soldiers. I didn't expect the effect to be unexpectedly good.
These wolf soldiers are all female soldiers, and they basically have some cultivation foundation. Although it is a wild road, after all, he is a person who has absorbed aura, and his appearance will not lose too many points. After washing, there is no need to apply grease and powder, and the hair is well groomed and paired with a specially modified shiny silver armor already looks amazing.
With the thoughts of the natives of the Shenzhou Continent, they can't think of this, after all, it's just a gold brick, why is it so complicated? Isn't it over to find a few people to carry it up?
But Tianyou doesn't think so. He's from Earth. Think about those exhibitions in my hometown, not to mention any auto shows and comic exhibitions, they even started to make a group of girls in camouflage hot pants stand on the tank and jump dying. If he could forget how to advertise his products, he must be an alien.
Although the gold bricks are not a commodity, the purpose is almost the same, that is, to attract people's attention, to give King Qin and those officials, monks and soldiers below an intuitive visual impact. Of course, the first shock should be a large group of beauties, but after calming down a little, everyone will think "so many people, one gold brick per person, how many gold bricks must be there".
Bai Qi and Lu Tianzheng didn't know Tianyou's arrangement, so they didn't have a chance to object, although Ying Ying and Bai Bingyu knew it, they also felt strange, but they didn't object to Tianyou's suggestion. Because from the beginning of knowing Tianyou, his advice never seemed to be wrong. So this time, Ying Ying and they still chose to believe in Tianyou.
Looking at the faint commotion below, Ying Ying already knew how big the reaction was to everyone. As for the effect, it depends on the situation after that. But Ying Ying didn't stop there. 304 wolf soldiers formed a phalanx of 18 columns and 17 rows, because there were two people missing, so the center of the front row just vacated the position of two people, and then Ying Ying led the phalanx by a distance of one body to form a leader.
As soon as this phalanx came out, it was the first to grab people, and the rear phalanx stood under the jade steps in front of the main hall. Ying Ying turned around and took a tray from the wolf soldier, walked up the steps, and then knelt down on one knee in front of King Qin, holding the tray high above her head.
"The son gave a gift to his father. In this national sports mission, Erchen led a team to sweep the Three Kingdoms, fortunately, and transported back a total of 304 gold bricks, all of which are less than his father. I wish Daqin prosperity and strength, and the military is mighty. β
"Good, good, good. She deserves to be my beloved daughter. Good. Hurry up and stand beside my father to watch the ceremony. β
With a click, the Panlongbi, which had been held by Yinghai in his hand, was crushed. The cracked corners cut through Yinghai's palm, and blood dripped to the ground, but Yinghai didn't react, just stared blankly at Yingying who was standing half a step behind his father's side on the high platform.
The area in front of the main hall was originally designed for large ceremonies, and the position and angle of the surrounding buildings, including the surrounding walls, were specially designed to gather echoes and make the people standing on the high platform in front of the main hall hear clearly without speaking loudly.
It was precisely because of this ingenious design that the people below also heard what King Qin had just said. Of course, Yinghai, which is not far away, is also included.
Thinking that Ying Ying could stay by her father's side and stand side by side with her father, but she only got a piece of jade, this gap made Ying Haiqi's abdominal colic unbearable, so that she was so angry that she actually crushed the jade bi that her father had just given.
This piece of jade is not a treasure, nor is it a personal item that King Qin really likes, but it was specially selected according to today's needs. After all, who offered gold bricks today, and the specific number of them were reported in advance, and King Qin also thought about how to reward them in advance according to the situation. And this piece of jade was chosen to be brought temporarily for Yinghai. It seems that King Qin gave him his favorite things, but in fact, it is not like that at all.
Of course, this jade is not actually a reward in itself, but an affirmation. Just like Ying Ying, she didn't even get anything, she was just arranged by King Qin to stand by his side. But this link is not really awarding rewards, it is more to see who can get more attention from King Qin. Therefore, Ying Ying, who can stand by King Qin's side, is obviously better than Ying Hai, who only got a piece of jade.
But after all, the jade bi was given by the King of Qin in front of hundreds of civil and military officials. If people know that they were ruined by Yinghai, then being impeached is light. So although he cut his palm, Yinghai didn't dare to move. Angry, when he crushed the jade bi, he understood that he was impulsive, so he could only hold the jade bi tightly without saying a word.
The gold bricks carried by the wolf soldiers were not sent to the high platform, but went down directly from the other side of the field. The so-called offering of gold bricks is just a ceremony, just a formality.
