Of course, there are public houses in Lin'an County, but this has long been out of consideration. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

The six space-time smugglers didn't want to deal with the government at all, and even if the armed forces of the county were added up now, they might not be able to catch them.

In the Southern Song Dynasty, there were generally no soldiers in the county towns that were not border towns, and their subordinates were government officials, equivalent to today's law enforcement officers.

It is also called the "three classes of officials" - fast class, strong class, and soap class.

fast, that is, fast, responsible for handling errands; Zhuang, composed of young Zhuang, is equivalent to the judicial police; Soap and soap are responsible for station followers and miscellaneous servants, that is, agency guards and security guards.

The specific number of people in Zhongxian County is taken as an example, 2 Menzi, 16 Sooli, 12 horsemen, 8 catchers, 7 sedan chair drivers and umbrella fans, 4 lamp drivers, 4 Ku pawns, 4 warehouse husbands, and 50 Minzhuang.

The subordinates of the government can also bring 3 or 4 "white ya", which is equivalent to temporary workers, and there is no establishment.

Therefore, on average, the actual commander of a county can be three or four hundred.

This is the level of a middle county, and the county seat of Lin'an may be less.

The six space-time smugglers are not afraid of this number, but are they here to fight? They're here to engage in smuggling, so how far can they get from the government!

Soon after, when they fully understood the situation, they somewhat regretted it, of course, this is an afterthought.

At first, they just wanted the shopkeeper to inquire about where they could rent a house in the city.

The shopkeeper smiled and said: "The guest officer doesn't know, such an idle thing, he has his own tooth to do, there are dozens of texts, he will be able to help you find it." ”

Mastercard also smiled, this guy in green clothes and black Baotou had white teeth, and he looked like a junior high school student who had dropped out of school to work, and he was the kind of teenager who really felt that he was very happy to work.

"Okay, you go and find me a tooth man, preferably a regular licensed intermediary------ if the matter is done, you will be indispensable for rewarding."

The shopkeeper was stunned, what is a regular licensed intermediary?

"Look, you'll have to go to school to find out. You go find one first. ”

They gave a reward last night, and they can give it this time, and the shopkeeper went out happily.

That is, in the time of fighting two or three landlords, he brought back a shrewd little old man.

When I asked, I found out that the people were only forty-eight, and the people at this time were old-looking.

After the Yalang understood the requirements of these tall men, he nodded and said: "This matter is easy to do, the merchants are from overseas, it doesn't hurt to not understand the rules of the Great Song Dynasty, of course you can live in a remote and quiet place......

He glanced at the costumes of these people, and knew that they were not even at the level of small customers, but only merchants from overseas.

In this time and space, those who have more than 100,000 assets are called big customers, and the following are collectively called small customers.

The tooth man promised to come back tonight.

When he left, his shrewd look reminded everyone of the ticket sellers on the square of the train station.

I don't know why, Zhang Guoan, Jing Jing, and Wan Shida were very happy after watching it, right, where did this person from the Great Song Dynasty come from so calmly and indifferently? There's got to be something we're familiar with!

The three of them also went out for a walk under the banner of looking for a house, all of which was for sightseeing.

For now, the three of them are more interested in this city than in the shops, so let the other three who like to do business go and do business with the people of the Song Dynasty.

You can't lose money on such a deal.

Renting was already quite active as early as the Northern Song Dynasty.

During the Song Dynasty, the big cities were populated, with many people and little land, and the population was highly mobile, so the housing self-occupation rate was not high, and many citizens had to rent houses.

The huge demand for rental housing in the cities of the Song Dynasty created a very active housing rental market, and people who had houses for rent in big cities basically had no worries about food and clothing.

Especially after going south, a large number of people who returned to the south objectively exacerbated this point.

So the natives of Jiangnan who had spare houses at that time were very good.

But this is only for big cities, and places like Lin'an County, which are almost in the mountains, should not be too difficult to rent.

In the plan, they wanted to find a more open place, preferably not in a residential area.

They had all asked the shopkeeper in advance, and they knew that there might be houses in the north of the city, on the riverside near Tianmu Creek, that they needed.

It's not a riverside community, it's an urban-rural junction.

Through the previous conversation with the shopkeeper, Wanshida has great confidence in his communication skills.

Otherwise, they wouldn't have acted in groups.

The three of them also pretended to walk indifferently in this world, and took out a picture of the nouveau riche in that world walking in the ancient Italian city.

Everyone is a little unaccustomed to the indifferent appearance of those passers-by, even if your eyes are showing a snatching gaze, don't take us for granted.

Brother is rich, really, and will be richer in the future.

They saw the mountains in the distance, which were swarthy in the morning sun, revealing an ancient charm, and then they looked at the residential buildings, which were the small Japanese towns they had seen in the pictures.

They slowly crossed two streets, turning onto a dirt road.

At this time, the Tianmu stream appeared in front of me again.

The stream is still not wide in this autumn, and there are some houses scattered on both banks.

Wanshida is ready to start asking, what are you doing idle, it is just an excuse to communicate.

They chose a house that looked like it had more rooms.

The courtyard of the house was made of bamboo fences, and you could see that there was a green vegetable garden inside, and there were no houses or anything like that.

