Chapter 170: This is really a young man's world

Zhang Guoan's request for 3,000 boys and girls was purely forced to be helpless, and Liuqiu Island really needed to accumulate reserve forces. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

The proportion of the population on the island is now in its golden age, and it is basically the level of strong men and women, and most of them are quite qualified laborers.

However, as the Quiet Master said, in terms of demographics, we lack the momentum for sustainable development in the next two or three decades, and we are still cultivating it ourselves...... There are too few children.

Wang Defa's family asked, "Can't you buy children in Da Song now?" ”

Zhang Guoan, the owner of the island, said: "We may have bought all of them, and we haven't bought one for a month...... Now the northern region is secretly buying only five or six a month. ”

I can only ask Da Song for it...... The Tatar bandit group can ask for it at every turn, and so can we!

Besides, we are also serving your Great Song Dynasty formation, hehe.

Sure enough, Pingzhang Jia Rudao agreed at that time, and in vain Zhang Guoan, the owner of the island wrote half a letter to explain why there were 3,000 boys and girls, and swore that not one would be injured.

Now it's half a year, but in fact, it will take a little longer in the end, and you can also select outstanding elites from them, and then you can forcibly move their parents here because of these elites, there are ways.

There are rumors throughout the Song Dynasty...... The crystal ball is definitely used to change luck, with the more crystal balls accumulated in the Great Song Palace, the life of the people of the Great Song Dynasty is getting better and better, and even the farmers' harvest is increasing year by year.

The prices in the market are cheaper, the number of commercial goods has increased, and the most important thing is that it seems that the money on hand is far more relaxed than before...... Interestingly, labor costs have also increased!

The person who does the work for others dies happy...... Of course, the same is the same, those who hire people to do work are unhappy, but if the money is not raised, they can't hire people, and the happy can only be the majority of people.

The current national fortunes of the Great Song Dynasty have also improved...... Although the Tatar bandit group was still in the north, and the "Liuqiu Times" said that they were gathering armaments and horses, they had no plans to go south, and without war, the common people's days would be stable.

Everything is back to comfort!

But some people want to be like those big families, and they still have to save money for a while to use the good things that are produced by the upper class.

At this time, there were more and more gold, silver and copper coins produced on Liuqiu Island, and it is said that some of them found the silver mountain, which is still according to the "Liuqiu Times", as if there are not only gold mountains in the north and west of Liuqiu Island, but also copper and silver mountains!

However, the messages were not clearly written, and the directions were vague...... Of course, after others read it, they can understand it when they think about it, and maybe they don't want to tell the clear place.

The purpose of the banknotes is to promote the issuance of banknotes by making them exchangeable...... Of course, their products have made it possible to promote the flow of banknotes smoothly, but at present, there are some difficulties in the circulation of large-denomination banknotes, and the desired number has not been reached.

The Great Song Dynasty government was afraid that their copper coins would be used by others, and strictly forbade the export of copper coins, and more than a few copper coins were killed, and their understanding of currency was still in a baby state, so of course they did not object to other people's gold, silver and copper coins could also be used in their own countries, and they also thought that the flow of currency saved them a lot of things and helped to solve the money shortage.

Well, this situation made Zhang Guoan and the other three happy, and if the officials of the Great Song Dynasty wanted to really understand monetary theory, they would have to wait for a long time...... This period of time will be the most comfortable time for Liuqiu, really, it's so cool.

However, under the arrangement of well-intentioned people, Liuqiu did not maliciously play the predatory function of currency, which was the level of drying up and fishing.

On the contrary, they also carefully imported appropriate luxury goods into the Great Song market, and also took the initiative to reduce prices, striving to let the large households bear the side effects of the circulation of the currency in the Great Song Dynasty...... But you can't grab too much, and you can't rush it.

Therefore, Zhang Guoan, the owner of the island, mentioned in the letter that Liuqiu Qian Bank could provide interest-free loans to some ports in the Great Song Dynasty to help them dredge the ports, strengthen the port infrastructure, and also strengthen the leveling of some roads.

These are conducive to the construction of the circulation of commodities in the Great Song Dynasty, and at the same time to the people's livelihood------ the speed of transportation of commodities in the Great Song Dynasty is too slow, especially in some areas that produce important raw materials.

