A great man of the Northern Song Dynasty

Explanation on prices in the Northern Song Dynasty 1

Regarding the price of goods in the Northern Song Dynasty, many book friends are questioning that the rent is too high and unreasonable. Sir, I would like to explain it here.

Living in the capital is not easy, this is an iron rule. Just like in Peiping today, the housing prices are directly on the plane.

Speaking of housing prices in Bianliang, it has been a long-standing problem as early as the Taizong period. Most people could not afford it, and even the prime minister had a headache.

Xiang Minzhong, the Prime Minister during the Zhenzong Dynasty, bought a house with 5,000 guan, but was accused of using his power to 'buy' the house at a low price...

Pay attention, five thousand guan is still a cheap buy!

Xiang Minzhong took the blame and dismissed him.

Look, a prime minister was in trouble because of buying a house.

But Xiang Minzhong is not an isolated case.

In the Renzong Dynasty, there was also a prime minister who was unlucky because of his house.

That is Zhang Fangping.

Zhang Fangping, who was the third envoy at the time, took advantage of his power to not only purchase the house first, but also to buy the house at a lower price. In the end, he was dismissed as prime minister because of this.

Both prime ministers were in trouble because of houses, so one can imagine how high housing prices are.

During the Northern Song Dynasty, housing prices in Bianliang City became more expensive the closer they were to the imperial city, and the price of luxury homes was even more expensive, ranging from hundreds of thousands to millions of dollars.

Yulin Lane is close to the Imperial City, with Daxiangguo Temple on the left, Imperial City on the right, and Imperial Street in front...

what is this?

To paraphrase today: Brother, this is a prime location, a mansion with unparalleled sea view!

or?

How much?

Can we not mention the money?

Three rooms for one room are not expensive, really not expensive.

Senior officials cannot afford to buy a house, so they have to rent a house. In such a general environment, one can imagine the housing prices and rents in Bianliang.

I have spent a lot of time on commodity prices and collected a lot of relevant information.

For example, the price of rice, for example, the price of doudou...

There is even a price for redeeming a prostitute: Liu Yong spent 80 yuan to redeem a prostitute in Hangzhou.

Yes, you read that right, that’s the price.

For example, the cost of taking a bath in a bathhouse was usually ten to twelve cents. At that time, bathhouses did not provide separate back rubs and shaves, so you had to spend additional money.

Shaving costs ten cents, which is about the same as taking a bath...

All of the above just want to tell everyone that Jazz is serious and does not dare to fool everyone.

Okay, let’s continue coding. I’ll finish the chapter at 16:00.
