Chapter 22: The Fall of the Hairpin and Fragrance (2)
.
Wu Quanzi kept begging for mercy, but Li Wei refused to listen and shouted: Come and bring me a pen and ink.
An eunuch brought paper, ink and pen to watch, Bier grind the ink for Li Wei. The young lady of the Zheng family stretched out her head curiously and watched Li Wei write.
She had heard many stories about this emperor, including the words at home, and the words outside, which is the words that the people in the family are more rational, and many stories are legendary. One of them is the word.
But she had never seen the emperor's handwriting.
The 28th girl is in her childhood, and she is curious about people and her words.
Brush!
Lines of large characters are written on white paper.
The handwriting still cannot reach Yan Zhenqing's height, but due to the influence of the environment in recent years, daily writing must be written in a brush, not like practicing in previous lives, but only for fun, and it has made great progress. The style of calligraphy with Yan Zhenqing has also undergone a slight change due to the different living environment of Yan Zhenqing's calligraphy... The same atmospheric and plump and powerful, less vicious and more charming and noble. It cannot reach the height of Yan Zhenqing's original character, but this character is also very well written.
Especially the noble character is the favorite of the people of this era.
I couldn't help but look at Li Wei again. It was not necessarily handsome. There were many young people in the family who looked more delicate than this emperor, but the kind of self-righteousness and confidence that was not angry, and the temperament of elegance and confidence were not something that the children in the family could have. I lost my spirit for a moment, and it was not until Li Wei finished writing it and looked at her accidentally, and realized that she had lost her composure. Her neck turned red again, and her pink face lowered again.
Uncle Zheng Lian was worried and happy when he saw his daughter's expression. His daughter liked this emperor 100% more. Once the marriage was successful, she would be happy. But the emperor spoke vaguely and could not grasp his attitude.
"Send to Dongdu." He called a guard and asked him to send him to Luoyang overnight.
"Your Majesty"... Wu Quanzi was still howling.
"Boom out!"
"Here!" The guard walked up and dragged Wu Quanzi away.
Just as this incident did not happen, Ji Wei turned to Uncle Zheng Lian and said, "Zheng Bi, it's too late, I don't know where to rest?"
"Your Majesty, if you cross the river from Huaizhou south, you can go straight to Xingyang. Can you let me accompany you...?"
"OK."
After silence, an eunuch took the father and daughter down to squeeze out the tent to rest.
There is also Liang Jinzhu, who has not spoken yet. Uncle Zheng Lian consciously stood up to say goodbye immediately when he knew something was wrong. The officials in Huaizhou also took the initiative to stand up and say goodbye. He also asked all the guards and eunuchs, leaving only a few wives and concubines, Li Yiyan and Liu Rengui, and the younger sister who refused to leave, then asked Liang Jinzhu: "Liang Qing, thank you for your hard work in the past few years."
"I dare to take it and get the appreciation of Your Majesty is a blessing I have cultivated for countless lifetimes."
"Don't be polite. In the past, Mengchangjun used roosters and dogs to steal, making him famous in history, but they are just minor paths, but you are promoting the great path for me... I won't say much more, have you seen the envoy of the hukou country?"
"When I saw it, I also sent them to the Shanghai ship as your Majesty, through Liuqiu Island, and to the Luguo. In addition, I also placed the weapons on the ship for about three or two months before reaching their country..."
Not only did he make an agreement, but Li Wei also secretly drew a small number of weapons, such as strong crossbows and powerful bows, some equipment for siege, and some small amounts of fire elixir. With the current technology of Lu Guo, even if he got it, he could not imitate it. But if he didn't come out, he started to communicate in advance, and almost all the advanced civilizations in the world were in this big communication circle. This also made Li Wei feel a sense of urgency.
For the Tang Dynasty, communication was more beneficial than disadvantages. If there was no communication, one day people would catch up, and the Chinese people would still be ignorant. However, the consequences of communication were also circulating. Li Wei believed in the wisdom of the Chinese people and their population advantages. However, since ancient times, the distorted Confucian theory and thoughts have become more and more conservative. Confucius had limitations, and the country of Lu was weak and the Spring and Autumn Period was in chaos. Therefore, he hoped to have a harmonious society with benevolence, high and low, orderly and tranquility, and a harmonious society with the Zhou royal family as the axis. It was constantly distorted and evolved into the current social system of noble and humble scholars, farmers, industry and commerce, which was not harmful. Comrade Zhu Xi came out, it would be even more harmful to the country.
This Confucian idea of being the only one can never make scientists, or those who are craftsmen who are now known as the people, and those who are capable of giving up their research. In this environment, no civilization can catch up. As long as they catch up, no matter how smart the Chinese people are, they will be quickly abandoned.
I remember a saying in my previous life that the distance of the cannon range is the distance of the country.
It would be fine if the fire ginger medicine did not appear. Once it appeared, it would not take two hundred years. No matter how confidential it was, it would inevitably be studied by other countries for the fire ginger medicine formula.
The crisis is here.
This is no easier to reverse the concept of the Chinese people than to find a countermeasure to annexation.
But before that, we must first use it to contribute to the country.
There were not many weapons sent, but they were all the most advanced weapons that the Tang Dynasty could not be copied, including catapults and car crashes. The emperor was moved by the Luo Kingdom today, and he would inevitably be moved. This country was bound by the island country and was very eager for the mainland. Li Wei even suspected that when he received news of the beasts by the river, would there be any ministers who would advise him to occupy the Silla Peninsula first, and then wait for the opportunity to wait for the chaos in the Central Plains like the Sui and Tang Dynasties to further attract more territory.
