Chapter 713 Shenyang City: Soaring Prices!

Facing the huge waves on the Aomei, Li Huamei, who was always talking and laughing without changing her expression, turned pale with vomiting and tears in her eyes.

"Father, I can't take it anymore. It's all done by this damned thing!" She angrily pointed at Shi Lang who was smiling apologetically but couldn't hide her joy, and could not stop complaining.

"Big sister, it's like this when you have a child. You'll vomit at first, but it'll be fine in a few days." Sitting next to Li Huamei, Li Huaying, who kept mosuo on her back, spoke in the tone of someone who had come here Consolation for the eldest sister.

"Father, last time you said that Huang Taiji died. You haven't told me how he died!" Li Huamei also tried to divert her attention from the strong pregnancy reaction at the beginning of pregnancy above.

Li Shouhan nodded, anyway, there is no business to deal with right now.Members of the two missions, Koprilu and Winstanley, were led by officials from the Rites Department, the Military Department, and the Staff Department to travel around Nanzhong.Visit the army and training in Nanzhong, various farms, villages and towns.There are also piles of grain, whole warehouses and warehouses of cloth, weapons and so on.

"That's good. I've had half a day's free time today. However, although your elder brother has a letter from Shandong, he is still separated by the sea. I don't think you know it as well as your second uncle. It's up to you." Let your second uncle tell the story!"

Li Peiting, who had just returned from Liaodong, blushed, but showed a slight cinnabar color.

"Alright! Then I will tell the lord, the admiral Junmen, and the eldest lady what I have seen and heard in Liaodong, so as to relieve the eldest lady of her troubles!"

After Li Huayu agreed to start peace talks with the Liao thieves, and within a few days when the peace talks arrived in Shenyang, all the people in Shenyang, from Shengdou Xiaomin, to officials at all levels, to the banner owner, Lord Baylor, all clearly felt that the prices seemed to be high. There are two invisible hands and two invisible forces fighting repeatedly. Although the bloody wind cannot be seen, people can feel it.

"Master, didn't we make an agreement. Bear with it for a few days, why can't you hold your breath after only one day?" Tuha's servant pulled Tuha's sleeve and said. "You let go, it's okay to not eat for a day. It's too uncomfortable not to drink for a day!?"

"Master, it's not a slave who won't let you drink, but now the price of goods in our Qing Dynasty is more lively than that of the crop land where the locust plague has occurred. Haven't you heard that before walking down the street, the price doubled at most. But there is still a pattern anyway. It can be followed, the price is rising around. Now it is good, the price will change three times at a step, the price will increase when the foot is raised, and the price will be reduced when the foot is down. Master, the mission will come in two days or so, when it will rise or not There is a certainty in falling, why do you waste that unjust money?"

"I don't care if he raises the price or lowers the price. Let's have a drink first and then talk. That's fine, I also know that you mean well. In this way, you can buy me a little less, and the wine will be a couple of taels. It's good for now, because the increase It’s uncertain, and I can buy a few taels. I’ll wait a little longer and drink a tael a day, and the mission will arrive soon. Well, don’t be dazed, go and buy me wine.” Tuha, Tuha His slaves also took orders to go.

However, as he was walking, the slave lamented in his heart: "Masters of the mission. Come quickly, when you go to the street, people say that you want to negotiate a peace, but when you don't reach the end of the street, they say that you want to turn your face. Which one is the real one?" Yes?! Of course, it’s a trivial matter whether you are negotiating a peace or falling out, but when you hear that you are going to fall out, the price will triple. This is a big deal. My master is good at drinking. It is estimated that the master will have to kill me to make wine.!"

After much deliberation, whether to buy wine or to buy wine, the slave shook his head and began to look for the little scalper.

In fact, the whole of Shenyang is now in panic, not to mention the ordinary people in the market, the dignitaries and those big and small scalpers are not scared?Fluctuating news, turbulent hearts, rumors and gossips from caring people, and passive panic without people have plunged the whole city into a hell without fire.Everyone is extremely tormented in their hearts, but every time there is good news about a peace negotiation, it is the torment of the scalpers, and every time there is bad news, it is the torment of the people and Tuha.