In this way, although the loan is interest-free, it brings benefits to three parties.

So, it's a great idea to kill three birds with one stone.

Due to the huge amount, Pingzhang Jia seemed to have finished reading it, and his eyebrows jumped------ such a large amount of money!

When he saw this, he immediately asked, "Are you offering me the kind of gold, silver and copper coins you have in the Great Song Dynasty?!" ”

If that's the case, then the profit is too heavy, and they will have such good intentions? And for the time being, I can't see any benefit to them------ could it be that they want a title or something?

Of course, Pingzhang Jia seemed to say good words to the ambassador who asked for it, if it was true, it would be a good thing!

The ambassador said: "What the owner of my family Zhang means is that the interest-free loan in the name of Liuqiu coins will be repaid in five years, and at the same time, the engineering equipment and raw materials, technical services, and wages issued by the laborers will be used as the loan ------."

Not to mention that Pingzhang Jia seems to be a smart person, although he has never heard of such a loan, but the Liuqiu ambassador spoke very slowly, and he spoke clearly and clearly, and Pingzhang Jia seemed to understand after a few turns in his heart.

He smiled at the time and said: "This is a good thing that is beneficial to Liuqiu------ to say fairly, you have sold your own goods, I have built the road and port in the Great Song Dynasty, and at that time, the financial resources of commercial loans will roll in, and it will not be difficult to installment in five years, not bad." ”

The ambassador was overjoyed, and he was really happy when he dealt with smart people.

But he knew that Liuqiu Island would also have an advantage, that is, it would further consolidate the influence of his Liuqiu coin, and it would be more able to be tied to the economic development of the Great Song Dynasty.

In fact, there is another thing, Zhang Guoan, the owner of the island, proposed that the father-in-law of Wang Defa's family is just a small official, which is not very good-looking for Liuqiu Island, please be accommodating, it is better to go to Haizhou to be a supervisor.

After saying that, the ambassador also took out a gilded base, a crystal lampshade, and a kerosene gas lamp decorated with ivory.

He also let one of his subordinates personally operate to demonstrate.

I saw the man add kerosene to the oil pot at the base of the gas lamp, and then open the glass lampshade and tie it to the plaster nozzle.

The lampshade was made of asbestos, and then on a small tray in the gas lamp combustion chamber, a few pieces of solid alcohol were clamped with a bamboo clip, and a random wooden stick was found, and after being lit, it stretched through the round hole in the waist to ignite the solid alcohol in the tray.

At this point, the ivory pump handle is pushed and pulled to pressurize the gas lamp.

He also kept an eye on the ethanol in the tray, which had to be kept burning until it was officially ignited.

When the pressure is sufficient, the temperature of the kerosene in the copper pipes in the combustion chamber is almost preheated.

At this point, you can turn on the gas lamp smoothly.

Due to its small size, it hiss quietly------ but it is exceptionally bright, hanging on the roof of the study of Pingzhang Jia Dao, this study of 80 square meters is illuminated brightly and clearly!

The ambassador said, "There are twenty gas lamps in total, and I think Pingzhang will arrange a place for them------

Pingzhang Jia said nonchalantly: "It's just a trivial matter, you don't need such a big gift, take some back." ”

The ambassador said in his heart, I need you to be a person who advertises it widely, where can I take it back, so he resolutely refused.

After the ambassador left, Pingzhang Jia seemed to think for a long time under the bright light, and wrote down the countermeasures with a pen, it was impossible not to let the official know about this matter anyway, of course he had to prepare well------ but unfortunately the dragon body of the official family was not safe at that time.

When I heard the secret report, the official family was much better, so I went to ask for a meeting.

However, he was still patient at that time, listening to the dialogue between the official family and the legal system, and felt that this young man was becoming more and more mature, not to mention the moderation, and he really had his own opinions!

At this time, he thought of the young ambassador of Liuqiu, as well as the young Minister Hou Dongfang, and even the owner of Zhang Guoan, who was not very old, and the newly married Wang Defa's family was also not big------ this is really a young man's world. (To be continued.) )
