Sun Ming stayed on Lingyun Island for five days in a row, and the first turn of the Nine Yuan Gong was completed, which was comparable to the Earth Immortal Realm, and the internal cultivation was the tribulation period, and time was running out, Sun Ming chose to give up and continue to cultivate, and the progress of this cultivation was a little fast, even if he experienced it, he couldn't be careless, and finally Sun Ming chose to return to Chaoge.

Liu'er returned to the Holy Master Hall with Sun Ming, "I'll pick you up again during the worship period next year, do you want to announce it to the outside world and say that I have accepted you as an apprentice?"

"No, it's even worse that way, it's best now, let them guess!" Sun Ming shook his head, then pushed the door and walked out of the Holy Master Hall, while Liu'er returned to Lingyun Island.

As soon as he left the Holy Master's Palace, the guards outside immediately stepped forward, and after Sun Ming left, his guards were stationed here, waiting for his return.

"See the King. The guards saluted.

"Excuse me, go back to the palace. Sun Ming drove back to the palace, and the news instantly spread all over the court, and it was also a miracle that he could be taken away by the holy master, and only the three emperors and five emperors had been taken away. The people of Chaoge began to talk about it, and they had great respect for the king, because they now had land, less taxes, and surplus grain at home, and in order to prevent more grain from hurting the peasants, the king also took out new currency to buy grain, so that they had surplus money in their hands and could buy some things.

And Sun Ming's series of policies to benefit the people made his reputation in the court song like a sky, and now he has been taken away by the holy master, so this situation will naturally be praised by the people, and the princes of the Eight Hundred Roads are all listening to it.

The four princes gathered again, the four looked at each other, and finally it was the Northern Bohou Chonghou Hu who spoke first, "You are not happy at all, just say something about it? Now that the king has returned, and Chaoge has been moving continuously this year, all the land has been taken over to the royal family, and it is forbidden to buy and sell, what do you think of this matter? This time, the three of us sent troops to quell the rebellion, will the king give us the fief of the princes of the Seventy-two Roads?"

His question was very direct, this was the main purpose of coming to the court meeting this time, Xibo Hou Jichang pondered for a while, and then said: "In my opinion, it is difficult to get a fief this time, and the royal family has begun to be wary of our princes. ”

"Then how can it be done? Ji Chang, our four princes must work together, and the fief must be won over, otherwise this time the army will not be in vain?"

Dongbohou Jiang Huanchu shook his head and said: "Beibohou don't need to be anxious, there is no news about this matter yet, and it will naturally be clear when the court meeting comes, and even if we can't get the fief, our reward will definitely not be less, you can take a look." "Because of his in-laws, Dong Bohou naturally has some heart for the royal family, and he doesn't believe that the royal family will make him suffer.

And Ji Chang is cautious by nature, and he is unwilling to be the first bird for some things, this is his way of life, so there are still two of the four princes left, but Nanbohou E Chongyu did not participate in the counterinsurgency this time, and the fief has nothing to do with him, and he doesn't want the other three princes to get the fief and surpass him in strength, so he can't speak, Sun Ming arranged to send troops to deliberately leave one who did not participate, just for this time.

If Nan Bohou was also allowed to participate in the encirclement and suppression, then now Sun Ming is facing the four princes, although Nan Bohou is a little far away, but it is also possible to send troops, and it will be easier to quell the rebellion, but this is not in line with Sun Ming's plan.

And now although the judgment can be said to be smooth, the losses of the princes from all walks of life are not small, and the elite soldiers in their hands also have casualties, which is what Sun Ming wants to see.

As soon as Chonghou Hu looked at the current situation, Nanbohou E Chongyu knew without saying a word that this guy didn't want the three of them to get a fief, and the other two also had their own plans, so he said angrily: "Hmph, it turns out that only I am enthusiastic, so let's see it when the time comes." ”

The four princes did not reach an agreement, and in this case, the day of the great court meeting came.

Early in the morning, Sun Ming wore a costume and a crown on his head, and came directly to the main hall, and then the front official of the palace shouted: "The court will meet you." ”

Shang Rong and Wen Zhong led the civil and military, and the four princes led the princes from all walks of life to enter the palace, and the front of the council hall is now extremely open, and the traces of last year's fire are gone, but the familiar buildings before have also disappeared. The princes were surprised, this king really did not rebuild the palace, it is hard to imagine that such a young king is also a determined person, not fascinated by foreign objects at all!

"See the King. Sun Minggao sat on the top, looked down at the civil and military ministers and princes of the Manchu Dynasty, and nodded to let them be exempted.

"The Northern Bohou Chonghou Hu, the Eastern Bohou Jiang Huanchu, and the Western Bohou Jichang led the northern princes to judge the merits, and the lonely heart was very relieved, and the prime minister read the reward for the orphan. Sun Ming spoke directly.

