Section 27 Rich people should work hard to spend money
Li Chengqian took the jade plaque and looked over it over and over. Without any clues, he gave the jade plaque to Li Tai. It was full of dots and circles. No matter how you looked at it, it looked like a child's graffiti. No trace of it could be found.
law.
"Yezi, I'd better give this jade token to you. We can't figure it out. You have two sides. Maybe we can discover some shocking secret from it."
After listening to Li Chengqian's words, Yun Ye laughed, took the jade pendant, threw it in his hand and said, "What secret? Bai Yujing? I should be the most knowledgeable person in the world about unknown places. I want to go there."
Bai Yujing, there is no chance of this. If it is a treasure map, you and I can't get it with all the money in this world. Who has the time to look for them? Even if there is a million taels of gold here, so what? So much gold enters the world
Don, it will only bring disaster. The market will naturally adjust supply and demand. No matter how much gold enters the market, in the end, the increased total amount of gold will buy the same things as before the increase. If we are not the rulers of the country, what else can we do?
To make profits from it, now, the country is ours, who are you going to cheat?
Chengqian, before you prepare to issue new money, we hate those who bury large amounts of copper coins in the soil at will, because we need copper coins for market circulation. It is not necessary now. Datang will no longer have any money shortages in the future.
The question is, when necessary, the bank's draft is also money. Gold and silver are just the capital for issuing coins. You can issue as many drafts as you have gold and silver. This is a principle that must be followed. If there is less money, it will be inconvenient for the people.
, you will return to the habit of bartering. It is not good to have too much money. The original grain sold for six cents will rise to eight or ten cents.
So, Cheng Qian, Qing Que, it is fun to take your free time as a hobby to find the secrets, but it is foolish to focus your main energy on it. "
These words completely lost the interest of the two Li brothers who were inexplicably excited just now. To them, the jade plaque is just a useless thing, maybe a disaster, and no one is interested in taking another look at it.
"Give this to your empress. The three of us must have a suitable excuse for running around in the palace. We can't talk about the poison. We finally put the woman in place, because it would be too bad to kill her again with the poison."
The jade pendant was thrown to Li Chengqian again. Yun Ye saw an ancient bark mask hanging on the edge of the dressing table. The painting was rough, but the face was ferocious, with two white teeth exposed. It looked like a mask from a Nuo opera, hung by Tian Mo Ji
Here. It must be a beloved thing. Yun Ye took off the mask and blew off the dust. The three of them lazily walked out of the yard, chatting and laughing, preparing to return to the East Palace. Li Chengqian had fresh sea cucumbers sent from Dengzhou at home, and they were ready to go back to the East Palace.
Make a big pot and drink some wine for three people.
If the palace is a huge spider web, the eldest grandson is undoubtedly the huge spider in the middle of the web. Intentionally or unintentionally, he appears on the way back to the East Palace, followed by many minions. Looking at the eunuch who whispered the report, you can tell that this guy is a
A talkative paparazzi.
Li Tai was the most favored person in front of his mother. When he saw someone betraying him, he had a lot of control there. Without saying a word, he went up and kicked the eunuch several times, then turned his nose to the sky to show that he was very angry.
Acting like a spoiled child has always been the exclusive preserve of younger sons, and the eldest brother does not have such qualifications. Li Chengqian smiled and said to his mother: "Mother, my son, Qingque, and Xiaoye have nothing to do. They are walking around in the abandoned garden to relax.
I didn’t expect it to be really fruitful. Look, it’s this thing. You used to say that Xiaoye got all the good things. Now we also have good things.”
Under the puzzled gaze of the eldest grandson, Li Chengqian took out the jade plaque from his sleeve and handed it to his mother. The eldest grandson's brows suddenly wrinkled. She didn't like this thing, whether it was true or false. The talk of immortality was too vain.
, I have never heard of anyone succeeding. My husband has reached the pinnacle of power in the world. The next step is to become immortal. Many emperors have fallen into this matter. They failed to seek immortality but became a laughing stock. The wiser the emperor, the more likely he is to become immortal.
She believed in the existence of gods. Her husband often expressed the intention that life was short. She was very wary of this issue. If she wanted to be a wise king, she must not seek immortals first. As long as people ask for immortals, they would ignore everything around them.
Changsun's mind was racing with lightning. He casually looked through the jade plaque twice, then gave it to Yun Ye and said: "It's a nice ancient jade, but the carving is not that good. I reward you. I heard the three of you saying from a distance.
If you want to eat sea eggplant, if Yun Ye cooks, it’s not too much to add me, right?"
Yun Ye helplessly held the jade sign in his hand, and was about to speak when he saw Li Er coming from a distance, so he quickly hid the sign. It didn't matter if he had a grandson, Li Er would go crazy when he saw it, an expedition team might
It will be formed immediately. If you are the captain, it will be miserable.
"Qing Que, you should rein in your little temper. What's the point of arguing with a eunuch? It's his duty to report to your mother. Don't do this next time. Yun Ye, show me what the queen gave you. Why?
, I can’t even take a look at the things I found in the palace?”
