When Feng Yibo mentioned Donghai County to Li Shouzhong today, he naturally did not want to reveal his identity.
In addition to explaining the minting of coins, he also took the opportunity to characterize his relationship with the King of Donghai County in the Li Shou Center.
He wanted Li Shouzhong to understand that the relationship between Feng Mansion and Donghai County was mutually beneficial.
But, he is the main one.
Of course, these words can only be said to Li Shouzhong.
Li Shouzhong had long been aware of the relationship between Feng Mansion and Donghai County, but he didn't ask in depth.
It's not that he doesn't want to know, he's just waiting for Feng Yibo's explanation.
Now that Li Shouzhong heard that Donghai County was actually Feng Yibo's new policy pilot, the doubts he had always had in his mind were solved.
It turned out that this apprentice had planned the New Deal a long time ago in a way that no one expected.
Such a result inevitably left Li Shou with mixed emotions.
The apprentice has grown up, and some seemingly impulsive decisions have a purpose behind them.
As a teacher, I can no longer keep up with the other party's pace.
Then, we can only give a little reminder in the general direction.
Because of this, Li Shouzhong reminded him to put Wei's interests first and not to get lost in maintaining the relationship with Donghai County.
Feng Yibo naturally understood what the teacher meant.
In the end, the conversation between master and disciple ended with Feng Yibo being taught.
Li Shouzhong did not ask in depth about how to conduct a pilot project in Donghai County.
When it is implemented in Da Wei in the future, he will take action and grasp the general direction.
As for Donghai County, let the disciples try boldly.
Subsequently, the matter went as Feng Yibo wished.
At the court meeting, neither Li Shouzhong nor Chen Qinzhi raised any objections.
The gold and silver coins minted in Donghai County were approved to be put into use directly, and Zhao Shunjun's coinage proposal was also successfully passed.
The Ministry of Revenue and the Ministry of Works began to discuss the details of minting coins.
Soon after, Feng Yibo saw a sample of the Wei silver coin.
The newly minted silver coin of the Wei Dynasty is called Xuanzhi Yuanbao.
In order to put it into use as soon as possible and take over the Black Dragon coins that have already been used.
Xuanzhi Yuanbao is designed based on the Black Dragon coin in all aspects.
The first is the weight, which is seven cents and two cents.
In order to be able to play the music, the Ministry of Works specially sent a letter to the Ministry of Etiquette.
Please ask Feng Yibo for help asking about the silver content ratio of Black Dragon coins!
The patterns on the silver coins are also similar.
The Heilong Mansion uses patterns of sitting dragons and auspicious clouds, with the words "one silver dollar" written on the front.
It is written around it that "one silver dollar can be worth a thousand coins, made by the Governor of Heilong Mansion in Donghai County".
The Ministry of Industry of the Wei Dynasty created a dragon pattern representing the royal family, with a dragon ball coiled in the middle.
The big characters on the front are "Xuanzhi Yuanbao", and the small characters at the bottom are "The first year of Xuanzang of the Wei Dynasty."
Emperor Jingshun just received the lunch box this year, so he can only change his yuan next year.
This also means that the real Xuanzhi Yuanbao will not be officially put into use until next year.
These are all similar, but there are two differences that are visible to the naked eye.
That is the smoothness of the surface and the fineness of the texture.
The black dragon coin is formed by hydraulic stamping in one go. Its surface is as smooth as a mirror, and it looks white under the sun.
The sitting dragon pattern is also detailed into the texture, and the dragon's scales and auspicious clouds are clearly visible.
The Xuanzhi Yuanbao is cast using traditional craftsmanship. Like copper coins, it has a matte surface and looks dull at first glance.
The dragon pattern decoration is uneven, but relatively speaking it is not that fine.
There was no way, no matter how hard the Ministry of Industry tried, it couldn't figure out how to mint such silver coins.
Even if he asked Feng Yibo again for help, the answer he received only said that it might be a problem with the heat.
In the end, the matter came to an end.
Whether it's the Ministry of Household Affairs, the Ministry of Industry, or even the Cabinet.
All of them feel that it is slightly rough and does not affect the use.
After this matter came to an end, the Ministry of Industry confirmed the ancestral money, made another batch of mother money, and handed it over to various workshops for molding and smelting.
The Ministry of Industry took the lead and began to mint silver coins on a large scale.
The black dragon coins received by the Ministry of Accounts are also being put into use one after another, not to mention.
On this day, Feng Yibo was rarely at home with Xiu Mu and was talking to Baochai.
Just as he was talking, the woman from the second door came over and reported:
"Uncle, madam, the door said that the King of Korea came to visit during the season. I heard that the uncle didn't see any visitors, so he left a letter and four women and left."
"Li Song?"
When he heard that the King of Goryeo had sent someone over, Feng Yibo remembered that he still had cavalry training on Jeju Island, and he didn't know what was going on.
