Cai'er just came back from her mother's funeral today.

With the gold leaf given by Guo Tianyi, she exchanged it for fifteen taels of silver.

One tael of gold from Dafeng is equivalent to 15,000 copper coins.

This gold leaf has two halves.

According to the normal calculation, 1 tael of gold = 10 taels of silver = 10 copper coins = 10,000 copper coins.

One thousand copper coins is equal to one thousand coins.

One denarius of silver is approximately one hundred copper coins.

The cost of maintaining a soldier for a year is about one hundred and fifty guan.

This also includes food and salary.

A meat bun only costs one to two cents.

The waiter's salary in a tavern is only one penny a month.

In other words, a golden leaf is enough for an ordinary family of three to live a good life for more than half a year.

Cai'er went to mourn her mother today and invited Taoist priests, laborers and many other funeral personnel to hold a glorious funeral for her mother.

She planned to go to Guo Tianyi after the first seven days to repay his kindness.

Even if she is a maid, she is willing to do it.

She also discovered from yesterday's situation that Guo Tianyi definitely has a good background.

Being able to serve Guo Tianyi is also the best way out for me in this life.

Ancient people were not stupid either.

If ordinary people want to stand out, they must either obtain fame or have a skill.

However, children from poor families basically have no chance of obtaining academic honors, because most of them cannot even afford to go to private school, and they cannot even read a few Chinese characters.

Can only perform manual labor.

The better ones will spend money to find a master and learn skills from him.

Follow the craftsman's path.

You can also support your family.

Women are even more troubled. If they can't marry into a good family, their whole lives will be over.

"What a coincidence?"

"Little lady..."

"We meet again!"

Suddenly, Cai'er, who was walking on the road in sackcloth, heard Sima Hongyi's salty and salty voice, and her body trembled.

When she looked back, she found that she was surrounded by Sima Hongyi's evil slaves.

Sima Hongyi's face was bruised and purple, he licked his lips and said, "My dear lady, tell me, how should I punish you? Should I use a leather whip or a candle...?"

Sima Hongyi is very good at playing.

He played tricks that many modern people have never done before.

In ancient times, there was no high technology, no Internet, and not so many entertainment projects. We could only start with things between men and women.

So in many cases, ancient people definitely played better than modern people.

"you..."

"what are you up to?"

"We have no grievances. I am a weak woman, so just let me go..."

Cai'er was so panicked that she leaned against the wall and looked at Sima Hongyi's evil eyes, trembling.

Little did she know that these people had found her again like ghosts.

Today she deliberately chose the road with less people, but who knew she would encounter these bad people.

"Let you go?"

"Don't worry, I will definitely let you go."

"But it was also after I got tired of playing with you..."

"geigeigei..."

Sima Hongyi had a wicked smile on his face, stretched out his stupid hand, and grabbed Cai'er directly.

"ah....!"

"Scream, the more you shout, the more excited I will be..."

"No..."

"Don't worry, if you want it later, I will want it, hahaha..."

Sima Hongyi was not willing to let Cai'er go, so he directly tore a hole in the sackcloth she was wearing.

The sound of clothes being torn made Sima Hongyi more and more excited.

"Stop it!"

Cai'er's screams attracted the attention of a group of government officials. A young man with a fair face saw what was going on here and shouted directly.

"Um?"

"Who are you?"

"Dare you meddle in my Lord's business?"

Sima Hongyi was extremely angry. After seeing the clothes of the group of people opposite him clearly, he sneered and said, "Which yamen are you from?"

That's right, the young man in front of me is none other than the later famous minister, Cai Xuan.

He was born in the Legalist family and was also a very famous cruel official. His father was the chief historian of Kyoto Prefecture.

Now Cai Xuan has joined the Kyoto Prefecture again, taking over his father's position.

Cai Xuan's usage was severe and harsh. Later, after the King of Zhou ascended the throne, he assisted the King of Zhou in unifying the currency, implementing the official management of salt and iron, calculating minions and suing mins, attacking wealthy merchants, and tying down the tyrants and annexing their families.

In his middle and old age, he acted for the prime minister several times, and he was powerful and far superior to the prime minister.

It's just that Cai Yuxuan is still the humble and humble official.

Responsible for public security in Nancheng area.

Seeing someone teasing a common girl in broad daylight, the upright Cai Xuan would naturally not ignore it.

No matter what kind of powerful person he is.

As long as you break the law, you are guilty like the common people.

This is the character of an outstanding Legalist person.

"My name is Cai Xuan."

"Chief Shi of the Yamen of Kyoto Prefecture, you molest women in public, do you know your crime?"

Cai Xuan held his head high, looked at Sima Hongyi and said seriously.

"History of the governor of Kyoto Prefecture?"

"What the hell?"

Sima Hongyi had no idea what level of official Shi was, the official of the Kyoto Prefecture, but he did know that the Kyoto Prefectural Government was responsible for many affairs in the capital.

After having the experience of being beaten by Guo Tianyi, Sima Hongyi became a lot more angry.

"Hmph!" Cai Xuan snorted coldly and said, "No matter what rank I am, even if you are a young prince, you cannot know the law and break it. The emperor who breaks the law is guilty of the same crime as the common people. Do you know the crime?"

"Hey? Do you want me to plead guilty?" Sima Hongyi laughed sinisterly, looked at Cai'er and said, "Girl, tell this little official carefully, did I molest you?"

"You have to think carefully..."

"Didn't your mother just mourn?"

"Don't you have any other relatives in your family?"

"I have many connections and time. If you think about it carefully..."

"Give, give, give..."

Sima Hongyi was very thief today. First he looked at Cai'er calmly, and then threatened Cai'er.

I am the young Marquis of Shunshan.

You, a little girl, dare to fight with me?

I'm afraid I don't know how I died.

Not only will you die, but your family members will also be affected by you.
