Seeing the people whispering among themselves, Su Chen felt that the time was almost ripe.
"Everyone in the Tang Dynasty, please be quiet for a moment. I have something to say to you!"
Su Chen came forward and shouted with a loudspeaker.
As soon as Su Chen finished speaking, the people all fell silent.
"Everyone, today is my big day, and I'm so grateful that you all can come and congratulate me!"
"I have received all your blessings and gifts!"
"So, here I have also prepared a return gift for you, and you must accept it in return!"
"This is a small gift from me to everyone!"
After saying that, Su Chen nodded to indicate to Old Zhao that it was time to start, and the people's eyes also looked towards Old Zhao and the others.
For the common people, it doesn't matter what kind of gift Su Chen gives them in return, they just look forward to Su Chen's thoughtfulness!
In their opinion, Su Chen has really made unparalleled contributions to them and the Tang Dynasty over the years. Even if he doesn't give them a gift in return, they won't say anything.
But now, Su Chen is so friendly, and the people love him even more!
Suddenly, Su Chen's reputation soared again!
When Lao Zhao asked someone to remove the red cloth on the frame, the people were stunned for a moment, and all the lively streets fell into silence.
The Hundred Stars were really shocked beyond measure!
Because in the sunshine, every leaf in the basket shines with dazzling gold!
Yes, the return gift Su Chen prepared for the people was baskets of gold leaves!
In Su Chen's opinion, since this is his first marriage, he must have an unprecedented act that can be recorded in history!
That bookstore doesn’t have much, it just has a lot of money!
Therefore, he simply planned to use money to create an unprecedented start!
In order to achieve this ambitious goal, Su Chen spent tens of thousands of gold this time!
All the gold dug from the Japanese country had been used up, and it took several months to turn it into pieces of exquisite gold leaves!
And if this gold was converted into copper coins, it would amount to tens of millions!
What is this concept?
You must know that Datang’s full tax revenue last year was only 90 million yuan!
And the gifts Su Chen gave to the people this time were already nearly half of the tax revenue!
How amazing this is!
The reason why Su Chen did this was not only to show off his specialness, but also to change the economic development of Datang.
Fueled by the bookstore, Datang's economy was developing rapidly.
However, the main currency currently circulating in the market is still copper coins, which in Su Chen's opinion is not conducive to future development.
Once the economy of the Tang Dynasty fully developed, the transportation and storage costs of copper coins would continue to rise.
Judging from the current situation of Datang, there may not be any problems in the next four to five years, but within ten years this problem will definitely break out.
In order to prevent currency transportation and reserve problems in the future, Su Chen decided to intervene in the currency reserves on the market in advance.
Once a large amount of gold appeared on the market in the Tang Dynasty, people would follow suit and use silver.
Once the people get used to this larger transaction method, the copper coin transaction will inevitably be slowly eliminated.
…
"Oh my God, what did I see?
I actually saw so much gold?
!”
"Yes, you read that right, it's really gold!"
"Oh my god, Lord Protector, is he going to give all of this to us?
This is too expensive!”
…
After seeing that the return power Su Chen prepared for them was gold, the people were frightened.
Su Chen was not surprised by the people's reaction.
"Everyone, this is a little treat I prepared for you, please don't refuse!"
"Don't worry, everyone present today will get a share, so I hope everyone will not rush to grab it!"
"Once I find someone disturbing the order and adding trouble to my big day, I will definitely not let him off lightly!"
Su Chen's tone was rare and serious, making the people feel a sense of gravity.
Su Chen had someone quickly pass on the news, and then Yi Lao Shao and the others could start!
"Everyone, please take it. This is all the Lord Protector's wish!"
Lao Zhao shouted loudly and took the lead in scattering gold leaves.
Wow! Wow!
Lao Zhao and others grabbed handfuls of gold leaves from the basket and threw them towards the streets on both sides, causing dazzling rays of light.
Under the sunlight, every golden leaf shone with golden brilliance, which completely stunned the people. There was a golden ocean everywhere!
“Really gold!”
I don't know who shouted, and the people immediately exploded. Everyone stretched out their hands to catch the gold leaves falling from the air.
And when some gold leaves fell on the ground, the people bent down to pick them up.
The streets are boiling instantly!
Su Chen was very satisfied with the effect of this return gift, and continued to drive slowly towards Tai Chi Palace Huang, while Lao Zhao and others were still swaying gold leaves.
"Don't rob, don't rob, and don't cause any trouble to the Protector!"
Although the people were very excited after seeing Sister Huang, they still did not forget Su Chen's previous instructions.
Moreover, in the eyes of the common people, with so many gold leaves, just picking up one or two pieces would be enough for a year's expenses, and there was no need to rob them.
Just like that, the city of Chang'an fell into a joyful atmosphere, and even the clouds in the sky were dispersed!
As for Su Chen's return gesture, the soldiers responsible for maintaining order were dumbfounded.
This...this is not even saying hello to them in advance!
Regarding Su Chen's generosity, the guards and soldiers were all confused and didn't know what to do.
"Quick... report the news to the adults!"
In the current situation, all the guards no longer knew what to do. They could only pass the news to their superiors.
Although the people have shown very good self-control now, there was no chaos or conflict at the scene.
But no one dares to say whether there will be any accidents later.
Today is the great day of the Lord Protector. If something happens to me, it will be far beyond what little minions like them can afford.
"Quick, increase the manpower, and we must control the emotions of the people!"
After receiving the news, the officials responsible for maintaining order quickly issued orders.
And His Majesty Li Er also heard about this matter soon.
Regarding this, His Majesty Li Er was a little bit dumbfounded.
"Mr. Guanyin, tell me, why does Su Chen like to do different things all day long?"
