Ever since he met Wang Dachui and learned that Wang Dachui had a secret code system that could add bugs to his own system with a portable space card, Zhou Yi had never recharged his system.
Now Zhou Yi and Wang Dachui jointly govern the three states of Yongzhou, Qingzhou, and Liangzhou. The people in these three states have long used the banknotes issued by Zhou Yi. No one uses the paper money issued by Zhou Yi anymore, which is bulky and inconvenient to change. silver.
What's more important is that when the silver is cut in change, it will become smaller and smaller, and it will cause fire consumption when the government takes it back and recasts it. However, there is no fire consumption at all when using the banknotes issued by the Book of Changes.
So now not only Yongzhou, Qingzhou, and Liangzhou, the three states ruled by the Yi, but also other surrounding states and even the capital, have begun to use banknotes printed in Yongzhou.
The four major banks opened by Zhou Yi also collected more and more money, at least hundreds of millions of taels of silver.
However, in order to ensure the circulation of goods, Zhou Yi did not put all the money into the system.
This time, because of Yan Kuan's incident, Zhou Yi got 20 million taels of silver in vain.
Although Zhou Yi's system space still has a lot of space due to the secret code exchange with Wang Dachui, Zhou Yi decided to compensate the system and recharge all the money he picked up almost in vain into the system.
In addition, Zhou Yi will attack the Xiongnu grassland after spring starts in two months. If he can get more powerful weapons and equipment, then this battle can be pushed all the way.
Zhou Yi only plans to charge 10 million taels of silver this time. As for the other gold worth 10 million taels, Zhou Yi plans to give it all to Wang Dachui and let him buy some high-quality Dawan horses from the Dawan Kingdom in the Western Regions for breeding.
After Zhou Yi called the system, the ten million taels of silver instantly turned into a stream of silver light and penetrated into Zhou Yi's eyebrows.
I don’t know if it’s because charging money can make people stronger, but this time Zhou Yi pulled out saltpeter, sulfur, and instant noodles partner-ham sausage.
Saltpeter, sulfur and the charcoal that Zhou Yi had extracted before, isn't this proper black powder?
Zhou Yi, who has read countless time-travel novels, already knows the proportions of mononitrate, disulfide, and wood carbon used in making black gunpowder. Unfortunately, he lacks chemical talents and cannot mine saltpeter and sulfur in the three states. Zhou Yi did not think of dismantling the fireworks for a moment, so Zhou Yi's plan to make gunpowder was also delayed.
Although the saltpeter and sulfur currently issued by the system overlap with fireworks, this has made Zhou Yi put the black powder plan on the agenda.
Zhou Yi brought a piece of drawing and started to write and draw. After he finished drawing the sample, he asked Qian Xiaohao to invite Gongsun Zhu for him.
Since Gongsun Zhu joined the Ordnance Institute of Zhouyi, he has been immersed in it every day and never tired of it.
With the rebar provided by Zhouyi, his Gongsun Zhuang weapons were better than the last.
This time he was called by Zhou Yi. He originally thought that Zhou Yi wanted him to help build a weapon suitable for him, but after seeing Zhou Yi's drawings, he was disappointed.
Gongsun Zhu didn't understand why Zhou Yi wanted him to build a batch of such things.
However, since it was his lord's wish, Gongsun Zhu had no choice but to try his best to cast it for him according to Zhou Yi's requirements.
Originally, Gongsun Zhu thought that Zhou Yi only needed to forge one of those weird-looking weapons, but he didn't want Zhou Yi to let him do whatever he could from now on.
Such a move made Gongsun Zhu even more confused.
When Gongsun Zhu asked Zhou Yi the reason, Zhou Yi mysteriously refused to explain, which made Gongsun Zhu feel like a cat scratching his heart.
So someone secretly arranged for a team of people to make black powder. This time the level of confidentiality was even higher than the last time Marco was asked to make glass. This work is known only to Zhou Yi and a very small number of people.
After giving all these instructions, Zhou Yi suddenly heard Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai asking for a meeting.
It has to be said that since Liang Shanbo and others helped Zhou Yi handle the government affairs of Yongzhou, he was finally able to get away from these messy matters and take charge of military power.
Now Zhouyi only needs to take care of military power, which is much easier than before.
Jiang Yunsheng came with Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai. When the three of them entered the tent, Zhou Yi quickly stood up to greet them.
Liang Shanbo showed a look of embarrassment on his face when he saw Zhou Yi.
Zhou Yi's heart tightened and he quickly asked: "The Xian couple and Yun Sheng came together, but what troublesome event happened in the city?"
Liang Shanbo shook his head in embarrassment. He wanted to say something but couldn't.
At this time, Zhu Yingtai, who was next to Liang Shanbo, saw that her husband was having difficulty speaking, so she said, "I'd better speak for my husband!"
"To be honest, my husband and I are here to ask the general to resign."
Zhou Yi couldn't help being shocked after hearing this.
"Ah? Why did the Xian couple suddenly resign and leave?"
"But what did I do not do well enough? Or did I let the virtuous couple feel wronged?"
Liang Shanbo quickly shook his head and said helplessly: "It's not what the general thought. General, you have done well enough for me. My husband and I have never been wronged in the slightest in Yongzhou."
"It's just that a few days ago, my mother wrote a letter saying that my father missed me and Yingtai day and night, and worked hard day and night, making him sick from overwork. He has been ill recently and is bedridden, so..."
Speaking of this, Liang Shanbo was choked and speechless.
Zhou Yi quickly stepped forward and patted Liang Shanbo on the back to help him calm down his inner excitement.
"It is a great tragedy in life that a tree wants to be quiet but the wind does not stop, and a child wants to be raised but cannot be cared for by his relatives. Although I do not want to let go of heroes like Shan Bo, I will never let you be stigmatized as unfilial."
"only…"
Just thinking that after Liang Shanbo left, his things might increase again, I couldn't help but choked up.
"I really can't bear to part with Shanbo..."
As he spoke, Zhou Yi burst into tears again as if he was possessed by Liu Bei.
Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai could not help but cry quietly when they saw Zhou Yi showing his true feelings.
It is said that thousand-mile horses often exist, but Bole does not always exist.
Everyone has gotten along very well over the years, and Zhou Yi respects their ideas when it comes to handling political affairs.
In the eyes of Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai, Zhou Yi was not only a bole who could recognize a thousand-mile horse, but also his acquaintance during Boya's childhood.
Now that Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai are leaving Yongzhou, they are really reluctant to leave.
Zhou Yi sighed again and quickly told Qian Xiaohao next to him: "Brother Shanbo is going back to his hometown in the south of the Yangtze River. You should prepare some of our Yongzhou specialties for him. In addition, arrange 50 elite riders. Be sure to send Shanbo to his hometown." The couple was sent back to their hometown safe and sound."