Isn't Huang Taiji's heart extremely tormented?Although it is said that the eldest son Li Huayu has sent the official documents, the Long March can be regarded as breaking through the Jinsha River, but everyone knows how many people are not reconciled and how many people are plotting conspiracy, although Huang Taiji did not install it in Prince Rui's mansion Bugs, monitors, but it seems that the Dorgon brothers can clearly be seen whispering in the secret room, dispatching troops.

"No, I have to do something." Thinking of this, Huang Taiji called his confidant guard, maybe because he was anxious for a moment, he issued a command to tell Sony to roll over to see him immediately.As a result, the guard told the truth when delivering the decree, it doesn't matter now, Sony didn't even have time to change his clothes, and ran into the palace in casual clothes and barefoot on a horse.

And when entering the gate of Huang Taiji's dormitory, he deliberately pretended not to see the way clearly, and just rolled in.Seeing Sonny Huang Taiji in such a mess, Huang Taiji couldn't help being stunned for a moment. After asking the reason, Huang Taiji nodded in satisfaction and said, "You slave, you are obedient. Okay, I can't let you freeze. Come here, take my clothes Bring it and give it to Lord Soniso!"

The emperor was so honored and favored, so Sony was naturally very moved, and he put on Huang Taiji's clothes, and Sony was very grateful to him.After the conversation at the scene, Huang Taiji was not too polite, and said straight to the point: "You servant heard that you have made a fortune recently. The gold and silver in your house are like mountains, and the rice grain is like a sea. What's more interesting is that although the rice, grain, and money are all owned by the owner If there is no one to pick it up, I am not as good as you. If I have no food in the future, I will go to your house to eat."

This remark frightened Sonny and quickly kowtowed to apologize. Huang Taiji helped Sonny up with a smile and said: "What are you doing, I am just joking, you and I have no distinction between you and me. You acted according to my will, The money and food are in your house, just like in my treasury. How can I blame you. But you should know that no one will come to pick up the gold, silver, rice and grain. That's because they are all looking forward to the rise. You can only pay off your debts to the king of hell and buy treetops. But if that happens, the gold, silver and rice grains will be gone. You are my good slave, and you must not bear to see my money lost."

With snot and tears running all over his face, Sony said: "The emperor is kind, even if the slave dies, it is hard to pay for it, even if the slave dies, he will not let the emperor's money and grain be lost." Huang Taiji heard this. Sighing: "Oh, of course you can trust me, but whether the money and food can be kept is not up to you and my monarch and ministers."

Sony quickly asked what was the matter, and Huang Taiji smiled and said: "You slave is extremely smart on weekdays. Why bother to play riddles with me, the key to success or failure lies in whether the mission can reach Shengjing smoothly. Return to the Wanli year. If you lose, you may be able to sit on the ground and increase ten times."

Speaking of this, if Sony doesn't know what to do, then it's not as good as a pig, and it doesn't deserve to be the veteran of the three dynasties in history.So he said: "Your Majesty has orders. The slaves must do their best to accomplish it." Huang Taiji waved his hands and said, "Which one wants you to do your best? I only have one small matter. Recently, there is not enough food in the palace. Chao Ha Bing and those guards have not had a good meal for a long time, so let them stay at your house for a few days, you have to treat them well. In addition, Qiushou is coming soon, you prepare with them , I heard that there are more rare birds and animals in southern Liaoning recently than before, you are my good servant, how can you not hunt some of them back for me."

What kind of brain is that Sony.Immediately understood Huang Taiji's secret point, so he immediately took the order and went back to prepare.After sending Sony away, Huang Taiji felt much more at ease in his heart, but when he turned his head, he felt that he had forgotten something, so he called his bodyguard again and said, "Go, find Prince Su."

However, the guards left and returned, bringing back a piece of news that made Huang Taiji furious.

"Prince Su's master and Prince Yu took the slaves from the mansion to hunt around Jinzhou!"

