The family has a throne to inherit

Duan Siping held back his anger, and he headed straight to the royal city with his soldiers and horses, which were getting stronger and stronger.

In just a few years here in Nanzhao, there have been many coups, and everyone is used to it.Yang Qianzhen's high-handed rule is a nightmare for the people below. Now Duan Siping comes with a large army, and the slogans he shouted are extremely attractive. Except for Yang Qianzhen's confidant, everyone else must either directly take refuge or act as a coward. View from the wall.

After Yang Qianzhen confronted Duan Siping with the last soldiers and horses for a while, he was defeated and lost. Knowing that the general situation was over, he finally fled south with a little remnant of his troops.

After Duan Siping entered the city, he entered the palace under the kneel of a crowd of surrenders, looking at the appearance of the palace, for a moment, he just felt a little unreal.

However, Duan Siping is a hero after all, he quickly calmed down and prepared to stabilize the situation.Although Nanzhao copied many systems from the Central Plains, correspondingly speaking, it was not too cumbersome. After some nominal concessions, Duan Siping became the leader of the country under the election of all the people, and then issued an edict to change the country. The name is Dali, and the Wangcheng is also renamed Dali. Next, on the one hand, I will fulfill my promise, which is nothing more than reducing or exempting taxes, exempting three years of corvee, and abolishing the original strict government orders one by one. Now, the old officials of the Yang family who are guilty will naturally be investigated, even if the crime is not serious, since they have followed the wrong master, then what awaits them is to be expelled.

There are also testimonials from various tribes in eastern Yunnan that all ethnic groups in Dali heard the news and surrendered one after another. Of course, the premise is that they must treat each other equally. Just because Duan Siping’s wife is from the Bai ethnic group in eastern Yunnan, they can’t just favor the Bai ethnic group and treat other tribes as if they were useless. see.

Duan Siping's position is different now, so naturally his thoughts are different. Although the Bai family is an old man's family, the Duan family and the Bai family are also known to be married, but after he really becomes the lord of Dali, he has to do his best. Fairness, this is also to balance the strength of the Bai people.

This is also unavoidable. All the ministries in eastern Yunnan have made great contributions in this uprising, so naturally they must have corresponding rewards. For example, the Gao family and the Dong family have taken refuge with them from the very beginning.

But after some enfeoffment, in the court, the Bai family has a dominant posture, which is undoubtedly unfavorable for Duan Siping's rule.

However, Dali Kingdom has just been established, and it is a time when a lot of waste is waiting to be revived. Many policies can still be adjusted. Many things that were originally done in Hejiazhai can now be expanded first. For example, schools, when education is popularized, Then you can hold the imperial examination just like the Central Plains!

However, this is all for the future. Duan Siping ascended the throne here, and He Qinghuang was canonized as the queen, but at this time the crown prince has not been canonized yet, and several sons have to be brought back first.

After a hundred days of injury, even though Duan Siying was young and Duan Sijin took a lot of good medicine, when he arrived in Dali, Duan Siying had just recovered.Fortunately, Duan Sijin's bone setting skills are good, and it didn't make the two legs different lengths.However, after experiencing what happened to Yang Guixian, Duan Siying seemed to have become much more depressed, which made Duan Siping, who saw Duan Siying for the first time, feel a little emotional.

"You know what happened to your mother. I don't want to give her even a name for what she did!" Duan Siping said bluntly, "The evil ministers of the Yang family can either be punished or expelled. Those left behind by the descendants can only live as ordinary people! As for your mother, she is also a daughter of the Yang family, so let her cultivate herself in the nunnery! If you are worried, you can visit often, but you have to remember Wait, your surname is Duan, not Yang!"

Duan Siying nodded and said in a low voice: "My son knows!"

Duan Siping patted Duan Siying on the shoulder and encouraged: "You are still young, and you have experienced too little. In a few years, when you think of these things, it will be nothing! Work hard, Dad still has some errands to hand over. Here you go!"

When Duan Siying heard Duan Siping say this, she finally felt a little comforted in her heart, cheered up a little, and then nodded heavily: "My son knows!"

