"What is an ID card?"
Zhao Chongyuan looked at Gouwa with a strange expression.
His son has come up with quite a few weird things.
Even he, the emperor, had never heard of it.
Wang Lishi on the side was also confused.
There was a population survey in all dynasties of Daqian Dynasty, counting the number of households in the country to facilitate the court to collect taxes, basically once every ten years.
But what is this ID card?
He, the great eunuch who is the chief eunuch of the Supervisor of Ceremonies, has never heard of it.
"it is this."
Gou Wa showed off and took out something similar to a token from his arms. There was a large word "You" engraved on it, and under the word "You" there was a line of small characters engraved, which should be the address of Gou Wa's home. .
But the only special thing is that on this token, a human-headed elephant is ingeniously printed, which exactly looks like Gouwa.
"That's it?"
Wang Lishi took a look. He thought it was something, but he didn't expect it to be a simple token. The only special thing was that it had a personal avatar.
"This thing is easy to make. There are countless skilled craftsmen. It is very simple to make this thing."
Wang Lishi said nonchalantly.
There is nothing special about the token. It is just a rubbing of a person's head, which takes a little time and effort.
"Do you think it's easy?"
The herdsman looked at the smile on Wang Lishi's face and said with the same smile: "I'm not afraid to tell you the truth. In fact, not only do you think this thing is simple, but even the Nanchen Beiliang garrison next door to Youzhou also thinks it is simple. Guess what happened?"
"What's wrong?"
Wang Lishi frowned and looked at the herdsman subconsciously.
"In the end, His Highness the King of Yan saw through it, and the spies sent in had their hands and feet cut off by His Highness the King of Yan. They were made into human pigs and hung on the top of the city. For three days and three nights, the blood flowed and dyed the city wall red. .
As he spoke, the herdsman looked Wang Lishi up and down.
Wang Lishi's heart went crazy when he saw it.
Make him a human pig, cut off his hands and feet, and hang him on top of the city for three days and three nights?
Thinking about that scene, Wang Lishi had a creepy feeling.
Zhao Chongyuan looked at the herdsmen with interest and asked with a smile: "What happened next?"
"Later? Later, Nanchen and Beiliang were naturally unwilling to give in."
The herdsman sneered and said: "But it's a pity that our Highness, King Yan, saw through them and made them into human pigs and hung them on the city wall. After going back and forth, as time went by, those spies from Nanchen and Beiliang naturally didn't dare to do it. As for that He didn't even dare to ask about the secret of making the crossbow.
Moreover, His Highness King Yan said that the purpose of this continuous crossbow is to protect youzhou. We will not invade others, but we are not afraid if they come.
What did the original words come from? "
At this point, the herdsmen were a little stuck.
Gou Wa added: "Friends come with fine wine, and jackals come with big sticks. Whether to do business or fight, let the people of Nanchen and Beiliang make their own decisions."
"Well, when a good friend comes there is wine; when a jackal comes there is a stick."
Zhao Chongyuan laughed loudly when he heard this.
The more he thought about Zhao Ding's words, the more satisfied Zhao Chongyuan became.
Friends come with fine wine, and wolves come with big sticks. Whether to do business or fight, let the people of Nanchen and Beiliang make their own decisions!
Such arrogance!
Even his father, who is an emperor, is not as good as him.
The sword can hurt the enemy, but it can also frighten the enemy.
Whether you use it or not depends on how you do it.
If you are tough, we will be tough. If you talk nicely, then we will sit down and do business.
But when I thought about it, Zhao Dingran complained to him all day long in the memorial.
Zhao Chongyuan was angry again.
What a good boy, why are you hiding your clumsiness with him?
what.
Are you afraid that your father will covet your three melons and two dates?
"But I need to take some of this continuous crossbow back with me. It's best to get the secret to making the ID card and the method to identify the authenticity."
Zhao Chongyuan pondered secretly in his heart.
This time, his visit to Youzhou was really not in vain.
I didn’t expect that my son would come up with such a fun thing.
As for whether Zhao Ding would give it or not, Zhao Chongyuan never thought about it.
If you dare not give it, I will break your legs!
"By the way, where are these benefactors coming to Youzhou this time?"
At this moment, the herdsmen suddenly looked at Zhao Chongyuan and Wang Lishi and asked tentatively.
Let’s talk until now.
He could see it too.
This group of people should be headed by Zhao Chongyuan and Wang Lishi, and even his own nephew seems to be just the bodyguard of this group of people.
"Business."
Zhao Chongyuan was in a good mood.
I am sure that my son is not a collaborator with the enemy and the country, but he is doing everything for the people of the fiefdom, and he is both strong and soft towards Nanchen and Beiliang.
Zhao Chongyuan's tone became softer when he spoke.
Wang Lishi on the side also looked sideways as he listened.
Since His Majesty ascended the throne, he has been plagued by internal and external troubles and it seems that he has not been so happy for a long time.
"It's business, that's good."
The herdsmen also laughed loudly when they heard this, "We don't talk about other things in Youzhou, but we have a lot of all kinds of weird things. We have everything. In recent years, our Youzhou has been so rich because of the King of Yan." It’s all thanks to His Highness’s work on those weird and weird things.”
As he spoke, the herdsman took out a transparent glass from his sleeve and placed it in front of Zhao Chongyuan's eyes: "Did you see this? This was also done by our Highness, King Yan. It is not valuable in Youzhou, but I heard that it can be stored in other places." It’s so valuable, I heard that even the royal families in Nanchen and Beiliang are proud to have this cup made by our Highness, King Yan.”
