"Zhong Shihu has met Her Royal Highness the Princess." Ju Hu bowed and saluted, not as a minister, but as a minister of a prince meeting the emperor. Upon hearing this, Zhao Qi and others' expressions changed. This is a standard ancient ritual. When the princes see the emperor, they all call themselves a lord or a minister. When the ministers of the princes see the emperor, they call themselves a certain scholar. When a certain person is worthy of the title of the prince's country, the scholar refers to the status. Finally, add Just give a name. To put it simply, it means a minister who is not a minister of the emperor, but a minister of the emperor, which is the so-called accompanying minister. It was obvious that Juhu was sent by Yuan Tan not just to make a donation, but also to register and request the eldest princess to give the Zhong family a golden seal to recognize the Zhong family lineage. Orthodoxy is the so-called splitting the soil and dividing the grass, plus the gift of cartilage. Only after completing these things can the identity of the old Yuan family be truly changed and become a prince of the Zhong family. Otherwise, no matter how good they are, it will be ineffective. This is also the reason why the old Yuan family sent a heavyweight to suppress the situation this time. After all, this matter is related to the next series of arrangements for the old Yuan family. Without a hardcore or a backbone, Yuan Tan will not Somewhat apprehensive. The population problem can be solved gradually, the enemies can be eliminated gradually, and the city can be built gradually, but if it cannot be canonized by the Han Dynasty, it will always be unfair. Although it seems a little eager to do so at this time, if it is delayed any longer, even the old Yuan family is a little worried about a recurrence. Handling this matter as quickly as possible will not only reassure the Yuan family, but also put everyone else at ease. Sir, all the families who are away from home can feel at ease. "Zhong Shihu?" Liu Tongxu was knocking on a few cases. She was a little unsure whether she should be canonized at this time. Although the Yuan family had been communicating with each other since last year, and whether it was Liu Bei, Chen Xi, or the ministers The ministers basically agreed to the matter, but they did not finalize the time. "Here!" Ju Hu said calmly. Liu Tong hesitated, which means that there is an 80% chance that this matter will be passed. It is obvious that the ministers must have considered this issue, but they have not finalized the time, but they have already entered. The process is fine, but what the Yuan family is most worried about is that this matter drags on until it ends, which would be terrible. "The wind is strong from the west, the snow is capped, and there is no white grass yet. Everything will be ready for the autumn visit." Liu Tong calmly avoided the big pit and did not directly accept the plea from Yuan behind Juhu, but in a big way To a certain extent, it shows its recognition of Zhong's national title. What's more important is that what Liu Tong said is very reasonable. I want to split the soil for you and give you the ancestral temple meat. It's winter now. Can you think about the time? There is no Imperata at all now, and the ancestral temple sacrifice has passed. , the time is not right, you wait, everything will be ready by the time of the autumn pilgrimage in September. So there is no need to talk about the gold seal for documents. At this time, it is unfair to give you a name. There is no white grass, and documents with gold seals will not be recognized. It is only because you came at the wrong time. Juhu looked calm when he heard this, without the slightest dissatisfaction. He was also skeptical about whether he could pass Juhu in one go. If he could get approval and finalize the autumn pilgrimage, it was already within the acceptable range. There was no need for the ministers to say anything. No faith. "This guy seems to be so unfazed." Chen Xi sent a message to Jia Xu and said, "Juhu has come to handle such a big thing. After being rejected, his eyes didn't even move. This is very scary, which shows his psychology." Quality. "That's Ju Hu's son. If he hadn't been tricked by a group of us, who knows what would have happened." Jia Xu glanced at Ju Hu and said calmly, "And in my opinion, this guy is far away from me." His father is still quite far away. If it is Ju Gong who comes today, he will have a complete plan for this matter. "You are still young," Liu Ye said to the two of them in a gloomy voice. While Chen Xi and Jia Xu were communicating in private, several strong men came in carrying two large boxes, and then Juhu opened them. One box of gold beads and one box of rare pearls and jade. It was obvious that the old Yuan family had now figured out Liu Tong's character is no longer empty. If you like glittering gold and shiny things, then I will sort them out for you. There are no other mines in Sizhao City, but there are many gold mines everywhere. Compared with Chen Xi's money that can be exchanged for supplies, the old Yuan family has now faced the problem that money is just money and cannot be exchanged for supplies. It's simple. To put it simply, there is too much gold and silver mined, but the industrial output is limited, so that although there is enough money, it cannot be exchanged for materials. So much so that the old Yuan family¡¯s money has become bricks piled in the cellar, which looks bright but is actually of no use. The gold bricks gathered in the money cellar under Sizhao City are probably worth tens of billions of dollars. The problem is that the materials produced by the old Yuan family last year were only worth three billion dollars. This was the result of Chen Xi's considerable support. Without Chen Xi's Support, I¡¯m afraid it will be even worse? This is also the