Although he would soon die without a place to be buried, the head of the Shangyuan County squad did not know that he was about to face such a tragic fate, so he was working very hard to direct the officials to maintain order in an attempt to save the bad impression. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

And there weren't many people who came to exchange rice today, so the order at the scene was quite good. Ordinary people lined up in five fairly neat lines waiting to exchange rice.

In fact, there are pros and cons to exchanging treasure money for rice now. The advantage is that now is the season of the autumn levy, and both the citizens and merchants in the city know about it, so they all believe that the Ming Dynasty has enough food to deal with the exchange of treasure money. After all, the common people do not know how much treasure money is issued now.

The disadvantage is also that it is now the autumn harvest season, the price of grain is low, and the consistent money near the capital is enough to exchange for six stone of grain, and in the early spring it can be exchanged for four stones, so the price of the treasure banknote will stabilize at the level of the consistent money for six guan banknotes.

But I don't care about it, and in the first half of next year, I don't know how much the treasure money will depreciate, and Yun Xi, who is not from a history class, can't remember such detailed information in his previous life.

Today's exchange was obviously very successful, and the people at the back of the queue were not afraid that they would not have the mood of rice when it was late; Even when the exchange stopped in the evening, the people who didn't make it were just complaining that they had run for nothing today and would have to come again tomorrow.

In the next few days, Yun Xi mainly followed Lao Zhu to learn how to review the folds. Lao Zhu didn't have time to answer Yun Xi in detail every day and every time like on the 30th, so he instead transcribed a copy of each recital and handed it to Yun Xi, asking him to read it for himself and think about what to do, and then copy a copy of Lao Zhu's Zhu Pi to him and let him compare it himself. What's the problem, every night when I have dinner and the time from half an hour to an hour after that is Lao Zhu's teaching time.

At the same time, Yun Xi will take time out of the palace every day to visit the temporary exchange place, the time is different, sometimes at noon, sometimes at night. But overall, it's always very orderly. Of course, that team leader is no longer there. Although Jin Yiwei said that he would not take the initiative to collect the case records of such a small person, it didn't take half a day to find out some of his secret activities, and then found a victim and sued him, and that person is currently locked up in the prison of the Criminal Department.

Of course, Yun Xi later felt that he was too impulsive at that time. One is that he should not use Jinyiwei, that is not the institution he should use now; The second is that you shouldn't almost personally go into battle to deal with that team leader, and lose your identity. But things have already been done, and they can only go on. Fortunately, Lao Zhu also hated these grassroots officials very much, and he didn't care.

Yun Xi sees that there is no problem with the exchange in the capital now, except for the increase in the number of people who come to exchange from the first to the second to the third day of the new year, it has remained basically unchanged since the fourth day of the new year, and the number of people has never exceeded the bottom line set by Lao Zhu, it seems to be successful, of course, the rumors of Jinyiwei have also played a certain role.

Yunxi is now worried about things in Suzhou and Hangzhou. It's already the sixth year of junior high school, and in addition to receiving a recital from Gao Xiang and Zhuo Jing on the first day of junior high school, there has been no new recital in the past two days, so there must be something wrong, right? Yun Hee thought.

There was no chaos in Hangzhou, everything was fine; But something went wrong in Suzhou. Originally, at the beginning, Suzhou, like Hangzhou, was going on smoothly, because the common people could see the ships transporting grain into the warehouse, and the enthusiasm for exchanging grain was not high. But since the fourth day of the new year, it has changed, a large number of ordinary people have flocked to the exchange place to exchange treasure money for food, and the amount of grain has doubled, exceeding the red line drawn by Lao Zhu, Zhuo Jing is quite anxious.

============================================================

On September 30, Chashan Island (Sheshan Island not far from the mouth of the Yangtze River).

In the secluded harbor of such a desolate island, there were more than a dozen ships of various sizes moored, and although it was evident that their owners were very protective of them, they still looked old.

