Xinshun 1730

Chapter 22 I Was Sold and Helped Count the Money
There may be only a few words between high-rise buildings and rhetoric.

Liu Yu stopped when enough was enough and didn't say any more.

There are too many specific military system reforms involved, and it cannot be resolved in a few words. This needs to be done slowly in the future.

But in general, if you have the heart, change should not be difficult.British brown bass has been used for a hundred years, and it has been effective, so just copy it and use it.

All he could think about was crossing the river by feeling England, following the path of the Lobster Soldiers, and letting the Lobster Soldiers go no matter what.

Because history has proved that lobster soldiers are the most capable fighters in this era, and they are also the most cost-effective. If you catch some scumbags and some homeless people who are sold by human traffickers, you can become an army.

The gap between the West and Dashun is not in the few flintlock guns, but in an all-round gap - a simple cavalry charge and turn is broken down into 32 simple "front, back, left, and right" orders. It is necessary for the cavalry to have the superb riding skills of the prairie people, and they can still make tactical moves that the prairie people can't do.

Not to mention geometry, ballistics, metallurgy, mechanics, astronomy, surveying and mapping, architecture, etc.

The Lumi blunderbuss of the former Ming Dynasty and the matchlock gun of Lumi Turkish origin imitated by Dashun today are all misguided and copied by the wrong master.

The arquebus of Central Asian origin is basically the way to lengthen the barrel to become a big gun in the end. Obviously, this way is wrong.

A British Brown Bass Rifle of the same standard cost £2 4s.

As we all know, Lord Niu's series of coquettish operations at the mint made the British pound bound to the gold standard early.

The exchange rate at this time is about 3 pounds for an ounce of gold, which is about one ounce of gold for a brown bass.

One ounce is about 30 grams, which is less than one tael. One tael counts, ten silver and one gold, that is, ten taels of silver and one brown bass.With the bayonet, it is estimated that 15 taels of silver is enough.

As long as you can make up your mind to imitate, with Dashun's low labor cost, the imitation brown bass should be able to lower the price even further.

Line soldiers don’t need armor, but Xu Guangqi’s “sale price” in the Ming Dynasty used to cost 12 taels for a set of armor.

Liu Yu is a time traveler with an unforgettable sense of urgency.

But Li Gan's thoughts were full of "Soldiers don't know generals, and generals don't know soldiers, so you can go to war." This sentence really touched his heart.

After all, he is the emperor, the throne comes first, the state comes after, and the nation comes last.The ass decides the head, this is never wrong.

Seeing that Liu Yu had stopped talking, Li Gan felt that he had found a talent today. Although Zhao Kuo and Ma Di would have to check again from time to time, this person at least seemed to be useful.

Thinking that it was a little punishment, he waved his hand to signal those who had been kneeling for a long time to stand up.

Liu Yu shook his legs quietly, and there was a faint pain in his knees, and he scolded the imperial power and feudal patriarchal clan down to eighteen generations of ancestors in his heart.

Even when he stood up, he couldn't look around, he could only stand there with his eyebrows lowered.

After a long time, Li Gan said, "We need to look at what you said. But this big Kongming lantern, don't play in the capital in the future."

"One is easy to catch fire, and the other is, what if some ambitious people take this thing to fly over the inner city, cross the Forbidden City and fall into fire?"

Liu Yu said yes, and knew in her heart that what Li Gan said was not wrong, and he could not be labeled as "unenlightened".

But after thinking about it again, the emperor's words are a bit cheating.If someone really rebelled in the future and really set up a hot air balloon attack to burn down the Forbidden City, wouldn't he be half responsible for it?
If someone gets a few barrels of tung oil, flies to the Forbidden City in a hot air balloon, and throws it down with a splash, just the wooden structure of the Forbidden City, wouldn't it be a fire?
At this time, there is no way to defend against air.

But according to what Li Gan said, flying is not allowed in the capital, but you can play outside the city?

This result is acceptable, at least for now, the emperor is not so resistant to new things.

With this result, Liu Yu finally felt better.

The rest of the people who were captured together with him were also secretly delighted, not to mention that they would be able to experience the feeling of ascension in the future, even if the emperor summoned them to see Tianyan, it would be worth it.

Li Gan took a closer look at Liu Yu and Tian Ping who were standing in front, and finally said with a smile: "You two are the first in the world to ascend, and you can be regarded as famous in the wild history, and you can also be regarded as the glory of my dynasty. Besides, you are worried. Border wars, his heart is commendable, and must be rewarded."

After speaking, he rewarded Liu Yu with a purse and rewarded Tian Ping with a snuff bottle.

After receiving the reward, I have to thank you again.

Holding the embroidered purse, Liu Yu couldn't help cursing inwardly, is there any use for this crap?

I can't sell it, and I don't dare to sell it. Even if I can sell it, it's not worth a few bucks. I still owe my mother 1000 taels of silver. You are an emperor, can't you be more generous?
It seemed that Li Gan had guessed what Liu Yu was thinking, and ordered the eunuch to reward Liu Yu another 30 taels of gold from his internal funds as encouragement.In addition, reward some miscellaneous things such as pens, ink, paper and inkstones, a tribute flintlock gun, which cannot be rewarded in person. After returning, they will offer incense and pay tribute to welcome the angel.

Finally, when the emperor left, Liu Yu and the others also left the Forbidden City, bypassed the Chengtian Gate, and arrived near Liubu Hall. They were really relieved and went to find the toilet.

In the Forbidden City, they didn't dare to mess around, and everyone shrank their heads and kept their promises.After leaving the Forbidden City, these people immediately became "superior people" again, no matter where they were, they huffed and went to the toilet, and then heard someone spit and spit at the son of Shifanghou.

