Chapter 154: All Poor


In the end, this incident ended with several officials being demoted, especially Wu Yushi, who was directly demoted to a local official and became a minor official.

After a commotion, many people finally looked back and found that the biggest winner was the emperor.

Not only did he successfully increase his popularity, he also beat up some of the most powerful nobles.

You see, the people of Hedong Road have already signed up for the Wanmin Book, and some people have traveled all the way to Chang'an City to complain.

You have done such a big thing, and the devaluation is considered a small thing.

If you don't take it to the end, it will never be restored.

If you use it, it will only give face to you aristocratic families.

After this beating, in a short period of time, the city of Chang'an was able to calm down for a while.

In this era, the emperor and the aristocratic families had such a relationship of mutual restraint and compromise.

It is not that Li Shimin would not be able to deal with these aristocratic families, but that he himself was from a noble family.

Although the Li family in this era was often questioned and looked down upon by some aristocratic families who claimed to have a deep historical background, Li Shimin's grandfather was Li Hu, one of the Eight Pillar States of the Western Wei Dynasty, and he also had intricate relationships with other noble families.

So it is true that he is also from a noble family.

Therefore, although there were constant conflicts within the group, Li Shimin never thought of taking over the entire gentry group, leaving only the Li family as the sole leader.

Although those aristocratic families often made trouble for him, they generally recognized the aristocratic status of the Li family, and they could still coexist peacefully without going to the point of fighting to the death.

This was very different from Wu Zetian's situation later.

Not the same.

Speaking of Wu Zetian, I heard that not long after their family returned from mourning, there were rumors that her brothers disrespected their mistress.

Then Yang took her three daughters and returned to Chang'an City.

This orphan and widower returned to live in Chang'an City, and her parents' family was the clan of the homeland.

Although they were of noble blood, they were still powerless after all.

This life would not be easy after all.

The Luo family is not having a good time now.

In just a few months, they have gone from being a wealthy family with considerable savings to becoming paupers.

Not only have they lost all their wealth, but they are still in debt.

However, at this time, there were still people willing to lend him money.

Luo Yong was also very pleased about this.

What makes Luo Yong even more gratified is that, although not all of his disciples have extraordinary courage, and some will panic when encountering crises, they always stand by Luo Yong.

He used his side and did not carry him away out of fear.

After this incident, all Luo Yong's disciples lived in Xipo Village.

Some lived in the sheep shed, and some lived in the cement workshop's dormitory.

They were divided into two groups to guard the east side of Xipo Village.

There are ravines to the south and mountains to the north.

As long as they guard the east and west, no one from outside can even think of sneaking into Xipo Village quietly.

These days, when people come to Xipo Village to buy cement, they can only trade in a place a little in front of the sheepfold.

The section from the cement workshop to the sheepfold is driven by their own workers one by one.

Push through.

Now that the alarm has basically been lifted, Luo Yong will not let them block the road anymore.

If the road is blocked, it will be inconvenient for people in his village to visit relatives.

There are also some merchants and hawkers who often buy goods and stay in the village.

This section Time is often blocked outside, making it very inconvenient to get in and out.

"Luo Si, why haven't you been out riding horses these past two days?"

On this day, Bai Yimao and others went out for a walk on horseback.

When they passed the village entrance, they saw Luo Si Niang squatting by the ditch washing clothes.

Xixi came up to her.

Although Luo Siniang's character is somewhat unpleasant, it is indeed quite interesting to play with her.

A young lady riding on horseback swinging her beard looks very fresh indeed.

"Who has time to play that?"

Si Niang was too lazy to pay attention to these people.

Their family was now in a lot of debt.

It was too late to make money all day long, so who could care about playing.

It's a pity.

I finally got on Uncle Bai's line and got on the big horse as I wished.

But before I even rode it a few times, something like this happened in Chang'an City.

Brother, again.

She works as a threshing machine all day long and gives it away to people.

Now their family is heavily in debt and they are still riding horses.

It's pretty impressive that she can still eat now.

"Isn't it just those promised debts?

If you are really worried, why not borrow some from me?"

Another young man sitting on horseback said next to him. "" Luo Siniang raised her eyes and glanced at this guy's slightly plump figure, and asked: "There used to be a fat man who fell off his horse and plunged into the ditch.

What do you think he became in the end?"

"Water Ghost" The fat man had a vague feeling that Luo Siniang was trying to make fun of him, but he was really curious about the answer to this question, so he answered accordingly.

