One thousand and thirty-two Ma Yuan really misses his majesty
When they learned that the public toilet was a place set up by Emperor Wei to rectify the irregular sanitation situation in the city for residents to go out together, Saqi and Longlihe were not aware of it.
It was further learned that Emperor Wei was concerned about the people of the world and asked people to use human feces and urine to make human feces and urine turn human feces and urine into fertilizers that can increase fertility to the soil, thereby increasing grain production.
While allowing more people to eat, most of the stinky air that permeates the land of China will disappear.
From then on, the people of the Great Wei Empire no longer need to feel like they are slack off at all times.
Residents living in cities with better conditions can eat and live with confidence without incense.
If the question mark on the head can be realized, Saqi and Longlihe's heads are just as exciting.
They thought it was a joke.
When they really saw the existence of public toilets, they saw the people of Wei running into the public toilets and then came out with a relaxed look. Then they went in and took a look and experienced it a little.
Although the smell inside is not very good, but...
There is really no smell outside.
People are very consciously going out of the public toilet to go to the toilet, and then some people will transport all the feces out of the city and deal with them in the prescribed places.
We have a dedicated person to turn these manure and urine into fertilizers that can increase soil fertility and increase grain production.
What is this wonderful change from a dirty and inaccessible existence to an existence that can increase grain production?
According to Ma Yuan's joke, Saqi and Longlihe also knew that there is a serious fertilizer crisis in the Wei Empire now-
Because local officials want to compete for enough fertilizer for their jurisdiction to increase grain production within their jurisdiction.
But no one thinks there is too much fertilizer in their jurisdiction.
In some places, there are few people, few fertilizers, and few grain outputs. In order to obtain higher grain output, they often choose to compete with areas with high fertilizer output for fertilizer.
Of course, officials from areas with high fertilizer production did not agree.
Therefore, this contradiction is common among local officials.
Such news really made them feel that the world is ridiculous. Such things actually happened in a country not very far away from them.
Is a piece of shit a treasure?!
They never thought about it.
Everything they experienced in Chang'an City has made them unbelievable. The huge scale of Luoyang City is even greater than that of Chang'an City.
Whether it is the height, width of the city wall, or the width of the moat, from a distance, you can feel that Luoyang City is like a giant beast entrenched between heaven and earth.
Such a huge scale made Longlihe really believe that the Wei Empire was definitely not a country that could be treated with force. Meeting such a country with force was purely a broken head.
He remembered His Majesty’s instructions and knew what he should do.
So when facing Xinpi's greeting, Long Lihe learned that he was a high-ranking official and was very respectful and respectful to Xinpi.
Xinpi felt very satisfied, so he smiled and greeted Kushan, a business group with hundreds of people, to enter Luoyang City.
Guo Peng instructed that the main personnel of the business group, those officials and businessmen with official identities, should be regarded as Kushan envoys and could enter Lifanyuan to live, while other entourages would be arranged to enter hotels in Luoyang City.
There are not enough official hotels to stay in, and there are some private hotels to stay in.
Anyway, the scale of private hotels in Luoyang is large enough, and many hotels also have catering businesses, which can allow private hotels to make a lot of extra money and increase their income.
The private hotel industry, which has just started, will also begin to take advantage of this east wind to take off in the wind.
In the wind, as long as you are not too stupid or hardworking, you will not be able to fly.
What Guo can provide them with is opportunities, environment, conditions, and whether they can work hard to get rich depends on themselves.
After all, no leader of any country will personally deliver wealth to every citizen.
As for those important members, they were led by Xinpi personally to the Kushan Pavilion of the Lifanyuan Court, allowing them to live in and enjoy the treatment of envoys.
Afterwards, Xinpi arranged accommodation affairs at the Lifan Courtyard, while Ma Yuan went to the palace to pay homage to Guo Peng.
I haven't returned to Luoyang for a long time. After I came back, before I could feel the scenery of Luoyang, Ma Yuan was called to the palace by Guo Peng.
It is said that Guo Peng misses Ma Yuan very much and wants to see him very much.
When Ma Yuan heard this, his heart flew to Guo Peng.
He really missed his Majesty very much.
Ma Yuan quickly arrived at the palace and came to the study of Qinzheng Hall to meet Guo Peng.
"Your Majesty, I am fulfilling my mission!"
When Ma Yuan saw Guo Peng, he immediately knelt down with tears in his eyes and reported to Guo Peng.
Guo Peng quickly stepped forward and helped Ma Yuan up.
"It's good to come back, it's good to come back."
Guo Peng did not immediately ask Ma Yuan what achievements he had achieved, but instead asked him about his well-being, tearful Ma Yuan's words, saying that the person he missed most was Guo along the way.
Mr. Guo smiled.
"You kids in the training camp will talk to make me happy, hahaha, okay, sit down and tell me what I encountered along the way."
Mr. Guo asked Su Yuan to bring drinks for Ma Yuan, and then sat down opposite him to hear about his experiences in the Western Regions and news from the Kushan Kingdom.
"As His Majesty estimates, the Kushan State has many troops. According to Dayuan, the Kushan State has a force of more than 200,000 and a population of millions. It is a big country. There are many people working in farming, and there are also many people engaged in animal husbandry, and there are people doing both aspects.
I haven't seen how strong the Kushan army is, but their coins are very good. I think the craftsmen in this area are very strong. I have obtained a lot of gold, silver and copper coins from Kushan countries, and found that their minting skills are very good."
Ma Yuan showed Guo Peng all the gold, silver and copper coins he obtained from the Kushan Kingdom.
After taking it, Guo Peng took it, took it in his hand and nodded slowly.
"Not only are the coin minting techniques good, but they are also very rich, and they can use gold and silver as circulating currency. The amount of gold and silver that Kushan has must be far more than that of our Wei. It seems that the four hundred years of Silk Road has brought many benefits to Kushan."
Guo Peng played with the Kushan gold coin in his hand, his eyes full of desire.
He lacks gold and silver, really lacks gold and silver.
In ancient China, gold, silver and copper were always lacking metals that could be used as currency, but the economy was strong, and the surrounding vassal states all used Chinese currency, so it often even caused deflation, making it difficult to maintain the amount of copper.
Therefore, it was not until the middle and late Ming Dynasty that it successfully became the silver standard.
If you can get enough gold and silver, Mr. Guo can also get the gold standard or silver standard.
If the gold standard or silver standard can be established, it will inevitably promote economic development and reduce the use of copper coins, and then some copper mines can be squeezed out for use in the field of scientific development.
Economic development and scientific development are always complementary.
Gold and silver.
In addition to local excavations, Mr. Guo remembers that there are many countries around him that are more abundant. There must be many Kushan. The countries in the Western Regions should also have a lot of savings, and then...
It’s probably Japan, the famous Ishimi Yinshan.
Although Mr. Guo didn’t know where Ishimi Yinshan was, it seems that there are a large number of silver and gold mines on the Japanese archipelago.
There are quite a lot of precious metal deposits on the small islands. I don’t know what the principle is. I envious Mr. Guo is a little jealous.
It will definitely be a bit troublesome if you look for it, but if you go and search, you should find a lot of them.
