Chapter 134: Money Shortage

"How do you judge that he is a Khitan?" On the dock of Quanzhou, Li Sanjian touched his chin and beard, and asked Wu Miaoshan, the deputy envoy of Quanzhou Inspection.

"The forehead is narrow, the face is round rather than pointed, and the bridge of the nose is high and straight." Wu Miaoshan replied.

"Not necessarily, right? How does this official look like... Mongolia... Belch... Tatars? Li Sanjian asked after taking a closer look at the face of the young man who fainted on the ground.

Mongolia at this time was not called Mongolia, but was called the Tatar tribes.

"The people in the north all look the same." Wu Miaoshan looked up at Li Sanjian in surprise and then said: "The beard of the Khitan people is different from that of my Song people, please see the Xianggong of Zhizhou, the top of this person's skull is different from the hair around the skull, the top of the skull is newly grown new hair, new and thin, and the hair around the head is old and thick, this is the custom of the Khitan people "hair", and the subordinates conclude that this person is not a Han person, but a Khitan person. ”

As far as Wu Miaoshan knew, Li Sanjian was an authentic southerner and had never been north of the Yellow River, so how did Li Sanjian know what the Tatars looked like? What the Tatars look like, Wu Miaoshan doesn't know.

"Makes sense... After Li Sanjian heard the praise, he was still unconvinced and asked, "But what if he is a monk?" Of course, monks will also have new hair when they are still lay. ”

"Have you ever seen a monk shave his head and only the top of his skull?" Wu Miaoshan replied a little depressedly: "And there are ring holes in this person's earlobes, he should have been wearing earrings in the past." ”

Li Sanjian is an informal person and will not care about a sentence or two.

Wu Miaoshan has been under Li Sanjian for several years, so sometimes he speaks more casually, and Li Sanjian doesn't care.

"Haha!" Li Sanjian smiled when he heard this: "Inspector Wu is worthy of being born as a fast catcher, and he really observes carefully. ”

"Why haven't you brought the rice porridge yet?" Li Sanjian then asked after looking around.

"What does Li Zhizhou plan to do with this person." Wu Miaoshan asked.

"What else can be done? Wake up, and let him do it himself. Li Sanjian thought for a moment and said.

"No!" Wu Miaoshan shook his head when he heard this: "If this person is a Khitan worker, he should be detained in prison and interrogated carefully." ”

"Have you ever seen a thin work that has been fainted by hunger?" After Li Sanjian glared at Wu Miaoshan, he couldn't help but smile and said: "This person is so young, it shouldn't be a Khitan fine work, and even if it is a Khitan fine work, why did he come all the way to Quanzhou?" Therefore, this person is by no means a Khitan meticulous work. ”

"Stone, stone, what's wrong with you? Wake up, Gon'er has come back from begging for some porridge, you can get up and drink some of it, just drink it. Just as Li Sanjian, Wu Miaoshan and others were talking and discussing around the fainted young man, a younger teenager rushed into the crowd desperately with a bowl of porridge, threw himself in front of the fainted young man, and cried.

The boy was also in rags, and his condition was unusually pitiful.

"Hey, little brother, don't worry, he's just fainting from hunger, and it's fine." Li Sanjian couldn't bear it when he saw this, so he spoke.

"Wake this man up quickly." Li Sanjian then instructed Wu Miaoshan and others.

At this time, the two inspectors also happened to find a pot of hot porridge, so Wu Miaoshan and others gathered around the fainted boy to rescue.

"Your name is Gun'er? His name is Stone? That's a nickname, right? Can you have a name? When Wu Miaoshan and others came to the rescue, Li Sanjian had nothing to do, so he asked Xiang Gong'er

"Where are you from?" Where to go? ”

"I only have a nickname, no name... He... The surname is Xu. . . It's called Xu Shishi. Gon Er glanced at Li Sanjian with a wince, and stammered in reply.

Gun'er's eyes flickered when he spoke, and he stammered in reply, so how could he escape the eyes of Li Sanjian, who was once an official of the Kaifeng Prefecture's Law Department?

So Li Sanjian's face sank and he shouted: "Tell the truth! ”

"Boy, do you know who this old man in front of you is? He's the old man of Quanzhou, so let's be honest. A patrol inspector next to him patted Gun'er on the cheek with a scabbard and said.

The Khitan surname is basically only Yelu and Xiao, if the fainting boy is really a Khitan person, then he must not be surnamed Yelu or Xiao, there is no reason for the surname Xu, but there are also many Han people under Liao, and it is not surprising that there are Han people surnamed Xu under Liao, and at the same time, the Han people under Liaozhi also have "hair".

Gun'er was frightened, even more frightened, shrunk aside, looked at Li Sanjian in horror, and didn't dare to answer.

"Don't push him... At this time, after the young man named Shi was rescued by Wu Miaoshan and others, he said weakly: "My surname is Xiao, and my name is Shi." ”

Xiaoshi? Xiao Shi? Xiao should also be a pseudonym, Li Sanjian said secretly in his heart, but this should be their last resort, if the surname "Yelu" or "Xiao" all day long walks around the Great Song Dynasty, wouldn't it be difficult to move an inch? I believe that within a few steps, it will be taken into the government.

