Chapter 261: Lack of Money
When I returned to the city, for some reason, Qin Yu and Lu Xiao were on the bar.
"This is my sixth aunt!" Qin Yu hugged her left leg and emphasized.
Not to be outdone, Lu Xiao hugged her right leg, "This is my aunt, my aunt." ”
"Mine is also dear, dear aunt."
Qin Sheng on the side widened his eyes, he wanted to say, get out of the way, this is my daughter-in-law!
The two legs were hugged separately, and Lu Songli couldn't walk directly.
Qin Sheng picked up a child in one hand, directly picked them up, sent them back to their parents, and gave them a look, asking them to take care of their children.
Qin Sheng, who was empty-handed, returned to Lu Songli's side, stretched out his hand to protect his daughter-in-law and moved forward, "Let's go." ”
Qin Zhao: Out of breath!
Jiang was very happy to see his daughter and son-in-law like this.
Outside the city gate, everyone began to line up to enter the city.
Lu Songli looked at it slightly, there were about 300 people who followed their Qin and Lu families to settle in Houcheng, among them, there were more than 40 children under the age of 10, and more than 10 people from 10 to 14 years old.
If you think about this number, you can understand that most of the people who are willing to follow them, such as Zhou Damajin and others, are in the prime of life, or have not married, or have just been married for a few years, and the children have just been born for a few years, and they are still young. Most of these older children over the age of 10 are their younger brothers or nephews.
Lu Songli pondered, there are so many children, they have to build a private school, and the small trees can't be cultivated without cultivation, so they can't let them play around.
There were about 300 people in their group, and it took a lot of time to enter the city to register.
When a group of them entered the city, it was also immense, and when the people of Houcheng saw it, they inevitably asked a question or two. Recently, people have been moving back to Houcheng one after another, but it is rare to see such a large group of people moving to Houcheng at the same time. And watching their carriage with a lot of luggage, dragging their families into the city, it didn't look like they were passing by.
Lu Songli didn't hide it, and directly said that Lord Lu's clansmen moved to Houcheng to settle down.
After the news spread, the people of Houcheng seemed to have taken a reassuring pill.
Let's all live in Houcheng with peace of mind, and call back our relatives who have fled in other places, where is Houcheng safe. Think about it, if it's not safe, how can Lord Lu move all the people here?
More than 300 people, about 50 or 60 families, all arranged to live in Sweet Water Village. Houses are divided according to households, and those with a large population will get a larger house, and those with a small population will get a smaller house.
That's the official distribution.
All the houses were inspected beforehand to ensure that they were sturdy and safe, and if there was damage to the roof doors and windows, there were also minor repairs.
If they are not satisfied, they will find another place to live, or change them privately, they don't care.
Just when everyone was busy moving into their new residence, Yang Wei, Wu Ren and Hu Guangcong came to Lu Songli and them with a suitcase.
"The prince of the world, the sixth lady, the third master, the sixth master, this is the money we earned this time, and we have exchanged it all for gold for convenience."
"Except for the two brothers who didn't come to Houcheng with us, we gave them their share of the silver they deserved, and also gave Lord Lu three thousand taels of silver according to your instructions.
Everything else is here. ”
"How many?"
"It's about fifty-two thousand six hundred taels, and it's all converted into gold."
Lu Songli calculated, at the beginning, they invested less than 20,000 taels of silver, and some of the medicinal materials were sent to Longcheng, and she collected them at a price two percent higher than the cost.
That's three or four times, huh?
"Sixth lady, don't you know, our medicinal materials were shipped to Chang'an, it was very popular, and it was robbed like crazy, not to mention the price we sold at that time, even if it was sold by two or three percent, it was no problem." It's a million profits!
Speaking of it so far, the three of them can't hide their excitement.
Lu Songli nodded, she looked at Qin Heng, "Big brother, third brother, Ah Sheng and I mean that this money is divided among the brothers, right?" It's time to pay them a settling-in fee. ”
Later, they also invested 1,000 taels each, and they said that the silver and the money they earned were all shared by Zhou Da and other brothers who went to the north to escort Qin Yan and his party.
