The "thousand gold pieces" rewarded by King Gouchen of Wu had nothing to do with gold, but a cart full of bronze alloy.
There is a good one, they are all considered currencies, but they are available in every country.
There were sword coins from the Yan State, 鈥鈥 coins from the Jin State, and some shell coins from the Chu State and the Yue State, plus the "dysprosium" used in the surrounding areas of Suzhou, so we made up a thousand kilograms.
It sounds like a bullock cart will solve the problem.
Except that the foreign currency has turned blue, green and black, the domestic currency is still golden and must have been minted not long ago.
Mayor Li despises such a small amount of money. With such a cart of things, he can't even order two saury fish for dinner. A decent cigarette costs dozens of kilograms of copper? The quality of the copper is comparable to these.
Bronze is much stronger.
"Shou Li, should the thousand gold gifted by the King of Wu be put into the 'treasury'?"
As a descendant of the Ji surname, Gongzi Ba usually says "镈" instead of "money".
The word "money" was coined by Township Chief Li himself.
In simplified Chinese characters, the main entrance of a "big pavilion" has the word "Qianku" written on it. Next to "Qianku" is "Buku", across a village road, and opposite is "Granary".
The three warehouses are all "big pavilions", not only close to the water, but also equipped with double fences, and two turrets. Each turret can accommodate four people, divided into two shifts, and almost two teams of "White Sand Warriors" take turns.
"I'll take it as a fart, take them all away from Xia Liu, and go to the six countries to find some people."
He waved his hand casually, and Mayor Li was a little impatient. One thousand kilograms of copper coins sounded like a lot. But it was of no use at the moment because there was a lot of leather accumulated in Yinxiang. There were two to three hundred crocodile skins alone.
In addition to those hunted and killed by Yinxiang himself, there are also trophies obtained through extortion.
Roughly processed leather, even if it is just soaked in lime water, can be used as money. At least in the short term, the purchasing power is much stronger than the "dysprosium" used in the Gusu area of Wu State.
If you insist on saying that the effect of such a thousand kilograms of copper coins is melted and recast into farm tools and weapons, the effect may be even greater.
But Mayor Li rejected this idea. Even if "Baisha Yongfu" were fully armed with one thousand kilograms of bronze alloy, he would still be the younger brother compared to "Wu Jia".
Pointless.
As for making farm tools, stone farm tools are sufficient, and it is easier to process stone farm tools. As long as you master the grinding skills, whether it is drilling or cutting, there is no need for high temperature, high pressure and other messy conditions.
The most important thing is that making stone farm tools can organize more manpower. "The world has been decided". As the overlord of "Baisha", you have to let everyone have something to do together, right?
Living together, working together, and being beaten together, they will naturally get along.
Conflicts can be mediated and conflicts can be eased, which is particularly important for today's Yinxiang.
After all, in addition to the one-third of an acre of land in front of Yin Township, there is also a Pheasant County in the north of the Yangtze River. Mayor Li does not think that the "Nine Barbarians on Huaihe River" will just let it go, and he will definitely fight head-on.
No matter how "Huaiyi" is besieged by other countries, it is still a serious "country". Even if it is a loose alliance or a tribal alliance, it is much stronger than a "rabble".
Now with the Yinxiang Xiangshuai Certificate, which is the only certificate designated and certified by the King of Wu, the people of Xiangzhang Li have a louder voice in Pheasant, raise their chin higher, and their ability to frighten Uncle Pheasant's long tail has also been greatly improved.
strengthen.
So in general, there aren't many places where Li Jie will need a lot of bronze in the short term. He can just save a few dozen kilograms to make a helmet or armor leaves, and that's about it.
Whatever is left is a waste.
However, Li Jie could think so, but to Master Ba, it was as if he had been struck by lightning, and he was extremely shocked.
In Young Master Ba's view, Li Jie would use it to buy some weapons and equipment, or directly build weapons and equipment himself.
