Crown Tang emperor

Tian Shao'an and the others were naturally overjoyed after hearing the words, and kowtowed their heads repeatedly to thank them.However, since such a result has been known for a long time, it is inevitable that there is an element of acting, and it still seems a bit exaggerated.

Of course, few people in the hall pay attention to the details of these acting skills, and everyone is shocked by the performance of the old clothing club.For example, some craftsmen's associations are still down. They were originally organized by the government to coordinate craftsmen and facilitate the collection of lesson fees.

But those Hu chieftains were really embarrassed. As soon as the old clothes club met, they handed over a huge company to King Yong, so how should they express it?

It is of course impossible to follow the example of Guyishe.The organization of the bank is originally a private association of the people, and it does not have too much control over the members' personal and property, but this naturally does not include those Hu chiefs.

Although they have been attached to China, they have learned more about Chinese etiquette and farming and weaving skills, but they still have strong tribal habits.Although those attached Humin also assigned households and granted land, most of them were still directly attached to them. Regarding this point, the imperial court did not order too strict rectification.

If they also follow the example of Guyishe, it will be tantamount to handing over the property of Buqu, which is of course impossible.The reason why they went to great lengths to meet His Highness King Shangyong was undoubtedly to hope that the shogunate could protect their rights and interests, not to give up their families and surrender.

Of course, not all Hu chiefs were panicked and shocked. After all, the shogunate had communicated with some people before establishing the Social Supervision Office.

For example, the Qu family of the Gaochang survivors and the Gao clan of the Koguryo survivors, their respective leaders are still closely related to His Royal Highness King Yong, and have quite a lot of contacts.

So while the other Hu chiefs are still hesitating, the leaders of the two societies have already stepped forward and said: "His Royal Highness, the army will work hard to calm the chaos, restore the stability of the people's livelihood in Chang'an, and punish the thieves and people in the countryside so that the people who suffer People living in chaos will no longer die in vain. Xiaomin and others are grateful for their kindness, and have nothing to offer, only a meager salary. Please accept it with a smile, and reward the king, teachers, generals, and soldiers!"

When Su Yue put away the gift list, Li Tong glanced at it casually and put it aside, feeling in his heart that these Hu people were still sensible.When his army first landed on Bashang, these people had already donated a batch of supplies, and now they are presenting another gift, the quantity is quite considerable.Unlike those honorable families, who rely on Yuan Cong's old achievements to be stubborn, they would rather die than honestly serve.

Of course, a little extra money would not confuse Li Tong with the Hua-Yi debate. The Hu attached to Guanzhong will break the original tribal organization and formally organize household management in the next period of time, which is also a key point of the shogunate.

There is no need to innovate in this regard. The imperial court's strategy of controlling the Hu has actually been carried out quite well.Although it is said that in the upper-level military, there is a bit of the ills of Hu Feng being too strong, but in terms of civil governance, there are no major disturbances.

With the leaders of the two tribes expressing their views, the other Hu chiefs breathed a sigh of relief.They tried their best to come to see King Yong, and they were already prepared to offer gifts, so they also brought a list of gifts with them, not to mention the amount of gifts, but at worst, they will add them later.

Next, the head of the second-class agency came to the hall to meet. This time, there were more people, nearly a hundred people.And most of them no longer use manpower to form associations, and have some taste of industrial and commercial capital.Like Baoli Xingshe, an uncle of Yang Li's family came forward.The rest of the city's garment clubs, weaving and dyeing clubs, incense shop, etc. are also listed here.

The first appearances of various societies also have their own performances.The number will not be mentioned for now, but such an obvious behavior also shows that they are still quite ignorant of the functions of the newly-built Social Security Administration.

If it is said that in order to control the market and purchases in the official market, the imperial court has set up a city supervision office, and the government offices such as the Ministry of Households, the Secretary of Agriculture, the Taifu, and the Shaofu also have relevant governance.Now that a new social supervision office is established, most people think it should be used to collect money.

Of course I don't like letting people pay out.However, most of the heads killed in Chang'an Xishi were from Yuan Congxun's family, which also let the people of Chang'an see the violent and cruel side of King Yong.

