Two or three things about returning to Xiangcheng

"

"Your words are nice!" Dongfang Yuan smiled, and asked the servants to send Han Liang out without saying anything.

Han Liang came back a little late, and he was really happy, Dawa thought he was on the list, and the congratulators were delayed.So I asked, "What number?"

"What number? Me, I'm after Sun Shan."

"..." On the contrary, Dawa was speechless.

"Daddy! Where is Sun Shan?" The child doesn't know Sun Shan, but he can count. If he knows Sun Shan's rank, his father's rank can be counted.

"Sun Shan was the last one, so Dad failed the ranking!" Han Liang answered the child very easily.

"Oh! Then let's go home. We won't come here to be an official if the capital does this." The child was very comfortable, and Han Liang was even more comfortable.

"Let's eat!" It was Dawa who told Han Liang to eat, don't just talk to the child, it's time to say goodbye to Ma Wucai after the meal.

After lunch, the family went to buy some specialties of the capital.When they went back, Ma Wucai was waiting for them. He must have heard about Han Liang's failure and comforted him a little.

However, Han Liang had already looked away, and it turned into a farewell.Naturally, he wanted to keep him, but Han Liang had made up his mind to go, and now he couldn't wait to go back to Xiangcheng.The capital city in the north has been a little cold at night these days, and he still wants to go back to spend the summer as early as possible, and the autumn grain has been harvested, so it's time to collect rent again.

Ma Wencai also came to see him off, and said, "Mr. Han, will you take the exam again?"

"Ahem!" Han Liang slandered whether he should be so direct, "Look, I don't even bother to take the test after thinking about it. In this life, I don't have to worry about food and drink by collecting rent. I'm a person with no ambitions."

"Oh..." Ma Wencai obviously didn't believe it, but what does it have to do with him? It's all right to bother him when he goes back to Xiangcheng in the future, and it seems that it depends on fate to make a deep friendship.But the two of them are pretty good, at least Han Liang told the mysterious talent himself, it's a big wow, Han Liang naturally didn't admit that he said it because he felt indifferent after being seen through by Ma Sanyan.

Later, Dawa painted a few paintings specially, and gave them to friends as a bond of affection. Of course, this is for a later story, and it doesn't matter much.

When Han Liang's family drove the carriage back, it was much faster than when they came. The main reason was that they had seen the scenery along the way, and the time of nostalgia was shorter, so naturally it was faster.

It wasn't too late for them to go back, but the news that they won the prize had already reached Huixiang City.Because if there is anyone in the high school imperial list this year after returning to Xiangcheng, if there is no announcement to show off, naturally no one will be selected.

Hearing that there are people in Lincheng who are on the high school imperial list, and the people in Xiangcheng are not envious. What good is being an official, as long as they live a comfortable and comfortable life.

Returning to Xiangcheng is still the same, but there are more jugglers coming in. The people can go and see together when they have nothing to do. When chatting after dinner, apart from the short gossip of the parents, they also start to gossip about the stories of those characters.

The common people and traders in the capital were disappointed, or it can be said that they were not disappointed. The planned three-day closing of the market failed to materialize, because the emperor did not make that kind of notice at all, but came up with a new method of tax collection.

Small stalls and hawkers have received greater patronage, and it doesn’t matter if the middle-level merchants don’t feel pain or itch, only the big businesses are a little bit pained, but they are already arguing to separate their families, so it’s better to make such a fuss reason.

Naturally, the big business houses in the capital are the ones who are affected, but Huixiang City doesn't have a big business house, so I don't care about it.The only thing that is of concern is that there are three or five more people in the yamen, because the accounts of major commercial firms have to be reviewed every year.

If the firm is unwilling, there must be something tricky. Is it because the things sold by the Nong’s family are too expensive?This kind of reputation is not worth it, how will the business be done after it gets out, so let's check it out.Isn't it just that the family pays the tax bank? They are not short of money.

The end of this year.

The rouge shop sent Han Liang’s bonus again, Han Liang accepted the banknote with a smile, and finally said that shopkeeper Chen was getting more and more good at doing business, and the rouge gouache he made was much more ingenious than other rouge shops, Must make persistent efforts!

The bonuses from Wang Sanchan's juggling class were also sent, not a lot, but Han Liang signed and stamped everything he received, and everything was done according to the rules of the Daze Dynasty.Han Liang didn't need to worry about the bureau being able to hold a very safe money, so he was willing to cooperate.

That is to say, after the end of the year, after the accounts of the restaurant and the jade shop were verified, Han Liang wrote a transfer contract with them.From this moment on, the eater's house and the jade shop are officially not his, Han Liang's.

