Chapter 64: The Salt Merchant? Don't do it!
Zhou Qi's eyes widened! Hurriedly pulled his hand out!
"Girl, you have something to say, don't talk nonsense!"
It's not just him, the salt luck made Wu Chang jump out on the spot, and even the always serious Han Dutong was shocked!
Pointing at Zhou Qi, he asked, "Sir, is what my cousin said true?" ”
Yan Yunshu has the intention of beating people at this time, his own daughter!
When was this!
How did he not know anything!?
Zhou Qi waved his hands in a panic!
Before he could explain, Wu Zhitao sat on the ground and whimpered: "It's about Tao'er's innocence, how can I be nonsense?" But if you do not believe, he should have mine...... Something close to you! ”
After speaking, he glanced at Zhou Qi.
"Nope! Absolutely nothing! ”
Zhou Qi said bluntly that he remembered that he threw away the belly pocket rag on the spot!
However, as soon as he finished saying this, he remembered that it seemed that the belly pocket was stuffed into his arms by his daughter-in-law Su Ling, so he didn't have time to think about it and touched his body, and sure enough, he felt the feeling of embroidery on the inner lining of the clothes!
The most important thing is that he has changed his clothes in the past few days, why is the rag still here?
But he didn't take it out after all, this ancient girl's thing is especially important, even if it's a father, you can't see it!
But his behavior was seen by everyone.
A guilty person gives himself away by conspicuously protesting his innocence......
"You! You! ……”
The salt messenger pointed at him for a long time.
Han Dutong is quite calm, since this is the case, it is okay to end this good thing, after all, Zhou Qi is also a person in his eyes, and he is indeed a rare good man!
Zhou Qi is now indistinguishable, and when he looked at Wu Zhitao on the ground, he saw her crackling tears......
Those tears are real, they will come!
At this level, if you don't award an Oscar, you're sorry for this acting!
But no woman would destroy her innocence for no reason......
Thinking of this, Zhou Qi suddenly had a flash of inspiration in his mind, and asked, "Then when do you want to pass the door?" ”
Wu Zhitao was anxious when he heard this, stood up and glared at him and said, "When did I say I was going to marry you!" ”
After speaking, his big eyes rolled a little, and he said aggrievedly: "You unrighteous person, you want to include me in the family when I demolish you on the spot, I can see through you!" I have no intention of coveting mortals, I just want to march and fight with my cousin, if not, then I will enter the nunnery, and this life! ”
Zhou Qi understood on the spot, daring to love this girl is determined to join the army!
He is a modern person, not as pedantic as the ancients, but he was inexplicably named in the name of being unkind, where is he not angry?
"You want to join the army! There are no doors! ”
Yan Yunzhi was even more angry and trembling, angry that this daughter didn't know the sky and the earth was whimsical, and angry Zhou Qi abandoned his daughter in chaos!
But the matter has come to this, the innocence of a daughter's family is particularly important, even if he kills the negative man in front of him, his daughter's life will be ruined, not to mention that he doesn't dare to fight......
He pondered for a while, and had no choice but to say to Zhou Qi with a slight pleading: "Sir, although my little girl is stubborn, she is definitely not a frivolous girl, and I hope that Mr. will accept the little girl, I can use ten thousand taels of silver as a dowry, and Mr. must not dislike the little girl..."
A father, from a third-grade official, in order to not be wronged after his daughter's marriage, he was hired with a high dowry!
Father's love is like a mountain, Zhou Qi is angry now, but he really doesn't treat this girl well! …
How does this make him explain?
Fortunately, Wu Zhitao was dumbfounded when she heard this, she originally thought that her father would be worried that this negative man would not be good for her, so she could only follow her request to join the army!
She never expected that she would have to post 10,000 taels of silver upside down!
In a hurry, he shook his legs and stomped his feet, like an ant on a hot pot, and said: "Daddy! I'm not going to marry him either! I just lied to you! ”
Yan Yunenvoy was slightly stunned when he heard this, but Han Dutong, who was watching the play on the side, shook his head with a smile: "Where did my cousin learn that Mr.'s surname is Zhou?" ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone present was stunned!
