Section 0501 It's expensive
Li Shimin's accession to the throne, the biggest regret is that there is no jade seal of the country.
Liu Mu remembered that there was a record in history that it was after crippling Jieli and destroying the Later Sui that the jade seal of the country returned to Chang'an. But Liu Mu heard another story from the remnants of the former Sui.
That is, Yu Wenhua and got the jade seal of the country, and then Dou Jiande defeated Yu Wenhua and got the jade seal of the country.
This point has also been confirmed by Li Yuan, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, but Tang destroyed Dou Jiande but did not find the jade seal of the country, and now the jade seal of the country is there, it seems that there is a gap with the simple record of history, and Li Shimin has regained the jade seal of the country in the fourth year of Zhenguan.
Li Shimin does not believe that the jade seal of the country is in the hands of Empress Xiao at the moment, if Li Shimin fights with the Turks even if he fights with the Turks, he will snatch back the jade seal of the country. Therefore, Liu Mu suspected that the jade seal of the country was secretly stored by Princess Yicheng at the moment.
Liu Mu believes that it is likely that the Turks were crippled in history, and Princess Yicheng returned the jade seal to Yang Zhengdao before she died, and then Yang Zhengdao surrendered with the jade seal to save his life.
At present, as analyzed by Li Shimin, the new emperor of the Tang Dynasty, if the jade seal of the country is in the hands of Yang Zhengdao, I don't know how many people in the Later Sui Dynasty will kill Yang Zhengdao and Empress Xiao, and take the jade seal of the country to the Tang Dynasty to ask for merit and reward.
Liu Renliang put it in the wine glass: "The two of them don't know, right?" ”
"Right now, only five people know about it. You, I, Li Jing, Li Daozong, Hug Qin. ”
Liu Renliang didn't ask again, why did Liu Mu's side know about it, but there must be a reason why people who are qualified to know such a confidential matter.
Liu Mu said again: "Okay, don't be so nervous. The final decision is not in my hands, Senior Brother Yao is still studying the arrangement of troops, if there is no possibility of running, then give up, the sage did not ask for it, he wanted to take the lives of the soldiers to find a stone, the only thing to worry about was that he was afraid that the dog would jump off the wall. ”
"Understood." Liu Renliang nodded heavily.
Liu Mu put down his chopsticks: "Have a good rest and wait for the military order." ”
After Liu Mu left, only Liu Renliang was left here alone, and Liu Renliang didn't drink anymore, just sat silently, thinking about what Liu Mu had just said.
The next day, Liu Mu heard that the meeting with Tumidu was postponed by a day, and took Su Wuling to the hot springs of Warm Water Township.
The hot spring culture of the Japanese people has existed for thousands of years, and Su Iling, who has not been back to his hometown for a long time, was very happy after coming to the hot springs, and had a smile on his face all day.
Baoqin sat in the hot spring wearing a fine linen robe and willow wood.
"Lang Jun, the price of grain north of Bingzhou has risen." Baoqin whispered to Liu Mu, "I got the news last night. ”
"How much has it gone up?"
"A lot, sorghum has risen by twenty dollars a stone." Huqin gave Yanagi a number.
Liu Mu calculated in his heart that the price of goods in Chang'an had begun to stabilize, and one stone of sorghum had dropped to about 100 Wen, and one stone of polished rice was only 140 Wen.
A fifth-up is already a huge number.
Seeing Liu Mu pondering, Baoqin said to Liu Mu: "When we were in Lingnan, I heard that the plains on the other side of the Funan Mountains are three crops a year, and their rice yield must be higher than that in the north. There are also places in Lingnan that are two years and five crops, but they don't know how to use fertilizer, and the yield is not high. ”
Liu Mu stretched out his hand to hug Qin's waist, and then turned his head: "You mean, the grain business from Lingnan?" ”
"The rice in Lingnan is not delicious, but the rice in Murowei is delicious."
Liu Mu was a little surprised, and asked with a smile: "It's good to be full, but now I'm still picking the origin of rice, it's really embarrassing." Well, what the hell are you going to tell me? ”
"I want to ask Lang Jun you, there is a lot of rice in Lingnan, so is it a ridiculous idea to sell rice from Liaodong to Lingnan. In other words, the same rice can be as low as 100 yuan a stone and as high as 200 yuan a stone. The price of sorghum in the north of Bingzhou is not because there is not enough food, but because the state capitals believe that their sorghum is better than that of Chang'an. ”
Liu Mu was taken aback, Baoqin was self-taught, and he had studied it to this extent.
Liu Mu asked, "So, what is the price of sorghum for the people of Murowei?" ”
"There is no offer, because the people of Murowei have just started growing sorghum and are not very good at planting. But their soybeans are much higher than the price of soybeans around Chang'an, and their soybeans have more oil than Chang'an's, and they are fragrant. ”
"If you have an idea, I recommend you to really become an official after returning to Chang'an." Yanagi smiled happily.
Baoqin didn't answer, the matter of a woman being an official has not been seen in all dynasties.
But that doesn't mean that Datang won't have it.
"Baoqin, do you guess what price Senior Brother Yao will set for the canned food of Tu Midu?" Yanagi pulled the topic back to the can.
Hearing this, Baoqin said confidently: "Six guan is the lowest, and some very rare fruits should be able to reach ten guan." ”
Ten times, this number scared Yanagi.
Ten taels of silver is ten taels of silver, even if it is placed in the braid with the lowest silver price, this is also a sky-high price.
And Datang was ten times at this time, which was equivalent to at least 50,000 yuan in later generations.
"Is it expensive?" Baoqin asked in a low voice after watching Liu Mu's reaction.
"Isn't it expensive?" Liu Mu also asked Baoqin rhetorically.
Baoqin smiled: "Lang Jun has seen cherries sold in Chang'an Market?" ”
Let Baoqin ask this, Liu Mu said that he really hadn't seen it, Baoqin explained: "The fruits are all grown by the nobles, even if they are traded, they are traded with other big nobles, and the only things that the people can eat are dried dates and persimmons." ”
Yanagi understood, and there was indeed no fresh and difficult to preserve in the market.
Moreover, the Tang Dynasty does not have any economic fruit forests in the real sense, and the fruit forests are all the self-reserved land of the great nobles.
"That canned tube is a steel cylinder, and that steel cylinder alone is worth five hundred dollars, and it is not surprising to sell it for one or two on the grassland. Speaking of fruits, one pound of fruit is transported here from Chang'an, and two pounds of grain need to be consumed on the road, and it is transported from thousands of miles away, and one hundred stones of grain can leave ten stones. ”
Baoqin kept talking about the details of these small accounts on the side.
Liu Mu admitted that he really ignored these, and that the price of wool, transportation costs, etc., had been calculated by someone for him, and he only managed to make plans.
Suddenly, Liu Mu thought of two jokes in the later life.
One is when someone is studying in the country of sticks, the sticks take out an apple and cut it into eight parts, give one and ask, you must have never eaten an apple. But I don't know that the family bought apples from wheelboxes.
The second joke is that someone bought a square watermelon in Wajima, which was almost discounted for several thousand yuan, but it turned out to be not as delicious as a pound of money in China, and the cheap Wajima watermelon also cost a few hundred yuan a piece.
