After leaving Xue's old house, Situ Zheng said to Emperor Jin Ming: "Father, come out for a while, should we take a good look around, it just so happened that I didn't bring my brother last time, so let him learn a lot this time."

Speak as you speak, what do you do to involve yourself?The prince glared at Situzheng, and it was clearly written in his eyes, you are obviously playing for yourself, and you still use me as a shield!

Situzheng raised his eyebrows, pulled Jin Mingdi's hand and said: "Father, my brother may be tired, he doesn't want to go with us!" He said in his heart: Little boy, don't think that I don't know that you are the one who messed up Brother Hai Come here to block me!

Emperor Jin Ming pretended to be surprised and asked: "Is Ce'er uncomfortable? If not, someone will send you back." But he said in his heart: "Son, everyone said that if there is something to do, the son will do his best. How can Xiaoqi's anger be suppressed?" Have to find someone to send it out, right?One is better than two!

The prince wanted to cry without tears and said softly: "Back... father, my son is not tired yet, the weather is just right, let's go for a walk, they say that reading thousands of books is not as good as traveling thousands of miles, walking more will make you feel better some insight."

Situ Zheng bared her teeth and said, "Daddy Hui, brother, where does your accent come from? It's so special~"

The prince looked at Situ Zheng, silently took off the purse from his waist and handed it to Situ Zheng, "Xiaoqi, if you see something you want to buy later, go buy it yourself."

Situzheng weighed it up and felt heavy. It was obviously a specially exchanged piece of silver for the convenience of buying small things. Then he said happily: "Come out for a trip to Jinling and learn more from Daddy. I learned everything from Daddy. many!"

This can be regarded as an agreement to reconcile, and he patted his father's dragon fart by the way. It can be seen that, as expected, money can make ghosts go round.

However, the prince touched the remaining dozen silver notes that his father gave him and smiled, so the three of them were quite satisfied with the ending.

It was time to go back, so Situ Zheng naturally had to think about buying things for his mother and the two cubs. Anyway, he was considered a rich man now, so he naturally wanted to buy things he liked.

As for whether it is necessary or not, at most it will be used to reward people at that time, Situ Zheng thought about it richly, and said to the shopkeeper: "The chain of this gold medal is too thin, at least it should be as thick as a little finger."

The shopkeeper looked at the boy, saw that he was not dressed like a nouveau riche, thought for a while and said: "Young master, this one in our store is a long-life lock for children. Generally, children's necks are relatively thin, so it is not suitable to wear them. Thick ones." This is not a dog leash.

Situzheng frowned, then looked at the father and son who were keeping a distance from him over there, thought for a while and said, "Then put all of these together for me."

The shopkeeper is naturally happy with such customers, with a smile on his face like a Maitreya Buddha, and his hands and feet are even more nimble.

The three father and son who went out were about to continue shopping, only to find a long queue at the Yamen not far away, and they were a little curious.

Situzheng asked, "Father, the yamen distributes eggs to the people today? Eggs are so expensive, the county government is so generous!"

In his memory, he had seen those merchants selling health care products give out free firewood eggs before, so there would be such a long queue of old men and old ladies.

However, he had overheard that the Ministry of Internal Affairs quoted his mother's price before saying that the eggs cost one or two taels of silver each.

The shopkeeper who sent them out staggered, and then explained: "Those people are here to handle the separation papers."

The father and son were a little strange when they heard it, and the prince asked, "Your Jinling family also has a fixed day? Why don't you all get together?"

The shopkeeper looked at the three of them and the servants holding the gift boxes behind them, and then looked around, and then said with a smile: "The three should be foreigners who just came here for a visit, right?"

Emperor Jin Ming nodded and said: "That's right. We have settled in the capital all year round. It's not that my son took the college entrance examination this year. We just returned to our ancestral home. Now we have to go back."

The shopkeeper nodded and said: "So that's the case. It's not surprising that the guest officer didn't know. I heard that the imperial court is going to build a dam again. Those people are afraid that they will be recruited for labor again. They have a lot of strong men in their families. Why don't they hurry over here?" Set up a branch."

"If it is not the time, the Yamen will not handle it. Now that the paperwork is divided into families, one person only needs one tael for opening an account. When that time comes, those who don't want to go will have to pay ten taels to 20 taels. How can they afford this?" money?"

The good mood of the father and son disappeared immediately, and after thanking the shopkeeper, they had no intention of continuing their shopping, and simply returned to the palace ahead of schedule.

Sitting on the chair in the study room, the crown prince said to Emperor Jin Ming: "Father, my son heard that one tael of silver is almost half a year's expenses for an ordinary farm family. Can we have a way to solve the problem of the common people? Don't cut down on food and clothing to spend this unnecessary expenses?"

Situzheng stared and said: "Father, my son doesn't really like to eat eggs. Let's save the eggs from the daily share of the palace in the future. It just so happens that one egg can save a family's money. It can save more than 300 families."