Chang'an is the largest market in Kansai. Many merchants have been operating here. If they can avoid disaster by paying money, they are really reluctant to give up everything in Chang'an City.

Seeing that although everyone had their own performances, their expressions were mostly depressed, and Li Tong gradually became able to understand their feelings.I think it's not bad to have a reputation of being greedy for money, at least it saves a lot of lip service.

He needs to mobilize the manpower and material resources accumulated in Chang'an in a short period of time to deal with the next foreign aggression.A few days ago, urgent reports from other prefectures had arrived in Chang'an. The new Turkic Khan silently led his troops to the south along Helan Mountain, bypassing the Hetao and directly attacking Yuanzhou in the pass.

In order to avoid causing panic among the masses, this news is still under blockade, and the shogunate is making intense preparations for the attack on silently sipping.The Shendu court only had vanity conferments this time, but they did not give Chang'an much material support. In order to avoid a complete enmity with the Shendu court, they had to raise part of this year's rent and transfer fees and so on.

Next, Li Tong needs to deal directly with the two major frontier troubles of Turks and Tubo, and the battle line even needs to extend to the Western Regions, and also needs to take into account the restoration of people's livelihood in the pass.Now that he is short of money, his eyes are turning green, so he doesn't care about his reputation.

Of course, not everyone has a painful expression on their faces.

In the second-class agency, there was a club leader named Qingcheng Shu Brocade Agency, who seemed to be in high spirits. After going up to the hall to see the ceremony, he stepped forward and took out two flying money drafts from his pocket, raising his hands in congratulations. He said: "I am delighted to hear that His Royal Highness King Yong condescended to sit in the Yamen to meet the people in Beijing. He has no time to prepare gifts in a hurry, and he is afraid of being disrespectful if he goes straight in alone. Here is a special gift of 100 million yuan in cash. Your Highness respectfully accepts it!"

As soon as this remark came out, everyone was shocked, and it was even worse than the old clothing club before.After all, there were only a dozen people in the hall just now, but now there are more than a hundred people in the hall.

Moreover, this person's money is too big. Although there are many rich people in Chang'an City, there are not many people who casually spend 100 million yuan, or even almost none.Even if those honorable families have been rich for a hundred years and have accumulated a lot, they are all material industries. Whoever has nothing to do with millions of floating wealth to show off.

Li Tong was also shocked when he heard this number.The money collected by the imperial court for annual lessons is only a little over a million mins, even if his grandma made Feng Chan, the budget was only a few hundred thousand mins, although in the end it didn't work out.But the money brought into the capital also eased the money shortage of the imperial court. Even since his fourth uncle supervised the country, he had used this batch of money for turnover.

Li Tong already thought that he was a high-ranking and important person and would not be too petty, but for a while, he was a little dizzy from the huge sum of money.

Looking at the other party again, he was dressed in a brocade robe, standing tall and elegant, with a good temperament, not like a vulgar merchant, but more like a polite scholar-bureaucrat.Of course it was part of the money, but this man stood on the spot, and his demeanor was really eye-catching.

He glanced at Su Yue calmly, Su Yue quickly handed over a note, Li Tong looked down, and suddenly became amused, as expected, there has never been love for no reason in the world.The other party's generosity is not simply because Yong Wang is handsome.It's not that he has no name, but he is Song Bazi, a rich man in the middle of Shu.

After learning his identity, Li Tong regained his composure, and then a trace of dissatisfaction arose in his heart.If you give the money, you will give the money, and you have to report the numbers to show that you can do it, right?Look at scaring everyone!

I am collecting money to make money, everyone quietly presented gift lists, and finally I still have a little dignity.When you call, the last tacit cover is gone, and the two have become a naked money relationship. I am shameless?

Song Bazi went to the hall to donate money, feeling a lot of apprehension in his heart. Although he lowered his head, he was still sizing up King Yong from the corner of his eyes.When he noticed that King Yong's brows were frowning, he cried out secretly in his heart, and hurriedly bowed down again: "Your Highness's reputation is as powerful as thunder. I am honored to come to the hall to meet you. Donating money and goods is by no means an invitation to favor. You can't express your gratitude without this heavy capital." Your Highness's admiration is deep!

