Tang's dining table

Facts have proven that large-scale armed robbery is the fastest way to make money.

Especially after handing over the looted goods to the merchants in Chang'an who knew the true value of the goods, the profits became even more generous.

The consistent money is a thousand solid yellow copper coins, all of which are new money from Qian Jian, one of the five bureaus and three supervisors under Shaofu Jian. Qian Jian has two coin minting bureaus in Guanzhong, one in Pizhou and the other in Guanzhong. In Fufeng, especially the copper coins produced by Pizhou Coin Mining Bureau are of the best quality. Eight hundred coins can be used as one thousand coins.

Since Yun Chu wanted to award rewards to the soldiers, he naturally wanted to use the best. Basically all the money distributed to the soldiers this time came from the Pizhou Coin Mining Bureau.

Money usually weighs six pounds and forty taels. The average amount of money for the soldiers on this expedition was eleven pounds and three hundred dollars. It is a lot and the weight is solid. However, this little money is enough to buy a three-year-old farm cow in Chang'an. .

This is because Chang'an is the most prosperous place in the world. It is rare to see it elsewhere. The sale of cattle needs to be managed by the government. No one cares about it in Chang'an. As long as you have money, you can buy as much as you want. Even so, a cow The price of Twelve Guan still scares many people.

However, there are still many soldiers waiting to buy cattle after receiving the reward money.

Farm cattle are different from the yaks that the Yun family often cooks in the pot. In the Tang Dynasty, the importance of farm cattle to farmers was almost equal to the population, or even more important. After all, in the past, it was enough to get a wife with three to five thousand dollars. She is the daughter of a good family.

Nowadays, life in Guanzhong is easy, and betrothal gifts have become expensive. When a man gets married, he has to buy a house and furniture. After adding the betrothal gift, there is basically nothing left for ten thousand yuan.

Therefore, it is now popular for people in Guanzhong to buy wives.

Of course, the first-class people are naturally Tang people. However, buying and selling Tang people will disgrace local officials. Unless they encounter official sales, the risk of buying and selling Tang people privately is very high. Once the newly bought wife runs away, the government will not I will help you, but I don’t recognize this kind of marriage.

The second-class ones are naturally the famous Xinluo women. Xinluo women can speak Tang dialect, and their customs are the same as those of the Tang Dynasty. The good-looking ones have long been bought by dignitaries, and they have nothing to do with the common people. But, Those with average looks are more numerous, so they are related to ordinary people.

It's a pity that today's new wives are impure. Those damn human traffickers often pretend to be Korean maids and Baekje maids. If they accidentally buy a Japanese slave, they will piss the buyer to death.

Qiang people and Bo people are also acceptable, mainly because they are easy to support and can work, but it is a bit embarrassing to use them as the first wife.

The Bodhisattvas in the Western Regions have nothing to do with ordinary people, just look at them and think they look good.

If they are not to be used as wives but to buy labor, then Japanese slaves are the best. Despite their small size, their strength is indeed real.

You can buy three Japanese slaves for the price of a cow, and they will still be able to plow the land.

The expedition to the southwest was just one fierce battle, and it was a crushing one. Besides the gold medal around their necks, the soldiers were basically satisfied that they could get so much money.

Even those old soldiers who followed Yunchu in the Eastern Expedition were a little sad. After all, the southwest was a poor land. The general scraped the land in the southwest three feet deep, and the only reward they got was the Eastern Expedition. Half of the army and 70% of the Western Expedition.

"This little money is enough to build a few tile-roofed houses."

I don't know which fool was so disappointed that he even said what was in his heart, and then attracted everyone's attention.

The person who could say such heartless words was a veteran who had followed Yun Chu on various expeditions. The people around him were all soldiers who had followed Yun Chu on an expedition for the first time. They had originally learned that they could get so much money. I was so excited that I almost burst into tears. This money can buy cattle, a wife, labor, and build a house. If I choose a calf, I can buy an uglier wife and build an inferior house. All the major events in my life will be completed.

Are there any assholes here who are insatiable?

The commander-in-chief shouldn't bring these stupid things with him the next time he goes on an expedition.

Before the money was distributed, Yun Chu took a look at Yu Xiurong from a distance, then took the two lunatics who needed to go to Beijing to face the saint, as well as the officer corps, and set foot on Baqiao, heading straight for Luoyang.

Yun Jin and Li Si took the six elephants home in an anxious mood.

They knew that Aye's first test was easy, and it was just a beating, but Aniang was in trouble here, and Aniang's tears were even more intolerable than Aye's whip.

Unexpectedly, after returning home, Yu Xiurong did not show any respect to the two of them, and was extremely gentle to them. When Yun Jin did not come back, Yu Xiurong felt that his son could be killed.

When she saw the dark and thin Yun Jin with her own eyes, she felt that it was her man Yun Chu who should be killed!

Seeing Li Si running in to help Yun Jin while she was taking a bath, Yu Xiurong sighed and wrote the memorial letter that night, and sent it off as quickly as possible through the official post the next day.

In the past, when Yun Jin was a child, she would bring her maid to take a bath. Later, she became the mother-in-law in Yun Jin's room. When she got older, Yun Jin didn't need anyone else to take a bath. Now, Li Si went in... …

There is no logic at all about the matter between men and women. Once the thought arises, it is like wildfire burning the heart. Especially after the young man and woman have tasted the forbidden fruit, they want to stick together all day long. There is nothing else in their hearts except the matter between men and women.

