Chapter 358 Left to buy road money

Only rich people can afford Datang pepper. It may be an exaggeration to say that one tael of pepper is one tael of gold, but half a tael of gold is definitely more than that.

At this time, pepper is all dependent on imports, and the money of the people of Tang Dynasty is actually not as good as that of the Europeans (the aristocrats in Europe are so stupid that they have so much money).

70.00% of the recipes of the rich in Europe require pepper, and the amount required can be imagined.

Therefore, those merchants in the Western Regions are more willing to sell the pepper bought from Southeast Asia to European countries, and very few can enter the Datang market.

Rare things are more expensive, so it is no wonder that pepper is not more expensive in Datang.

Lin Wanwan bought a ton of pepper for [-] yuan in modern times, which was nearly a ton of gold in the Tang Dynasty.

She is thinking that she will not move pepper secretly in the future, so as to make a clear path for her own pepper.

As for revealing money?No worries at all!

Originally, she was known as a local tyrant in the County of Le'an Township. Those poor old nobles despised her poor family but rich and lack of rules (only the number of servants in the family was enough for them to despise), while secretly envious of her. Duntunjin (pepper is about equal to gold).

Lin Wanwan has the dual identities of the township lord and Xiao Chong's cousin. As long as Xiao Chong is in Xun County for a day, basically no one would dare to provoke her without looking.

When Xiao Chong was promoted and left, Lin Wanwan believed that she must have promoted Linjiazhuang and the surrounding villages.

At that time, everyone will be a new force of squires. If the new county magistrate does not have enough background, he may not dare to provoke them.

When picking up the boat, Hua Nong told the other party to use pepper, and Lu Ping naturally agreed.

It's not easy to get pepper these days. Every time merchants from the Western Regions come here, they don't bring much.

Even in the Song Dynasty, Guangzhou only had to pay [-] catties of pepper to the imperial court every year.Later, the emperor felt that the burden was too heavy, so he reduced it to twenty catties.

The prime minister of the Tang Dynasty, Yuan Zai, embezzled 800 shi pepper (equivalent to 64 tons), which directly shattered the emperor's view of wealth. The emperor himself could not get so much pepper!
The emperor was so angry that he dug up the graves of the Yuan family's ancestors and killed all their descendants.

It can be seen that for everyone in Datang, pepper is equivalent to the meaning of today's Ruanmei coin to modern people, and it is impossible for someone not to love it!
Bringing this batch of pepper to the master, Lu Ping will definitely be rewarded, so there is no reason for him to be unhappy.

Lin Wanwan exchanged 35 catties of pepper for a big boat, and she was also in a very good mood.

Both buyers and sellers feel that they have made a profit, and the transaction is a success.

When everything was going well, he encountered obstacles when he asked Lifu to move the goods on board.

A group of bastards blocked the door of the warehouse, extorting [-] bolts of silk and [-] catties of pepper from Lin Wanwan for leaving the warehouse.

The bully headed by him was Fu Ergou from the East Wharf area, and people in the Jianghu called him Erye Fu.

Don't say that Lin Wanwan is a country lord from the fifth rank, they dare not provoke her, there is no such thing.

Lin Wanwan only brought a Kunlun and a Hua Nong with her when she went out, so there was no ostentation.

Although Kunlun had learned a few martial arts moves from the bearded man of Xiao Yixun's family, and his big man could at least intimidate many people, but Hua Nong was totally a match for him.

Among the noble ladies of the Tang Dynasty, there is no one who is less pompous than Lin Wanwan, the Lord of Le'an Township.

Without the support of the servants, who would take you, a country lord without real power, seriously!
An official without strength is just a mascot, not to mention a vain township monarch, and a county magistrate who can't compete with the local gentry can only be a puppet.

What's more, Lin Wanwan, the Lord of Le'an Township, is not from the local area, but just a Bodhisattva passing by.

Although there are unscrupulous people in charge of order on the pier, Hua Nong quietly told Lin Wanwan that a few days ago in the lobby of the inn, she saw with her own eyes the bad people who managed the pier and the bullies in front of them, eating wine like brothers have fun.

This kind of thing is actually quite normal, it has happened since ancient times, Lin Wanwan is not surprised.

In fact, with Lin Wanwan's financial resources, she didn't care about the money extorted by this idea at all.Twenty bolts of silk and twenty catties of pepper are all, she has plenty in the warehouse.

Although there is a slight difference between the one in Tang Dynasty and the one in modern times, it is not very big. Twenty bolts of silk are about the same as twenty bolts of modern satin; , which means that 16 catties of pepper is equivalent to 32 catties of modern pepper.

In Datang, this was a huge amount of money, more than half the value of a new ship, but Lin Wanwan bought it from Hyundai, which was only how much.

But why?
She has already mixed up to the fifth rank, and she can still be manipulated by a pier bully?
The powerhouses are all trying to persuade them, saying that this is the rule of the wharf here, there are no exorbitant taxes from the government, and there are no fees from the barbarians, just paying some fees to local snakes is really nothing.

Spending money to buy safety, the most important thing is to move the goods from the warehouse to the ship smoothly.

What's more, everyone vaguely hinted that this is actually the berthing fee paid to the pier by passing ships.Although it was a bit harsher this time, it was also because Lin Wanwan's wealth was exposed.

Hua Nong intercepted a new ship of the Lu family fleet through Yaren at a price far higher than the market price, which has already spread to both black and white circles in the past two days.

"My lady, go and tell your master, don't fight against Fu Er. If you don't give him this money, it will be very difficult for your cargo to return to Yan County smoothly." A Lifu whispered to Hua Nong Two sentences.

In fact, Hua Nong also had this idea in his heart. The situation is stronger than people, and people who live near the sea are generally not good, because the sea can really bury all evils.

What a noble lady her family is, it's not worth fighting with the bullies on the pier over such a thing, and putting herself in danger.

"My lady, why don't we give it to them first, and then sue them severely with the government when we return to Lin's Village?"

Lin Wanwan shook her head, she was unwilling to give in.

The main thing is that she is good at being bullied, and with her current financial strength, if she is weakened, it is impossible to return to Shan County safely.

Sharks who smelled blood, how could they not gather?

Lin Wanwan whispered a few words to Hua Nong Fuer, and then asked her to take her jade plaque and withdraw quietly.

Hua Nong can only be a burden to Lin Wanwan here, it is better to let her go out to shake people while taking advantage of the chaos.

Lin Wanwan ordered Hua Nong to be good, and then made a hands-on gesture to Kunlun.

Sure enough, Kunlun rushed into the gangsters without saying a word and killed the Quartet.

He was already tall and powerful, but after learning a few martial arts moves from Xiao Yixun's bearded man, his attack power became even more ferocious, far beyond the comparison of the sallow and emaciated wharf bastard.

But there are so many people on the other side, the so-called two fists are hard to beat with four legs, Kunlun rushed into the group of bastards alone, trying to make the bastards retreat, but it was impossible, at most it would create a melee.

Hua Nong took advantage of a group of people fighting fiercely, got on his horse, and rushed out with the horse.