Your Highness created Feiqian, a ticket to cross the Guanshan Mountain, to relieve the difficulties of our people in Shu. This is a virtue beyond the reach of human beings since the beginning of the world. There is nothing to boast about in Xiaomin District except for saving money. This is the only offering. !Your Highness's kindness is higher than the Shu Mountains, flying over the Qinling Mountains, and the villagers can donate their lives to receive this favor, not to mention mere vulgar things! "

When Li Tong heard this, his face softened slightly.I want money, but also face.Giving money is giving money, offense is offense, two different things.However, this Bazi Song is quite sensible, and Yuan's words are very decent.Apart from other things, Li Tong is not ashamed to accept the million-dollar wealth of Shu merchants with a smile.

Having said that, although this Bazi Song is flamboyant, he is not arrogant, so it is worth paying attention to.

With this in mind, Li Tong raised his hand and said, "But if you can live and enjoy the convenience of the people, there is no need to talk about the rest. Although money is connected to all things, when you are poor, you are hungry and thirsty. It is not appropriate to be a businessman. Loyalty and righteousness are the foundation of life. Losing a million dollars is not a joy, but it is not a waste of time to be able to observe the virtues of local scholars."

Chapter 0558 is a matter of course

As an important period of social change in the Tang Dynasty, the way of accumulating social resources far exceeded that of the previous dynasties, so a group of private rich people also emerged.

Like Zou Luotuo, a wealthy businessman in Chang'an during Gaozong's period, showing off his wealth in front of the emperor, wrapping the tree in silk, so that the trees in the south can be exhausted, but the silk on the shelf is not exhausted.In the Kaiyuan period, Wang Yuanbao was richer than a prince, and even paved the road with copper coins, which was more expensive than the sand embankment dedicated to the prime minister.

These are just the deeds of wealthy merchants recorded in unofficial history and anecdotes, and there are more other unseen classics.For example, the Yang Li family that Li Tong was familiar with belonged to a well-capitalized Shu businessman.

As for the Shu merchant Song Bazi in the hall in front of him, he is even more famous than Yang Li's family.In the original history, in the late Wu Zhou Dynasty, he went in and out of the court banquet because he made friends with the Zhang brothers, and his name was even recorded in the official history. It can be seen that he belongs to the outstanding group of Shu merchants.

Of course, the current situation has undergone major changes. Empress Wu Zetian has retired to the second line many years in advance, and Zhang Yizhi's brothers naturally have no bright future, let alone this Song Bazi.

However, the reason why Li Tong knew this Song Bazi was not only because of historical records, but because of Yang Li.In the past year, Yang Li went north to Chang'an precisely because of this Song Bazi's dispute over commercial exclusion.Moreover, Song Bazi began to engage in political speculation very early, and once dedicated his daughter Jin to Wei Wang Wu Chengsi.

Because of these previous events, Song Bazi invested a huge amount of money, and he must have saved his life with money.

Seeing His Royal Highness King Yong's expression turned amicable, and even called him a villager, Song Bazi's originally tense heartstrings were slightly relaxed.Since King Yong went west, he has lived like a year.

Since ancient times, the people have not fought with the officials. Although these Shu merchants have strong capital, if they do not have the support of official relationships, they are just fat sheep waiting to be slaughtered in the eyes of the powerful.

As a leader among the Shu merchants, Song Bazi is naturally more ambitious. His goal in life is not as simple as making money from breeding goods, and he has been actively moving closer to the real powerful class.

After years of hard work, it can be regarded as fruitful. Song Bazi not only had close outings with many dignitaries in Chang'an City, but even climbed up to Wei Wang Wu Chengsi before, which can be regarded as the initial contact with the top circle of dignitaries in the empire.

Of course, that was in the past.At the end of last year, news of the coup d'etat in Shendu was like a thunderbolt. Song Bazi never dreamed that the prosperous Wu clan kings would be put to death within a day.

