Chapter 413 Scarlet Clothes ([-])
one year later
Spring of the 84th year of Marquis Yan (294)

Jananfeng ordered a one-year tax reduction for the common people, and broke the rules of the Ninth Rank Officials Law to value family background.

This undoubtedly made the nobles in the world very dissatisfied, and the public opinion against the queen's dictatorship gradually increased, and a wave of rebellion was secretly brewing.

It is against this background that many descendants of aristocratic families who feel that they are underappreciated have gathered in Jingu Garden in Shichong, hoping to criticize the despicable and shameless Jananfeng together with other celebrities.

To actually promote a poor family boy, this is simply a tyrant, despicable and shameless to the extreme!
They came to the Golden Valley Garden this time to criticize the darkness of the Jin court, to criticize the waste of talents by the Jin court, leaving so many children from aristocratic families unused, and promoting those poor children, it is simply stupid.

"Wang Dun of Langya attended the meeting and met all the lords."

"Tarzan..."

"Yingchuan..."

"Nanyang..."

"Runan..."

"Wang Miao, the eldest son of Yan Kingdom, attended the meeting and met all the lords."

"Liu Yuan of Bingzhou attended the meeting and met all the gentlemen."

"Taiyuan..."

Celebrities, wealthy families and dignitaries from all over the world greeted each other one after another, even foreign people like Wang Miao and Liu Yuan were invited, mainly because Shi Chong not only wanted to show his wealth in front of other scholars, but also wanted to show his wealth to foreigners like Liu Yuan and Wang Miao. In front of Bangtu Baozi, the pride of the Shi family is displayed.

Although Liu Yuan was already the Xiongnu Chanyu in name, the Huns were torn apart. As the Xiongnu Shanyu, no one could give orders. The other Huns were doing their own thing and ignored him at all.

Compared with his hometown in Hetao, Jingu Garden is undoubtedly a fairyland existence. Liu Yuan knelt on a soft seat in the corner, next to Wang Miao, the heir apparent of Yan Kingdom.

Liu Yuan had traveled among the people in the Central Plains. He knew how miserable the ordinary people of the Jin Dynasty were. Now that he saw the wealthy families of the Jin Dynasty enjoying themselves here, he couldn't help but have a different thought in his heart: the Central Plains The ruling class in China is so self-depraved that it will be over sooner or later. At that time, it is not impossible for me, Liu Yuan, to achieve a career.

In terms of pure luxury, Jingu Garden has surpassed Yan Palace, but the main function of Yan Palace is office, which is not a garden type.

In the garden, the ground is paved with high-quality silk. Every maid is carefully selected. They are all young and beautiful, and all of them are proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. They wear silk and satin, and the branches are covered with shining gems.

All kinds of spices were sprinkled on the silk ground. A small part of these spices were bought from caravans in the Western Regions, and most of them were produced in the plantations of the Spice Islands and sold to the guild by the slave owners of the plantations. Then after the guild processed it, it was sold to the merchants of the Central Plains, and finally sold by the merchants of the Central Plains to the aristocratic families of the Central Plains.

Since the cultivation of a large number of plantations in the "Spice Islands (Indonesian Islands)", Yan Guo has made a lot of money by selling spices, specifically to earn money from the Central Plains family.

One stone of spices is sold at the Spice Islands plantation for 1 yuan/five yi gold (the official currency exchange ratio of Yan State, 20000 yi gold = 200 five baht), and in Qingzhou, the purchase price of Qingzhou merchants is one stone/250 Ten thousand yuan, and then sold to merchants in the Central Plains and resold to aristocratic families at a price of one stone/[-] million yuan.

Due to the growing scale of trade, copper coins with lower value are less and less suitable for commercial transactions, and are only suitable for ordinary people's daily use. Therefore, some big cities in Yan State have begun to use gold as currency.

It's not that anyone wants to use gold, nor is the Wang family asking everyone to use gold. It's that after the city's economy has developed to this scale, everyone has to use gold.

However, the value of gold is too high, and the value of copper coins is too low. If this continues to develop, sooner or later there will be a need for an intermediate currency. If that time comes, silver may be the best choice.

At this time, the banquet began, and a large number of dancers from the Western Regions came forward to dance foreign dances.

"These are dancers I bought from a caravan in the Western Regions. I am ashamed that their dancing skills are not as good as those of our Central Plains dancers." They were many times more expensive than dancers from the Central Plains. Shi Chong gathered so many dancers from the Western Regions at one time, which was a naked display of his family's wealth.

There are not only dancers, but also many female monks in the center of the stage, sitting next to the dancers from the Western Regions, reciting Buddhist scriptures.

In the Great Jin Dynasty when Confucianism gradually declined, metaphysics became the first learning, followed by foreign Buddhism, and then traditional Taoism.

Some big cities began to build Buddhist temples. The dignitaries took their wives and concubines to the Buddhist temple to pray for the Buddha to bless them to continue to maintain their prosperity and wealth from generation to generation.

When the lovely maids brought many roasted suckling pigs, smelling the aroma of roasted suckling pigs, Wang Miao couldn't help asking, "Where did they grow it, it's so mellow."

The other aristocratic children who were tasting the roast suckling pig also looked at Shi Chong curiously.

"It's in Luoyang." Shi Chong said with a smile: "From the day I was born, these suckling pigs only drank the milk of pregnant girls. The pigsty must be filled with spices, and the pigsty must be built with jade. Arrange ten beauties to take care of them, clean the pigpen every hour, and wash the suckling pig's body with high-quality wooden soap every day."

"Mr. Shi is really a great talent!"

"Mr. Shi is really the pillar of the country!"

"Mr. Shi's whimsical idea, I am amazed. After returning to the family, I have to try it."

All the children of the aristocratic family learned from Shi Chong one after another, and they wanted to keep up with Shi Chong's footsteps, so as not to be ridiculed by the children of other aristocratic families that their family was not rich enough.

There are not only milk barbecues, but also wine glasses made of beauties' shoes. Some beautiful maids took off their embroidered shoes in public, then poured wine into their shoes, and finally handed the embroidered shoes full of wine to a The lips of the children of this family, let them drink the wine in their shoes.

The children of the gentry were happy and happy, and they liked these indulgences very much. While eating milky barbecue and drinking wine in embroidered shoes, they would criticize the corruption and darkness of Dajin from time to time. Jananfeng's re-use must have gone through Jananfeng's back door and seduced Jananfeng with masculinity. They talked and laughed at the banquet and arranged various lace stories about Queen Jananfeng and a group of promoted poor children.

However, Wang Miao felt very disgusted by these pleasures. When the petite and pitiful beautiful girl in her early 15s handed over the embroidered shoes filled with wine, he directly pushed the shoes and wine away, and even put the milk on the table. The water barbecue was pushed away, and he lost his appetite in an instant when he was full of appetite.

These aristocratic families in the Central Plains have played too much. They have completely abandoned Confucian moral concepts.

Even Liu Yuan, the Xiongnu Shanyu who was born as a barbarian, was disgusted by these special foods made from indulgence.

Who would have imagined that there would be such a day when the barbarians began to despise the morality of the Central Plains people for being too low.
