Chapter 051: The Queen's Life

Xiao Furong pressed Liu Zhang's hand on the stall and yelled at the old man: "You, what is his life?" ”

The old man looked at Liu Zhang's palm prints, groaned for a while, touched his beard and said, "Well, according to the old man's calculations, this must be a noble son, unspeakably expensive." ”

"That's accurate." Xiao Furong was surprised, Liu Zhang glanced at her with disdain, can it not be expensive if she has brought so many followers? However, it is not good to disturb Xiao Furong's interest, and it will not be exposed.

Xiao Furong stretched out her hand and put it in front of the old man, the old man glanced at it, and an incredible face slowly appeared on his face, and his eyes suddenly widened, and he exclaimed, "Oh my God, girl Quaker." ”

Xiao Furong was stunned by the old man's movements, and asked, "What kind of noble law?" ”

The old man carefully examined Xiao Furong's face again, and his face was full of surprise: "The girl's palm print is a rare phoenix pattern in the world, the forehead is shaken, and the red bird is a two-star arch guard, which is the image of the mother in the world, and the girl is the queen's life." ”

"Emperor, Empress? Are you sure? Xiao Furong looked at the old man steadily, and her joy had risen to her eyebrows.

"This old liar can really blow it." Liu Zhang scolded the old man in his heart, he was afraid that he would not be able to keep at least five taels of silver.

In the end, the old man asked Liu Zhang for eight taels of silver, and said a bunch of beautiful words, so that Xiao Furong forgot what her surname was, and left happily.

Xiao Furong said proudly to Liu Zhang: "Let you offend me, and when I become the queen of your Han Dynasty, I will punish you as a little yellow gate." ”

"Yes, Queen Mother Jin An, now we can go back." Liu Zhang has never seen such a deceitful person.

"Why are you in such a hurry to call me back?"

"Sleep."

"Huh?" Xiao Furong looked at Liu Zhang with wide eyes.

Liu Zhang: "......" knocked Xiao Furong's head suddenly, "What are you thinking, I didn't sleep all night last night, and now I'm very sleepy." Liu Zhang looked at Xiao Furong's radiant appearance, and really doubted whether his son's words about her who hadn't slept all night were true.

After Liu Zhang and Xiao Furong left, the owner of a sewing stall next to the "Heavenly Machine" smiled at the old man and said, "You can make a lot of money today." ”

The old man smiled proudly: "Your son pleases the beautiful girl, one is wronged, the other is brainless, don't lie to nothing, don't cheat, those who see it have a share, let's go to the tavern to have a drink later, count it mine." ”

Dongcheng Yin Mansion, Yin Bai returned to the mansion, and saw his father Yin Yuan and Old Man Yan in the lobby, Yin Yuan glanced at his son who was walking briskly and smiling, and asked with a straight face: "What is not a thing, how many times have I told you, joy and anger are invisible, what makes you happy like that?" ”

Yin Bai greeted Old Man Yan, leaned in front of his father and said: "Dad, don't you know, I saw a lot of novelties last night, mahjong, poker, chess, checkers, backgammon, but it's fun, you can't imagine it, poker has more than a dozen ways to play......"

Before Yin Bai finished speaking, Yin Yuan became furious: "Bastard things, are you just going to see these things?" is so frivolous, how can you inherit the family business in the future? I'm, at me. Yin Yuan held up the table and panted, and Old Man Yan hurriedly spoke comfortingly.

Yin Bai said unconvinced: "Dad, I haven't finished talking yet, I don't think these things are for fun, these things are so novel, we can sell them at our business, and what kind of chairs, pens, tables and benches will definitely make a lot of money, even porcelain and cloth are twice as cheap as the market price." ”

"Really?" Yin Yuan groaned: "In this case, you can give it a try." ”

"I'll just say it." Yin Yuan said with a smile: "I found out that we all had the wrong state pastor before, in fact, the state pastor is not so vicious, and very approachable, the reason why the Jiangzhou family suffered is completely because they don't take the state pastor too seriously, Dad, the state pastor has promised, in addition to the land order, the price limit order, there will be no excessive behavior towards our family, we should also support the state pastor......"

