Big deal, really big deal.
At a casual glance, it is found that gold, silver, and treasure banknotes alone are worth hundreds of thousands of dollars, plus silk, porcelain, tea, and even calligraphy and painting ornaments, even the carriage used by Gusi Timur to travel, Lao Zhudu. Give him thorough consideration.
All in all, the value of all the things Lao Zhu rewarded Tuogu Si Timur this time was no less than three hundred thousand yuan, plus a royal palace as compensation.
In order to settle down Tuogusi Timur's family, Lao Zhu also worked hard to regain his health.
After hearing that the Ming Emperor had rewarded him with so many gifts, Togu Si Timur, who had been on tenterhooks for a long time, could finally breathe a sigh of relief and feel relieved. Since the Ming Emperor was able to reward him with so many things, it meant that he really had no intention of killing him.
This is what Lao Zhu is like. He can throw a lot of money at you when he needs it, but he can also be ruthless when he doesn't need it.
As the Bei Yuan incident settled, Lan Yu was also released. Moreover, Lan Yu was still granted the title of Duke of Liang, and was hereditary.
Han Du knew that Lao Zhu would definitely not be promoted to the nobility for him, so he attributed all the credit for catching Tuogu Si Timur and finding the imperial seal to Tang Ding and Xu Chengfei. The two of them were also granted the title of Marquis, and Tang Ding was granted the title of Marquis of Suyi.
"Gang Deke said solemnly: I will serve as his respected envoy until the end." Although Tang Ding was the eldest son of Duke Xin, he did not have the bad habits of a playboy. He has been learning to march and fight in the military camp since he was a child, and he has learned well. He did well under Xu Da, Feng Sheng, and Fu Youde, and because of Tang He's relationship, Tang Ding could be said to have been taught by famous generals, plus Tang Ding's guidance. Now Tang Ding has reached the threshold of a famous general. All that was missing was a hearty victory. Therefore, Gang De Kejiu is Lao Zhu's recognition of Tang Ding, and it is also Lao Zhu's promise to Tang He.
Xu Chengfei was named Kuang Yihou, "Zhen Xin Da Da said Kuang: the heart is upright and the use is to check the young man." Xu Chengfei was successful at a young age and was recognized by Li Wenzhong. He was naturally the best choice in terms of talent and knowledge. But Li Wenzhong died suddenly, and Xu Chengfei suddenly became a rootless person. However, Xu Chengfei, who had lost his backer, did not blame anyone, and did not even come to see Han Du. He just guarded the Shanzi camp and guarded the banknote bureau conscientiously.
Just imagine how important the banknote bureau of the banknote raising department is! If Lao Zhu didn't send someone to keep an eye on him, he would have trouble sleeping and eating. He naturally saw clearly how Xu Chengfei stayed at Shanzi Camp day after day and year after year. Xu Chengfei's attitude of not complaining about God and others was greatly appreciated by Lao Zhu.
Taking advantage of this great achievement, he was granted the title of Marquis Kuang Yi. Chaste and generous, this is Lao Zhu's evaluation of Xu Chengfei.
Yongchang Marquis' Mansion... No, it is now Liang Guogong's Mansion.
The palace of Liang Guogong changed from the previous sadness and silence and was filled with laughter and laughter.
After Lan Yu was imprisoned, everyone in the house was simply afraid of him. Even Zhu Biao's pleas failed to get the emperor to release Lan Yu, and the people in the mansion fell into despair. Even, they never thought that Lan Yu would one day be named Liang Guogong.
...
As the hero who captured Tianyuan Emperor Tuogu Si Timur and brought back the imperial seal, Han Du was naturally rewarded by Lao Zhu. But compared to others
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
, Lao Zhu's reward to Han Du seemed extremely shabby. It was not a title, nor gold and silver, but land outside the eastern suburbs of the capital.
"...Enjoy thousands of acres of fertile land in South Korea..."
Han Du knelt on the ground and listened to Lao Zhu's reward, his eyes suddenly became dissatisfied and his face looked ugly. Giving a thousand acres of land as a reward is better than not giving a reward at all. Isn't that just showing off to disgusting people?
Am I, Handu, the one who owns a thousand acres of land? The Han family has shares in coal mines and briquettes, as well as huge profits from the glass business. What's more, Han Du went to sea several times. Didn't he earn back a boatload of gold, silver and jewelry? Although the big head was sent to the palace and put into Lao Zhu's pocket, there were still some things that were not rare and were intercepted by Han Du.
After all, my hard work traveling overseas can’t be in vain, right?
Moreover, even the singers in Jiaofangsi made a fortune by buying maritime securities. Didn't Han Du buy much more than them that time?
One thousand acres of land may be a huge reward for ordinary people, but for Han Du. As long as he wants land, let alone a thousand acres, ten thousand acres, or even one hundred thousand acres, Han Du can buy it immediately.
Even if Lao Zhu rewards himself with a little gold and silver, it would be better than giving him this little land.
Han Du was not happy about it, but his parents were more excited about the thousand acres of land than anything else. The two people quickly thanked each other and pulled Han Du to kneel down together.