Reluctantly, he gave the jade pendant to Li Er. He was playing with it in his hands curiously, turning it over and over, and even looking at the sun to see if there were any interlayers in the jade. A dignified emperor was holding up a jade pendant.
The sun looked very strange. Changsun supported Li Er, worried that he would become dizzy and fall down after a while.
"Aren't you going to eat sea eggplant? I'm going too." Li Er held the jade pendant in his hand and looked like he didn't intend to return it.
Secretly stuffing the wooden box to Li Chengqian and asking him to hide it, Yun Ye went to the kitchen to make sea cucumbers. Since Yun Ye made sea cucumbers last time, Li Chengqian couldn't forget about it after eating it. Yuan Dake, the governor of Dengzhou, wanted to help.
In order for the people of Dengzhou to sell seafood, they must cultivate a large number of people who like to eat seafood. When I heard that His Royal Highness the Prince had this hobby, I rushed to Chang'an in a small boat day and night. That's it. After arriving in Chang'an, there were many living sea cucumbers.
Yu Yi.
He's big and fat, and he's attractive to people just by looking at him. He's long since shed all the dirt and vomited out his internal organs. This thing doesn't require much effort. Braised sea cucumber with green onions is a great dish.
Yun Ye is most impatient to make a small plate or a small plate of vegetables. What he likes most is to make a big pot, surrounded by foodies, especially the Queen. The last time she was eating braised pork at home, Yun Ye was
Vividly in my mind.
This basin should be enough for five people, right? Yun Ye looked at the porcelain basin as big as a washbasin and muttered to himself, "If it is served with pearl rice, there is no reason why it is not enough."
When the food was on the table, Yun Ye put a small piece of green onion for the eunuch who was trying it. Seeing that the eunuch was about to attack the sea cucumber, Li Tai kicked the eunuch out regardless of the fact that his father had just finished teaching him a lesson.
I fished out several sea cucumbers from the basin and ate them all in one go. Then I fished out a bowl for my father and mother, and kept saying: "Father, my son likes the big pot made by Yezi the most."
The food is full of flavor and portion, it’s the best. Try it, it turns out that the food in the sea is so delicious.”
Li Er still looked at the jade pendant in his hand. He had specially washed it with water just now and put it in the basin with his own hands. He looked left and right and couldn't see anything. When he heard Li Tai's words, he put the jade pendant away.
He put it on the dining table, took a piece of sea cucumber and took a bite. He let out a surprise, and his hands became very fast.
"Your Majesty, I have always liked to eat meat. You both suffer from wind disease. Eating too much meat is not good, but eating more sea cucumbers is indeed beneficial. It even has the effect of delaying and treating wind disease. The fishermen on the seaside are suffering. This sea cucumber
They need to be fished out from the shallow sea one by one, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive. When I was in Dengzhou, in the cold days of early spring, the fishermen went into the sea naked and patrolled under the seabed. What they got in one day was only a dozen.
, it is even more difficult to transport it to Chang'an, if only one out of ten survives, it is considered lucky."
Li Er didn't seem to hear. The eldest grandson glanced at the basin with regret, put down his chopsticks and said, "Although this thing is good, it is not easy to get. It wastes people and money, so it's okay if you don't eat it." Li Er put the chopsticks back into the eldest grandson's hand and asked Yun Ye to eat.
Go on.
"The empress has a motherly heart when she pities the people. You still need to eat this sea cucumber, and you need to eat more of it. Others don't know it, but the origin of Chengqian's sea cucumber is clear to me. Yuan Da, the governor of Dengzhou, has always had great ambitions.
Dengzhou is located on the seaside, and the land is eroded by sea water. The salt-alkali is so severe that the fields produce very little. To control the salt-alkali, water needs to be flushed. The engineering is complicated, and the land needs to be washed again after two years of farming.
Fortunately, God is fair and did not give them good land, but gave them a rich ocean. Whale meat is not a rare thing in Chang'an now. Kelp and sea vegetables can be found in every restaurant in Chang'an in winter. Salted fish and sea vegetables are all available.
Rice has also become a daily food, all thanks to the ocean.
Cheng Qian bought sea cucumbers from the seaside and shipped them back. No matter how much waste there was, it was the Prince's Mansion that paid for it. The fishermen benefited from this, and the government had taxes to collect. As long as it was not robbed, the people and the government would benefit. Money is such a thing.
It needs to keep running and circulate from one person's hands to another before it can play its original role."
"You and the prince are good friends, so don't you worry about the officials impeaching you for your extravagance and lust?"
"It is the greatest waste to keep money in the bank for months without moving. Every time a few days pass, you have to take out the silver and copper coins to bask in the sun, and soak the silver in potion. Otherwise, the silver will change.
Black, copper coins will rust and become annoying. If you spend the money, you will always gain something. What is kept in the warehouse is called silver, not money."
"Hey, what do you mean, is it wrong to be frugal and frugal? Everyone should spend money carrying debt? For example, I should build gardens aggressively now? What's the point?"
"If it comes to a time when everyone is in debt and spending money, Wei Chen dares to say that you will not need to collect any agricultural taxes at that time. Maybe the people who farm the land will receive the subsidies you issue."
