Chapter 150 The Crushed Salary

Chapter 150 The Crushed Salary
"How about taking care of the family business?" Yang Yansi asked tentatively.

Cao Lin giggled coquettishly, "Does the gentleman want my concubine to help you fight for the property from your mother?"

Yang Yansi was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "Lin'er, you might think about it, your husband and I also have a small treasury."

Cao Lin looked forward to it, "Lang Jun bought a lot of property without telling his mother?"

In Cao Lin's expectant eyes, Yang Yansi patted his chest and said: "Your lord and I are now considered officials of the imperial court. We receive three salaries every month, which adds up to 81 coins, plus public money and tea soup. There are 63 pennies of money, allowances, cooking materials, firewood, humble servants (servants), clothing materials and other subsidies, a total of 140 four pennies. All will be taken care of by you in the future.”

In fact, in many people's understanding, everyone thinks that the salary in the Song Dynasty is very high.In fact, the salary of the Song Dynasty was divided into two extremes, and the salary of officials below the bottom six ranks was not too high.

For a county magistrate of the seventh grade, his monthly salary is only about fifteen or eighteen guan.

Officials with a rank of six or above will see a stepwise increase in salary, ranging from hundreds to thousands of guan according to their rank.With some subsidies and rewards, everyone is rich.

It's a pity that Yang Yansi's fifth-rank official title is a false title.

Otherwise, his salary will increase exponentially on the basis of 140 four consecutive years.

"Puff~" Cao Lin laughed at Yang Yansi's serious expression.

Clutching his stomach, he almost couldn't straighten up laughing.

"Lang...Lang Jun, do you know how much money my father will give me as a dowry for this concubine?" Cao Lin burst into tears and laughed.

Cao Lin's dowry can be regarded as her private money.

Yang Ye and She Saihua were not feudal and unreasonable, so they did not confiscate Cao Lin's private money.

Yang Yansi is a big man, and he is too embarrassed to worry about his wife's private money.

So Yang Yansi didn't know how much dowry Cao Lin had and how much private money she had.

Seeing Yang Yansi shaking his head, Cao Lin smiled and counted with her fingers, "When I was in my mother's house, the money I praised was about 1 taels of gold. When I got married, my father was afraid that my concubine would suffer, so The dowry is very rich. The dowry is 1 taels of gold...about 11 taels of silver...there are not many copper coins, only 20 guan...more than 100 jade ornaments...more than 2000 gold and silver ornaments..."

Cao Lin counted one item, and the corner of Yang Yansi's mouth twitched.

At the end, Cao Lin smiled coquettishly at Yang Yansi: "With your current salary...it will take more than 2000 years to earn it back."

Yang Yansi probably knew that Cao Lin's dowry was rich, but he didn't expect it to be so rich.Cao Bin was so willing to do so, the dowry items totaled 260 million taels.

Yang Yansi's face was very dark, and he muttered unwillingly: "I, your husband, will be promoted in the future, and my salary will also increase. Besides, I still have twenty hectares of land."

Because the emperors of the Song Dynasty were bored when they were free, and when they were full and had nothing to do, they would take all the civil and military officials to go to the fields every year during spring plowing and autumn harvest to experience the hard work of farming and mulberry.Therefore, basically the officials of the Song Dynasty will be given jobs.

Hearing about Zhitian, Cao Lin smiled even more happily, "I don't mention it, I almost forgot about my identity. When I came, my father gave me the title deed of two hundred hectares of fertile land..."

At this moment, Yang Yansi felt that he might be a fake modern person. He had been in the Song Dynasty for almost two years, and his money was not as much as his own wife's dowry.

Of course, the main reason is that Yang Yansi's ambition is not on money.

However, it is not difficult to see from Cao Lin's generous dowry that the nobles of the Song Dynasty were really rich.Everyone is so rich, no wonder Zhao Guangyi and the civil officials are suppressing nobles everywhere.

In terms of private money, he was completely crushed by his own daughter-in-law.

Yang Yansi felt a little offended, and argued: "The birthday cake shop opened by Shi Yuansun and Wang Shilong, I am also a part of your husband."

When mentioning the birthday cake shop, Cao Lin was obviously taken aback, "Mr. How many people are there in the birthday cake shop, and how much money can they get each year?"

When mentioning dividends, Yang Yansi blushed, "Two members, I haven't received profit sharing yet..."

Indeed, the birthday cake shop has been open for a year and a half.Shi Yuansun and Wang Shilong never reported the accounts to Yang Yansi, nor did they say that they would send the dividend money to Yang Yansi.

I was busy taking the imperial examination before, so I didn't pay attention to it, but now that it was mentioned, Yang Yansi remembered it.

Cao Lin frowned slightly when she heard the words, "Mr. Gentleman, favors belong to favors, and business belongs to business. Since you have a share in the birthday cake shop, you should get the corresponding profit share."

Cao Lin pondered for a while, "There is something wrong with the Shi family and the Wang family. Let this matter be handed over to my concubine, who will help you deal with it."

"It's just..." Cao Lin pouted, "Birthday Cake Shop, we are just a few people, and people from the Shi family and the Wang family are worried about it. I went to help you find them to settle the accounts. When I look back, I still have nothing to do. Anything to do?"

Looking at Cao Lin's bitter little face, Yang Yansi looked at his head, "It's autumn now. Last year in autumn and winter, there was no green vegetables to eat, which was hard for me. How about this, build a greenhouse, and in winter Get some greens in...

I had this idea last year, but unfortunately I was busy with scientific research and forgot.Now I live in Zuo Buque, and I have to go to court every day, so I don't have time to do it.I'll leave it to you to get it done.

I still remember that I promised Su Yijian to brew some strong wine... I also leave this matter to you. "

When Cao Lin heard Yang Yansi's two proposals, her expression was very resentful.

Cao Lin didn't understand what a greenhouse was.But she is very good at making wine.

The imperial court strictly controlled alcohol, and private individuals were prohibited from brewing alcohol.

Only workshops with the approval of the imperial court, similar to wine-making licenses, are eligible to make wine.

Moreover, the quantity of wine brewed by each workshop has clear regulations.

The imperial court will distribute a batch of koji every year, and the amount of koji held is the amount of wine that your winery can produce.

If it exceeds the standard, the wine making license will be revoked.

The purpose of this decree issued by the imperial court is to preserve more food so that more people can have food to eat.

After all, brewing requires a lot of grain.

However, this decree has now become a tool for making money.

To be precise, it became the Cao family's money-making tool.

Because, [-]% of the wine koji issued by the imperial court every year entered the pockets of the Cao family.

Cao Lin stared at Yang Yansi and sighed faintly, "Mr. Lang, are you planning to let my concubine dig out her natal family's footsteps and subsidize our family?"

 Thanks to 'Uninstall' Liukuaiyang for the reward!