What Li Wei wanted was that they thought so, and such a big drama was staged.
He asked, "What was the reaction of that envoy of the hukou country?"
"Your Majesty, he saw these weapons and heard that His Majesty promised to sell them to the Kingdom of Lu. He was very surprised. He didn't understand what great god he called."
Li Wei stretched out his hand, and Liu Rengui would be willing to do so. He looked like an old naughty boy, and the two of them hit their palms.
"Your Majesty, but I have two questions.
"Tell me what questions I have."
"Once the transaction in the country of Lu, we don't have enough money and can only withdraw more than 100,000 gangster money. However, the transaction involves the money..."
"It's okay. When they come to trade, you have to remember one thing, come here without cash and real silver, don't agree. This country is shameless and will not return it if it owes debts. After a while, I will send someone to give you a price list. But you also need to prepare some money, especially ships. From now on, you must notify the various large shipyards in Quanzhou in advance to speed up the transaction speed. The country is still waiting for this batch of funds to rescue the emergency."
"Yes. I still have a question. If a large amount of gold and silver pour in, the price of gold and silver will inevitably drop."
If the price of gold and silver in the Tang Dynasty is not studied, it is difficult for ordinary people to accurately know their positioning. The Tang Dynasty's currency system was mainly copper coins, supplemented by cloth. Gold and silver are not circulating currencies, and are mostly used as utensils and jewelry, but they are very expensive. It may be exchanged in the cabinet, and gold is harder than silver.
To put it vaguely, one tael of silver is equivalent to one shred of money, and one tael of gold is equivalent to eight taels of silver. But the price varies. Most of them, one tael of gold is less than eight taels of silver, and one tael of silver is more than one gang of money. Sometimes when it is scarce, it can reach nearly two thousand copper plates.
Multiple prices will inevitably fall, and trading is realized with gold and silver, which is equivalent to trading at a loss. However, Li Wei still understands the simple economic theory. How to position it? The court can also regulate it. Since the beginning of the navigation, gold and silver flow to the Tang Dynasty gradually increased, and a large amount of silver from the hut country was obtained. Then the court can exchange gold and silver for a batch of money and silk for money... and then distribute it to various officials as salary. The top-down circulation is not only a vessel, but also an official currency. The amount used increases, and the standard of gold and silver will not fall. In this way, there is no need to force promotion, mobilize troops, causing some disadvantages.
This silent reform was also beneficial to the Tang Dynasty. The Tang Dynasty had little money and had to trade cloth. How much waste would it cost to understand in a year? There was no way to count it.
He said: "You don't have to worry about this, but you can tell the difficulties at that time. In addition, on the price list I give you, I will use this to suppress the silver price of people."
"Your Majesty is wise, I am far from that."
"You don't have to flatter me for the past few years..." Li Wei changed his voice and suddenly said, "I heard that you have one son who has not been engaged yet."
"Yes, he's still young, so there's no hurry."
"Does a woman from the five surnames and seven families want to marry?"
"Your Majesty, think about it..." He answered immediately, but he was stunned after answering. He was a small businessman, and no matter how much he thought about it, he would not agree.
Liu Rengui sweated and said, "Your Majesty, you can't do that."
If the older Xue Yuanchao was very noble since he was a child, he married the princess and sighed, "I regret not marrying women from five families in my life." If Li Wei forced the Zheng family to marry the woman to a businessman, what would the controversy arise like?
"Yes, your majesty, no."
"Liang Qing, I'll give it a try. I won't use strong means. I might give you a surprise and a surprise to the Tang Dynasty in the future." This abnormal Confucianism of the Tang Dynasty, which is respected by the Tang Dynasty and the grandeur of the family, will not change, which is very unfavorable to the future development of the Tang Dynasty. Of course, the chance of success is very small, and I said: "Whether it is successful or not, I just follow me to Xingyang. You are rushing all the way, so go down and have a rest early."
This is also a touchstone. Liang Jinzhu Ren Shang's name is now famous all over the world and follows him. In this case, the Zheng family in Xingyang is still rejected and did not allow him to enter the Zheng family, so there is no room for conversation.
"Here", Liang Jinzhu thanked Ling for crying.
"Your Majesty, don't," Li Yiyan also advised him hard.
"Li Qing, you have also seen how many officials are competent? How many farmers, businessmen, and commerce, and sects are competent? How many landlords are benevolent? In the past, the exclusion of merchants in Xiban was their behavior of ruling righteousness and seeking profit. But I don't understand what righteousness is and what profit is. Officials want to take office, become county magistrate, become governor, become minister, become minister, become minister, become minister, become minister, and become prime minister, and become prime minister (referring to Pei Yan). Is this profit? Those who are landlords have a hundred hectares of land, want a hectares, and want a tenant hectares in their hands. As a result, how many people have become tenants of their subordinates because of the various means of landlords, and their families are poor and poor? Have they ever thought about the future and thought about the country? I don't like it! I love people, use virtue and talent, and I don't like the aristocratic class! Li Qing, let me ask about virtue, how many scholars and farmers can match Liang Jinzhu in the world?"
"But your Majesty..."
"Li Qing, I know the right way. Can you succeed? Look at my hands..."
