Pushing open the door and walking in, I was stunned in front of me, only to see ten large wooden boxes 1 meter square inside, open it to see, it is full of copper coins, yes, it is a variety of copper coins, not the dream of gold and silver, nor jewelry and antiques, all of them are copper coins connected with hemp rope, all kinds, some are well-made on the book Yongle Tongbao, some are rough and flawed, and even just make a hole without any words, different colors and weights. (I like this book, please collect it biquge.info) Zheng Heng's eyes were stunned, his expression was single, he didn't expect that the stone crab clan had a hobby of collecting copper coins, and turned around and asked, "Akagi, how many are there?" ”
Akagi Kaohsiung took a step forward and opened one wooden box after another, and said: "Your Highness, judging from the account books seized in the city, this Shixishan City relies on two ferries to set up checkpoints to collect tolls, and resells the mountain goods of Zheduo and Aga County to the traveling merchants to earn the difference, which really makes a lot of money, this is a place to hide money, there are nearly 1,000 pieces of Yongle Tongbao, and there are nearly 5,000 pieces of bad money in other colors, and some of them have not been counted, and the number should be more than six or seven thousand. ”
Where did Zheng Heng think that this kind of thing would happen, picked up a copper coin, the hemp rope had already been overwhelmed and brittle, piled up with wooden boxes, looking at the color and the same as the Yongle Tongbao recorded in the book, copper purple red, real book reading, small flat line bare back without text, diameter of 2.4 cm, weight of about 4 grams, money face text Yongle Tongbao four characters in regular script from top to bottom and left to right straight reading, text strokes are beautiful.
1 guan is about 3000 grams to 4000 grams, even 6000 guan weighs nearly 20 tons, Zhengheng was stunned and shouted in his heart: "There are nearly 20 tons of copper coins here, damn, if you want to collect it, you won't collect so much!" ”
Zheng Heng was a little puzzled and said: "Why do they collect so many copper coins, if they are exchanged for rice, they are more than 4 or 5,000 stones, and the miscellaneous rice is nearly 10,000 stones, relying on 10,000 stone rice grain is enough to recruit an elite of 2,000 people, and with 2,000 elites, they can laugh at the two counties of Ahe and Zheduo, and they can even fight with Matsuyama City without losing." ”
Akagi Kaohsiung was also puzzled at the beginning with the same doubts as Zhengheng, guarding the copper money can not be eaten and can not be used for war, recruiting generals or white rice is direct, and many mountain people do not recognize money, and later after listening to the prisoner's explanation, he understood the reason, and relayed: "Your Highness, it's not that they can't understand, it's just that the shape is pressing, so the main stone crab Shouyuan was sent to Yueshan Futian City to be imprisoned 13 years ago."
It is difficult for this stone crab mountain city to expand its troops, and there is no one to clean them up, and a hundred standing soldiers guard the rice and grain that they have collected, not only can they not be used up, but they are moldy and rotten, so they have the idea of selling grain.
Later, there were tolls and even monopoly on mountain goods to earn the difference, but it was impossible for the traveling merchants to barter and only bring copper coins to buy, and the people of Addo and Zhehe counties only recognized white rice and grains, not copper coins, so they had to continue to shelve more and more accumulations. ”
Zhengheng didn't expect this allusion, and it is no wonder that the Stone Crab clan has such a huge amount of copper coins, who let the Stone Crab Shouyuan be placed under house arrest in Yueshan Futian City for 13 years.
The Nizi family gave the right to dispose of the Stone Crab Township to the Xinjian Zhenjing, but this Xinjian Zhenjing was the culprit of the arrest of the Stone Crab Shouyuan, and the Stone Crab clan collectively resisted the guide zhì Xinjian Zhenjing and could not stretch out the dog's paws to reap the benefits.
Without the Stone Crab Shouyuan, the Dragons of Stone Crab Mountain City are not easy to expand without a leader, and they have all become a group of merchants, and they can't use them after earning copper coins, so they can only accumulate more and more and look good.
