"Actually...... Captain Gu mentioned this idea to me last night, and I agree with it, the key is that in that era, the feasibility is really no problem! ”

"Haha!"

"Great!"

"Hey, hey! Listen quietly! ”

"According to the information I checked in the past, to buy a maid in the Ming Dynasty, the basis for pricing is nothing more than those few, first of all, the age of the person, the second is whether the body is healthy, then the skill level of the female celebrity, and finally the level of appearance. Oh, this refers to the mainstream social consciousness, and those high-ranking officials and nobles are not quite the same.

However, as an ordinary well-off and Zhongkang family, buying a maid is indeed a concubine in disguise, and there are only two purposes: one is to increase the labor force for the family, and the other is to pass on the ancestry, so the index ranking of the evaluation of girls is slightly different from our era......"

"It's really different from our era, let's only look at the appearance......"

"That's right, it's all a bunch of Yan dogs."

"Shh

"Quiet!"

At this time, someone in the crowd of high school students glared at the few people who had a small meeting with dissatisfaction.

“...... As for the price, it is basically between four or five taels of silver to thirty taels, which is generally acceptable to everyone. ”

"It's not expensive!"

"Cheap!"

"Shh

So, at the end of the Ming Dynasty and the beginning of the Qing Dynasty, what was the current currency of one tael of silver? I have used the rice price crop price benchmark to calculate, probably converted to the end of the Ming Dynasty one tael of silver equivalent to the current currency value, of course, because the historical data is not necessarily accurate, there must be some errors, but can also be roughly calculated.

The price of rice in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties fluctuated greatly in the harvest and apology years, but basically, about two taels of leveled silver in that historical period could buy about one stone of rice.

At that time, there were at least seventy-five kilograms of one stone, so the currency that you bought seventy-five kilograms of ordinary rice at the current price of rice was equivalent to the purchasing power of two taels of silver at that time. Do the math yourselves.

If calculated according to the annual living expenses of ordinary families in that era, those with more than a dozen taels of silver a year are considered low-end well-off families, those with an annual income of twenty or thirty taels are well-off families with no worries about food and clothing, and those with an annual income of fifty taels to one hundred taels are above Zhongkang.

Therefore, if you buy a maid, the cheap one is equivalent to the income of a well-off family for three months to half a year, and the high-end one is equivalent to the income of a well-off family for one year. In this way, do you have a perceptual understanding of the prices and living standards of that era? ”

Zhu Beiguo paused when he said this, and asked questions to everyone.

"I seem to have some emotional understanding......

"Well, that is to say, buying a cheap maid is equivalent to buying a daughter-in-law in a poor country now, one or two thousand yuan each. What about the expensive one, it is equivalent to raising a junior in the city, 100,000 yuan a year is almost enough, right? ”

"Why 100,000?"

"Because an annual income of 100,000 yuan is considered a well-off family now, right?"

"100,000 isn't enough, right? According to the current level of price rise, there is no 300,000 that can't be stopped! ”

"! If you are as handsome as I am, and lose 35,000 yuan, my sister will pounce on me, believe it or not? ”

"Believe you, big-headed ghost!"

"If I can pounce on you, I have to see an ophthalmologist!"

"yes, how bad is that look?"

"What do you mean by poor eyes? That's called not knowing the goods! ”

"Okay, okay, you're okay......"

"You know what!"

"Hey, hey! Let's get down to business! All in all, that's a drop in the bucket for us! ”

"That's right! For this cost, for our per capita property of 100 kilograms of gold and 1 ton of silver, it's a piece of cake, right, Brother Zhu? ”

At this time, Zhu Beiguo saw that Cao Limei was no longer looking here, but was having a small meeting with the ladies, and he didn't know what the ladies were talking about, thinking that he must express his determination to the girl tonight, and he couldn't let the girl be confused, so he raised his hand and waved it to make everyone quiet, and continued to say loudly:

"I'm definitely not going to buy a maid! I'm very unaccustomed to this kind of buying and selling marriage, and I was very reluctant to even go on a blind date at the beginning, not to mention this kind of **naked buying and selling marriage, um, but the situation here is different, in fact, what you just said is right, we are indeed rich, and in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, the world of war and chaos, human life was not so valuable, as far as the research data I had at hand showed that in the Huguang area at that time, the minimum to buy a maid was only about three or four taels of silver, and the most could range from twenty taels to fifty taels. Of course, if you want to buy Dong Xiaowan and Li Xiangjun's Qin Huai Bayan level, it's another matter. ”

Before Zhu Beiguo's words fell, a burst of laughter suddenly broke out in the restaurant.

Among them, a few buddies hooked their shoulders and backs with lewd faces, laughing in the corner, and some people gathered together to whisper with an interested look, and more of them slapped the table and applauded and whistled, sweeping away the original dull atmosphere, and the venue became lively.

Obviously, at this moment, Zhu Beiguo has already talked about the rise, and he went on to say:

"But! Everyone, don't think about Qin Huai Bayan, first, the time we traveled through can't be determined, and the error is fifty years! If it was decades earlier, people had not yet been born, and decades later, either everyone had already died, or they were old.

The second is that the voyage to the mainland is too far, and it seems unrealistic to drive the Pride from here to Nanjing, Yangzhou, thousands of miles, and people are tired and tired, right? And at that time, it was probably not very peaceful, and there were many pirates on the sea, in case we met a ruthless character like Zheng Zhilong, there would be a lot of trouble, in fact, we were not afraid of them, but we had to think about how to deal with the aftermath in the future, right? What's more, in the early stage, we still took the principle of making a fortune in silence, and it was the right idea to develop in a low-key manner, accumulate strength for a period of time, and then break out.

Therefore, in order to make it less troublesome, I am responsible here to say that the best plan is to directly sail the ship to some ports in the South Seas to buy the women trafficked by human traffickers, uh, the little girls. ”

"Don't! You have to give it to a few Han girls to look good, Brother Zhu! ”

Zhu Beiguo was talking eloquently, but was interrupted by a few high school students below. When they heard this, they chimed in, saying:

"Besides, most of those traffickers sell black people, I don't want black girls!"

"Indigenous people can't do it, and it's not easy to communicate with each other because of the language barrier."

"Are you serious about communicating badly? Will body language be? ”

"The white girl is okay, right?"

"I heard that there were Arabs who sold European girls to West Asia in that era."

"Do you want an Indian half-black girl?"

"Uh, that's enough to look at!"

"Brother Zhu! It's still the best Han girl! ”

"Or a Japanese girl?"

"Korean girls are also good, although there are many big pie faces."

"Brother Zhu, your old man is a full man, but you don't know how hungry a man is hungry!"

"Yes, you always have Han girls, and it's our turn to be black girls! Damn, why are you gagging me, did I say something wrong?! ”

"Hey! Everybody! Don't get me wrong, who said that traffickers don't sell Han girls? The era we want to cross is the end of the Ming Dynasty and the beginning of the Qing Dynasty! Do you know how many Han people only ran out of the south and southeast coasts in that era? According to the research of historical scholars, during the turn of the Ming and Qing dynasties, tens of millions of Han people fled to Nanyang on the mainland! Zhu Beiguo found that there was a possibility of burning himself immediately between the words, so he hurriedly said it again, and sure enough, he kept the topic away from him.

"Holy! Are there so many Han people coming out? ”

"It seems that there are still Han people who are unwilling to be slaves of the country."

"It's all backbone, but it's a pity that they've all been annihilated in history, it's a pity."

"If this group is used by me, it can simply dominate the world!"

"So! As I said earlier, it is not impossible to gather overseas Chinese to oppose the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty! ”
