The next morning!
Qian Gui had already prepared three empty ox carts and called for his servants.
Tian Qiong got up and enjoyed his breakfast. He waved his hand and rode his horse, leading three ox-carts toward the treasury of Chang 'an.
There were many people on the street leading to the imperial court's treasury in Chang 'an City today!
Because the imperial court had started to cash in the money they had borrowed from the people of Chang 'an, many of the people who had borrowed money from the imperial court had come here early in the morning.
At the same time, there were many people watching, so it was extremely lively!
"Sigh, I really regret it. If I had known earlier, I would have lent some money to the Imperial Court and earned some money!”
"Me too. Sigh, who would have thought that the Imperial Court would win so smoothly!”
"Hahaha, when I asked you to pay, you didn't. Now you regret it!”
"I heard that the manager of the Zhou Clan Restaurant lent a thousand gold to the Imperial Court. This time, he earned three hundred gold for nothing!”
"That's right. Originally, it was a year's interest. Now that the war has ended in three months, the interest is still calculated in a year. This time, they have made a huge profit!”
"I regret it! Three months to get a year's worth of interest, it was really enviable!”
"Hey, I heard that several big merchants in Chang 'an City are regretting that they didn't take this opportunity to make a fortune!”
"In the beginning, the rebel army was extremely powerful. I didn't expect it to be just a silver spear and wax head. It looks good but is useless!”
"Although I didn't lend money to the Imperial Court, it's fortunate that the Imperial Court suppressed the rebellion. Otherwise, if the world were to fall into chaos, we wouldn't even be able to live a peaceful life!”
……
Many people on the streets were discussing animatedly.
Soon, many people saw Tian Meng and the others leading three ox-carts towards the treasury.
"Hiss, who is this? Pulling three ox-carts to load the money?"
"No way, how much money did you borrow to buy three ox-carts?”
"Yi, I think I've seen this person before. Three months ago, this person pulled a carriage of gold and lent it to the Imperial Court!”
"What? Are you kidding me?"
"How could I be joking? That's right, it's this person. He must have gone to exchange money!”
"Tsk tsk, this, how much money does he want to exchange for this!”
"Let's go and take a look!"
……
Many people who recognized Tian Meng excitedly followed behind him, heading toward the treasury.
There was no other way. The last time Tian He lent money to the Imperial Court, too many people had seen it. In fact, many people had lent money to the Imperial Court because of Tian He's influence.
Very quickly!
With many commoners following him, Tian He arrived in front of the bustling treasury.
There were two rows of fully armed soldiers standing in front of the treasury, as well as many officials.
One by one, the commoners were holding their certificates and looking for officials to cash them out.
The imperial court official responsible for this was still Liang Feng.
At this moment, Liang Feng was exhorting the officials not to make any mistakes when he suddenly heard a commotion coming from ahead.
He frowned and looked over. He immediately saw Tian Xiong riding a horse and leading three ox-carts in front.
Liang Feng's eyes widened as he looked at Tian Meng!
How could he not know Tian Meng?
It wasn't just because the other party had loaned 10,000 gold to the Imperial Court, which had left a deep impression on him.
What shocked him even more was that last night, he was drinking with a good general who had returned from his division. He heard the other party talk about the war and also heard the other party mention the general who had contributed this time.
His good friend emphasized Tian Meng's battle achievements and was envious of him. He even said that Tian Meng's battle achievements were probably the highest among the generals!
This made him extremely shocked at that time. Langguan had just entered the army and had already made such a great contribution. Could it be that his contribution was the highest among the generals?
This was incredible!
There was no doubt that the other party would receive a great reward and his status would rise greatly!
"General Tian!"
As he thought about it, Liang Feng immediately walked over.
At this moment, Tian Meng had just arrived. He saw that the line of people who were lining up to cash in was about to line up to cash in as well. Then, he saw Liang Feng revealing a bright smile and welcoming him.
"Lord Liang!"
Tian Meng cupped his hands and said.
"General Tian, you're here to fulfill your promise, right?”
Tian Meng nodded, then looked at the long line and said with a smile,
"It seems that they came at a bad time. There are so many people!”
"General Tian fought to the death for the Imperial Court and the Great Han. How can we let General Tian wait?”Liang Feng smiled respectfully and continued,
"General Tian, come with me. I will personally fulfill your wish!”
Tian Meng couldn't wait to save himself the trouble of waiting in line.
"Thank you!"
Tian Meng said with a smile as he handed the certificate to Liang Feng.
Liang Feng received it and looked at the certificate of lending ten thousand gold to the Imperial Court. He sighed in his heart.
Ten thousand gold! In just three short months, he had earned 3,000 Gold!
Tsk tsk!
Liang Feng was extremely envious just thinking about it. 3,000 gold was a huge sum of money!
Now, one tael of gold was equivalent to nearly 700 wen (in the Han Dynasty, the exchange ratio of gold to copper coins was small). Three thousand taels of gold was equivalent to more than two million copper coins!
A huge sum of money!
The grain price in Chang 'an was only 100 copper coins per stone (about 27 catties) of grain. One stone of grain was enough for a family of three to eat for almost half a month.
How much food would he need to buy with two million yuan?
"Go, immediately take out thirteen thousand gold taels from the treasury!”
Liang Feng sighed and immediately said to the official beside him.
When the officials heard this, they immediately entered the treasury and carried out boxes of gold, opening them one by one.
Instantly, the place was filled with golden light!
"General Tian, according to the interest of the Imperial Court, you should be given 13,000 gold. All of it is here.”
Liang Feng said to Tian Meng.
"There's no need to do anything unnecessary. Thank you, Lord Liang!”
The gold officials all lightly counted it, so there was no need for him to count it again.
Looking at the golden light, Tian Meng was also very happy. Three thousand gold!
He had earned 3,000 Gold in the past three months. Although he had to pay off the interest of some merchants, he could at least earn 2,000 Gold!
Where could he earn such a huge sum of money!
"Uncle Qian, move the gold into the carriage!"
With a wave of his hand, Uncle Qian and the others excitedly began to move the gold onto the ox cart.
Very soon, Tian Meng bade farewell to Liang Feng and left.
When Tian Meng left with the three carriages filled with gold, the surrounding crowd couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.
The discussion continued for a long time after Tian Qiong left.
After exchanging the gold, Tian Qiong immediately asked Uncle Qian to bring back the deed to the house. Then, he returned all the money to the merchant. Finally, he took back all the jewelry of his sister, Wang Qiong, and bought some exquisite jewelry, preparing to give them to her.
