Chapter 21 Change of Dynasty

"These few houses in the Song family only cost ten taels." Song Heng said and couldn't help but smile. This was really confusing.

Pei Yu silently made a calculation in his mind. He estimated that it would cost around 100,000 yuan. A house in a rural area would cost around 200,000 yuan. Then he thought about the prices in this world. Two eggs were only worth a penny. In terms of purchasing power,

This should be the purchasing power of the 1980s!

Eggs in this world are really valuable. Unlike feed, you can get as much as you want, so a penny is very expensive.

Suddenly, Pei Yu's eyes were shining with gold when he looked at the money. Unexpectedly, he would become rich in one day!

"No, how did the original owner and his wife get so much money?" Pei Yu couldn't figure it out after she came to her senses. When the original owner got married, the dowry was quite large, with a full five taels of silver in the box. It seemed that the Pei family was also wealthy.

ah.

Song Heng thought about it: "Have you forgotten, didn't my father sell family calligraphy and paintings the year I gave birth to my second child?" Now Song Heng and Pei Yu both brought themselves into it very naturally, without any jamming at all.

At this point, Pei Yu's memory came out. When the original owner gave birth to Song Mingyi, Song Heng's father did sell a scroll. It seemed to be an antique calligraphy and painting, and it seemed to be quite valuable.

The Song family has always been a single generation. Pei Yu has had two children for three years since he entered the house, and they are both sons. Song's father should not be overjoyed.

But thinking about the troubled times and difficult times, Father Song was also afraid that something might happen to his two grandsons, so he was so cruel that he sold the scroll passed down from his ancestors. It was passed down from his ancestors and was said to be a treasure of the ancestors. But for the sake of his grandson, Father Song did not hesitate.

Later, Song's father passed away, and the money naturally belonged to the original owner. It turned out that Song Heng didn't care about the money, because Song's father had told Pei Yu that the money must be handled by Pei Yu. The original owner was a bit impatient, but his brain was easy to use and he was serious.

Speaking of which, the original owner managed the family well, and with this money, even if the world was in chaos, the couple did not let the children really go hungry.

Over the years, most of the money has been spent. Ever since Song Lao and Song Lao Er were older and could carry the ground, the original owner hid the remaining money and rarely used it. Now the troubled times have just calmed down.

No one knows whether there will be another chaos in a few years. The original owner and his wife are very cautious. Even if they live a tiring life, they still know how to hide their family wealth.

What they are afraid of is that war will resume in the future, and what they are even more afraid of is that money attracts attention. This is why the Song family is living so hard now. The family's expenses and income are basically the same.

But even if the couple hides tightly, the Song family is not living a very good life, but in the eyes of outsiders, their family is still a well-off family with a history of raising people, and those who are thoughtful are secretly calculating in their hearts how much wealth the Song family has.

.

Fortunately, the Song family has not been outstanding in these years. Although it is better than most other families, it is not the best family. This is just a guess. Most people don't really care about the Song family. They are more or less keeping an eye on it.

.

After all, the original owner and his wife had many children. They had to raise one child and support the other. This did not cost money to raise children. Even if they had a strong family and raised five children, they would have to spend money on it.

In the troubled times, every family did not have enough to eat, and those who had many children would often have one or two children die in infancy. The Song family did not have enough to support each other, not to mention that every son of the Song family had to study and be literate, even if the Song family still had a child.

Some books were taught by Song Heng himself, but he had to pay for the pen and ink.

Song Heng saw that Pei Yu had understood, and coughed to bring her back to her wandering thoughts: "With these money, I have a foundation. I have been observing the Song family in the past few days, and my memory has almost been sorted out. Let's

If you want to truly be yourself and don’t want others to notice anything strange, you can only change your family background and start the imperial examination again.”

This is the conclusion that Song Heng came to after thinking about it. The Song family is now simply a farming family. Since it is a farmer, it is naturally the way of the villagers. Once the lintel of the Song family is raised, this family style and the behavior of the Song family will naturally be improved and changed.

Even if he changes a little by then, people who are familiar with him will only think that it is due to his change of identity. This refers to not only the children of the Song family, but also the Song family members and everyone who knows Song Heng and his wife.

Identity and status are related to everything. Once the identity changes, the behavior will inevitably change. This does not arouse doubts, and even most people think that this is the case.

Pei Yu nodded immediately after hearing this: "Then you go and take the imperial examination. You will definitely pass!"

When Pei Yu thought about Menlin, the first thing that came to his mind was the imperial examination. In ancient times, scholars, farmers, industry and commerce were suppressed by the hierarchy. Now they are farmers. If they want to go further, they can only become scholars!

Besides, Song Heng was originally the legitimate son of a noble family, and he was a powerful minister of the emperor in his previous life. Being an official would not be a problem for him at all! This is a natural advantage!

After replying to Song Heng, Pei Yu's hands were not idle. He found a smaller wooden box and took his wallet and purse, ready to divide the money.

Well, eggs can't be put in one basket. She has a big family now, so she has to be careful with her money.

Song Heng was still happy that Pei Yu believed in his ability: "I do have this plan."

Song Heng's grandfather was originally a civil servant. Now that the world is stable, it is natural for him as a grandson to want to take the imperial examination and regain his family name. No one will doubt him on this point. Moreover, the original Song Heng has never stopped studying, so it is not unexpected.

.

"Now that the new dynasty has been established for three years, there should be no major changes in the court. It's just that if you really want to get a career in the exam, it will probably take several years. There's no need to rush. Let's take our time." Song Heng lowered his eyes and looked at it.

Pei Yu's fingertips were a little distracted, but her tone remained calm and serious.

Pei Yu is a clear-thinking person. While counting the money, he nodded in agreement with his decision: "Well, let's take it slow. First, we should improve the situation at home. We can't become fat with one bite. We also have to take our time in setting up our characters."

Turn around, the time just isn’t right.”

Pei Yu had the memory of the original owner and knew something about it. The current dynasty was newly established, and the current emperor was the founding emperor. It was said that the last emperor of the previous dynasty was extremely young. After his brother died, he became the first heir. When the emperor was young, he only cared about luxury.

He lived his life in a dull and unprincipled way. He only reigned for five years before the people were filled with resentment. What's funny is that before the people could rise up, the young emperor played himself to death. It was said that he was very charming.

Naturally, the emperor was young and had no heir, so once he died, the court would be in chaos. At that time, the princes of various fiefdoms took advantage of the chaos and fought for power for nearly twenty years. The world was also in chaos for twenty years.

Fortunately, those princes still had brains and did not become confused and declared themselves kings, otherwise it would be even more chaotic. The new emperor was established three years ago. It is said that he is the prince of the previous generation of the royal family. He is not much older than the last emperor of the previous dynasty.
