Chapter 127 One Hundred Thousand Gold

"Ahem, Yang Yushi, please respect yourself. Please don't hinder us from reading the Queen Mother's decree."

Upon hearing this, Yang Yanzhang smiled almost out of his eyes: "I'm sorry, I respect myself. You declare what's yours, don't worry about mine."

As he spoke, he knelt on the ground to welcome the Queen Mother's decree.

In general, Yizhi is a document about management methods. After talking about whether there are any, it is time to receive the award. After receiving Yizhi, Yang Yanzhang looked behind several father-in-laws, but unfortunately he did not see anything. Golden carriage.

"Where are you, father-in-law, one hundred thousand gold?"

"Yang Yushi, one hundred thousand gold is in this box."

Looking at the big box in front of him, Yang Yanzhang was dumbfounded. Such a big box couldn't hold [-] gold. Is it possible that checks are now popular?
But when he opened the box, Yang Yanzhang was stunned.

I saw a box of copper coins neatly placed in the box.

"Isn't that one hundred thousand gold?"

The house attendant looked strange: "Yang Yushi doesn't think that one hundred thousand gold is 10 taels of gold, right?"

You know, the entire Tang Dynasty only pays a small amount of taxes in a year. Today, one will be given ten thousand gold, and that one will be given ten thousand gold. Datang will go bankrupt in a few days.

The father-in-law left, and Yang Yanzhang was very unhappy.

He thought that one hundred thousand gold might shrink, but he didn't expect that it would be so watery, using one hundred thousand copper plates to make one hundred thousand gold.

"Oh, forget it. Although there is not one hundred thousand gold, one hundred thousand copper plates is not bad."

Yang Yanzhang sighed and took out the copper coins from the box.

After all, this is a reward, don’t give it up for free.

After placing all the things given by Wu Zetian, Yang Yanzhang called Wang Xiaojie.

This young general walked with great speed.

These days, Wang Xiaojie's soldiers are responsible for suppressing E County to prevent riots.

Yang Yanzhang and Wang Xiaojie came to E County, which was almost fully built after the earthquake.

There is only one thing Yang Yanzhang has to do next, and that is mining.

He remembered clearly that E County was a good place, with gold, iron, and copper mines almost every two steps.

There is even a mountain of coal.

Under the leadership of Yang Yanzhang, the entire E County began mining with great vigor.

With the million taels of silver that Wu Zetian had provided in advance, there was no need to worry about running out of money.

All the tools were brought by the soldiers sent by Wang Xiaojie, and they only needed to dig according to the instructions on the drawing.

"Master, look here, let's dig here."

Yang Yanzhang followed several craftsmen to dig for a long time, but nothing was dug out. He couldn't help but frown and said: "Didn't you say there is a gold mine? Why is there nothing?"

One of the foremen said: "Sir, it is said that this is an underground ditch washed away by floods, and the contents inside have been washed away long ago."

Yang Yanzhang nodded: "That's right. Let's go ahead and fill up the underground ditch first, and then let people dig deeper. Even if there is a gold mine, you won't be afraid of being buried underneath."

Yang Yanzhang made the final decision and the construction site started again.

after one day.

A group of people came from a distance, and after arriving near the construction site, they stopped and observed carefully.

"Brother Li, this Yang Yanzhang is really capable. He actually built a city wall in E County in a short period of time. It seems that E County is really not simple." The leader was wearing black clothes and had a long stick stuck behind his back. sword.

Standing next to the man in black was another thin man in green.

"Brother Li, although E County is rich, it is remote and a wild land. It is not easy to manage it well."

The man in black shook his head: "Yang Yanzhang, I once met him in the capital. He was just a seventh-grade official at the time. I didn't expect that in just a few years, he would be doing so well. Even more so now. Become a celebrity in front of the Queen Mother."

"However, this person has evil intentions and is vicious. He loves to harm his colleagues. Brother Li must be careful about this person and do not make enemies with him, otherwise he will definitely bring trouble to his door."

The man in black nodded: "Don't worry, I certainly know that I won't offend Yang Yanzhang easily."

The man surnamed Li breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Yang Yanzhang with disgust.

"This person must be eliminated."

The man in black nodded: "Well, Yang Yanzhang is very scheming and cannot leave any future troubles. However, this matter is not urgent. Let's go to E County first and take a look."

Yang Yanzhang is busy, and the people of E County are also very grateful to Yang Yanzhang. After all, if it weren't for Yang Yanzhang, E County would probably be doomed.

Now walking on the road in E County, there are many people who are grateful to him.

Even Wang Xiaojie, who was walking next to him, had people kowtow to thank him.

Wang Xiaojie, who was born in a family of generals, had the first time to experience the life of ordinary people so closely. Looking at the muddy faces in front of him, and the people who could kneel down to thank them for a mouthful of porridge, Wang Xiaojie was deeply moved.

Looking at the scene around him, Wang Xiaojie murmured: "It's great, it's great! I never dared to think about such days before, and I think such days should last for a long time, and our E County will become more and more prosperous." .”

Yang Yanzhang nodded: "Of course, don't forget, this is my fiefdom."

In fact, Yang Yanzhang had already prepared to build his own armed force here.

For example, establish a cavalry battalion in E County.

The main task of this cavalry battalion is to protect one's own safety.

After all, as a staunch censor, he definitely offends a lot of people on weekdays, so the issue of personal safety still needs to be considered.

Yang Yanzhang believes that as he develops, his soldiers will become stronger and stronger, and his enemies will become more and more powerful in the future.

But these all take time to accumulate slowly.

Yang Yanzhang stayed in E County for three or four days and finally found what he wanted in E County.

"Master, I found it. There is indeed a gold mine here."

Yang Yanzhang happily patted the foreman on the shoulder: "Well done, I'll remember you, and you will be the squad leader from now on."

This sentence made the foreman beam with joy, and he kept nodding and bowing: "Thank you, sir, thank you, sir."

Yang Yanzhang pointed to the underground ditch in front of him and said: "Dig this underground ditch deeper, and then we will be able to find the gold mine."

The foreman nodded quickly after hearing this.

But at this moment, there was a sudden cry: "Dog officers, you bunch of dog officers, spit out the gold mine."

Yang Yanzhang looked up and saw a strong man glaring at him, cursing in his mouth.

"Brother, I am Yang Yanzhang, I don't know what you mean?"

"Hmph, you corrupt official hid gold mines in a ditch. Do you want to die?"

Yang Yanzhang snorted coldly and shouted: "Nonsense, this is E County, this is my fiefdom, when will it be your turn to run wild here, come on, Wang Xiaojie, arrest them all."
