More and more tribes were gathered by Zag, and the Baturu tribe was getting bigger and bigger.

The tribe was large, and some problems gradually began to emerge.

Tuomu began to ask Wang Zezhi to make some requests.

He first said that tea and salt were not enough, and he hoped to give them more trade quotas, so Wang Zezhi immediately found Wang Shan to make arrangements.

When he dragged the wood away, he stopped talking, and after Wang Zezhi asked again and again, he learned that many people in the tribe did not have iron pots, and they hoped to give more places for iron tools.

Wang Zezhi has control over ironware, and the quota of ironware is also limited by tribe, which means that the clansmen of a tribe are not allowed to buy too many ironware.

This is a bit unfair, for example, those who have more money will buy more ironware, such as kitchen knives, iron pots, hoes, etc., and those with less money may not have a quota to buy a kitchen knife, and some people can't even buy a kitchen knife.

Wang Zezhi thought about it for a while, and asked Tuomu to compile the household registration of the clansmen in the tribe into a book.

According to the number of households in the tribe, he issued iron tickets to each herdsman, which could ensure that each household had iron tickets, and the herdsmen who had tickets could come to Guihua City to trade.

In this way, there is no need to worry about the uneven distribution of iron quotas.

Tuomu was overjoyed, thanked Wang Zezhi and went back to the tribe.

Today, the Baturu tribe, located in the north of the city of Guihua, has become one of the strongest tribes in the area.

Zag's heart became more and more wild, and he even mentioned to Wang Zezhi that he wanted to move the herdsmen of the Xitumut tribe.

Wang Zezhi immediately reprimanded Zag harshly and forbade him to move the Situmut Ministry.

It's good to have ambition, but if you have the strength that doesn't match your ambition, you're looking for death.

Although Wang Zezhi occupied the Naturalization City, the real master of this area was still the Xitumut Department.

If they are annoyed at this time, these people will go crazy, and even if Wang Zezhi can defend the Naturalization City, they will suffer heavy losses.

This was not the result he wanted.

Zag was reprimanded and reined in a lot, and no longer fought the idea of the Situmut tribe.

Begin to look farther afield for the scattered small tribes and bring them back.

He didn't want to cause trouble, and Wang Zezhi was a lot more relieved.

A month passed in the blink of an eye.

Wang Zezhi looked at Zag's back and sighed with emotion.

Now Zag has faintly taken on the appearance of the leader of a battalion.

Originally, Wang Zezhi was worried that he would not be able to serve as the acting battalion commander of the Tartar Battalion very well, but unexpectedly, Zag gave him a big surprise.

In addition to subduing the scattered tribes, Zag also mobilized the sergeants of the Tartar battalion, who took their families one after another.

There is a river to the south of the city of Naturalization, called the Gray River, where the families of the Tartar battalion sergeants are housed.

Since each Tartar soldier had his own small tribe, ranging from seven or eight households with a dozen or a dozen people, to dozens of families with hundreds of people, the tribes they called gathered together to form a new tribe of size comparable to that of the Baturu tribe.

Wang Zezhi named the family tribe of the Tartar camp as the Gerzhiin Humen tribe, which means family.

The Griin Humen tribe is located in the area of the Gray River.

In addition, Wang Zezhi was worried that these people would gather together to cause conflicts, so he ordered the Tartar battalion to send a hundred cavalry to patrol, and change a group of people every seven days to patrol in turn.

The first is to prevent the sergeants from favoring the small tribe to which they belong, and the second is to maintain order.

Some of these people live in great poverty, and they come to the soup kitchen almost every day to receive porridge.

Some families had a lot of cattle and sheep, so they came to the city of Guihua and began to trade with the merchants.

Among them were business-minded people who acted as middlemen between herders and merchants.

While traveling around to buy cow and sheep skin and herbs, he traded with Kannai merchants at a reasonable price.

As a result of the presence of these people, the trade in salt in the market was affected for a time.

For example, in the past, one pound of salt could be exchanged for one sheep, but now it can only be exchanged for two sheep's hind legs. A small bookstore

The price of salt is falling, but the price of tea and ironware is rising.

Even, it is difficult to exchange cattle and sheep fur for tea and ironware, and war horses must be used.

Because the price of war horses is fixed in Naturalization City, it is the only transparent and open trade.

Here, herdsmen can't sell horses at a high price, and merchants in the customs can't buy horses at a low price, and both sides feel fair.

Generally, the appraisal horse officer under Wang Shanmen is first found to confirm the quality of the horse and quote the price.

Then the herders decided whether to receive the silver to buy tea and ironware, or to exchange it directly.

In the beginning, most herders opted for direct exchange.

Because in their view, what they can see is the most real.

But as more and more herders were doing business on the grasslands, they basically figured out the prices.

As a result, there are now more and more herders using silver.

In other words, the silver of the Ming Dynasty was flowing out.

However, Wang Zezhi is not worried about this.

Because the silver in the hands of the herdsmen will eventually return to the hands of the merchants, whether it is the Shanxi merchants inside the Guan, or the Mongolian merchants outside the Guan.

Eventually, they all have to spend the money.

Immovable silver cannot produce value fission, and circulating silver has its value.

The significance of silver circulation is very important, and it starts with a story.

Once upon a time there were three poor men.

A barber, a tailor, and a shoemaker.

When they woke up in the morning, the shop was open, but the small shop of the three of them was deserted.

Because the customers saw their messy hair and beards, wrinkled and dirty shoes, and torn clothes, they felt sloppy and refused to even come in and sit down.

Under the noon sun, the three of them squatted in front of the shop and worried.

Each thought to himself: There are only two taels of silver left in their hands, and the food expenses of the family are not enough at night, what should I do?

Or the barber is smart.

He first took out a tael of silver and went to the tailor's shop, and mended the garment, and ironed it straight; Then he took out a tael of silver and went to the shoemaker, who carefully polished his shoes for him.

After cleaning up, the barber stood at the door of his shop, and the customers saw such a young man who was so energetic and clean, and they all came here to cut their hair.

Although he spent two taels of silver, it was opened.

When the tailors and shoemakers saw this, they were envious.

So the tailor first went to the barber and spent a tael of silver to cut his hair; Then he went to the shoemaker and spent the remaining tael of silver to polish the shoes.

After cleaning up, customers came to the door one after another.

When the shoemaker saw that they were all open, he decided to do the same, and first went to the barber for a tael to get his hair neat, and then went to the tailor's shop for a tael to make his clothes fit.

Finally, customers came to visit.

In the evening, the three of them got together to chat, and found that each of them had five taels of silver in their hands, but only three new customers came.

What's going on?

The three of them thought about it, and suddenly understood, and the two taels of silver that each person originally had in their hands turned around between the three of them and returned to their respective pockets.

This story illustrates that coins are symbols of the value of labor.

When silver flows in the hands of herdsmen and merchants in Kannai, the value of labor is actually flowing, and there are tangible things in it, which of course produces wealth.

Therefore, the herdsmen had silver in their hands, and Wang Ze did not worry about the outflow of silver at all.

Because Wang Zezhi still has a card in his hand, he can hold the silver in his own hands, that is, the ticket number.
