Rise of the Overlord

Chapter 204 Released by Tang Yuan
After the defeat of the two encirclement and suppression fleets of the Noomi Royal Navy, the Noomi Royal Navy immediately withdrew the remaining several encirclement and suppression fleets to various naval ports of the Noomi Empire.

The Naval Department of the Noomi Empire immediately issued an order that the squadrons of the Noomi Royal Navy must strictly guard the various military ports to guard against the surprise attack of the Tang Empire Navy. It was given over to the Breaking Fleet of the Royal Navy of the Datang Empire.

No way, the Noomi Royal Navy, which has finally regained some vitality, lost [-] battleships this time, including five Ocean-class super dreadnought battleships and five Fighter-class battlecruisers. And the two dreadnought battleships, such a big loss has made the Naomi Empire's navy department dare not send out an encirclement and suppression fleet to avoid falling into the trap of the Datang Empire's navy again.

And after the accident in the Noomi Royal Navy, the two countries, Inroba and Sharad, immediately recalled all the warships sent out to encircle and suppress the Datang Empire Navy's broken fleet, making the sea dominance of the two countries' coastal areas, It also basically fell into the hands of the Royal Navy of the Datang Empire.

Although the Royal Navy of the Great Tang Empire did not send a break-through fleet to the waters near Jisk and Orenza, the main force of the Fifth Fleet of the Royal Navy of the Great Tang Empire has been wandering around the coasts of these two countries, which is equivalent to sending The coasts of these two countries are blocked.

Both the Monia Navy and the Rielland Navy suffered heavy losses, and they did not pose any threat to the Royal Navy of the Datang Empire in a short period of time.

In this way, for a long period of time in the future, the command of the sea will be firmly controlled by the Royal Navy of the Tang Empire.

Compared with the overall superiority at sea, on land, the Royal Army of the Great Tang Empire and the army of the Seven Nations Alliance are still in a stalemate.

Currently on land, the Royal Army of the Tang Empire and the Army of the Seven Nations Alliance have three main battlefields. The largest battlefield is in the border area adjacent to the Tang Empire and the Sharad Empire, and the other two are in the Tang Dynasty. The border area adjacent to the Empire and the Orensa Empire, and the border area adjacent to the Tang Empire and the Jisk Empire.

These three battlefields have now evolved into positional warfare. Although the armies of both sides have tried various methods, they still cannot break through the defense line of the other side.

On the morning of June 3014, [-] in the Tang Dynasty, in the Xiande Hall of the Imperial Palace in Chang'an City, Su Yi smiled and said to Wang Chengliang, the commander-in-chief of the Royal Navy of the Tang Empire, and Zhang Qihui, the deputy commander-in-chief: "The Royal Navy fought well this time. At a very small price, the Noomi Navy was once again severely damaged. Not only did it sink two super dreadnought battleships and a battlecruiser of the Noomi Navy, but also captured three super dreadnought battleships and a battlecruiser of the Noomi Navy. The four battlecruisers, I heard that now not only the Noomi Navy, but even the Yingluoba Navy and the Sharad Navy have all retreated to the various military ports, and they dare not engage in any encirclement anymore."

Wang Chengliang said loudly: "Our Royal Navy was able to achieve this great victory thanks to the Nagato-class super dreadnought battleships and Hood-class battlecruisers that His Majesty secretly added to our Royal Navy, which made the Noomi Navy suffer once. Big loss."

Zhang Qihui followed up and said: "Your Majesty, I believe that after this great victory, the three fleets of our Royal Navy will be able to completely block the maritime trade of the three countries of Yingluoba, Noomi, and Sharad, and cut off the relationship between these three countries." An important source of income."

Su Yi heard Zhang Qihui mention the word "caiyuan", then turned to the cabinet premier Xu Haoming and asked: "Haoming, how is the reorganization of the Royal Bank?"

At this time, in the Hall of Virtue, more than a dozen important officials from the military and government of the Tang Empire gathered.

Xu Haoming immediately said: "Your Majesty, the reorganization of the Royal Bank has been completed. At present, the Datang Royal Bank has become the only bank in our Datang Empire, with more than [-] branches, all over the capitals of every province in our Datang Empire. , The county government of each county and the county seat of each county, the total deposit amount is as high as hundreds of billions of silver dollars, and the deficit of the Royal Bank has basically been filled."

The current Datang Royal Bank has annexed the original Ziyue Empire Royal Bank, Tianxing Empire Royal Bank, Liuyun Empire Royal Bank, and private banks opened by some nobles of Tianxing Empire and Liuyun Empire, making the Royal Bank of Datang Empire Banks have truly become behemoths.