Zheng Heng said with a smile: "It's better to spend this copper coin as much as possible, if it's hidden in the warehouse and it's difficult to use it, it's not okay, or it's practical to exchange it for white rice and weapons, I don't want to stare at it like the people of the Stone Crab clan, and wait for Nobuhiro to return and see if there is a way out of Yueshan Tomita City." ”
Akagi Kaohsiung understands that what Zhengheng said is true, but it is really a bit difficult to implement, although it is said that Nobuhiro can really say that the Nizi family will marry the princess, and by the way, the road to Tsukiyama Tomita City can be purchased from Tsukiyama Tomita Castle, but there is also a roadblock of Shinmi Sadajing in the middle, and the mountain road is long and a small amount may be possible, 6, 7000 copper coins are not a decimal.
Zhengheng also understands the difficult way to spend money, and laments in his heart: "In this troubled world, this country can't even spend any money!" Then he said: "Akagi, keep the Yongle Tongbao for the time being, and extract a part of the other Guan money with a better style to give the soldiers a reward, all those who play in the battle of Ashigaru 500 Wen, the size of the battle is 800 ~ 1 Guan money, the junior samurai 2 Guan, the Ashigaru General 5 Guan, the Shi General 10 Guan, well, to the Yi Dynasty and the True Soldier Guard are also distributed according to this ratio." ”
Akagi was stunned and said: "Your Highness, if you give me 10 yuan, I don't need it, it's quite heavy to carry, so let's give it more later." ”
The weight of 10 bad coins is about 30 kilograms, and it is really difficult to carry 30 kilograms of copper coins for him. Zheng Heng said with a blank face: "Well, let's send 500 yuan per person first, and the rest will be issued after returning to the Nest Mountain City, and I want to explain that it will always be useful in the future." ”
If it was usual, he would rather give white rice than copper coins, but he didn't know how to transport more than 20 tons of copper coins back to Kitechao Mountain City, it was too bulky! It's better to hide it and spread it out, and be blessed and enjoy the same hardships?!
Akagi Takao just agreed, 500 money may still be able to be used, thinking about whether he can also go to Matsuyama Castle or Noriyama Tomita Castle like Nikaido Nobuhiro and Noyama Masato, and buy a war horse to come back, uh, it seems that 10 yuan is not enough.
He took out a pamphlet and replied: "Your Highness, there is a rice warehouse next door, which is a special place for white rice, with old rice that was not sold the year before and new rice produced last year, a total of about 1,500 stones, and I have also found 3 cave secrets in the mountains, which contain 120 fine swords, 200 standard spears, and 100 cowhide armor. ”
Zhengheng was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect that the small Stone Crab Mountain City actually had so many materials, needless to say, the population of Stone Crab Township was naturally not low, and the output was more than 2,000 stones, compared to the 2,500 stones added up to 2,500 stones in Xiaosakabe Township and the area outside Yuanchaoshan City before Zhengheng started the war, and he was secretly speechless, and said: "Stone Crab Mountain City is fully prepared, there are so many weapons hidden, a good sword needs more than 15 yuan a piece, and a good Yongle Tongbao is not something that bad money can reach, He couldn't even buy it with money, he was able to hide 120 for a long time, but in the end it cheapened us. ”
Akagi Takao was also overjoyed and said: "Yes, there are 120 fine swords, 200 standard spears, and 100 cowhide armor, cowhide armor is more rare than fine swords in China!" ”
In this world, as long as there are weapons and white rice in their hands, they will have strength, no wonder the two are excited.
Zhengheng suddenly thought of the order to order Kiyokawa Atsutaro to go and seal the mansion of the Stone Crab clan under the castle, and said: "Akagi, Atsutaro has gone to seal the mansion of the Stone Crab clan under the castle, you go and hand it over." ”
Akagi Takao was ordered to leave.
Zheng Heng grabbed a handful of Yongle Tongbao and walked towards the door, just walked out of the courtyard, Akagi went and returned.
