Ling Qingyu paused, Lingjia Village still lacks people, especially such experienced miners and smelters, and of course artisans. Said: "I want to go to sea, but you can rest assured that there is no problem with safety and food in the future. One month is paid according to the output, and the rice is provided free of charge according to the population."

Liu Jueming and his wife looked at each other overjoyed, and asked in disbelief, "Is there such a good place?"

Ling Qingyu smiled and said, "I have something to go to Chang'an first. I'll pay you the travel expenses. You first go to Hangzhou to find my steward. He will arrange for you to board the ship. You are not afraid of death. Are you afraid of being deceived?"

Liu Jueming nodded and asked carefully, "Most of the iron households in our village and the surrounding villages can't survive. Can we go together?"

This is already a dead family... No wonder when I came in, I felt that there was no popularity here. Ling Qingyu sighed and said: "It's okay to go, but if you are all moving, it won't be good if you are known by the government. It's best to leave separately, and Except you, don’t let people know where you are going, just say that you can’t live anymore and find your way elsewhere."

Liu Jueming understood when he thought about it, and nodded: "What the girl said is that it's still time for the Chinese New Year. The government has fewer people in charge. If you want to leave, you have to leave at this time. The girl can rest assured that she will definitely not be tired to the girl. Discuss with the villagers whether to go out and find a way to survive, and leave if you like."

"Yeah." Ling Qingyu nodded.

"Then, I will ask now?" Liu Jueming asked, rubbing his hands, seeing Ling Qingyu nodding, hurriedly got up and went out.

Not only the agricultural tax, but even the mineral tax is killing people. How far is the situation this week? Ling Qing Yucai couldn't taste the taste even after eating it.

"Master, you said there is a gold mine here?" Han Mian asked while sitting beside Ling Qingyu.

"There should be, but at this time, someone may not have discovered it, in Xiao Qinling." Ling Qingyu also whispered.

"If they want to leave, their household registration will be useless, they can borrow their names to buy this mountain forest first." Han Mian said in a low voice. Although the management of the miner is with the household registration, it is not with the land deed, so you can take advantage of the opportunities.

It's just that when Liu Jueming came back and said how many people were going to go together, Han Mian gave up the idea, **** it, the people in the surrounding ten villages are all empty!

"When I asked, the people in the village over there were also discussing whether to fight to the death, or move to another place, and stay here again, I'm afraid that people are going to die." Liu Jueming said, his voice was a bit sly. , With such a calculation, there are actually hundreds of people who drag their families and mouths, indeed a lot.

Ling Qingyu was also a little stunned. After thinking about it, he said, "In this way, if you go together, I'm afraid it will be a little bit punched. It will be divided into two parts, one will go to Hangzhou, and the other will go to Quanzhou." If there are no accidents, Zhu Weili has already brought Australia and Australia together. The mines in Papua have been found, and these people can be skilled workers.

"Anyone can go?" Liu Jueming said with joy.

"Yes, you are divided into two paths, and you will find a reliable person to lead the team on the other way. I will first give you a hundred taels of silver as the travel expenses." Seeing Liu Jueming's eyes narrowed, Ling Qingyu's face became slightly cold, and said: "But I have to say it first. After I go, I will listen to me. As long as my subordinates are willing to do it, they will not be treated badly. But if you have selfishness and betrayal, don't blame me for being cruel."

Liu Jueming was stunned, and then said, "The girl looked down upon us a little bit by what she said. The girl saved us, and we also know good or bad. If someone does something like that, you don't have to wait for the girl to take action. Liu will kill him first. "

"That's very good." Ling Qingyu nodded and smiled: "The specific route, you discuss with Mr. Han, we will leave at dawn, you wait for two days before leaving, remember, you must not publicize it and leave secretly."

"We saved it." Liu Jueming nodded.

Ling Qingyu asked Ying Thirteen to take fifty taels of broken silver and gave Liu Jueming fifty pennies of copper coins, and then asked, "Enough?" Before Liu Jueming could speak, after thinking about it, she said to Ying Thirteen: "Take another fifty. Two pieces of silver, how much copper do we have?"

"Enough is enough." Liu Jueming said hurriedly, so much money!

"There are still thirty coins of copper coins, the master, we still have to keep some." Ying Shisan said, or go out and buy a steamed stuffed bun and give them a coin of fifty taels of silver, or a silver ticket, they won't kill you directly. !

"Then take the big silver, you break it to him." Ling Qingyu said.

A pile of broken silver, seventy coins, another leader, Wang Jiawei, watched for a long while, and then knocked Ling Qingyu three times on his knees, his head and heart were bleeding, and he said: "Girl's help, don't you dare to forget !"

Ling Qingyu hurriedly helped him up and said, "Don't say that, mutual benefit, ha ha."

After tossing for a whole night, I didn't sleep at all. Before dawn, Han Mo urged him to go on the road. With such a big move, you must not leave any traces of them.

They didn't even leave the letters they went to Hangzhou and Quanzhou, including their own names. They only said that they could go to the place where there are sailors on the dock.

Of course, the letter explaining the matter here will be passed through the channel, and the men as sailors, women and children can only smuggle.

Lingbao County is not big, just one street and one inn, so you can only live in if you have no choice.

When Han Mian went to change the copper coins, Ling Qingyu wanted to go shopping.

"Your injury hasn't healed, and you didn't sleep last night. Just rest here first. Thirteen are all right now." Ling Qingyu said.