The bastard son!This is clearly the Dorgon brothers who dug a hole for him.Taking advantage of the hunt, he secretly murdered the Southern Guangdong military peace mission, and then threw the blame on Hauge!Huang Taiji cursed in his heart, only felt his temples on both sides twitch.Unable to stop the pain, dizziness before the eyes.

However, according to what he knew about his son, he was afraid that this brave and foolish fool would not wait for others to do it, but only needed a few words of encouragement from others.He would rush to attack the envoys of the Southern Guangdong Army, typically being sold by others and carrying the money home for them!

"Quick! Pass the order to Sony to take people to Jinzhou to meet the mission! If anyone dares to make mistakes on the road, they will be killed!"

Sure enough, it is better to know the son than the father.Not long after Sony took a thousand Kabush Xianchao soldiers and dozens of bodyguards to meet his eldest son in Jinzhou, he ran head-on into the two Manchurian banner lords, Xiangbaiqi and Zhenglanqi. in the hunting grounds.

"Bless the ancestors of the Qing Dynasty! Bless Kulun, the Longevity Buddha!" ​​Sony secretly called out a fluke in his heart. Fortunately, he was received by himself before the mission met these two second-rate princes. Otherwise, I really don't know Hauge. What kind of basket will be poked out!

Seeing the virtuous Kabush soldiers and bodyguards, as well as the leadership of Soni, Hauge knew that he wanted to attack the Nanmanzi mission, and put an end to the treacherous ministers' plan to trick his father into humiliating and surrendering to the Nanmanzi. It's gone.

Even though he was very courageous, he didn't dare to attack the Kabush soldiers and guards.It's one thing to be able to fight well, as long as you make a move, you will undoubtedly challenge Huang Taiji's authority!I'm afraid that at that time, even if Huang Taiji wanted to protect him, he would not be able to open his mouth.

Among the two white flags, two red flags, and the rest of the flags, those who were offended by him and bullied by him will attack them together, forcing Huang Taiji to punish him according to the law!

However, since Hauge was able to become Prince Su of the Zhenglan Banner Manchuria Banner, he still had some brains and the ability to adapt to changes.When he saw the smiling Sony saluting before his horse, telling him and Duoduo how to welcome the mission according to the emperor's will, and at the same time ordering the garrison of the states and counties along the way to strictly protect the reception, immediately Change the course.

"Since the father sent you here, then I will stop hunting. Take the servants of my banner and escort all the distinguished guests of the peace mission back to Shengjing to meet the father!" He consciously said Talking about making a peace call instead of asking for a peace, in this way, he can feel a little more comfortable psychologically.

"Uncle Fifteen, look, the hunt has to be rescheduled."

"It's okay! Send the mission to Shengjing, and it's okay for us to go hunting again!" Duoduo also took a sharp turn, and changed the regulations accordingly.

The two executioners who planned to intercept the mission on the way immediately became the flower protectors.Along the way, they escorted the mission sent by Mr. Li of the Southern Guangdong Army into Shenyang City with respect and respect.

In the city of Shenyang, rumors have already been flying all over the sky.

"Do you know, Prince Su killed all the missions sent by the young commander of the Nanyue Army! The corpses were thrown into the forest and fed to the wild wolves!"

"Nonsense! It was obviously thrown into the Hun River, and the corpse floated along the river for dozens of miles, turning the river red!"

All statements are sworn, and each has its own witness testimony.

You said that your brother is a servant of No. 30 Qiniuluzhangjing under the banner of Prince Su, and I said that my brother-in-law has a good friendship with the fisherman on the Hun River.All witnessed.

Rumor!Naturally, the quantity does not increase, and the spread is getting more and more outrageous.As rumors spread rapidly throughout Shenyang City, prices in the city collapsed completely and skyrocketed.

"You damn slave! A few days ago I asked you to buy wine. You are reluctant to call me more. What are you talking about? After the mission enters Shengjing, the price of wine will drop. But look!" Ha waved the whip in his hand and beat the wrapped clothes at home.