This time when the Black Dragon Coins were delivered, the people from Donghai County came and went in a hurry and didn't take them into consideration.
As the hostess, Baochai obviously heard something different. She said doubtfully:
"What happened to the four women?"
The woman smiled and replied:
"From what I heard, she might be a Silla maid."
Silla maids and Kunlun slaves are both called slaves, and they are the slaves that the Tang Dynasty families compete to use.
It is said that the best Silla maids are not only gentle and pleasant, but also proficient in Chinese and even Confucianism.
"Nonsense, Silla is gone, where can the Silla maids come from?"
When Baochai heard this, he couldn't help but laugh and curse, and joked:
"At most it's Gao Liji."
Silla maid was a popular maid in the Tang Dynasty, and Gao Liji was the name of the maid in the Song Dynasty.
In fact, they are all specialties from the same place.
Feng Yibo read the autographed letter from King Li Song of Goryeo, which probably means:
I haven't seen you for a year and I miss you so much that I sent an envoy to pay tribute and stopped by to take a look.
There are no words to describe the great kindness and virtue of Goryeo in fighting against the Japanese.
This time, some young ladies from the minister's family who could speak Chinese were sent to serve the Marquis with food and clothing, in order to repay the original kindness.
After reading it, Feng Yibo couldn't help laughing and said:
"This Li Song is good. He is a repayment of kindness. Gao Liji asked the two uncles to pick one each. There are two left. Go and talk to Aunt Meng and ask someone to send them to Brother Lian and Brother Bao. Go ahead."
When Baochai heard this, he frowned slightly and said:
"You sent women to them again."
Feng Yibo smiled and was about to respond when he saw that the woman was about to leave. Then he remembered something and called her out:
"Wait a minute, Brother Lian should be more cautious in Dragon Scale Guard, so let's not give women away for now. Brother Huan is not young anymore, so let's give one to each of Brother Bao and Brother Huan!"
"yes!"
The mother-in-law resigned with a smile and went to find Aunt Meng.
Baochai waited for her to go out and said with a smile but not a smile:
"I thought I wanted to keep one!"
When Feng Yibo saw this, he hurriedly said seriously:
"Why should I leave them here? To inquire about information in our house?"
Seeing that Baochai was still looking at him with a half-smile, he smiled again and explained:
"Isn't this the case that the wealth does not flow to outsiders? The same goes for the Japanese women before. We do not accept foreigners in our house, especially those with interests."
Baochai nodded slightly and said:
"I thought you didn't like it, but it turned out that you were afraid of being planted as an spy."
Feng Yibo came over, gently hugged Baochai and said:
"If I want it, both the Japanese princess and the Korean princess will have to serve you, but in order to avoid unnecessary complications,"
He knew that Baochai was not jealous, but did not want to spoil the Xue brothers.
So he smiled and comforted:
"Needless to say, brother tadpole, my uncle has learned well in the past few years. He doesn't hang around outside. Occasionally giving him some sweet treats will prevent him from growing weary, right?"
Baochai pondered for a moment after hearing the words and sighed:
"Logically speaking, I shouldn't interfere with your men's affairs. However, my two brothers are not married yet, so it is not good to have too many women in the room."
Feng Yibo
"Don't worry, madam, I don't have to worry about it. Next time something good like this happens, I won't think about them anymore."
When Baochai heard this, he looked at him sideways and said:
"It's just a few foreign maids, nothing good."
This statement is obviously meant to reveal the truth, right?
Do you think they are good?
After becoming pregnant, her temperament became much more sensitive than before, especially when it came to women.
This made Feng Yibo a little dumbfounded, so he could only nod his head and said:
"Indeed, it is a good thing for those foreign women. We must not take advantage of them next time."
"Pooh!"
On the other side, the two Gao Liji were sent to Rong Mansion.
After Aunt Meng explained her intention, Mother Jia had Baoyu and Jia Huan called over.
Naturally, Baoyu picked one first, and then it was Jia Huan's turn.
However, this is enough for Jia Huan to be happy.
When Aunt Meng saw that the matter had been resolved, she took the people back.
Baoyu and Jia Huan happily took away the two Gao Liji.
For a moment, there were only a few women left in the room.
Jia Mu stopped her smile and snorted coldly:
"Last time he gave 50,000 new banknotes. He knocked them left and right. This time he gave two Gao Liji. What did he mean?"
After saying this, she paused, then narrowed her eyes slightly and said with some dissatisfaction:
"Are you mocking Rong Mansion for being so poor that it can't even afford a maid?"
When all the women heard this, their faces were a little embarrassed.
Especially Mrs. Xing thought that Jia Mu was beating her again.
This was not because she was being arrogant, but there were so many sarcastic remarks these days that she could no longer tell which words were wrong.
"Old lady, I have an idea."
Mrs. Wang suddenly made a sound, and everyone looked at her.
