The Lunar New Year is almost here on Earth.

Seeing that the time was approaching, Fang Weiyan decided to go home for the New Year first.

I should find a chance to leave home sooner.

After temporarily settling matters in the Jiang Kingdom, Fang Weiyan returned to Earth.

Earth.

The designer they hired had basically designed everything Fang Weiyan Fang Weiyan requirements.

After receiving the design drawings, Fang Weiyan paid all the money and then asked the other party to design the villa.

I plan to have a villa built for him back in our hometown.

This way, my parents can live more comfortably at home.

After finishing up his business, Fang Weiyan bought a train ticket to go home.

With a little money in hand, Fang Weiyan was too lazy to take the high-speed train, and since he had never been on a plane before, he decided to skip it.

Fang Weiyan booked a plane ticket directly.

It took Fang Weiyan an hour to arrive at the airport. After passing through security and waiting for a while, he boarded the plane without incident.

My first time on a plane, after the initial novelty wore off, all that was left was the roar of the engines outside.

After the plane landed, Fang Weiyan rented a car, bought some New Year's goods, and drove home.

Fang Weiyan's return did not cause much of a stir in the village.

Nowadays, cars are quite common in the village, and young people prefer to drive one back home.

Fang Weiyan simply thought it would be more convenient to drive back.

Just return the car when you get back, and then you can go home.

Although it didn't cause much of a stir in the village, Fang Weiyan's parents were extremely happy about Fang Weiyan return.

"You bought a car?"

Upon seeing Fang Weiyan return, Fang Weiyan's mother looked at her son with a hint of doubt.

My son has only been away working for a short time, how come he's already driving back?

"No, it's rented, it's more convenient."

As Fang Weiyan took things out of the car, he casually replied with a reply.

Seeing that no one in the village was looking over, Fang Weiyan took the opportunity to take out the immortal peach he had obtained in the other world.

"Mom, these peaches were a gift from my friend. They're especially sweet. There weren't many to begin with, so you can have one."

Fang Weiyan handed the peach to his mother and then urged her to finish.

Fang's mother paused for a moment, holding the peach, "This peach is really big, and it smells really good?"

She took a gentle sniff and could smell the peach's rich aroma.

Upon hearing this, Fang Weiyan hurriedly urged, "Mom, eat quickly, I don't have many peaches left, it won't be good if my period comes."

As my parents always do, if any relatives come to visit, they'll bring some fruit or similar items home with them.

Other fruits can be given away without consequence, but not peaches.

Fang Weiyan doesn't have many of these precious peaches right now, so he must make sure his mother finishes them quickly.

He also needs to take the peach pit back with him.

Seeing her son urging her so eagerly, Fang's mother hesitated for a moment, but still took a bite.

The next moment, I felt a sweet taste fill my mouth.

Then came a cool sensation that seemed to flow directly into every part of my body.

Fang's mother had never tasted such sweet peaches before, and she found herself eating them without even realizing it.

Seeing this, Fang Weiyan quickly handed another peach to his father and urged him to eat it quickly.

If each person eats one peach, they will likely live longer.

Seeing this, Fang's father also ate it in one gulp.

After the two finished eating the peaches, Fang Weiyan put away the pits.

Then, she carried all the things she had bought into her room.

If I have time later, and see Su Qingyun, I'll share one with her too.

"Mom and Dad, let's renovate the old house sometime."

After Fang Weiyan moved all his belongings home, he said something to his parents.

He plans to renovate the old house into a villa so that his parents can live more comfortably.

Fang Weiyan's parents, after a moment's hesitation, said, "Why do we need to repair it? If we have the money, wouldn't it be better to save it and buy a house in the city?"

"Repairing the old house won't cost much. I've already contacted a renovation company, and they'll come to fix it next spring."

Upon hearing this, Fang Weiyan immediately replied, "I've already paid the deposit."

If I don't say it this way, my parents definitely won't agree.

The two exchanged a puzzled look. "Did you make a lot of money this year?"

Seeing her son come back this time, she felt he had changed quite a bit.

He looks much more handsome than before, and his skin is also much fairer.

He looks much more energetic.

Compared to before, Fang Weiyan is now more and more attractive the more you look at him.

