The Rise of the European Emperor
Chapter 707: Really give gold coins!
Seeing Marin's puzzled face, Edward said proudly:
"Don't you understand this? You also said that the minister called Shang Yang set up an ordinary piece of wood and said that he would reward hundreds of gold coins, and the people didn't believe it. And I demolished a pillar of the palace, It is much more credible to say that the pillars of the royal palace are carried. After all, it is the things of the palace ... "
Malin suddenly realized that this is the so-called aristocratic effect. In future generations, Huaxia's unscrupulous advertisements were desperately related to the court and nobles. Like that mountain ’s mineral water, it ’s shamelessly known as a nobleman in the water, and it ’s shamelessly made up a foreign princess love princess ... Marin sprayed it directly after seeing it in the previous life-you are a Chinese local enterprise There is an egg relationship with Princess Western, is it really good to make such a blind?
However, there really is no fool letter. Just for the nondescript name "noble in the water", there are a group of two turtle fools willing to buy ...
Therefore, it is really a good idea for Edward to remove a top beam from the royal palace and use it as a letter ... At least, the name of "the top beam of the royal palace" is indeed very bluffing ...
Soon, the soldiers removed a few meters of roof beams from a small warehouse in the royal palace (which can only be such a small house, the main house is a stone fortress). Then, carried by the soldiers, he went to a market near the palace ...
The market in London City is different from the Xianyang City in Qin Dynasty. The ancient Chinese market is a square city established by the government. It is an independent large walled area with an independent courtyard and four gates, like a small city in the city. , So there is the saying of the south gate and the north gate.
The markets in the City of London, some of them like Marlin's rural markets, are set along bustling streets. Moreover, not far from the pier on the Thames. After all, London is an inland river port with well-developed shipping and imports from the terminal. The streets leaning against the South Gate Pier are the easiest to form a bazaar.
So, the soldiers took the top beam from the palace and lifted it to a main road near the Nancheng Gate to form a market. They planned to copy a "standing tree to believe" ...
In order to let the people of the City of London know the news, Edward did not immediately begin to issue rewards under Marin's suggestion, but sent people to hold the copper basin first. (In fact, ancient China used to gong to attract people ’s attention. But ancient Europe Without a gong, Marin had to find a few copper basins, and let the soldiers hold the copper basin in the left and the wooden mallet in the right, knocking while walking, instead of the cause of the gong), knocking while walking, walking in the streets, loud Announced the matter of "limu as a letter", I am afraid that some people do not know ...
"Wow—Wow—" The loud gong ... Oh no, it was the knock of a copper basin, ringing in the streets of London, accompanied by the soldiers shouting:
"Your Majesty Edward has an order to recruit wood-resistant warriors at Seongnam Market. As long as you can carry a wooden roof beam removed from the royal palace from the east side of Seongnam Market Street to the west, 1,000 gold coins will be rewarded! Thousands of dollars! "
"Every strong man can try it, starting at 9 o'clock tomorrow morning! No matter who, the first person who carries a wooden post to a designated place can receive 1,000 gold coins!"
Edward knew the importance of the promulgation of the decree and was recognized by the people, so he was not stingy at all, and directly increased the reward from Shangyang's more than 500 gold coins to 1,000 gold coins to cause the most sensational effect. The first day ended in the propaganda of the soldiers of the Marin Fourth Army.
In fact, many soldiers are very tempted and want to try. However, Edward would not let the soldiers participate. Because, this is for the citizens of London, it is naturally best for London citizens to carry the wood.
Early the next morning, Edward and Marin brought a group of guards to the west end of the city's south market street, waiting for the arrival of the wood-carrying "warrior", and planned to award 1000 gold coins by Edward the prince himself.
But after 9 o'clock, half an hour passed. There were many people watching, but few people dared to step forward to carry the wood.
In fact, this move by Edward seems very strange to the citizens of London. Because, these 1000 gold coins are also too good to earn points. That's 1,000 gold coins, which is equivalent to 250 pounds. In this day and age, an average British person earns only two or three pennies a day. And one pound is equivalent to 240 pence ... almost 250 pounds is equivalent to the ordinary British ’s income in 82 years, which is definitely a huge sum of money ...
Therefore, for such a simple condition and such a generous report, the people did not believe it and hesitated ...
At first glance, Marin couldn't do this, so he drew a glance at Sakala. So, Saqqara quickly arranged for the English soldiers of the 4th Legion to put on the common people's clothes and mix in the crowd as a nursery ...
