Prince of Song Dynasty

Chapter 712 Conflict
He came late, and the empty space outside the Beili Institute was already overcrowded. The current Lizheng was also an elder from the Shanshen Village who could speak Chinese, and was explaining.

"Loan bills are registered and account-registered, and there are three copies. When borrowing grain, you have to get one. Your name and place of origin will be recorded. Take the bill for you to go to Changping warehouse or grain store to pick up grain. Changping warehouse is Don’t worry about the government. The grain store is owned by merchants. If they don’t give, or give less, or give bad grain, don’t take it, come here and sue us.”

"The grain you borrowed with the loan ticket was borrowed from the government. After the spring and autumn ripe, you didn't go to the place where you borrowed the grain. You paid back the grain and two cents of the grain interest, and the ticket was canceled, and the government will come to you."

"This loan ticket is not money, and you can't buy other things. Someone wants to change it privately. You must not change it. If you take the ticket, but the ticket has not been returned to the government from the Changping warehouse and the grain shop, you will have to buy it again next year." There is no food to borrow.”

The elder's explanation caused everyone to chatter and discuss, Fang Dangyong asked others, and found out that from next month, the relief will be reduced by half, and there will be no relief in autumn, and he has to rely entirely on himself.That's why everyone is very concerned about this loan ticket. With the loan ticket, you can borrow food.

Before Fang Dangyong could complain, someone asked angrily why there was no relief, and the elder's sneering words extinguished his anger: "Could it be that the government will continue to support you for nothing? This relief was obtained from the magistrate Dai of Lingzhou. I came here. The magistrate Dai of Lingzhou wanted to give relief until the end of the year, but adults had two buckets a month, and children had one bucket a month. Do you want to drink porridge until you die? The young master begged for grain seeds and land for everyone. Tools, while raising the relief to three dou a month, and one and a half dou for children, are you still not satisfied?"

The women also turned pale and told the complainers to stop talking. The relief was already a gift from His Majesty and the court, and it was the result of the young master's hard work. The thousands of them were not saved by the young master, so they didn't know it was What a fate.

Fang Dangyong's anger was also dispelled by the miserable experience of the Gedo tribe who offended the Emperor Xiangfu at the same time. Ding Zhuang was killed, and all women, children and children were dispatched to Hengshan and outside, and they went to repair canals under the whip. Come on, these people in Shanshen Town are really immersed in a honeypot.

The next question focused on the loan note. Some people asked that the loan note charged two cents of interest on grain, and whether it was okay to not borrow it. The elder said of course it was possible, and it was not compulsory.

Others asked why they didn't just borrow grain or money directly instead of using loan notes.The elder replied that the loans were not only made in Shanshen Town, but also in Lingzhou City and even Xiazhou.It is impossible for everyone to come to Shanshen Town to collect and repay the food. After taking the loan ticket everywhere, they can collect and repay the food at the grain shops in Lingzhou City, Yanzhou and other places.

Thinking about his wife counting with her fingers for several days, there will still be a lot of food shortages in the next few months. Fang Dangyong also began to seriously think about whether he should borrow food, if he really wants to borrow it, how much he needs, and whether he can pay it back after Xia Qiu is ripe. rise.

"If it is a loan, let's not talk about the difference in grain prices, but what the households borrow money for. There is always some truth in saying that the households have money in their hands, and there are always people who are not on the right track. Loan bills are to ensure that the households The income from the household can be devoted to farming and not involved in other ways.”

On the street in Zhaizhong, Kou Zhun was explaining to a young girl. He had said these words to Dai Liwen and the others earlier, but he still had to explain in detail to the girl in front of him, because this girl was the daughter of the head of the Shanshen Village. , is very influential among the thousands of Qiang people in Shanshen Town.The girl's name was Fei Tingyan, and she was also the girl herding cows that Shui'er met outside the town when she brought Dai Liwen and others from Lingzhou.

Fei Tingyan's eyes were dizzy, but he still didn't understand. He lowered his head, scratched the ground with his newly bought embroidered shoes, and said softly, "We Qiang people are not your Han people. We want to do bad things when we have money... "

Kou Zhun said: "Don't worry! This method of borrowing money is still my teacher. The method that our Emperor of Xiangfu Kingdom came up with is to provide relief and comfort, not to collect money. In short, you have to trust me, this is a good thing, yes You will do absolutely no harm."

The loan law that Ye Chen planned for Kou Zhun is actually a copy of the relief coupons of later generations, but it is aimed at property-owning households, not a simple relief, but an interest-bearing loan.This is an attempt by Ye Chen and Kou Zhun. Ye Chen wants to see if the officials and businessmen can effectively control this matter after they separate their responsibilities, and what ills will be exposed. This can be dealt with in the next step for him Hundreds of thousands of foreign tribes and cottages in Xiangfu Kingdom have accumulated valuable experience and provided feasible reference.

Fei Tingyan expressed her sense of powerlessness with twists and turns: "Anyway, the young master has already told me that I am dizzy, so it's a good thing."

Kou Zhun was very busy, so he deliberately took time out to relax with Fei Tingyan, to resolve her bad feeling towards the Lending Law, so naturally he didn't hear the real struggle in the girl's words.At this time, apart from being powerless against the political ignorance attributes of most women like Fei Tingyan, he was also annoyed that Shui'er had been making trouble for him in the past two months.Where did Fei Tingyan know the loan method? That girl Shui'er must have picked up on what he said and told Fei Tingyan on purpose.