She bowed her head slightly towards Jia Mu and then said:
"The eldest daughter-in-law of the former Ning Mansion also said that it is convenient for us to enter the palace now, and the Queen Mother cannot come back to visit relatives now. The theater troupe in Lixiangyuan is raising a lot of money. She advised me to dismiss the teachers and distribute the young actors to each other. Order around the house."
The troupe of the Jia family was purchased during the wedding ceremony in Yuanchun.
Since then, Care and Care has been kept at Lixiangyuan, but is rarely used.
Now that Yuanchun has become the Queen Mother, the palace is almost the same as the back garden of Nvjuan of the Jia family.
At least Mrs. Wang no longer has to wait for a fixed time every month, but can go to the palace to meet her at any time.
However, the emperor is young, and the queen mother may not be able to leave the palace easily.
Therefore, this troupe is a bit useless.
Only when there is a festival or a birthday in the house, or someone invites a host, will the party be lively and lively.
"I've been thinking in the past two days that although these people were bought, these opera students are worse than the ones who can't be used. They are also the daughters of good families. They were sold out because of their incompetence and have been doing this job for several years. Now they have For this opportunity, why not give them a few taels of silver and let them go their separate ways. After all, our ancestors had this example in their hands back then. How can we be so stingy and corrupt our morals now? Although there are a few old ones still here, That was because they were unwilling to go back for their own reasons, so they kept us as servants until they were old enough to be matched with our young servants.
These days, servants of large families often use their own homes to have children.
Just like Yuanyang and Jin Chuan.
No matter how bad it is, at least he was bought and trained from childhood on how to serve him.
Just like Xiren and Qingwen.
It's too late to teach such a semi-adult person the rules.
Even if it is bought, according to the traditional rules of the Jia family, if it is not used, it will be voluntarily released.
I have to say that although the Jia family has a lot of waste, they are pretty good to their servants.
Otherwise, the attacker's mother would never have thought of begging Jia's mother for free.
Of course, when Mrs. Wang said this, she changed the topic and continued:
"But after all, it was bought back with thirty thousand taels of real gold and silver, and it has been well fed and fed in the past few years. Now that we owe the favor of the Marquis of Chu State, why not just let the troupe and a few of the opera troupes in Lixiangyuan An actor will send it over."
If you don't need it, you can put it aside and do a good deed.
But there are still things that are useful and should be used.
Obviously, disbanding on the spot would be better than paying Feng Yibo's 50,000 taels of favor.
The purchase price was thirty thousand taels. After raising it for several years and learning many new tricks, fifty thousand taels was reasonable.
Of course, if you sell it, you will definitely not be able to sell it.
But it can't be said enough to repay a favor.
Having said this, Mrs. Wang rarely showed a smile and asked:
"Not only does this save money, but it also repays his favor. What does the old lady think?"
She was very considerate and it was a win-win-win situation.
The Marquis of Chu's family was high-ranking and wealthy, so it was in line with his status to have a theatrical troupe.
The Rong Mansion was already unable to make ends meet, and was raided again, resulting in considerable losses.
Even if the troupe doesn't send people away, it still has to disband on the spot.
It is absolutely useless to use it to repay a favor.
After the troupe was disbanded, the actors were left helpless.
It is very likely that you will be sold again when you go back. Whether you live well or not depends entirely on luck.
They must all dream of being able to go to the Marquis Mansion of Chu State and continue to enjoy themselves and sing operas.
"this……"
Jia Mu was a little hesitant and a little reluctant to give up.
However, he also knows the difficulties in Rong Mansion now.
It is difficult to support a large family, let alone support a troupe that only eats but does not work.
However, she was still somewhat reluctant to give up her dignity.
Seeing her hesitation, Mrs. Wang smiled again and said:
"Actually, this is better than being sent away. After all, even though the person was given to the Feng Mansion, can they still not borrow it when the old lady wants to listen to the play?"
Although Feng Yibo came to knock on the door, he actually gave him money.
What's more, who doesn't know that the threshold of the Marquis Mansion of Chu State is high, and it is not an exaggeration to say that there are many things to do every day.
Even so, he still took the time to come and stand up for Daiyu.
Will he really fall out with Rongfu, the Empress Dowager's natal family and Daiyu's uncle's family?
What's more, Mrs. Wang learned about Feng Yibo's importance from the Queen Mother.
The Queen Mother almost never left Feng Yibo, and she urged them to listen to his opinions.
This time he sent two more Goryeo girls from the King of Goryeo, obviously with the intention of easing the relationship.
As the mother of the Queen Mother, how could Mrs. Wang not give her face?
So she borrowed flowers to offer to the Buddha and prepared to give the troupe to the prince's mansion in the state of Chu.
In addition to repaying the favor, it is also easing the relationship between the two governments.
As the saying goes: courtesy reciprocates.
As long as we keep moving around, the favor will never end.
"I don't even dare to measure him!"
After hearing what she said, Jia Mu smiled again and said:
"After all, it's the wife who can run the house. As you said, let's return his favor!"
