Chapter 9 Dafa Li City

Du Qian hurriedly stepped forward to probe Li Si's snort, and turned back to everyone: "It's okay, it's just that I fainted in a hurry!" Then he asked someone to move Li Si to a sparsely populated place, and instructed the little minions waiting next to him to take the wine, took a big sip in his mouth on his back, and squatted in front of Li Si, only to hear the sound of "poof", the mixture of wine and saliva poured straight towards Li Si's face, and it didn't take long for Li Si to wake up.

Seeing Li Si's movement, Du Qian smiled proudly, got up and said to the minions on the side: "My trick is really a universal spirit, and it has been tried repeatedly!" Let's all learn something! ”

The little minions who stretched out their heads to look around were full of words, and the sound of sycophants was endless, Wang Lun saw this situation, shook his head and walked to the side, quite a little unbearable.

At this time, Zheng Qianzheng ran out of the courtyard with a happy face, and held a small wooden box in his arms, seeing that the lock had been broken, and the rhythm of his footsteps rattled, as if playing a cheerful and festive movement. Zheng Qian looked around at the crowd, finally saw where Wang Lun was, and hurriedly rushed over.

"The village, the owner of the village...... This time, we can make a big profit in the cottage! Zheng Qian just stood still, and he didn't have time to catch his breath, so he reported it.

"No hurry, no hurry! Let's take a break! Wang Lun stretched out his hand and patted Zheng Qian, who was panting heavily, took the gourd pinned to his waist, and handed it to his henchman. Zheng Qian hurriedly put down the wooden box in his arms, took the gourd in Wang Lun's hand with a smile on his face, and drank it with a grunt. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Wang Lun beckoned to Du Qian and motioned for him to come over and listen to Zheng Qian's news together.

Du Qian had already seen the movement here, and when he saw Zheng Qian drinking water, he couldn't hide the joy on his face, and he guessed a little bit in his heart, and scolded with a smile as he walked: "Zheng Qian, you kid, if you don't have enough news, see how I clean you up!" ”

Zheng Qian "chuckled" in his heart, and suddenly realized that his behavior just now was faintly inappropriate.

Alas! It was the huge wealth found in the backyard warehouse that made him get carried away, and he forgot for a while that the owner of the village had entrusted the cottage money and grain to Du Qian today. And as usual, he only looked forward to the head of the village, and almost ignored Du Qian, the leader of the direct management who was already in place. If it was in private, it would not be too much to report to the owner of the village, but now Du Qian is obviously on the side, but he turns a blind eye, and obviously does not take him, the top boss, in his eyes.

Thinking of this, Zheng Qian stretched out his hand to wipe the cold sweat oozing from his head, and secretly said "ashamed", fortunately, the owner of the village was careful and covered up the past for himself, otherwise Du Qian saw that he didn't take him seriously once or twice, and the contradiction would inevitably be stimulated.

Thinking of this, Zheng Qian's eyes looking at Wang Lun at this moment were a little different.

He is also a person with some experience, logically speaking, the worse the relationship between himself and Du Qian, the more beneficial it is for Wang Lun, but Wang Lun did not do this, but dissolved some actions that were easy to cause misunderstanding for himself, obviously hoping that his relationship with Du Qian would become harmonious.

This is really weird! At this time, the actions of the owner of the village are very different from the previous style! Could it be that after the owner of the village fell seriously ill, his mind became open-minded?

Putting aside the doubts, Zheng Qian carefully appreciated Wang Lun's intentions. He suddenly found that Wang Lun's current method of being the emperor was very clever in employing people without suspicion and suspicion. Regardless of whether he was on guard against Du Qian in his heart, just by his attitude towards the second master of his subordinates at this time, it was easy for people to have a mentality of dying as a confidant. Whoever looks at his every word and every move can conclude that Wang Lun fully trusts Du Qian. And since this trust is felt even by himself, an outsider, he does not believe that the person concerned will be dull and unconscious.

Thinking of this, Zheng Qian suddenly woke up, it seems that his future life will be very easy, at least he will not have to be caught between the owner of the village and the second leader. Of course, he also understands that it is one thing to respect his direct leader Du Qian in the future, and loyalty to the owner of the village at the critical moment is the foundation of his life in the cottage.

"Lao Zheng! What are you afraid of at a critical time? Tell me about any good things you kid has, so that my brother and I can feel at ease! Seeing Zheng Qian bowing his head and not saying a word, Du Qian was anxious for a while, so he just urged him.

