Chapter 283: A Different Triumph
When I left Chang'an, it was still the end of summer, and when I returned to Chang'an, it was already the beginning of summer. Li Chengqian came back from a quick swim all the way, and the harvest was very rich. The magistrates were crazy to stuff souvenirs on the boat of His Royal Highness the Prince. Originally, his harvest could have been even richer, and when the beautiful woman was also sent to the boat as a souvenir, Yun Hao and Li Daoyan resolutely put an end to this corrupt behavior. If this matter is known by the eldest grandson, the consequences will be terrible!
After passing Tongguan, Liu Da hurriedly came to the team, and it was already a common thing for the head of the family to go on the expedition. It is also common to return to the dynasty after victory, and it is also common not to go to Chang'an to participate in any major battles. The Yun family is already outstanding enough, and the ordinary prince's family is not as good as the Duke of Chu's mansion.
It's not a good thing to make the rafters for the head, and now the Yun family wants to be dormant. It's okay to go to Chang'an to enjoy that scenery, it's serious to live behind closed doors. The matter of enjoying the glory is still given to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and King Jiaodong. After all, they don't have much chance to boast of martial arts!
As soon as they entered Tongguan, the soldiers began to disperse. Every time he arrived in a prefecture or county, there would be government soldiers who would break away from Yun Hao's ranks. They are all soldiers of the Guanzhong government, and the captain of Zhichong will wait on the side of the road early.
In the past, every time he followed the team of the Duke of Chu to fight, there would be many rewards. This time, however, it seemed to be a little different, and the soldiers brought back pieces of paper.
Zeng Daniu walked to Liu Da's tent and handed over the pieces of paper in his hand. Then he recited a poem that he did not rely on, and soon the account office checked it out. Facing the record keeper of the money, he joined the army and said, "Twenty money! ”
A huge sack of burlap was thrown down from the carriage by a strong soldier, and Zeng Da Niu smiled from ear to ear when he saw the muscular appearance. In fact, as long as the soldier came to collect the money, he would open his mouth and smile like a fool.
"The development of the two lakes requires a large amount of money, and as long as the nobles store the money in the money village in Chang'an, they can take out the corresponding money in the two lakes. After two years, they made money in Lianghu and wanted to go to Chang'an, but they only needed to send the money to Qianzhuang. Then you can withdraw money at the money bank in Chang'an! Of course, there are some costs associated with this. This kind of business is called foreign exchange. Yun Hao's carriage stopped not far away, and Li Chengqian, Li Daoyan and Yun Hao were sitting in the car.
"That's why you left this capture in Jiangnan?" Li Daoyan's eyes widened, most of the money used in these years was copper coins. The money has always been seven or eight catties, and Zeng Da Niu's twenty consistent rewards are a hundred or dozens of catties.
The nobles and the imperial court wanted to invest in the two lakes, and the money they needed really needed to carry a lot of money. Not to mention anything else, just transporting this money to Jiangnan will take a lot of effort. I don't know how Yun Hao's head grows, and he actually came up with such an idea.
By extension, since it works in the two lakes. That would work in other places, and even the government's taxes would not have to be painstakingly deported to Chang'an. Only through the money bank, the imperial court can withdraw cash in Chang'an. And when the imperial court needs to allocate funds to the local government, it can also use the same method.
This not only facilitates the people and the court, but also makes a lot of money in it.
"Remittance is just one of the businesses of the bank, and the bank can also take out a mortgage. Don't look at me like that, I'm not talking about a mortgage loan shark from Buddhism or Taoism. Rather, it is an affordable loan, in order to attract people to save money. We also need to pay interest to the people, and of course, the interest rate on loans is higher than the interest rate on savings. The money bank earns a little interest difference! ”
"This kind of business can indeed only be controlled by the imperial court." Hearing Yun Hao's description, Li Chengqian couldn't help but grow his mouth.
The Guanzhong people stored their money in a variety of ways, and large families exchanged copper coins for silver. In order to fear losing it, small pieces of silver were also re-melted and cast into a huge silver ball. The snitch doesn't have the strength of three or five hundred pounds, so he doesn't even think about taking it away.
The small door and small household are simply put in the pigsty, as long as the pig hums, there will immediately be a big man with a dung fork out to inspect. It is conceivable that when you spend money, the taste of that money ......! The east and west cities of Chang'an City are filled with a strong smell of copper.
Now as long as you keep your money in the bank, you will get interest every month. It's a pie-in-the-sky thing, or pure beef filling. In addition, with the royal guarantee, no matter whether it is a large family or a well-off family, it is not crazy to save money in it?
It is conceivable what kind of behemoth the money bank will become after a few years of development.
Li Daoyan narrowed his eyes, but his father was still sharp and unique. insisted on intervening in this business, and now he has a 10% stake at home. According to Yun Hao's description, this share can almost make the family prosperous for a long time.
The novel way is very interesting, and the captains of Zhichong watched the soldiers "snort" and "smack" to carry money home, and their eyes were red. The next time you hear that the Duke of Chu is going on an expedition, you will follow everything you say. Even if you die in battle, it's worth it, and if you die in battle, you will get a hundred dollars. This body of meat was dismantled and sold in the western market, and it could not be sold at this price.
