Chapter 222: The Food Standard
The people of Daqi, who had plenty of resources, looked at the mountains of grain piled up in their yards, and they almost couldn't close their mouths with smiles.
What's more, since the grain was brought back, he directly lay down next to the two bags and slept, not even daring to close his eyes, as if as long as he closed his eyes, the grain would disappear from his eyes.
Until I couldn't hold on anymore and fell asleep next to the grain pile.
And the chaff that was abandoned by everyone in the threshing floor, Yang Hao did not have the slightest intention of discarding it, these things were ground into powder, and they could also be used as food.
The so-called eating bran pharyngeal vegetables refers to the bran of grains, but in addition to filling the stomach, this thing has little nutritional value.
These things, Yang Hao naturally did not leave them for his subjects to eat, with so much fresh food, if he ate this thing again, the civilians had to rebel.
These things he was prepared to leave to captured captives in the future, and as a prisoner he could only enjoy this treatment.
Yang Hao will not engage in any massacre, unless someone is stubborn and determined to oppose him, and he doesn't mind letting the enemy see his ruthlessness again.
However, soon, the people of Chang'an City were depressed to find that there was a lot of food, but it was piled up at home, which attracted the attention of thieves.
These thieves bite through the bottom sacks of grain and steal the fruits of their labor with impunity.
How can this kind of thing be endured, and a battle between humans and rats was staged in Chang'an City.
It's just that these sneaky little things make human beings play around, making people angry and anxious.
It wasn't until a few days later that a new decree was introduced.
The people are still very concerned about the government decrees, and according to past experience, the introduction of new policies in Daqi is beneficial to them.
Officials from the city's communities read the new policy to the people.
The content of the new policy is mainly related to food purchases.
With so much food in the hands of civilians that it can't be eaten and spoiled, Yang Hao feels that this will be punished by God.
On the other hand, the current coins of Daqi are grain standards, and there must be enough grain reserves in the barn.
Although there are already hundreds of thousands of catties of grain stored in the granary through taxes, these stocks are simply not enough.
Only by turning the grain in the hands of the common people into copper coins can the economy of Daqi not collapse.
And the price of the purchased grain is also very fair, Yang Hao is not a black-hearted capitalist, he will not lower the price, and finally force the people to have no food.
Under the explanation of the officials, the people of Chang'an City understood one thing, that is, the situation of bartering goods in Daqi from now on, as long as it is discovered, it will be punished.
Only by using copper coins can they exchange for what they want, and where does the copper money come from, it is the grain in their hands, the Daqi government uses copper coins to exchange for food in their hands, and then they use the copper coins in their hands to buy some necessities of life.
At first, the people were reluctant, and some of them did not trust this way of trading.
The main reason for this idea is that the copper coins of Daqi were not issued on a large scale, most of the copper coins were in the hands of officials and soldiers, and although the people had a little copper coins in their hands, they were not enough to support their lives, and the main mode of trading was barter.
Under the explanation of the officials, and Yang Hao's character was taken out as a guarantee, the civilians reluctantly believed the words of the Daqi government.
I believe that although I believe it, but no one will take out all the food and sell it, no one is stupid, they all plan to observe for a while, if this model is not feasible, then they have some food to keep alive.
When the first farmer carried his grain to the household to sell and got the first copper coin, more people took out the grain from their home to sell one after another.
With the continuous flow of copper coins into the hands of ordinary people, driven by a few grocery stores, the mode of money trading has gradually penetrated into everyone's life.
When the people found that the copper coins in their hands were really more convenient than bartering, the credit of the copper coins had been established.
As he ate home-grown rice and boiled rice, his face was full of excitement.
Although his mother is the only one in the family, this year's harvest is no worse than others.
When the family had surplus food, they took the copper money they had sold and went to the grocery store to cut a large piece of meat, but the meat was much more expensive than rice.
Although it hurt a little, he gritted his teeth and bought it.
He invited Ren Kang to his home and shared the joy of the harvest with him.
Although the meals were not as rich as Ren Kang's usual meals, Ren Kang was indeed extremely happy to eat, and here he experienced the feeling that he had never experienced before.
Compared to the palace with the still family, he prefers this kind of warm little home.
The mother looked at the three of them talking and laughing, and her wrinkled face showed a long-lost smile.
"The best meal I've ever had."
Ren Kang said with emotion.
He smiled and said: "If you think it's delicious, you can come to my house often in the future, now that the tribe has a bumper harvest, every family has some margin, and the good days have really arrived." ”
"Alas, I used to think that only the courage of the warriors could make the clansmen rich, but now it seems that I want to be bad, I really admire your leader."
Ren Kang smiled bitterly.
At this time, the fern craned his neck and said, "The leader is a god, so he is naturally powerful." ”
The two couldn't help but laugh when they heard this, they naturally knew that Yang Hao was not a god, just a mortal with the same flesh as them.
He touched the fern's head and said, "You eat well, and when there is more cloth in the future, my brother will buy you a piece of cloth to make a new dress." ”
When the fern heard this, she smiled almost from ear to ear, and busily pulled the rice grains into her mouth.
Ren Kang looked at the warm picture of the brother and sister, and sighed in his heart.
"Brother Hou, you should have also heard that Ji Qi may attack Daqi after the autumn."
He snorted coldly, his expression a little hideous.
"How could it be that I haven't heard of it, it has basically spread in the school, and since Xiao Qi'er dares to come, the leader will definitely cut off his head."
"However, Ji Qi's strength is far more than that of Daqi, if Daqi can't beat it, I hope that Brother Hou can escape with me to Youtuo Clan, and then I will treat him as a brother."
I looked at Ren Kang, and said in a deep voice: "No need, if it really comes to that time, I will pick up arms and fight with them, this is my home, Daqi is gone, our hope is gone, Kang Guiren, don't you understand, Daqi gave us hope to live, only this year, I know that this is the life of people." ”
Seeing that Ren Kang still wanted to persuade again, he raised his hand and said: "I have already thought about it, Kang Guiren doesn't need to say it anymore, I believe that the army of Daqi will protect us, come and let's continue to eat, it will be cold if we don't eat again." ”