Qin Heng nodded, "Okay, that's it." ”
Qin Zhao: "I'm fine. ”
Qin Sheng: "Listen to Lili." ”
They immediately beat the gongs and drums, gathered the people, and began to divide the money!
In this distribution, Lu Songli and other decision-makers did not participate, so the amount of silver distributed by each family was relatively even, about 600 taels.
Before dividing the money, Lu Songli suggested that four or five thousand taels be set aside as the cost of maintaining the village. In the future, the villagers who live in Tianshui Village will directly spend money from this money if they have any public expenditures. In this way, it is better than having people pay for it later.
Every family has received money, and everyone doesn't mind the four or five thousand taels that have been siphoned off, not to mention that Mrs. Qin Liu said that this silver is used as a public expenditure in Sweetwater Village, and this silver will be used on them.
In the evening, return to the Houcheng military camp
Lu Songli took a shower and wiped her hair against the window in the room.
In the room, the oil lamp was burning.
Her eyes fell on the white paper on the table, and Lu Songli had been thinking about how to run Liaodong County well recently.
Yes, run Liaodong County, not Houcheng.
She thought that the court's commendation should come down soon. With her father's credit, it will definitely go up one more liter. Her father is further up, and he is the county guard.
The negotiations, the absence of the assassin and the county guard of Liaodong County, no matter what the reason, is an established fact anyway. For the imperial court, the Assassin's Mansion is in Liaoxi County, which can be said to be reasonable, but Zheng Xun is definitely derelict in his duties.
Therefore, Lu Songli speculated that her father should be the next county guard of Liaodong County.
Zheng Xun will be transferred to another place.
In order to run Liaodong County well, it is first necessary to encourage spring ploughing, and it is best to distribute some seeds to the poor people who cannot afford to buy grain seeds to help them tide over the difficulties. As for whether you want to plant some suitable cash crops in the future? Then add it up.
But her father has seen it, the treasury of Houcheng County is so empty that it can run mice, and Houcheng is a poor county.
Secondly, she also wants to trim the official road. After all, a large wave of zombies, no, a large wave of talents are on their way to their Liaodong County. Serve these people well, make sure they feel at home, and beat the good reputation of Liaodong County. Of course, it's better to keep these people.
It's really a headache to spend money anywhere.
This time they spent a lot of money on the negotiation with the Xianbei Royal Court. Her box of the best gems was spent, and the box that her eldest brother had given her was also exchanged for money, and she also spent a lot of silver.
But Lu Songli felt that the gold, silver, jewelry, and money were well spent, after all, they had won the entire Liaodong County.
When Qin Sheng came in, he saw that she was knocking on his forehead, and couldn't help but ask with concern, "Lili, you have a headache?" ”
"yes, I have a headache, how can I get money quickly?" Lu Songli said unconsciously.
When Qin Sheng heard this, he blinked, his daughter-in-law has no money? How can this be!
"Lili, you say, how about I lead the troops to clear out the bandits and bandits in Liaodong County?" This is the fastest way he can think of to get money.
"Bandits?" Lu Songli's eyes lit up.
Because of the continuous war in Liaodong County, there are a lot of fallen grasses.
There is no way, in Houcheng, the common people are the bottom, and even the bandits and bandits live better than them. For example, when encountering Xianbei soldiers, ordinary people may not survive, but bandits and bandits can take weapons and overthrow them.
But these bandits are not less troublesome in the township in normal times.
Lu Songli boasted, "It's a good idea, clean up the bandits, and give the people a bright sky, very good." ”
Qin Sheng was excited, "Really? ”
"Of course, you talk about this idea to our father, and then ask him to help you talk to Master Le. It should be fine. ”
"Okay, Lili, don't worry about the silver." Next, you'll have a lot of silver.
"Okay, I'm not worried." What's better than black eating black money?
The couple looked at each other and smiled.
