Hearing this, Sen Xuanji pondered for a moment, and a look of approval gradually appeared on his face, and he nodded and said: "If it is a plan to take precautions, it is also feasible, especially if it is appropriate to take one pawn among five hundred people, the king has obviously thought it through."

And in the future, with the escort of soldiers, only two thousand will be enough to deter trivialities after the opening of the port. ”

"Opening the port, Xuan Gong is already thinking about trade with foreign countries?" Zhang Huansheng asked in surprise when he heard this.

"Your Excellency, you still don't know that there are copper and iron mines in the hills around my Zhang County," Sen Xuanji did not directly answer Zhang Huansheng's question, but said with a proud smile: "After making charcoal and building a cave for smelting, the iron and copper ingots obtained are extremely pure. ”

As he spoke, he took out three copper coins of different sizes, round on the outside and square on the inside, stood up, walked in front of Zhang Huansheng, and placed them on the low table.

Zhang Huansheng couldn't help but pick up the copper coins one by one to take a closer look, and saw that the smallest one, only the size of an adult's thumb, was engraved with the word 'Zhang Zheng' on the left and right, and the word 'Yiwen' was engraved on the top and bottom;

The copper coin in the middle is twice as large, and the words 'Zhang Zheng' are also engraved on the left and right, and the words 'dangten' are engraved on the top and bottom;

The largest copper coin is the size of a baby's fist, with complicated patterns attached to the surface, and the words 'Zhang Zheng' are still engraved on the left and right, and the words 'dangbai' are on the top and bottom.

"I don't know much about the way of helping the herdsmen," Zhang Huansheng said in a low voice while fiddling with the copper coins in his hand: "But I also know that it is okay to gather 100,000 people in one place, and in order to survive at the beginning, they only farmed the fields, and everything returned to the public."

But if this is the case for a long time, it will inevitably cause chaos, and Xuangong minting coins and generating an economy is the right way and doing very well. ”

Hearing this, Sen Xuanji couldn't help but say in admiration: "The king is really wise, he is rational and reasonable, he doesn't understand the way of helping the herdsmen, but he is in the most critical place, which really makes the servants admire inexplicably." ”

Hearing his flattery, Zhang Huansheng smiled dumbly, waved his hand and reminded: "There is only one thing that must be paid attention to, the right to mint coins can only be exercised in the hands of the yafang, and those who make coins privately must be severely punished." ”

"The servant has enacted a decree in the city to announce to the common people that those who make coins privately are guilty of robbery and murder, and there is no punishment except death." Sen Xuanji replied in a deep voice.

"That's good." Zhang Huansheng smiled and nodded when he heard this, and then heard the Sen Xuanji say again: "Your Majesty, I have picked out a lot of mulberry seeds from the various baggage you brought to the island when you redeemed the slaves in the forest a few times ago, and they have all been successfully cultivated on the island, and the livestock breeds have also multiplied.

And because of the help of cattle and horses in farming, I saved a lot of manpower, and I slowly brought the common people to know how to make utensils, make wine, and weave... and so on, and so on, and let them still carry out their old business, and promise them money, induce them to be powerful, and force them to accept apprentices to pass on their skills.

Now there is the king from the Great Chu State Zijian brought the hundred classics as a support, in the future I Zhang County will be prosperous, by that time the soldiers will become again, naturally can open the port, set up a port, do the east and west of the two continents of the hub of maritime trade, by the way, seek prosperity. ”

"It turns out that Xuangong is so planning for the future of Zhang County," Zhang Huansheng heard this, pondered for a moment, applauded and sighed in agreement: "It's really not a national soldier who can't do it, and he deserves to be courtesy." After that, he stood up, bowed deeply to Sen Xuanji, and bowed fully.

Seeing this, Sen Xuanji naturally got up and returned the salute, between the two of them, you look at me, I look at you, suddenly there is a spirit in the heart, and at the same time laughed.

The next day, after meeting with the remaining heads of households, criminals, soldiers, workers, officials, rituals, and agricultural affairs, he crossed the ocean by shuttle boat and flew back to Xiongjing in the wind.

At this time, it had only been more than twenty days since the blizzard night when he left Xiong Jing.

Zhang Huansheng pretended to be unkempt and obsessed with cultivation, and returned to Zhang's ancestral house, thinking that no one should notice that he was traveling far away from Beijing, but he didn't expect that he had just entered the side courtyard where he lived, and according to his habit, he strolled into the dining room, and before he could speak, he heard Chunxi, a personal maid who hurriedly came up, said: "Gentleman, 20 days ago, the servant of the army general at home came to invite you.

Thirteen days ago, the Taoist boy of your grandfather Qingtan Gong also came to look for you in the house, do you need to reply to any message? ”

He had stayed in the Guozi Prison for more than 200 days before, and no one had asked Zhang Huansheng about his life or death, but he had just left Xiong Jing for more than 20 days, and two families took turns to look for him, which made him sigh in his heart that his luck was not good, but he said in his mouth: "In the past few days, I have practiced to the pass, and in order to make a breakthrough, I found a quiet hall in the Guozi Prison to cultivate.

I didn't expect people to find their home.

In this way, you go and prepare for the car, I will go to Qingyueguan to see my grandfather after dinner, as for the army general's home, you send someone to ask me what is the matter, and then it is better to make a plan. ”

Chunxi responded, "Yes." After a few cups of tea, he brought a group of small servants to the dinner.

Zhang Huansheng, who has been riding the wind for more than ten hours in a row, saw the delicacies on the table in front of him, and he unceremoniously feasted on it.

After he filled his stomach, he was about to go out in the car, but the servant who went to the military general's mansion to reply took Zhang Suti and said that the younger generation of the Yu family wanted to invite Zhang Huansheng to Minggu Spring in the suburbs of Beijing to enjoy the plum blossoms three days later.

After taking the plain white worship post that was only on the surface and outlined the rhyme of falling flowers with a little ink, Zhang Huansheng asked casually: "You went to Yufu to ask, and they didn't answer more than ten days ago, why did you see me?" ”

"Yu gentleman, after the little one entered the Yu Mansion to explain his identity, he was brought to the little gentleman of the Yu family by Menzi," the servant replied respectfully: "I just saw that the little gentleman wrote this post by himself, and the rest of the words were not mentioned." ”

"yes, then you go down." Zhang Huansheng put away the post when he heard this, waved his hand to let the little guy retreat, frowned, thought about it and walked out of Zhang's mansion, took a car all the way out of Xiongjing, and came to the suburbs outside the city.

Under a bright moon, the horse's hooves stepped on the spacious avenue 'da-da-da', and after a long time, they turned onto a small stone road through the fields and crossed the bridge, and came to a mountain village.

Because it was built in the suburbs of Kyoto, Dachu, no matter how chaotic the world is, as long as it is not Dingge, there is always a peace at the feet of the Son of Heaven, so the village seems rich and comfortable, seeing that there is a strange car driving in, a few middle-aged men who are listening to the 'social opera' on the threshing floor at the head of the village surrounded and asked loudly: "It is dark, who will come to my Fengsui Village?" ”