The son of Marquis of Shifang blushed and didn't want to stay here, so he pulled up his trousers and covered his face and left.

As soon as he left, the mouths of this group of people began to become unclean.

"What birdman?"

"Damn! His ancestors were such people. This Shifang Marquis is absolutely right. Zhang Tianlin, the passing star, was also an old general who fought with the Taizu. The Taizu was benevolent and often used surrendered generals. As a result, the Manchus entered the customs. He The ancestors killed Zhang Tianlin and voted for the Qing Dynasty, and later voted back, surrendered from the Ming Dynasty, surrendered from the Ming Dynasty, surrendered from the Houjin, and surrendered from the Houjin again, what the hell!"

A few people were cursing, but what they said was a bit exaggerated. After all, those things in the late Ming Dynasty were too chaotic. Many ancestors of Dashun Xungui's children surrendered and jumped over and over again.

Moreover, Tian Ping felt uncomfortable saying that Shifanghou was not good, and the Duke of Qi, his ancestor, was not a good title either.

After all, this incident was caused by Liu Yu. Tian Ping was a little embarrassed because of his ancestor's title, and he couldn't speak. It’s all because of me.”

"Besides, regarding the past events of Taizu Taizong's time, Emperor Gaozong had already said that the past should not be blamed, and the old events will not be mentioned again. Don't talk nonsense about this. Let's stop here."

He was pretending to be a big-tailed wolf here, and he had tricked a group of people into acting as backers, but now he came forward to be a good person.

When everyone saw Liu Yu, they said they didn't care, but they just remembered that the fellow was not loyal, so they should keep their contact with him less in the future.

There were also a few students from Wude Palace who were born soldiers who were all smiling. Although today's incident was dangerous, if they didn't follow Liu Yu to watch the fun, how could they have a chance to see Tianyan?Besides, the female officials all wrote down their names, and did not betray Liu Yu when fortune and disaster were uncertain, which is really a major event worthy of celebration.

"Brother Shouchang, as a student in the inner dormitory, His Majesty De Meng saw it in person and gave him a purse. This kind of honor is really rare. Brother Shouchang must have a bright future in the future. You should go to drink to celebrate."

These few people are not in the capital, and they didn't think too much about it.

Liu Yu smiled wryly and said, "You guys are really big-hearted. I'm afraid our family is in trouble now, so we should go back sooner. How about this, I'll invite you again in a few days."

After finishing speaking, he said to those noble children: "Let's go back quickly, so as not to worry our parents."

After speaking, he made another joke.

"I'm afraid that after today's incident, your parents will tell you more to avoid contact with me, so as not to cause a big disaster."

As they were joking, everyone looked helpless. Thinking of the panic they had kneeling in front of the Jinshui Bridge before, and thinking of Liu Yu's audacity to talk in front of the emperor, they all shook their heads.

Jun thought: Do you still need your parents to tell you?In the future, if you, Liu Shouchang, have anything to encourage us, whoever goes will be your grandson!

Damn it, you made a fuss for a long time, and we watched the excitement, and our pants were so wet in front of the Jinshui Bridge.

In the end, you and Tian Ping have purses and snuff bottles, we didn't say anything, and we knelt with you two for two hours, and had to change our pants when we went back. After this, whoever wants to do it, we are quit.

But thinking about it again, Liu Yu is now in the emperor's heart, and his grades in Wude Palace are considered excellent, so maybe in the future it will really be limitless.

Everyone is the second son of the first line, and basically has no share in the title. We still have to look at it in the future, and we can't let the way go.

Thinking that Liu Yu's words were true, his parents must have been scared to death, and they all left and rushed home.

Under the Zhengyang Gate, only Liu Yu and Tian Ping were left.

Liu Yu held up the purse bestowed by the emperor, and asked, "Can I carry this thing on weekdays?"

Tian Ping smiled and asked, "Where did you take it?"

"Hang it on your waist."

"Oh, hang it on your waist? Then will you urinate in the future? When you urinate, the imperial purse is next to your thing. The purse shakes with the words, and the scorpion flies with the smell? After you urinate, you wash your hands Is it? If you haven’t cleaned your hands, just touch Yuci’s purse? Or, when you pee, hold the purse on top of your head with your left hand and hold it with your right? If you can really do this, you can carry it on weekdays.”

After imagining all kinds of weird scenes, Liu Yu's face twitched, and he said with a smile, "Forget it."

As he was speaking, Tian Ping's eyes flicked to the distance. The boy army officer who chased them to Changping to arrest them, that pockmarked face named Jiaolao Butu, was in the distance.

Liu Yu pulled Tian Ping and said, "Don't cause trouble. That's the Boyer Army, and he still has the honor of Captain Qingche. Besides, what you said is really too much."

Tian Ping smiled and said: "Where do I want to cause trouble? It's just a little unexpected. The naturalized Saurons actually know about the past? They have read a lot of books. Well, I'll go back first. I didn't enjoy myself today. In a few days, let's go outside the city to have a good time with the hot air balloons, but today's poems are not popular, and there are no good works, after all, it's not interesting."

Before leaving, he cupped his hands at Liu Yu and said, "For today's matter, follow the rules and you will be rewarded. Not only did you fly to the sky, but you also got the imperial gift, thank you."

A thank you made Liu Yu extremely embarrassed.

Thinking that he used his sinister intentions to arrest people as a backstop, and how much morality he still had in his heart finally made him blush, and he said slowly: "My brother, you don't need to be like this."