Su Yi nodded slightly and then asked again: "Haoming, how is the Royal Bank preparing for the issuance of large-denomination banknotes and new small-denomination banknotes?"

"Your Majesty, according to your instructions, the Royal Bank has hoarded almost 500 tons of gold, and has printed more than [-] billion Tang Yuan banknotes. The largest face value of Tang Yuan is [-] Yuan, and the smallest face value is [-] As long as His Majesty agrees, the Royal Bank can now issue Tang Yuan to the outside world, and the exchange of paper money Tang Yuan and silver Yuan will be maintained at one to one."

Su Yi immediately said: "Seven thousand tons of gold is still not enough. Since the Tang Yuan of our Tang Empire has changed to implement the gold system, it is necessary to let the Royal Bank reserve some gold. The purchase of gold by the Royal Bank is not necessary." Stop, but since so many banknotes have been printed, let Tang Yuan officially come out!"

At this time, the vice premier of the cabinet, Shi Jian, frowned and said, "Your Majesty, the Tang Empire and the Seven-Nation Alliance are still at war. Is it too hasty to issue banknotes at this time? I am worried that the people will not trust banknotes."

Su Yi said with a smile: "People's confidence in large-value banknotes needs to be cultivated slowly. As long as the Royal Bank can guarantee the free exchange between banknotes and silver dollars, and even silver and gold, the people will definitely grow up as time goes by." Accept Tang Yuan."

After a pause, Su Yi continued: "Originally, the Royal Bank had already prepared to issue large-denomination banknotes and new-style small-denomination banknotes. The date of release, now our Royal Navy of the Great Tang Empire has completely controlled the dominance of the sea. On land, our Royal Army of the Great Tang Empire has also blocked the troops of the Seven Kingdoms Alliance from the territory of our Great Tang Empire, so I think The issuance of banknotes does not need to wait any longer."

In fact, the most important reason for Su Yi's eagerness to issue large-denomination banknotes and new small-denomination banknotes is that the current military expenditure of the Tang Empire is too large, not to mention that the internal construction of the Tang Empire has not slowed down because of the war. Footsteps, although Su Yi's family background can last for a long time, but this war with the Seven Kingdoms Alliance does not know when it will end, and the issuance of large-value banknotes and new small-value banknotes will immediately solve the problem of the Tang Empire. The problem of insufficient funds.

He Yunfei, commander-in-chief of the Royal Army of the Great Tang Empire, suddenly said loudly: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, our Royal Army is confident that we can keep the enemy out of the country, and prevent the troops of the Seven Kingdoms Alliance from destroying the economic construction of our Great Tang Empire."

In the end, Su Yi said with a final word: "The matter of issuing Tang Yuan is settled like this. In the future, the military salaries of the army, the salaries of government officials at all levels and employees of all imperial enterprises, and even the purchases of the government and the army will use banknotes. "

On June 3014, [-] in the Tang calendar, the banknotes called Tang Yuan were officially issued to the people of the Tang Empire. It may be that Su Yi's prestige is too high. The banknotes were accepted so quickly that even Su Yi was caught off guard.

In a Savings Office of the Royal Bank of Datang in Changyang County, Pingfu County, Hebei Province, the Empire of the Tang Dynasty, a strong man in his 40s stood in the middle of the business flow, and turned his head to face a person who was not yet fourteen or five years old behind him. The young man said: "Sambo, listen to Uncle. To withdraw money in a while, you don't need silver dollars, just Tang Yuan. Tang Yuan is the same as silver dollars and can be used everywhere. Moreover, Tang Yuan is banknotes, so it is convenient to hold. Wait for you." After withdrawing the money, Uncle will accompany you to the hospital and hand over the money."

The young man showed a look of hesitation, "Uncle Chengcai, the money remitted by the eldest brother and the second brother is my father's life-saving money. Can the hospital accept banknotes?"

The strong man patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, Sanbao! You can use banknotes in restaurants in the county, let alone in the hospital. You must know that the First Royal Hospital of Changyang County where your father lives is the same as the Royal Bank. It's all the property of the emperor and his old man, how could he not accept banknotes!"

At this time, a young man in his 20s behind the boy smiled and said, "Little brother, don't worry! The Tang Yuan issued by our Tang Empire can be exchanged for silver dollars at the Royal Bank at any time, even silver and Gold, absolutely strong!"