Yu Xiurong recalled for no reason the time when she and her husband first met, and then said viciously to Ms. Cui: "Back then, you, an old man, used words of blessing from the three talents of heaven, earth and man to scare me and my husband. Today, you don't say a word." ”

Mrs. Cui smiled and said, "This is the same time as that. When the Yun Sect was founded, my wife and the head of the family must act in an upright manner. Now, it doesn't matter. There is room for correction of small deviations."

Hearing Li Si's laughter coming from the bathhouse in the distance, Yu Xiurong had no choice but to take Cui back to his house.

When Cui saw that there was no one around, she whispered to Yu Xiurong: "In the past three months, the price of food has risen six times, but it has been offset by the large amount of food shipped by the government from Dali Chaoyi Cang.

Shopkeeper Zeng of Liushui Brand said that the price of grains on Liushui Brand is still rising secretly. It will rise by three cents, then drop by two cents, and then rise by one penny. After one and a half months, the price of bulk grains on Chang'an Liushui Brand has actually increased. An increase of 60%.

It's just that the price of food in Chang'an has not changed. From the current situation, it can be said that the affordable food that the people of Chang'an eat is actually a bargain obtained by the Chang'an government's use of authority to forcibly restrict it.

However, within two months at most, that is, by the end of October, the large quantities of grain listed on the Liushui brand should be cashed in. By that time, it is a foregone conclusion that the price of grain will have doubled.

The head of the family told King Yong and others today that they are preparing to provide relief to the victims, which will inevitably require a large amount of food. Since Guanzhong itself is a disaster area, if the head of the family prepares to deliver food receipts to the counterparty, I am afraid that he will have to spend three times the amount of funds before the operation. . "

When Yu Xiurong heard this, he sighed and said, "The family just got a little money..."

Ms. Cui shook his head and said: "You don't need to take money from your family. Our family has a large position in Liushui Brand. Not only us, but Master Wen and Master Di's family's positions in Liushui Brand have also reached the highest point in two years and can be harvested." .

At that time, there will be a lot of money coming in. The old slave just wants to ask Madam, do you want to pay back the two million yuan from Daci'en Temple? "

Yu Xiurong sighed and said: "Our family still owes Da Ci'en Temple Xiangji Kitchen a total of two hundred and forty-three-seven thousand six hundred yuan. You always keep the amount of money that our family owes to others for no reason. This is not good." .”

Cui smiled and said: "This is Cai Yun'er's idea. Every time she meets Master Xuanzang, she will say a number, and the number gets smaller every time. Master Xuanzang always says good, good, good... Anyway, they are all monks. Repay the temple money as little as you can. This money is to be used to buy food to provide relief to the victims. It is the same whether we pay it or the monks pay it. Master Xuanzang has already agreed."

Yu Xiurong looked at Cui's rogue appearance and said: "You can't bully Master Xuanzang like this. If you have the ability, tell Master Piaoji this and see if he will spit in your face."

Ms. Cui smiled bitterly and said: "It is too unfair for Mr. Yun to bear the huge debt to save Liushui Brand. This should be the national debt of the Tang Dynasty."

Yu Xiurong smiled and said: "If it is the National Debt of the Tang Dynasty, why should we control the Liushui brand?"

Mrs. Cui nodded and fell silent.

"Mother." Yun Jin walked over quickly from outside with a hint of shame on her face. Yu Xiurong pretended not to notice and just said softly: "Sixteen years of upbringing has been ruined in one day."

Li Si, who came in later, wanted to get close to Yu Xiurong as before, but was forced back by Yu Xiurong's cold gaze.

"I have already submitted the marriage proposal, please wait."

Li Si bit her lip and said, "It's my fault."

Yu Xiurong said to Yun Jin: "Aniang has prepared the best house in Chang'an for you on the left side of Zhuque Street. The house is small and cramped, but you can live more spacious there."

Yun Jin knelt down in front of Yu Xiurong and said, "I know I'm wrong, kid."

Yu Xiurong stood up slowly, raised his hand and slapped Yun Jin on the face. Before Yun Jin could react, a piece of light yellow thorn slipped out of his sleeve, he picked up the thorn and slapped it down shamelessly.

Li Si screamed and lay on top of Yun Jin. She expected that Yu Xiurong didn't care who she slapped. Anyway, if she didn't express her feelings today, she would feel sorry for the ancestors of the Yun family.

Are you trying to reason with Yun Jin and Li Si?

The two of them have read more books than Yu Xiurong has read in the past few years. They study all the big principles all day long. If you tell them a truth, these two bastards will have a hundred truths waiting to tell her. .

Today, the house is clean. Naha, who loves Yun Jin the most, was sent to the Wannian County dungeon by Yu Xiurong. Cui Yao, Yun Jin, Yun Luan, and Yun Guan were all sent away, leaving behind an empty house, just waiting. Teach those two bastards Yun Jin and Li Si a lesson.

Reasoning with the Yun family is just asking for trouble. Under normal circumstances, it is the Yun family who is trying to reason with others.

Therefore, if the Yun family wanted to correct their mistakes, Huang Jingtiao was the most effective way.

Although he is not as wealthy and grand as a big family, and is as vulgar as the lower-class people, this kind of education is the most correct way to educate the Yun family.

I can’t stay in Hainan anymore and will return to Gansu tomorrow.