"It's better to find a way to drive these two girls away..."

Kou Zhun was thinking this way, and almost collided with the hurrying person on the opposite side.

Both sides took a step back, Kou Zhun frowned, but the [-] or [-]-year-old boy on the opposite side opened his mouth and cursed, "Who doesn't have eyes! How dare you bump into me."

Kou Zhun narrowed his eyes slightly, but before he could speak, Fei Tingyan who was beside him was extremely angry, and said sharply: "Bold, how dare you scold the young master."

Fei Tingyan's opening immediately attracted the young man. The latter saw Fei Tingyan's delicate face and graceful figure, his eyes lit up immediately, he waved the folding fan in his hand, and said with a lewd smile: "I didn't expect that, I didn't Thinking of such a remote place with such a handsome woman, I did not come here in vain today. Hahahaha... Be good little girl, come to my brother, and my brother will take you to enjoy yourself."

When did Fei Tingyan face such a battle, pointing at the boy, he was so angry that he couldn't speak for a long time.

Kou Zhun snorted coldly, and shouted: "Where did the idiot come from, dare to come to our Shanshen Town to play wild."

The young man looked at Kou Zhun coldly, and said, "You dare to call me an idiot, and knock his teeth out for me."

As soon as the young man's words fell, the middle-aged servant became violent and waved to the two guards behind him: "According to the son's wishes, smash his teeth to pieces, just don't cause trouble!"

The boy said sharply again: "Knock out his teeth and make him speechless!"

The two guards rushed up, and Kou Zhun was extremely angry at this time, thinking that these people are really idiots!

The two guards of the young man had already rushed to Kou Zhun's body, without waiting for Kou Zhun's reaction.The petite figure flashed out, stabbing a person in the chest with a straight knife not drawn out of its sheath.The embroidered shoe kicked the other person's calf fiercely, and the two of them backed away screaming. A girl was already protecting Kou Zhun, and it was Fei Tingyan.

Fei Tingyan's face was flushed, her mouth was pouted, and she was angry.

Just as the anger was raging, the two guards rushed forward with ferocious faces, and the two guards behind them sneered even more, and surrounded them too. Fei Tingyan grabbed the handle of the knife and was about to draw it.

A hand pressed her hand, her ears were hot and itchy, and although the voice was low, it sank to the bottom of her heart and scratched: "It's fine that girl Shui'er beats her to death all day long, you can move as you like." Dao, this is not what a lady does."

Fei Tingyan was confused for a moment, and was stunned on the spot. Kou Zhun had already waved and said, "Take it!"

Many Qiang people around have stopped. Although they don't understand Chinese, the meaning of this movement is very clear.The old and the young swarmed up, and they were about to take down the six of them.

However, before them, two Huaxia guards came out from nowhere, rushed in front of everyone, knocked down all six people, including the young man, to the ground with two or three blows, each holding their legs and feet and screaming miserably.

The ten Huaxia Guards responsible for protecting Kou Zhun have now been established in the Xiangfu State's Ministry of National Security, under Hu Sanguang's command, and the Huaxia Guards have been renamed Special Guards, but their clothes have not changed much.Kou Zhun usually asked them to follow him from a distance in order to get closer to the Qiang people in the town. As a result, someone almost hurt Kou Zhun just now, which instantly ignited the anger and murderous intent in the hearts of the ten special guards from the security department. , if Kou Zhun hadn't said to take them down, they would have killed the six people directly.Therefore, the two Huaxia Wei's shots were extremely ruthless, and the six of them suffered from fractures in the slightest and broken bones in severe cases.In this day and age, these injuries are likely to be disabled.

The young man was frightened, and screamed, and shouted hastily: "Don't mess around! Do you know who I am? The right minister of Xiangfu Kingdom is my uncle. If you dare to hurt me, my uncle will definitely kill me!" kill you!"

While shouting, the young man thought to himself that you were all dead, I must let my uncle kill you all and avenge me.

Kou Zhun frowned slightly, and said, "Mr. Ma is your uncle. You went to Xiazhou to take part in the first spring exam of our Xiangfu Kingdom, right? It's a pity that the teachers are thirsty for talents. Due to the lack of talents, the official establishment is very low. Not enough, as long as you have read the book, can do things, and those who work hard will have a great opportunity this time, and it is easy to get an official. But now you have violated the laws of my country, not only will you not be eligible to take the exam, but you will also have to imprison."

The young man was shocked when he heard the words, and vaguely guessed Kou Zhun's identity, but before he could think about it, Kou Zhun shook his head and said to the ten guards' squad leaders: "Squad leader Zhang, if this is the case, send them to Hedutou outside the town, ask them to send someone to send them to Lingzhou and hand them over to the Lingzhou government... No! Hand them over to the Lingzhou Supervisory Office!"

Team leader Zhang agreed, and Kou Zhun turned around and left without looking at the six young men again.

Kou Zhun is very busy now, Dai Liwen and the others helped him for two months, and then he went back to prepare for the Xiangfu Kingdom's spring exam, and he didn't continue to ask Lingzhou for help from the civil servants, so he didn't want to waste time on these people .