So Li Sanjian no longer pressed to ask about this matter, nodded and asked Xiangshi, "Why did you come to Quanzhou?" What is the reason for coming to Quanzhou? ”

"I... I came to study, and I was going to Kaifeng Mansion, but I got on the Yaren ship and went here. Stone replied through gritted teeth.

"I see!" Li Sanjian nodded.

When Li Sanjian heard the word "studying", he couldn't help but feel compassion in his heart.

Shi and Gun'er can tell at a glance whether they are from a wealthy family, so it will be even more difficult for them to go out to study, whether they are Song or Khitan.

The so-called knowledge has no borders, and it seems that whether it is the Song people or the Liao people, there are always people who tirelessly pursue learning.

"Studying? Hehe, you've come to the right place ... Wu Miaoshan smiled when he heard this, and said to the stone: "This person in front of you is the champion of my Great Song Gengchenke." ”

Gengchenke's champion? Hearing this, Shi looked at Li Sanjian blankly, speechless for a long time.

Of course, the champion's knowledge is the best, otherwise he won't be able to win the champion.

Li Sanjian glared at Wu Miaoshan and then ordered: "For the time being, send them to the Taishou Mansion, have a good rest, and then do other things." ”

It seems that there is a need to set up some almshouses in Quanzhou, Li Sanjian secretly said in his heart, otherwise he would not be able to relieve many people with just the Taishou Mansion.

At this moment, the sound of horses' hooves sounded, and several healthy horses galloped over, and the first one was Cui Yongzi, the general judge of Quanzhou.

"Cui Tongju, what are you... Li Sanjian asked in surprise when he saw this.

"What are you doing?" Cui Yongzi asked angrily.

"There are two ... They... Li Sanjian replied.

"Do you have time to do this? Something big happens, hurry up and go back to the state with me. "Cui Yongzi

Interrupted Li Sanjian's words anxiously.

So Li Sanjian got on his horse and galloped towards the Quanzhou Prefecture with Cui Yongji.

。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。

"Smack!" In the Quanzhou Prefecture Office, Li Sanjian slapped the imperial court on the book case and said angrily: "Those who mess with the world, but this person is also!" ”

There are two things said in the imperial court urgent, one is the "Yuanyou Party Monument", and the other is the "currency system reform" of the imperial court.

On the list of "Yuan You Traitor Party", the name of Li Sanjian's mentor Su Shi jumped on the paper, and at this time, the imperial court not only erected the "Yuan You Party Monument", but also asked all state capitals to do the same, so how could Li Sanjian not be angry?

Even if the political views are different, even if some of Su Shi's political views are wrong, he cannot be included in the list of traitors! Is there such a traitorous party who is loyal to the country? Is there such a traitorous party who is loyal to the country? Is there such a traitorous party with such loyalty and righteousness? Is there such a traitorous party who loves the people like a son?

Li Sanjian's heart was like the tide of the sea at this time, surging and surging up and down.

"It's just a matter of fighting against political opponents." Li Sanjian then said indignantly.

"Shhhh Be silent, be cautious, and be careful that the wall has ears. Cui Yongzi hurriedly persuaded when he heard this.

is still too young, still young and vigorous, unable to hold his breath, Cui Yongzi secretly said in his heart, if Li Sanjian's words are heard by people with ulterior motives, and then played to the court, then it is the crime of lying and slandering, at least it is slandering Cai Jing, and at worst it is lying and slandering the emperor, and the consequences are very serious.

At this moment, the entire Kaifeng Mansion in Tokyo has been shrouded in a tense atmosphere.

"Li Zhizhou, Su Gong's name is listed on it, at this moment, how can Cui not understand your mood? But that's how it is, and it can't be changed. Besides, you don't know about the affairs of my court, how can the people of Feng and Yu be so entangled, how can they make a difference? At this time, Cui admired the courage of Jin Shang and Cai Yuanchang, and the power of thunder can have a thunderous change. Cui Yongzi thought about it and said to Li Sanjian.

"Okay, okay... Li Sanjian was a little angry when he heard this, and said to Cui Yongji: "According to Cui Tong's judgment, there is courage and the power of thunder, so what is the matter with the 'currency system reform'?" Why is there a 'currency change'? Such a 'currency reform' is really a thunderous change, and for the people, this is no different from a thunderbolt from the sky. ”

"This..." Cui Yongzi was so shocked by Li Sanjian's words that he opened his mouth, and only after half a sound did he speak: "Why do you want to carry out 'currency system reform', it is nothing more than a shortage of state resources and a shortage of money... ”

"What is a money shortage?" Li Sanjian interrupted Cui Yongzi's words.

"Hey, Li Zhizhou, didn't you ask knowingly?" Cui Yongzi sighed when he heard this.

The so-called money shortage is the insufficient supply of copper coins in the market.

At present, the main currency on the market is copper money, if the supply of copper money is insufficient, it will inevitably cause the goods to not be sold, and the business can only take the countermeasure of price reduction, in the long run, because of the continuous decline in prices, it will inevitably bring direct losses to farmers, handicraft workshops, businessmen, etc., and even bankruptcy, bankruptcy, but also will make business depression, economic contraction, and even produce a serious economic crisis.

Li Sanjian still has some understanding of this, so Li Sanjian asked knowingly.