Even after receiving the imperial edict, the rewards given to the eunuchs were more than when he became a marquis.
The young eunuch took the reward with a smile, and several rolls of bundled banknotes. He didn't need to count just by squeezing the thickness of the banknotes. The young eunuch knew that each roll would not be less than a hundred rolls.
Since the credibility of treasure banknotes has been stabilized, people prefer to use treasure banknotes for ordinary transactions rather than silver and copper coins. There are so many benefits to using precious coins. Silver will turn black and copper coins will become moldy. Once the silver turns black, it needs to be remade, otherwise others will use the color to reduce the value of the silver in your hand. The same goes for copper coins.
Therefore, if the money in ordinary people's hands has not been spent for a long time, its value will actually decrease when it needs to be spent.
However, treasure banknotes do not have such evil disadvantages. No matter how long you keep them in your hand, they will remain valuable and will not lose a penny. This alone can make people choose treasure banknotes when making transactions, leaving silver and copper coins behind for the time being.
For this young eunuch, he also wanted the Han government to reward him with coins instead of gold and silver. Take the treasure banknotes in his hand as an example. He could pick up hundreds of treasure banknotes with one hand and put them back in his sleeve robe lightly. But if converted into silver, it would cost several hundred taels, and the weight alone would weigh dozens of kilograms. Even if he could move it, it would be inconvenient to hold it.
The young eunuch skillfully put the treasure money into his sleeve robe, looked at Han Du with a smile, bowed and said: "In accordance with the emperor's decree, please give the navy command talisman to the servant."
Han Du was stunned when he heard this, and for a moment he didn't realize what Lao Zhu meant. However, he still subconsciously listened to the eunuch's words, took out the command talisman from his arms, and handed it to the eunuch.
The young eunuch quickly straightened his expression, took it with respectful hands, and said apologetically to Han Du: "Master Marquis, I'm offended."
Finished

, bowed and bowed before returning to the palace with the command talisman.
Seeing the eunuch leaving, Han Du hadn't even turned around yet. What was going on?
Is Lao Zhu taking away his military power? Han Du shook his head imperceptibly, wondering how he had offended Lao Zhu and made him take back his military power.
Is it because he helped Lan Yu plead for mercy? But I don't even want to take credit for capturing Tuogu Si Timur and finding the imperial seal, so why can't I still take the credit for it? Besides, Lan Yu, the rightful owner, has nothing wrong with him, and he has been promoted to the title of Duke of Liang. Why should he have the blame hit on him?
Han Du curled his lips, complaining about Lao Zhu in his heart. But I didn't pay too much attention to it. Anyway, Han Du was not keen on military power. It was just because he had been in charge of the navy for a long time that he was a little uncomfortable with the military power being suddenly taken back.
He looked up and saw his parents' lips slightly parted, as if they wanted to say something to persuade him, but didn't know how to say it.
"Dad, Mom, what's wrong with you?" Han Du suddenly had a smile on his face and asked first.
Han De and Liu looked at each other, and finally Han De coughed, looked at Han Du and softly comforted: "Du'er, the emperor took back the navy command talisman, maybe it has another important use for you, you must do it" Don’t take it to heart.”
"Dad, Mom, did you see that I took this matter to heart?" Han Du felt helpless and didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
After hearing Han Du's words, Han De and Liu looked back at each other. Could it be that they really thought wrong?
However, Han Du always had something to say in front of them and never kept it secretive. Since Han Du said so, that's probably the case. Although the two of them didn't know why Han Du was so innocent, they just wanted to think about it. They were most afraid that Han Du wouldn't be able to think about it.
"It's good if it's not, it's best if it's not..."
Han Du looked at his parents who were extremely nervous and relaxed. He never guessed that they were worried that he would miss his military power and be reluctant to hand it over.
I have a damn thing that I can’t bear to part with!
Although I took the navy out to sea twice and made a lot of money both times, the hard work of ocean-going ships is also real. He is now the Marquis of Zhenhai in the Ming Dynasty. He is hereditary and has an estate.
It's not like those poor soldiers who still need to make a fortune by going to sea to make a fortune.
Instead of suffering that crime, wouldn't it be better to stay comfortably in the capital, eat, drink and have fun? If it weren't for the purpose of introducing Lao Zhu's vision and the vision of the savages of the Ming Dynasty to the sea, Han Du would not have gone to such trouble to tell people that there are rare treasures and massive wealth overseas.
Now the Ming Dynasty has established thirty-three governor's offices in Nanyang. Lao Zhu's wealth from these thirty-three governors every year exceeds 40 million yuan. Now even if someone wants Lao Zhu to ban the sea again, Lao Zhu will not Will not agree.
The rapid rise of overseas trade also allowed the people of the capital to see for the first time what visible growth in wealth looked like.
Now there are dozens of securities firms like Chang Hao. Anyone with an open mind and a broad vision will have the courage to invest money in securities firms. Then, just a few months later, you can take the bills to a store and exchange them for considerable wealth.
