"The Son of Heaven guards the country, and the king dies!"
Fiji muttered the words, the expression on his face becoming more and more solemn. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
After being silent for a long time, Fiji bowed deeply to Xiao Ming, "Your Highness is righteous, and you will be a generation of Ming monarchs in the future, which is the blessing of my Great Yu Country and the blessing of the people." ”
Xiao Ming smiled and didn't explain, in his opinion, Dingdu Youzhou is very close to the sea, and secondly, only Dingdu Youzhou can completely solve the border troubles in the north.
Rejecting Fiji's offer, Xiao Ming followed Ye Qingyun to the Wei Palace.
Unlike the minimalist style of his palace, the Wei palace is extremely luxurious, with the main hall alone being as grand as the Chengqing Hall of the Imperial City, and behind the main hall is a winding stone path, at the end of which is a river that crosses the palace, and a stone bridge lies across the river.
On the other side of the river is another complex of buildings, which is the dormitory of the king and princesses of Wei.
"When I was in Chang'an, I heard that the Wei Wangfu was extremely luxurious, and now it seems that it is true." Fiji said.
Ye Qingyun said: "This King Wei is not the most luxurious place in Jinling City, His Royal Highness and Fei Ge Lao will understand what luxury is when they look at the treasury of Jinling City. ”
Xiao Ming and Fiji glanced at each other, this was the focus of their visit to Jinling City this time, Xiao Ming heard the words and said: "Then what are you waiting for, don't lead the way." ”
"Yes, Your Highness." Ye Qingyun said with a smile.
Then the two of them came out of the Wei Palace, and went all the way west, and Ye Qingyun stopped on the shore of Xuanwu Lake in Jinling City, pointed to the people's square on the side of the river and said, "Your Highness, this is where the treasury of Jinling City is located." ”
Xiao Ming looked in the direction that Ye Qingyun was pointing, and there were many pavilions in the private square not far away, like a palace complex.
"This is the treasury of Jinling City?" Xiao Ming asked.
Ye Qingyun said: "Yes, Your Highness, the tax income of Wei Di over the years is in this treasury. ”
Fiji was also a little stunned, the buildings in this folk square were one after another, as if they were a long dragon.
With some expectations in his heart, Xiao Ming walked towards the Minfang, walked for twenty minutes, and everyone arrived at the treasury of Jinling City.
When he got closer, Xiao Ming realized the enormity of this treasury, and the wide halls in front of him, each hall was connected to each other, and the soldiers of the Dengzhou Army were guarding in front of these halls at this time.
"Your Highness, please see, the treasury of this palace has a reserve of silver taels, and the last general has already sent someone to count it, a total of eight million taels of silver." Ye Qingyun said.
The glasses of Fiji and the officials widened, and Fiji said, "The King of Wei is indeed extremely rich. ”
At this time, Xiao Ming's heart beat a little angrily, what is lacking in Qingzhou Bank now is silver, if there is enough silver, he can issue banknotes based on silver.
Now that there is so much silver stored in the treasury of the King of Wei, it is simply a timely rain for him.
Under the guidance of Ye Qingyun, he entered the treasury with Fiji, and suddenly a silver light made his eyes stingle slightly, and he saw that there were neat silver ingots stacked in the treasury, each of which was in the shape of a long strip.
He picked up a silver ingot and weighed it, and a silver ingot cost at least a pound.
Eight million taels of silver is also eight hundred tons, and it is estimated that the savings of King Wei in the past ten years are here.
"Your Highness, we have made a fortune." Fiji couldn't help but dance excitedly at this time.
Ye Qingyun smiled and continued: "What is stored in this hall is silver, and what is stored next door is copper and copper coins, compared to silver, this copper is more. ”
"Let's go, let's see." Xiao Ming's heart was full of joy, this time he really got rich overnight, and this time he made a lot of money in Wei Di's business.
Then the group went to the bronze hall, where 1,200 tons of copper were stored, and then they went to the main hall where cloth, raw silk, tea, and porcelain were stored.
At the end of the trip, they went to the granary in Jinling City, but now the specific amount of grain in the granary Ye Qingyun did not know, because the quantity was too much to weigh, and could only be based on the account books of the granary, a total of five million stones.
After understanding the treasury of Jinling City, Xiao Ming's whole person seemed to be relaxed, and he said: "Now that the food problem has finally been solved, with the grain collected from Weidi, the army of the feudal country is not worried about running out of military food." ”
"Exactly." Fiji smiled, "With the support of the granary of Weidi, His Highness is like a tiger." ”
"Hahaha......" everyone laughed at the same time.
Coming out of the Jinling Mansion, Xiao Ming said to Ye Qingyun: "By the way, where is King Wei?" ”
"Back to Your Highness, now the King of Wei is being imprisoned in the prison of Jinling City, and at the same time, the relatives of the King of Wei are also detained."
Xiao Ming nodded, and he said, "Take this king to see him." ”
"Yes, Your Highness."
Ye Qingyun took Xiao Ming to the Jinling City prison.
After walking for another twenty minutes, Xiao Ming and the others arrived at the Jinling City prison, and at this time, Ye Qingyun sent someone to the cell to bring King Wei out.
After a while, the dirty King Wei walked out of the prison.
Seeing the pale hair and a dejected look of King Wei, Xiao Ming sighed slightly, compared with the previous King of Wei, the current King of Wei is just a bad old man.
At this time, King Wei squinted, as if he was very uncomfortable with the light outside, and when he got used to the light outside, he saw Xiao Ming standing in front of him clearly.
"Xiao Ming, you're still here." King Wei smiled and said, "How is it?" My Jinling City is very prosperous. ”
"Jinling City is indeed very prosperous."
Xiao Ming said lightly, he saw a trace of hysterical madness in King Wei's eyes.
"Hahaha, this king has such a rich Jinling City but it was defeated in your hands, why! Why the hell is that?" King Wei's eyes stared straight at Xiao Ming.
Ye Qingyun was standing closer to Xiao Ming at this time, for fear that King Wei would rise out and hurt people.
"For destiny does not belong to you." Xiao Ming gave King Wei a desperate answer.
"Destiny, destiny." The madness in King Wei's eyes gradually turned into sadness, "Yes, the destiny is not in me, the destiny is not in me, it's not my fault, it's the destiny of heaven!" ”
Fiji sighed: "Your Highness, King Wei is afraid that he is crazy." ”
"No, he's not crazy, he's just too unwilling to fail." Xiao Ming said: "Elder Fei Ge thinks how to deal with King Wei. ”
"The King of Wei conspired against him, and his crimes were extremely heinous, and only Bai Aya and poisonous wine could be compared with it." Fiji spoke firmly.
Xiao Ming's eyes narrowed, the feudal dynasty was so cruel, cutting the grass and eradicating the roots was something every emperor would do.
Now Xiao Ming has gradually adapted to this world, this civilization has just sprouted, but barbarism is still in power, and if you want to survive in this world, you must learn to be ruthless.
He nodded, "Give him a cup of poison bar, the Wei State is dead, and there is no longer a need for a Wei king." ”
