The minting of new coins really started a trend.

With the rise of this money-making trend, war recruitment throughout the Tang Dynasty also became smoother.

…

In the north of the Tang Dynasty, there are the Youyun states.

At this time, inside the city, there is a main hall behind the Youzhou Government Hall and the backyard.

"Ha ha ha ha……"

Suddenly I heard a hearty laugh, with Li Shimin's unique excited tone.

The majestic Emperor of the Tang Dynasty did not have a calm posture at this moment. Instead, he was dancing a little and was as excited as a cheap child.

Opposite the emperor, Gu Tianya was sitting cross-legged, with a deliberate look of contempt on his face, as if he was very disdainful of the emperor's superficiality. He suddenly made a sarcastic comment and said in a "snarky" tone: "Everyone, take a look, this is our Tang Dynasty."

Emperor, look at his excited posture, there is absolutely no imperial majesty at all..."

Although his words were said in a "snarky" tone, everyone knew that they were just a joke between family members. The more he spoke in such a tone, the more he seemed to have no bad intentions.

As expected, Li Shimin had no anger at all, but the emperor immediately launched a counterattack, glaring and said: "Do you want to take care of it? There are so many things going on. I'm so excited, what can you do? If you don't accept it, let's go out and practice?"

The same thing again?

Go out and practice every now and then...

This is clearly bullying people with force.

Gu Tianya sneered and muttered angrily, "Shameless."

Li Shimin didn't care.

At this time, I heard someone laughing next to me, but I saw Li Jiancheng also sitting cross-legged, and said in a gentle tone: "You two guys, it seems that you can't get enough without quarreling every day. One is the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, and the other is You You

Lord Yun, if outsiders look at you like this, you two will be embarrassed."

The eldest brother opened his mouth to teach him a lesson, and Li Shimin and Gu Tianya quickly restrained themselves.

At this time, there was another person in the hall, and it was Zhao Ning who was holding the tiger cub. As the only woman in the room, she had to smooth things over in this situation, so she quickly said: "Second brother is mainly because he is too happy, so he

He seemed a little excited. Although it is not in line with the majesty of the emperor, after all, only his own family members can see this scene..."

Zhao Ning paused for a moment while speaking, and then started talking about Gu Tianya again, saying: "As for my Tianya, he naturally has good intentions. The court meeting is about to begin, and he has the responsibility to remind the second brother to pay attention to calmness. Otherwise, the second brother just

When the ministers see his excited posture, it will indeed give people a feeling of overwhelming imperial power."

Li Jiancheng took the opportunity to laugh again, nodded warmly and said, "What Third Sister said makes sense, you two listen carefully."

Gu Tianya let out a laugh, then stopped talking.

Li Shimin was slightly resentful and couldn't help but defend: "I was so excited just now that it better reflects the joy of the emperor. As the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, I have the responsibility to benefit the people, so I continue to hear

After the two pieces of good news, I couldn’t help but dance with joy.”

Everyone in the palace knew that he was a tough talker.

But after all, they had to give the emperor some face, so they all said: "Yes, yes, Erlang (second brother) is right."

Li Shimin's face twitched, and he heard that his family's tone was clearly perfunctory.

However, the emperor was not angry. Instead, he showed the same excited attitude as before. Suddenly he walked up to Gu Tianya, his face almost touched Gu Tianya's face, and he said with straight eyes: "You bastard, you

Aren't you excited at all? In the past few days, letters have been sent from various places, reporting on the progress of the recruitment of soldiers. There are 1,300 Zhechong mansions in the entire Tang Dynasty, and almost every Zhechong mansion has completed its recruitment..."

The emperor paused and then continued: "It has only been half a month, but the entire Central Plains has completed the recruitment. The next step is for the armies from all over the country to break up their camps and go north. By the time they gather in Youzhou, they have already

It became an army of 300,000 people. And it was accompanied by civilians, which was also a huge army of 300,000 people."

He paused again, and then continued: "A total of 600,000 people, what a huge scale? However, from recruitment to gathering, it took only half a month. This speed of recruitment is simply the fastest in ancient and modern times. You brat, can't you

Not excited at all, don’t you feel proud at all?”

"Why am I so proud?"

Gu Tianya rolled his eyelids, hummed and said: "You are the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, and I am just Lord Youyun. Even if the speed of recruiting soldiers this time is the fastest in ancient and modern times, this honor will not be withheld at all.

On my head. If there is any record in the history books of later generations, all the praise will be given to you as the emperor. When the time comes, historians will write a sentence about Ming Jun of the Tang Dynasty, and your reputation will be spread for thousands of years. And me? Why should I be excited?

?”

Li Shimin looked miserable.

He also knew that what Gu Tianya said was reasonable.

But the emperor did not admit defeat at all, and immediately raised another issue, saying: "What about the implementation of the newly minted coins? You should feel proud of this matter. Looking at the past dynasties, the implementation of new coins is extremely difficult.