But he never expected that Li Jie actually asked him to take all the money away and then recruit talents.
This was something they had agreed on before, and they had already agreed upon it when they were still on the Yangkou Dazhen. But what Master Ba wanted at that time was to take the money from Yunting's "Wugeng" to buy slaves.
Add some linen, and then go back to your hometown to cheat as many as you can.
However, now it has somewhat disrupted Gongzi Ba's plan.
"Take everything...away?"
Gongziba, who was trembling and tongue-tied, asked again to confirm.
"Of course, take them all away. Why keep them? Can they be used as food? Find me more people who can read and come back quickly! Those who understand the Huaiyi dialect will be better. If they are suitable people, money is not
question!"
"..."
Although I didn’t understand everything, I could still understand a lot after hanging out with Mayor Li for so long. Young Master Ba was very shocked. He said with emotion: “The first Li despises wealth and values learning. This is a virtue.
"
"Damn it, De, do you know what is most important in the 21st century?"
Mayor Li put his hands on his hips, his eyes widened, and said proudly to Young Master Ba, "Talent!"
I didn't understand what "the twenty-first century" meant, but that didn't stop Young Master Ba from understanding what Li Jie was talking about.
It was probably a "tiger's body was shaken". In short, Young Master Ba was shocked, and then without saying a word, he gave Li Jie a long bow.
"Hurry up, don't waste time. Take my money and get out of here!"
"..."
The deep shock and emotion just now disappeared without a trace in a second.
Young Master Ba was even more unhappy and said to Li, "Aren't you afraid that this thousand gold treasure will be hidden by me?"
"Jiba, is your promise worth this thousand gold?"
Patting Young Master Ba's shoulder, Li Jie walked past him and shouted loudly as he walked, "Hurry up and leave while there are still boats on the pier. You can choose how many people you want to take with you."
Humming a little tune, Mayor Li clasped his hands behind his back, looking like a veteran cadre patrolling the territory. When he saw a young woman who was touching snails with bare feet in the newly built ditch, Mayor Li immediately whistled at the young woman who could catch his eye.
.
When the young woman heard the sound, she raised her head slightly and saw that it was Li Shu. She was overjoyed and quickly opened her collar a lot, revealing the white, tender and greasy piece inside. As if she was afraid that Mayor Li could not see clearly enough, she slowly
He bent down, raised his head as high as possible, his breasts drooped, and everything he looked at... was unobstructed.
"This view is really nice!"
Mayor Li chuckled, gave the shy smiling young woman a thumbs up, and then walked leisurely towards his "mansion".
When the young woman saw that Mayor Li didn't stop, she immediately let out a long breath like Mr. Ba: "Alas..."
As soon as he returned home, his brother-in-law Sha Diao rushed over in a hurry: "Brother Kun, something bad has happened! That ugly man from the Six Kingdoms wants to go west with the daughter of the king."
"Shut up! Get out!"
Sha Diao was stunned for a moment, then said hurriedly: "Brother Kun, that daughter is..."
"go out!"
Sha Diao, who still wanted to say something, had no choice but to walk out angrily. Standing outside the bamboo fence, Sha Diao was anxious all by himself. He stood on tiptoe and saw that under the eaves, his brother-in-law and sister looked very relaxed and content.
"Explanation, a thousand pieces of gold is a huge amount, it cannot be ignored."
Dan didn't persuade her, she just fulfilled her duty and reminded her husband.
Her belly is getting bigger and bigger, and the soreness in her calves, which is common among pregnant women, is getting more and more serious. Whenever Li Jie is free, he will come over and knead and massage Sadan's calves to relieve her soreness.
Under the eaves, Li Jie placed Dan's calf on his thigh, and then kneaded and massaged it lightly or heavily with his hands.
While squeezing it, he smiled and said: "Although a thousand pieces of gold is huge, it is not as good as Liu Yinuo, so what a pity."
Hearing this, the little brother-in-law who was scratching his head outside the wall suddenly high-fived and giggled.
