Liu Kai was also full of emotion and said, "Not bad! In fact, the lord and Tian Junshi are really good to us! Since the autumn harvest last year, they have returned the grain we have handed in at a price of 20 cents per stone, which is already very kind! After all, when we became tunmin, we weren't even sure if we could eat enough, but now, we can still have money to spend? What's not to be satisfied with? ”

Zhao Yun said suspiciously: "Twenty dollars per stone? So what's the point? ”

Chen Liangdao rolled his eyes and said, "What are you doing with twenty dollars?" Twenty dollars is two catties of pork and two catties of sea fish! ”

Xu Shu was stunned for a moment, and asked in surprise, "What?" Meat and fish, are only ten cents a pound? ”

Liu Kai nodded as a matter of course, and asked rhetorically: "Otherwise, how much is a catty?" ”

Li Ren smiled and said, "Four, you don't need to be surprised! Our situation in Xuzhou is different from other places! Hehe, I'm thinking, you're probably wondering, each stone of grain is only supplied with twenty wen, is it too little? ”

Seeing that the four of them nodded, he said: "The price of grain in Xuzhou has not changed much since last year, and it has always been fifty wen and one stone!" Hehe, so, twenty is a lot! ”

At this moment, several people were surprised, and Zhao Yun exclaimed: "How is it possible? ”

Seeing his reaction, Li Ren nodded with satisfaction and said, "Xuzhou's grain production has increased greatly, that's why it's like this!" If it weren't for Uncle Huang using the money in the treasury to stabilize prices, I'm afraid it would have fallen! ”

In Youzhou, because there is not much arable land and the weather is cold, the price of grain is about 400 yuan. Jizhou is a little better, but because of the war, the price of grain is about two hundred yuan, Jingzhou has been calm for many years, and the price of grain is even lower, but there are almost one hundred yuan, which Xuzhou ......

Tian Yu suddenly asked: "In the whole of Xuzhou, there are few people in Mintun and Juntun?" Is there so much grain handed over by each tunzi? ”

Li Ren thought for a moment and said, "In the entire Xuzhou, the total number of Tun people is 670,000!" Well, these two tunzi are considered to have the most grain handed in, and the rest of the tunzi, on average, each person handed in about thirty stones! What's wrong? ”

The four of them gasped! More than 600,000 people pay taxes in two quarters every year, assuming that each person pays 50 stone per year, so that in a year, it will be more than 30 million stones! Each soldier needs about fifteen stone of rations per year, so doesn't it mean that Xuzhou can feed two million troops? This is only for the people, if the population of more than 2 million people in Xuzhou is counted......

Of course, after removing the officials' salaries, there will definitely not be so many, but it is still not a problem to feed an army of 300,000!

This...... This...... Incredible too?

As if understanding their thoughts, Li Ren pondered for a moment and asked cautiously, "Four, ...... you Do you really want to take refuge in the lord? ”

The four nodded, and Zhao Yun said, "Then there is still a fake?" ”

Li Ren sighed and said, "I, Li Ren, am just a small official!" There are many things that I know and don't know very well! Well, however, based on the information I have obtained, plus my own guesses, the income of Xuzhou Mufu was about 1.5 billion yuan last year! ”

The four of them gasped again, I damn it, I heard that Xuzhou is rich, but who would have thought that they would be so rich? 1.5 billion dollars? The annual income of the Han Dynasty is only four billion yuan......

Li Ren's next sentence made them feel like they were struck by lightning!

"This year, the business tax revenue of only the county and the income from selling salt are estimated to exceed one billion yuan! Coupled with the brewing liquor created by Tian Junshi, as well as soap and soap, I estimate that this year, in terms of commercial taxes alone, the income of the state pastoral government should be more than 2.2 billion yuan! If you add agricultural taxes, hehe, at least no less than 3.5 billion! ”…,

Tian Yu exclaimed: "Impossible! ”

Li Ren rolled his eyes and said, "What am I lying to you for?" And that's just the way it is! ”

He looked at the stupid eyes of the four people, smiled slightly, and continued: "Although the income of the State Pastoral Mansion is large, the expenditure is just as much! The officials' salaries are distributed twice as much as those stipulated by the imperial court, which is what Tian Junshi meant, which is to let officials stop being corrupt and bribery, and let generals stop drinking soldiers' blood! Ordinary soldiers have five stone of grain per month, cavalry have ten stone, and the general's personal soldiers have twenty stone per month, so the cost is very high! In addition to these, the state capital has been building roads, water conservancy, shipbuilding, etc. for the past two years, and the cost is even greater! Also, although Xuzhou produces a lot of grain, but winemaking also consumes a lot of grain, so the entire state pastor, although quite rich, still has to be thrifty and spend. ”

After a pause, he continued again: "Like these two tunzi, they have been tuntian for two years, that is to say, in another three years, their land will be their own!" At that time, the state government can only collect 10% to 20% of its taxes, and if you want it again, you have to spend money to buy it! ”

After that, he shook his head, sighed, and said: "I really don't know why the lord and the Tian military division should pay such a high salary to the soldiers, if in a few years, the people of Tuntian have become free people, and the income of the state capital has dropped, how can it be good?" ”

When Xu Shu heard this, he shook his head slightly, and said: "I am afraid that Uncle Huang and Boguang have already known this matter in their hearts, hehe, you don't have to worry!" ”

Li Ren listened and nodded slightly. After a while, he glanced at Tian Yu and said, "I understand Brother Tian's thoughts, just now, you were probably calculating Xuzhou's annual grain output, right?" Hehe, you can't simply multiply the number of people by the amount of a single person! Because, at this time, Xuzhou is very different from before! Many Xuzhou locals no longer cultivate the fields, but choose to work in the homes of various clans! There is food, and there is a salary to be paid, and the amount is very objective! As far as I know, the brewing workshop and soap workshop of Tian Junshi's family are the places with the highest salary, and one person can have five hundred yuan a month! The highest, some skilled workers, can have more than two thousand dollars per month! Hehe, two thousand a month, in a year, you can buy three cows! ”

The four of them were already numb, and they didn't talk to these three for a long time, but they were completely stupid! Xuzhou, there are so many surprises for them, so many that they can't digest them!