Today's wine prices are calculated on the basis of dime per dollar.That is.Every shot of wine is the price of a mention of wine!

Wine, as a non-necessity of life, the price is so crazy, the prices of rice, flour, grain, oil, cloth, salt, tea, etc. are naturally even better, and they are soaring wildly like a wild horse.When the rumors spread in Shenyang City, those poor ordinary bannermen and Yuding found out sadly that they might not be able to buy the same weight of rice when they went out with a sling of money!This kind of scene only appeared on the streets of Shanghai in 1948.

As the price of copper coins plummeted.The scalpers in the streets and alleys have discovered a new way to make money, which is to exchange copper coins and silver dollars!Because all the shops were preparing to evacuate, copper coins were too bulky to carry, so they began to refuse to use all kinds of Tongbao and only accepted silver dollars.These guys with a keen sense of smell set up booths for exchanging copper coins and silver dollars at the door of each shop, and started the business.

A piece of rag whose color cannot be seen clearly, with a few hanging coins randomly placed on it.Behind the cloth, a scalper stood there with three bends, fiddled with a few silver dollars in his hand, and saw someone coming.They shouted to solicit business.

"Exchange for silver dollars! Nanman's silver dollars can be exchanged for four coins! Only Nanman's Tongbao will be accepted!"

A passer-by questioned the price: "Several Nanman shops have posted a sign saying that one silver dollar can be exchanged for two Tongbao. How do you exchange it for four? Do you have a conscience?"

"Old lady, when is your almanac? The market has passed long ago! My price is still righteous! You go to Zhongjie to have a look, but there is five slings for one silver dollar!"

The old woman who asked the question had no time to scold Yu Ding, who was obviously a Yu Ding who would never go to the battlefield.In the distance, another scalper came flying like flying.

"Little Wu! Little Wu! Hurry up! Big brother said, the price will increase! One silver dollar for five hanging five!"

"What?"

"No reason! There are rumors on the street that Prince Su's subordinates did the killing of Mr. Li's mission. Now Prince Su's troops and horses have been mobilized, and they are preparing to go to Jinzhou and Gaizhou to guard against Li. The eldest son's soldiers are here to avenge! The price has to go up!"

Before the words were finished, the old woman's face turned pale immediately, and she gave the silver dollar dealer the cloth bag in her hand, and snatched a few silver dollars from him. "Fifteen hanging coins! Three yuan for you! Let my old lady suffer a little bit!"

The prices in Shengjing City more than doubled in one day!Those big and small scalpers who had been refusing to go to Sony's house for various reasons to complete the delivery of the new contract to buy the treetops were crowded in the living room of his house, clamoring for Sony to hand over the goods to them, and they had to do it Both money and goods are settled.

A large number of grains, rice, oil, salt, cloth and tea were transported out of the warehouse controlled by the Sony family by the scalpers, and quickly distributed to their little brothers according to their respective sales systems, providing ammunition for continuing to raise prices.

In Huang Taiji's bedroom and in Dorgon's study, the two people who had worked hard for some time on Liaodong's prices were constantly listening to the reports from their subordinates.How far the prices have been raised, and what position the mission has reached, people kept telling them at high speed.

"Master, the price of goods in Shengjing City has exceeded our expectations, should we let our servants throw out all the goods in hand?" In Dorgon's study, a pair of eyes were almost bloodshot. The flushed Cao Zhenyan and Cao Jueluo were a little worried.

"Estimate how long it will take for the news of the mission to enter Shengjing to reach the city?"

"Tomorrow morning at least! Right now the city gates are closed, and everything in the city is full of rumors. There are already rumors that Nanman's vengeful men have already boarded the ship and set out to sea!"

"Okay! Tell us the slaves directly under the three palaces to throw out all the goods and contracts in hand! Let other people from the Five Banners pick them up! Anyone who dares to covet property, kill!"

Dorgon's tone was like the cold wind blowing from the bitterly cold Sauron Mountain Forest in the extreme north, which made people shudder. (~^~)
