Winter of the Sixth Year of Baijia
Suddenly, Young Master Si personally led two yellow-level Taoist soldiers to attack the neighboring county. They won three battles in three battles and robbed the population and wealth of the neighboring county. He paid off the 100 billion bonds issued in the first year of Baijia and continued Issue 100 billion development bonds.
Inspired by Gongzi Si, Han Gongzi Fei, Zhao Gongzi Wuxie and others also selected a county as a target to plunder.
In the end, the ten nobles plundered the ten counties.
This plunder basically took away population and wealth.
By the time the ten nobles left, there was nothing left in these ten counties except for a handful of nobles who saw the opportunity.
Although many nobles were angry, some nobles were relieved: the other party was just plundering, and was not trying to destroy the nest country.
But the happiness will not last long, because Yancheng is too powerful for the remaining nobles of the Chao Kingdom. The reason why the Chao Kingdom is not destroyed now is because the time has not come.
In an instant, the nobles of Chao Kingdom began to worry about gains and losses, and some began to prepare their escape plan in advance, letting their concubines quietly come to Yancheng with money to purchase real estate, purchase land, and accumulate industry in case of emergencies.
On the contrary, the ten great people had different choices. Taiping Dao chose the opportunity to practice the Dharma and comprehend the Heavenly Book. Therefore, the bonds of Taiping Dao had the highest price, and the bonds issued in the new issue were also the most popular. Easily raised 500 billion in the shortest amount of time.
Although Wang Jujun of Li County also has a spiritual treasure that he recognized as his master early on, Wang Jujun’s spiritual treasure is not a heavenly book that can be understood by anyone. Anyone can gain a lot from enlightenment. Wang Jujun’s spiritual treasure , is a piece of three hundred jade Ruyi. Even if you understand this kind of spiritual treasure, you may not be able to gain huge gains.
However, Wang Jujun studied under Kong Sheng and has a profound foundation. He has inherited many techniques and many types. Although there are no spiritual treasures for everyone to understand, the selection of various exercises is actually better. All the essence, energy and spirit are involved, and all types are available.
Therefore, although Wang Jujun did not raise 500 billion, he also raised more than 300 billion.
The situation of Shaobo Fan's co-governance of the county is even more different. This county emphasizes the co-governance of the country and claims to select the best. In fact, since the establishment of this county, it has been promoting it in various countries, promoting that this is the world's most powerful place. The safest place. It is recommended that rebels leave a way out here as soon as possible...
To this day, most of the Chinese people in the jointly governed counties are exiled nobles, down-and-out nobles from other countries, and real elites of the common people.
The average quality and average wealth are both the highest among all the people in the country who govern the county.
Therefore, this year, the People's Co-governance County easily repaid the principal plus interest of 100 billion, and continued to issue 100 billion development bonds with a five-year term and an interest of 10 points. It is exactly the same as in the past, so much so that the bonds of the jointly governed county have hardly increased in price.
As time went by, Lu Buwei's article spread further and further.
After reading it, some people felt that they had found like-minded people. For example, the wealthy businessmen and nobles of Qi State felt that Lu Buwei's ideas were in line with their appetites.
When Guanzi, a great sage, reformed the state of Qi, he used a lot of economic means, buying low and selling high, and it was Guanzi who led the destruction of Lu's industry.
When Guan Zi passed away, many nobles and wealthy businessmen in Qi State were affected by him. They were also the ones who understood the bond exchange best. In their eyes, the bond exchange in Yancheng was just a cash machine with too many loopholes.
As a result, many wealthy merchants and nobles from the Qi State brought their money and materials through the Xu State and came to Yancheng. They began to silently buy low and sell high, while defrauding the people of Lu of their money.
It is also a tradition for the nobles of the Qi State to defraud the old nobles of the Lu State.
100 billion yuan, for many small princely states, the total annual income may not be that much.
Even for a large vassal state, one hundred billion is not a small amount. It is a shame for a large prince like Yue State to have an annual income of less than one trillion yuan. However, the area of Yue State is so large that it instantly gives people the feeling that it is of no use.
However, when the amount of money reached 10 trillion yuan, Zhao Yang, the father-in-law of the Zhao family, frowned after seeing it. Zhi Yao, the Zhi family, also began to pay serious attention to the Yancheng Bond Exchange for the first time. And thinking about whether to build a similar bond exchange in Jin State...
And Lu Buwei's name also spread all over the world with this article.
All the vassal states in the world know that there is a cornucopia in Yancheng. If it is well managed, it can easily make profits of trillions every year. If it is exhausted, it may be possible to make profits of ten trillion levels in one go.
Is this a big deal?
Time has come unknowingly to the spring of Baijia's seventh year, and it is the spring plowing season again.