Thinking of what they saw and heard all the way in Xuzhou, they had the answer in their hearts! It turns out that the people of Xuzhou are so rich, no wonder they don't need money to eat a meal!

Once they understand that Xuzhou is unattainable in other places, they are full of confidence in Xuzhou! is so rich, and it can be understood from Li Rensan's mouth that the people are full of gratitude to Liu Bei, and the Xuzhou Group is extremely cohesive, how can such a force be underdeveloped?

At the same time, Zhao Yun and Tian Yu had a great interest in this Tian Fan, who had never met before! What does such a prodigy look like? What is the personality like?

Xu Shu and Shi Tao felt the same, but what they were curious about was Liu Bei! What kind of person is Liu Bei, and why can a genius like Tian Fan follow him with all his heart?

If Tian Fan knew about these four people, especially Zhao Yun and Xu Shu, he would have such an evaluation of him, I was afraid that he would wake up laughing when he dreamed!

That night, the four of them stayed in Chen Liangdao's small tunzi, and after some discussion, the four of them decided to stay in this small tunzi for a few days for the time being, to see and listen more.

The next day, they saw a strange thing again - a wheelbarrow!

Seeing that they were curious, Chen Liangdao smiled and said, "This thing is called a wooden cow and a flowing horse, also known as a wheelbarrow!" It was invented by Tian Junshi, and it was also produced by the furniture workshop in Tian Junshi's house! This wheelbarrow is a good thing, it can walk on narrow roads, go up the mountain, and the load capacity is also good, it can carry about fifteen stones! Hehe, this is the first batch produced by Tian Junshi's family at the end of last year! He gave the first batch of wheelbarrows as prizes to people who, like me, went to Xiapi to attend the banquet! ”…,

After that, he shook his head and said with emotion: "Master Tian, what a good person!" ”

The unicycle is now the first fist product produced in the woodworking workshop cooperated by the two Tianmi! This kind of car is more advanced than the wooden ox flowing horse invented by Zhuge Liang, without gorgeous decoration, the skeleton is stronger, and the maneuverability is much stronger. After all, Tian Fan is a modern person, and when it comes to learning, he can't compare with Zhuge Liang, but his insight is not comparable to Zhuge Liang.

Unfortunately, due to the limitation of production, this kind of good thing can only be supplied to the army first, especially the armies of Guangling and Langya, where the mountainous area is very mountainous, and it is especially suitable to transport food and materials by wheelbarrow!

In order to promote the product, Tian Fan gave the first batch of 100 cars to Chen Liangdao and others at the banquet at the beginning of the year. It's because of this car that Liu Kai's eyes can't be greedy! He swore a poisonous oath that he must hand in more grain than Chen Liangdao this year, and he also went to the banquet to get such a prize!

Zhao Yun and a few people tried it out of curiosity, and as soon as they got started, they were very unsuitable for this kind of thing with one wheel, and they stumbled and stumbled! Put Chen Liangdao distressed, grinning! That is, a few minutes later, the four of them pushed it all the same!

Xu Shu said with emotion: "This thing is really a good thing!" Hehe, I can't imagine that my junior brother has such ability? ”

Shi Tao nodded and said, "Boguang, he is indeed not an ordinary person, otherwise, he would not be able to enter the eyes of the three teachers!" ”

Three days later, on the day when the four of them were about to say goodbye, Chen Liangdao left them behind, and he said: "Several, today, the people in our tun are going to the ancestral hall of the emperor's uncle and Tian Junshi to pray for the two of them, don't you go to see it?" ”

The four of them looked at each other, and Shi Tao gritted his teeth again and said, "Ancestral Hall? Uncle Huang and Boguang asked you to build it? "The ancestral hall is the ancestral hall that people are still alive and established. In Shi Tao's opinion, this is also an obscenity, and it should be a forbidden thing!

In ancient times, there was a flood of obscenity in various dynasties. Obscene shrine does not refer to finding a few girls, and then a few big men go up to he It is generally initiated by local wealthy families, and its purpose is to accumulate money, and of course, there are also money and sex cheats. For example, the river woman killed by Simon Leopard is a typical obscene shrine.

Shi Tao is an upright person, and what he hates most is the kind of behavior that squeezes the people's fat and ointment, so he has such a performance!

Chen was stunned for a moment, shook his head violently, and said, "Where is it?" Because of this, the emperor's uncle and Tian Junsheng were so angry that they forced us to take off their ancestral halls...... However, we discussed it privately, and among the nearby tuns, one was left, and the rest were demolished! ”

He glanced left and right, and said cautiously: "You must not tell Uncle Huang and Tian Junshi about this matter!" ”

He sighed and said with emotion: "We, the little people, live in troubled times, but we can have such a beautiful life, so we are naturally grateful to Uncle Huang and Master Tian!" However, the two of us never accepted the things we sent, so we had no choice but to think of this method, which can be regarded as a little heart! ”