"Thirteen drove the car for a day before he needed to rest." Yan San said, putting on his shirt. After repeated accidents, she didn't dare to let her leave his sight again.

Hey, too, Sum, his look is too eye-catching, even if he is fully armed now, even the hair is not exposed, but his whole body is wrapped in black, which is even more weird. This can't be taken for shopping, Xiesaburo... Don't forget the bear kid, buy something and he can kill him!

Although it is still in the first month, there are very few pedestrians on the street, and with a sense of depression, the shops that are already relatively small have not opened because of the New Year.

After shopping for a while, Ling Qingyu was a little discouraged.

Seeing a snack shop opened, he pulled Yan San into the shop.

I ordered a few sesame seed cakes for bowl noodles, and the two sat in the small shop to eat.

Yan San saw that Ling Qingyu was eating happily and asked, "It's delicious?"

"Well, it tastes good, you taste it." Ling Qingyu broke a sesame seed cake, and it was delicious.

Yan San shook his head and took a piece of chopsticks noodles. This person, as long as it is eaten, there is nothing bad. It is no wonder that Lu Yao is obsessed with Lu Yao's craftsmanship, and cooking is not difficult.

"I heard that another family died in Majiazhai." Several locals walked in while talking, ordered some noodles and sesame seed, and sat down and said.

"A lot of homes have died, and now there are no mines in the pit. Ask the miners to go there to look for mines, hey, commit sin."

"Did you see the notice outside the county office?"

"We don't know how to read, what do you write?"

"It is said that the government wants to sell the mountainous land in Xiaoqinling. If you are willing to buy it, you can go to the government to buy it."

"Little Qinling? How much do you sell?"

"One hundred thousand taels of silver."

"The county magistrate is crazy about money, and there is no way to plant the land in Xiaoqinling, and the trees are not worth the money. How worth the price?"

"Tax lessons can't be collected, don't you want to find money to make up?"

The locals ate fast and left after eating soon.

Seeing that the money they lost on the table seemed a little different, Ling Qingyu turned his head to look.

"What else does the girl want?" The lady boss came over to collect the money and asked when she saw Ling Qingyu's appearance.

"This money is not a copper coin?" Ling Qingyu asked, pointing to the coin in her hand.

"This is iron money, the girl is not from Lingbao, right? The original one? We also use this money here, but this money is lighter than copper coins." The lady boss shook her head and shouted back to the boss: " The Chen family gave three less iron coins."

Iron money, the economy in the Northern Song Dynasty was deeply affected by light money. I originally thought that there was no such thing in Da Zhou, but it was only where I had been.

"How?" Yan San asked unconsciously when she saw her solemn expression.

"There is a problem with Da Zhou's finances." Ling Qingyu lowered his voice to Yan Sandao, and said that Yan San didn't understand the reason, so it was better to talk about the result directly, and then said: "In the third division, only the Ministry of Household is under Dong's family. All of them belong to the royal family. The three departments bear the brunt of the financial problems of the state, and then the military expenses. Hey, let’s see how the two of them deal with it."

She laughed cunningly, and Yan San didn't realize it. She was different from him. Yan San's way of solving hatred was very direct and violent, while Ling Qingyu liked to turn so many ways. Sometimes Yan San felt that she just enjoyed the special It is the feeling that all the money in the enemy's pocket is drawn into his own pocket.

Back at the inn and handed the biscuits brought back to a few people who couldn't get out of the door, Ling Qingyu pulled Han Mimi who had just returned.

"You mean to buy that Little Qinling Mountain." Han Mian asked.

"Yes, if the county magistrate is really to subsidize the tax, then this matter will be very anxious, and the verification of our identity will not be so strict. Didn't Shi Fang lead the way? Using his name, just say like The landscape here, I want to cultivate a Taoist temple or something." Ling Qingyu said.

Taoist temple! Han Mi laughed unconsciously, then nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go to the county government."

Ling Qingyu took out a stack of banknotes and said, "Bring the stone, and then we must use the banknotes as soon as possible. I guess the banknotes will depreciate soon."

"Why?" Han Yan asked in surprise.

"Today I was eating on the street, and someone next to me paid the bill with iron money. I calculated it. The ratio of the store's charge was three iron coins for one copper coin. I ask you, how much iron money is consumed on Shaanxi Road?" Ling Qingyu asked.

Han Meng paused for a moment, his face sank, and said, "It consumes a lot of money. There are large-scale iron coins in Sichuan, Shu and Shaanxi Road, but the official price is one to one."

"Moreover, I saw that he paid a relatively large copper coin. If calculated based on what they ate, would that large copper coin count as ten coins?" Ling Qingyu asked.

"Yes." Han Yan nodded.

"The cost of casting a tenth coin and iron coin is only one-third of copper coin. If such money is used for a long time, the coin will be lighter and heavier, causing depreciation. If someone casts it privately, it will aggravate this trend. Look, it didn’t take long for the imperial court to adjust the conversion ratio of iron money. If the currency itself becomes chaotic and people in the imperial court are short-sighted, it will easily cause the currency system to collapse. Another point is that the mining tax department is now With such a heavy weight, the miners have escaped, so the output of copper and iron will be affected, and the casting of copper coins will also be drastically reduced. When the money-based currency decreases, let’s put it this way, if the silver bills in our hands and the actual What happens when the copper coins or silver that can be exchanged do not match, and are far below the real thing?" Ling Qingyu himself was a little sweaty, grandma, I still have five million silver tickets! More than that, with the addition of Han Xie Zheng Xi and Cai Jingfang's hands, it is far more than that.