Not only are aristocratic families secretly holding back, but there is also resistance from the common people. However, our new currency is completely different, and now there has been a fanatical trend everywhere..."

The emperor paused for a moment when he said this, and his tone became obviously incredible, and then said: "Who is willing to believe it, who can believe it. It is obvious that the new currency has not yet begun to be minted and released, and you just released the news about it.

, However, no matter the wealthy family or the common people, they are already gearing up and preparing to rob."

This time, Gu Tianya did not sneer at Li Shimin.

Instead, he sighed softly and said with emotion: "Yes, they are ready to rob like crazy."

Li Shimin immediately added, "This is the people's heart."

He looked at Gu Tianya and said: "In just half a month, people's hearts have been surging. Isn't this enough to excite you? Isn't this not enough to make you proud? You haven't even started to mint coins yet, but the world

The people have been waiting eagerly for this. If you compare this with the royal families of the past dynasties, I am afraid that all the royal families in the past and present will have to say a word of admiration to you..."

The emperor paused again as he spoke, then suddenly pointed at himself and said again: "Even I, the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, actually want to say a word of admiration in my heart. Our Li family also made new achievements after the founding of the country.

However, after ten years of implementation, it still failed to achieve what it wanted. Compared with you, this move is completely different."

Li Shimin's words obviously came from his heart, and his tone showed sincerity.

Unfortunately, Gu Tianya sighed again.

Just when the emperor was slightly puzzled, Gu Tianya slowly stood up from the cushion. He put his hands behind his hands and looked outside the hall door, looking at the dawn that was about to dawn. He said softly: "Second brother, you know, in fact, the people want

Not much. The reason why my implementation of coinage is so smooth this time is just two words. And it is precisely because of these two simple words that all the people in the world happily accept it."

He paused for a moment before speaking, and then spoke softly again, saying slowly: "These two words are sincerity."

uh-huh?

Sincerity!

Li Shimin was obviously startled, and then his face looked thoughtful.

But listening to the emperor's thoughtful words, he also said softly: "Yes, sincerity. When our Li family minted coins before, we actually adopted the method of missing a pound and short a pound for the sake of profit. This method of casting money and stealing copper seems to be an advantage.

In fact, you have lost the support of the people for the sake of petty gains. As you said not long ago, the common people in the world have a steelyard in their hearts. Our coinage is short of a pound, so the people refuse to use it. Your coinage is used

There is a lot of copper, so the people are ready to rush for it."

The emperor looked out the door as he spoke, his tone vaguely revealing a hint of thoughtfulness, and added: "Even wealthy families are showing enthusiasm. Could it be that it is because of sincerity that even aristocratic families who put interests first can impress...

"

Gu Tianya chuckled, shook his head and said: "Second brother, what you said is wrong. How can you impress the aristocratic family with sincerity? For them, profit is paramount. If there is no profit to be made, who cares what you think?

Are they sincere or not? The reason why they are so enthusiastic is just to see how profitable the new currency is."

Li Shimin was startled for a moment, then nodded solemnly and said: "You are right, they are indeed not moved by sincerity. They still value profits. It is your money that can breed greed in them."

As the emperor spoke, he stretched out his hand, patted Gu Tianya's shoulder gently, and said with admiration: "You brat, I have to say that you are really mine. He was obviously just a money maker, but you did something unheard of.

For example, you were secretly sending people to spread the idea that newly minted money can increase in value, otherwise it would not have become a trend so quickly and made everyone excited in just half a month."

"And the special five thousand pieces of money. This move can be said to be a stroke of genius. Everyone knows that even if gold is added to this special money, it will not add much, but after some... um... some...

...In your words, it should be called speculation. After your hype, almost everyone was possessed by the evil spirit. This so-called special money only contains a little gold, but the value of minted money has been hyped by you.

It has been turned over a hundred times, but the key is that everyone is eagerly looking forward to it. The more wealthy the family, the more they want this thing."

"You brat, second brother, I'm going to do this for you."

Li Shimin's face was filled with admiration.

But Gu Tianya slowly shook his head and refuted him again: "Second brother, you are wrong again. The meaning of this special money is not just that it contains gold. If you can focus on the commemorative meaning, maybe you can understand why everyone

I will long to have it.”

He paused for a moment, then said again: "This"

…

The sky is getting brighter, so we should go to the morning of the morning as usual.

Some of the ministers who came to attend court could already be seen.

This is a main hall that was only built last year. It is currently considered the most magnificent building in the entire Youzhou City. In fact, it is the most magnificent, mainly because of the reference. Because the development time of Youzhou City is too short, there is still nothing

Buildings that are affordable...,

So after the palace was built, it immediately gave it a sense of grandeur that stood out from the crowd. To put it in a simpler way, it was like choosing a general among lame men.

But in fact, this hall can't really be called grand. At most, it only occupies a wide space and can accommodate hundreds of people to gather at the same time.
To be continued...
