Chapter 5: Sharing Sorrows for the Father

Yang Guang thought about it, and was about to say with a full stomach, when Wang Yi ran in: "Your Highness, there is an invitation in the palace." ”

"The queen mother?"

"No, it's Your Majesty."

The emperor summoned him and couldn't delay, so Yang Guang could only say regretfully: "Li Jing, you can live in the mansion, there are many places in my mansion, you can take a look at the courtyard where no one lives by yourself, and wait for me to come back and tell you." ”

Yang Guang got the Tang Dynasty military god today, needless to say, the mood is needless to say, people are in good spirits when they are happy, and they look up to the sky and laugh and go out.

When I came to the gate of the palace, I saw that Yang Yong also happened to arrive.

Yang Yong and Yang Guang are actually similar in appearance, but Yang Yong is more rough in comparison, simply put, there is no Yang Guangshuai.

"Second brother, I heard that your father changed your name?"

"I just changed it, and my eldest brother is really well-informed."

"If you don't know about the genealogy, you still have to? Why did my father let you enter the palace today? ”

"Big brother too?"

The two of them walked together towards the main hall.

Although the two brothers are siblings and look similar, their relationship is average, and the relationship between Yang Yong and his siblings is very average.

came to the hall without saying a word all the way, Yang Jian saw the two coming, so he asked the ministers who were discussing the matter to retreat first, and the father and son stayed to speak.

Looking at his two sons, Yang Jian nodded with satisfaction at first, after all, they are all talented, and they are pleasing to the eye.

"I want the two of you to come today because of two things, you are now old, and you have to worry about me."

"Father, what is the matter, the emperor is duty-bound."

Yang Yong replied quickly, wanting to show himself in front of Yang Jian.

Yang Guang also simply followed.

Yang Jian took out two copies of the recital: "The Great Sui opened the country, I have two major things to do, one is unification, the Great Sui has Qi, Zhou old ministers, the law is complicated, so I ordered Yang Su to repair the unified law, there are also many old coins of the previous dynasty, I observe that there are many kinds of coins circulating in the market, I want to reunify the coin specifications, mint standard coins, ban ancient money and miscellaneous money, money and grain are the country's capital, this matter needs one of the two of you to help me keep an eye on it." ”

In history, in addition to unifying the specifications of coins, the Sui Dynasty also unified the various weights and measures of the Central Plains after the war.

Yang Jian opened another map, which was the planning map of Daxing City, which Yang Guanggang had seen at home.

"There is another thing, Chang'an City has been withering for a long time, and I plan to create a new capital city in Longshou Mountain in the southeast of the city, called Daxing City, and one of the two of you will be responsible for this matter."

"Which of the two of you want to be responsible for?"

Yang Guang was sullen and didn't speak, young and orderly, let Yang Yong speak first, Yang Yong glanced at Yang Guang at this time, hoping that Yang Guang would speak first.

Seeing that the two of them were silent, Yang Jian asked Yang Yong: "Prince, you are the eldest brother, I plan to let you take over all the matters of Daxing City, and the prince will build the capital of the country, which is very good." ”

Yang Yong was anxious when he heard this, he didn't want to take over.

Yang Guang had seen the planning of Daxing City before, and Yang Yong had also seen it, and it should be said that if it weren't for Yuan Ji's appearance, Yang Jian would not let Yang Guang see this kind of project this time.

Yang Yong, as the crown prince, actually called him together when he planned in the early stage, and the ministers around Yang Jian opposed the construction of Daxing City, and after Yang Yong's own observation and the planning of the think tank of the prince's mansion, he must not accept this matter.

Why?

Because the planning of Daxing City is too big, it is more than twice the Chang'an City of the Han Dynasty where it is now located, and to build such a large capital, the manpower and material resources consumed are incalculable, and the risk is too great.

Yang Yong stubbornly said: "Father, although Chang'an City is old, it has been the center of the Central Plains since the prosperous era of the Han Dynasty, with a long history and cultural heritage. ”

Yang Jian's face is not good-looking, but he is not a person who turns his face because of disagreement, Yang Yong's words are the opinions of the ministers who have been discussed before, and the prince can speak out, he is not to blame.

It's just that he must build this Daxing City, as can be seen from the name Daxing, Yang Jian was named Daxing Gong in his early years, and Daxing City is his city.

The old Chang'an City has been seriously polluted for many years, and the second is that Yang Jian feels unlucky.

From the Three Kingdoms at the end of the Han Dynasty to the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, how many people were in power in this city, but it was not long, his goal was to unify the Central Plains, and he was a little superstitious that he wanted to rebuild his imperial capital, so even if a group of ministers were opposed, knowing that it would cost the people and money, he still had to build.

Yang Jian was slightly disappointed and said, "What can you do about the unified currency system?" ”

Yang Yong immediately received this errand: "The son is willing to share the worries of his father." ”

Nonsense, let you take charge of the money printing, this proper big fat difference, you must not take it down quickly.

But Yang Jian did not immediately assign this matter to Yang Yong, but asked Yang Guang: "Amo, are you interested in the matter of coinage." ”

"Yes."

Yang Guang's answer was simple, but Yang Yong sighed in his heart, is this kid going to rob me?

"And who do you think it should be given to you?"

Two things, a chore, a fat errand with enough oil and water, both sons wanted, Yang Jian didn't ask Yang Guang if he wanted to do the business of Daxingcheng, but asked him who to give the matter of coinage, the two sons and two things, one will naturally fall on the other person's head.

Neither of them spoke.

After a short period of silence, Yang Yong spoke: "Father and Emperor, the sons and ministers are still young, and the matter of Daxing City is too big, I don't think I and my second brother can do it well." ”

As soon as he said this, Yang Jian's face immediately darkened, which was much more ugly than before.

In the end, Yang Guang spoke: "Father, Daxing City is large-scale, even if it is a city in ancient and modern times, there is no such a large capital, Erchen just looked at the planning map, if it is really built, I am afraid it can accommodate a million people, ancient and modern, and the assets consumed are naturally very large." ”

Yang Jian frowned at this time, after the eldest son objected, should the second son also oppose it?

"My father gave me two things with my eldest brother, my eldest brother is good at business, I thought about the coinage or the eldest brother to do it, the matter of Daxing City, although the son is not talented, but he is willing to give it a try."

Yang Jian's eyes were full of joy, but his expression remained unchanged: "Didn't you say that Daxing City was too expensive?" ”

"It's just a cost, since the Great Sui has established a country, it is natural to do better than the predecessors, compared to the assets and manpower consumed, Erchen feels that the Great Sui should have such a capital of the ancients, so that the people of the world can see how prosperous the Great Sui is."

Yang Yong only felt that Yang Guang was exaggerating, and it was simple to say, such a large capital city could not be built by you casually.

"Second brother, you don't know much about your government affairs, and the assets consumed in Daxing City may empty the treasury and use military salaries, so don't be in a hurry."

Hmph, although it is time-consuming and laborious to build a new capital, no one wants to compete with me for the position of the director of the Daxing City Development Zone.

Yang Guang replied calmly: "Big brother, heaven and earth will work together. ”

Yang Jian's eyes lit up and he laughed.

"Good! Good! Good! A good sentence comes when heaven and earth work together. ”
