Chapter 164: Money Can't Buy It
"Okay! If you don't go, you won't go! ”
In order not to increase the burden of the weak country of Baiyun Kingdom, Ziyu, who wanted to draw a salary from the bottom of the kettle, could only endure it.
Whoever makes the emperor of the dynasty too weak, can only fight back externally, and internally is a rampant conquest, and it is strange that the position under the ass can sit firmly.
But if anyone dares to touch her Daxia Castle, then they will not be soft-hearted, and they will have to empty his lair.
Then he lit the house with another fire, and saw who dared to come.
Once he empties it, he has to scrape several layers of ground.
Now she is a strong soldier, and it only takes a year for the whole people to fight.
…
The soldiers at the city gate did not ask a single question when they saw the convoy leaving the city, and only strictly interrogated those who entered the city.
Ziyu in the carriage lifted the curtain and looked at the soldiers at the city gate.
The outstretched hand of an ordinary carriage flashed with silver light, and soon fell into the hands of the interrogating soldiers, and the carriage was released in the blink of an eye.
Ziyu lowered the curtain and stuck to Libai's side to tell him what had just happened.
"Hehe, this is normal, soldiers are also people, and they also have to support their families.
Isn't that exactly what you say about policies and countermeasures? "Libai is unimpressed.
"It's one thing to know, it's another thing to see with your own eyes, it's just an unfair world everywhere!"
"You call this sentimentality, take care of yourself, you didn't have this before.
This is touched by my love!
I still hope that you are cold-blooded, and the things that help the world are no longer suitable for you and me! Li Bai looked at Ziyu and said with deep meaning.
"I don't want to be left out by you, it's not easy for us to be together, and living in the moment is the best choice."
"You think too much, I just feel it, and I don't say what to do!
It's good to be a dissipating person, and when Xiao Luo grows up, we will go to the world. ”
Ziyu indecently shook a white eye, saying how much she was like a virgin.
"Okay, I'll accompany you wherever I want!"
When the two were chatting about inconsequential gossip, the motorcade had already arrived at the port, and Wang Xingwang and others, who had been guarding the deck, saw that a convoy was coming, and jumped off the boat to respond.
Without waiting for Ziyu and Bai to speak, Wang Xingwang had already brought people to move the goods onto the ship.
When the coachman saw that all the people who came down from the boat were ruddy-faced, and there was no patch on the clothes on his body, he was all envious.
After getting out of the car, the coachmen did not leave for a while, but stood aside and watched the people on the boat up and down enviously.
"Heizi, you go and ask your son, do they still want people to work." The mountain whispered to his companion.
"You also want to go, and you are not afraid that people will sell you to the mine." Kuroko is intended.
"As long as you can have food, you can sell it to the mines.
You don't know how difficult it is to do our business of driving cars now.
At the end of the day, it would be nice to be able to buy a day's rations. ”
……
The muttering voices of several coachmen were all heard by the two Ziyu who were standing not far away.
She beckoned to Wang Xingwang, who came over, and Wang Xingwang put down the cloth in his hand and strode over.
"Brother Purple has any orders!"
"Brother Wang, you go and talk to the coachman for a while and ask about the mine.
Farm tools in the city are out of stock, and prices have skyrocketed. ”
Ziyu mentioned it a little, and Wang Xingwang understood the meaning, and squeezed his eyes at the two of them.
"Just look at me!"
After many years of traveling from south to north, dealing with different people is Wang Xingwang's strength.
In terms of kung fu, it is not as good as the two masters in front of him, and it is no problem to talk about it.
Wang Xingwang, who rediscovered the value of existence, spoke to people with confidence.
Ziyu and Libai shook their fans and sent their sons on the boat.
…
After a cup of tea, the Great Xia left the port under the watchful eye of the coachman and headed for the town of copper smelting.
"Brother Zi, the iron ore of Dujiang Mansion comes from Yunling behind the copper smelting town.
There was not only iron ore but also copper and silver on that mountain.
Everything on the surface is in the hands of the government, and every year people disappear, and some serious criminals are exiled here to open mines.
There is a saying among the people that nine out of ten people can't get out, and the only one who comes out only has one breath left. ”
As soon as Wang Xingwang said what he had said, Ziyu and Libai thought about the reason for the sharp decline in the population here.
Later generations often said that there was a mine at home, which meant that they were rich and flowed with oil.
However, there are mines in Dujiang Mansion that have ruined the lives of countless people, so it is strange that the people can be retained.
In this male-dominated society dominated by labor, it is a blessing that there is no pillar in the family to survive, and there is nothing to talk about getting rich, and the rich are only the upper class and the government.
"Lord Futai should be very rich!"
Ziyu said a sentence without bounds, and no one understood what she meant except for Libai.
"Those who are officials must be rich! Famine and war are fatal things for the people, but they are just a drizzle for the officials. Wang Xingwang smiled bitterly.
The official has no money, I'm afraid that only Zhang Yuansi is the county magistrate of Xin'an County.
You have to rely on your own work to eat in order to fill half full, and I am afraid that there is no second county order in the world that is so sloppy.
Yu is a good official in the people, but the Yu family is a useless man.
Wang Xingwang thought of the virtuous Mrs. Zhang, as well as the ladies in his family, although they were from different backgrounds, they were all respectable women.
"Let's go to the copper smelting town to inquire first, it's best to buy ready-made farm tools.
If not, you can only go to the mine! Li Bai said the purpose of this trip.
Wang Xingwang looked at him in surprise and whispered.
"Senior brother, let's not go up the mountain to rob it!"
"Hehe, what's the matter!
You can't be delivered to your door! If you have the ability to send people to the door, you can call you big brother! Libai joked.
"Don't, don't make fun of my old king!
Then we'll do his vote, and the government won't do anything anyway.
A hoe sells for one or two halves of silver, and the hands are not ordinary black, and a few peasant families can afford it.
Saying that it is exempt from taxation is not a change of money.
I hope this year is a good year, otherwise how many people will not survive. ”
Wang Xingwang thought of those families who had lost their pillars, and couldn't help but cry for them, and that's all.
At this time, Wang Xingwang was very grateful for meeting Ziyu at the beginning.
Otherwise, if he drags his family with his mouth, like other families losing their pillars, how can they still live.
…
When the Great Xia arrived at the copper smelting town, it was already nightfall, and it was quiet everywhere.
There was not a single candle flame in the small harbor of Smelting Copper, and one or two small boats could be faintly seen floating on the water.
After Ziyu and Libai had a full meal with the people on the boat, the two disembarked at night, leaving Wang Xingwang and others to guard the ship.
The perimeter of the town is surrounded by a three-meter-high stone wall, and a wooden gate is closed.
Ziyu and the two stood in front of the dark gate, and they could vaguely hear the sound of tinkling iron inside.
Ziyu's eyebrows raised, secretly happy to have a play!
Without waiting for Libai to jump up with her, she ran a few steps and easily climbed onto the wall.