Of course, he didn't care much about Wu Chengsi's life or death, but the line that he spent countless money and energy on was cut off.What's worse, the one who killed Wu Chengsi turned out to be King Yong Li Shenzhi.

In the subsequent development of the situation, every change was almost a torture for Song Bazi.King Yong not only killed Wu Chengsi, who he had invested heavily in Shendu, but was also sent by the court to Chang'an to be in charge of calming the chaos and sitting in town for a long time.As for those honorable families that King Yong killed in Chang'an, if they were investigated carefully, they would actually have more or less ties to Song Bazi.

After all, as a businessman, one must follow the principle of making money with kindness, and if you want to live in Chang'an, you must show goodwill to these local snakes.

Things have developed to this point, Song Bazi is not completely desperate.After all, he is far from the level of King Yong, and King Yong may not care about a mere merchant in him.

But a few days ago, King Yong announced in the side street of Chunming Gate that Yang Li, who was also a member of the Shu merchant group, would be included in the gate, and Song Bazi no longer dared to take chances.

It's not that he didn't know that Yang Li had joined King Yong's line before, but the internal strife and encroachment among the Shu merchants was a normal business behavior.

When he gained power, he couldn't help but squeeze out Yang Li's family, and Yang Li's family's north-south freight business is so big, of course, it is impossible to just get rich through hard work, nothing more than big fish eating small fish.The conflict of interests between merchants is not worth the help of the dignitaries behind them.

Moreover, when he learned that Yang Li's family was close to King Yong, Song Bazi basically put away his actions against the Yang family's business.Although King Yong did not have the power he has now, Song Bazi knew that he was not something he could underestimate.

But now, King Yong announced in public that Yang Li has become his concubine, and judging by her posture, Yang Li is quite favored by King Yong.At least when Song Bazi presented his daughter to Wu Chengsi, he was just a maidservant. Even Song Bazi visited the door several times and saw his daughter dancing in the hall to entertain guests. Objection.

Of all the wind sounds in the world, only the pillow wind can be heard the most.Seeing King Yong's love for Yang Li, Bazi Song felt completely hopeless for a moment.If King Yong wanted to deal with him, it was just a thought, not to mention that he himself was not clean.

Even King Yong didn't need to speak, some officials in Chang'an watched his words, even if it was just to please the new lady, it was enough to make him doomed.

Moreover, Bazi Song would not be safe even if he wanted to escape from Chang'an. It must be known that King Yong's eldest brother, King Li Guangshun of Han, is currently serving as the chief historian of the Governor's Mansion in Yizhou.Even if he fled back to his hometown, he would still die.

So this time, taking advantage of King Yong's sitting in the social supervision office to meet the people in Chang'an, Song Bazi brought a huge sum of money to see him, and he was also desperate to survive.If King Yong's understanding cannot be obtained, his life can basically be said to have come to an end.

A huge wealth of one million yuan is an astonishing amount even for Song Bazi.In order to make up this sum of money, he not only sold off a large amount of industrial goods in Chang'an City, even though the current chaos and the new settlement, the market is sluggish.He even dismantled a lot to some close villagers, begging and intimidating, he was unlucky, and those people would inevitably be implicated, so he managed to scrape together a huge sum of money.

The reason why he only donates money and uses flying money bills is that Song Bazi also has a lot of considerations.

The most important point is that everyone knows that King Yong is behind Baoli Bank, which runs Feiqian. Now that there is a new chaos in Chang'an, merchants have doubts about Feiqian's credibility.If these huge sums of money are not enough for King Yong to be lenient to him, then King Yong has to think about Feiqian's credit.

Seeing that the results achieved by his painstaking efforts were good, Song Bazi felt a bit of ecstasy for the rest of his life for a while, but he didn't dare to get carried away because of it, but bowed more respectfully: "Xiaomin was sleepy in the old years Fascinated by the sea of ​​money and goods, there is no morality or righteousness to be called. Even if there are some small contributions now, it is only because of the perception of His Highness's benevolence and righteousness. His Highness has returned to the town this time, and there are thousands of people alive. Praise and gratitude. As one of the educated people in the world, although Xiaomin is ashamed and despicable, he still dares to meet him, just to prove His Majesty's righteousness, and dare not praise himself."