"Yes, my lord. Shang Rong took out a rectangular fold with a yellow cover, and then showed it, and inside was snow-white paper, which is now used in Chaoge, and a large number of books were reprinted by movable type printing, replacing bamboo slips.

"The three princes worked hard and made great achievements, and rewarded 10,000 taels of gold, 100,000 taels of silver, 100,000 copper coins, 100 commercial ploughs, and 1,000 knives of Dixin paper. The three princes looked confused, what are these things, after coming to Chaoge, they have heard of the new currencies of gold, silver and copper, which are said to be very useful, but they are not very clear about this amount, and at this time, the servants came to the front of the hall with some large boxes, and then the boxes opened, and a dazzling light.

There is a bronze mirror behind the lights in the main hall, which is made by Sun Ming, and the gold and silver shine brightly under the light, like infinite treasures, and the courtiers and princes in the hall can't open their eyes in an instant.

"The three princes, this is the gold ingot, the silver ingot, and the copper coin is the copper coin that attracts wealth and enters the treasure. "Sun Ming engraved on the copper coin is the four words of fortune and treasure, the use of forging method casting, the use of 10,000 catties of iron mold with water conservancy pull up and then fall, basically a molding, there are seven points of copper and three lead, round square holes, in accordance with the style of the treasure money cast.

Shang Rong explained to the three of them, and then continued: "The king felt that my dynasty was chaotic and the weights and measures were different, so he specially went to the Holy Master's Hall to ask for three spiritual treasures to help me unify the weights and measures. "Pulling the tiger skin to make a big banner, Shang Rong directly moved out of the Holy Master, and at the same time, there were three things out of the servant means tray, covered with red cloth, and then unveiled, for a while, the glory was magnificent, and the princes below were stunned.

"The Qiankun ruler can measure the heaven and the earth, and the king himself sets the length of the inch, ruler, and zhang, and then there are acres of land used. The solid stone can be big or small, and the king set the weight of two, catty, and kilogram. Treasure money, that is, the current use of fortune into the treasure copper money, so shopping is very convenient. "Sun Ming implemented currency this time, directly used currency to buy food, so that the currency circulated, not only convenient business, but also the wealth of the royal family skyrocketed, you must know that this money can be regarded as the royal family, directly used to buy things, how much money the royal family minted, how much wealth.

However, Sun Ming did not directly mint a large amount of gold and silver, but more copper coins, copper coins are the basic currency in circulation, this demand is huge, and before the development of commerce, too much gold and silver can not be released.

A series of things made the princes of all walks of life a little unclear So, although they heard it clearly, they hadn't seen the benefits yet, so naturally they wouldn't say anything, and Sun Ming then continued to throw things out, letting them continue to think instead of talking.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I intend to build another city outside the city of Chaoge. "Sun Ming's words shocked everyone, build another city?" I have a large business of 800 princes, and the territory is vast, but the trade routes are not passable, and the information is not smooth, so I am very troubled by this. So I prepared to build another city, which was specially designed to provide a place for trade for the caravans of all the princes, and to bring together the products of our great merchants to trade in this place. ”

Fei Zhong and You Hun came today, carefully pondering Sun Ming's intentions, the two of them are very smart, otherwise it is impossible to meet the source left and right, what the grass on the wall should pay attention to is the direction of the wind, now they probably have the bottom in their hearts, hearing Sun Ming's words, Fei Zhong jumped out first, "King Yingming, so that the caravan of the princes from all walks of life can save half of the distance, and at the same time, you can buy the products of the north and the south, saving time and effort, my big business will be prosperous, this is the merit of thousands of years." ”

Not to be left behind, You Hun also jumped out, "Yes, in this way, the princes of all places will surely rejoice, and my great business will surely prosper and prosper." Shang Rong, Bi Gan and Wen Zhong only understood at this time why the king said that villains have the usefulness of villains, although what they said was right, but they couldn't do it with such a lascivious expression and such a sycophantic attitude.

Sun Ming smiled and said nothing, he knew that these two guys were of a lot of use, especially at this time, and the princes below calculated after listening to it, it is true, there is no need to travel to the local area for a thing, just come to the court, so that you can buy a large number of goods, and when the time comes, sell them to your own fiefdom, and the amount of wealth can increase all the time.

But they didn't calculate, if you want to buy goods, especially in Chaoge to trade, first you need to have currency, and currency Sun Ming will not give it to you for nothing, you need to exchange things for it, and the value of currency is greater than the original metal form, so Sun Ming can collect a large number of precious metals, as well as iron. This is equivalent to collecting the wealth of the world into his own pocket, this is Sun Ming's first step to circle money, and the next tax collection is also massive, so that the princes can make money at the same time he is the most profitable one, and if you have money, you can do things.
