Martial Sage

Chapter 1334: The Secret

"My concubine deliberately checked the accounts of the Yuezhou Bank last night. The number is amazing. The bank has grown up from a baby in a swaddle."

"Your Majesty, it is time for you to find a suitable place for it. The concubine can no longer control the bank. Now someone has proposed to use cheap paper instead of gold, silver, and copper as coins. The concubine does not understand it, just in case it is wrong. It will lead to catastrophic disaster." She told the truth.

"Then what did Tang Hao say?" Li Zhi couldn't help sitting up after hearing what the mother said.

"The concubine once asked Tang Hao on the boat. He was pale at the time and said something that he didn't understand. Finally, with red eyes, he said to the concubine that someone had mentioned that the person who printed paper money had made a decisive decision."

Li Zhi closed his eyes and pondered for a while, and said slowly: "Compared to others, I trust his judgment. The money house was originally derived from him, the prince and Li Dangu. If there is a person in the world who knows the pros and cons of money houses best, It should be him. After returning to Chang'an, we need to talk to him about the bank affairs."

The couple were relatively speechless, and sighed in unison, making the pavilion more quiet.

Li Zhi and Niangniang were still wandering the streets and alleys of Yuezhou Mansion. Sometimes they also appear in farmland in the suburbs, and they no longer hide their own identity.

A small temple appeared in the place where Tang Hao was throwing rice seedlings indiscriminately.

The inscription is still on it, and the ironic tone has not changed, except that a sentence was added at the end: The acreage here at the end of the year is 10% productive.

"Mischief can also cause the people to automatically make him a statue. I really have nothing to say." Li Zhi clapped his hand on the statue's head with great emotion. Whether this guy is miraculously lucky or there is a god in the world. bless?

Li Zhi, who continued on his journey, looked at the lush mountains around him, and asked Han Cheng: “This place is surrounded by mountains on three sides, one side is near the water, swamps are densely covered with mosquitoes, why do you rarely see wild animals? Flood dragons are rampant and tigers and leopards are in groups on the mountain. Now we monarchs and ministers have been walking here for a day. Why is it so hard to see small beasts like foxes?"

Han Cheng bowed and replied, "In response to your Majesty's words, the Weichen is only sighing that there are too few dragons and the traces of tigers and leopards are hard to find."

"Oh, why is this? Both dragons and tigers and leopards are pests, why did Qing sigh?" Li Zhi knew that there must be a reason for this, and did not easily draw conclusions.

The encounter a few days ago made him feel bad. There are many places in Yuezhou that are different from other states. One of them is that the gate of Yuezhou is never closed. As long as it is late in the night, there will be an endless stream of cars and horses. Enter Yuezhou City. After I asked, I realized that Yuezhou City does not allow merchants to buy goods during the day. They can only transport the goods into Yuezhou in the second half of the night when there are no people in the market. The reason is that the governor thinks that pigs and sheep crossing the market are unsightly.

"Your Majesty, although the dragons and tigers and leopards are all pests, they are all treasures. After the dragon skin is tanned, it becomes the best leather for boots. This year is not bad. A good soft leather craftsman can take a dragon The skin is peeled into four layers, and the peeled crocodile skin is as soft as silk and as tough as hemp. It is the best choice for making various bags."

Then, Han Cheng pointed to a female officer and said, "Look at the bags on those female officers. They are produced in the Tang family store. They are too expensive. With a small salary, you can’t buy a few of these bags in a year. Doctors believe that dragon meat can nourish qi, nourish blood, relieve asthma and relieve coughs, so large families have dried dragon meat. As for tigers and leopards, the same is true. The furs made by master craftsmen from Chang'an are now sold. Given the big food, Yuezhou City has 20% of the industry, relying on these dragons and tigers and leopards to support. Nowadays, there are no dragons around Yuezhou City, and tigers and leopards can only be seen in the deep mountains. That's why. The prices of bags and furs made in Yuezhou are much higher."

Hearing this, Li Zhi called an accompanying female officer and asked her to bring her own backpack. Li Zhi tore it a few times and opened it again.

The female officer's face turned crimson immediately, and there were some women's personal belongings inside. Li Zhi didn't care, turned over and fell on the altar table in front of the statue of Tang Hao, looking at the copper crocodile logo on the backpack, and carefully studied.

"There are many such bags and concubines. As long as the Tang family has new products, they will send some to the palace, but the price is not known. How expensive can a bag be? Well, Huannu, how much do you spend on this bag? "Niang Niang asked suspiciously.

The female official said: "Returning to Niang Niang, this is an example of a slave and maid's saving for two years. I bought it at the old Tang family store yesterday and used twelve silver coins."

The female officer hung her head down, afraid to look at the Niang Niang. Although Niang Niang liked to decorate, such an expensive item was beyond expectation.

"Twelve silver coins?" Empress exclaimed, and slapped the female officer on the head with a slap.

"The Tang family's asking prices have always been black-hearted, so I bought this thing with 50 dan of grain."

Seeing Niang Niang angry, Huan Nu hurriedly knelt down and pleaded. The other female officials put their own bags in front of Niang Niang and also knelt down and pleaded. There was actually one person.

Hancheng cupped hands interceded for these female officials, "The mother calmed down her anger, there are a wife, a concubine and three daughters in Weichen's house. There are ten such bags. To them, the bags are the biggest thing they miss besides jewelry. They came to Yuezhou from Chang'an with Niang Niang. Weichen would be surprised if he didn't buy some bags."

"You said it's normal for rich people to buy this thing?" Empress looked at Han Cheng incredulously. After all, this thing is too expensive for ordinary people to buy.

"So, some old friends of Weichen are in Chengzhou, Chuzhou, and they will send letters asking the old man to buy some new bags for their wife. Ashamed, Weichen's salary is on the side." Qian Sheng is also on the side. Helping cavity.