"Damn fat man."

Luo Siniang twisted the clothes in her hands, threw them into the basket next to her, picked up the basket and left.

Huh, why I wanted to lend her money was just to show off that I was rich.

"Even" the fat man didn't react for a moment, so why did he start cursing so well?

"Let's go, you damn fat man, why are you still standing there in a daze?"

Several people nearby laughed and laughed.

"How much money do you have?

How much money do you have in your family?

You deserve to be scolded."

"With all the debts the Luo family owes now, even if it were you, I wouldn't dare to say such things."

"All these days of arithmetic have been wasted."

"How much money does their family owe?

Have you heard about it?"

"I haven't heard of it.

I won't know until I do some math."

"You still don't care about this" "Someone in the Xu family guest house calculated that you, the damn fat guy, was just sleeping."

"How much is it?"

"xxxxx" "ah" "Didn't you say you wanted to lend her money?

Why don't you take it out?"

"Don't you think you have any thoughts about Luo Siniang?"

"Don't talk nonsense.

How dare I compete with Baimao?"

"Feed the fat man to death" Luo Yong does owe a lot of money now, but the most terrible thing is that they continue to owe money, and his debt is increasing every minute and every second.

The craftsmen and refined iron promised by His Majesty the Emperor have not yet arrived.

Even if they arrive, Luo Yong will still have to continue to build the threshing machine with the original batch of manpower here.

Since it has been promised, it is natural.

The sooner you cash out the better, don't make people wait too long.

With so many craftsmen working and living here, they eat a lot every day.

In addition, there is also the consumption of raw materials, and although they previously said they would not pay for their wages, can Luo Yong really let them?

Are they working for nothing?

After all, they are all people who have to support their families.

These people don't need wages.

Although Luo Yong can save some money here, there are probably some old people, women and children who are going hungry in places where he can't see them.

These craftsmen who come to work for him are all from his family. pillar.

Luo Yong is racking his brains all day now, thinking about how to make money.

After much thought, he still thought of goose down pillows.

The profit of this business should be not low, and it is not eye-catching.

But before that, Luo Yong still needs to collect enough goose feathers.

When he has stocked up, he can then promote and advertise.

As long as the promotion is successful, profit will naturally be no problem.

Luo Yong hasn't touched the hundred pieces of silk previously given by His Majesty the Emperor.

The silk from the palace is all good silk, much better than the ordinary silk bought outside.

Use it to make goose down pillows.

The price is Of course it can't be lower.

Luo Yong has been thinking about how to advertise this time.

After all, pillows are relatively private things, unlike clothes and shoes that can be worn on the street.

At the same time, in Chang'an City, His Majesty the Emperor, who was the biggest winner in this incident, was not as proud as some people imagined.

"Your Majesty, all the fine iron stored in the treasury has been used to cast car chains.

Now we suddenly need so much fine iron.

It is really hard to get it."

When I heard that so much fine iron was being transferred to Xipo Village, , the relevant officials immediately started complaining.

"Why can't we get it out?

I didn't ask you to buy it with money before."

Several iron mines have not shipped refined iron to Chang'an City in recent days.

The emperor had previously considered using money to collect some from the private sector.

After all, at this time Salt and iron wine are both government-owned and private companies.

"But I don't have any money," the official said dejectedly.

He had previously received the emperor's order to go to the Ministry of Accounts to get money, but he was told there was no way he could get so much money.

He was worried, and was still trying to figure out how much money was left in the warehouse.

Whether he had no money or he was just pretending to have no money, before he could find out the result, His Majesty the Emperor asked him for fine iron again.

"There is no money left," His Majesty the Emperor said in surprise.

He remembered that he had some money before.

"We are burning cement and building roads, but the money is still being spent like running water."

Officials were also helpless.

"In my opinion, dear sirs, what should I do now?"

He is the emperor, and he must do what he says, and this batch of fine iron must be in place no matter what.

""These ministers were silent.

When you were lavishly gaining popularity, why didn't you ask them for their opinions?

Now that you have no money, let's ask them for their opinions.

Can they generate money or something like that?

""Where will this money come from?

The emperor was also worried at this time.

Those old men in charge of the household department said that they would not take out the money, so they definitely would not take out the money.

Indeed, a country's treasury cannot be spent without any obstructions.

Alas, sad. gd1806102:
