Chapter 54 Helpers

He Li Bo ate a mouthful of vegetables and drank a mouthful of wine. He looked at the two people who were beaten, looking at the king who was holding a wine glass in one hand and did not send it to his lips. After watching it for a long time, he really couldn't stand it anymore, and put the wine glass on the table. Knocking on the wooden table, the wine glass "pong" sounded. The three looked at him at the same time.

"I said Yin Shijie, and you, Yu Danian. Aren't you two sighing just a little bit of silver? Just take it as spending money to learn a lesson." He Liba was also angry when he saw that the two of them were beaten, but they were quite in their twenties. They chatted several times, and He Liba was already straightforward.

Yin Shijie and Yu Danian looked at each other and seemed to have indescribable grievances. Yu Danian said, "This business is not profitable in the first place. I don't know how to go back and explain to the villagers."

"What kind of business do you do?" He Li Bo couldn't help but be curious.

"Well, let's just say it. Anyway, let's be a new road, and the result is still a nail?" Yin Shijie said

He Li Bo listened to them while eating while nodding to show that he was listening.'

The tall and thin one of them is called Yin Shijie, and the other fat one is called Yu Danian. These two brothers are cousins from Jincheng County, Zezhou.

I heard Yin Shijie say, "In the past two years, the price of the coal produced by our merchants is very low. It is said that the price cannot be sold in the capital, and the tax is still high. The villagers heard that there are many officers and soldiers near Yanzhou. We can make more money by selling it directly. That's it.

He Li Bo said, "How's it going? Make a lot of money, right?

Yu Danian curled his mouth on his big round face and said, "What are you making? Let's go to Bianjing first. It's really high, with a tax of 20 catties per catty. That's not bad. The tax drawn here is not lower than that of Bianjing, and it depends on the official's anger. If you are happy, you can smoke less. If you are unhappy, it's not fresh to draw 50 catties. I don't want to play a little bit. If we have that, we can't have that foot strength."

Wang looked at the three people in front of him. To be precise, he had been in a trance when he came back from the horse market. The woman in white, who was riding the white veil on the white horse from afar, stood in front of the flag of Xixia in the distance. Who is that woman around him? Wang Bian really hates that this piece of jade is not understandable. He even hopes that it is Liang Yuexia, but if she is really under the moon, Wang Bian doesn't dare to think about it. This kind of heartache is close at hand but far away.

The sound of He Li Bo squatting down the glass pulled him back from his thoughts. He looked at He Li Bo. He Li Bo did not look at the king, but ate slowly and chatted with the two people. Thinking that He Liba followed him all the way from his teacher, he promised Brother He that he would try his best to help him a few days ago. If he didn't cheer up, he wouldn't do anything to him.

Wang said, "This is really unreliable." At this time, he also turned his attention from meditation to their side.

Yin Shijie said, "Yes, our donkey will be a hundred catties when he is stuffed to death."

If He Li Bo doesn't explain it, he will make a lot of money if he sells it to the capital.

Yin Shijie took a sip of wine and said slowly, "Listen a lot. I'm just talking about the tax in the city gate. You can't go to the city to get a stall to sell. You have to go to a special carbon farm to sell it. There is still tax in this game. Let's say that we can't go all the way without entering one city. Passing through the state, city and county, even if it is a post station checkpoint, there will be tax. It's not a picky fee for people to eat horses all the way. Let's put it this way. We have to think about keeping our capital, and we have to carry 200 catties with us.

Yu Danian "That's similar to animals. That's why we think that one is to take a look at the calculation of the cost here, and the other is to find some good horses. Alas

After saying that, the two of them sighed together. Wang said in his heart and then asked, "What is the price you sell to the merchants?"

"Originally, one can sell six or seven pieces, but now it can't reach five pieces. If you sell it in the capital, you can sell more than 20 pieces. When I got home, there were still six or seven of them left.

Yin Shijie said, "These four or five families have strong physical strength, and they only produce more than ten or twenty yuan a year."

Wang couldn't help asking, "So little?"

"Less? This is still a lot. How long does it take from digging to the coal, and someone has to guard it. Sometimes we will fight when we rob the land. You can't dig in cold weather and earth, and you can't dig in the rain and water. Now you have to be coke or smokeless. If you find the right one, there is no smoke. If you have smoke, you have to coke and then sell it. This cost is not enough. How much can you calculate?

Yu Danian also rushed to say, "Yes, we still have people's tax, so we have to recruit rural soldiers. If you don't pay a high tax, you can choose a good day for training. This is not to mention the land tax head tax. It's only a few yuan per month. I'm still in danger of collapsing the hole.

He Li Bo said, "I have a big head. Do you understand me?

Wang said, "Just listen to the last sentence. How much money do you have? Let me ask you, how much is the monthly pay for a government official?"

He Liba thought about it and said, "Fifteen pieces, can maintain a family of four or five." He turned his head and said to Yin and the two people, "It seems that it is difficult for you to make money, but how can you two negotiate the price? Why don't you find someone older?"

The two looked at each other and said, "Then we have read some books, and we have a little in our hearts."

Yu Danian said, "Originally, it was not only to burn coal this winter, but also to make an iron weapon or something. There has been almost no war in the past two years. Besides, copper was not enough for cast iron money in various places. In the past two years, I don't know which grandson proposed to get some paper tickets, and the coal for casting money was used less.