Now Han Liang only has a thousand acres of fertile land, and he is just a big landlord.The annual rent collection is not based on the proportion of the harvest, but the market price set that year. Now the harvest in good weather is much higher than that, but Han Liang still collects those.

As for whether to give the banknotes or the things he planted in the ground, Han Liang didn't insist.However, the current farmers have all been favored by Han Liang, and they usually give bank notes. If they are fresh, they will bring some fruits, but they will not bring crops such as oil extraction and milling.

When I went to burn paper money for Father Han this year, Han Liang cried, not because he was sad, but his father's last wish was not fulfilled.But after crying, Han Liang unfilially felt that he was light and refreshed, and the days to come would be his own.

So, this year's New Year's Eve, Han Liang smiled like a fool. The family had no snacks, drank, and set off fireworks. Finally, Shou Sui fell asleep and failed!

In the second year of Tianyuan, it came floating in the eyes of the people full of hope.

Ordinary people will not be worried, because they believe so much in this world that they can eat, drink, dress and even go out to watch a sideshow.

People live in peace and contentment, and people want better.So once the Lantern Festival is over, I get busy.

Compared to everyone's busy schedule, Han Liang is quite leisurely, especially since he sent his two children to the miscellaneous school to learn skills this year.In the morning, Dawa will send the children to school, and in the evening, Dawa will also send the children to school. The lunch at the school is also made by Dawa.Of course, Han Liang, who has been immersed in the esophagus for many years, doesn't often let his children bring meals, at most bring some snacks, and spend money to buy fresh meals when they are hungry at noon.

I used to plan to do scientific research. When I have nothing to do, I have books as a companion, which is more or less a pastime.Now that the emperor has said such things, he must have no way to do scientific research, so he also learned to start splashing ink and painting.

Without talent, I lost interest in making a few paintings and felt bad, so I spent more time relaxing and looking at the big wow in the garden.Dawa is actually free. It doesn’t take much time to send a child to cook a meal and pick a water, so in order not to let the skills in his hands get rusty, he sculpts some things from time to time.

Sometimes it's wood, sometimes it's stone, sometimes it's a fruit core.No matter what it is, Big Wow is also to pass the time. I won’t give it away and naturally I won’t sell it. Carve one out and show it to Han Liang. give him.

As for these carvings, they didn't exist for a long time, because Dawa would polish and smooth the carved things after a while, and then carve them into other things.Of course, it is conceivable that the carved things will become smaller and smaller, and finally all become powder in the garden.

Not all of them had such a fate. Occasionally, a few of them were taken away by relatives and friends who came to visit, and they became treasures that could be passed down to the family.

However, Han Liang is only in his twenties, so he can bear such a leisurely life.After only enduring it for a few months, Han Liang couldn't take it anymore. He said he wanted to make money.After the big deal is done, give it to others after the novelty is over, and then he sits there and collects the dividends.

You must know that the change of contract at the end of the year did not allow Han Liang to go out "freely" in the end. Whether it was the restaurant or the jade shop, Han Liang was given a share of the bonus every year.

Of course, for Han Liang now, silver is just a quantity to him.Han Liang sometimes looked at the more and more silver bills and couldn't help but sigh with emotion. Fortunately, there are such things as silver bills, otherwise where would so much money be placed!

But even if the silver bills are placed there, they still take up space, and no matter how good the craftsmanship is, they are essentially paper, and problems will arise if they are left for a long time.It's not a thing to think about it, so I went to Wuyan Bank.

The general idea is that the Mint cannot randomly increase the amount of banknotes so large. You must know that the amount of money printed now depends on demand, just like the banknotes of the bank in the past.It's too messy, if one day the amount of banknotes in the hands of the people is more than the silver hidden in the government, then it is simply too ridiculous, so that the people use it when buying and selling things, it will be a piece of paper!

It's like buying things with the printed New Year pictures of Xiao Qiao, it just doesn't make sense!

One afternoon, Han Liang and Wuyan Qianzhuang went back to the shopkeeper of the Xiangcheng branch, which was very hot.In the end, the most suitable method is that the Mint only prints a fixed amount of silver bills, and the total amount of silver bills printed must not be more than the silver in the inventory.

As for the required large denomination deposit amount, each bank is still responsible.No matter how large the amount is, it is also the bank's business, but at this time the bank notes printed by the bank are different from those printed by the housekeeper.

It means that whoever deposits the housekeeper's banknotes will print them to the banker's banknotes. The banker's banknotes can prevent them from directly buying and selling things, and when they go to the bank to withdraw the housekeeper's banknotes, they have to go there in person. Naturally, it is to ensure the money. safety.

In this way, a lot of details were discussed.

After discussing it, the two went to the county government office together the next day.The county magistrate listened to the ideas of the two of them and naturally expressed his ideas.