"Yeah, I have a classmate whose family is very wealthy. They've taken good care of me. If I continue working this year, I think I'll be able to afford a house without any problem."

Fang Weiyan lied and kept it from his parents.

He actually still has tens of millions left that he hasn't spent, but right now he's spending money like water.

How much money he makes is entirely up to him.

Both of them seemed quite happy to hear this; if their son could earn so much money, then they wouldn't have to worry about him anymore.

After thinking about it for a moment, Fang's mother still said, "You haven't even earned this money yet, so don't go around saying how much money you'll earn next year. That's not good."

Mr. Fang, who was listening to this, nodded in agreement.

It's really not good to talk nonsense like that.

After all, Fang Weiyan hadn't made any money yet.

Fang Weiyan nodded repeatedly upon hearing this.

In situations like this, simply nodding is enough; there's no need to say anything else.

Thinking of the Fang Weiyan mentioned, the two became curious and couldn't help but ask him more questions.

Fortunately, Fang Weiyan Fang Weiyan did know Su Qingyun, so he answered their questions flawlessly.

After Fang Weiyan's parents finished questioning him, Fang Weiyan made an excuse that he hadn't rested properly and went straight back to his room. He locked the door and returned to the Jiang Kingdom before eating.

Jiang Kingdom.

The coins that were rushed out earlier have already been stored in the warehouse.

The warehouse was piled high with the latest coins.

The coins, ranging from one cent to fifty cents, are all forged from alloy, and each is decorated with a painting of the Son of Heaven Sword, the face of Princess Yunxi, and the city gate of Yanhuai City.

Next, for larger denominations, banknotes were used instead.

It was still printed in a modern factory, with some anti-counterfeiting features added as requested by Fang Weiyan.

Using methods from this other world, it's impossible to pirate.

The industrial level here is simply not high, so the paper produced is still quite rough.

The designs on the banknotes and the paper's manufacturing process are things that people here cannot produce.

Fang Weiyan summoned the Minister of Ministry of Revenue and handed over the first batch of printed money to him.

"This will be the money of the Jiang Kingdom from now on. You need to start collecting silver from various places to exchange it for these coins and distribute them. From now on, only these coins will be used within the Jiang Kingdom. Also, open money shops to allow the people to deposit money and exchange coins."

Fang Weiyan had already instructed Ji Chunzhe on this matter beforehand.

It seems that there shouldn't be any major problems if the other person continues to sit there.

Upon hearing this, Ji Chunzhe immediately nodded, indicating that he understood.

Then, his eyes lit up as he looked at the coins in front of him.

He wasn't coveting the money; it was just that the appearance of the money was something he had never seen before.

Now that I see this money in such a state, I can't help but feel curious.

The coins made of alloy have incredibly lifelike figures and designs, a level of craftsmanship that is impossible to achieve here.

Furthermore, after holding the coin in his hand and weighing it, he couldn't quite figure out how it was made.

Then there were the coins on the side.

"Your Majesty, what should we name this new coin?"

Ji Chunzhe looked away from the coins, then cupped his hands in a respectful gesture to Fang Weiyan and asked.

What's your name...?

Fang Weiyan frowned upon hearing this; indeed, a name still needed to be chosen.

Fang Weiyan was unsure what to call him now.

"What do you think should be a good name?"

Fang Weiyan was also unsure what name to give, so he looked towards Ji Chunzhe.

Upon hearing this, Ji Chunzhe hesitated for a moment before saying, "After His Majesty ascends the throne, he will change the reign title to Opening Peace. How about calling it Kaiping Treasure Currency?"

"Firstly, this action informs the world that the coin was minted by the Emperor; secondly, it ensures its legacy for future generations."

Ji Chunzhe believes that the Emperor still cares a lot about this kind of reputation.

Fang Weiyan simply didn't have any interest in this title or anything like that.

However, since the other party had mentioned the name, Fang Weiyan simply went along with it.

Kaiping Treasure Currency Kaiping Treasure Currency; it just needs a name.

"That's settled then. You'll be in charge of distributing and collecting the money. If I discover anyone embezzling or secretly trying to steal my money, you'll be implicated."

Fang Weiyan waved his hand, then glanced at Ji Chunzhe and gave him a warning.

Upon hearing this, Ji Chunzhe's expression changed drastically, and he immediately knelt down, saying he dared not.