In one of the cabins of one of the largest ships, a dozen people sat around and were discussing something. I only heard a man about forty years old, with a thin but sturdy body, say: "We don't need to get involved in this matter, it won't do us any good, anyway, even if we buy food, it is difficult to bring it to the sea in large quantities, and it is not the same as now." ”

And a man about thirty years old, powerful and handsome-looking man said in a low voice: "Why is it useless? Can transferring grain from one's own warehouse be the same as selling grain? Moreover, this time, if the Zhu family's plan is not bankrupt, they will also pay more costs. ”

"They obviously want to maintain the credit of the treasure banknote, but it may be that there is not enough gold and silver in the treasury, or Zhu Yuanzhang is too stingy and only uses grain to exchange, which gives us the opportunity to make trouble."

"At the beginning, Zhu Ming fought repeatedly with King Cheng's army in Suzhou, and the people died six or seven, and then levied heavy taxes in Suzhou, and the hearts of the people of Suzhou were not on Zhu Ming, but on King Cheng. Most of our people are from Suzhou, and they are not on the wanted list, it is easy to sneak into Suzhou, but they can spread rumors and lure people to exchange a large amount of food, so that Zhu Ming will spend a lot of money, if only he could ruin his plan. ”

As he spoke, he secretly dreamed about it, but immediately came back to his senses and knew that this hope was very slim.

This group of people is a group of pirates who are active in the East China Sea, but their origins are different from ordinary pirates, because they are Zhang Shicheng's old subordinates. In the twenty-seventh year of Mengyuan Zhizheng (1367 AD), the Ming Dynasty captured Zhang Shicheng's old nest Pingjiang, Zhang Shicheng committed suicide and died, and the rest of the army collapsed. One of them fled to the sea and became pirates. And it never fell after that. The King Cheng in their words just now was referring to Zhang Shicheng.

The man in his thirties who spoke just now was the son of Li Bosheng, a general under Zhang Shicheng, Li Jiqian, who became a big boss after his father's death a few years ago. He hated Da Ming bitterly, but he had no way to retaliate against Zhu Ming's regime. This time I finally have a chance to make trouble, how can I let it go.

The other people also hated Zhu Ming, so except for the old man who was serious, the others felt that there was no risk, and they could add a little blockage to Zhu Ming, so they unanimously agreed.

After discussing the matter, everyone had nothing else to do, so the meeting was adjourned. Li Jiqian also got out of the cabin, wanting to go down to the land to relax. This time, they came here to sell their stolen goods on the mainland in exchange for some daily necessities. But Li Jiqian is also a pirate leader, a famous figure on the Ming list, of course he can't go to the mainland, so he stays on this small island.

At this time, he heard someone say, "Big brother, why did you only come out now?" Is there anything big happening please? ”

As soon as Li Jiqian heard the voice, he knew who it was. He looked back, and sure enough, it was his little sister Li Sha'er calling him. His sister Li Sha'er is only nine years old this year, twenty years younger than him, and he has no daughter, and he has always regarded her as a daughter.

Because she is still young and still a girl, Li Jiqian will not tell him this, but just said: "Girls, what do you care about this." ”

Li Sha'er snorted and said, "If you don't say it, I know, I must be discussing how to deal with Zhu Ming again." ”

Li Jiqian scratched the back of his head, they all hated the matter of Daming The entire gang of people, whether it was Zhang Shicheng's descendants of the old department or not, everyone knew that it was not surprising that Li Sha'er had heard of it.

Li Sha'er said: "Although I am young, I have heard my brothers and sisters talk on weekdays. I don't know what my hometown is, but I've been to Ryukyu and know how normal children live. It would be nice if he could become a child of an ordinary family, even if he was poor, he didn't have to hide from XC all day long (to escape from Zhu Ming's navy), and he could live a stable life. ”

Li Jiqian had never heard his sister say such a reasonable thing on weekdays, and he was moved in an instant. But he immediately strengthened his mind and said to his sister: "Zhu Ming has a deep blood feud with us, how can we forget the hatred and return to Zhu Ming to be an ordinary person." ”

Then he hurried out of the boat without waiting for his sister to speak. Li Sha'er was still young and couldn't catch up with him, so she stomped her feet on the boat angrily.