reason why the old Yuan family has been particularly generous since last year. Money that cannot be exchanged for supplies is not money at all. Even if precious metals retain their value, they cannot be exchanged for weapons and equipment to arm the military and civilians. These dug-out things are equivalent to giving Prepared by others. After discovering this, Xun Chen could only force money to clear the way, and tried every means to convert the money into materials and population, and then convert the materials and population into combat power. However, after a year of transformation, it was very embarrassing that the gold and silver that the Yuan family collected from the Slavs last year had not been spent. This is why the old Yuan family has become particularly tacky this year. New Year gifts are just packages. of gold bricks. The gleaming golden ministers were a little flustered. Although the old Yuan family's methods were particularly tacky, they were indeed full of the charm of money. Just like Liu Tong's eyes were already shining like crescents now, talking about gold and silver. This kind of gift is tacky, mainly because it is not in place. Like the old Yuan family, even Liu Tong clearly felt the charm of it. "In addition, my lord has discovered a gemstone vein in the northern pole. He dares not to be more beautiful than before. He is willing to offer this gemstone vein to His Highness, and please send someone to receive it." Juhu told the story very calmly. There was no intention of feeling distressed at all. It was still distressing at first, but when it was later discovered that they could not produce enough supplies to purchase the gold and silver, Juhu calmed down. "Hiss!" Many ministers took a breath of cold air. The Yuan family's previous gifts were already luxurious enough. Although they looked vulgar, they were full of aura. However, they didn't expect that these were just appetizers. There was actually something behind them. There is also a vein of gemstones, which is scary. Gemstones were not popular in the Central Plains in the past, but since Rome brought gems that were cut and sparkling, many women have been captured by them. There is no way, this kind of shining thing is too attractive to women, and women He also relied on conquering men to conquer the world, and his spending power was extremely terrifying. Nowadays, there are almost no ministers in the Han Dynasty who have not been slaughtered by gems. Of course, you know what the hell the price of gems is, so you can also feel how heroic it is to give away a vein of gemstones. "By the way, the old Yuan family still has gemstone veins?" Jia Xu asked with twitching corners of his mouth. He was killed by Concubine Tang many times, and now he has a clear understanding of gemstones. "Yes." Chen Xi nodded. Chen Xi still knows this. After all, there are two super mines on the Russian territory. One is the diamond mine that Chen Xi sent Zhao Yun to work on. Relying on mathematical calculations and cutting, state-owned gem processing is as easy to make money as printing money, and a lot of them are recycled. People's fat and people's ointment. However, diamonds are among many things in the world. They are essentially worthless. What is valuable is cutting and mathematical formulas. Therefore, this diamond mine in Siberia actually mainly relies on cutting technology and certificates, plus mathematical formulas and marketing to make money. As for the other one, it is a real gem mine. In the Arkhangelsk region in later generations, this place is close to the North Pole and produces gems and diamonds. The output is very large. In fact, apart from these two very large ones, the old Yuan family produces emeralds in the area they occupy, and there are actually some other mines nearby. However, Chen Xi is not sure which vein the Yuan family intends to use to bribe Liu Tong. "This is a bit too much. Why do I feel that Old Yuan's family produces everything?" Jia Xu asked with a raised eyebrow. "That place itself is the land of Wang Xing." Chen Xi replied casually. Jia Xu and Liu Ye both raised their eyebrows when they heard this, is it the land of Wang Xing? Liu Tong naturally wouldn't think about this. She was really stunned. What is atmosphere? This is atmosphere. Just send a gem vein and accept it. Of course you have to accept it. Anyway, you don't have to return the gift yourself. "My lord does not dare to touch it without permission. I heard that His Highness likes this thing and is willing to dedicate it to His Highness. I also ask His Highness to send people to register and make a register." Juhu looked at the restrained ministers and felt extremely calm. If these people were not present, they would definitely be figured out later, but as long as they were restrained, they would definitely not be able to figure out what the Yuan family wanted to do. "Where is the mineral vein?" Liu Tong asked curiously. "It's under the Ural Mountains northwest of Sizhao City." Juhu said calmly. It was a very high-quality gemstone vein. If you dare to offer it to Liu Tong, it is definitely not a parallel import. "This distance is a bit far." Liu Tong sighed. "Your Highness, even if you send someone here, our lord will take care of the arrangements and transport the gems on time every year." Ju Hu lowered his eyebrows and said obediently, this matter is done! "Do you understand what the Yuan family does?" Liu Ye asked Chen Xi. "You can still stop this kind of operation?" Chen Xi said with a smile, "Let them go. The eldest princess is mainly tempted, and we don't need to stop it." "You are still too young, the one in front is probablyXu Ziyuan taught me, but the last sentence was a failure. "Jia Xu shook his head and said, there was nothing wrong with Ju Hu's words originally. All the ministers and officials were suppressed by Yuan's generous words. What a pity!
