I made Daqin a prosperous world

Chapter 18
Li Yu didn't think he was a saint, so rice paper naturally required money, not to mention that Li Yu, who was aware of the crisis, decided to make money, a lot of money.

But when it comes to money, the currency of the Qin Dynasty was unified, but it still made it difficult for Li Yu, a modern person who went out to scan codes, to accept it.

Qin law stipulates that gold is the upper coin, and the unit is "镒" (20 taels or 24 taels); copper is the lower coin, and the unit is "half taels". A Qin coin weighs about [-] grams.

How do you understand this?
That is to say, the money bag when going out is filled with about twenty copper coins, so the weight of the money bag is at least one catty. If consumption increases in the future, wouldn't people have to carry a suitcase to go out?
Watching the selected man operate with ease, pieces of white rice paper are produced, and these rice papers are cut and bound with twine into booklets, and sold for copper coins.

The big wooden boxes behind the account room were carried away one after another...

Li Yu couldn't help but said: "Your Majesty still underestimated the private treasury of the princes and nobles of the empire. A book is sold for [-] yuan. If it wasn't for being rich, no one would buy it."

Ying Zheng's face was ugly, showing signs of anger.

If today's sale attracts scholars and Confucian scholars among the common people, it means that they can afford the price, and it also indirectly means that the common people are beginning to become rich.

But basically all the children of officials and eunuchs come to buy, which explains a lot of problems.

Li Si hesitated to speak from the sidelines...

Li Yu had no choice but to persuade: "But your Majesty, don't worry too much, the deficit of the national treasury cannot be solved in a day or two.

Scholars, farmers, businessmen, and merchants in the empire have almost disappeared due to policies. Now His Majesty is slowly opening up the breeding industry and reducing or exempting corvee taxes.

In less than a year, farmers' income will be greatly increased, and now this strategy can only be seen to have some disadvantages. "

Li Si breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and echoed: "Your Majesty is right. Your Majesty, now that the people's livelihood is at an early stage, it is better not to be impatient. The princes and nobles seem to have a strong desire to buy, and I am afraid that there is also the meaning of pleasing the princes and princes." , let alone generalizations.”

Yingzheng glanced at Li Si, but he was disgusted in his heart: Li Si has more than a dozen concubines, and you used a motorcade just to move, do you really think I am blind?

It's just that the world is initially settled, there are many internal and external troubles, and there is no way to do it.

Ying Zheng dismissed many thoughts in his mind, and suddenly said: "Junhou's paper mill will be supplied to the common people in the future, and the price will be calculated at par."

parity……

Li Yu was stunned for a moment, but Ying Zheng said angrily again: "As long as the servants can earn a lot of money, the paper mill of the Governor's Mansion will count you half of the bonus in the future."

Half a percent doesn't seem like much, but it's actually a lot of oil and water, and it's really lying down to make money...

Li Yu understood what Ying Zheng meant, and immediately said with a smile: "Your Majesty is wise, thank you Your Majesty."

The big and small dragon fart was slapped at the right time, and Ying Zheng's face became expressionless again.

On the contrary, Li Si's eyes were red and his breathing became a little short of breath.

Grandma has a leg, this half of the income is from princes and nobles from all over the country...

Li Si could only complain to himself that Li Yu was lucky to comfort his young heart.

Li Yugang sent Ying Zheng and Li Si away from the back door, and returned to the back hall full of joy.

He didn't even sit on his buttocks, and suddenly Cai Lun's eager cry came from outside the house: "Master Hou, the door is blocked."

Li Yu was surprised, the first emperor had just left, and someone came to block the door?

Or was it a coincidence?
Thinking that Zhao Yun was guarding outside, what could be the matter, Li Yu hummed a little song comfortably and walked towards the front hall. It took more than a minute to walk for half a minute.

Cai Lun followed and looked at Li Yu with strange eyes.

Junhou, what happened today?
As soon as I saw it, I saw seven or eight men lying at the door, which was similar to what Cai Lun said about blocking the door.

One of them covered his bleeding mouth and muttered: "My master said that if you want to open for business in Xianyang City, you have to..."

The meaning of the hand gesture is self-evident, and I immediately understand that this is a protection fee?
On the contrary, Li Yu was happy, and said with a smile: "Then you know who I am."

The man with a bloody mouth shouted: "I don't care who you are, if you want your business to be easier in the future, give me the money quickly."

Li Yu was angry and funny, could you still lie at the door and extort money?
Looking at his outfit, and then at the facade, it's no wonder that this group of people seem to have no eyes.

Li Yu didn't have court clothes, and he didn't have official authorization, and the facades were all casually bought ordinary stores, so he really didn't need to know who he was.

Li Yu secretly laughed at himself for taking it for granted, and said with a smile: "Tell me who your master is, and I will pay the money honestly, how about it?"

The man must have been stunned by the beating, he hesitated and said: "My master is..."

Before the words finished, the man beside him quickly covered the bleeding man's mouth and shouted, "You idiot, you fucking don't want to live anymore."

Only then did the man who was called a fool come to his senses, and then he thought of the cold appearance of the man who paid the money, couldn't help but get up from the ground, patted his chest and let out a long sigh of relief.

"Tell me, who ordered you to make trouble," Zhao Yun waved his hand abruptly.

A long gun was suddenly placed on his neck, and the second fool was so frightened that his legs trembled, and he said in many words: "Hugh, don't think about it, our brothers come out, come out to hang out, what we are talking about is a reputation."

Li Yu laughed straight after seeing it, and said: "I think this group of people are also thugs of the second way. How can they know who the real master is, let Zilong forget it."

Only then did Zhao Yun put away his long spear, stood aside and stared at the seven or eight people in front of him, and shouted: "Why don't you get out of here, don't stand in the way of Lord Hou's business."

One of the thin men heard that the gun-wielding boy actually called the man next to him Lord Hou, his pupils shrank, and he was so scared that he called out to his brother, and ran away from the door.

He ran straight to a corner, gasped heavily, and slapped the head of the man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheek angrily, and said, "Er Gouzi, your grandma has such legs, you dare to take on such a terrible job!" , almost killed me."

Er Gouzi was slapped by the boss for no reason, touched his head and asked, "Boss, why did you hit me? This job is pretty good. Although it didn't work out, I got a deposit of [-] yuan anyway."

The man called the boss said angrily: "You know a hammer. The person who gave us money to do things doesn't look like a good bird. Do you know what the white-faced boy called the owner of the paper just now?"

"What the hell?"

The boss furiously slapped his head again, and shouted: "Mother, that's a marquis, master Hou understands, really mother almost let your kid kill you."

Er Gouzi got dizzy from being slapped, "What is Monkey King?"

The boss slapped his forehead and said: "You are so stupid, really, just remember that the paper seller is not the one we can afford to mess with. Also, I will return the fifty money to me, and I can't ask for it." .”

Popi's head can be regarded as moral, and he knows to refund the deposit if he fails to get things done, but more importantly, he knows that some people's money is hot, so it's better not to.
