Chapter 909: The Return of the Super Coin
"Congratulations on the triumph of the lord!"
Xiangping, on the large square where Shang Ji set out on the expedition, the civil and military forces left behind in Pingzhou led by Liu Yi and Deng Yan gathered together to welcome Shang Ji's triumph.
Because they got the news in advance, Liu Yi and the others had enough time to arrange the arrangement, and they not only came to greet a large number of civil ministers and military generals, but also many Xiangping and the surrounding people came spontaneously.
Under the gaze of everyone, a milky white light flashed, and Shang Ji and 720,000 soldiers appeared out of thin air, making the atmosphere suddenly reach a climax.
Countless people cheered and shouted all kinds of transgressive slogans, and the people's hearts swelled unprecedentedly.
Looking at the cheering crowd, Shang Ji also felt a little throbbing in his heart. After five full years of foreign expeditions, he suddenly arrived at the familiar Xiangping, and Shang Ji couldn't help but give birth to a little wanderer's homecoming.
Looking at the cheering crowd, Shang Ji was full of pride in his chest, and drove the dragon to fly into the air and hover.
Seeing this, everyone fell silent, and after a few breaths, the audience was silent, and countless pairs of eyes stared at Shang Ji in mid-air without blinking.
"Dear fathers and colleagues, thank you for taking time out of your busy schedules to greet Ji and Ji is afraid. Here, Ji reported the results of the battle to the fathers and elders. ”
After a pause, Shang Ji took a deep breath and continued: "This expedition to a foreign land, there are two out of ten giant cities, more than 1,000 large, medium and small cities, tens of millions of enemies killed, more than 10 unrighteous countries destroyed, thousands of barbarian people are educated, and I am a great Han Tianwei. Ji is worthy of heaven and earth, worthy of the high hopes of all fathers and elders! ”
"Hooray!"
"Hooray!"
"Hooray!"
……………………
Shang Ji's words suddenly brought the atmosphere to a new peak again, and countless people shouted in unison, as if the mountains were trembling.
Everyone cheered for half an hour before Shang Ji waved his hand and signaled everyone to be quiet.
"Ji Neng has this feat, and it is inseparable from the tens of millions of loyal and brave soldiers in Pingzhou, inseparable from the civil affairs officials who have been dreaming and fighting hard at night, and even more inseparable from the thousands of Pingzhou fathers and elders. In order to repay the kindness of his father, Ji hereby announces that from now on, all taxes except commercial tax in Pingzhou will be exempted for the next year; All soldiers and officials in Pingzhou will be issued an additional year's salary; Over the years, the soldiers who have been disabled or killed in battle in Pingzhou will be given double the pension for the soldiers or their relatives;
All the people of Pingzhou, who are over 60 years old, will be given three stones of fine grain, fifty catties of meat, three horses of cloth, and one sheep; and those who are seventy years old shall be given an additional ox cart; Eighty times more, a carriage (the daily maintenance of carriages and ox carts is the responsibility of the government); If there is a person under the age of eight who has a drooping hair, he will be given a stone of fine grain, twenty pounds of meat, a piece of cloth, and a dog.
However, if there is a wedding or funeral, it will be reported to the local government, and the government will give money and gifts as appropriate. From now on, a newborn will be born, and a ewe, a foal, three stones of fine grain, a number of medicinal materials such as dispelling plague and disease, and a gold for nursing expenses; Those whose families are poor and unable to support them report to the government, and the government will provide rice, flour, and diesel fuel as appropriate to help feed the baby. If the parents abandon the infant without reason, once discovered, the rod will be 30 and 3,000 li.
Nursery halls and old age halls have been set up in various localities to nurse orphans who have lost their parents and the elderly who are lonely and helpless.
All people between the ages of five and those under the age of fifteen, regardless of gender, can enter the school for free to learn literacy and martial arts. The government provides a social teacher, and the social school provides meals for free for those who enroll. Set up a social scholarship to reward outstanding students!
All students studying in academies at all levels in Pingzhou will be given a stone of fine grain, ten catties of meat, a set of books, and a number of pen, ink, paper, and inkstones. Those with excellent grades will be given a number of spiritual rice. Poor students can apply for living allowance and exemption from shackles.
