Chapter 344: True and Fake Treasure Money
Once a consensus has been reached, the next step is to develop a plan and take action.
A letter signed for the meeting between the Great Cadres and the Great Zhou Ministers was sent to Jinnan, and the military department of the Zhou State was ordered to re-recruit the guards.
He also ordered all the Tiger Ben troops to enter the state capitals of Qianguo in batches and wait for orders.
Meanwhile.
Whether it was Qin Xingyan or the Hubu Shangshu of the Zhou State, they all began to raise money and food to prepare for the next large-scale war.
Meanwhile.
Because Wu expelled the ticket number of Qianguo, Chang'an Monthly began to criticize the Wu court, from the emperor of Wu, the first assistant of the cabinet, to the Gusu Mansion Yin, and scolded again.
Following.
The Ministry of Rites followed up with a report from the palace, angrily accusing the Wu court of treachery and tearing up the contract, and calling on the merchants of the Qianguo who were doing business in the Wu State to return to Daqian with their goods, wives and children, in order to express their anger at the various actions of the Wu court!
This series of actions is even a fool who can smell the wind and rain.
Therefore, in just three days, a large number of merchants from Qianguo packed up their luggage and rushed back to Qianguo from Wu.
At the same time, although Qin Xingyan, in his capacity as the head of the household department, repeatedly emphasized in the major newspapers that he would ensure that the interests of Wu merchants in the Qianguo would not be infringed upon.
There are still a group of businessmen from the Wu State who have returned to the Wu State.
For this part of the people, Fang Xiu did not send anyone to stop them.
Time passes.
In the blink of an eye, more than half a month has passed.
The situation in Yan is still in constant flux.
50,000 Euros had begun to besiege the capital of Yan, but no obvious results had been achieved.
After receiving the holy decree of King Qin, the Yan troops in various parts of the Yan Kingdom were ready to march towards the capital of the Yan Kingdom.
In less than a month, a counter-encirclement of the Euros will be launched.
Thus.
The Euros must capture the capital of Yan within a month, otherwise they may find themselves in a situation where they are attacked on their backs.
At that time, they will steal the chicken and rice, and everything they have done before will be in vain.
However, according to the survey of the first villager.
The fleet of the Euros on the ocean, having already left, seems to be preparing for the next wave of attacks.
If the Euros had sent a second wave of armies, the end result would have been a different story.
The future direction of the war between the Yan Kingdom and the Euro people is still unknown.
But one thing is certain, in the next month, there will be a battle between Qianguo and Wu!
In the blink of an eye, it was April.
The spring breeze is breezy and refreshing.
The sun is mild and not dry, making people feel comfortable.
Xiangguo's house.
Fang Xiu sat on the stone bench in the courtyard, browsing the map of Yan Kingdom.
Yang Yuhuan stood behind him, with a pair of small hands, gently rubbing his shoulders.
"Xiangye has lost some weight these days."
The little girl rubbed her shoulders and said with some distress.
"Maybe it's because I didn't get a good night's rest during this time."
Fang Xiu said casually.
During this time, Fang Xiu lived in Xiangguo Mansion.
Yang Yuhuan naturally cherished every second that Fang Xiu left in Xiangguo's Mansion, and couldn't wait to be with him all the time.
Hearing Fang Xiu's words that seemed to have a deep meaning.
Yang Yuhuan's delicate face showed a flush, and he changed his words: "Ahem. In fact, the slave family thinks that there is nothing wrong with being thinner. ”
When Fang Xiu heard this, a smile appeared on his face, and he didn't debunk her careful thoughts, but just said: "From tomorrow, the prime minister will live in the palace, will you stay in the Xiangguo Mansion, or will you enter the palace with the prime minister?" ”
The voice fell.
Yang Yuhuan was a little confused and asked, "Won't Xiangye return to Xiangguo's Mansion in the future?" ”
She didn't really want to go to the palace.
After all, there are many rules in the palace, and after she goes, she must be the identity of the palace maid, and she will inevitably be restricted.
The most important thing is that after arriving in the palace, if you want to rest with Fang Xiang, it will definitely not be as easy as now.
For her, Xiangguofu is home, but not in the palace.
Fang Xiu said: "It's just that living in the palace for the next two or three months, eventful, the affairs of the court are complicated, living in the palace can save a lot of time and trouble." ”
When Yang Yuhuan heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "The slave family is willing to enter the palace to serve the prime minister." ”
Fang Xiu turned his head to look at her, raised his eyebrows, and asked, "You're not afraid that after entering the palace, you will be restrained?" ”
Yang Yuhuan said with a serious face: "Compared with being restrained, the slave family is more afraid that after waking up, they will not be able to see Xiangye." ”
I have to say that although the little girl has some green tea on weekdays, in front of Fang Xiu, she is a good sister who is extremely considerate and sensible.
