Chapter 492: The Moonlight Clan of the Han Dynasty (first published by Qidian)
"I've disturbed my lord to rest..." Cui Hou blinked his small eyes, feeling a little embarrassed.
As soon as Jia Qu left, Cui Hou came. It seemed that it was not just right, but he had been waiting outside for a long time. After seeing the banquet end, he ran over to ask for a visit.
"It doesn't matter." Fei Qian smiled and asked the maid to prepare some thicker tea soup to refresh herself. As a leader, you must have this awareness, especially in a situation like this that has just begun. If you only know how to enjoy yourself all day long, you will have to do something.
He just throws things away after giving orders and becomes a god of sleep. He is not in the mythical state of being immune to all debuffs in the game, otherwise chaos will inevitably occur sooner or later.
I don’t know why, even though Fei Qian is younger than him, he seems to be very knowledgeable about everything and can’t solve any problem. Looking at Fei Qian’s gentle smile, Cui Hou’s uneasy heart is somewhat relieved.
He came down a little, sorted out his thoughts, and then said: "Lord, I am going to go to Hedong tomorrow to make purchases, but there is one thing... our first batch of loan money has to be repaid..."
Originally, Cui Hou's net worth was only 300 to 400 million. He borrowed about 400 million, and then paid it in installments again, which was equivalent to borrowing 300 to 400 million again. Now, after about ten days, there is still money to borrow.
Some subsequent payments should start to be made one after another.
"Well, how many more do we have on hand now?" Fei Qian asked.
Cui Hou took out a thin piece of silk with writing on it from his sleeve and handed it over.
Fei Qian unfolded it and took a look. He clicked and suddenly felt as if he would go to an ATM to check his account balance at the end of each month in future generations. Even in the dog days of summer, he could feel the rush of pain rushing up his back.
A chill...
This money...
It’s too careless. I didn’t expect that I would become a member of the Moonlight Clan in the Han Dynasty...
The original amount of more than one billion yuan, including loans, was cut off due to the accident in Hedong and Shaanxi, and a lot of goods were directly lost. Therefore, the goal of doubling Feng Feiqian's original idea was not actually achieved.
, just relying on the price difference of grain and grass, there was probably a profit of close to 400 million, but the recruitment and use of troops during this period also amounted to more than 300 million in currency.
In other words, the money earned is basically spent again.
Most of them are grain and grass, which have been eaten, defecated, and then gone.
Although there is still a large amount of leather and other materials on hand, construction has started at the same time in Beiqu, Pingyang, and Taoshan Xuemen...
There is no problem that grain and grass are hard currency, but this hard currency is cyclical. Except for the harvest period, it is constantly attenuating the rest of the time.
The lunar eclipse of Zhengzhi has one stone and eight buckets, Beiqu has one thousand and four, Pingyang has more than five thousand, Yong'an has one thousand, Zhengshi consumes more than thirteen thousand stones in one month;
The auxiliary soldiers have one stone for the moon, Beiqu has one thousand, Pingyang has three thousand soldiers including the field soldiers, Yong'an has eight hundred, and the food needs more than five thousand stones for one month;
There are more than 11,000 people in Yong'an and nearly 20,000 in Pingyang. Although the people normally do not need to provide food and grass, but now these people have no food storage, that is, before the harvest, they still need ration support from Feiqian.
In addition, to build Pingyang and Xuemen, the various handymen also need to be paid with grain and grass, so they need to spend about 8,000 to 10,000 dan every month...
That is equivalent to eating 25,000 to 30,000 shi of food and grass every month, which is equivalent to over 10 million yuan...
This is just eating.
And it doesn’t take into account the subsequent surge in prices and inflation.
Inflation is as fierce as a tiger.
During the period of inflation, not to mention ordinary people in the Han Dynasty, even ordinary people in later generations may not know how to invest to make money. Most of the money they accumulated with their hard work was like groundhogs, digging holes and hiding it.