Before Yin Bai finished speaking, Yin Yuan slapped the table, pointed at Yin Bai and said angrily: "Are you going to be angry with me?" Can you also believe the words of officialdom? Especially Liu Zhang, Fucheng killed Yu An, Jiangzhou slaughtered the seven clans, was there any sign before? When Wang Fu was about to behead Anmanmen, none of us knew what was going on.

Liu Zhang is used to hiding a knife in his laughter, talking and laughing and killing people, how can you be so confused that you believe his words to appease us? As long as we compromise with him today, tomorrow he can push us back one more step and finally push us into a corner.

The Land Order has almost cut off the space for our race to expand, do you think you can make up for it by selling a few novelties? You remember, no matter how much money you make, it is not as important as land, and if you can't spend all the money you earn, one day the shepherd government raises taxes, raises the coinage, or issues new coins like Wang Mang, your money will be worthless.

Land is the foundation of the world, without land, you are nothing, there are four disciplines, the opportunity for the world to be a member of the family is mostly occupied, in the long run, we can only decline, Liu Zhang is digging our foundation, you still help him speak, are you dizzy? ”

Yin Bai looked at Yin Yuan's angry appearance, he was not convinced, but he couldn't say it anymore, and said with a smile: "Dad, joy and anger are invisible, and joy and anger are invisible." ”

"You ......"

"Old friend, dissipate, dissipate." Old Man Yan appeased Yin Yuan, sighed and said: "I see that the land order is in a hurry, as an old friend said, Liu Zhang has a knife hidden in his smile, rare tyranny, and hard resistance will inevitably suffer disaster, it is better to let these descendants cater to Liu Zhang's policy and open business, there is no harm to us, and let the pastoral government reassure us."

I have lived for such a long time, and I have never seen an official who can disobey the world for a long time, Liu Zhang is perverse, one day Xichuan will be in chaos, we can just wait for changes. ”

Old Man Yan remembered Liu Zhang's words again: "Now is not the time to harvest rice...... It's a pity that Pang Xi is too unsuccessful."

Yin Yuan nodded with a deep groan, and now it can only be like this.

More than a month has passed, in addition to the official firms, almost all the businesses of all clans in Chengdu have imported the goods of Yushu Street, and the ordinary people soon followed suit, less than a month, there are chairs and tables for sale in the streets and alleys of Chengdu, and there is an endless stream of people to buy, and the three-character workshop has expanded four times and is in short supply.

With the fountain pen, officials and non-old-fashioned readers have thrown the brush aside, and the articles that usually take an hour to complete can now be done with a stick of incense, which greatly improves the efficiency of officials and the number of articles produced, and there are more mahjong and poker in the casino, and business suddenly soars.

What makes the people happiest is that although the quality of daily items such as cloth and soap is slightly worse, the price is more than twice as low as before, and the cost of living is greatly reduced.

In the face of such an attractive price, although foreign businessmen have resistance to Yizhou, they can't help but come to buy, and the endless flow of orders has made the government-run workshops expand rapidly, and the variety has increased from ten to more than 30, covering almost all aspects of the daily life of the people.

Low prices, coupled with the high wages compared to farming, the people at the bottom led by Yushu Street began to get rid of poverty, Chengdu became more prosperous, and capitalism began to emerge.

There are still a few days left to be the day of the four imperial examinations in Chengdu, and the trials (martial artists, craftsmen, doctors and scholars, so call it) poured into Chengdu City.

Gan Ning passed all the way, and at this time came to Chengdu in a gorgeous costume, and his arrogance was incomparable.

At the gate of the city, Aguda silently prayed that Chengdu would be like Jiangzhou, and that he would never be tested to write Chinese characters.

Only Zhang Zhongjing and Zhou Budo looked down-and-out, and Zhou Budo glanced at Zhang Zhongjing from time to time, angry and unhappy.

How could he have thought that Zhang Zhongjing, who was already stupid, would treat a peasant woman who fainted in the field in Fucheng, and finally poured money to the patient, spending all the travel expenses issued by Jiangzhou, and was not allowed to deceive people to make money, so that the two almost begged to Chengdu.