When these words came out, even Fang Xiu, who was accustomed to hearing flattery, couldn't help but feel a burst of warmth.
He reached out and pinched Yang Yuhuan's soft and boneless little hand, and opened his mouth to say something.
Before he could speak, he heard a voice not far away.
"Tut-tut, I haven't seen you for a few days, but Sister Yuhuan is still as intimate as ever."
Yang Yuhuan was slightly stunned and looked in the direction where the voice came from.
I saw Daji in a red Luo skirt standing there, looking at herself with a smile.
"Dog! Spoiling the atmosphere again! ”
Yang Yuhuan sneered, but his face was pleasant, and said: "Sister Daji is back, it must have been hard to run around outside these days, and my sister will go to pour tea for my sister." ”
With that, he poured his tea.
She knew that during this time, Daji had really worked hard.
Going-for-tat with Daji, or going against her openly and secretly, will definitely arouse Xiangye's disgust, so I didn't care about her suddenly appearing and breaking the beautiful atmosphere.
If it was placed before.
Yang Yuhuan must have a few more words of tea and tea.
A moment later.
Yang Yuhuan took a cup of brewed tea, returned to the courtyard, and handed it to Daji.
"So well-behaved?"
Daji reached out and took the teacup, with a hint of surprise on her face, carefully looked at the teacup, and muttered to herself, "I guess I don't add anything to the tea." ”
“.”
When Yang Yuhuan heard this, he couldn't wait to go up and pinch her, took a deep breath, and secretly muttered to himself: Don't worry about her, don't worry about her.
only to calm down.
Da Ji saw that Yang Yuhuan looked deflated, and the corners of his mouth hooked up a smile.
Drinking all the tea in his hand, he looked at Fang Xiu and said, "Xiangye, the Wu Guobao banknote you ordered before has been imitated." ”
It's pretty fast.
When Fang Xiu heard this, he raised his eyebrows, looked at Daji, and asked, "Is there a sample?" ”
"The slave family brought it."
Da Ji stretched out his hand and took out two Wu Guobao banknotes from his arms, handed them to Fang Xiu's hand, and said, "Xiangye, take a look first, if the slave family doesn't tell you, which of these two is true and which one is fake, can you distinguish between them." ”
Fang Xiu stretched out his hand and took the two Wu Guobao banknotes, put them in the sun, and carefully compared them.
Not to mention, it's exactly the same.
"Yuhuan, let's take a look and see if you can find a difference."
Fang Xiu beckoned and said.
"Yes, Xiangye."
Yang Yuhuan immediately leaned over to Fang Xiu and carefully looked at the two treasure notes.
The two looked at the time of a full stick of incense, but they didn't find any difference.
"These two are obviously the same!"
Yang Yuhuan pouted, looked at Daji, and said, "Sister Daji, shouldn't she take two real ones to tease Xiangye?" ”
When Daji heard this, a smile appeared on her delicate face, and she said, "Sister Yuhuan has won the award." ”
“.”
Yang Yuhuan was stunned for a moment, and said in his heart, who praised you.
"The one in Xiangye's left hand is a treasure banknote printed by Wu Guo, and the one in Xiangye's right hand is a treasure banknote imitated by the workshop."
Da Ji walked up to Fang Xiu, with a look of pride on his face, and said with a solemn oath: "The slave family dares to say that even if the person who prints the treasure money from the Wu Kingdom comes, he can't see the difference between the two!" ”
When Fang Xiu heard this, his face showed a look of satisfaction, he stood up, pinched Daji's face, and said with a smile: "Good job. Whatever reward you want, as long as you can do it, I will promise you everything. ”
Da Ji saw that Fang Xiu was happy, and his heart was equally happy.
A sense of satisfaction arose, his smile was like a flower, and he said softly: "Being able to do things for Xiangye is the best reward that God has given to the slave family." ”
Yang Yuhuan was on the side, and when he saw this scene, his good-looking eyes were full of the five big words of envy, jealousy and hatred.
It's a pity that she really has no talent for business and can't share her worries for Xiangye.
On weekdays, she can only play the role of a little maid and take care of her husband's food, clothing and daily life.
"A few days ago, Wu Guoshang Jia presented a night pearl to His Majesty, it looks very beautiful, enter the palace tomorrow, and show you the original appearance, if you like it, you can stay."
Fang Xiu looked at Daji and said softly.
He knew that Daji was different from the little empress, and he was still quite interested in rare treasures, so he rewarded him with the rare night pearl.
Although she does not give any reward, she will do her best.
But Fang Xiu couldn't help it.
When Daji heard this, she was silent for a few seconds, and suddenly whispered: "Compared with the Night Pearl, the slave family hopes that Xiangye will be by the slave family's side." ”
Side.
Yang Yuhuan said in his heart: This should be my word! How did you say my words!
Fang Xiu thought for a while and said, "After entering the palace tomorrow, the prime minister will tell Your Majesty that Your Majesty will vacate a palace for you and Yuhuan to rest, and in the future, as long as you want, you will live in the palace, as long as you don't do too much, no one will restrain you." ”
Daji and Yang Yuhuan listened, and their faces showed joy.
And Yang Yuhuan almost blurted out and asked, "Xiangye, what is excessive?" The slave family has a good number in their hearts. ”
Fang Xiu thought for a moment and said, "As long as you don't set fire to the Queen Mother's bedroom." ”
When Yang Yuhuan heard this, his eyebrows were full of smiles, and he thought: So, sneaking into Xiangye's house in the middle of the night is not too much?
Having said that, Xiang Ye lives in the palace, and he should live with Her Majesty the Empress, even if he sneaks in, he can't do anything.
At this thought, she was a little lost.
Now.
Fang Xiu had already focused on the treasure money in his hand.
He looked at Wu Guobao's banknotes, which couldn't distinguish between real and fake, and his face showed a thoughtful look.
After a moment, he made a decision, leaning over Daji's ear and commanding.
Daji listened, and her expression changed slightly.
"Do you remember what the prime minister just said?"
Fang Xiu looked at Daji and asked.
Daji's expression was a little strange, but he still nodded and said, "The slave family remembers." ”
Fang Xiu said: "Do you think that the means of the true phase are a bit inferior?" ”
Daji shook his head busily and said: "To deal with the enemy, it is not too much to use any means, the slave family is just thinking, if you do what Xiang Ye tells and everything goes well, wouldn't it be that the imperial court does not need to use troops against Wu State, and Wu State itself will become a pot of porridge?" ”
Fang Xiu said: "If everything goes well, when the time comes, it will be Wu Guo who is forced to use troops against my cadres and wait for work, and Li Yinyue's chances of victory will be a few points higher." ”
When Daji heard this, she looked at Fang Xiu with even more reverence in her eyes, and her heart was even more admiring.
"If there is nothing to do, go and do this matter first, remember to come back for dinner in the evening, and the prime minister will hold a banquet for you to celebrate."
Fang Xiu said in a soft tone.
Daji saluted and said with a smile: "The slave family likes wine, don't forget to prepare more." ”
"Remember, go ahead."
"The slave family retreated."
After Daji left the Xiangguo Mansion, he came to the workshop that printed treasure money, and according to Fang Xiu's instructions, he divided a part of the people, trained new craftsmen, opened a new workshop, and made every effort to print the treasure banknotes of the Wu Kingdom.
Next, in just a few days.
There were treasure banknotes worth tens of thousands of taels of silver, which were printed.
These treasure banknotes were all handed over to the shadow guard who was dormant in the first village of Wu through the channel!
Wu State, Gusu Mansion.
The brilliant sunlight shines between the green tiles and red walls everywhere.
The abrupt cornices, the high-flying signboard flags, the sparkling carriages and horses, and the endless flow of pedestrians constitute a picture of a prosperous era.
It is one of the most prosperous cities in the world.
The streets are full of vendors and pedestrians.
Even if it's not next to any festival, the atmosphere is still hot.
Even though the news of the imminent start of war at the border has spread.
The people of Gusu Mansion, who are far away from the border, are still leisurely and content, and they don't care about it.
Now.
The streets stretching from east to west are lined with various tea shops and sake shops.
Tea guests sit in private rooms, sipping tea and chatting at the same time.
The ear is a delicate minor.
In front of me is a small bridge and flowing water.
Very pleasant.
Somewhere in a private room in a tea house.
The pot-bellied businessman, Jia Ruzhen sat on a wooden chair, holding a teacup, and looked leisurely.
Opposite him, there was also a businessman, who looked thinner, also holding a teacup, and looked extraordinary.
"How much grain does Shopkeeper Jia plan to buy this time?"
The thin merchant Jia took a sip of tea, looked at the pot-bellied Jia Ruzhen, and asked.
Jia Ruzhen didn't answer, but slowly stretched out a finger.
Seeing this, the thin merchant's eyes lit up, and he asked, "Ten thousand stones?" ”
Jia Ruzhen shook his head gently.
When the thin merchant Jia heard this, his eyes instantly dimmed, and he said, "If it's just a thousand stones, Shopkeeper Jia can take the grain away today." ”
This time.
Jia Ruzhen finally spoke, and said in a flat tone: "Brother Tai misunderstood, what I am talking about below is 100,000 stones!" ”
The voice fell.
The thin businessman's eyes widened, his mouth opened slightly, and his face was incredulous.
100,000 stone grain!
According to the grain price of Wu State, if all of it is rice, you can earn at least 30,000 or 40,000 taels!
If this business can be negotiated, it will make more money than he has earned in several years!
