With all the world's surpluses, the treatment of slaves began to gradually improve, and Luo Fan promulgated a new slave law, one of which was that slaves could get out of slavery through their own efforts. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
The Shang Dynasty gradually developed into a situation where there were many slaves and slave owners were inferior to livestock, and the contradiction between slaves and slave owners was once intensified, but it became more and more abundant in the world, and the new reform began, this contradiction gradually began to improve.
During this period, Xiqi was no longer a court, and they finally couldn't hold it back, Ji Fa was called king in Xiqi, and constantly preached the mediocrity of Emperor Xin, and both sides were ready to go.
Only the victorious side can obtain the god list, which is a law that both sides have known for a long time, so now it is only time to wait for the time to start.
It was only when Xiqi stopped being a merchant that he gradually discovered a problem, that is, the banknotes used by the people were all banknotes issued by the big merchants, and all of them were printed with the portraits of Di Xin.
"Can anyone tell me what the hell is going on?" In the palace, Ji Fa looked at His Highness with a displeased face, although he felt that coins were just things to trade, and he didn't feel that anything was relevant to him, but using coins with the portrait of Di Xin in his own country always made him feel a little inappropriate.
At this time, Xiqi, has long ceased to be the scene of the year, now Xiqi is building a lot of buildings, building a real spirit palace, the palace is full of strange flowers and plants, the wide hall is like a mountain, all the officials are gone, only to see the immortals from all walks of life come to the court, the fairy clouds in the palace are curling, and the people who come and go are capable people, it is really like the legendary Tiangong Yuque.
The king was angry. I saw a young courtier step forward and said, "In the past, I Xiqi belonged to Chaoge, so I naturally used Chaoge's coins, which were printed with the head of Emperor Xin, which was also normal, so the minister ordered people to make new coins, and then exchanged the new coins for the old ones, and made sure that the people of our country used the coins with the king's head." ”
"That's good. Ji Fa looked at the man, "Zhou Gongdan, this matter will be handed over to you." ”
Morning song.
"Your Majesty, according to the Tanmalay report, Xiqi's side, under the leadership of the auxiliary minister Zhou Gongdan, has begun to replace a large number of coins. In the hall, I saw Shang Rong stepping forward.
"Change coins?" Luo Fan couldn't help but smile when he heard this, "What about the money bank?"
Shang Rong said: "Haven't moved for the time being." ”
"That's good. Luo Fan nodded and said to Zhao Min beside him, "Are your sisters still in Xiqi?"
"Nature is there. ”
Luo Fan nodded again and said to Shang Rong: "Prime Minister, do you have any samples of Xiqi coins, can you give me a look?"
Lu Miaozi immediately presented Xiqi's coin, only to see that Ji Fa's head was printed on it, and the pattern was quite complicated, but it was printed a little pasty in some places, and it really didn't look like what a coin should look like, Luo Fan asked: "Do they still use engraving printing?"
"It's nature. Lu Miaozi said, "Your Majesty has only let us disclose the engraving printing and movable type printing technology, and in a short period of time, they will not be able to make better coins." ”
Luo Fan said: "Okay, according to this kind of banknote, print 500,000 copies for me first and send them to Xiqi, buy me more grain, oil, salt, steel and other materials back, don't be too anxious, buy slowly." ”
His Royal Highness's hundred officials were stunned for a moment when they heard this, and then they heard Fei Zhong praise: "Wonderful! It's really wonderful, so that a large amount of supplies from Xiqi can be put into my hands without much effort, Your Majesty is really clever, and my generation can't do it." ”
Baiguan immediately applauded, Luo Fan glanced at Lu Miaozi, but shook his head, how could the plan he had set earlier only have this effect.
Luo Fan many things are handed over to Lu Miaozi to do, and because of the vigorous development of commerce, many big businessmen, are Lu Miaozi secretly raised, many big salt merchants, jewelers were even sent out from the palace, they came to Xiqi with the money, at this time the pheasant essence and pipa spirit in Xiqi has been quite prestigious, plus the two demons have spells, although everyone who comes to Zhou from business has to go through the check, but with the help of the two goblins, it is naturally unimpeded, and the coins were quickly transported to Xiqi.