Duan Siying is not a fool. A biological mother like Yang Guixian is actually a stain on him. Therefore, he has realized that it is not his turn to be the future king of Dali Kingdom. Now Duan Siping still trusts him and is willing to Given the heavy responsibility, Duan Siying is very satisfied.

However, this is only a temporary matter. In the future, when Duan Siying really sees the benefits of power, whether he can still maintain his current thinking is another matter!

After Duan Siping talked to Duan Siying, he called Duan Sijin.

Regarding Duan Sijin taking Duan Siying to see Yang Guixian, Duan Siping still said a few words to Duan Sijin: "You, I still don't think too much, I know what you mean, ask your elder brother to persuade him, mother, everyone Take a step back, and then everyone will be happy! But things are not so simple in the world, if Yang Guixian is really a reasonable person, the relationship between father and her will not fall to this point!" Duan Siping just said Two sentences, in fact, I still feel in my heart that this is actually not bad, and I have made Duan Siying understand the reality earlier, and it will save Yang Guixian from turning around and being a demon again.

Duan Sijin didn't refute anything, and honestly admitted his mistake. Anyway, admitting a mistake with his mouth is nothing, and it saves a lot of tongue.

Duan Siping immediately found a sense of accomplishment in being a father from Duan Sijin. Although you know a lot of things, you are still a little too immature. Your father will always be your father!

Duan Sijin put the matter aside, and then Duan Siping naturally began to discuss the next plan with him.

Duan Sijin has never really governed a country, but in her previous life she had been swayed by what she saw and heard, and knew a lot of things, and now she has given Duan Siping a lot of advice.

Duan Siping lamented that there were not many reliable talents under his command, and it would not be a long-term solution to rely on those Bai nobles all the time, and there were very few people in each tribe who had really received a good education, even if they were waiting for Duan Sijin It will take at least ten or twenty years for the trained talents to make up for it. Such a long time is enough for each family to place their own people in key departments.

Duan Sijin said directly: "The Central Plains is currently in war, and the Tang Dynasty is troubled by internal and external troubles. Sooner or later, it will not be able to sustain it. There are many talents in the Central Plains. After all, they want a place to show their talents. Why don't we post a recruitment order and invite talents from the Central Plains?" Isn’t it good to come here to work?”

Duan Siping was moved for a moment, but he still hesitated: "Our Dali is just a small country on the border, and originally we had to pay tribute to the Tang Dynasty every year. Quiet, the tribute business has been discontinued for many years, but, among the Han people, our side is still a barren land, how many people are willing to come here?"

Duan Sijin said directly: "Father, our Duan family is also Han! The Han has become the ruler of Dali, no matter what, the Tang Dynasty is still our suzerain, so we should get a letter of credence! Spread the word about the situation in Dali! Also, the things we produce should not only be sold in Dali, but also in the Central Plains. People with a vision in the Central Plains naturally know the potential of our Dali, even if it is for Avoiding the chaos of war, there should be many who will rush over!"

Duan Sijin knew that since the Anshi Rebellion, the Great Tang was no longer what it used to be. Although there were several emperors who worked hard to govern, they could not restore the old rivers and mountains due to internal and external obstacles, and lost their respect for many places in the north. Control, many people are not so stable.Just like during the Anshi Rebellion, even those aristocratic and powerful families had to move their families southward, passed Jiannan Road, and took refuge in the middle of Sichuan. Cultivating life and rest in Shuzhong has left a good foundation for Shuzhong.

Now in the Central Plains, there is also an attitude of you singing and I will appear on the stage. Although it is still the Great Tang Dynasty, it is actually far from the original Great Tang clan!There are quite a few self-proclaimed kings in various places. This kind of divided and chaotic world is naturally a time for those heroes to show their strengths, but for the vast majority of people, it is really a nightmare to avoid.No one can guess about things like war. When bad luck will befall one's own head, even those aristocratic families will find it difficult to guarantee their own interests. Those warlords will count on the talents of these aristocratic families even if they have a long-term vision Those who are short-sighted to help govern one side are simply coercing and coercing, asking for money and food, and if they don't give them, they will directly raise the butcher's knife.