Hearing this conversation, Li Tong couldn't help being more satisfied with this Bazi Song, and couldn't help feeling secretly that this Bazi Song was indeed a bit of a truth, no wonder he was able to toss into court banquets as a merchant in history.

Song Bazi donated huge sums of money to King Yong and praised him frequently, although both parties were very satisfied.But the mood of the other people present was quite complicated, especially those Hu chiefs who were the first to enter the hall, they were even more suspicious at the moment. Before, there was an old clothing club to contribute, and later, Song Bazi contributed. The huge sum of millions of dollars made them wonder whether it was King Yong's order or their own actions.

If the former, what signal will King Yong use to convey to the public?Could it be that they want to take advantage of this newly established social supervision office to use all the manpower and material resources of Chang'an City for their own use?

Li Tong was not in a hurry to explain the confusion to everyone, but continued to summon the leaders of the Zhuxing Society who were in the back row.However, the number of B and C companies in the rear has increased sharply, and it is difficult for all the heads of the companies to come to the hall. They can only choose some representatives to come to the hall, and others sit on the ground outside the hall.

"Today we met with the head of the Baiye Society to establish a new Social Supervision Office for the He Shogunate. Presumably you are also curious about what the rules and regulations of this Social Supervision Office are and what it supervises."

Li Tong didn't make a fool of himself, and after the first meeting of the various societies, he began to talk about the main content of the day: "Since the founding of the country, the rule of benevolence has been universal, and all industries have prospered. There may be short-term difficulties, but the morals of the world will eventually move forward with high spirits. Shengmin perform their own duties, and the industry is booming.

You are all leaders in your respective fields, and now you are gathered in the yamen hall, the people are magnificent, you can see that what you said is true.Although the imperial court has complete rules and regulations, the world is changing day by day, and it also needs to catch up with the current situation and supplement the format for the convenience of the officials and the people.The Social Supervision Administration, as the name suggests, is not for governing the people, but only for supervising the society. "

When everyone heard this, their faces showed a bit of unnaturalness. After all, no one would like to be under more control and be exploited more.

Li Tong didn't care about the emotional changes of the people, but continued: "People have their seniors, and industries have their heads and tails. If there is no order, everything will not prosper. Trees have dead branches, and if they are not repaired, they will grow up. Harm. Chang’an’s old history was turbulent, although the damage was not deep, but it can be called a policeman. Now Jingnei Fang City is depressed, the industry is sluggish, and the prosperity of the past is no longer there. Everyone feels the pain.

Today, the Social Supervision Office is newly created, bringing together all kinds of industries and societies, and it is for the revitalization of various industries.The department will set up a community treasury, accumulating 500 million yuan, and subsidizing the recorded societies. I hope that the people can enjoy the benefits and live hard! "

As soon as this statement came out, the audience was silent, everyone stared wide-eyed, with expressions of disbelief on their faces, they looked at each other with wide-eyed eyes, wanting to prove whether they had heard wrong.

Li Tong was very satisfied with the reactions of everyone present, as the saying goes, if you want to take it, you must give it first.

Cooperatives are a new way of concentrating social resources when society develops and cities develop to a certain extent. The current system actually does not have a good management method.Even in later generations, this is still the case.If you want the relevant people to obey the management, you must first express the superiority of the system to them.

Before that, the shogunate had been discussing plans to subsidize citizens and stimulate production and consumption, and put forward many ideas, but Li Tong felt dissatisfied.

The subsidy targets proposed by the assistants are mainly natural persons, such as public servants who have been rewarded by the imperial court, or those who are over a dozen years old and have a few families. This is also the usual method in the past.

However, these methods are only aimed at individual living people, and the needs of living people are generally single, nothing more than basic needs such as food and clothing.Chang’an’s new economy is in turmoil, and there is an inevitable shortage of supplies. Sending money to the hands of ordinary people may stimulate their desire to hoard grain to prepare for shortages, and rush to buy a few limited daily necessities. In and out, at least it will not cause too much benefit to the production of various industries.