All Pingzhou aliens, after being verified to have no illegal or criminal records, each person can go to the local government to receive a subsidy, and if the cumulative Pingzhou meritorious service exceeds 100, they can be rewarded with an additional piece of excellent or iron-grade equipment according to the amount of meritorious value.
……………………”
Shang Ji has enough Zhenyuan, and his voice spreads very widely, and half of Xiangping City can hear his full voice, and he has said a lot of content, and he has been talking for five minutes now, but it seems that the posture is not over yet.
The people below were excited at first, then slowly turned into disbelief, and finally even had a look of doubt in their eyes. If it weren't for the fact that the current situation is a little inappropriate, it is estimated that some people would already wonder if Shang Ji is crazy!
It's really that the things he announced are too unbelievable!
Even Deng Yan looked dumbfounded, if it weren't for Xi Zhicai and Xun Yu next to him, he would have come out to stop Shang Ji from "talking nonsense" just now.
"Deng Gong don't be impatient, don't be impatient! The lord naturally has a reason for doing this! ”
Xun Yu smiled and comforted Deng Yan, who was full of anxiety.
"How can you calm down? If it goes on like this, it won't take half a year, and Pingzhou's finances will be bankrupt! We're all going to have to sleep on the streets! ”
Deng Yan said with some emotion.
As far as the policy just read out by Shang Ji, let's not mention a series of things in the end, just exempting Pingzhou from paying taxes for one year, paying double the amount of money to officials and soldiers, and doubling the pension of all martyrs, these three points will have to be filled in at least 500 million gold.
As for the social studies, supporting the elderly and children, encouraging education, encouraging childbirth, etc., which are all bottomless pits, Deng Yan feels dizzy when he thinks about the funds that may need to be spent.
But soon Deng Yan reacted, and saw that Xi Zhicai, Xun Yu and others were happily watching Shang Ji's performance, he immediately frowned, and hurriedly asked: "Honestly, is this national war very fruitful?" ”
The welfare policy released by Shang Ji is well-organized, obviously not played by him on the spot, and it is very likely that it was drafted in advance by several people in front of him.
If they dare to do this, they must have considered it all. The only explanation is that the harvest of the mainland in this national war is extremely rich, rich enough to make Shang Ji so "nonsense".
Xun Yu smiled, stroked his beard and said, "Deng Gong is not strange, the specific harvest of the continent in this national war is not clear. It is estimated that in the entire Pingzhou army, only the lord is clear about the specific benefits. However, Yu can assure Deng Gong that the harvest will definitely be more abundant than you expected. The implementation of the welfare policy mentioned by the lord is only the tip of the iceberg! ”
Deng Yan was taken aback when he heard this, but he was quickly relieved. He doesn't have a problem with Shangji's welfare policies, and if he can, he would like to issue more measures to benefit the people.
However, Deng Yan focuses on the overall situation, and does everything according to his ability. Since we know that the business has a deep foundation and abundant funds, there will be no danger of financial collapse, so we naturally no longer obstruct it.
In fact, if it weren't for the sudden inflow of gold coins that caused turmoil in the monetary system, the merchant could have invested more than that.
Beacon is a very realistic game, and every gold, silver, and copper coin will not be created out of thin air. Shang Ji suddenly brought back a large amount of gold coins from overseas, and if all of them were put on the market at once, it would definitely lead to financial turmoil throughout the Han Dynasty.
This is what merchants do not want to see, so in order to maximize their own benefits and ensure financial stability, merchants can only slowly put a large amount of gold coins into the market little by little.
As for how much money Shang Ji has collected in the National War Continent, I'm afraid Shang Ji himself doesn't know.
In the last two years of the war, Yan Huang targeted cities, using various materials, and extorting a large number of cities from other countries and regions through various means such as both soft and hard.
Shang Ji, on the other hand, aimed at gold coins, and the gold coins brought to the Death Continent by countless countries and regions eventually entered Shang Ji's pocket. If it weren't for this, the Pingzhou army, which had more supplies than Yanhuang, would not have only occupied twelve giant cities in the end.
The dazzling True Gold Mountain in the Space Ring clearly told him that he didn't have to think about financial issues until the whole country was unified.
For the current merchants, what they really need to worry about is how to spend money! No matter how much gold and silver can't be converted into actual productivity, it's just a bunch of useless dead things, and now Shang Ji can say very calmly: I'm not interested in money!
