Chapter 467: Tavern Drink

***

Duan Heyu seems to have plans to live in Tokyo for a long time, and now he mixes in the homes of high-ranking officials and dignitaries every day, which can be said to be prosperous, and even became friends with sons and brothers like Zhang Yao and Su Jiagolang.

Yang Yi came out of Xingguofang, and when he passed by East Yulin Lane, he saw the three of them sitting in a building eating wine.

The flag in front of the tavern reads 'Chenjia Mandarin Fish Shop', the floor is a little old, but it is very tidy, it is a time-honored brand specializing in mandarin fish, the business is extremely prosperous, and the hall downstairs is full of customers;

Zhang Yao was the first to see Yang Yi, and immediately ran out, helping him tie the horse to the locust tree in front of the store, and said, "Uncle Yang, I haven't seen you for a few days, shouldn't you break off your friendship with my Ah Weng?" ”

Yang Yi knocked him on the back of the head, and scolded with a smile: "Xiao Yaozi, how can you talk, you and I don't have any friendship with you Ah Weng in the first place, but now we can talk about breaking up friendship?" ”

"Isn't it? I don't know how many times Uncle Yang has rubbed my family's food, and he actually said such a thing, if I let Ah Weng know, I would have to kick the door of your house. ”

"Oh, I'm so scared...... I'm afraid that your old bones can't stand the toss! ”

"Hehe, let's not talk nonsense, Uncle Yang, please hurry, it's rare to meet here, this little nephew has to put you down."

"Okay, Xiao Yaozi, I haven't seen you for a long time, but I'm a little more arrogant, yes, yes, I'll let someone inform you later."

"Don't blow it, I don't know who lifts whom, but there are three of us."

While the two were joking, Xiao Wu of the Su family and Duan Heyu also greeted him. Yang Yi was too lazy to be polite in this kind of place, so he entered the store with them after a few greetings.

As soon as she sat down, she had a blue and white cloth handkerchief tied around her waist, and a woman with a dangerous bun came up to help add chopsticks and pour wine.

In fact, they are not employees of the store, but women from good families in the neighborhood who come to offer the tavern customers to exchange soup and pour wine in exchange for a small amount of money to subsidize the family. This kind of woman is commonly known as "sloppy".

They are present in all the thriving restaurants in Tokyo, in the Ming and Qing dynasties, which advocated 'the loss of festival is a big thing, and starvation is a small thing'. This kind of behavior is hard to imagine.

Because these women shuttle among the drinkers, the drinkers have good and bad tastes, and it is inevitable that some fancy mouths will tease a few words or touch their little hands to take advantage of some small advantages. In the Ming and Qing dynasties, if a woman was molested in this way, she should have found a rope to hang herself.

Yang Yi raised his glass and took a picture of the three of them, drank them all, and then smiled at Duan Heyu: "I haven't seen you for many days, is the little prince okay?" If you need anything, don't be polite, just look for Xiao Yaozi. ”

Hearing this, Zhang Yao couldn't help but squirt out the wine that had been drunk in his mouth, choking and reddening. He coughed for a while before he relieved his breath and said, "Uncle Yang, you are really a big scourge, after the scourge of Western Xia, the scourge of Jiaozhi, this is not enough. He came to plague the little nephew again. ”

"Scourge you? I warn you to be careful when you speak, and those who don't know think I have a habit of breaking sleeves. ”

At this time, even the Su family's Xiaowu and Duan Heyu almost laughed, Zhang Yao had no choice but to be defeated, and if she continued to talk about it, it was estimated that she would be called a woman by him.

Duan Heyu finally couldn't hold back a laugh, and arched his hand to Yang Yi and said, "Since we met in Guangnan. Xiao Wang has a lot of Yang University scholars, and he is not grateful, so he can only report it later. ”

Yang Yi smiled and said: "The little prince is too polite, I really don't have any great kindness to the little prince, but I just do my best, and the little prince doesn't have to take it to heart." ”

"Scholar Yang is high-spirited, and he doesn't want to repay his kindness, how can Xiao Wang be ungrateful......."

The Su family's Xiaowu couldn't stand it anymore, and interjected: "Okay, you guys are sour or not, you don't have to spoil the wine, come on, don't talk about any kindness today, no matter what generation, let's do this glass together." ”

Yang Yi glanced at him and said, "No matter the seniority? It seems that only Xiao Wu dare to say this, it is best to go home and drink with your Ah Weng, you also come to such a sentence, you Ah Weng will definitely be happy. ”

In fact, as soon as the words just came out, the Su family's junior regretted it, Yang Yi was actually the same age as him, but he liked to put his seniority in front of him, how could he let go of this opportunity to teach juniors? As soon as these words came out, they were sealed back, and Su Xiaowu regretted that his intestines were blue.

"Uncle, what I said just now doesn't include you, I mean that the three of us are equals, and there is nothing to do with my uncle, don't go to me to complain, don't harm Xiao Yaozi and come to harm me again."

Yang Yi innocently spread his hands and replied: "Okay, Xiao Wu, you talk about this, I have nothing to say, don't worry, I won't tell you about this." ”

"Thank you, uncle, thank you." Su Xiaowu was overjoyed and gave up again and again.

"I'll just tell my lady."

"Uh......"

The Su family's little five seemed to have eaten cockroaches, the joy on his face suddenly froze, and when he was stunned, Zhang Yao couldn't help but burst into laughter, Duan Heyu reacted slowly, but soon followed the laughter.

