Chapter 105 The Doubt About Gold 】

When Shen Zhezi returned to Wukang, it was already the twelfth lunar month, and the Shen family and the Yan family had already finalized the farm deal and it was in progress.

Wuzhong has not seen such a large transaction for a long time. There are more than [-] hectares of cultivated land alone, including the ridges, rivers, fruit trees, water reels, etc. within the scope of the manor, as well as the walls of the manor itself. , The amount involved in the transaction is so large that it is simply beyond people's imagination.

When Shen Zhezi returned to Longxi Manor, all the civil servants in the family had already gathered here, just like last year's field acre inventory, and the specific value accumulated by all the properties of these manors was cleared all night long.

Seeing that Qian Feng's eyes were bloodshot and he was still holding the abacus in his hand, Shen Zhezi couldn't help laughing and said, "Why is uncle so serious, the left and right are just trying to lure people into the game first."

Qian Feng couldn't help laughing after hearing this: "Xiao Langjun said yes, but since there is this opportunity, it would be good to liquidate the land property again. Last year, I only checked the land and the population, and many details were not involved. Give these documents The officials need to be more tempered in their duties, and they will be able to deal with such needs more easily in the future."

When Shen Zhezi heard this, he couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart. Before he swallowed the fat in front of him, Qian Feng had already started to think about the future.However, he was quite satisfied when he saw that the clerks in the room were getting more and more proficient in accounting and auditing.

Regarding the cultivation of talents, it has finally achieved initial results.Shen Zhezi can guarantee that the group of clerks in the room is definitely the most leading and professional accounting team nowadays.In order to take back the dominance of Yinjue's salary from Yu Tiao in the future, he must rely on the strength of this group of talents!

Taking advantage of the leisure time, Shen Zhezi took a copy of the general ledger of Tiaoxi East Manor and looked through it, but after a while he was overwhelmed.It's not that he can't figure out those large numbers, but that the various trading items are really dizzying.

Nowadays, buying and selling transactions involving money, silk, grain, cloth, etc. in parallel are already chaotic enough, but once this kind of large-scale transaction is reached, the original trading items with monetary attributes will become even more unusable.

Because Yan's request was very urgent, the Tiaoxi East Manor has been delivered.This manor has a total of more than [-] hectares of slopes, ridges, and paddy fields. There are many miscellaneous items besides the house, and the value of all the manors traded is relatively high.

Shen Zhezi could see that the discount standard for various commodity transactions was marked in the first entry of the account, which was converted based on the average price of rice in the past three years.This standard alone has already killed the Yan family. You must know that last year due to the war and the lack of food in the Shen family, various families drove up the price of food, hitting a record high. As a result, the Shen family was not harmed, but the Yan family reaped the consequences.

Calculated by this standard, one mu of land can be compared to ten bolts of silk, and one hectare is worth a thousand bolts. The cultivated land in Tiaoxi East Manor alone is worth hundreds of thousands of silk.However, silk is not only a commodity but also a currency. With such a large demand, the price will inevitably rise sharply.If the Yan family paid all in silk, the price paid would definitely be several tens of thousands.

Therefore, the list of goods provided by the Yan family is also dazzling. In addition to money, silk, and grain, there are also salt, fish, bamboo, wood, gold and silver, etc., as well as human beings, and even reeds and other materials for the Shen family. select.In the end, the transaction was completed, and nearly ten kinds of materials were used!This is just the transaction of Tiaoxi East Village. If other estates are included, the transaction will definitely be more complicated.

Although Shen Zhezi has adapted to the current era, he is still a modern soul after all, and he is really incapable of accepting such backward means of payment.But he also knows that currency reform is a matter of mobilizing the whole body. With his half bucket of financial knowledge, he dare not play around. He also needs to consult the current professionals, and at most provide some of his own views for their reference.

Qian Feng seemed to think of something suddenly, and beckoned to Shen Zhezi: "Young Lord, please follow me."

Shen Zhezi followed Qian Feng into the inner room, and then saw Qian Feng take out a satin-wrapped brocade box, carefully opened it, and a golden light shone on Shen Zhezi's face. Gold Cake!
Shen Zhezi is no stranger to gold, last time Yan Ping even gave him a small box, but the color was much darker than what he saw before.He naturally knew the saying that gold has no pure red, seven green, eight yellow, nine five red, the purer the color, the higher the purity.In comparison, the box in front of me is naturally much purer, but what mystery is there that deserves Qian Feng's serious treatment?

Qian Feng explained with a smile: "Gold is so pure, not to mention Wu Xing, even Jiangdong is extremely rare. Even I have only seen it a few times in General Wang's account. Such a fineness and casting must be from the Han Dynasty." There is no doubt that time is golden!"

Hearing this, Shen Zhezi slightly understood what Qian Feng meant.

The most famous allusion about jinjin is that during the reign of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, jinjin won the title. The princes offered wine and gold to sacrifice to the ancestral temple. A large number of people lost their titles and died due to lack of gold.Thick burials became common in the Han Dynasty, and a large amount of gold was buried deep in the ground as funeral objects. Even Cao Cao sent soldiers to dig Han tombs for military use.

The Yan family lived in Jiangdong, and Jiangdong was a barren land in the Han Dynasty, and there were not many Han tombs.At present, even rich people like the Shen family have neither the demand nor the technology for smelting.Now that the Yan family is in a hurry, they have come up with so much gold, the source of which is self-evident.

Needless to say the value of the gold, even if Jiehu who went south to plunder needs to rely on the Yan family to lead the way, he can share the harvest. It seems that there is no need to give away so much precious gold, right?