Under such circumstances, the stability of Dali is still very attractive to the Central Plains, especially if Dali shows that it is not inferior to the prosperity of the Central Plains, then there will be many people who want to immigrate with their families.

Duan Siping also sighed when he thought of what he saw and heard when he traveled to the Central Plains.The Central Plains has indeed undergone many changes in recent years. I don't know how many things have happened. The lives of the former heavenly nobles are like ants and cannot be preserved.

Now that I think about it, Dali can't say it. For many people, it is really a paradise!

Suddenly, Duan Siping's eyes lit up. What's the point of just recruiting talents? In fact, the best thing is to immigrate!Why did Duan Siping have to go to various tribes in eastern Yunnan if he wanted to counterattack Yang Qianzhen? Isn't it because Tiannan is a place where all ethnic groups live together, but the proportion of Han people is very small?Han people like the Duan family, if you really trace back, many of them came here because of the war in the Central Plains. The method was also a mess at that time. In order to conquer Goryeo and dig canals, young and strong people from all over the country had to bring their own dry food to become husbands. The Duan family lost a lot of men because of this, so they simply ran away.

Now that the Central Plains is in chaos, it is inevitable that there will be refugees. If these refugees can be allowed to immigrate to Tiannan, it will naturally increase the proportion of Han people in Tiannan, and it will also bring some Han technology. It may be said that there are some talents among the refugees!

Thinking of this, Duan Siping told Duan Sijin.

Duan Sijin thought for a while and said: "If this is the case, then we can't just grow rice, we should grow some food crops with higher yields, otherwise, refugees will be attracted here, and they will not be able to support so many people! "

Duan Siping said with a smile: "Isn't there Xiaojin you, you can definitely do it, can't you?"

Duan Sijin nodded: "I just need time, of course I can do it! However, in fact, Tiannan cannot accommodate too many people. There are mountains and forests everywhere, and there are actually limited places to grow and live. Therefore, even if you want to To attract refugees, there will not be too many!"

Duan Siping pondered for a while, knowing that Duan Sijin's words were reasonable, but he still said: "There are still too few Han people here in Dali. Although new laws have been promulgated, the leaders of various ethnic groups and those nobles, The power in hand is still too great. If there is no check and balance, there will still be troubles later. After all, the reason why they follow us now is that we have good things in our hands. However, in the future, these will not satisfy them. Then, What will they do?"

Duan Sijin nodded, but she knew in her heart that Duan Siping might have developed the desire to expand now, but because he didn't have many talents in hand and his accumulation was not strong enough, he could only delay his steps.

If Duan Siping originally needed to emphasize his Bai blood, now what he needs is to emphasize his Han blood.After all, according to the genealogy of the Duan family, the ancestor of the Duan family is the Duan family in Wuwei, which can be traced back to the Eastern Han Dynasty, that is, the Han people who migrated to the south.

But the problem now is that the embarrassment Dali is facing is that there are few Han people, almost all Bai nobles, which inevitably makes Duan Siping a little vigilant, so even if it is for future generations, he has to go The court hall is mixed with sand.

After Duan Siping thought it over, he brought up the matter in the court. The reason he gave was also very simple. Dali needs to improve, so it needs to learn the Central Plains system and more advanced technology.The relatively advanced technology is obviously not something that the illiterate can play casually. Therefore, Dali needs to popularize education to some extent.

In this regard, everyone thinks it is very correct. Yes, education is indeed very important. My little boy knew how to catch rabbits in the mountains and birds in the trees. Now he has learned a lot of skills with the son. What is wrong with the family? You can fix everything, but your words and deeds are completely different.All of them feel sorry for each other, the Holy Son is only one person, and he has no ability to separate himself, otherwise, how many little bastards can he teach!