"Uncle, you just spared Little Five, it's really not good, you just go and tell me Ah Weng that it's better."

"Xiao Wu, don't be afraid, your sister-in-law's kung fu of golden needles and acupuncture points has only been practiced to the seventh layer, and she is still far from the realm of Dacheng, look at your thick-skinned person, what is there to be afraid of?"

This time, Xiao Wu of the Su family stopped talking, picked up the pot of wine on the table and poured it violently, as if he was drinking severed head wine.

Zhang Yao snatched the wine jug from his hand and said with a smile: "Brother Su, let's say that the three of us will fight with him today, don't fall for him, your uncle is worried that he won't be able to drink us, so he resorted to this evil trick, are you getting drunk and not in his way?" ”

"The problem is, my sister-in-law's embroidery needle is really not human."

Zhang Yao and Duan Heyu fell again, but Yang Yi didn't smile, and said with a tense face: "Very good, Xiao Wu has grown up again, and people beat around the bush when they scold, very good, great." ”

"Oh, slip of the tongue, slip of the tongue, uncle, I never said you weren't human."

"Su Xiaowu, you wait. Otherwise, you'd better grow wings and fly into the sky. ”

"It's over, it's over......" Su Xiaowu's face was as white as a ghost in fright.

was laughing here, and suddenly heard a blue-shirted man at the next table shouting: "Little Er, settle the bill." ”

The little second brother in the store immediately responded: "Okay, thank you for coming to take care of the business of the shop, your table of wine and food totals two cents and two cents of silver." ”

The big man quickly took out the money to pay the bill, but it was not silver or copper that he took out. Rather, it was a new issue of five-length banknotes issued by the imperial court.

After months of preparation, the Ministry finally issued the first batch of 15 million banknotes more than a month ago. The first banknotes were mainly used to pay the salaries of officials and soldiers, and some were introduced to large merchants, due to the short period of issuance. There is still relatively little circulation between the markets.

As soon as the shopkeeper saw that the blue-shirted man took out a banknote, he immediately hesitated.

"This guest officer doesn't know, our owner said that our store only accepts gold, silver and copper coins, not paper money, and I hope that the guest officer will not make the villain embarrassed."

"What? Are you embarrassed? The blue-shirted man was already a rough voice, but he shouted violently, which attracted the attention of the entire tavern guests.

"The guest officer, please calm your anger, the owner of the store has indeed ordered this, and the villain really has no choice. I don't mean to make things difficult for you. ”

"Don't talk nonsense, hurry up and call your host, a certain family wants to see, why doesn't he take this money."

"Guest officer, please bear with me, our host went out of the city to buy mandarin fish. I'm afraid I won't be able to come back for a while. ”

The blue-shirted man was furious, slapped the table and shouted, "What are you doing?" This is the paper money before the imperial court issued the order, which is used all over the country, and you actually refuse to accept it, and dare to say that you don't mean to embarrass a certain family? If you dare to be wordy, see if someone doesn't punch you to death. ”

"Guest officer. Guest officer ......"

Before the shopkeeper could talk more, the blue-shirted man grabbed him by the collar and picked up the shopkeeper like an eagle catching a chicken.

"Slow, slow." Yang Yi saw that the big man's big fist was about to be beaten, so he hurriedly got up to stop it, "This big brother, if you beat someone and injured someone for some trivial matter, it's not worth it if you get a lawsuit, doesn't he not accept your banknote?" I'll take it, and I'll give you more money. ”

"Really?" The big man threw the shopkeeper away, walked over and looked Yang Yilai up and down.

Yang Yi didn't contain it, took out a piece of silver from his body, asked the shopkeeper to weigh out five yuan and five coins, and then handed it to the blue-shirted man.

The big man asked suspiciously, "Why did you do this?" ”

This question is also what the guests in the building want to know, this is not his business, but he is willing to spend more silver in exchange for this banknote, how not to teach people to be curious.

Some people with good deeds couldn't help but ask: "This big official, what is the reason why you exchange five more coins of silver for his five-yuan banknote?" ”

"Yes, yes, tell me about it!"

"Tell me."

……

Yang Yi smiled calmly: "You don't know? This is the first batch of banknotes issued by the imperial court, and the previous Jiaozi is very different, this banknote is not only beautifully printed, but also has the head of the official family, please think, the head of the official family has been printed, who dares to let it depreciate, is it really not blasphemy of the official family? ”

In order to persuade the imperial court to print Zhao Jie's portrait on the banknote, he wasted his strength for a long time, how could he not use it to promote it at this time?

As he spoke, he held up the note and showed it to the drinkers in the hall, and there was indeed a portrait of a child wearing a crown on the front.

Someone else asked: "This big official, even if it won't depreciate, it's not worth your extra money to exchange?" ”

Yang Yi first put the banknote into his arms, and then replied: "Xuande Gate has erected iron cards, in the future shall not be indiscriminately issued banknotes, now the imperial court with two or three billion taels of gold and silver as a deposit, only ready to issue 100 million banknotes, or in several installments, you must also know, this has no reserves, the indiscriminate issuance of banknotes will depreciate, in turn, more reserves, this Jiaozi will appreciate, now it has a face value of five times, not sure that it will be worth six times in the future.......

Under Yang Da's flickering and hype, everyone was stunned when they heard it, there were no reserves, depreciation, more reserves, and appreciation.

The truth seems to be true, as if it were true.
