"The son of heaven guards the gate of the country, the king dies and the country is in danger."
Fiji murmured and repeated this sentence, with a more and more dignified look on his face.
After a long silence, Fiji bowed deeply to Xiao Ming, "Your Highness Gao Yi, you will be a bright King in the future. This is the blessing of our country and the people."
Xiao Ming smiles and doesn't explain. In his opinion, the capital of Youzhou is very close to the sea. Secondly, only the capital of Youzhou can completely solve the border problems in the north.
Rejecting Fiji's offer, Xiao Ming follows Ye Qingyun to Prince Wei's residence.
Different from the simple style of his palace, Wei palace is extremely luxurious. The main hall is just like Chengqing palace in the imperial city. Behind the main hall is a winding stone path. At the end of the path is a river across the palace, and a stone bridge across the river.
On the other side of the river is another complex of buildings, which is the sleeping Hall of the king of Wei and his concubines.
"When I was in Chang'an, I heard that Prince Wei's mansion was extremely luxurious. Now it seems that it's true." Fiji said.
Ye Qingyun said: "the king of Wei is not the most luxurious place in Jinling City. His highness and Feige will know what luxury is when they look at the Treasury of Jinling City."
Xiao Ming and Fiji look at each other. This is the key point of their visit to Jinling City. After hearing the words, Xiao Ming said, "what are you waiting for? You don't lead the way."
"Yes, your highness." Ye Qingyun said with a smile.
Then they came out of the Wei palace and went all the way west. Ye Qingyun stopped by Xuanwu Lake in Jinling City, pointed to Minfang on the side of the river and said, "Your Highness, this is where Jinling City's Treasury is."
Xiao Ming looks at the direction Ye Qingyun points to. There are many pavilions in the folk square not far away, just like a palace complex.
"Is this the Treasury of Jinling City?" Xiao Ming asked.
Ye Qingyun said: "yes, your highness, Wei's tax income in these years is in this treasury."
Fiji is also a little dazed. The buildings in this folk square are connected one by one, like a long dragon.
With some expectation in his heart, Xiao Ming walked to Minfang. After a 20 minute walk, they arrived at Jinling City's imperial palace.
When he got near, Xiao Ming realized the huge size of the mansion. There were wide halls in front of him, and each hall was connected back and forth. At this time, the soldiers of Dengzhou army were guarding in front of these halls.
"Your Highness, there is silver in this treasury. The general has already sent someone to count it. There are eight million taels of silver in total." Ye Qingyun said.
The glasses of Fijian and a group of officials suddenly widened. Fijian said, "the king of Wei is really very rich."
At this time, Xiao Ming's heart beat with frustration. What Qingzhou bank lacks now is silver. If there is enough silver, he can issue bank notes based on silver.
So much silver is now stored in the palace of the king of Wei, which is a timely rain for him.
Under the guidance of Ye Qingyun, he and Fiji entered the Treasury together. Suddenly, a silver light made his eyes tingle slightly. There were neat silver ingots piled up in the Treasury, and each silver ingot was in a long shape.
He picked up a silver ingot and weighed it. A silver ingot would cost at least one jin.
Eight million taels of silver is eight hundred tons. It is estimated that all the savings of the king of Wei in the past ten years are here.
"Your Highness, we are rich." At this time, Fiji could not help dancing excitedly.
Ye Qingyun continued with a smile: "what is stored in this hall is silver, and what is stored next door is copper and copper money. Compared with silver, this copper can be more."
"Go and have a look." Xiao Ming's heart is in full bloom. This time, he really made a fortune overnight. This time, he made a big profit in the business of Wei Di.
Then they went to the copper hall, where 1200 tons of copper were stored. Then they went to the hall where cloth, raw silk, tea and porcelain were stored.
At the end of the trip, they went to the granary in Jinling City. But now ye Qingyun doesn't know the exact amount of grain in the granary. Because the amount is too much, it can't be weighed at all. They can only take the account book of the granary as the criterion. It's five million stones in total.
After learning about the Jinling City Treasury, Xiao Ming seemed to be relaxed. He said, "now the problem of grain is finally solved. With the grain collected from Wei, the army of the feudal state will not worry about the lack of grain."
"Exactly." With a smile on his face, Fijian said, "with the support of Wei Di, your highness is like a tiger."
"Ha ha ha..." The crowd burst into laughter at the same time.
Coming out of the Jinling palace, Xiao Ming said to Ye Qingyun, "by the way, where is the king of Wei?"
"Your Highness, now the king of Wei is being held in the prison of Jinling City, and his relatives are also being held in custody."
Xiao Ming nodded and said, "take me to see him."
"Yes, your highness."
Ye Qingyun takes Xiao Ming to Jinling City prison.
After another 20 minutes, Xiao Ming and others arrive at Jinling City prison. At this time, ye Qingyun sends someone to the prison to bring up the king of Wei.
After a while, the dirty king of Wei came out of the prison.Xiao Ming sighed a little when he saw the pale and dispirited king of Wei. Compared with the brilliant king of Wei before, the present King of Wei is just a bad old man.
At this time, the king of Wei narrowed his eyes, as if he didn't adapt to the light outside. When he adapted to the light outside, he saw Xiao Ming standing in front of him clearly.
"Xiao Ming, you are still here." The king of Wei said with a smile, "what's up? My Jinling City is very prosperous. "
"Jinling City is really prosperous."
Xiao Ming said lightly that he saw a trace of hysterical madness in the eyes of the king of Wei.
"Ha ha ha, I have such a rich Jinling City, but I was defeated by you. Why! Why on earth!" the king of Wei stared at Xiao Ming.
Ye Qingyun was standing closer to Xiao Ming for fear that the king of Wei might hurt others.
"Because it's not your destiny." Xiao Ming gave the king a desperate answer.
"Destiny, destiny." The madness in the eyes of the king of Wei gradually turned into sadness, "yes, the destiny is not in me, the destiny is not in me, it's not my fault, it's the destiny!"
Fiji sighed: "Your Highness, I'm afraid King Wei is crazy."
"No, he's not crazy. He's just too reluctant to fail." Xiao Ming said, "old Fei Ge thought how to deal with the king of Wei."
"The Wei King's treason is extremely serious. Only Bai Ling and poison wine can match it." Fiji has a firm voice.
Xiao Ming's eyes narrowed. The feudal dynasty was so cruel that every emperor would do it.
Now Xiao Ming has gradually adapted to the world, a world in which civilization is just budding, but barbarism is still dominant. If he wants to survive in this world, he must learn to be cruel.
He nodded, "give him a cup of poison bar, Wei died, no longer need a Wei king."