When the team entered the territory of Lintong, the situation changed. Li Daoyan and Li Chengqian were surprised to find that there were still people in front of Liu Da's tent. But no one took the money from the carriage, but exchanged the pieces of paper in his hand for a book with a big red cover. Although they didn't know the numbers on it, they all had a smile on their faces. Could it be that this is the beginning of saving money?
"Small-scale access business has long existed in Lintong. They all have savings at home, so they know how to maximize their profits. Yun Hao said to Li Chengqian and Li Daoyan with a smile.
"Your farmer is also smarter than other people's. Could it be that he is really close to Zhu Zhechi? Li Daoyan looked at this surprised scene and asked with some curiosity.
"You've been to the Yun family a lot of times, and I haven't seen you red. Without further ado, Lao Tzu is going home. Your Majesty, I will trouble you to go and greet you. Yun Hao waved his hand helplessly and got out of the carriage. Stepping on the land I am familiar with, I feel tired like a tidal wave.
I don't know what's wrong.,No matter how tired you are outside.,It seems to be able to persevere.。 But when I got home, all the tiredness seemed to come out. Now Yun Hao doesn't want anything else, just misses the huge bathhouse at home. Soak in a hot bath comfortably, and then sleep in the company of your wife, this is the life of a person.
Li Chengqian and Li Daoyan glanced at each other, and they both saw helplessness in each other's eyes. What a great honor it was for the army to triumph, but Yun Hao could only avoid it. Everyone knows that the Yun family is going to hibern. The unsealed Yun family didn't want to become the object of royal suspicion, Yun Hao told the Great Heavenly Khan in another way that he wanted to go home and farm.
There are not many people who can deliberately keep a low profile after such a feat. Li Jing, a cautious person, also walked on Suzaku Street once, enjoying the cheers of the subjects of the Tang Dynasty.
"This person was given to my Li family by God!" Glancing at Yun Hao's back, Li Chengqian said leisurely.
Yun Hao didn't want to make war exploits, and Li Er naturally forgot about it. Now give the Yun family a knighthood, or a bigger reward. That's not a reward, it's a killing.
If you don't seal Lao Tzu, it doesn't mean that you don't reward Lao Niang. Zhao became Mrs. Korea, and she was a good one. Yun Sanbao, who was still wearing diapers, became the Guoyi captain of Datang. Although he is only a military attache from the seventh rank, many people are struggling to cut people for this official position. Naturally, there are many people who have fallen on the way to this position. Even if it is conferred, it can only be posthumously awarded.
The second young master of the Yun family doesn't have to work so hard, he is already a Tang officer at the age of wearing open crotch pants, and he still has the kind that Yu Lu takes.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince returned to the court victoriously, which is naturally to be greatly publicized. The officials of the Ministry of Rites were like frightened donkeys, and they were driven all over Chang'an.
The stars scattered all the way, and when I returned to Chang'an. Only 5,000 standing soldiers of Zuo Wuwei remained, and these 5,000 were standing soldiers. They need to return to the barracks in Chang'an, and they can't pack up and go home until their guards are stationed. Naturally, their rewards will be more generous. When they return home, they are also exempt from forced labor for three years. However, this time the battle was won, and it was possible to be exempted from five years of forced labor.
The army will naturally have a guard of honor when it returns, just after crossing the bridge, I saw that there were 100 people singing and dancing on the opposite side, some leading sheep, some carrying wine, and there were people who filled the basket with melons, fruits, pears, peaches and jujubes, these things can only be seen, they can't be eaten, they are all wax pinched, and all the dancers are long-sleeved Gong'e, a group of twenty-four people, a total of five groups, this kind of etiquette is only one grade lower than Li Er's triumph.
It was a Taichang in the palace who led the sheep, this guy stabbed the sheep to death with a knife, found a jade cup to catch the blood that flowed out, and then put his finger into the jade cup and dipped it in some sheep blood, and began to smear it on Li Chengqian's face, although it was only a faint two strokes, Li Chengqian still smelled the sheep's breath.
Li Daoyan is more unlucky, his current position is Zhongshu Ling. Therefore, he can only take the civil official bridge, and the grade is much worse than Li Chengqian. But this guy is also proud, and he also has a part in his military exploits this time. It would be great if you could replace the prince on your head with a prince.
Li Chengqian's side sang "Out of the Car", and the Wenguan Bridge sang "Folding Willows", and the clothes on the palace maid's body were much less than those on Li Chengqian's side, and the two white flowers were exposed, so that the prince Liuyu around Li Chengqian didn't bother to watch the singing and dancing on his side.
This time it is a general expedition, so after coming back, you must first go to the royal temple to fast, bathe for three days, and report your own achievements to the emperor before it is the emperor's turn to ask.
It was Li Shentong who was responsible for guiding Li Chengqian into the ancestral temple, and the old guy had a serious face, and he coughed lightly and shouted: "Has the army ever won the battle?" ”
"Ten thousand wins, ten thousand wins, ten thousand wins!" Li Chengqian's rooster-like voice echoed in the hall.
"That being the case, enter!"
