After a rain in Qingming, the weather began to heat up, even in Shandong, but the leaves have already exhibited young leaves, along with the morning and evening cold curtain has also dispersed, and when it is nearly noon, it can make people sweat hot. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

It is this weather, the most suitable for trading, Zhou Village has been famous for producing cotton cloth since ancient times, and every household will spin and weave cloth during the slack time, and then transport it to the cloth village for sale.

Like this after the Qingming Dynasty, it is the most lively day of the cloth market in spring, the front of the cloth village is full of people carrying cloth and cloth, and in addition to many small traders in the market, the people in the market of the village will put all kinds of foreign goods in the most conspicuous place of the store early in the morning, and the cloth market before the summer is busy can sell more goods. In the past year, there have been more and more foreign goods in this village, and most of them are from North Korea, and even the cotton yarn sold in Nabu Village is also shipped from North Korea.

"Samu, it's cheaper......"

The old stone sat on a stone by the side of the road, and the long dry pipe was placed diagonally beside him, shouting breathlessly. The sun after the Qingming Festival is already a little hot, and the old stones are hot on the back, like carrying a pot of fire.

This sun is really poisonous enough, and the old stone sitting under the sun feels that his body is even hotter, and the heat is a little itchy. He was still wearing the torn cotton jacket that had survived the winter, and his jacket was still in the pawnshop, but he didn't get to the Qingming side, and it was so hot.

The sky has changed!

The old stone said in his heart, and spit a thick spit. There was a yarn in front of him, and the yarn that the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law had spun in a winter would have been put aside for the previous years. The yarn hasn't been spun yet. It was taken away by Buzhuang. But now this yarn is not easy to sell—all the yarns sold in the cloth houses are cheaper yarns, which are no worse than the native yarns, and are even stronger.

With cheap and sturdy yarn, there are naturally not many people willing to ask for the yarn spun in this house, unless there is not enough yarn, people will come to buy this yarn, but now the yarn in this yarn village is selling more and more, as if the yarn is like a big water flowing all endless.

"Uncle Stone. Are you still selling yarn here? ”

"Hmm!"

Answered, the old stone, who hadn't sold a few catties of yarn for a long time, obviously didn't have the heart to deal with others.

"Now this yarn is not easy to sell, and the foreign yarn in Incheon is more than 10% cheaper than the local yarn!"

Chen Laoliu, who sells needlework and fine brains on the side, said with a lot of eyesight, usually he pushes a wheelbarrow to the village to sell goods, and this episode is lively and naturally rushes to the set, this is no business, naturally chatted with the old stone around him, on the seniority, he has to call the old stone uncle.

"Yarn and yarn, sooner or later, the copper in our pocket will have to be deceived by foreign devils."

How did the foreign devil cheat the money? Old Tongbao doesn't understand very well. But he believed very much that the words of Master Xu in Zhuangzi must be good. And he himself clearly saw that since the town has foreign yarn, foreign cloth. Foreign oil, this kind of foreign goods, the things that are born in his own fields are worthless day by day, even the yarn that was in short supply in the past cannot be sold at a high price. On the other side, the taxes sent to the countryside have also increased, and it was last year that the coastal defense donations were added, saying that they wanted to prevent foreign devils from attacking our Qing Dynasty.

It's all caused by foreign devils. Thinking about the foreign devils in the book: red eyebrows, green eyes, and straight legs when walking. It's not a ghost, the copper of this common people has made the foreign devils disappear.

"Look at what you said, the yarn in Incheon is said to be foreign yarn, but it is still the factory run by the unified supervision government, and the yarn made by our own people with the machine of foreigners! Even that cotton is the cotton of our Great Qing Kingdom! ”

Chen Laoliu, who was talking on the side, took advantage of the words and lit a bag of cigarettes, last year he made a lot of money by harvesting cotton in Zhuangzi, thanks to the rule set by Incheon - cotton yarn for cotton. How can those cloth villages send people out to harvest cotton, and in the end this business still falls on him, in the past, he used to go to the village to exchange cotton yarn with needles and threads, but now he is exchanging cotton yarn for cotton.

"According to me, Uncle Shi, your old spinning wheel is still stopped, and the cloth woven with foreign yarn Dorisso, sixteen Incheon yarns, is much stronger than in the past, and it can't be worn out in winter, and you can sell it for an extra copper yuan mile when you put it in the pawnshop in winter."

"Fake foreign devils, more hateful than real foreign devils, in the past, the things of foreign devils were left in the city, like now, all the things sold on this episode are foreign goods, sooner or later, everyone will have to pit this fake foreign devil......"

The old stones whose business was affected naturally would not say that they were good, in fact, this was also natural, but Chen Lao Liu, who was on the side, was unimpressed and took out a copper dollar from the money bag.

"Uncle Shi, look, the copper dollar made by this fake foreign devil, don't we still use it for profit, if we don't have this copper dollar, our people's life is really good!"

