Chapter 258: Gold Medal Talisman
Yang Qingxu pressed his hand and then said after everyone whispered, "The beauty of tea is not to be said much. Now my great man is willing to increase the supply of tea to solve the urgent needs of various tribes. Do you think this is a good thing?"
"It's a good thing." Everyone replied in unison.
Yang Qing said: "But this tea is expensive after all. Even if the government vigorously planted it, the annual output is only so much. The people in Shu are divided into one, and the people from the pseudo-Wei and Eastern Wu buy it. The number that can be divided into each tribe is very small.
In addition, after some of the tribes in other places were leaving, there was even less tea to supply to both places in Wudu Yinping.
There are so many tribes that need tea. It is normal for this one to buy more and that one to buy less. I am afraid that this one will change to tea and that one will not change to tea. In the transaction like before, some tribes will suffer losses. Do you think so?”
Everyone was silent, and Fu Rang also said softly: "There were several times before that tea leaves had been replaced by other tribes, and my Fu family didn't get a pound of tea."
Yang Qing sighed and continued, "That's it. The previous rules are out of place. We reorganize the rules to make all tribes drink fragrant and pleasant tea as much as possible. This is why I and General Ma Dai summoned you and others to come."
"Hmph, the government is full of good intentions, but you don't appreciate it. It's really hateful." Ma Dai slapped the table and said angrily.
"General, villain, etc. are confused for a while. I hope General and Yang Junhou will forgive the crime." Yang Qianwan, who was sitting in the lower left head, said with his fists.
Yang Qing waved his hand and smiled and said, "It is human nature to be confused for a moment. What is the crime of this? When discussing matters, we must express our opinions."
"Your Majesty is really broader than the sky, and the villain admires it." Yang Qianwan praised.
The others were also quite warm at this time. Seeing Yang Qing and other Han officials treating them with such a kindness, everyone's favor increased greatly.
Little did they know that today's strategy of discussion was discussed by Yang Qing and Ma Dai long ago. One sings a white face and the other sings a red face. Only by exercising both kindness and power can we conquer the hearts of these Di people and Qiang people.
Both sides solved the doubts, and Lei Jiao, who was in the lower right, asked with a fist, "I dare to ask General Ma and Yang Junhou what is the new rules for tea and horse trading, and I'll ask for instructions."
Yang Qing and Ma Dai looked at each other, and Ma Dai said, "I decided that a market will be set up in the northwest corner of the city that will be specially engaged in tea and horse markets. From then on, tea and horse markets will no longer be mixed with other transactions."
"It's good, it's much more convenient for us."
"It's impossible to build a market specifically."
"It's a good thing to go on the northwest corner of the market, and there are fewer roads."
......
Everyone agreed with this and had no objection. Ma Dai nodded with a smile, and then said, "Secondly, the gold medal talisman system will be implemented from now on. If there is no gold medal talisman, the government will not trade tea horses with him."
As soon as this statement came out, everyone was shocked. Before, they had to lead the horses to Ju County. Who knew what to do in the future would be to trade with gold medals? What is this? Isn’t it intentionally embarrassing me?
Although everyone was dissatisfied, after Ma Dai's scolding just now, no one was willing to stand up and oppose it. After a long time, Yang Qianwan, who was still close to the Ma family, asked, "Do you dare to ask General Zhonghua, what is the gold medal talisman system?"
Ma Dai said: "The so-called gold medal letter talisman is divided into gold medals, two items. The gold medal will be made of copper, and the letter talisman is made of iron. These two things are the certificates for you to come to trade tea and horses. Before you enter the market, you must show the gold medal letter talisman. Only after the two halves are combined can you be qualified to enter the market for tea."
"I see."
This system is clear and simple, so Yang Qianwan and others could understand it. They had to think about the gains and losses of the system, so no one spoke.
Seeing this, Yang Qing smiled slightly and said, "And the number and value of the gold medal talisman awarded to each tribe are not the same."
Fu Rang looked up and asked, "What does your lord mean?"
"The government will issue gold medal letters with different values based on the strength of each tribe and the closeness and alienation with our great man. If you are given a gold medal letter to the Fu family on three sides, you can lead two hundred horses on one side, while you can only lead one hundred horses on the other side. In this way, the tea leaves that each tribe can exchange for will be different."