"Master, isn't this a glass cup?"
Looking at the almost transparent cup that the herdsman took out, Wang Lishi looked startled and subconsciously picked up the exquisite brocade box from his sleeve.
Open the lid and reveal a transparent device that is exactly the same as the herdsman.
It's just that the style is a little different from what the herdsmen have.
But the material is almost the same.
This is the Zhao Chongyuan that the Goryeo royal family paid tribute to them last time. It is extremely precious. It is said that the skilled craftsmen of Mobei took out natural crystals from under the tens of thousands of icebergs and took three years to create it.
Crystal clear and extremely pure.
Once he paid tribute, he was deeply loved by the empress and princess in the palace.
Zhao Chongyuan rewarded him with one in view of his meritorious service for many years.
Even now, he has not been willing to use it. He basically just carries it with him and wants to take it out to play with it.
But now I look at the cup in the herdsman’s hand, and then look at the cup in my own hand.
For a moment, Wang Lishi felt like a dog.
No, I am a eunuch...
Then kill the dog!
"Where did you get this?"
Zhao Chongyuan also looked at the cup in the herdsman's hand with a look of disbelief.
This thing was paid tribute by the Goryeo royal family, and only the royal family could use it. Even the dignitaries in the capital didn't have it in their hands, and they couldn't buy it with money.
Whether he can get it depends on Zhao Chongyuan's mood.
Mainly because this object was made of natural crystal by the craftsmen of the Goryeo royal family.
The quantity is extremely rare.
If one is broken, one is missing.
But now? ?
"What a glass cup? It's just a glass cup. This thing is much older in Youzhou and it's worthless.
The herdsman corrected him indifferently.
He looked at Zhao Chongyuan and Wang Lishi with contempt.
After all, he is a foreigner and has no knowledge.
"A lot? Not valuable?"
Zhao Chongyuan pouted, his eyebrows almost furrowed into the character "Chuan".
Deep down in my heart, I almost spit out a mouthful of old blood.
Although the Goryeo royal family paid tribute, the Daegan royal family also paid tribute in return to show the majesty of the great country.
Fold down.
This cup costs almost a thousand taels of silver...
I'm **** (swearing)
I won’t do any translation here, but in short, it’s okay to curse very dirty words...
"Master, I was..."
Wang Lishi was so anxious that he almost cried.
Those boxes of real money were deceived like this.
He, Wang Lishi, the dignified official, the ceremonial supervisor, the palm print eunuch, actually took a worthless thing as a treasure?
The herdsman looked at Wang Lishi and Zhao Chongyuan with a frown, and asked subconsciously: "Why is this thing so valuable in other places? I use this for urinals at home, how about I wipe it for you and sell it to you cheaper?"
"Uh~~~~~"
A row of clear dots appeared on Wang Lishi's forehead.
Urinal? ?
Sell for money?
Still selling it cheap?
How dare you say it?
"Forehead..."
The herdsman laughed awkwardly, seeming to realize that his joke just now seemed to go too far.
He quickly explained: "I can't really blame you for that, the main reason is that our Youzhou is located in a remote area, separated from the outside world by hundreds of thousands of mountains, and good things cannot be transported out, so we can only benefit from the merchants passing by.
It will be good if you see more in our Youzhou in the future.
In fact, this thing is not worth much in Youzhou. One penny can buy a lot of it. If I hadn't disliked that this thing is too fragile, I would have wanted to replace the troughs of my cattle and sheep with this one, mainly just to get a bargain. . "
puff!
Wang Lishi was so depressed that he wanted to vomit blood.
I thought the herdsmen were here to comfort him, but unexpectedly...
Well, don’t blame those who don’t know, and don’t blame those who don’t know.
Wang Lishi comforted himself over and over again.
But when he thought that something he couldn't bear to use was used as a urinal, he even disliked the animal's trough.
The throbbing pain in his heart couldn't stop.
Zhao Chongyuan's expression on the side was also not very good.
The majestic Chinese character face was so gloomy that water could drip from his eyes at the moment.
He finally understands.
Why in the past two years, Goryeo has said that this thing is difficult to find, and at the same time, it has continued to increase the frequency of tribute.
Every time, several carts of these so-called colored glass cups were slowly pulled out.
Dare you think that Zhao Chongyuan was taken advantage of?
Good on you, Goryeo royal family.
I'll settle the score with you when I get back!
Seeing that Wang Lishi's face looked strange, Erwazi quickly coughed and said, "Uncle."
Seeing his nephew winking, the old herdsman also looked confused.
He didn't seem to say anything?
Why did it become like this?
Clearing his throat, the old herdsman quickly patted the dog next to him and cursed: "You weakling, what are you doing standing still? Why don't you quickly skin the cow and treat your benefactor to some meat? The benefactor is from out of town." We can't blame him for his lack of knowledge, we still have to fulfill our duty as landlords."
Listening to his uncle's words, Erwazi smiled bitterly.
This old uncle of mine is really good at comforting people...
However, he still took out the saber from his waist and went to skin the cowhide with Gouwa.
But looking at the busy figures of Gouwa and Erwazi.
Wang Lishi and Zhao Chongyuan were not in the mood at all.
The two of them sat on the ground with blank eyes...