"Alright, you can go now."

After scaring the other party, Fang Weiyan waved his hand, indicating that they could leave.

After the other party left, Fang Weiyan returned to the Imperial Study.

Speaking of which, last time, Lan Mengke was appointed as the inspector, and he killed a lot of officials along the way.

After the other party conducted a purge, Fang Weiyan estimated that starting to reform the currency now shouldn't pose too much of a problem.

Recently, Lan Mengke's pamphlets have been piling up like a mountain.

Fang Weiyan glanced at these items casually and then set them aside.

The main reason was that the other party had submitted too many brochures, and also, based solely on what the other party said, Fang Weiyan couldn't be sure whether they were hiding anything.

However, as long as Cheng Feng's spies don't submit any memorials, Lan Mengke should be fine.

"Wasn't my lord supposed to be away for a while? Why are you back so soon?"

Upon learning of Fang Weiyan's return, Yunxi hurriedly went to the Imperial Study.

Upon seeing Fang Weiyan sitting on the dragon table, his face immediately lit up with joy.

Upon hearing this and seeing that it was Yunxi, Fang Weiyan smiled slightly and said, "I can't let go of things here. Jiang Kingdom has been isolated from the world for a long time, and it won't be long before people from other dynasties come. I'm thinking of making some preparations."

"What if we're caught off guard when those people arrive?"

Fang Weiyan said softly.

If people from other dynasties come, it's hard to say whether they'll be friends or foes.

Always prepare for the worst. Fang Weiyan felt that it would be better to adopt the enemy's plans in some ways, so that things would be easier to deal with when the time came.

However, if the person coming is likely an enemy, then we need to strengthen our own capabilities.

If possible, Fang Weiyan did not want to engage in a major war with other dynasties.

Fang Weiyan hoped that they could trade peacefully and continue to grow stronger.

"Gentleman, you are so formidable; surely the enemy has arrived, and we dare not act rashly."

Yunxi is no longer completely ignorant. After learning a bit about the Human Sovereign, she believes that with Fang Weiyan's abilities, he is definitely capable of becoming one of the top Human Sovereign.

Fang Weiyan smiled slightly upon hearing this. He also had that confidence, but it would take time to develop it.

"By the way, how are Tao Lingluo's peach trees? Did they survive?"

Since asking the other party to plant peach trees, Fang Weiyan has not paid any attention to it and doesn't know how things are going.

"I heard that seedlings have already sprouted. Would you like to go and see them, my lord?"

Let's go take a look together.

Fang Weiyan thought for a moment and decided it was best to go and take a look. The two peach pits he had were just enough to plant for the other person.

Thinking of this, Fang Weiyan immediately got up and walked towards the Imperial Garden.

Yunxi followed Fang Weiyan, and the palace maids beside her quickly followed.

After walking for a while, the two arrived at the Imperial Garden, where Tao Lingluo was still staring intently at the peach sapling in front of her.

If the seedlings survive, one of them could become her body. Because of this, she kept a close eye on the peach sapling in front of her and dared not be careless.

It's basically like they're taking care of you 24/7.

When Fang Weiyan arrived, Tao Lingluo finally raised her head, "Your Majesty."

"The peach pit came back to life?"

Fang Weiyan looked at the two saplings on the ground and couldn't help but say something.

Tao Lingluo nodded quickly upon hearing this, "It has already come back to life. I believe it will grow up soon and produce immortal peaches. Then, Your Majesty can have as many immortal peaches as you desire!"

Tao Lingluo looked proud; after all, she had raised them herself, and no one else could have done that.

Fang Weiyan was extremely satisfied upon hearing this, and then handed two new peach pits to the other person, saying, "Plant these two as well."

"Yes!"

Upon seeing this, Tao Lingluo immediately took the two peach pits and planted them together.

"Where's your peach tree branch? Is it still charging?"

Seeing that the other person had been staying there without any sign of the lightning-struck peach wood, Fang Weiyan couldn't help but ask a question out of curiosity.

"It's still charging, but I'll check back in a few days. Don't worry about it; no one can take it away."

Tao Lingluo was extremely confident about this.

Once the peach tree branch grows large enough to become her trunk, and with the lightning-struck peach wood she possesses, she feels she could fight a hundred of herself!
