Eight Hills in the Eastern Jin Dynasty
Vol 2 Chapter 604: Poverty limits imagination
Liu Yu smiled and waved his hand: "Okay, okay, I don't have this thought, nor the money. You know, half of my military pay is sent to the family, and the other half is sent to aquatic. From small to large I have always been self-reliant, relying on my own hands and using slaves, but this is something that big families can only afford. "
Liu Muzhi shook his head: "This time is different. Fei Shui wins. There will be a lot of rewards next. When you parade and capture prisoners today, you will be the first. Not only will the credit be rated as the first, but the reward will also be There will be many. Not to mention buying two slaves, even if you buy dozens of acres of land, it is more than enough. "
Liu Yu frowned: "Is there so much? In Jingkou, it takes about 1,000 yuan to buy one acre of land. You said that a few dozen acres of land can get tens of thousands of dollars. I didn't win that much last time when I gambled. what."
Liu Muzhi smiled and patted Liu Yu's shoulder: "Junu, so, poverty limits your imagination. At Jingkou, tens of thousands of money is a large sum of money, enough to be rich, but at Jiankang. A place like the city is nothing at all. Maybe a house can't afford it. There is also the sale of slaves. Our folks are simple in style and basically self-sufficient. We rarely know the price. But in the construction of Kangcheng This kind of place is an ordinary thing. "
Liu Yu nodded: "This is the right place. There are many nobles and officials in Jiankang. There is a need for someone to serve. There must be a place where you can buy and sell servants. If you say this, I am a bit interested. Have you seen these places where servants bought and sold, do you know this? "
Liu Muzhi smiled slightly: "I also visited Jiankang twice for my father-in-law's family, and found some servants. At that time, a male servant with good hands and feet and a healthy body needed seven or eight thousand dollars, while the maid was relatively cheaper. Girls who are two or three years old can buy it back for about five thousand dollars. "
Liu Yu frowned: "It's so expensive, you can buy a servant's money, you can buy nearly seven or eight acres of land, it's better to cultivate the land by yourself. No wonder we have no one in Jingkou, you still get This builds Kangcheng to find these slaves. "
Liu Muzhi said in a positive way: "Yes, Jingkou was originally a place for the placement of exiles in the north. It is very special. In other places, there are generally some markets for these slave trades. The government comes out to formulate a contract for the buyer and seller. This guarantee is the same as the paper contract we used for the field transaction. It is also for every 1,000 yuan, and it is necessary to collect 400 yuan to enter the government. As the price of this contract, this money is called tax assessment. "
Liu Yu smiled and said, "I know this is the case when we buy and sell land in Jingkou. For 1,000 yuan, we have to pay forty yuan to the government for tax assessment. The seller pays thirty and the buyer also pays ten. With this The contract document officially recognizes that this field belongs to your home. Doesn't our land all have this contract document? "
Liu Muzhi nodded: "The same is true of slaves. Most of them are bankrupt peasants. They are unable to repay their debts or pay taxes. They can only sell themselves as slaves, or they are family members of criminals. The money will only be handed over to the main family to regain freedom. Originally, the number of servants in Dajin was not too large. After all, the rule was fairly peaceful, but this time there were more than a hundred thousand Qin army captives, which is equal to more than a dozen Thousands of servants, such a large influx into the market, will greatly reduce the price of servants, especially the more expensive male servants, I think, these days, the servant market will be very lively. "
Liu Yu hooked his mouth and said: "However, we have the money to buy more fields. Why don't we have to buy slaves? My two younger brothers will soon grow up. They have enough land to grow. What do slaves need to do?"
Liu Muzhi said with a smile: "Slave, you have made a great contribution on the battlefield, and the next promotion to the lord is justified. Don't consider the future of the Jingkou farmer to think about the future. You will only be afraid in the future. There are very few chances to go home to farm land and farm again, and your two younger brothers should be almost fifteen and one almost fourteen. Cheng Ding is also a matter of these two years. After Cheng Ding, you want to let Are they farming at home, or do they want to follow you on the battlefield and make contributions? "
Liu Yu's heart moved, thought for a while, and still said: "It is impossible to go to the battlefield with me. There is a mother at home. How can I leave her alone?"
Liu Muzhi said with a smile: "Jinu, Jinu, you didn't think about these things. You didn't think about it. It seems that you are really using your mind on the battlefield. Now your family is in Jingkou, there is Xie's family Care, but the Xie family ca n’t help you take care of your family all your life. You have to rely on yourself in the future. If you marry Wang, you have the opportunity to enter the Xie family directly and take your family to Jiankang. Would you like this? "
Liu Yu shook his head firmly: "No, this is never considered. Although Xie's family is kind to me, but in this way, it is no different from going to the door. I then made it clear to Xuanshuai that the man's big husband wanted I beat the world with my own hands, and traveled in the world with my ancestor's surname ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ Entering the Gaomen clan as a son-in-law, or a trilogy. Rural farming will never leave people behind. "
Liu Muzhi nodded: "I am ambitious, but you have to know that after all, Miss Wang is a high-ranking noble girl, Miss Qianjin, if you come to Jingkou, it will be the case before your house, you really want to let Miss Wang Are you going to do farm work? "
Liu Yu did not speak. This question has been turned around many times in his mind. He has never even known whether Wang Miaoyin is willing to live such a life with himself. He raised his head and looked at Liu Muzhi's eyes for a long time. Only then slowly said: "Fat man, Mrs. Zun is also the lady of the Jiang family. Have you been living with ordinary people with you all these years? Isn't she not doing farm work?"
Liu Muzhi shook his head: "She spun the cloth and did some sewing work for the women, but she really did things. Sending slaves, you know, the women of these scholars, no matter how generous, are after all Jiao Didi's young lady, she can do it by herself, but like our ordinary peasant women in Jingkou, they really work in the field, even if they are willing, their family will never agree, which will humiliate their family's face. So, this The problem, you have to deal with it. The girl Wang should do anything for you, but if you let her go to the farm to do farm work, not only will Liu Jinu lose face, even the Wang family and the Xie family will also become families. The laughing stock, your marriage, I am afraid that it will not last long. "
