Chapter 451 My Son Still Cares About Me

Yang Gan sneered and said, "Without the right to mint money and complete centralization of power, there is simply no way to govern the economy."

"And you are still using modern people's ideas. The inside of the coin still needs some yellow metal as a base. In this way, the coin itself will be valuable, and the Guizhou leaders will recognize it."

Zhang Yumeng tilted her head, comparing modern currency and ancient currency in her mind and found that the ancient system was more suitable for the actual situation.

"You mean to give up the traditional 50 cents, one dollar, etc., and replace it with a few cents, right?"

“A combination of ancient and modern times~~!”

Yang Gan laughed and said, "It's easy to use one qian, five qian, ten qian, or one hundred qian. You can make a hole in the middle and string them together so that the weight is as uniform as possible."

"Anyway, it's just to be as down-to-earth as possible so that the uneducated Guizhou leaders can accept it, then there will be no problem."

Zhang Yumeng suddenly realized, "What you are saying is that money itself is a precious metal, so that everyone can recognize it. Well, that's right. Why did you think of it? I almost fell into this historical weird circle. Modern coins themselves have no value because of the state." It gives it value, that’s why it’s valuable.”

Yang Gan nodded and patted her shoulder, "Okay, I'll leave this matter to you. I'll make a feasibility report and we can start when I get the minting rights."

Zhang Yumeng nodded, then shook his head, "It's not that simple. When I came here, I asked around along the way and found out that Hai Chaohou alone is very powerful, let alone the county."

"Just such a scumbag marquis can manage the land of a county. This national tax system is like a contract system."

Yang Gan smiled and said, "Don't worry, I have arrangements."

Zhang Yumeng raised her eyebrows and looked at Yang Qian in surprise. It was obvious that this kid was still making some arrangements secretly. How could this person be such a thief? People couldn't figure it out at all.

While Yang Qian was patrolling everywhere, the Xia Kingdom and other vassal states were busy with their own plans. After all, there was no time for true peace in the Central Plains.

Although the war was not fought much, various small actions never stopped. There were even many battles between soldiers from the two countries at the border to determine the outcome, but no lives were lost.

Some generals are also very supportive of such a movement. Don't go without fighting for a long time, otherwise you will be in trouble if your combat effectiveness is exhausted.

In the spacious and tall inner hall, King Xia Wen sat on a chair with a good face, drinking tea leisurely.

"The tea given by Zhao'er is really good. After drinking it, your teeth and cheeks will be fragrant~~~ Moreover, this kind of tureen is also comfortable to use, and the chair is also comfortable."

Xue Kang'an smiled boldly and said, "Your Majesty, the medicinal materials collected by the young master have arrived again."

King Xia Wen asked curiously, "Didn't there be a lot more given last time?"

"Yes, I heard that you only used 70% of it, but the young master asked the messenger to tell you that you cannot stop taking the medicine."

Yang Qian: You are sick and cannot stop taking the medicine!

The most ruthless emperor's family. To be honest, there is no normal person who comes from such a family. Therefore, there are almost no normal people who can be princes and generals.

Yang Qian is not an idiot. He is not familiar with King Xia Wen, but the name is there and he still needs to rely on him, but he cannot go back.

Once we go back, we will be in trouble. Master Jie must know that he is not dead, and the direction of the fire must not be in the temple.

Second, come on, to be honest, I am not familiar with King Xia Wen, so calling someone daddy to someone I have never met before, this, this cannot be said out loud, it will be quite embarrassing and not good-looking, right?

However, he still remembered some knowledge he had seen on Douyin before.

Filial piety is the first of all good deeds, and there is no need to show filial piety as long as you are filial in your heart.

But Yang Qian felt that his current position was quite embarrassing, so he might as well do the opposite, not communicate, and express it through actions.

According to Anzi's report, Prince Jie was looking for the Prime Minister to do little things every day, but his thoughts were not focused on King Xia Wen at all, and he ignored the relationship between father and son.

Sometimes precious things are often the easiest for others to get, and the most difficult things for the royal family to get are the most valuable.

Yang Qian started from this aspect. Some "unpretentious" gifts, as long as they were good for King Xia Wen's health, were all packaged and sent to the court.

Regardless of whether it is useful or not, we will wait until you give it away.

Even the first wool sweater knitted from wool was given away.

"Zhao'er is still heart-warming. The other sons, huh, are almost as good as dead. It's a pity that we can't have them together. It's a big pity."

King Xia Wen's face gradually became lonely. It was so sad to sit on a huge land but not get a trace of family affection.

Xue Kang'an couldn't even continue to say these words. This was obviously the king's soliloquy. To continue it rashly would be to seek death.

"What is Zhou Qi doing recently?"

Xue Kang'an cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, Taiwei, you deal with military affairs almost after you go to court. You don't go out much at home every day."

King Xia Wen narrowed his eyes and snorted coldly, "Remember what Zhao'er said, there are monsters in the abnormality. People who like to go out to eat and drink on weekdays actually stay at home all day long. Isn't this a clear sign that something is wrong?"

At this time Qu Xiuwen came in, and King Xia Wen said, "Did you hear us talking when you came in just now? Tell us what you heard."

