Chapter Thirty-Seven: Five Hundred Coins
Since the provocation of the two dandy princes in the Prince's Palace was suppressed with thunderous means, the lives of the three brothers Yuwen and Chenglong have indeed returned to peace.
However, the dandies in their class also looked at the three of them in a somewhat strange way.
Worship, awe, and a bit of sympathy and alienation.
The same thing is that no matter what kind of emotions they have, almost no one dares to take the initiative to make friends with the three Yuwen brothers.
This is also human nature. Although the power of the Yuwen Mansion is not small, and the three brothers of the Yuwen family are also strong enough, the other party is the son of the prince after all, and he himself has the title of prince.
Having offended such a force, the prospects of the Yuwen family were really hard to be optimistic about, so it was understandable that no one would take the initiative to get close to them.
In Taiyue College, although there are several other small groups and gangs that appear to be more powerful, for unknown reasons, these small and large gangs have not taken any action for the time being.
However, more than half a month later, Wu Tianxi, who was suspected of having his bones broken by Yu Wen Chengdu, returned to the Taiyuan Academy alive and well.
And the first thing this guy did after returning to Taixue was to find Yuwen Chengdu's head again.
"Yuwen Chengdu? What a good boy, he is actually better than Wu Tianxi! I admire him! I admire him!" When we met again, Wu Tianxi said in a familiar voice.
As he said this, Wu Tianxi extended a palm the size of a cattail leaf fan to Yuwen Chengdu's shoulder, which seemed to be a pat on the shoulder and a brother-in-law.
Unable to figure out Wu Tianxi's purpose, Yuwen Chengdu subconsciously turned his head and stepped away from Wu Tianxi's slap. He frowned and said, "If you have something to say, tell me something!"
"Uh, um, hehe!" Realizing that he seemed to be overly enthusiastic, Wu Tianxi retracted his slap, scratched his head awkwardly, and grinned, "Well, my elder brother said, tomorrow night, at three o'clock, Shen Shi,
Yuebin Tower, see you there or not!”
"Also, my eldest brother said, please be sure to show your respect to your brother!"
"Oh, I understand! I will tell my elder brother!" Yuwen Chengdu replied calmly.
"Okay! I'm leaving first! See you in the evening! Hehe! Then we'll get drunk and then rest!" As he said that, Wu Tianxi stuck out his tongue and licked his lips.
Obviously, even a dandy like Wu Tianxi still yearns for such things as being able to go to Yuebin Tower for corruption.
Ignoring Wu Tianxi's foodie expression, Yuwen Chengdu turned around and left.
"This guy has more personality than I do! Not bad! He suits my taste very well, Lao Wu!" Looking at Yu Wen Chengdu's back, Wu Tianxi muttered in a low voice, then turned and left.
When Yuwen Chengdu and his third brother Yuwen Chengxiang came to Yiziyuan, Yuwen Chenglong was worried about one thing.
Because, just today, the two dandies, Yang Ke, the king of Xiangcheng, and Yang Jun, the king of Ancheng, finally handed over the first month's protection fee to Yuwen Chenglong.
As for the amount of protection fee, it is very even, each of these two princes is two hundred and fifty!
According to Anseong King Yang Jun, taking into account the pocket money he got from his grandparents, parents and grandfather, plus collecting all the pocket money from his younger brothers, he has about three hundred coins a month.
about.
Yang Ke, the king of Xiangcheng, is probably similar to this.
And Yuwen Chenglong's original intention was to collect a protection fee of 300 tons per month from each person.
However, the two young princes refused to comply and bargained for a long time, and finally settled on two hundred and fifty per month for the two of them.
The five-baht coins cast by Yang Jian, Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty, cost one thousand pieces each, weighing no more than four pounds and two taels.
The total protection fees for these two young princes totaled 500 coins, which amounted to more than 2,000 kilograms.
In the Sui Dynasty, the Jin was divided into different sizes. The big Jin was 661 grams per Jin, and the small Jin was 220 grams per Jin...
However, during the reign of Emperor Wen, the amount of coins used to mint was a full amount of large kilograms, that is, 661 grams.
Therefore, these five hundred coins actually weigh more than one thousand three hundred kilograms.
When Yang Ke, the king of Xiangcheng, and Yang Jun, the king of Ancheng, commanded more than a dozen of their men to pant and move more than a thousand kilograms of copper plates in front of Yuwen Chenglong, Yuwen Chenglong looked at the small mountain of copper coins in front of him and was a little nervous.
Frowning, "Trouble!"
On the other side, Yang Ke and Yang Jun, two dandies, felt distressed and gloated about his misfortune.
Needless to say, I feel distressed.
As for gloating over misfortune, the two of them were thinking like this, "You idiot, I guess you can't even carry two taels of cotton. What will you do now? Although I can't defeat you in a fight, I, the king, will pile up my money."
Kill you!"
However, although these two princes took pleasure in their misfortune, they were not the kind of people who were hopelessly stupid.
Although they wanted to see Yuwen Chenglong's jokes very much, neither of them dared to stay here for a while. Instead, they ordered the followers to throw down the money, turn around and run away quickly, for fear that they would be beaten by Yuwen Chenglong if they ran too slowly.
Brutal elements captured the young man.
"It's only five hundred tons of money, that's a lot! It can probably be loaded into two carts! If you want to buy something worth thousands or even thousands of tons, you still have to line up a line of carriages to load the money!"
"It's better to live in an evil capitalist society, where you can swipe your credit card for anything!"
"Do you want me to set up a whole bank? How about a general withdrawal and deposit service?"
"No! This seems to be a bit technically difficult! But it's okay! It's amazing to get a money order and a bank check, so you can give it a try!"
"We can let grandpa, dad, second uncle, and third uncle all get involved in this matter, so that we can have a backer on the surface and give them some oil and water, so that they don't have to think about those crooked ways all day long!
"
"It's a pity that I, the young master, need a confidant to be the host! That girl Wanwan is too young and uncertain! I'm afraid she won't be qualified for this matter. It would be great if that girl Qing'er is here! Uh-huh
, after a while, when things in the south are on the right track, we will recruit that girl back first, and as for Jiangnan, let that girl Feixuan work hard first!"
"The most important thing is how to cultivate a group of truly trustworthy direct descendants! This is a problem! You need to plan carefully!"
Just when Yuwen Chenglong's mind was wandering, Yuwen Chengdu and Yuwen Chengxiang came to Yiziyuan with their chests high and their bellies folded.
"Brother!" Before anyone could enter the hospital, Yuwen Chengdu's irritating voice came in first across a distance of more than a hundred feet.
Looking at the two figures still more than a hundred feet away, Yuwen Chenglong came back to his senses and smiled slightly, secretly saying, "I was worried about the lack of coolies, but I didn't expect that these two guys came to my door!"
It wasn't until the two of them came closer that Yuwen Chenglong smiled and said, "Second brother, third brother, you are here! Just come here to move the money!"