At this time, Xiqi was proceeding in an orderly manner with the new and the old under the guidance of the official, but at this time, they found a problem - all the money banks withdrew from Xiqi overnight!
Those ordinary people who don't need much money a day are fine, because many of them only need to use a small amount of copper shells, and not many people exchange paper money, let alone save money, but those big nobles, big landlords and slave owners are all dumbfounded at this time, because they find that those money houses and silver trumpets are all opened by the people of the Shang Kingdom, and now they have all withdrawn from Zhou, and if they want to get their money back, they can only go to the Shang Kingdom.
Now that the situation between the two countries is extremely bad, and there is a possibility of war at any time, when they are thinking about whether to go to the Shang country to recover their losses, they find that there are merchants in Xiqi who are buying grain, oil, iron and other goods at high prices.
In ancient times, most of the landlords and nobles loved to hoard food and materials, and when it came to war, these things could be much more valuable than gold and silver, so the nobles and landlords, who had suffered heavy losses, immediately began to sell, but in a few days, the hundreds of thousands of coins that Luo Fan gave to these merchants were all sold out!
And the Xiqi nobles found that these merchants, not long after, appeared again, and still bought grain, oil and other things at a high price as always, and everyone did not suspect him, and once again exchanged all these things for money.
At this time, Xiqi had not yet discovered that only some of the banknotes circulating on the market were issued by themselves, and some of them were from Chaoge!
And those merchants, after Xiqi purchased two batches of supplies, seem to have disappeared and never appeared in Xiqi again.
Another season passed, the grain was once again harvested, and the grain and other things in Xiqi were replenished again, and now these things are not rare at all, so that the rich merchants and nobles who sold the grain at that time and made a lot of money were all happy in their hearts, and those nobles who were unwilling to sell could not help but regret it in their hearts.
At this time, Luo Fan still did not plan to start a war with Xiqi, Xiqi already had some intentions to start a war at this time, but he still did not plan to start a full-scale war.
Xiqi.
Now that the situation is clear, Ji Fa is the king, Shang and Zhou have been divided and ruled, the Heavenly Dao was chaotic at the beginning, and some powerful people have not been able to contact each other, but now they are all listed.
The immortals in the palace were also discussing, and they naturally advocated attacking Chaoge, but many of them thought that they were not prepared enough now and needed to wait for a while.
Jiang Shang had already endured it for a long time, but how could he not want to avenge the revenge of the sword back then? Just pressed from above, he never dared to act rashly, and now seeing this situation, he immediately said: "Now that the Shang and Zhou dynasties are separated, and Di Xin has been sitting on the throne for nearly ten years, what is the reason why we see an inferior king of the Yu clan An Ran on our side, but do nothing?"
Ji Fa said, "Jiang Shang, how are you doing?"
"Please give me 100,000 elite soldiers, and I will step on the song of the Ping Dynasty!"
Ji Fa thought for a while, and then said: "When our clan first came here, they encountered the rebellion of the Heavenly Dao, and let those ants get some advantage for nothing, and now that all the heroes are gathered, Jiang Shang, you will send troops." ”
Immediately issued Bai Xuan, Huang Yue, 100,000 people and horses, choose an auspicious day to sacrifice Bao Xu, with Nangong Shi as the first, Lei Gu as the deputy general, accompanied by four immortals, respectively, Huanglong Zhenren, fear of Liusun, Yuxu Palace Gate Deng Hua, Xiao Zhen, all the way mighty, momentum like a tiger.
And just when Xiqi sent troops, Chaoge, in the Nine Palaces, was ushering in one person at this moment.
I saw that the man was wearing a green scarf on his head, wearing a Taoist robe, holding a whisk of dust in his hand, and a Zixiao sword behind his back, which was none other than Shen Gongbao.
When Luo Fan saw the visitor, he couldn't help laughing, got up and greeted him: "Welcome back to the national teacher." ”
"Fortunately, I was not dishonored. Shen Gongbao said, "Now I am willing to help the immortals of my dynasty twenty and three, and there are still some of them, for the time being, they are undecided, and they have not yet been confirmed." ”
"Good!good!good!" Luo Fan sent three good words in a row, over the years, he just found out a little bit of news about Xiaolongnu and others, or because he had no prestige, no one came to vote for the time being, but he didn't expect Shen Gongbao to pull more than 20 helpers at once.