He Li Bo's "p" smile almost sprayed the wine in his mouth on Yu Danian's fat face. Looking back at Wang, Wang didn't seem to hear it at all.

Yin Shijie said, "Don't talk about this paper ticket. It's not a paper ticket. We have to get a lot of iron money on the way."

He Libao smiled and said, "That's right, by the way, brother, you think it's not easy for these two. You have a lot of ideas. Can you help them? Besides, they still praise you, hahaha"

Wang looked at him and said to himself that he had just heard the man say that I was my grandson and deliberately looked at what I did.

Yu Yin and Yu looked at He Liba and didn't agree. Wang asked, "I have a way. Take out your friends and show me."

The two took out the paper money from their arms, and the king smiled after watching it. Pick it up and run out. Yu Yin and the other two were shocked and suddenly reflected that the king seemed to have robbed their banknotes, and hurriedly chased them out. He Liba wanted to chase him, but he was stopped by the shopkeeper and hurriedly paid for the wine and vegetables.

The county seat is not big, and the king has foot strength, so he ran to the county government in one go. The servient stopped, and he handed over the famous post.

Zhong Yi was looking at the case file in the hall. Hearing that Wang was coming, he came out to meet a fat and thin man beside Wang, and pulled his arm. When the seed instrument was drunk, it was pulled in front of the county government. What kind of style is it?

Yu Danian, Yin Shijie saw that he was the county magistrate and did not dare to pull it anymore. He stood on the foundation of the county government.

The king saluted the seed, my lord, these two people robbed my silver ticket. I got it back. As soon as Zhongyi heard the order, he took the two thieves to the hall.

Wang said, Your Excellency, they still have accomplices. Please inform the county that the official diplomatic office will withhold their accomplices if they receive such a silver ticket.

As expected, Zhong Yi ordered the ward to go to the official to shop for plain clothes after-sales service.

Wang Bian returned to the lobby with Zhongyi. Seeing that Yu Danian Yin Shijie was kneeling in the hall, Yu Danian was still at a loss, aggrieved and unjust face. Yin Shijie stared at the king.

Wang said to Zhong Yi with a smile, "Thank you, my lord."

Zong Yi was about to be promoted to the court but was stopped by the king, "Your excellency, wait, wait for the accomplice to retrial"

Two thousand words in the text, in fact, two hours, from He Liba pulled the king who didn't want to look at the horse back to the store from the city to the store, to drink and chat with the two people downstairs of the store, just for an hour or two hours. Before the wine was drunk, Wang Bian estimated that the people who cheated the horse money were greedy and would not come half-way to exchange for this handover.

This Jiaozi can only be used in the Song Dynasty, and only official traffic shops can be exchanged for silver. Let's catch the money change first.

Yin Shijie was unconvinced and said, "I said, Wang, why did you rob our silver ticket and bite back? Do you ask the adult to interrogate the adult at any time?

Zong Yi said, "The thief still dares to deny it. Come on, open your mouth."

Although it looks like a literati, it's really a little dignified. Wang quickly stopped him.

Yu Danian pulled Yin Shijie and motioned him to say less. Originally, the two of them were still blue and swollen and had just been beaten. Besides, the matter of buying and selling horses could not be investigated.

He Li Bo also chased after him. Wang whispered a few words to him, and He Li Bo turned around and went out.

Yu Danian and Yin Shijie's kneeling legs were numb. Seeing what Wang and the county magistrate were whispering, Zhong Yi frowned and smiled for a while, looked at it doubtfully, and finally nodded.

About half an hour later, the government official really brought two people here.

The two people were unlucky enough. Seeing that the horse market was almost dispersed, they changed their clothes and led the horse into the county. They wanted to exchange the silver ticket into silver. The shopkeeper took a look and gave him a servant in plain clothes. The two were locked and taken to the county government.

The seed instrument asked Wang to identify the silver ticket. Wang took it out and compared it and said it was right, exactly.

The county magistrate ordered the government office to search for the person who exchanged the silver ticket, and found the military charm of the Western Xia soldiers as soon as he searched. The two were sent to the military camp stationed in Yanzhou. They don't care how the barracks deal with them.

At this time, He Li Bo also took the stolen horse back to the government office. The king looked at the situation and Zhong Yi and smiled.

The horses were filial to the county government office. Yu Danian Yin Shijie took back the silver. When he returned to the mansion, he felt really hungry. He simply asked Xiao Er to send the wine and vegetables to the mansion room. The two of them invited the king to a banquet and resigned by the way.

After three rounds of drinking, Yu Danian said, I said, Mr. Wang, "Just tell us. Why do you let us kneel for a long time?"

He Libo laughed and said, "Who asked you to scold the person who proposed the silver ticket? Don't you know it's Mr. Wang?"

Yu Danian giggled: "In the future, we will follow the prince. This time, we will go back and do the things arranged by the prince first, and wait for the prince in Jincheng, Zezhou."

Yin Shijie asked, "The silver ticket is the same. How can you identify the silver ticket?" He asked and everyone looked at the king

Wang side smiled and said, "Of course you don't understand the matter of the official family, but you can't say it." What's so difficult about it? When he wrote to Renzong at the ** banquet, he also mentioned that it was printed by state, and the codes were different from state to state. These are all passwords hidden in the banknotes, and there are other uses in them, let alone tell them for the time being.

The king believed that there must be a way for him to sneak to Xixia. The king stood on the wall of Yanzhou and looked at the Xixia village camp in the distance in the moonlight.
