"Brother...."Bao Bu said mysteriously, "I'll tell you something, don't get dizzy." ”

Bao Yuanqian looked at his younger brother in wonder, "If you have a fart, let it go." ”

Bao Bu took him into the house mysteriously, took out a bag of cloth, and opened it to see ten shining silver ingots in front of him.

"Damn...."Bao Yuanqian couldn't help but open his mouth wide, and another hundred taels of silver were placed in front of him.

Although I already have experience, this is the second time I've seen so much silver since I was a child, and... It's your own home.

You don't have to think about this hundred taels, it must have been given by Luo Guanzhong when he went for a walk with him, and the quality was even better than the silver in the line.

The purchasing power of these taels of silver is almost six or seven hundred pieces of silver in later generations, and one hundred taels of silver of this kind is seventy or eighty thousand.

Counting the previous balance and his own military merit rewards, his old Bao family has already saved more than 100,000 yuan, which cannot be calculated from the inflation of future generations.

In the Ming Dynasty, ordinary people had nearly two hundred taels of silver, so they were not called ordinary people, they were called rich families!

Not to mention the same cloth, in the past five years, even if Cui Yingying has helped in private, he is almost always picking broken silver flowers, tight, and relying on the grain and grass in the military camp or the self-sufficiency planted in Uncle Bao's field.

Since I went to the customs to rob a wave back, my life seems to have begun to change, one or two hundred taels of silver is stored at home, and I am still a fart soldier!

If this military household can resign, he will immediately go through the formalities and go home to eat and drink for a few years, which is more than enough.

Last month, he first robbed some treasures, and it was the silver money sent by Luo Guanzhong, which directly made the destitute old Bao family rich.

The gap between the rich and the poor is really shocking to Bao Yuanqian, and rubbing some mud pills on others is enough for his family to soar.

But this is also his own time, the first time he went out of the customs to rob a princess of the Northern Yuan, can this wealth be missing?

In the barracks, I met an old man Luo who had a lot of family entanglements, and Mr. Luo remembered that he helped him give advice, and wrote a book to say that he had fulfilled his lifelong wish.

As soon as he gave it, he gave himself a hundred taels of silver.

If it was someone else, it would naturally be impossible to get the silver from Old Man Luo.

But it just so happens that he is a modern person who is familiar with the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, and what he reads is the essence version that has been deleted and summarized by literati in the past dynasties.

This kind of luck can't be said to be very good, it can only be said that there is no one who has come before or after!

"Yuan Qian... This is for you, you can arrange it. Bao Shilie walked in from outside the house.

Bao Yuanqian shook his head and said: "The family still has to be Uncle Bao, and this silver is collected together with you before, I look at this land, I am afraid that you will not have to work Uncle Bao in the future." ”

Bao Shilie waved his hand and said: "I'm used to farming, and I'm addicted to it, if I don't do something on this day, I'll be very idle." Besides, recently, some evil slaves in the yamen have begun to encroach on the land again. ”

"Oh?"

"As long as your field is not managed for a period of time, there will be some evil slaves who will bring people to harvest the land with both hard and soft use. If I don't plough it, sooner or later I'll be taken by those bastards. Bao Shilie sighed, "Although there is a lot of money in the family, but we are military households, and we can't stand the business, as long as this is a number, we will sit empty, which of you two wives and children will not need money in the future?" Only by having a piece of land of one's own can one protect one's children and grandchildren. ”

Bao Yuanqian thought in his heart, what Uncle Bao said was right.

People who get rich overnight often find it difficult to keep their money, and there will be little left between several revenge spending.

Once you lose your ability to make a living, you can only wait to die when you run out of money.

It seems that this land still has to be planted. Farming and reclamation is a long-term solution, otherwise it will be encroached upon, and what will you eat when the money is spent?

However, Uncle Bao has been farming all his life, and he may not have seen ten taels, why did he come with one or two hundred taels of silver these times, he was not surprised at all, and he was even more calm than himself, a traverser.

It's a little too calm, could it be that Uncle Bao turned out to be a businessman who is very rich?

"Brother, this time Miss Cui is back, but I want to be impressed by you." Wrap the cloth with the arch of the fire road.

Bao Yuanqian shook his head, he knew that although the Bao family was rich now, it was still a world of difference compared to a big family like the Cui family.

"Uncle Bao, I and Butong will go to work in the fields today, Butong is healed, and I happen to be idle at home."

Bao Yuanqian saw that Bao Shilie was about to go out with a hoe, and couldn't help but stop him.

"Let's go, Butong." Bao Yuanqian went out with a hoe, and Bao Butong followed closely behind with farm tools.

"Brother... I haven't eaten the mutton bun you promised me last month! ”

"Don't you have money in your hands? At that time, our family was poor, but now it is different, and you can eat if you want to. ”

"That's different, I just want to eat what my brother invited..."

"Hey, wrap the cloth with you little miser."

The two of them walked out of the city gate while talking, walked to the ridge of the irrigation canal of the Zarai River, and walked into their farmland and began to work.

There were many people working in the vicinity, all of which were the fields of military households in the barracks, and of course there were also fields where wealthy families were officials, and tenants were hired to cultivate them.

The two were waving their hoes, only to see a commotion in the distance, Bao Yuanqian put down the hoe and looked.

It turned out that in the distance were the fields of several military households, and a man in official uniform was walking around the fields with a dozen soldiers, measuring the land.

And a few peasant women were kneeling on the ground, pulling the group of people and not letting them measure.

"I don't know which unlucky ones have been encroached upon." It's no surprise to wrap the cloth.

Bao Yuanqian understands better than Bao Butong that the cycle of the demise of feudal dynasties is always fixed in a period of time, and the ultimate reason is land annexation.

From the beginning of a dynasty, the wealthy bureaucracy began to gradually encroach on the land, and the peasants who lost it had to sell themselves as tenant serfs at the mercy of others.

As soon as this problem accumulated to a point, a peasant revolt broke out and the dynasty was shaken.

Every dynasty is like this, but every dynasty does this, it can only be said that the Qin people do not have time to mourn themselves and future generations mourn them, and later generations mourn but do not learn from them, and they also make future generations mourn future generations.

"The only lesson that people learn from history is that they don't learn any lessons from history." Bao Yuanqian sighed, although he was not ashamed of such behavior, but he could not do anything.

He is just a small military household, he only needs to do a good job of his own one-third of an acre, and the work of Pudu sentient beings should be left to the Buddha to do.

During the work, I could only hear the crying father and mother in the field, but in the end it was crushed like a mantis arm and turned into dust.

At the end of the measurement of each piece of land, it is announced that a common family is ruined.

Bao Yuanqian was so upset when he heard this, he could only swing his hoe and work harder to divert his attention.

I saw that the man and the soldiers had finished measuring several pieces of land, and then approached to look at another piece of land.

In the midst of the land stood an old man in a short coat, who came with an iron hoe.

"Yo! Diao Min! Don't take it for me yet! ”

The first man screamed, and the soldier came forward and pressed him down in the muddy field, his face covered with mud, and the old man cursed, but he could not move.

A woman next to her rushed out and grabbed the official's face, tore and pinched, making a few bloody marks, and a child was crying helplessly on the side.

"It's unreasonable! My man has been missing for less than a month, and you brutes who have lost their conscience want to come and occupy my family's land! I'm fighting with you!! ”

The woman howled, and the official was in pain, rubbed her roe deer eyes, and said angrily: "Hold her up for me, Lao Tzu will beat her to death today!" ”

The woman was framed, and the ruler slapped her on the face!

"Smack!"

There was a loud bang, but it wasn't the sound of hitting the woman in the face.

"Ahh The official suddenly cried out in pain, watching his hand bent at a strange angle, obviously interrupted!

"Bang Bang!!" After a few more sounds, the four soldiers who were holding the woman and the old man were all knocked to the ground with sticks!