In the past, in order to show the importance they attached to farming, monarchs of various countries would go so far as to personally go to the fields to farm with their ministers when spring plowing arrived. Even today, all princes who want to save a little face will go to the fields before and after spring plowing.
Although times have changed, and there is no need to operate cattle to plow the fields as in the past, nor do we need to stand in the paddy fields to transplant rice, the essence of attaching importance to agriculture has not changed.
Therefore, today Jiang Hua sat in a large agricultural instrument and personally controlled the machine to start turning the soil.
At night, Jiang Hua stopped. At this point, this year's farming activities are over. Starting tomorrow, we will be busy with other government affairs.
Beside the campfire, Jiang Hua was chatting with an old man. There was a large iron pot in front of him, and he was stewing some pig bones, pork, wild vegetables, tofu, dried tofu... It was just a pot of hodgepodge. The only difference was this A little bit of spiritual spring is added to the pot hodgepodge.
While adding firewood to the iron pot, Jiang Hua asked the old man about his daily life.
"Is the old man celebrating his birthday this year?"
"Master, I am seventy-six this year. I have six sons. Three of them are still alive today. One died when he was young, one caused a demonic disaster when he became an adult, and one died in a war."
When discussing these, the old man was quite calm. People in this era are used to seeing life and death, especially the elderly like the old man. He knows what the real world is like. Only three sons died, and at least three sons are still alive. This is already Extremely lucky.
"Now, my youngest grandson, old man, has also joined the Yancheng Junior Academy this year and started learning characters, visualization methods, breathing methods, and Xiangtongquan. This is all your grace, my lord."
"In the past, only Chinese children could learn this kind of life. But now, many of the old man's grandsons and great-grandsons can also learn extraordinary knowledge..."
"Today, the old man's son, grandson, granddaughter, great-grandson, great-granddaughter, plus his daughter-in-law, grandson-in-law, etc., make up a large family of forty-two people. This was something that was unthinkable in the past. think!"
"Then, old man, who among your grandsons do you like the most?"
"Old man, what I like most is my second granddaughter. Although she is a girl and will get married in the future, she has been extraordinary since she was a child. When the Junior Academy was first established, my second granddaughter joined the Junior Academy in just a short time. She was born with magic power in two years and became a warlock. Last fall, when she was helping her family plow the fields, she understood the true meaning of the earth element and became a warlock. Now she has joined the senior academy in Yancheng. Listen to It is said that the teachers there are all Taoist priests, and some are even Taoist priests."
"My second granddaughter might become a Taoist priest in the future. In the past, she would have been a doctor. This will really honor our ancestors!"
The old man was very talkative and talked a lot. Sometimes he talks about his past life, sometimes he talks about the anxiety the whole family felt when they moved together after the Dao Extermination Order was issued, sometimes he talks about his stable life in the past few years, and most of the time he is very happy...
Looking at the smile on the uncle's face, you can tell that the uncle's life is really good.
A moment later, Lu Buwei suddenly appeared, standing in the distance. Jiang Hua knew that the rest time was gone and it was time to continue handling government affairs.
Whenever he is with the people at the bottom, Jiang Hua always feels relaxed. This may be because the politics in Yancheng are relatively clear now, and it is at a critical moment when Taoism is transformed into productivity. The people's lives are generally getting better and better, although there are many problems, but they have been covered up by development. Therefore, the lives of the people at the bottom are mostly full of hope, and their words are also very optimistic and positive.
This kind of optimism, positivity, even sunshine and self-confidence can always bring a lot of comfort to Jiang Hua, and the whole person's mood will be much better.
However, now that Lu Buwei is here, it means it is time to get to work. After finishing the offal in the bowl in a few mouthfuls, Jiang Hua gave the old man a bottle of rice wine: "Uncle, this bottle of rice wine is just for you. It's not a precious thing."
It's too precious, I can't control it, so giving it away would be a disaster rather than a blessing.
Immediately, Jiang Hua took out coupons one by one: "Uncle, this stack of coupons is a coupon with a discount of 100% or 50%. It can be used in all the properties of Junfu. The validity period of these coupons is Ten years, there are a total of two hundred sheets, and they are given to you, uncle."
"In the future, when you go out to buy rice or meat, you can bring one with you. As long as the total amount of goods purchased next time exceeds one hundred yuan, you can take out one and use it as fifty yuan..."
Two hundred coupons worth fifty are equivalent to ten thousand dollars.
If it were Yancheng in the era of Jiang Hua's father, Jiang Yan, ten thousand dollars would be a big sum, and it would be a big sum of money to many common people. But for the common people who have been under the rule of Baijia for seven years in Yancheng, ten thousand dollars cannot be said to be a small thing, but at most it is only a medium meaning.
After giving away the coupons, Jiang Hua left completely.
