Qin system, ten miles and one pavilion. Li does not refer to the 300 steps, but refers to the 'five families are neighbors, and the five neighbors are the li'. Ten miles and one pavilion, that is, two hundred and fifty households and one pavilion, ten pavilions and one township, one township should have two thousand five hundred households. Anlu is not a big county, there are 45 pavilions under the jurisdiction of the county, and there are more than 11,000 households in the county.

The pavilion has a pavilion chief, a pavilion marquis, a pavilion Zuo, a pavilion father, a pavilion pawn, and a thief, and each pavilion has more than a dozen people; There are townships on the pavilion, and the townships have township ranks, townships, wanderers, and dozens of people. This is the grassroots Tingxiang organization of the Qin State, because Anlu is a border county, and there are border guards sent by Xianyang, the entire border is blocked.

Zi Chengsheng followed Ji Hei and the others around the mountains and forests, and he couldn't tell the difference between southeast and west, and it was not until dark that he came to a house in the barking of dogs. There are people inside and outside who are responsible for letting out the wind, and there are people inside and outside to pick up the goods, and after entering the house, I can hear the laughter of children from time to time.

"Rest here tonight, and take a boat into the city tomorrow." Under the flames of the pine branches, Ji Hei took Zi Chengsheng to an empty house. "It's a poor place, don't be surprised."

"What's so strange, one room and one bed are enough." Zi Chengsheng thought that he was going to sleep on the mountain tonight, but he didn't expect Ji Hei to be able to find him here before dark.

"Childe?" After Ji Hei said goodbye, he took out the embarrassment from his entourage's arms. Ordinary people only eat two meals, and at this time, dinner is early, and they can only eat dry food.

"Who's coming?" In another thatched hut in Liju, under the burning of pine branches, all the windows were sealed, and Ji Hei and the others were drinking with Lizheng. Even at night, even if Zi Chengsheng was wearing the clothes of ordinary people, Li Zheng also noticed that something was wrong.

"Hehe," Ji Hei smiled and said, "He claims to be Zi Chengsheng." ”

"Sub-multiplication...... Victory? Surprise flashed across Leemasa's wrinkled face, and he spilled half of the wine he was holding. That was more than twenty years ago. Li Zhengliang said for a long time. His voice grew a little older, and he drank half of the wine.

"Please tell me." More than 20 years ago, Ji Hei was only seven or eight years old, and he had heard of this clan many times, but he didn't know the details.

"There's nothing to say." Rimasa only drank wine, and he rustled with his few remaining teeth.

"The other side of the mountain is all owned by the Dou clan, and the Mu clan has moved to ...... Moved to ....... Except for Ji Hei, the others were not interested in Zichengsheng, they were more willing to talk about what they had heard.

"Koto." Someone added. The uncle who spoke hurriedly nodded: "Yes, Jiangdong, I have moved to Jiangdong." ”

"Really?" After pouring a few lamps, Li Zheng was already a little drunk and hazy. "The Dou clan is sealed with you, or it is not the blessing of our common people."

"Why?" Li Zheng refused to say anything about the Zicheng clan, and Ji Hei had no choice but to give up, but he said that Dou Shi was sealed with the blessing of the non-common people, and this common people obviously did not refer to others.

Under the rule of the Qin State, the law was taught and the officials were the teachers. The common people only know the officials, but an elderly person like Li Zheng is like a treasurer when it comes to the Chu clans. Long gave birth to nine sons, the Chu clans are good and bad, strong and weak, their stories are often the talk of the common people, and An Lu is the fief of the Dou family, and Li Zheng grew up hearing the story of the Dou clan since he was a child.

After pouring a few glasses of wine in one go, when Ji Hei was about to get impatient, Li Zhengcai said: "Dou Clan, after Chu Ruoao's Clan, his ancestor was sealed in Anlu. The first king of Zhuang killed Ruo Ao's family, and Anlu was the county. I heard that the king of Chu restored the Zhu clan to the counties, and the Dou clan also transported salt and iron to Anlu, or had the intention of attacking the old Ying. ”

"Attacking the old Ying?" Ji Hei choked violently.