"Shut up!"
The salt envoy got angry again, pointed at Wu Zhitao and shouted: "You don't have a word of truth in your mouth!" ”
Then he bowed to Zhou Qi: "If Mr. is not enough, I will give you another thousand silver every month!" ”
Zhou Qi's legs are soft, and a thousand silver a month and a thousand silver a year...
He's not really in it for money!
Seriously not seriously......
After reciting it silently in my heart many times, I said uncertainly, "That... Okay? ”
Anyway, there is a nominal Zhao Xiaoyu in the family, so it's okay to have one more, right?
As soon as the salt envoy saw that he agreed, tears of joy squeezed out, and Han Dutong on the side directly stepped forward to congratulate him!
"Congratulations cousin! Congratulations sir! Congratulations cousin! ”
Only Wu Zhitao stared at him with big eyes, completely speechless, and after thinking for a while, he suddenly became angry!
"Daddy, he already has three wives and concubines at home! I'm the daughter of an official family, aren't you afraid of being laughed at as a concubine!? ”
When the salt envoy heard about it, he was even more sure of their relationship, otherwise how could a few concubines in the family know about it!?
So angry that he threw his sleeves again!
"I'm more afraid that others will laugh at you, and you are shameless!"
Wu Zhitao suddenly fell to the ground when he heard this, and completely gave up struggling!
Zhou Qi is about to laugh, this girl's way of repaying her kindness is really different!!
However, ten thousand taels of silver!
It's a matter of adding a pair of chopsticks to the house, this deal is definitely a good deal, and he thinks about it now!
So, at that moment, he bowed to the salt envoy and said, "I don't know when to greet you?" ”
Yan Yun's voice softened after a brief thought.
"Although she is accepted as a concubine, I also grew up with Tao'er in the palm of my hand, and I still want to marry her beautifully......"
As he spoke, he wiped away his tears: "I implore Mr. Ba to carry a sedan chair to come over to greet my relatives, I have all the funds!" ”
Hearing this, Zhou Qi frowned, this genuine wife didn't have this treatment when she got married, if he somehow carried a sedan chair to pick up Wu Zhitao, I don't know what the village said!
Money is important, but not as important as a daughter-in-law!
"I'm afraid it's difficult!"
"That's it! I'll let go of this old face! Tomorrow! You'll pick it up tomorrow! ”
The salt envoy waved his hand in great pain, and as soon as he sat down in the chair, he wiped away his tears!
"Okay."
Zhou Qi responded, and then squinted and smiled at Wu Zhitao, who was stunned in place, quite graceful!
And Han Dutong saw that a few people had finally negotiated, and finally asked the doubts in his heart: "Where did my cousin come to Wanyin?" ”
If you have this money, it is not impossible to borrow weapons to make weapons to supplement food and grass and recruit militia!?
In front of Han Dutong, although the salt envoy was a cousin, he was still more respectful, wiped the tears on his face and responded: "Of course there is no cash, some of it has been handed over to the Son of Heaven, but I have salt!" ”
Han Dutong pouted, Bai was happy!
The salt envoy continued: "I only need 200 copper plates a catty to collect official salt, but Mr. can sell 800 copper plates a catty!" I'll ship you 20 tons of salt this year, and I'll sell it myself! ”
This dare to pay for the goods......
Zhou Qi was also a little speechless, Bai was happy!
Official salt, don't think you have to make a lot of money when you hear it's salt, and those who can make a lot of money are private salt!
Now the salt system of the Qian Dynasty is a partial monopoly system, and the official system is supplemented by the civil system, but the civil system is also accepted by the government, and the government is then transported to various places, and then the merchants buy salt!
The salt quote is also clearly written on the price, how much, and where it is shipped, all of which are clearly defined!
After that, the salt merchants took the salt and led it to the designated area for sale, and when they passed through the capital, county, and county, the imperial court also collected a toll tax from the salt merchants, up to 50 percent!
20 tons, 800 copper plates a pound is 20,000 silver a year, and half of the tax is removed, only 10,000 taels a year!!
Tired and sad!
He doesn't do this! ……