When all the wolf soldiers carrying the gold bricks left, it was the turn of the monks who participated in the national sports mission to reward their merits.
When the gold bricks were first presented, the three crown princes were personally commended by the King of Qin. Ying Yang is a verbal encouragement, Ying Hai is a jade pendant, and Ying Ying is allowed to stand next to King Qin to watch the ceremony, this is what these princes are fighting for. But these things are obviously meaningless to God bless them monks, at least not directly beneficial. Therefore, what the monks need is a different set of reward systems, that is, physical or meritorious rewards.
The reward process for the monks is different from that of the crown princes, not for them to go up one by one to receive the reward. After all, there are a little more people, and there is no way to reward them one by one, so the crown prince who leads the team needs to be responsible for the roll call, and inform King Qin what these people have done, and then King Qin will give rewards. But there is a difference. According to the number of gold bricks offered before, the number of people that each crown prince can directly count is not exactly the same. Most of these rewards will be sent directly by the King of Qin to the crown prince who leads the team, and then the crown prince will distribute it to his monks according to their specific performance.
As before, the order of the friars' awards was from the lowest to the highest, but not by individual contributions, but by team contributions.
The first to come up was Yingyang. He walked up the steps slowly, and then saluted King Qin. King Qin said: "This year's performance is good, and a talented person can be selected to receive the award." β
Although King Qin said that the performance was good, in fact, this is all a clichΓ©, and the key depends on the final quantity. One place means that this is the minimum standard, unless the BRICS income is negative that year and there is no celebration of commendations, otherwise each crown prince who leads the team will have at least one place.
Although Ying Yang was young, he also knew that the number of gold bricks he got this year could not be compared with his brothers and sisters, so he did not show any dissatisfaction, and turned around in a proper manner and ordered a monk under his command to come forward to accept the award.
The man trotted to the bottom of the steps and stood still, not ascending the steps. He's not the crown prince, so of course he can't go up the stairs. After standing, the man first reported his name, and then knelt down on one knee to salute the King of Qin.
The Qin State itself was not popular to kneel, but it was a formal occasion and it was mandatory. However, the monks of the Shenzhou Continent are like ancient talents, they have many privileges, and they can also see the king without kneeling. But this is not to kneel, not to kneel, not to say that you must not kneel. It also depends on the relationship between the two and the monk's own practice. For example, monks loyal to the Qin state would most likely choose to kneel on one knee when they met the Qin king on a formal occasion, while monks who did not belong to the Qin state generally did not kneel. In addition, most monks above level 90 will not bow to anyone other than their teacher, parents, and deceased relatives.
The monks who participated in the national sports mission themselves would not be too high, and the person in front of them was obviously a Qin person, so it was not surprising that they knelt down.
When the man knelt down, Ying Yang began to introduce simple information such as his cultivation and origin to King Qin, and then focused on describing his exploits during the National Games mission.
After listening to this, King Qin first rewarded two sentences, and after a little muttering, he gave some spirit stones as a reward. This is the bare minimum reward. The main reason is that there are too few gold bricks brought back by Yingyang, and even if only one person is selected to come out to receive the reward, it is impossible to give too many things.
The person below also knew that he wouldn't have too many things, and he wouldn't be disappointed if he didn't look forward to it, so he gladly accepted it and then Shane retreated.
After commending this person, King Qin announced some rewards as rewards for the other monks under Ying Yang, and those people below were not even qualified to come forward to salute, so they could only stand in their own positions and bow from a distance to thank them.
The reward of Ying Yang's subordinates is over here, Ying Hai stuffed the jade pendant in his hand into his clothes, quickly walked up the steps after Ying Yang came down, and then saluted King Qin according to the rules. King Qin complimented as usual, and then gave the number of people allowed to be commended.
Although he couldn't compare to Yingying, the number of gold bricks brought back by Yinghai's subordinates this year was really a lot, and King Qin was also quite happy, so he directly gave a quota of 20 people. That's a lot of that. It should be known that in previous years, even if there were celebrations, the total number of monks who received individual awards was only fifteen or sixteen. This time, Yinghai alone got 20 awards, which is definitely a big deal. However, although the increase in the number of commendations means that more rewards have to be paid, the King of Qin is actually happy to give more things. After all, the reward given is also a side proof that there are many gold bricks recovered.
Hearing this amount, Yinghai's heart was finally happy. Although the number of gold bricks he has been compared to Yingying, at least the rewards for his subordinates will not be less. After all, this award is directly related to the success rate of recruiting monks in the future.
However, he will not be happy soon, because Guan De and Lu Tianzheng are holding back and waiting to watch him play.