Wan Shida waved his hand at Zhang Guoan, and asked him to step forward and knock on the door, and he was ready to answer the question.

At this moment, a donkey's bark suddenly sounded, which startled them!

They were so busy pondering others that they didn't notice that there was a donkey cart coming from behind!

Hong Qiaozu came to Lin'an County to meet his old friend here, the county commander Hu Jin.

Back then, when the two were studying in Jiankang, they met by chance and have made friends since then.

The county commander Hu Jin has only one son, and he coughs non-stop after autumn all year round.

Strangely, every time the child heard the sound of chanting, he was able to alleviate his symptoms.

The county commander Hu Jin therefore thinks that this child is related to Buddhism, but there is only this son, and he is reluctant to send it to Buddhism, which is very entangled.

He wrote to his friend Hong Qiaozu to ask for a solution.

Hong Qiaozu also knew a little about the functions of herbs, so he went up the mountain and dug up some herbs that could suppress cough and dried them, and sent them in person.

He wanted to persuade his old friend Buddhism to enter because of the circumstances, and it was best not to enter because of the need.

At the same time, he also prepared the "Twelve Karma Sutras" to see if he could help his friends.

Last night, he went to Lin'an County and lived in this house near Tianmu River.

This is the family business purchased by the Hong family in the early years, and there is still a small dyeing workshop behind this house.

Early this morning, he went to visit the county magistrate Hu Jin, and after explaining the intention, the result made his old friend fall into deep thought.

As for the child's condition, Hong Qiaozu has his own way.

He had the herbs decocted and served to the child to drink, and then he recited the Twelve Causes and Conditions, and the child fell asleep again in a stupor, and his cough was indeed light.

Hu Jin, the county magistrate, was very grateful for the help of his old friend and said, "I don't know what means the virtuous brother used? ”

Hong Qiaozu said: "Don't say it, don't say it. Come back early tomorrow morning. ”

After he finished speaking, he turned around and left, of course the county commander Hu Jin knew his temper, and he didn't stop him, and let him go.

So he came back in his donkey cart, and before the boy servant had yet reached the house, he whispered to him, "Judge, where are the great men you have seen on the road!" ”

Hong Qiaozu lifted the curtain of the sackcloth cart and saw that there were indeed a few big men he had seen on the road, and he felt that they were very tall at that time, and they walked almost faster than his donkey cart!

Even that tall woman won't let her eyebrows go!

But looking at their appearance and demeanor, I am afraid that they are overseas businessmen, not Song people.

The boy servant who was driving the car quietly poked the donkey's ass at this time, and there must have been a tacit understanding between them, and the donkey really barked, which frightened the three of them.

The three of them saw that the donkey cart was approaching, and a young man with an indifferent face came down from it.

At this time, Wanshida immediately stepped forward and asked: "I am a merchant who came to the Great Song Dynasty from overseas, and I want to find a house here, don't be surprised!" ”

Hong Qizu's head turned around, how could someone from overseas actually come from Tianmu Mountain?

I'm afraid there is another reason.

"Hehe, the three merchants don't know, this is Shangxi Village, I'm afraid there are no spare rooms.

That Xiaxi Village may have it, but I don't know. ”

At this time, there was a knock on the wood door behind them, and a strong man came out, only to see that his short clothes and turban were all colorful, and his face was still red.

This is probably the one who opened the dyeing room.

The man said boldly, "Da Yang is back!" I know that there is no spare room in Xiaxi Village! In the countryside, where there will be idle houses to rent to others, you can only find them in that county town! ”

Zhang Guoan said in his heart, damn it, there is a shortage of houses, is it very troublesome to build a house now?!

Seeing that it was noon, the three of them went back, they lost the desire to go to Xiaxi Village, and waited intently for the reply of that Yalang.

Back in the store, they found that the other three people had not come back, but they were not worried at all, those three people were sideways, to be honest, they were afraid that they would rob the Song people.

－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－

The other three who were in charge of business went out with excitement.

Being young, giving them confidence.

Such a good opportunity can't make a fortune again, it's really a second goods.

At that time, the three of them went out early.

When they were looking for the store, they had already set their sights on the big shops.

In addition to food, all handicrafts from this period are good!

Of course, calligraphy, painting and porcelain are hard currencies, but this is not in a hurry, take your time.

They had clearly discussed in advance that they would definitely take the pawnshop first, for the simple reason that they didn't have to make it old after they shipped it back, and they didn't have to care about the year, anyway, the things there must be very old.

The pawnshop in the Song Dynasty was called the Changsheng Library, and due to the increasing social and economic development of the Song Dynasty, the Changsheng Library (quality bank) was also developed.

Wealthy merchants, government officials, military forces, monasteries, and large landlords have all operated the business of lending money against goods.

In addition to ordinary gold, silver, pearls, and jade money, the items pledged by the Song Dynasty into the Changsheng Treasury sometimes even included living items such as slaves and maids, cattle and horses, while ordinary working people mostly used daily necessities as collateral. The loan time limit of Changshengku is short, the interest rate is high, and the price of the pledge is arbitrarily lowered, and if the loan is not repaid when due, the pledge will be confiscated, so many families go bankrupt.

So, ah, without money, it won't be good in any era.

The three people in charge of business were convinced of this.