After finishing speaking, Situ Zheng licked his mouth. Everyone knew that Situ Zheng liked sugar eggs very much. Every time, he would suck the egg yolk into his mouth to savor the unique sweet taste of the eggs.

Emperor Jin Ming was moved, his two sons are good, one must be a qualified good emperor in the future, and he will keep the sufferings of the people in his heart.

The other one is even more innocent and cute, worthy of being the reincarnated beast that the emperor's uncle asserted would protect Situ's family.

However, the prince asked strangely: "Xiaoqi, who told you that an egg costs one tael of silver?"

Emperor Jin Ming also came to his senses, he and the crown prince didn't really abandon the shopkeeper because they didn't understand common affairs at all.

After receiving Master Mingdeng's words and thoroughly identifying the heir, in order for the prince to understand the sufferings of the people and become a qualified emperor, Emperor Jin Ming often took the prince out of the palace in low clothes to experience life, so naturally he knew the price.

Situzheng said without hesitation: "When the Ministry of Internal Affairs gave the account book to the queen mother, I heard the mother said: Now the prices are getting higher and higher. Last year, one tael of silver could buy three eggs. When the spring started, it was a cold spring. I don’t know how many chickens died, and now the eggs have risen to one or two.”

In order to show that he did not lie, Situ Zheng repeated it to Emperor Jin Ming and the crown prince verbatim.

The expected scene of praising him for being smart didn't come. Instead, the seriousness in the eyes of Emperor Jin Ming and the Crown Prince was a bit scary. Gu Mancang in the corner behind him wanted to hide himself, and his forehead was covered with beads of sweat.

Thinking that he was not clear, Situzheng continued to add: "Nurse Zhang also echoed and said: Isn't it true that even the cabbage has reached fifty cents a piece, but there is no other way, not to mention that the people who buy these are all The necessities are that His Highness the Seventh Prince likes to eat fried eggs, so these eggs have to be brought in every day."

Gu Mancang almost cried, secretly said: Seventh Highness, don't add fuel to the flames, even if you want to clean up the House of Internal Affairs, let the old slave out first!

Emperor Jin Ming laughed back in anger, and said flatly: "What a group of good servants! This is treating the House of Internal Affairs as their own home, and teasing the master like a fool!"

Then, Emperor Jin Ming clapped his hands, and a black shadow suddenly appeared in front of them. It was the shadow of the previous emperor. , Tell them, if they can't figure it out, they will all get the hell out of me!"

Gu Mancang secretly said: Your majesty, you haven't killed enough people in the south of the Yangtze River, and you plan to return to Beijing to continue?Also, Your Highness the Seventh Prince, you are truly the nemesis of corrupt officials, you can demand the heads of a bunch of people with just a word!

The shadow answered yes, and seeing that the emperor had nothing else to say, he disappeared quietly again.

The prince was afraid that his younger brother would be deceived by the slaves in the mansion when he opened the mansion in the future, so he quickly popularized common sense: "Xiao Qi, these tricks are obviously used by the servants to fool the women who don't leave the house."

"They have been imprisoned in the back house all year round, coupled with their affluent lives, they cannot understand the amount of one tael of silver. After all, the minimum we reward slaves is ten taels or twenty taels."

"So, even if it's the queen mother, she just compares it to the old calendar of previous years and sighs, and she doesn't know the tricks here."

"However, when you went out of the palace with your father this time, you bought so many things. For ordinary people, if you live frugally, you may not buy a single thing in half a year. In total, you don't even need 200 taels. This is because you finally bought seven gold locks for a hundred taels of silver."

"If you think about it again, if an egg is one tael of silver, which farmer doesn't raise three or five chickens? Even if a chicken lays an egg a day, it can still earn three or five taels of silver a day. What eats bran swallowing vegetables?"

"How much can you exchange for rice and noodles with eggs? You don't even need to farm the land, so you can be full naturally, right? Also, at noon, you ate a big bowl of chaos. Do you remember how much it cost?" ?”

This was Situ Zheng's treat, so he knew it, so he said without thinking, "A big bowl of eight coins! It's delicious!" After finishing speaking, he swallowed his saliva again.

The crown prince nodded and said: "Yes, a big bowl of eight Wen coins will satisfy everyone who eats it, and one tael of silver is a consistent money, that is, one thousand Wen. Do the math, how many bowls of Chaos can one tael of silver buy? "

Situ Zheng is in a daze, isn't this embarrassing?Have you ever seen a dog who could figure out how to divide 1000 by 8?Situ Zheng, who counted with his fingers, gritted his teeth.

Of course, the prince didn't intend to ask his three-year-old brother to solve such a problem, but said: "If it really happens one day, it's actually quite good, at least the poor can have food."

Emperor Jin Ming looked at the crown prince and asked, "Cer, how do you think this matter should be resolved?"

The prince asked: "Which one is the father talking about?"

Emperor Jin Ming said: "Which one does Ce'er think can solve it completely?"