After laying the groundwork, Duan Siping said that he wanted to recruit some scholars in the Central Plains, even if they were ordinary scholars from poor families, as long as they could read or have other skills, they could come to Dali. The conditions in Dali were very favorable. The house is divided into land and girls.That's right, Fenmeizi, after defeating Yang Qianzhen, many slaves were liberated, among which women accounted for the majority. There was no way, many men were dragged out to fight as cannon fodder, and these women were used to reward meritorious ministers!

It's a pity that among a group of heroes, many families have shrewd wives. Duan Siping is only a queen himself, and he has never been canonized as a noble concubine. , In the end, there are still many female slaves who are not married.

Of course, this is just a preliminary stimulus. Duan Siping directly stated that as long as they can complete the teaching tasks and how many people can read and write, then they can directly become officials. There are more chances.

Although the Imperial Examinations in the Tang Dynasty have always been popular, to be honest, there are not so many people who can pass the test, and there are not many people admitted in one subject. As for Ming Jing, those who pass the test usually don't get any good positions.In particular, the imperial examinations in the Tang Dynasty were all recommended by the states, and there were not many places in a state for a year.What's more, the wars have been endless these years, and the number of imperial examinations is also very small. Therefore, it is actually more difficult for most people to change their lintels through reading. Those who can really stand out in the imperial examinations must either be really talented. People, other people can't hide it at all, and they can always make a big splash; either they have a good background, so that they are easy to be remembered by the examiners, or else, you are a nobody, and you go around, and people don't know who you are!

Moreover, nowadays the Central Plains is actually dominated by warriors, with enough soldiers and horses in their hands, they can speak louder. Ordinary civil servants, in many cases, can only be reduced to cannon fodder, or nothing but grass.

In this way, Dali's advantage is quite obvious. As for the effect, I have to say something else, at least let the Central Plains know that Dali is not a barren land, on the contrary, it is also a prosperous and civilized place. It is said that there is a certain attraction, otherwise, they might prefer to go to places like Shuzhong.

Duan Siping has persuaded all the courtiers, but this matter is not something that can be done in a day or two. Therefore, at the beginning, Duan Siping just asked the caravan to go out with Dali's special products, and first promote Dali Besides the situation here, Duan Siping made a deal with the caravan, telling them that if they encounter refugees, they will bring them back.

Duan Siping's transactions with these caravans are almost the same as human population transactions, but they are not talking about money blatantly, but about the quotas of various commodities.After all, the production capacity of various commodities is limited now, and they must be used for their own use before they can be sold.

Originally, these caravans bought all kinds of medicinal materials, furs, and dyes unique to the mountains and forests in Dali at low prices. Items with relatively high value are luxury goods exclusively used by the nobles in Tiannan. The other main items are consumables such as food, cloth and tools. In recent years, due to the war in the Central Plains, the food in the Central Plains is relatively low. Insufficient, and because of the self-reliance of various places, cloth and silk are regarded as hard currency, so these things are sold more expensive.

But now, after these caravans discovered the new gadgets from Dali, they were going crazy. The goods they brought were all inferior. The food and cloth they brought over could not be sold at a reduced price. The food produced in the east is cheap, the taste is better, the fabric is fine and dense, the dyed color is very bright, and the tools and so on are also very practical.

Merchants have the most sensitive sense of smell. They immediately cleared the low-priced goods in their hands, and then began to inquire about the sources of other commodities that can be sold as luxury goods in eastern Yunnan.

Duan Siping sent someone to contact them and asked someone to bring them some samples. In order to fight for the distribution rights, they all wanted to fight.You know, the aristocrats on Tiannan's side, in terms of purchasing power, are actually at the level of ordinary rich people in the Central Plains, while the real rich people in the Central Plains are never stingy.

Therefore, after Duan Siping said that they should bring in refugees and exchange them for quotas based on their quantity and quality, they all took care of them.What are refugees? These years are full of chaos, and famines have occurred in many places. There are many people who can sell themselves for a bite of food. The imperial court has no way to help them. Young and strong, they filled their own army, and some directly became first-class bandits.