Qu Xiuwen cupped his hands and said, "Young Master's words are very reasonable. If this happens, I'm afraid the Taiwei Lord has completely sided with the Prime Minister."

"Why are you so sure?" King Xia Wen asked curiously.

"The purpose of the young master's fake death is to prevent the young master Jie from troubling him. If Master Taiwei learns about such a confidential matter, he will take action."

"What action."

Qu Xiuwen's eyes flashed coldly, "In the past, the Taiwei was very keen on letting his daughter marry Young Master Zhao. Your Majesty, has he mentioned it in recent times?"

The three of them suddenly understood. Even Wang Jian looked slightly sideways and secretly asked, "Is it already so obvious?"

"Have you found the person behind Jie'er?"

"It has been found that there are at least two kingdoms supporting it, namely Zhou State and Wu State."

King Xia Wen's eyes flashed coldly, "It is indeed a disaster. Should we consider cutting down the vassalage?"

Qu Xiuwen was shocked and turned pale, "Your Majesty, you must not do it. If you cut off the feudal vassal, the other five counties will definitely not let it go. If they cause rebellion at the same time, wouldn't it mean that Daxia will shake the foundation of our country?"

"Oh~~~! I still have to figure it out slowly, but I'm afraid Jie'er won't be able to wait. He's not a very patient person."

King Xia Wen had a headache and asked, "Do you have any ideas?"

Several people looked at each other, and Qu Xiuwen tried to say, "Why don't you ask the messenger to ask the young master when he returns?"

Everyone's eyes lit up. Ji Zhao's existence was already a bit strange. No matter what difficult problems he had, they seemed to become easier when he got them.

"That's it, it's decided."

"Who is it?" Suddenly, the guard at the door yelled.

Dozens of guards rushed towards a figure. King Xia Wen and others were also shocked. He directly drew his sword and rushed out.

Xia people, tigers and wolves, even if they are kings, are not cowards, they are the ones who really dare to risk their lives.

"Ah~~~!" A scream sounded.

I saw a man dressed as an eunuch being dragged over by the guards.

King Xia Wen looked ugly and said, "Dead?"

The leader of the guards raised his hands and said, "Your Majesty, this animal is a dead warrior. It is not afraid of death. It was only when we found out that it actually fought with us with its own strength. It was only out of desperation that it was killed."

King Xia Wen was helpless, everyone was dead, what else could he say? He glanced at the leader of the guards, looked at Xue Kang'an, and said calmly.

"Capture all the guards on duty today and wait for execution. All the eunuchs will be beheaded."

"No~~~!"

Xue Kang'an accepted the order. When King Xia Wen returned, he couldn't help wiping the sweat from his face. He was a guard and was in charge of the palace guard. He couldn't escape this time.

When everyone left, a figure quickly jumped out of the rockery and disappeared without a trace. Obviously there was someone in the palace to help, otherwise it would not have been possible to escape so easily.

A few days later, the court master was actually in a harmonious mood, as if the world was at peace, as if the eavesdropping incident had not caused any trouble.

Shang Guo, Fu Yanchaotang.

Compared to the Xia Kingdom's court, this place was almost full of the smell of gunpowder. Representatives from each camp almost had their eyes widened, fearing that the other party would seize their rights and interests.

The person sitting in the main seat is the king's aunt.

"Foreign Minister Han Jingtong, please see the heroic lady."

Mrs. Yinglie said calmly, "Excuse me, tell me, what do you mean by coming to our country these three times? If it is for the sake of collusion, forget it. The king has been lying on his bed for a long time, and he is already powerless."

Han Jingtong bowed deeply and said loudly, "If the countries do not unite to fight against the Xia Kingdom, they will definitely bring harm to themselves. Jingtong sincerely asks the heroic ladies to work together with you to fight against the Xia Kingdom."

Although there were several factions vying for power in Fu Yan's court, there were many knowledgeable people, especially Li Lu. After seeing Yang Qian's cavalry, he was filled with worries.

Although he didn't fight with him, his strict military discipline and advanced armor made him, a veteran of many battles, look at him with suspicion.

Thinking of this, Li Lu couldn't help but stand up and said, "We, Shangguo and Liaoguo, have been fighting for years, but Xiaguo has been at war with each other. I thought that a merger could be considered."

Mrs. Yinglie nodded with a smile, giving Li Lu enough face, but there was a cold look in her eyes.

In such a situation, the general who commands the army is a hot commodity. Everyone wants to get close to him, and there are even factions who want to win over him.

Another minister immediately spoke sarcastically and said, "Hahaha, our Shangguo has always had strong soldiers and horses, why should we be afraid of other Xia people?"

"Yes, our country, Shang, is a powerful country in the world. Xing and Liao are no match for us. Why should we be afraid of Xia?"

"Hmph, it's just the Xia Kingdom. If it wasn't for the Yanggu Pass, it would have been defeated long ago."

Han Jingtong's face darkened and his breathing became rapid. Looking at the situation in the world, he always felt that there was a big hand that seemed to be controlling it, and it was really a ghost.

If Liao Guo cannot be persuaded, then the idea of ​​​​joining the vertical can only be shelved. The next time it is proposed, who knows how many years will it be.
