With the completion of "New Tokyo" and "Second New Tokyo", the issue of how to collect debts has been put on the agenda.
Well, although the cost of these two legendary projects is actually not high - the "New Tokyo" in the sky uses the remaining equipment from Nobita Nobita's "Cloud Country", and the total cost is only 30,000 yen; As for the underground "Second New Tokyo", it is buried in the [explosive basement] ], lightly press the detonator, and then use a sprayer to spray a layer of special luminous moss on the top of the cave. It only took less than half an hour from the start to the completion... but it still didn't stop Duo, who was now crazy about poverty. Laa Meng offered a sky-high price of 3 billion yen, and Qinzong Emperor Zhao Huan also nodded in approval.
Alas, this is the difference in technology and productivity levels over a thousand years apart!
The biggest question at the moment is how to cash out the astronomical 3 billion yen project funds?
——Obviously, the Song Dynasty and Jin Dynasty have been fighting fiercely for more than a year. The Song Dynasty has suffered successive defeats and major defeats. Its military expenditures are unprecedentedly huge. Coupled with the corrupt officials, the national treasury has long been emptied. Therefore, Emperor Qinzong Zhao Huan really could not afford too many copper coins or gold, silver and silk to pay the bill.
But the emperor didn't just eat the king's meal in vain and let the immortals do the work for free - didn't Zhenren Guo say before that as long as it was valuable goods, he was willing to accept any precious stones, jade, high-quality flowers and trees. On the contrary, they don't seem to have much regard for common objects such as copper coins and silver ingots (mainly because they have no antique properties and cannot be sold for a high price). Although the imperial court does not have much money at the moment, there are quite a lot of miscellaneous gadgets in my palace, which seem to be quite valuable, but unfortunately it is not easy to cash them in... Now I ask the Protector of the Country to use them all to pay off the debt. alright!
——For more than 160 years since the founding of the Song Dynasty, tributes sent by foreign envoys, local prefectures and counties, and internal Tibetan tribes have continued to flow in every year. Most of the so-called tributes have no practical use, and due to the etiquette system, it is difficult to deal with them casually without the emperor's words. Therefore, these messy things have accumulated in the palace over time, piling up like a mountain, and now it is full. A whole row of warehouses. It’s a one-time clearance right now!
Well, after deducting the candied fruits with green hair, the dried flowers with bugs, the dried mushrooms mixed with mouse droppings, the yellow and moldy rice paper, and the hair shafts that have been piled up for countless years, the hair shafts are as hard as mahogany. Can fight The Jinhua ham that was ground into a statue of Guanyin sitting on a lotus and placed in the shrine for worship... After a series of disgusting weird things, among the remaining tributes, there were still a lot of valuable things.
Moreover, some emperors of the past dynasties worshiped Buddhism and some practiced Taoism. According to their different hobbies, they collected many strange things such as the Happy Buddha, copper clepsydras, coins from the Western Regions, ancient swords and famous knives, and hydraulic and astronomical instruments. Because the interests of emperors were changeable, and the hobbies of successive emperors were also different, these things were collected into the palace and played with for a period of time before being thrown into a corner to collect dust. However, for the sake of the Tian family's dignity, those royal items cannot be thrown away casually, so they had to find a warehouse to pile them up... Over the years, a considerable amount has been accumulated.
At this moment, Emperor Qinzong Zhao Huan simply ordered the eunuchs to open all the warehouses and let Doraemon, Wang Qiu and others carry them.
——Looking at these desolate warehouses that have not been taken care of for an unknown period of time, the courtyards that have long been overgrown with weeds and infested with mice, and the rows of dusty boxes, baskets, baskets and wooden frames... Wang Qiu was in a trance. I felt like I was riding a tricycle all over the street to collect junk.
Of course, even the "rags" of the royal family are definitely extraordinary compared to ordinary people's homes.
