Chapter 692 Anchoring Object
Chapter 693 Anchor
The drums were beating loudly outside the box.
The bright lights are like a sea of orange.
Lu Gang closed the window, and the room suddenly became quiet, cut off from the hustle and bustle.
The little mirage flew around and passed in front of everyone's eyes.
"Why have you become smaller?"
Make a circle around the long pine and measure the size in steps.
Tell the truth.
The box is exquisite, the fruits are all peeled, and the incense burner is even more fragrant. The only shortcoming is that it is not as big as the one in Pingyang Mansion. The box for ten people seems a bit small.
"This moment is like that." The watermelon was carved into the shape of birds and animals. Xu Zishuai cut off a crest and stuffed it into his mouth, then cut a piece and fed it to the third prince, "How can Pingyang Mansion compare with the Imperial Capital? Every inch of the Imperial Capital is rich in gold.
Without a grandmaster in charge, it would be good if we could have a ten-person room. Master said maybe we could be promoted to the fourth floor. Well, this watermelon is good. Come and try it, junior brother. "
"Where do watermelons grow in this cold weather?"
"It doesn't matter what you do, it won't stop if it tastes good. Come on, share it!"
"Will Tianbo Chamber of Commerce pay dividends to the court every year?"
Liang Qu sat on the Luohan bed, took the watermelon and chatted with Lu Jia who had not yet left.
"It doesn't matter whether we will get a dividend or not. When Tianbo Chamber of Commerce is in trouble, the royal family and even the court will help. When the royal family and the court are in need, the same goes for Tianbo Chamber of Commerce, and they even have to do their best."
Lu Jia never shied away from the relationship between the two parties.
Everyone in the capital who is powerful doesn't know the secret.
Liang Qu, the youngest tiger-hunting martial artist in Dashun, a hereditary baron, an eighteen-year-old from the fifth rank to the fifth rank.
The Martial Saint did not dare to say that the Grandmaster was certain and had already entered the realm of being able to know.
It's just that because there is no family history, there are many things that I don't ask about and no one comes to tell me.
Many things belong to common sense and consensus in the circle, but for example, there are no books specifically written about how to open and close eyes. If you don't encounter it and don't ask, no one will mention it at all.
"What does the imperial court need? Let the Chamber of Commerce collect Baozhi?"
Liang Qu was surprised.
No matter which aspect, the imperial court is looking down on the Tianbo Chamber of Commerce, right?
Lu Jia thought for a moment and took out a silver ingot from his pocket.
"Master Liang, what do you think this is?"
"silver."
"Be more general."
"More general?" Liang Qu hesitated for a long time, unable to guess what Lu Jia meant.
"Perhaps what I hinted was inaccurate and caused Mr. Liang to misunderstand. This thing is actually just a stone in its essence."
Liang Qu nodded, indicating that he understood, and asked Lu Jia to continue.
Lu Jia pointed to the withered lotus on the table.
"Why can stones buy precious plants?"
"Because people need to trade, one person cannot farm, weave, make furniture, and fish at the same time, so there needs to be general equivalents, and gold and silver are the most suitable."
"General equivalent?" Lu Jia was stunned, "What Mr. Liang said is quite appropriate, but the earlier ancient dynasties did not recognize gold and silver because they were completely useless.
For example, in the ancient Dali Dynasty, the martial arts practitioners in the territory at that time were called Qi Refiners. The territory was not divided into states, but was divided into sects. It was extremely independent and ordinary people were slaves.
The so-called Dali Dynasty is actually the most powerful sect called the Dali Tianhuo Sect, which can control the sects in the world.
When mortals enter a sect and practice practice, they have almost no contact with ordinary people. They trade with each other and all use the basic elixirs for practice, such as the Qi-Building Pills and Qi-Yi Dans we use today. The sects and sects In between, you kill me, I kill you, it is almost normal. "
"Where is the food? Qi refiners need to eat, right? The two phases are in circulation and gold and silver are not recognized?"
"Master Liang, all mortals are slaves. If practitioners want to eat, do they have to pay? Just keep a group of them in captivity and let them farm the land."
