I, the Ming Dynasty, can still save me

Chapter 376 The wealthy Mongols
"You all stand up. Punishing corrupt officials has nothing to do with you."

Yang Lian waved his hand to tell the kneeling workers to get up quickly, but he also knew that the reason why these people knelt down to thank them was simply because they were afraid that the officials at the construction site would retaliate against them after he left.

"Don't worry for now, this matter has been taken care of by me. Our wages were originally four qian a month, but these evil-hearted officials were so greedy that they offered us [-] qian a month."

The imperial court will never tolerate such a treacherous and greedy person, and neither will I.Later, I will instruct people to repay everyone the wages they owe. You must not suffer a loss. "

Everyone was originally worried that the official would be angry with them afterwards, but they didn't expect that the high official actually said that he would pay them back wages.

This made everyone excited. They had long forgotten what they had done to anger them, and they quickly knelt down and shouted, Lord Qingtian.

"Shangguan loves the people so much. I am so grateful that I can't help but feel grateful. Finally, we met a parent who treats us well. It's such a kindness that we will never forget."

The old man who knelt down was even more excited. After living for so many years, he had never met an official who was not greedy.In his opinion, officials in the world are generally bad, and if they are less corrupt, they are good officials.

But I didn't expect that the high official in front of me would be so upright. Not only would he be angry because of the corruption of these officials, but he would also miss these common people.

This immediately made him admire him. Thinking of this, he felt very ashamed and couldn't help but said:

"Master Qi, I didn't know how much the original salary was just now. I was afraid of being lectured later, so I could only say more about the salary.

In fact, we earn one cent and five cents a month. If it hadn't been for the severe drought this year and there was really no way to survive, and the food was taken care of here, we would never have come to work here. "

As soon as these words came out, the people around him nodded and talked about how difficult it was for them.

Yang Lian was secretly frightened when he heard this, and he hated those corrupt officials even more.

Everything in Liaodong is extremely expensive. You can't do anything with a penny or five cents. It's hard for these people to survive.

Thinking of this, he also repeatedly reassured everyone, asking them to work as they should, and promised that as long as they did their job well, this kind of work-for-relief would never stop.

When all the people heard this, they suddenly felt grateful and shouted that Yang Lian was really Bao Qingtian alive.

Yang Lian was still worried about this, and even personally distributed the wages, inspected the projects, and supervised the officials at the construction site to distribute the wages to the workers one by one. Only then did he feel relieved.

Although this approach made everyone very satisfied and their enthusiasm for work increased sharply, it was also too time-consuming.Yang Lian's original three-day trip was delayed to ten days.

And he can no longer stay. Three letters from Xiong Tingbi urging him to return to Liaoyang have come.This forced Yang Lian, who originally wanted to stay for a few days, to explain the matter, and then quickly set off for Liaoyang.

……

Liaoyang Nancheng.

"drive!"

Several teams of messengers rode quickly through the crowd, causing a lot of excitement in the crowd, but people had long been accustomed to this.

After the messenger ran by, order was quickly restored. It felt as if nothing had happened, and the usual bustle returned.

The shouts and shouts stopped immediately from the market.

"Come and see, the century-old wild ginseng has just been dug out of the forest."

"The best Su Jin has just been shipped from Jiangnan. The price is negotiable."

The merchants in the market immediately became interested when they heard the word "Su Jin" and immediately gathered around the stalls selling Su Jin.

"This thing has just been shipped from Gaizhou Wei. If the imperial court had not opened a sea transport, it would have cost at least 20 taels of silver to transport it to Liaodong. Now it only costs [-] taels of silver a piece." Seeing people surrounding the stall selling Su Jin The main voice immediately became louder and introduced the price to everyone.

The merchants in this market are all smart people. Although they know that Su Jin is indeed precious in this land of Liaodong, ten taels of silver a piece is really expensive.

"This Su Jin only costs five taels of silver a piece in the capital, but yours is twice as expensive. It's really too expensive."

The stall owner immediately became anxious upon hearing this. He immediately stood up and pointed at his nose and retorted:
"Can this be the same? Then go to the capital and buy it! If the sea transportation hadn't been opened, the price would have been twice as expensive. If you don't buy it, don't make any noise. Just go away."

Seeing the stall owner choking like this, no one said anything more. Some people thought it was not worth it and immediately turned away.

But there were still many people stopping at the stall and looking at the dozens of Su Jin pieces on the stall table.After all, this thing is very rare in Liaodong, but it is too expensive.

"I want it all!"

At this time, a voice suddenly sounded from outside the crowd, which made people startled and quickly heard it.

I saw a thin man with a bun on his head, wearing a brocade robe and a red waistcoat walking over.There were two guards following behind him, watching everyone vigilantly.

Everyone immediately understood why this person bought them all. Based on his appearance, he looked like a Mongolian nobleman.

The stall owner who was so unscrupulous was overjoyed when he heard that he wanted to buy them all. He immediately ran around the stall and walked in front of the man.

"Taiji has great vision. Even in our Ming Dynasty, this Su brocade is the best silk. It is even more suitable for your noble status."

When the Mongolian nobleman heard him calling him Taiji, he asked curiously:
"You are quite smart. There are many Mongolians in Liaoyang City, and you can actually guess my identity."

"Hey, you must be very noble. I saw from a long way that you are either rich or noble. And I heard that Tai Ji from the Ongjirat Department of Khalkha came to Liaoyang to discuss matters in the past few days, so I I would venture to guess that with your nobility, you are definitely one of the lucky ones."

When Taiji heard this, he immediately laughed. Looking at the stall owner who was bowing and talking, he felt that he was really good at making people happy with his words.

"It is said that Han merchants are cunning and eloquent, and now it seems that they are indeed the case. I am worried that there will be no good things.

I saw that your Su Jin is very good today, so I want all of it. If you still have some good ones, send them all to Beicheng. I want them all.Subhay pays! "

When the stall owner heard this, his face was so happy that he smiled crookedly. He quickly and respectfully took the money handed over by Taiji guard Su Bahai.

"Thank you Taiji, thank you Taiji. I still have some good goods from the south of the Ming Dynasty. I will deliver them to you when the time comes."

The Mongolian Taiji nodded when he heard this and didn't care much about it. He immediately asked the stall owner to deliver the goods to his house in Beicheng, Liaoyang, and then walked away with his hands behind his back and went elsewhere.

This scene made everyone present look very excited.

"These people from Inner Khalkha are so rich that they can buy such expensive silk whenever they want."

A merchant who came from Gaizhou Wei had never seen such a wealthy Mongolian before, and he immediately sighed with emotion.

"It's not all the imperial court's money! I'm afraid that when I come to Liaoyang this time, I'll ask for money again."

As soon as these words came out, the people around him nodded in agreement.

And in the crowd, a man dressed as a servant was thoughtful after hearing these words, then turned around and ran towards the exit of the market.