Duan Siping wanted it regardless of gender, and he didn't dislike children. He didn't care about old people if they could survive to the south of the sky. However, in troubled times, the elderly are the most difficult to survive.For these caravans, this couldn't be easier, especially, Duan Siping also said that they are willing to subsidize the food consumed along the way!

These merchants have already tasted the grains in Tiannan, and the taste is even stronger than that of tribute rice. The content of starch and protein, and the amino acids corresponding to the corresponding taste have also become richer, and the entrance is naturally sweeter.You must know that although the yield of Champa rice widely grown in the Central Plains is not bad, the taste is actually quite bad, even a bit bitter, but for ordinary people, the yield is enough, and the taste is not important.

Because of the taste problem, everyone subconsciously felt that the output of this thing would not be too high. Therefore, few people would think of purchasing a batch of rice seeds back. But it's over!These days, the quality and quantity of tribute must be guaranteed, and the money from the court is very little, not even a penny. After all, it is your honor that the royal family wants to use your family's things. How dare you ask for money!Therefore, if you don't pay attention, you can ruin your family.

It is said that a winery in a certain place developed a new recipe for brewing wine, and the wine it brewed was extremely mellow. As a result, the envious people reported it to them, and it was later designated as tribute wine, requiring [-] altars of tribute every year. It's still that big altar.Even if the poor winery tried its best, it could only guarantee the output of less than [-] jars.In the end, in desperation, the owner of the wine shop took his family and smashed the wine shop clean, and then threw a fire out, and the whole family was burned to death in the fire.

With such a lesson from the past, when it comes to things like tributes, everyone simply avoids them for fear. Even if the imperial court is not strong now, if someone uses the name of the imperial court to make troubles, even if they have backers behind them, these businessmen will not be able to handle it. Yes, so I will not mention it at all.

However, if they don’t grow their own rice, they can still make a profit by taking the rice from Dali home and selling it at a high price. Since Dali is willing to use this kind of fragrant rice to convert the rations of those refugees, there is no reason for these businessmen to be unwilling. I agreed, and didn't bother to pay attention to the loss this time. I had already made a lot of money before, so I hurried back to the Central Plains with a new batch of purchased goods.

On Duan Siping's side, he also sent a team to Chang'an to pay tribute with great fanfare, just to get a canonization from the Tang Emperor. Along the way, he would publicize the current situation in Dali and see if he could recruit some talented people.

These things can't be done in a day or two. Duan Siping's domestic affairs have not been completely straightened out yet, so he is not too anxious.He has begun to train the only remaining Han people in Dali, as well as people from other tribes, and he has encouraged the mountain people to come out of the mountains to farm.Although it is possible to open up terraced fields in the mountains, it is not so convenient after all, and if it is not done well, it will cause mudslides and so on. Therefore, it is better to live and plant in places where the mountains are relatively gentle.

Dali is now full of enthusiasm for infrastructure construction, and roads and cities are being built everywhere. Duan Siping was worried about financial problems at the beginning, but when Duan Sijin said, he directly subcontracted these projects. There are also some big businessmen in Jingxiang and other places who heard the news and almost swarmed. The imperial court directly packaged and sold the toll rights of the roads within 20 years. Court money.Everyone is very optimistic about the current situation in Dali. People are determined. After the road is repaired and the business road is smooth, there will naturally be more caravans. These are all money.In particular, the cement provided by Dali has greatly reduced the cost of building roads and cities.

Duan Sijin opened several salt mines and tea gardens in Dali, all of which were held in the hands of the Duan family and the imperial court. Whether it was salt or tea, ordinary ones were sold at a low price, and the salt tax was included in the price. Among them, the output of the salt mines in Dali is very large, at least within a hundred years, it can supply the daily food in Dali. !

As soon as Duan Sijin came up with a few ideas, Duan Siping could almost see the scene of a lot of money in the future. He had seen the strength of those merchants in Sichuan these days. They are not as rich as these people in Shuzhong.