His words, suddenly made the old stone speechless, but not what, since the copper dollar from last year from the seaside, the copper dollar printed with flowers suddenly solved the urgency of the lack of money in the market, most of the city now use the North Korean side when five or ten copper dollars, and even together with the silver dollar, more and more people use it.

If there is no copper dollar, the sale of yarn may not suffer a big loss, sometimes there is no money in the village, can not just write a voucher, but how can the voucher buy things, it is like now it is a real copper dollar to take out.

"Besides, Uncle Shi, look at the foreign goods on this set, there are more and more on the market, but the Incheon goods are getting cheaper and cheaper, isn't it, it's the two taels of silver hot water bottles, it looks expensive, but the firewood money saved a year is more than two taels of silver......"

There is no match to talk to Chen Lao Liu, finally opened, sold a few catties of yarn, after receiving a handful of copper dollars, looking at the copper yuan that reflected the light, the old stone thought in his heart, in the past, the money engraved was the emperor's year name, that like this copper yuan, not even a year name is engraved, is it possible that the world has really changed?

"If it doesn't work, just sell this yarn cheaper and change it to spinning......"

Thinking about the wrinkled face of the old stone, a smile appeared, this God does not bully the diligent people, as long as they are diligent, spinning and weaving can also live......

"The way of the world is about to change!"

Standing in front of the door of Fuzizhuang, looking at the foreign goods in the shops on the street, Han Wulin took a mouthful of dry tobacco pouches, and whispered softly on his lips, for him who has been a businessman for many years, his knowledge is far from being comparable to those old farmers who have never even entered the county seat in their lives.

For the old farmers in the countryside, there are more and more foreign goods on the market, and they are getting cheaper and cheaper, which is a good thing, but in his opinion, this is not a good thing, the more foreign goods are sold, the cheaper they are, the more difficult it is to sell the local goods in the countryside, and I don't know how many farmers who make a living from this will be in trouble, just like the home spinning is becoming more and more difficult to sell, sooner or later, the local goods in the countryside will have to let those foreign goods be squeezed out.

"Shopkeeper, look at the one who worries you, the way of the world has changed, the way of the world has not changed on that day......"

Without waiting for the guy to finish speaking, Han Wulin shook his head and said.

"Change, it depends on how it changes, you don't see the way of the world, you become ......"

It's getting more and more chaotic, and there are eggs under this nest, how can a guy understand this kind of truth!

"It's not that we're not! It's ruined, there's a tall one, isn't it, and ......"

"You know what!"

Han Wulin spat out a puff of cigarette, his eyes narrowed into a slit, for him who had experienced twisting and turning, he didn't know that the world had changed and the suffering of the people.

"Shopkeeper, according to me, it's a good thing that the world has changed, you see what's going on in this Qing Dynasty, our shop only earns a few pennies of silver a year, but the government added ten taels of silver, saying that it is a coastal defense donation, this donation of taxes, sooner or later we have to squeeze the oil of our people, can this world not change......"

For the young man, he may not allow it, but he knows that this acre of land has been donated by dozens of yuan, but it is forcing the people to death. But the government didn't seem to see it, and it was still donating vigorously, and when the government was donating, the officials who collected the donations added a few yards layer by layer.

Donation ...... Haiphong

The words of the guy made Han Wulin suddenly dumb, but isn't it, this Haiphong donation is only hundreds of thousands of taels a year for a province, and tens of thousands of taels for a county, but this donation is received by hundreds of thousands of people below, forcing the people to death like this, can this world not be chaotic.

"Shopkeeper, I heard people in the restaurant a while ago that the court is going to train the new army, saying that it is going to send the new army to donate, according to the head, one person can get twenty yuan, like our shop does not have eighty or ninety taels of silver a year, but it can't be ......."

Whether it's rumors or true things, in short, there is news of additional donations everywhere in the market, not to mention the promotion of small people, even if they are doing business like Han Wulin Listening to this news, their hearts are also entangled, but Han Wulin, who was born as a scholar, immediately maintained the imperial court.

"Little Erzi, don't listen to the nonsense of people outside, how can this donation be added if it is added, that is, our Great Qing Kingdom wants to train troops, and it is also to guard against foreign devils......"

But he said that he had no confidence, just like the coastal defense donation he said earlier, saying that it was to let the gentry serve the service, but in the end it was apportioned as a donation, this new army, I heard that North Korea and Taiwan have been trained, according to a few days in the county I heard that the Taiwan new army in the Ryukyus is very brave, all with one block ten, straight to fight the Oriental people all the way to defeat, if the court really trains the new army, uncertain, maybe when the time can be sent to donate.

When the time comes, it will be a really sad day!

Thinking so in his heart, Han Wulin didn't have the heart to smoke the cigarette anymore, looking at the sky in the west that was dyed red by the sunset, his face was full of sadness, as if the sunset was the Great Qing Kingdom. (To be continued.) )
