As soon as the court discussion ended, not long after the ministers left the palace, in the afternoon, the edict of the Chu State on donating grain and obtaining the knighthood began to be announced in Yingdu, and spread to all parts of the Chu State and even abroad at a very fast speed.

And after the people of Yingdu learned that they only needed to donate 1,000 stone of grain to obtain the title of a national doctor, it immediately caused a sensation among the people.

Then, in the discussion of the Chinese people, in the doubts of the Chinese people, before the hour came, when the sun set in the west, Cai Yong, a Shangcai merchant who fled to Yingdu with the whole clan, directly transported 20,000 stone of grain from outside the city, transported it to the granary of Taifu in Yingdu, and pledged to donate to the same five doctors.

As the first person to eat crabs, Cai Yong was immediately summoned by the king of Chu, and at sunset, he left the palace directly wearing the clothes of the five great doctors, and surrounded by the Chu army that had already been prepared, rode a horse, and under the traction of a small official, he started a journey through the streets and alleys.

On a bustling street in Yingdu, Cai Yong, the newly promoted doctor with the fifth doctor, rode on a tall horse, laughing heartily, and even if he couldn't close his mouth with a smile, he had to greet the acquaintances on both sides warmly:

"Huh! Brother Li, I haven't seen you for many days, you are becoming more and more beautiful, do you see that Dr. Ben's clothes fit! ”

"Huh! Brother Zhang, I haven't seen you for a long time, you are getting more and more radiant, look at Dr. Ben's clothes! ”

"Hey! Brother Zhou? I'm here, you're going in the wrong direction, why are you going faster and faster..."

"Huh? Isn't this Wu Shipeng? Now that I see Dr. Ben, why don't you come to see him soon~"

···

"Who is that man who was escorted by the army?"

"I know, he is Cai Yong, a fugitive businessman who came to Cai Lai."

"A fugitive merchant? Are you sure that this arrogant, domineering, and rampant man in the city is a fugitive merchant? ”

"Of course I'm sure, this guy was harassed by Wu Shipeng the day before yesterday, and he begged me in a low voice yesterday to help him dredge, of course I know him."

"The day before yesterday, he was still troubled, and yesterday he was begging people everywhere, so how could he be developed today, shouting and drinking at Wu Shi Peng, and Wu Shi Peng still led him with a black face."

"He just donated 20,000 stone of grain to Taifu, donated a five doctors, and was summoned by the king, and now he has become the five doctors of my Chu country, although Wu Shipeng has a position, but he does not have any title. Now Cai Yong wants Wu Shipeng to lead the horse for him, does Wu Shipeng dare to refuse?

Besides, Wu Shipeng led the horse to the five doctors, which is not an insult to him. ”

When I heard it, there was a lot of discussion:

"Alas! Is the country so dangerous? With only 20,000 stone of grain, the king sold the title of the five doctors. ”

"Alas! The country is about to die, there will be demons, such a shameless villain, because of the donation of food, and won the five masters, it is really shameful for me. ”

"Alas, it's good to be rich~~ It's a pity that I don't, otherwise I'd be a big doctor now."

"I heard that if you donate 1,000 koku of food, you can become a national doctor..."

"How to donate, where to donate, do I need to prove anything?"

"Isn't it true that the people of Chu can donate? I would like to donate 40,000 stone of food! ”

"Shhh It's a gift to the five doctors. ”

"Hahaha... It's easy to say... Hahaha, wait, Your Excellency hasn't said if you can donate it yet! ”

"Another man who stenges of copper! It just stinks. ”

···

As Cai Yong continued to move forward, as Cai Yong continued to invite left and right, as more and more people gathered nearby, the matter of donating grain and receiving knighthood also spread rapidly, and soon it was known all over the city.

And Cai Yong, a big crab with flamboyant branches, also successfully completed the trust entrusted to him by the King of Chu, and directly ignited the sensational Yingdu, which aroused the great enthusiasm of the people of Yingdu for donating money.

The next morning, Cai Yong took his servants and transported five hundred gold and ten thousand stone grain to the streets of Yingdu in a carriage, and then openly placed five hundred gold and gold on the street, shouting: "Don't miss it, this doctor has recruited warriors." ”

After a while, the surrounding people were all attracted by Cai Yong's shouting and the bright gold.

Waiting for the people to be almost surrounded, Cai Yongcai shouted loudly: "Fathers and brothers, now my Chu State is facing the attack of the Five Kingdoms, in Cai Yongben is the Cai people's clan, because of the Five Kingdoms, he lost his homeland and could only fall to Yingdu, and the Five Kingdoms are for the Xia, even if they are exhausted, it is difficult to eliminate the hatred in the heart.

The king heard about what was happening in the next place, and knew that he was going to fight to the death with the five countries in the next heart, so he gave him a knight with the five doctors, and gave him a place in the next 1,000 private troops, so that he could go down to the front line to kill the enemy and serve the country.

Therefore, full of loyalty and patriotism, he went bankrupt and scraped together 500 gold and 10,000 stone of grain, and recruited warriors here.

As long as you are at least sixteen years old, physically strong, and willing to join the warriors under the command of this doctor, once you enlist in the army, you can get a reward of ten stones of corn, and this is not the end, all the warriors under the command of this doctor, as long as they kill one enemy on the battlefield, then the doctor will be rewarded with a gold, which is one gold, which is double the bounty of the Qi national skilled fighters. ”

"One gold?" The people around them suddenly let out an exclamation.

The price of gold in the world is generally linked to grain, and if grain is expensive, gold is cheap, and grain is cheap, but no matter how much the price of gold falls, it will roughly fluctuate around 2,000 to 3,000 yuan.

One gold can buy about 100 stone of grain in previous years, which is basically enough to feed a family of five for a year.

Killing one person can feed oneself for a year, and one can take care of the whole family's food for a year.

This...

At this moment, there are already many people in the crowd of onlookers!

At noon that day, Qu Yuan and Chen Zhen entered the Chu Palace together.

At this moment, in the side hall, Xiong Huai has been sitting on the throne and waiting for a long time, when Qu Yuan and the two came to the palace, Xiong Huai couldn't wait to ask: "Two virtuous people, how is the situation now?" ”

The two glanced at each other when they heard this, and then Qu Yuan spoke: "Great King, the minister has been staying in Taifu before, and up to now, there have been seven people who have donated the position of five doctors, among these seven people, except for a big businessman of Yan State, the remaining six people are all wealthy businessmen of my Chu State. ”

"Seven people? And there are also big businessmen in Yan Guo? Xiong Huai was slightly stunned.

He asked Qu Yuan to find ten big businessmen in advance to cooperate with his own policy, and only six of them agreed, according to the plan, only Cai Yong donated first yesterday, and then there will be two people today, and there will be three more tomorrow, so as to create a situation where the donation situation is extremely hot.

But I didn't expect that the edict was issued only yesterday afternoon, and by noon today, six Chu people had donated 20,000 stone of grain. This number has doubled since he expected, and one of the people he has arranged will donate in the afternoon.

This...

Xiong Huai was silent for a moment, and sighed: "I don't want to, there are so many wealthy businessmen in my Chu country." ”