"If not, why do you want to lose salt and iron to Anlu?" Rizheng asked. "A bucket of salt, the official price is twenty-five dollars; A pair of rakes, the official price is sixty yuan; What is the price of your salt and iron? ”

"My salt and iron," Ji Hei didn't understand anything, but he knew how to buy and sell. "A bucket of salt sells for six dollars, and a pair of plows sells for fifteen dollars."

"It's cheap." Rimasa drank again. "Dou's salt and iron are transported to the old Ying, and the picture is not small."

"That day, when I saw Chu Pawn, they were all very good, and they treated me very kindly." Ji Hei's younger brother Shu Qian talked about last month's incident again. The brothers couldn't help but go to Chu Realm once, and they lived happily in Suixian, and they also saw a lot of the world.

"If I ask you to wait, I will naturally treat you very kindly." Rizheng smiled.

"Dare to ask Father Zhong, is it better to rule under the Dou clan or under the rule of Great Qin?" Ji Hei didn't know why such a question popped up in his mind, he didn't say anything about Chu State, Chu State was a very distant thing.

"I don't know." After King Chuzhuang, the Dou clan declined, and Li Zheng did not live in that era. "I only know that there are few wars under the rule of the Chu State, and the military endowment has not been paid for many years. Under the rule of Great Qin, there were five expeditions in ten years, and the law was harsh and the punishment was heavy.......

There is no need to elaborate on how to do it under the rule of the Qin State, Ji Hei and the others have a deep understanding that they will embark on the road of smuggling salt and iron, and it is all thanks to the shield and armor.

Shield: 384 coins; Armor: One thousand three hundred and forty-four dollars. These two are the most common punishments, if you have money to pay money, you don't have money to go to the government to be a subordinate concubine, eat six yuan a day from the government, eat eight yuan a day from your own work, and use the money obtained from labor to atone for your sins. and for a shield thou shalt toil for sixty-four days (eat thyself forty-eight days); He shall work for two hundred and twenty-four days (and eat oneself one hundred and sixty-eight days).

Ji Hei is also an ordinary family, in addition to grain and straw a year, plus five or six thousand yuan for weaving, one shield can still be tolerated, that time the county magistrate sentenced his father to one armor and one shield, so he could only watch his father enter the official mansion as a subordinate minister. After his father left, he never came back, but the young man in the county sent someone to the house to ask for his father's unredeemed 156 yuan, and another 120 unspeakable money.

This experience made Ji Hei know that money is very important, and later, he heard that if there is money, it can be redeemed, which requires five thousand three hundred and seventy-six dollars; and redemption: seven thousand six hundred and eighty dollars; You can also ransom: nine thousand nine hundred and eighty-four dollars; You can also redeem the palace: twelve thousand two hundred and eighty-eight dollars; ……； It can even be ransomed: twenty-three thousand and forty dollars.

Ji Hei hates money, but it is precisely because he hates money that he has to tie his head to the waistband of his pants and work hard to earn money. Li Zheng's words brought up his hatred for money again, and he drank heavily and fell asleep dizzily.

The next day, he was woken up by his younger brother, and then he carried the sacks of salt and iron, stepped on the cool ridges of the summer morning, and hurried to the river. Zi Chengsheng followed closely all the way, and when he was almost to the river, he followed more closely, because he saw a little soap-clothed man with a sword standing not far away. Fortunately, the little official didn't look at him all the time, and he exhaled heavily when he got on the boat.

"Dangerous!" Zi Chengsheng and his entourage were covered in sweat, which was tired and frightened.

"Huh." Ji Hei chuckled, he didn't say much, just asked his younger brother to paddle right away.