Liang Qu was silent.
“Therefore, practitioners and ordinary people at that time used two sets of currencies. Ordinary people used ordinary people’s coins, and practitioners used practitioners’ coins.
No one thought it was wrong, and it was even very convenient. However, according to the records in the classics of the Dali Dynasty at that time, both the scale of the warriors at that time and the top masters were far inferior to those of today.
There are many reasons for this. Many old scholars have published many books. Each has its own reasons. There is no final conclusion. Some say it is because the sect was changed into a state capital, and some say it is because of different systems.
But there is a basic consensus among them, that is, there are more people, and there are more common people, so there are more warriors, and there are more warriors, and so there are more martial arts masters, and there are more martial masters, and there are more masters, and there are more martial saints, and everyone has become stronger. "
Liang Qu nodded.
"soil."
"Yes, it's soil! Mr. Liang has great insights!" Lu Jia praised it.
It's not difficult to understand.
The warrior society is actually a pyramid structure.
Ordinary society still has the theory of ellipse, but it is simply not possible in a spiritual society.
Therefore, the wider the base, the larger the entire pyramid structure, and the brighter the top.
There are many sects, and the sects are all small pyramids. The well-developed pyramids gradually eliminate the backward pyramids in order to occupy more resources and absorb nutrients.
Like animals, systems will survive and the fittest will survive, and natural selection will occur.
No matter how high you are, you are still essentially inseparable from the masses.
"Master Lu, continue."
"Cultivation has no end. No matter how strong a person is, there is no guarantee that he will be strong for a lifetime. No descendant will surpass him, unless he kills him, risking a genius to kill a genius.
But people are always negligent. Killing cannot be done cleanly. No one is born with a murderous nature, and even if there are, they are only a minority.
So in the end, they will turn to stable unity, form a family, a clan, a sect, and a dynasty, sleep peacefully, and eat well.
The ancient dynasty was isolated from ordinary people in two worlds, which was actually digging its own grave.
Even a strong country like Dashun would have two rivals, Beiting and Nanjiang, and would not dare to slack off. If the current Dashun is the same as the past Dali, it would definitely not be able to beat Beiting.
Therefore, the biggest role of the Tianbo Chamber of Commerce throughout the prefectures is to help sell treasure plants and stabilize the value of silver, so that silver can be circulated smoothly from the Martial Saint to the common people.
The common people can buy treasure plants, and the court can also buy treasure plants by collecting taxes from thousands of people. "
"It's interesting. "Xu Zishuai's eyes flickered.
It is definitely a good thing that the people can buy the treasure plants, but the biggest beneficiary is the court.
Because after everyone accepts it, the court can also buy it with silver.
Liang Qu thought more deeply.
Previously, the lowest level was warriors, and now they have become ordinary people. The overall efficiency of wealth circulation has undoubtedly expanded by more than ten times.
Becoming a sect of the ancient dynasty, if a sect behaves like this and makes progress, it will naturally want to annex the mountaintops, and slowly everyone can only follow and assimilate...
The white mist is floating.
Lu Jia poured a cup of tea.
"At present, in fact, the Grandmaster realm can barely be stabilized. Although the denomination of silver is large, it can still be seen frequently, but it is more difficult to reach the Martial Saint.
I believe that Lord Liang has heard that the Tianbo Chamber of Commerce has auctioned the Heaven and Earth Changqi, but the main auction method is still barter. Many Grandmasters do not want silver, but only want the elixir that can increase their cultivation. "
Liang Qu understood it completely.
No wonder no matter which state or prefecture, no matter how poor, there is always a Tianbo Chamber of Commerce.
Pingyang County was renamed Pingyang Prefecture and they immediately rushed to build one.
Anchoring prices in disguise.
It can even open up the upward channel for ordinary people.
"What time is it? The auction should start." Lu Jia raised his head.
Hu Qi pushed open the window.
The master of ceremonies shouted from outside.
"The first item is Tianlong Gold, the material for Xuanbing, starting price, two thousand taels! Each bid must not be less than five hundred taels!"
"Just right, don't miss it."