So after thinking about it, he decided to change the target of subsidies from individuals to cooperatives.In this way, although it will stimulate the further development of the agency, it is also logical to gain control over the agency.After taking my money, I always have to check what you used it for.

As for whether this will cause the bank to lose its tail, this is too much to worry about.Because the development of ancient Eastern and Western firms was fundamentally different.

Western guilds or guilds were formed at the beginning of the establishment of the city-state. It was an organization for civilian practitioners to fight against the nobles of the city-state.The East, on the other hand, prospered in order to compensate for the ruling model when the cities developed to a certain scale.

The timing and motivation of the two are completely different, and there is also a fundamental law of governance in ancient China, which is to organize households and Qimin.The people are first of all registered citizens, and then have a layer of agency status.

Production firms mainly focus on the research and inheritance of crafts, such as the manufacturing industry during the Tang and Song dynasties, where the government provided official samples and other production standards for production and procurement.Commercial firms mainly control prices, avoid vicious competition, coordinate capital, and participate in officially organized buying and selling activities such as official purchases and mutual markets.

It can be said that there was no rebellion from the beginning of the establishment of ancient Chinese banks, and there is no room for such development in the future.As for the collusion between officials and businessmen, political speculation, and the Great Qing Dynasty that Shanxi merchants cultivated through hard work, they all have specific backgrounds and personal demands, and have no essential connection with the organizational model of the bank.

Of course, the subsidies mentioned by Li Tong are mainly aimed at companies related to production and sales.

As for Nestorianism, Zoroastrianism, and some religious associations, such as Buddhist associations, they will never appear in the subsidy list, but the membership fee must be paid back.I can respect your beliefs, but you also have to respect my power, otherwise the ban is not negotiable!If you dare to gather in private again, you will be punished for treason!

Not only the heads of the various banks were shocked when they heard such a generous subsidy from the shogunate, but even the shogunate staff present were a little dazed for a while.Because of the previous discussion by the shogunate, this time the subsidy is capped at 300 million yuan, and the main form is Feiqian IOU, which further establishes Feiqian's credit through the settlement of Feiqian.

The reason why Li Tong temporarily increased the price was of course forced. Even a mere Shu businessman in Song Bazi raised his hand and threw out a huge sum of 100 million yuan. If the shogunate only had a quota of 300 to [-] million yuan, it would not be surprising enough, and it seemed petty.

And his lack of money is a lack of money, but the main thing he lacks is the materials that money can exchange for.Today is not a future generation with overwhelming productivity and abundant materials. There are great constraints on the production and collection of materials, and money may not necessarily buy things.

For example, Song Bazi donated the 100 million cash. Li Tong was a little shocked at the beginning, but he didn't pay much attention to it afterwards.So what if you have money, I have blocked Qinling, Longdao and Hedong, so that you can starve to death with money. One million coins is far less important to him than one hundred thousand coins.

After a period of astonishment, all the people present came to their senses one after another and kowtowed to thank them.

"Subsidy agencies, the Social Supervision Office will publish its own charter to the public later. At that time, you can select the subsidy items, and you can log in to the agency for inspection. This kind of subsidies will come one after another, and the income of the agencies is not fixed. It may increase or decrease. Within the rules and regulations of social supervision.

Since you are the leaders of the society, whether you can contribute to the well-being of the society can be used to measure whether you are competent or not.Although the market associations are not officially selected, they declare their own feelings.Water can carry a boat and overturn it, even the ancient kings and the people cannot help but pay attention to it carefully.

Since you are honored and honored, you must do your best!It's a matter of course to advance and retreat! "

Speaking of this, Li Tong got up and left the office, and then promulgated and explained the regulations, and the assistants present would do it for him.

Chapter 0559 financial help people, all industries will prosper

The establishment of the Social Supervision Office and the promulgation of various rules and regulations caused an uproar in the entire Chang'an City, as well as lively discussions among the people.

To be honest, since King Yong returned to the west, the evaluation in Chang'an City is not very good.Although King Yong quickly settled the chaos and promulgated some strategies to relieve the people, the overall impression he gave people was still negative, at least with mixed reviews.