"...a box of pure natural dragon birth incense, priced at 6 million yen; two Damascus knives, priced at 1 million yen; a Malaysian snake-shaped sword, priced at 400,000 yen; eight ivory tusks, priced at 6 million yen Japanese yen; a box of Burmese gems, priced at 100 million yen; ten bundles of Liaodong mink skins, priced at 4 million yen Yuan; ten sets of black-glazed Tianmu oil-drop bamboo hats and tea sets from the imperial kiln, priced at 80,000 yen...a bag of saffron from the Western Regions, priced at 200,000 yen; eighty stone aged pepper, priced at only 30,000 yen... ? Hey, the discount level of this [automatic pawn machine] is really bad!
Twenty hollow bronze alchemy furnaces, priced at 5 million yen; three boxes of Tubo yak horns and yak hides, which had faded and lost hair due to insect infestation and rat bites, were priced at 100,000 yen; ten boxes of Dragon and Phoenix Group Tea, priced at 300,000 yen Japanese yen; six buffalo horns, falsely called rhinoceros horns, cost 3,000 yen... Wow, it turns out that there were already such fake and shoddy products in the Song Dynasty! And this ‘Acacia chair’ made of Huanghuali is basically a torture bed! But it was so beautifully made, even the handcuffs and shackles were gold-plated, and there was a row of wooden awls and leather whips hanging on them... Could it be that there were S&M lovers in the Song Dynasty as well? ”
Standing in the courtyard that was as messy as a garbage dump, Wang Qiu muttered as he followed the others and threw items into the automatic pawn machine.
However, although there are many tributes accumulated in the palace, the quality is uneven. Although there are some priceless good things among them, there are also many worthless rags and rubbish. The overall value is not as high as originally expected - —Many of the most precious gadgets were taken away by the beloved concubines and eunuchs, leaving behind only inferior gadgets that were despised.
Therefore, after evacuating all the accumulated tributes, Wang Qiu and the others collected the old clothes of the princes, concubines, eunuchs and maids, the emperor's old dragon robes, old curtains from the palace, and precious ingredients from the imperial kitchen... But Even if it scrapes three feet like this, it is still They couldn't raise the astronomical figure of 3 billion yen, so they had to dismantle the dressing tables, ancient bookshelves, fragrant wood screens... and even carved window frames and door leaves that were idle in the cold palace. Finally, they simply demolished the main hall and put the high-end The beams and pillars made of wood were all removed to offset the bill! Such simple and crude handling methods made Wang Qiu and others feel as if they had become a violent demolition team, or like Japanese devils going to the countryside to raid...
Waiting until the Longde Palace where Emperor Huizong of the Song Dynasty was originally placed under house arrest was swept away - the Supreme Emperor was now imprisoned in the underground "Second New Tokyo" to "cultivate immortality", and the original place of house arrest was naturally of no use for the time being - the red sandalwood wood was After all the beams and gilded glazed tiles were removed and stuffed into the [automatic pawn machine], the three billion yuan spent to build the Heavenly Palace was finally collected... huh? You said there is a "Second New Tokyo" that Doraemon created underground using an "Explosive Basement"? Oh, that shoddy thing is basically an add-on and a bonus, so you don’t need to charge extra money...
On the other hand, while Wang Qiu and the others were sweeping away all the palaces and gardens, and then squatting in the dismantled palace, breathing heavily from exhaustion, the Gonggun scholar-bureaucrats in the Great Song Dynasty were preparing to send troops to the Northern Expedition and regain the territory. A big discussion started over the major issue of lost land.
——Ever since the "artifact" refined by Immortal Guo was shot for dozens of miles and burned all the more than 100,000 aggressive Jin troops attacking the city to ashes, the Lord and the scholar-bureaucrats in the court had to cease their activities, and the Lord The scholar-bureaucrats of the Zhan faction were overjoyed and had the absolute upper hand.
Regardless of their views on Guo Jing, the real protector of the country, the current civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty all agree that the main force of the Jin army is now wiped out and they no longer have the strength to suppress all ethnic groups in the territory. As long as the Song Dynasty king's army comes out, it will naturally be able to destroy everything. Recover the mountains and rivers in one fell swoop!
But the problem is that when they actually started planning a counterattack, they discovered an extremely embarrassing and cruel reality: this huge Song Empire actually had no troops available at this time!
