Chapter 6 The Situation of Money and Grain in Liu's Mansion

Liu Xian has a big heart! The gloomy feeling of mother's death in my heart has also dissipated a lot.

got his uncle Liang Ji to recognize the master, and there were seven villagers who could barely be regarded as young and strong, and no matter how capable they were, how loyal they were, whether they could really serve themselves and die.

But after all, there are people available in this hand, and he is no longer a loner. Otherwise, he would only guard this Liu Mansion with Zheng Bo and Xiaojing, and he was really panicked in his heart, and he was really worried that the thieves would suddenly descend and he would suffer a catastrophe.

In fact, if he couldn't get Liang Ji's support, Liu Xian really considered in his heart that after dealing with his mother's funeral, he would have to take Zheng Feng and Xiaojing to leave this Liu Mansion and find another way to live.

It's just that Liu Xian also understands that the current Eastern Han Dynasty is completely chaotic, and no matter where he goes, he will not live in peace.

Liu Xian thought about it and thought that if he really didn't have a way to gain a foothold in these three kingdoms on his own. Then, perhaps he could go to his mother's own devotion, the two sisters of the Emperor, the Imperial Aunt, or the three daughters, the princess and cousin. These five daughters should be the closest people to Liu Xian in this world. Especially the two imperial aunts, they should be closer.

In addition, in fact, there is another place to go, which is the other uncle, Liu Shuo, the king of the plains.

However, this uncle died earlier than his father and has been absent for a long time, although the fief of the king of the plains is still there, and the palace is still there, but the current plain palace is probably already a thing.

These are not the memories in the original Liu Xian's mind, in fact, there are not many valuable things in the memories of the original Liu Xian, basically all the bits and pieces of his life in this Liulin Village. His mother did not tell him about his father Liu Kui and things related to Liu Kui.

All of this is actually Liu Xian's memory of some historical books he watched in the postmodern era.

This is indeed the welfare of the traverser, now, Liu Xian's memory seems to be particularly profound, especially about the people and things in the Three Kingdoms, as long as he encounters relevant people or things, he can remember the records in the books he has read.

Of course, there will definitely be a lot of discrepancies between the records in those books and the real historical facts, and it cannot be necessarily historical facts.

But as an amateur historical archaeologist, I am a lover of the Three Kingdoms who have eaten the Romance of the Three Kingdoms many times, especially scholars who are more interested in the history of the Three Kingdoms period. Now that he has traveled to this Three Kingdoms era, the historical book memories of those Three Kingdoms period are his strongest golden fingers.

He remembered that the Plains Mansion was not too far from him, it was in Liwu Boling, just more than two hundred miles away from the north of Liulin Village in Julu County. This place is actually the hometown of Emperor Huan and his father Liu Kui.

The current Plains Mansion is presided over by the Plains Wang's wife Ma, who is the Ma nobleman of the Filial Piety Garden.

This noble horse, although he is a woman, Liu Xian is estimated to be also a capable person. Because she did not die until the eleventh year of Jian'an, that is, in 206, the state of the king of the plains was abolished by Emperor Huan of the first emperor.

This shows that even if it is the current Han turmoil or the later war, it does not have much impact on her, and she is still alive and well.

It's just that Liu Xian also understands that the uncle of the King of Plains is gone, and there are no descendants, so it's impossible to say whether this Ma Guiren can recognize him, the nephew who suddenly appeared, not to mention that Liu Xian is still charged with a crime after rebellion.

As a last resort, Liu Xian will not easily take refuge in this noble horse.

As for the five women, in history, except for Liu Hua, the eldest daughter of the first emperor, the eldest princess of Yang'an, there are more accounts, and the rest basically only have the simplest records, just one sentence, which year they were named princesses, and who they married, and there is no record of even marrying. It can be said that it is not known where they are now, whether they are alive or not.

Before her mother died, she asked Liu Xian to go to these women for help, but Liu Xian thought that it would not work. It's all some female streamers, what can they do to help him?

Therefore, Liu Xian always felt that he still had to rely on himself.

Only when you have the power in your hands can you talk about anything else.

Next, while Liu Xian and Liang Ji were drinking, they analyzed and summarized some things that should be done now.

During this period, Zheng Bo also roughly counted the remaining money and food in the Liu Mansion.

The first is money.

Money is both copper money and five plant money.

Liu Xian also remembers that he had read some academic historical research articles published by some history enthusiasts in his later life.

At this time, a penny is a copper coin. And the value of a copper coin is actually equivalent to more than the triangle of later generations.

Of course, this is just a normal situation. Now that the Han Dynasty is in turmoil, prices are soaring, and the purchasing power of copper coins has dropped by more than ten times.

In a very simple case, a piece of baked dough cake originally only needed one or two pennies. At present, a piece of roasted noodle cake can not be bought for 20 yuan, and even, in this Julu County, it is not said to be 20 yuan, even 100 yuan may not be able to buy it. Because where is the food for the people now?

According to Zheng Bo's statistics, the money hidden in Liu's Mansion is only about one million. One million copper coins, equivalent to more than 300,000 in later generations, this is indeed a lot of money.

Don't wonder why Liu Mansion still has so much money, in fact, Liu Xian's father, Liu Kui, was really not short of money during his lifetime, and when he was demoted to the king of Xuantao, he also planned to take out 50 million yuan to bribe the officials of the court to say good things for him in front of the first emperor Huan. In other words, Liu Kui's family wealth is definitely more than the 50 million money, or even more.

Moreover, he didn't give away the 50 million money that was going to be taken out, that is to say, the money has always been in Liu Kui's hands.

Of course, it is impossible for all this money to be handed over to Liu Xian's mother Liang, who at that time, the Liang family had not officially married into the Liu family. But later, Liu Kui ordered someone to send money to the Liang family, and built this Liu Mansion. Come to think of it, this money should have been sent at that time.

Liu Xian estimated that there would definitely be millions at that time. As for other money, when it was raided, it either fell into the imperial treasury or fell into the hands of those traitors who confiscated the Liu family.

But millions of money, after more than ten years of only incoming and out, and most of it was taken away by the Yellow Turban thieves and officers and soldiers not long ago, there are still millions left, which has made Liu Xian feel a little surprised.

But this money is useless, because what is needed now is not money, but food, and at the moment, there is no way to buy food in Julu County, or even the entire Jizhou region.

Of course, in addition to copper coins, there are actually some gold and silver ornaments, as well as some valuable paintings and calligraphy, etc., which can be exchanged for money. But it's the same thing, no matter how much money you change, it's useless, the key is to have food.

"What about the grain? How much food is left in our Liu Mansion? After listening to Zheng Bo's report in a low voice in his ear, Liu Xian asked about his own grain reserves.

"yes, what we need now is food, how much more?" Liang Ji also asked a little anxiously.

Several other villagers also looked at Uncle Zheng with blank eyes.