It's no wonder that because of the terrain, Shuzhong has always been peaceful, with few wars, and the specialties in Shuzhong are relatively rich. Since the Qin and Han Dynasties, there have been many wealthy merchants in Shuzhong. Many people brought a lot of wealth into Shuzhong, and the commerce in Shuzhong was relatively developed, so those businessmen naturally had a lot of money in their hands.

However, merchants in central Sichuan are not very popular in the Central Plains. Such things as regional discrimination have existed throughout the ages, but it is different here in Dali. Dali originally borders central Sichuan, and they have more contacts with each other and understand each other better. , naturally there is not much discrimination or the like, or in other words, in the original time, people in Shuzhong still discriminated against Nanzhao people. After all, Shu people have always been under the rule of the Central Plains, unlike Nanzhao. It sounds like a bunch of savages.

However, Dali is clearly different now. These businessmen all smell the smell of money. In particular, Dali’s open attitude to the outside world makes these businessmen very excited. In places like the Central Plains, businessmen look rich, but in fact For the officials above, they are fat sheep waiting to be slaughtered. If they are not careful, their families will be ruined, and their wealth will be plundered for many years.Therefore, these businessmen have been keen to find backers.But in this kind of troubled times, many backers are unreliable, maybe encounter some mutiny, it will be over, and the family can only let mermaid.

But Dali is different. After all, Dali is a nascent regime and is in the stage of rapid development, because for a long time, it has to rely on caravans from the outside world to transport its own goods. Things are brought in, so the policy for merchants is quite tolerant, even the tax is not too high.

This is very attractive, especially, Dali is willing to hand over roads and the like to these businessmen to operate. Although the initial investment is relatively high, Dali has promised many preferential measures, such as the right of first refusal for many commodities, There are more discounts, so even if the road was built in vain, Dali quickly regretted it, and in the long run, it will not be a loss.What's more, Dali Kingdom obviously won't regret it so much. If Dali really offends these merchants, and no caravan comes in later, it will not be a good thing for Dali.

It can only be said that these businessmen think too much of their own importance. Could it be that Dali can't organize his own caravan?Of course, things like national credit cannot be lost. It’s not that after today, there will be no political power tomorrow, and you can get as much as you can, but it’s too late for this kind of country to search everywhere. What kind of infrastructure is it doing?

In fact, this kind of reform is only applicable to a small border country like Dali. Duan Sijin cheated and raised the productivity to almost the limit of an era. Originally, there was no serious system here at all, and he shouted to learn from the Central Plains, but There are few people who really know what the Central Plains looks like, and even if someone knows, they can make a lot of books and find a paragraph in it. Well, this is what we study, not the Tang Dynasty!After all, Datang himself is in danger, and the pills are about to be taken. What else is there to learn? We can learn from the ancients!Anyway, for so many years from ancient times to the present, everyone has tried a lot of systems, and you can find evidence if you search for them!

Under such circumstances, as long as everyone's interests can be guaranteed, everyone doesn't care what system it is!Businessmen or something, just give them money!After all, the things produced by various tribes cannot be digested by themselves. Most of the people here in Tiannan are still too poor. To buy soap for washing clothes or something, you have to use it carefully for several months. People in the Central Plains have a lot of money!In addition, if it is really unruly, you have to see if the guy around the big guy's waist is right!Therefore, one does not care!

Duan Siping himself has experienced a lot of subversion, but he is not a rigid person, even his mind has always been broad-minded, otherwise he would not have figured out martial arts such as the Six Meridians Excalibur. You know, people still pay attention to swordsmanship As for the moves, you are already unreasonable here, just relying on sword energy to push horizontally!And before this, even if there were any martial arts such as sword qi and sword light, they were all released through the sword weapon. Who would open their minds and use their fingers to release the sword weapon? The average person's body can't bear it at all, okay? !

Therefore, when he discovered that the system that had been implemented was pretty good, Duan Siping also realized that the system should not be copied mechanically, but should be adapted to local conditions.It can't be that now everyone doesn't rely entirely on farming for food, and everyone's eyes still stay on real estate!