However, as prices rise, these ordinary people can only watch their savings gradually shrink. Whenever there is inflation, it is an opportunity for the upper class to plunder. In troubled times, people are not as good as peaceful dogs, and human lives are like grass and grass. It has become a commonplace norm
…
Fei Qian took advantage of the maid to serve the strong tea soup, sipping it slowly while half-squinting his eyes, trying to recall some time-travel novels he had read in his mind, hoping to provide some inspiration, and found...
…
Nothing...
They all seem to be simplified modes, such as:
"Well, it looks like we have no shortage of food and grass..."
"Work-for-relief, put it in your left pocket and put it in your right pocket, so we won't be short of money..."
"We can collect 20 million dan this year, and then we will have all the rations for our troops..."
Damn it, 20 million shi is equal to the output of nearly 7 million acres, and the area of 7 million acres, calculated based on the side length of 240 steps in the Han Dynasty, one acre is about 465
Square meters, then seven million acres is nearly 3,000 square kilometers...
The total area of almost two of the later Celestial Capitals...
And not all land can be used to grow crops. Just like the fields Fei Qian has reclaimed in Pingyang, it is only 120,000 to 130,000 acres at most. Of course, there is still some room, but even if it is fully reclaimed,
At most, it's only about 700,000 to 800,000 acres.
So we are short of food and money, what should we do?
Fei Qian himself has nothing now, so he can only carry out the method of using empty gloves to benefit himself at the expense of others. Since he can't find the answer in those future time travel novels, he can only cut a batch of leeks based on what he knows.
Already...
"Yongyuan, just leave those leathers for now. Those that are not further processed are not worth anything... Well, that's what it means. We will take part of the money first and return the first batch, and we will return it with great fanfare..." Fei Qian said.
He put the tea bowl down, then paused and said, "...Then, you can borrow it again after you return it! Then you can borrow it back quietly..."
Cui Hou blinked his little mung bean eyes, returned it with great fanfare, and then borrowed it again?
"My lord, do you mean to bluff?"
"That's right, but not entirely right. If we don't pay it back, people will think that we have no money, so we need to pay it back in a big way to let everyone know that we have money..." Fei Qian gently knocked on the table.
Knock, said, "...but we really don't have money now, so we still need to borrow more..."
Cui Hou nodded and said: "It's not difficult to pay back the money, but you have to borrow..." The money of the nobles did not fall from the sky. Without enough benefits, no one would let go easily. The last time it was with colored glaze
Trade, this excuse will not work this time.
"We don't want to keep five baht in our hands. Now we must turn this money into materials as much as possible... Borrowing also means borrowing food and materials, not coins, and the most important thing is to remember to write down the specific amount to use after writing the agreement.
The amount of coins comes and goes to repay..." Fei Qian is ready to take advantage of this stage before the chaos breaks out to dig deep into the walls of these trench buddies again.
Cui Hou understood a little bit, his little eyes blinked with bright yellow light, and he said tentatively: "My lord, do you think the price of grain and grass will rise further?"
"That's right... this matter must not be leaked to anyone..." Fei Qian didn't want to explain too much, because even the people of the Han Dynasty combined wouldn't know as much about this thing as he does now.
Cui Hou nodded like a chicken pecking at rice and said, "Don't worry, my lord! Don't worry! Then, what...well, what explanation or reason should I use to borrow it?"
Fei Qian nodded, signaled Cui Hou to wait a moment, and then asked his bodyguard to take something out and put it in the hall.
When Cui Hou saw it, he couldn't help but feel a little pale...
In fact, during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, each school looked down upon the other...
Korean Han Feizi: "There was a man from Lu who was good at weaving linen shoes, and his wife was good at weaving white silk..."
Confucius from the State of Lu: "There was a man from the State of Chu named Ye Gong..."
Chu State Lao Tzu: "...I won't quarrel with you. Anyway, in a hundred years we will all be dead, whether we fight or not, we will die, so why should we fight..."
...So the earliest joker was Master Zhongni...
Confucius (the first author), his disciples (the second author) and his secondary disciples (the third author) also co-wrote a famous book of jokes.
They often forward other people's quotes.
Sometimes I just forward it and say, "Master x said:..."