Finally, under the encouragement of the childcare arranged by Saqqara, a strong and honest London youth stood up:
"I'll try it ..." After that, the young man walked toward the legendary "Royal Palace Pillar" with anxiety, carried it on his shoulder, and walked to the west of the street ...
The citizens of London immediately talked about:
"Yo, isn't that John, the son of the old blacksmith Carl at the east end of the street? This guy is really stupid and daring. He is indeed a blacksmith! How can the aristocrat's money be so good, maybe it is a trap ..." Road.
Seeing that the British aunt wanted to deflect the topic, the nursery arranged by Marin immediately said:
"Whether he is a trap, don't you know when John Blacksmith has finished carrying it?"
"It makes sense!" People echoed and stretched their necks to watch ...
The market street is not long, only about 500 meters long. So, the blacksmith John quickly carried the top beam to Edward.
But when the young blacksmith named John approached, Marin stretched his hand over the handle of the clockwork firearm. Because, he was afraid that the young blacksmith named John would throw heavy beams over and hit people. Although the top beam column is not large, it is also a hundred pounds. If you are hit, you will die if you die ...
Fortunately, the young blacksmith John is not an assassin. After carrying the top beam to the west end of the street, under the guidance of the guard, he placed the top beam at the designated location ...
Then Edward walked past surrounded by the guards and said to John Blacksmith with a smile:
"Boy, good! What's your name?"
"My name is John Cartel ..." the young blacksmith answered honestly.
And Marin on the side directly sprayed:
"John ... cattle?" In English, cattle means cattle. This blacksmith's name is also very interesting, actually called John Bull, so exciting ...
"Yes, this lord, our family is indeed surnamed cattle, and the ancestors were cattle grazing. Later, he followed a baron and was given the surname of the cartel. But that was something that happened hundreds of years ago. Now, the cartel It ’s been a long time since I can only make a living by making iron. "
Marin almost fell by Thunder, but Edward was unaffected:
"Okay, John, you are such a brave boy, dare to try it! You can rest assured that what I have said will definitely count. So, your 1000 gold coins, give it to you now!" Speaking of the back, Edward is already very good Loud, in fact, it was deliberately told to the people on the side.
After that, a bodyguard came with a small treasure chest ...
In front of everyone on the street, Edward opened the little treasure chest, which reflected Jin Cancan's light ...
"Really gold coins! A lot ..." some tall Londoners with long necks exclaimed.
Edward pushed the opened treasure chest in front of John Cartel and said gently:
"You count, see if it's wrong!"
John Cartel ’s brains were so cramped that he actually started to count gold coins on the street, clearly not believing in King Edward ...
In his usual way, Edward was angry. However, he is now to show his closeness and trustworthiness. So, with a smile on his face, Edward watched the honest John Bull counting gold coins ...
Fortunately, although John Bull did not go to elementary school, he had been helping his father's blacksmith shop for a long time. It is inevitable that he often collects money to find money. The first grade math is pretty good. After a while, John Cartel finally raised his head and smiled broadly, saying:
"Your Majesty, it's 1,000 gold coins!" Then, the goods picked up the little treasure chest and turned away ...
Edward and Marrington looked at each other at once-shouldn't they thank the king for receiving the reward of 1,000 gold coins?
In the end, Edward did not care about the rudeness of classmate John Niu because he was here to show generosity and trustworthiness, and he could not care about such trivial matters. Instead, he solemnly announced in public:
"No one should hit the bounty idea of John Cartel, otherwise, he will be severely punished!"
Soon, the young blacksmith John Cartel finished carrying the wood and really received the news of the reward of 1,000 gold coins. Like wings, he quickly spread throughout the city of London and began to spread beyond London. Of course, the English soldiers of the Fourth Army under Marin also contributed.
"What? Really gave the gold coins?"
"Yeah ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ really gave it, I saw it with my own eyes! John Blacksmith counted in front of the new king. The golden light almost blinded me ..."
"Ah! I hate it! I knew I was going, and the plain white made John the stupid big man take advantage of the big ..." Someone howled with a thump in his chest.
"Late, the king is back to the palace!"
"Ah ... 1000 gold coins! I can't earn them in my life!"
"Yeah, it was really given, the king is so generous!"
At this time, a young man by the side suddenly said:
"Yeah, King Edward is such a good king to talk!"
In fact, this is the rhythm released by Marin ... After their efforts, Edward's tall image of "speaking and speaking" was spread ...