For example, the payment of fees by the students of the Imperial College, the promulgation of the "Residence Order", etc., although they are mainly aimed at the powerful and rich in Chang'an City, their essence is still to collect money.Even ordinary people will hardly be affected, but more or less they will leave the impression that King Yong is greedy and greedy.

But this time the shogunate actually issued a huge subsidy of up to 500 million yuan, which is really surprising.

"A few days ago there were idiots in the square saying that His Royal Highness Yong is greedy and wants to scrape off Chang'an's fat to enrich himself! What a joke, His Royal Highness Yong is beyond words, he cares about his family and country, and he does everything for the community and the people. It is really annoying to be slandered by those ignorant thieves!"

"I have said long ago that His Royal Highness King Yong has a noble sentiment. Otherwise, how could he write those wonderful words that are sensational all over the world and are sung in East and West! In the old year, Qujiang held a gathering and had fun with the people. His Royal Highness Yong really cares about the common people. Being able to return to the town of Chang'an is the blessing of our people in Guanzhong!"

"Five million yuan! So much money and goods are willing to be scattered, no wonder His Royal Highness King Yong had to collect more, otherwise, where did so much money come from to subsidize the people's livelihood?"

"Those bastards who slandered His Royal Highness Yong's reputation must have jealous and evil thoughts in their hearts. Maybe they are rioters who have not been investigated before! His Royal Highness Yong is so benevolent, how can we Chang'an people be ungrateful? Which thief dares to be ungrateful in the future? I have criticized and slandered His Highness in front of me, I must capture him and escort him to the government for questioning!"

In the marketplace, there are voices of gratitude and praise everywhere. In this atmosphere of word of mouth, for a while, King Yong has no time to be famous, and there is no more bad words or criticisms.

Of course, not everyone was confused by the huge sum of 500 million yuan. Some people still have the ability to think independently and think that this matter may not be as good as people preach.

"How much is 500 million coins, you ignorant people really know? That's a full 50 billion copper coins! Several large warehouses can't hold it, folded into materials, and can fill half of Chang'an City! In the entire Western Market, it is rare to find such a huge sum of money. How did His Highness King Yong raise such a large amount of goods to distribute to the people? Maybe the shogunate deliberately exaggerated to confuse the people, in order to cover up the earlier omissions and reverse the public opinion..."

Someone said so, with the posture of a wise man who is drunk while everyone is awake.

But soon someone laughed and scolded: "The toad at the bottom of the well doesn't know how big it is! Before King Yong was sitting in the Social Supervision Office, a wealthy businessman donated a huge fortune of millions of dollars! You say that others are ignorant and stupid, I'm afraid it's because you are ashamed, I don’t know how rich and noble the world is! There were so many participants that day, even if not everyone was so rich, the accumulation would be huge. Millions of wealth is not difficult for His Royal Highness Yong!"

"Even so, King Yong is pretending to be generous. Others are forced to lose money and donate due to power, and he will pass it on to the people of Chang'an. If you throw 500 million coins in one hand, King Yong will only get more. Why bother to brag about your kindness! If King Yong can distribute the wealth of the family to the people, that is the true benevolence and righteousness!"

"You disgusting thing, what kind of evil are you to show off like this? Could it be that your old mother borrowed your blood essence to conceive you, so you don't have to be grateful for the gift of childbirth? King Yong is powerful, so what does it matter to you how much other people donate to him? There are rich and powerful people, how many rich rats in the warehouses have fattened you, and he is willing to give you a grain or two?"

"I'm just discussing the matter as it stands, and I don't want to be coerced by the ignorance of the people! The world is so big, can't there be room for one or two voices? If King Yong is really benevolent, how can he care about the people's doubts? The government didn't question the crime, but it was a lowly pawn like you." Frustrated! Even if you want to be a follower of King Yong and respect your descendants, King Yong may not see you, a despicable ant people!"

"King Yong has a heart for the common people, and I am willing to be his servant! Even if His Highness doesn't see you, I will kill you, a disgusting thief full of evil words today!"
