About the price system of the book
It is not good for historical texts to casually talk nonsense about prices, which makes everyone feel disobedient, and the author has also studied a large number of historical materials for this.
The more detailed price systems that can be found now are basically from the Wanli period. However, Wanli is basically regarded as a peaceful era, and prices are extremely low; The two dynasties of Tianqi and Chongzhen first changed in Liaodong, and then the displaced people rebelled, and then natural disasters were rampant, and the prices of the whole country were very chaotic.
In particular, the price of grain, which is the most important of the price of goods, has "felt" people by the rising trend.
The author studies historical materials and speculates on his own, combined with some special circumstances (such as the price in the war zone must be higher than in other areas, and sometimes even abnormally high), and sets up the price system of this article roughly according to the original historical appearance, so as not to create a sense of disobedience as much as possible.
The protagonist has just crossed over to Chongzhen for four years, and the prices are almost twice that of Wanli year, and the south is not threatened, so the prices are not as high as the north.
In Chongzhen's 6 to 10 years, prices have increased, and natural disasters have continued to increase the strength of the peasant uprising, and the prices are about three times that of Wanli year.
Chongzhen's prices rose the fastest in 10 to 15 years, and Chongzhen's prices in Jiangnan in 14 to 15 years were five times that of Wanli.
The above prices are normal prices, and are calculated separately under special circumstances and backgrounds.
