Not to mention that Yuan Gu was supervised by several guards as he walked out of Shanglinyuan as if he were in mourning.
After this life, not only the emperor Liu Qi's impression of Liu De was greatly strengthened, but also the Queen Mother Dou thought this grandson was very good.
Well, half of the reason is because Liu De can speak according to her thoughts, and his acting style is quite in line with her thoughts, which makes her feel bright. The other half is because of women's natural sensibility. Women's tempers are
The most elusive thing in the world. Although Queen Mother Dou is a queen mother, she is still a woman. When she touched Liu De's cheek just now, she touched Liu De's cheekbone and inexplicably thought of her late husband, Emperor Taizong Xiaowen.
, seems to have cheekbones like that.
In fact, although the brothers of Liu De's lineage have different looks, they basically inherited some facial features of Emperor Taizong Xiaowen. In fact, almost every brother has similar cheekbones on his face, but Dou
The Queen Mother has been suffering from eye disease for nearly fourteen years, and her eyesight has been deteriorating in the past six or seven years. Do you still remember what the grandchildren who have not been at her knees for a long time look like? It would be great if you can remember their voices!
It can only be said that Liu De was lucky and had good luck. With the help of Liu De, he was able to be touched by Empress Dowager Dou, who then asked her to recall the appearance of Emperor Taizong Xiaowen when his eyes were intact.
The grandparents and grandchildren ate something and watched the performance for a while. At this time, it was getting late, and Emperor Liu Qi said: "Let's stop here today. The queen will return to the palace to rest early..."
Queen Mother Dou nodded and said: "Well, listen to the emperor..."
After saying that, she stood up slowly with the help of several maids. Liu Piao quickly followed and said: "Your Majesty, I will accompany my mother back to the palace first!"
At this time, Chen Ajiao was a little reluctant to leave Liu De. She pulled Liu De's sleeve and warned: "Cousin Liu De, you must remember that you promised Gillian that you would accompany Gillian to Ganquan Palace in two days!
"
Liu De smiled and pinched her cheek, nodded and promised: "Of course this cousin will remember it! A gentleman's words are hard to follow!"
Chen Ajiao happily followed her mother's footsteps and left.
After Empress Dowager Dou and Liu had gone whoring, and Chen Ajiao had left, only Liu De and Liu Qi and his son were left in the pavilion.
"Liu De, come, sit down..." After the Emperor Liu Qi watched Queen Mother Dou leave, he warmly greeted Liu De to sit next to him, held Liu De's hand and said, "How long have you and my son been like this?
Have you sat together?"
Liu De lowered his head and replied: "Back to my father, I remember that when I was seven years old, I accidentally fell off the fence of Sixian Garden. My father held my hand like this and comforted my son not to be afraid.
…”
In Liu De's fragmented and mixed memories, this is the last remaining memory of the tender love between father and son.
"Yes..." Emperor Liu Qi said with emotion and a bit of guilt: "I have been busy with national affairs these years and have neglected to take care of you children... In a blink of an eye, you have become so old and sensible, which is very good!"
When he said that the last sentence was very good, there was already some praise in his tone. Liu De knew how rare this was for his cheap dad who always prided himself on being strict and strong.
This sentence is very good. It is not only an appreciation for Liu De's performance today, but also an affirmation of his achievements these days.
Liu De immediately said very righteously: "I dare not praise my father as the emperor. I think it is all because of the father's teachings..."
"Don't be humble..." Emperor Liu Qi smiled and patted Liu De on the shoulder and said, "My Han family always rewards meritorious deeds. Tell me, what reward do you want?"
Then he looked at Liu De with a smile, waiting for Liu De's answer.
Liu De thought for a while, sorted out his thoughts and ideas, and then said: "I don't dare to deceive my father. I came to see your father today because I have something to ask for!"
"Tell me about it..." Emperor Liu Qi put away his fatherly look and said seriously. Once it comes to government affairs and state affairs, in his eyes, there are not many other personal matters to talk about. So,
For him, this world, this country, this country is like a heavy burden on his shoulders. Sometimes in his sleep, he is thinking about the government affairs, because he is afraid that one day he will be under the Nine Springs.
When he met the late Emperor Xiaowen, Emperor Xiaowen asked him: How is Jiangshan Sheji? But he was speechless.
