Chapter 480 Help
Humming the dramatic tune that has recently emerged in the tiles and tiles, Hu Zi weighed the generous rewards this trip, and came to the butcher Li San's shop, and said proudly: "Come two taels of pigs!"
"Haha, is this getting rich? Are you willing to eat meat?" Butcher Li San knew Hu Zi well and laughed and joked.
It is rare for ordinary people to eat meat. After all, this is an era with not being developed in productivity. Even in the Ming Dynasty, which is known as cattle and sheep, not every ordinary person can eat meat often.
What's more, in the Song Dynasty, where there are more taxes and more oppression and exploitation, the wealth of ordinary people is concentrated in the hands of a few people, and it is difficult to even fill up twice a day, let alone eat meat.
Shenjiagang is dependent on the sea to eat, and ordinary people can sometimes get some fish from the sea to eat for tooth sacrifices, which is much better than farmers who can only rely on the weather to make a living.
"Haha, I met a good customer and ate noodles at Jeju Inn. Oh, that taste. If I hadn't been afraid of losing my manners in front of my customer, I would have been able to eat my belly until I was overwhelmed." Hu Zi recalled the food at Jeju Inn and was drooling unconsciously.
Since he was born, he has never eaten such delicious food. Today, he has opened his eyes with his kind-hearted customers.
"Oh! I actually had a meal at Jeju Inn? I heard that the one who was in charge there was still from Ming Dynasty." Butcher Li San did not hide his envy and flattered him.
He is a poor pig slaughter. Although his family can't starve to death with this craft, and sometimes he can get some unsold pork for a tooth-beating sacrificial sacrifice, he is not qualified to go to any wealthy place in Jeju Inn.
"That's right! The craftsmanship of the Ming Kingdom is really different from ours. If I can go to Ming Kingdom, I must learn to be a master."
"Hehe, it's not easy to go to Mingguo. I just trenched in the port, and the ship owner will take you there."
Due to the relatively open immigration policy, many business banks are willing to send people to Mingguo. At that time, tax reductions and deductions can be obtained from the Maritime Warehouse Department of Mingguo. Some businesses with strong shortages will also give some favors to the ship owners who help bring people. Under this stimulus policy, many ship owners are willing to bring more people into Mingguo.
However, this situation also attracted the attention of the Song State government. Especially in some inland areas, more people were taken away by their families, and the old men in some counties were inevitably criticized. In harbor places like Shenjiagang, the government has limited restrictions and the people have greater freedom of contact.
"Isn't this worrying about being at home? If my mother was younger, she would definitely take her to the Ming Dynasty with her to go to sea.
Everyone can eat enough, it is such an amazing world!”
"Hey! That's not it. The villain I killed this day, my pig-killing shop was levied all day long. One day I can't survive anymore, so I might as well go to Ming Kingdom." Butcher Li San was moved and said with a little anger.
After the two of them sighed for a while, Hu Zi went to the shop to buy a frostbite ointment. This thing was also from the Ming Dynasty. I heard that the winter in that place was very cold, so people were prone to being frostbite. This frostbite ointment was wiped when frostbite, so it would not be easy to get frostbite on their hands and feet.
And even if there is no frostbite, it can be used. It seems that if you use it frequently, you can keep your youthful and beautiful appearance. Many women in Shenjiagang like to buy it and apply it on their faces, as if they can return to the 28th youth.
This thing is also worthy of the price of compared to those perfumes and creams. Therefore, many ordinary people can afford it by saving a while and gritting their teeth.
Back at the adobe courtyard, Hu Zi rushed into the room while calling out to his mother. But his smile instantly froze on his face, because he was greeted by a sharp dagger.
"Don't shout, otherwise--" A man who looked very refined and pressed his dagger against Hu Zi's neck with a dagger, which scared him so much that he didn't dare to speak for a moment.
"It's not about making money and killing, so don't be afraid." Seeing Hu Zi's death, the man said again: "We have something to look for you. If we can do it, it will be a huge wealth."
"Zhuang-Heroic Man, the young man is just a little life. How can he help the hero?"
But the man did not care about Hu Zi's defense, but escorted him inside.
Now, he realized that there were so many people in his family.
"You-are you not the maritime business customers in the daytime?" He said in horror when he saw the familiar face.
Gao Mingshi also responded openly: "We have encountered some troubles and have no choice but to come to find you. If we can get out of here, we will be rewarded."
"Where is my mother?" Hu Zi searched for a while, and did not rush to agree to Gao Mingshi's request, but asked his own questions.
"It's right in the next room. If you don't feel at ease, you can go and have a look."
Hu Zi followed the person to the next room and found that his mother was sitting in the room sewing some torn clothes. Seeing his son coming, he immediately said anxiously: "Son! What kind of trouble did you cause outside? These people said they knew your friends, why didn't they look like her?"
Seeing several needle holes on the fingers covered with calluses, Hu Zi said with a little distress: "What they said is true. But now they are in trouble and ask their son to help. Today they also invited their son to the Jeju Inn for a meal. The taste was as delicious as the fairy dishes in the sky."
"Hu Zi! I don't ask you for wealth and prosperity for my mother, it's enough to be peaceful. If there is any case, be careful. My mother is useless and she doesn't have much life." Even if Hu Zi try to use the easiest tone to resolve the tense situation in front of her, his mother is not easy to cheat.
He couldn't help but feel a little sore when he heard this. At this time, Gao Mingshi also walked in and said a little rudely: "Old lady, it's really a last resort to come to the door in such a rude way. We are not vicious bandits, and we won't take the lives of you, mother and son. It's just that there is an errand that needs your son's help. If it can be done, we will definitely thank you very much."
Then he told Huzi that he would help find a boat at the dock. At the same time, he also helped to explore the wind outside and see where all the pirates caught were locked up today.
At this time, he did not hide his identity as a Ming country. Moreover, unlike those fake Ming people who have never left Song but have become Ming people, he really came from Ming country and is considered a real Ming country.