Fu Rang nodded and said, "So that's the case. How many gold medals can I get from my Fu family? How many horses are worth?" Hearing his question directly, the others raised their heads and looked at Yang Qing and Ma Dai with bright eyes.
Yang Qing smiled and said, "Don't worry, you are all subordinates who are loyal to our Han Dynasty. The emperor has always been generous to reward loyal ministers. The gold medal letters given to you must be the first. As for the specific situation, General Ma will send someone to discuss with you and come up with a result that everyone is satisfied with."
After hearing this, everyone immediately smiled and felt relieved. After receiving Yang Qing's guarantee, the atmosphere in the entire lobby became harmonious.
In fact, in addition to attacking the prestige of the Ma family, these tribes are to take sides in advance to gain a future for Ji Han.
Now Yang Qing promised to award the first-class gold medal letter to them, which was a recognition of their loyalty to Ji Han. Although the court has not given them any great rewards over the years, it is now able to give preferential treatment in the supply of tea, which has satisfied them and feel that so many years of follow-up have not been in vain.
This was also something that Yang Qing did on purpose. It was time to give these pro-Han tribes some sweetness, which was to reward them and set an example. He wanted to clearly tell the Qiang and Di people on the Yinping land of Wudu that they would definitely have meat to eat with the Han Dynasty.
As for those tribes who are determined to follow the pseudo-Wei, such as those who are strong and strong in Yinping, you should not be foolish in Juxian in the future. For those tribes with both ends of the head and rat, you will naturally have to make some contributions to get the gold medal talisman. Giving them the gold medal talisman will be extremely strict, and the quantity and value of the gold medal talisman will be greatly reduced.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content later! This is the wonderful use of tea and horse markets, one pull, one hit, one reward and one punishment. In the long run, most tribes in the Yinping area of Wudu will surrender to the banner of the Han Dynasty. Although the two places have not been captured, they are actually the fat meat at the mouth of Ji Han. You can eat it any time you want.
Yang Qing had already explained the truth to Ma Dai. At this moment, Ma Dai could see clearly the performance of everyone. He thought that this method was really useful and would be a great achievement when it was implemented. Yang Qing was really talented and intelligent. My Ma family must have a good relationship with this person.
Retracting his thoughts, Ma Dai then announced: "In the end, before a horse can exchange for tea, I just set an approximate price. From now on, this will not be the case. It must be determined based on the quality of the horse.
The general discussed with Yang Junhou and initially planned to exchange for 60 kilograms of tea for a high-quality horse, fifty kilograms of tea for a medium-quality horse, and only for 40 kilograms of tea for a low-quality horse. What do you think?"
The price is actually quite fair, which is more in line with the current market price of horses and tea. Yang Qing and Ma Dai didn't want to do it too much. The first time the tea-horse market ban system should be implemented, it should be fair and just, so that others can't find any fault.
Yang Qianwan and others discussed with each other and thought the price was acceptable, so they all expressed no objection.
"Okay, all the rules of tea and horse trading have been explained. I saw that you all agree with it, but I still want to ask again, can you be the winner? Do you want to go back and discuss with your family's clan leader?"
Lei Shuo replied: "General Zhonghua, don't worry, my uncle told me before leaving, everything is based on what I mean."
"Yes, my brother handed everything to me, and what I mean was my brother." Fu Rang also said that he didn't need to go back and discuss.
Yang Qianwan has no problem. His father Yang Ju has already handed over the years the matters in the clan. Apart from his reputation, he is actually the leader of the White Horse Di, so he can make a decision.
As for the other small tribes who saw that the three families were all promising, they would not have the strength to say that they would go back to discuss. In fact, they wanted to drink soup with them this time, but they didn't expect to eat meat. Since it was far beyond expectations, they agreed.
After the discussion was finished, Yang Qing asked everyone to go back and rest first, and said with a smile: "Everyone, we will discuss other details later. At noon, General Zhonghua had ordered people to arrange a banquet and prepare fine wine. At noon, everyone will not return without getting drunk."