After listening to the words of the strong man and the young man, the young man felt that many people in the savings bank were looking at him. The young man couldn't help but blushed a little, and hurriedly said: "I will also take Tang Yuan at that time, and then I will go to the hospital to give it to my father. Pay the hospital bill."

The young man then whispered with a little worry: "I don't know if the 280 Tang yuan remitted by the eldest brother and the second brother this time is enough for my father's hospitalization fee. I heard that the hospitalization fee is very expensive."

The brawny man then said comfortingly: "Sanbao, this time, Uncle Chengcai, you also brought the passbook from your family. There is 300 yuan of silver on it... Now it should be 300 yuan of Tang yuan. If Dabao and Erbao's military pay Not enough, Uncle Chengcai will help your father pay for the hospitalization first."

The young man immediately said gratefully: "Thank you, Uncle Chengcai. If you use Uncle Chengcai to advance the money, I will return it to Uncle Chengcai immediately after my elder brother and second brother's military salary is remitted back."

The brawny man smiled and said: "Your father and I grew up naked together, not to mention your elder brother and second brother both responded to the emperor's call to join the army. I heard that your elder brother and second brother both made meritorious service , but it won glory for our Gejia Village, how can our Gejia Village ignore your father! Don’t forget, you Uncle Chengcai is the company commander of our Gejia village soldier company!"

The young man in line behind the boy suddenly asked: "Little brother, did your two elder brothers join the army?"

The boy said with some pride: "Both my elder brother and second brother joined the Royal Army. Now my elder brother is already a platoon leader, and my second brother is also a squad leader, and my elder brother even won a bronze medal."

As soon as the young man heard this, he immediately said: "The little brother, have you reported to the hospital? According to the military benefits currently promulgated by our Tang Empire, the immediate family members of active servicemen can reduce a lot of medical expenses in the hospital, maybe Your father won't need to spend too much money in hospital this time, he just needs to go through some procedures."

The boy's eyes lit up, "Brother, is there really such a good thing?"

The brawny man also asked anxiously: "Can the hospital really reduce or exempt the medical expenses for military members?"

The young man nodded affirmatively and said: "I work in the Changyang County Finance Bureau and have read the documents in this regard. Anyway, I asked for leave today. After we withdraw the money in a while, I will take you to go through the formalities. It should be faster , In addition, even if you are not a member of the military, you may also apply for poverty medical subsidies. There are many diseases, and the hospital will treat patients from poor families for free."

The boy scratched his head and said, "My family can't be considered poor, so my father didn't allow me to apply for poverty medical subsidies before."

Although the young man said that the hospital can reduce and exempt a lot of expenses for the direct family members of active servicemen, the strong man still took out the 300 yuan in his passbook, and the total was more than 310 yuan with interest. Of course, the strong man took out banknotes.

After the three of them had finished withdrawing the money, the young man took the strong man and the young man to the Changyang County Reserve Armed Forces Department to issue a military affiliation certificate for the young man's father, then went to the Changyang County Health Bureau to get a seal, and finally came to Changyang County. Go to the First Royal Hospital of Changyang County and hand in the proof materials of the military family.

Then the hospital told the young man that his father's hospitalization fee was not required to be paid, because when he was first hospitalized, he had already paid a deposit of ten yuan in Tang Yuan, and since the young man's father was a member of the military, there were no surgical fees, medical expenses, nursing expenses, etc. Accommodation fees and many other expenses can be reduced or exempted. Of course, it is mainly the boy’s father’s illness. It is not a serious illness. It just needs an operation to remove the gallstones in the gallbladder. So when the boy’s father is discharged from the hospital, maybe ten Tang Yuan There is still a lot of deposit left.

The young man bid farewell to the strong man, the boy, and the boy's father and mother who repeatedly thanked him, then hurriedly left the hospital and came to the newly built movie theater in Changyang County.

A young woman in a dress sighed when she saw the young man running towards him profusely, "Hong Bin, why are you here so late? The movie is almost over."

"Yanyan, I'm sorry, after listening to you..."

The young man immediately explained the reason for his late arrival, and then the young woman said with a smile: "It turns out that I went to do good deeds, so Miss Ben will forgive you."

The young man said with some embarrassment: "I'm sorry Yanyan, I finally took a day off to watch a movie with you, but I came too late, and I lost two movie tickets for nothing."

At this time, the young woman stretched out her hand with a smile, revealing two movie tickets, "Hehe, I saw that the movie is about to start, and you haven't come here yet, so I know you must have been delayed by something, so I will Find someone to exchange the movie tickets, these two movie tickets are for the next show!"