Originally, Shen Zhezi only thought that the Yan family was just Jiehu's leading party, but now it seems that this master-slave relationship seems to be worthy of careful consideration.

Seeing Shen Zhezi lost in thought, Qian Feng knew that his reminder had been understood.The more he learned about this little man's ability, the more Qian Feng admired him.

"Thanks to my uncle, who is as careful as a hair, and found this clue. Those Jiehu bandits, on the contrary, have to rely more on the Yan family. From this point of view, the strength of the Yan family is even more overestimated. In this case, the loss of the salt industry may not be able to hurt The foundation of his family is still willing to buy my property at a low price right now, it seems that something big is brewing."

Shen Zhezi sneered, the Yan family was deeply rooted in Jiaxing, covered by a large area of ​​reed ponds, it was really difficult to find out what was going on inside.He can only guess based on a lot of side evidence, and it is normal to be biased occasionally.But now that the bureau has been laid, the Yan family will undoubtedly die.

However, if more inside information can be found out, things will naturally be more secure and unnecessary losses can be avoided.After pondering for a while, Shen Zhezi decided to personally investigate the reality of his family. At the same time, he said to Qian Feng: "It is enough for my uncle to hand over the accounts to the clerks. The family's military equipment will be distributed as soon as possible, so there is no danger."

Qian Feng nodded, showing that he knew the seriousness.

After Shen Zhezi left the accounting room, he ordered more than a hundred elite Longxi soldiers, and at the same time hundreds of elite soldiers, and went to the manor in a mighty way.

At this time, Shen Mu rode his horse and rushed from outside the manor. Seeing this posture, he couldn't help being startled. When he saw Shen Zhezi surrounded by the crowd, his eyes lit up, he turned around and laughed, "Qingque wants Where are you going to cause trouble? Why don't you call me to go with you?"

Shen Zhezi saw that Shen Mu's cheeks were powdered, his temples were clipped with flowers, and his brows and eyes were even more flirtatious, with a nondescript look.

With a move in his heart, he motioned Liu Meng to take Shen Mu off his horse, press him on the ground and tear off the sideburns, and then said with a smile: "You martial artist, you should look like a martial artist. Fu Fen wears flowers and looks like a woman. Next time If I see it like this, you are not allowed to leave the manor!"

Shen Mu looked embarrassed after being rectified, but in front of Shen Zhezi, he had no dignity to talk about, patted the dust on his body indifferently, and said with a smile: "I have no choice but to look like this to win Wu Xinghan's favor. Actually I'm also uncomfortable, just now I had a fight with Chen Jiaerlang, and the banquet broke up unhappy."

Shen Zhezi frowned when he heard this, he had seen Shen Mu brave, he was already considered a mighty fighter at a young age, he was worthy of the Shen family's martial arts style.However, since the third grade was discussed in the township, the elders of the clan deliberately guided him to the way of Xuan Confucianism, which made this guy at a loss.

"Then Wu Xinghan's interests are different from yours. Since they are not compatible with each other, they are not a good match. Second brother, you don't have to go after that lady anymore. The family has already discussed marriage for you, and she is a senior family of the He family in Kuaiji. Others Think about it, don't think about it at all."

Shen Mu's expression changed when he heard this: "Where did you hear that, Qing Que? I've gotten along a lot recently, and I also feel that Yao's girl doesn't quite match me. It's just that I've been in love with her for a long time in the past, and it's hard to let go for a while." ...The He clan's noble family, I ask myself that I am not worthy, there is still an elder brother in the family, why must I be chosen?"

"It's not something you should consider. I'm just putting a bid on the matter of marriage. Since I have rice and food at home, there are always things that I can't refuse."

Seeing that Shen Mu's face was full of thoughts, Shen Zhezi persuaded him, it's best if he can think about it, if he can't think about it, then hold back: "Do you still want to make trouble with me? If you don't want to, go back to Zhuang!"

"Go, why not go!"

Shen Mu shook his head and got on Shen Zhezi's ox cart, a little affection was not important in his heart, and after a while he asked with a smile, "Where is this going?"

"Tiaoxi Dongzhuang."

Within the same county, after an hour, everyone had already crossed the Tiaoxi pontoon bridge, and the Dongzhuang that the Shen family sold to the Yan family was vaguely in sight.

This manor was acquired by the Shen family in the middle of the year. Due to lack of manpower, less than half of the land has been cultivated this year, and the rest of the land is in rotation.Walking closer, Shen Zhezi saw many farmers plowing and drying the fields.

Turning the field and loosening the soil in winter can achieve a little effect of weeding and increasing income.But the land is cold and hard, and the manpower consumption needs to be doubled.The Shen family's farming is a business, and although there are many acres of land, there is not enough manpower, so this process is often omitted, and the plowing is only done in a hurry before spring sowing.

Once the Yan family acquired the manor, they mobilized a large number of shady households to cultivate intensively. The sufficient manpower really made Shen Zhezi envious.When he attacked the Yan family, the biggest thing he wanted was the population, and he didn't care much about floating wealth such as money and goods.Right now, the farmers in the fields are regarded as their own family members.

A group of people continued to move forward and arrived at the gate of the manor. They saw that a defensive formation had been set up behind the gate. It seemed that the Yan family had already received information.

"Zhezi Xiaolang-jun, why do you want to visit my house? With such a situation, those who don't know will inevitably misunderstand."

The smile on Yan An's face was a little stiff, and it was rare for him to lower his posture. Seeing hundreds of people from the Shen family approaching aggressively, he felt uneasy.

"You are worthy of my visit! Your family is in trouble, and my family's help is very righteous, and you dare to lower the price of my farm!"

Shen Zhezi looked domineering, and waved his finger forward: "Remove the gate of this manor for me!"