The other people who followed Duan Siping were a little confused at the beginning. Many of them felt that their rights as landlords could not be guaranteed at the beginning. The labor force in hand, moreover, the government and many traditional nobles occupy too much human resources, but they are all wasted in messy places, and they have a large area of ​​land in their hands that has not been cultivated, so they finally accumulated some property. The result will be looted.

Now they find that their previous economic model can't keep up with the times at all. More advanced tools allow them to solve the problem only by hiring a small number of tenants, but food has become worthless in Tiannan, that is to say, they It is necessary to transfer manpower and wealth to industry in order to ensure that they will not be left behind.

Watching Duan Siping transfer some road construction contracting rights to foreign businessmen, some nobles who had a lot of capital in their hands are also eager to move. Some of them have money, because they don't understand the situation, they end up watching the good things. It fell into the hands of outsiders, and they all ran to find Duan Siping and demanded the same treatment.

Duan Siping is happy to see the success of this. Duan Sijin told him before that wealth is only wealth when it is circulated, and it is worthless if it is hidden in the cellar. Now, Dali's economy has become active under these actions stand up.It is inevitable that the leaders of each tribe have less control over the tribes below them. Originally, because of the harsh environment, they had to divide and cooperate. Some people planted, some gathered, some hunted, etc., in order to maintain their lives. Now, the advanced Farming techniques and more high-yield grains allow them not to spend too much energy on obtaining food. Duan Sijin also combined the experience of the previous life to produce several types of poultry and livestock that are suitable for breeding. After a series of cultivation, It can achieve a short breeding cycle and a high survival rate, which saves everyone from taking risks to go hunting in the mountains. In this way, food is no longer a problem, and everyone naturally needs more consumer demand.

The things produced by each tribe are not rare, but it is impossible for each tribe to produce everything by itself. Moreover, there are still many things that are not available. Therefore, this requires trading, and it is too inconvenient to barter. Anyway, Dali has no shortage of minerals, and Duan Siping has started to mint coins, gradually replacing all kinds of general equivalents in the original market.

The currencies minted in Dali are mainly copper coins and silver coins, and there are also a small number of gold coins. Copper coins are enough for ordinary people to live.The alloy ratio prepared by Duan Sijin ensures the luster, wear resistance, and toughness of copper coins. It also increases the melting point and reduces a lot of costs. The main reason is the production cost, which is directly stamped and shaped by water power. This makes it unprofitable for even someone who wants to melt copper coins to make copperware.For the convenience of carrying, these copper coins are still the same as the Central Plains, with an outer circle and an inner square, which also saves a lot of materials.

Therefore, in today's world, the purchasing power of Dali's copper coins is still very strong. Even merchants from other places recognize such copper coins more. They look glossy and are not easy to rust. Like a copper coin, too much tin is added inside, and it will shatter if it is dropped a little.

Those tribes who came out suddenly found that they also needed enough currency to make their lives better. Therefore, they naturally couldn't stay in the tribe to engage in production. They were happy to work in the workshop. Some of them followed Duan Sijin The students who were taught took some literacy classes, and those who knew a little arithmetic even started to learn to run their own businesses.

This is the case when people's hearts are not ancient. When everyone has selfishness, it is difficult for the chiefs of the tribe to restrain the tribes below. Moreover, they are actually fascinated by the colorful world at the foot of the mountain. Originally, the chiefs of these tribes At most, the leader is to share a little more supplies than others. In fact, there is not much advantage in the quality of life. Now, they can live in a big house, ride in a comfortable carriage, and have maids and servants to serve them. It can be said that some people who lack self-control , It simply fell down quickly.

Duan Siping is well aware of this, and is even happy to see its success. When the chiefs of the tribe lose their original dominance and appeal, then Duan Siping can better influence those young people, and they can move faster. Sinicization, integrated into the order established by Duan Siping, and when they go out later, the Han people in the Central Plains may not be able to see the difference between these people and them.As for the traditions of various ethnic groups, in Duan Siping's mind, there is no need to keep too much.

Of course, there are also many people with long-term vision who have seen Duan Si