Liu De took out the brand-new five-baht coin from his arms, handed it to the cheap daddy, and said: "Back to my father, I borrowed a coin-making workshop from the Shaofu some time ago.
This money was minted..."
Emperor Liu Qi took the five-baht coin in his hand and first weighed it. It felt heavier than the ordinary four-baht coin. Then, he held it in front of his eyes and saw the two characters "five baht" engraved on the coin.
Word inscription.
He groaned and asked, "Five baht?"
"Exactly!" Liu De kowtowed and said: "I have been researching the monetary history of various countries during the Warring States Period, and also diligently studying the coins of our Han family. I feel that the eight baht coin is too heavy and is not conducive to circulation, and the three baht coin is too light.
The people did not like to use it. As for the four-baht coin, which was mixed with fish and dragons, and the benefits of minting the coin were obtained by the princes and were of no benefit to the country and the country, the ministers thought, why not mint a new coin, which is heavier than the four-baht coin and lighter than the eight-baht coin.
What's more, can the new money be recognized by the people? At the same time, the benefits of minting money can be transferred from the princes to the state treasury! So, it was decided to mint these five baht coins. Today, the money is released, and I dare not hide anything anymore, especially
Come and report to Father!"
Liu Qi took the five-baht coin and touched it gently in the palm of his hand. This coin had an impact on the emperor Liu Qi in terms of shape, design and appearance. With his political wisdom, it was naturally very
It quickly occurred to me that if this money replaces the four-baht coin, it can basically paralyze the money-making industry, one of the two major sources of wealth for King Wu and Liu Bi. Even if it cannot, it can still greatly reduce the profits he makes.
.
The Art of War goes like this: If you eat the enemy for one minute, you will be my enemy for ten!
However, Emperor Liu Qi quickly thought of something and asked with a smile: "Liu De, you shouldn't have given this money to me for free, right? If you want any reward, just tell me, I will grant it to you."
!”
"Father, Holy Ming, how can such a little calculation of my son escape from the eyes of the father?" Liu De immediately flattered him and said with a smile: "I want to ask my father to grant me the right to become a son, but I can do it for you."
The government purchased this year’s protection grain..."
He lowered his head and hesitated for a while before he said his purpose in an embarrassed tone: "Didn't I get some bronzes from Shen Ni? I want to mint them all into five baht coins, and then use the money to
Purchase this year’s protective grain…”
This is the real purpose of Liu De coming to see Cheap Daddy.
Liu De knew very well that if the money he minted was not endorsed by the cheap daddy, it would be difficult to bring him any benefits in a short period of time, and it might even be difficult to even circulate and maintain capital.
And to contend with local protectionism and powerful bureaucrats and subordinates, he doesn't have the strength now.
In this case, we can only find another way out.
In later generations, there were widespread rumors of insider trading in the Great Celestial Empire. Various officials and businessmen relied on policy information obtained in advance to make huge profits by buying high and selling low.
And what Liu De did was just imitating.
Now Liu De clearly remembers that the Wu-Chu Seven Kingdoms Rebellion will break out in the spring of next year, and the price of food in Guanzhong will inevitably rise next year. And in his memory, this autumn harvest will be a bumper harvest in Guanzhong.
Therefore, all Liu De needs to do now is to take the power to purchase grain at protected prices into his own hands.
Then, taking advantage of the good harvest in Guanzhong, purchase several million stones of corn and stockpile it until next year, which will be a good profit.
Although the profit may not be large due to the protective price mechanism he proposed, that is not the key at all. The key is that his five baht money can be circulated through this channel without any hindrance.
Once finance begins to circulate, Liu De knows how big the effect will be.
Moreover, through this incident, Liu De not only further consolidated his status and advantages, but also truly tied everyone around him to his chariot, forming a terrifying community of interests!
Of course, Cheap Daddy will also reach in by minting five baht coins and share most of the profits generated by the five baht coins.
But even the rest is enough for Liu De to spend.
You know, there are tens of billions of coins circulating in the world of the Han Dynasty today. Even if Liu De only accounts for 1% of the profits, it is still hundreds of millions of money, enough for him to organize and maintain the development and growth of a political interest group!