Zheng Qian, who fell into reverie, was urged by Du Qian to bring back to reality, he hurriedly wiped his mouth with his sleeve, saluted Wang Lun and Du Qian respectively, and said loudly: "The lord of the village, the leader of Du, the children found a large amount of grain and grass in the backyard, and it is roughly estimated that the stock is no less than 8,000 stones!" In addition, when raiding the house, there was also a great harvest, a total of 100 taels of gold, 2,700 taels of silver, 4,300 copper coins, and jewelry worth no less than 1,000 yuan! There are countless cattle and sheep cloths, and they are still being counted! (At the end of the Northern Song Dynasty, the ratio of gold and silver was maintained at the level of one tael of gold greater than or equal to ten taels of silver, this book is calculated by one to ten, and the ratio of silver and copper coins is about one tael is about equal to the consistent text, and this book is calculated according to one to one, and the official of the Northern Song Dynasty has always set the copper coin to be 770 Wen, and this book is also calculated according to this number, but the copper coins are mostly different in quality, and the specific situation depends on the circumstances)

Before he could hear Zheng Qian finish speaking, Du Qian's expression became extremely excited, and his long face turned red. Later, he finally waited patiently for Zheng Qian to finish speaking, he couldn't wait to slap Zheng Qian, who was also excited, and couldn't help but say to Wang Lun: "Brother! These 10,000 treasures plus 8,000 stone of grain are enough for a year of my cottage! This guy has accumulated a lot of private goods, which is more real than my little brother and I have to rob merchants for three months in a row! ”

In fact, not only Du Qian was surprised, after listening to Zheng Qian's news, even Wang Lun was quite surprised in his heart, according to his previous estimates, this family can have two or three thousand stone of grain has reached the sky, I didn't expect that this time there would be such a rich harvest!

Holding back the doubts in his heart, Wang Lun asked, "Zheng Qian, how many fields does this family have?" Have you ever found a title deed? ”

Zheng Qian nodded excitedly and replied, "Just now, the villain took the title deed and flipped it slightly, this house has about more than 1,500 acres of upper fields, more than 900 acres of middle fields, and 700 acres of lower fields!" The box on the ground contained the title deeds of the Baozheng family and the notes of usury! After speaking, he pointed to the wooden box he had just brought and gestured to the two leaders.

"Hmm, it's about the same as the 3,000 acres of land provided by Li Si!" Wang Lun said thoughtfully. He remembered that the yield per mu of the fields in the northern part of the Northern Song Dynasty fluctuated about one stone according to the merits of the land, and the total of 3,000 mu of upper, middle and lower fields in the Song Dynasty could produce about 3,000 stone of grain a year according to the average yield of one stone, excluding the expenses of the large households, the two taxes in autumn and summer and other miscellaneous taxes, and the remuneration to the tenants totaled about 70 percent, and there was about 30 percent left, which means that the Baozheng family could have nearly 1,000 stone of grain in storage every year. If it is calculated according to the old grain stacked on the roof of the general landlord's treasury for two years, the inventory is at most about 2,000 stones, but tonight 8,000 stones of grain were copied out, which could not help but surprise Wang Lun! This is keeping so much food stored at home, isn't it afraid that it will be lost in vain if it is broken?

Wang Lun was puzzled, and suddenly heard Du Qian scolding on the side: "This thief bird, I don't want to be a clever thing!" Knowing that the price of food is getting more and more expensive, learn from others to buy and hoard food! If these more than 8,000 stone grain are put into the spring of next year, they will be sold on Hebei Road nearby, and they will not make a lot of money! ”

Rising food prices? Du Qian's unintentional words reminded Wang Lun, who was in deep thought, and he suddenly remembered that the price of grain in the late Northern Song Dynasty was extremely strong and rose all the way, from the time when Huizong ascended the throne, the money per stone would always rise two or three times to the four times of the Northern Song Dynasty, and in the early years of the Southern Song Dynasty, some areas even reached six times per stone! Under this trend of rising prices, large households with a little economic acumen at this time usually stock up on some food at home for appreciation! No wonder Song Jiang broke Zhujiazhuang that day and got 500,000 stone grain, so it makes sense.

Wrong! Wrong wrong!!

Wang Lun suddenly realized that he seemed to be missing something, and hurriedly waved his hand to stop Du Qian and Zheng Qian, who were in high spirits, regardless of the surprised eyes of the two, lowered his head and silently calculated in his heart: Nine thousand Guan Wen gold, silver and jewelry plus eight thousand stone coins are probably equivalent to the savings of the Baozheng family for more than ten years, and I heard Li Si say that his family has been tenants in this Baozheng family for generations, according to this, these money and food are far from all the savings of his family!

I see! Thinking of this, Wang Lun no longer hesitated, pulled Zheng Qian and instructed him: "There must be other secret rooms in this Baozheng family, bring those more than 30 family members down to me and ask carefully!" I don't believe that his family has been evil for generations, so he saved 20,000 yuan of money and food! Find it for me, dig three feet into the ground and find it out! ”

"Two brothers...... What are 20,000? ”

At this time, Song Wan, who had not yet arrived, shouted from afar, which made Wang Lun wonder if this person was born with a tailwind. Hearing the movement, everyone looked towards the place where the sound came from, only to see that the rear team of Song Wan's escort team had come to the village at this time, and hundreds of empty ox carts and carriages of all kinds lined up in an old line, straight from the courtyard to the outside of the village.

Without waiting for Song Wan to walk in front of him, Du Qian greeted him with joy: "Brother Song family, quickly beckon the children to go to the backyard to load and unload food!" I'm afraid you won't believe it, I've already copied out more than 20,000 yuan of grain at this time, so I'm waiting for you to pull it! ”

"My mother! How much? Twenty thousand!? Song Wan suddenly had all kinds of expressions on his face, which was exactly the same as Du Qian's reaction just now, just like two gourds that grew out of a vine, the shape was similar, and the god was even more similar.
