In the end, Li Yi still left the Eastern Palace!
Then, he moved into the room next to Qin Qiong's house. Looking at the halberd erected in front of Qin Qiong's house, Li Yi's face was filled with shock. This was the highest honor of a martial meritorious service!
As Li Yi did not have any merit points, the mansion had the words " Li Mansion " hung on it. After entering, Li Yi realized that the entire mansion was still rather large, but it was very clean!
"Each family has sent people to help clean up. After that, they will leave behind 30 male servants and 20 female servants. This is the contract for selling yourself.”
Qin Qiong helped Li Yi introduce them. Li Yi did not expect that he would suddenly have more than fifty subordinates!
"These are all for me?"
Li Yi was shocked. To be honest, he had never thought that he would one day become a slave owner. Although he knew that the Tang Dynasty had such a system, one day, he could really control the life and death of a group of people at will. This feeling was especially strange!
"Naturally, you will live in the mortal world in the future. Someone has to take care of you!”
Qin Qiong said with a smile. Then, before Li Yi could say anything, he heard a commotion at the door. Then, he saw a man in his thirties or forties. He hurriedly ran in and bowed to Li Yi,"Greetings, Master. Duke Su is here to visit!”
Before he could finish his sentence, Cheng Yaojin's laughter had already rushed into the manor. Then, he saw groups of people carrying all kinds of things in behind him.
"Duke Su, He Xiantong has moved to a new residence and has come to visit. He has brought three thousand taels of silver, one hundred taels of gold, ten bolts of silk, ten bolts of satin, a hundred feet of silk, three pieces of brocade, a cart of silk…"
Not to mention Li Yi, even Qin Qiong was shocked by Cheng Yaojin's generosity!
Three thousand taels of silver. According to the price of Zhenguan, one tael of silver could be exchanged for a copper coin, which was 1000 wen. The price of rice was 5 wen per bucket, and 10 buckets were 1 stone. In the Tang Dynasty, a stone was about 59 kilograms, and a bucket was about 12 catties of rice. According to the current price of rice, it was 1.5 yuan per catty. The purchasing power of one tael of silver was equivalent to 3500 yuan!
3000 taels was a total of 10 million yuan!
This was too terrifying!
He gave her 10 million just like that!
But this was the purchasing power of the Great Tang. There was still a hundred taels of gold behind it!
This was true gold. Although it was not pure gold, it was a truly valuable item. Although the Great Tang lacked silver, it actually had more silver than brass!
The key was that the silver was large in quantity and was not easy to sell, but the gold that Cheng Yaojin sent was easy to sell!
One hundred taels of gold was equivalent to 42.8 grams in modern times. One hundred taels of gold was equivalent to 4280 grams. It was not pure gold, so the price of gold was relatively low. However, it could still be worth 280 yuan!
In other words, a hundred taels of gold could be exchanged for 1.2 million in the modern world!
The first three thousand taels of silver, the price of one gram of silver was about 3.5 yuan. In other words, three thousand taels of silver could only be exchanged for about 450,000 yuan!
Compared to a hundred taels of gold, it was still far from enough!
As for other items like brocade, Li Yi did not care about them. In ancient times, brocade was handmade, so it represented its value. However, in modern times, these were all operated by machines. If possible, Li Yi could easily rely on cloth to destroy the economy of the Great Tang!
"Thank you, thank you…"
Before Li Yi could finish thanking Cheng Yaojin, who was still laughing, another group of people came from behind!
"Master, Shangdang County Duke has come to congratulate you!”
Shangdang County Duke?
Li Yi was stunned for a moment before he suddenly realized that this was Zhangsun Wuji.
Li Shimin had not ascended the throne yet, so he had not been completely rewarded. Cheng Yaojin was still Duke Su, not Duke Lu. Zhangsun Wuji was still Shangdang County Duke, not Duke Qi!
"Master, Duke Huo has come to congratulate you!”
This was Chai Shao!
"Master, the Duke of E has come to congratulate you!”
Yuchi Jingde, also known as Yuchi Gong, had arrived!
……
Wait, people came in groups. Almost all the people from the Heavenly Policy Prefecture had come. Even some people who were not from the Heavenly Policy Prefecture but were close to Li Shiming had come!
The news in the palace was still very well-informed. People from all walks of life came to give gifts and blocked the road. One could imagine how many people gave gifts and how many gifts they gave!
The fifty male servants and female servants were stunned. They were originally sent to someone else, but their hearts were still beating like drums. They did not know what their new master's temper was like, especially those sent from Qin Qiong's family. They were even more miserable.
One had to know that a dog relied on its power, and so did servants. Many servants even looked down on Li Yi because the plaque at Li Yi's door was only " Li Manor ", which meant that Li Yi did not even have the status of a noble.
But now, not only did the State Dukes come over to offer their gifts, but the gifts they sent were also more expensive than the ones from the previous families. Just the silver alone filled the entire treasury!
"The Prince of Lueyang has arrived…"
While the servants were still in shock, a name was called out. It was a Regional King!
A Regional King! Only the Emperor's brother had the right to be conferred the title of Regional King!
Then…
"The Lord of Guangning County has arrived…"
Another Regional King!
However, what happened next left everyone dumbstruck!
"King Lu has arrived…"
King Lu, Li Shiming's blood brother, Li Yuanchang. Later on, the person who rebelled with Li Chengqian was this fellow. He was a famous scammer among Li Shiming's brothers. Li Chengqian liked boys, and his favorite " Chenxin " was given by him!
"King Zhao has arrived…"
Li Yuanjing, the King of Zhao, had an average relationship with Li Shimin. In the end, in the fourth year of Yonghui, he was sentenced to death for infiltrating Fang Yiai's rebellion…
This was also a scam!
"The Crown Prince has arrived…"
In the end, Li Shimin still came. They had just met a few hours ago, and now he was here again. Li Yi suspected that this guy was here to freeload!
The housewarming celebration was naturally arranged wantonly. Fortunately, there were many people who were quick-witted. The chefs of Qin Qiong and the others came over to help. They even moved quite a number of tables from Qin Qiong's house over. Adding on the gifts from others, it was enough!
The last bottle of Wuliang Ye was naturally drunk by Li Shiming and the others. That night, Li Yi was thoroughly recognized by the highest authority in the Great Tang!
Now, the entire Great Tang knew that Li Shiming had been recognized by the heavens because a little fairy had descended to help him!
Li Yi drank the yellow wine. In the end, he couldn't hold back the crowd. Before he committed a crime, he finally understood!
Li Shimin was using Li Yi to stabilize Chang 'an Fortress!
