Chapter 11 Lao Li's former husband

But he is just a part-time worker, and the big boss has not deducted his salary, so what can he do?

"Don't be glib. I am nearly fifty and have already died. No need to say more." Master Yinshi chose to die with the bankrupt Sui Company.

Li Zhiyun was not surprised by this. During the siege of the city, Lao Li also sent Liu Wenjing to persuade Yin Shishi to surrender.

It's a promotion and a salary increase, which are great benefits.

Then, Master Yinshi still refused.

"That's alright." Li Zhiyun gave Xie Shufang a look, and the latter understood, and asked the jailer to open the cell door and carry Yin Shishi to behead him.

Before leaving, Master Yin Shi didn't forget to turn around and curse: "Everyone must punish the traitors and traitors. I'm waiting for you below!"

Li Zhiyun said calmly: "Everyone is destined to die. It may be lighter than a feather, or heavier than Mount Tai. When we clean up the old mountains and rivers, if we die again, this life will not be in vain."

Master Yinshi had a mouthful of blood lodged in his throat, and his feet dragged long traces on the ground.

Li Zhiyun had no interest in seeing Master Yin Shi be beheaded. He just came to go through the process and then went back to tell Lao Li what had happened.

When a group of people were about to leave the prison, they met two jailers escorting a thin man with a deer-headed and rat-like eyes.

The man's face turned pale and he couldn't help begging for mercy, but the jailer said helplessly: "Yin A Shu, if you can pay off your debt as soon as possible, maybe you don't have to come here."

Wait, what's his name?

Li Zhiyun paused and looked at that person.

Although the two jailers did not know Li Zhiyun, they knew Du Ruhui, who had just taken office.

"See Du County Cheng."

Du Ruhui nodded and introduced: "This is the Prince of Tang, the Duke of Chu."

"See the Duke of Chu."

"Excuse me." Li Zhiyun waved his hand and asked, "What crime did this person commit?"

The jailer said: "My lord, this man's name is Yin Ashu. He is a well-known idler in the east. He does not work in production on weekdays and likes to gamble. Yesterday he borrowed twenty ounces of money from someone and promised to return it to the creditor today, but he did not cash it.

, the man reported him to the government in anger, and the IOU is written in black and white here."

The jailer handed over the IOU.

Yin Ah Shu quickly defended himself and said, "You're wronged, sir. The villain agreed with Wang Dayan that the interest would only be increased by 10% a day, but he increased the interest tenfold, and even tampered with the IOU. The villain was wronged."

Yes, the father-in-law makes the decision for the villain!"

"Shut up!" Du Ruhui scolded: "You are idle and gambling excessively. Why didn't you think of this when you borrowed money?"

Yin Ashu pursed his lips and shrank his head, daring not to speak.

No wonder Yin Ah Shu would beat Du Ruhui later. It turned out that the relationship was formed at this time.

Li Zhiyun scanned the IOU and instantly understood the word trick on it, interest compounded, and now Yin Ah Shu owes someone three hundred dollars.

According to the current purchasing power of copper coins, three hundred coins is about 80,000 soft sister coins.

It could have been more valuable, but due to the chaos in the world, Chang'an's economy was affected to a certain extent, which led to a decrease in the purchasing intensity of copper coins.

Also, the bad money circulating destroys the market.

Li Zhiyun asked curiously: "You dare to ask for money like this, why didn't you die?"

These days, who doesn’t know how to kill someone with two kitchen knives? Have you ever seen someone who is interested in compounding profits and going to the government to make the decision?

The normal painting style should be;

‘Pay back the money.’

'I have no money.'

'If you don't have money, you can give your mother-in-law, your daughter, your mother, and all the valuables in your house to me to pay off the debt.'

The more ruthless one opened his mouth and said, 'No money? I will sell your daughter to Zuimenglou!'

Zuimenglou is a business unit in Pingkangfang that studies human body art. It competes with various departments under the Youli Department for business.

Of course, someone wanted Yin Ah Shu's life. The creditor even hacked to death a dog in front of his house with a knife.

However, at this time the rebels entered the city.

Lao Li delivered a speech, calling for long-term peace and stability in Chang'an, improving the living standards of Chang'an people, severely punishing illegal and criminal activities, and cracking down on bad elements.

Then the creditor got scared and didn't dare to take the risk at this time, so he chose to take the right path.

Hand Yin Ah Shu over to the government.

"The villain doesn't know." Yin Ashu replied.

Li Zhiyun nodded, accepted the IOU, and said: "As the order of Chang'an, I will give everyone a satisfactory deal. This IOU is indeed unreasonable, and I will give you an explanation."

Yin Ashu was dumbfounded, Du Ruhui was dumbfounded, and all the jailers were even dumbfounded.

Why should the Duke of Chu be serious about such a trivial matter?

Du Ruhui was dumbfounded and found it unbelievable. He had always felt that Li Zhiyun was just transitioning into the position of Chang'an Ling. In the future, the person who would actually serve as Chang'an Ling would only be someone else, not such a delicate young master.

But now it seems that it is different from what I thought.

Yin Ah Shu thanked him profusely and was dragged off to prison by the jailer, while Li Zhiyun ordered someone to summon the creditor.

Du Ruhui said: "Mr. Chu, this market lending has been very rampant since the Kaihuang period. If you want to cure it, it will be difficult."

Lao Du, have you misunderstood me? I have no intention of curing it.

Li Zhiyun is not a fool. Even in the civilized era, this thing cannot be banned. Now we need to cure it. Isn’t this an iron-headed boy?

"Although the road is dangerous, we are willing to go there." Li Zhiyun smiled freely, waved his sleeves, and left gracefully.

Du Ruhui had great respect in his heart. He was worthy of being the son of Duke Tang, and he cared about the common people!

What happened next was much simpler. When the creditor heard about Li Zhiyun's identity, he immediately said he didn't want the money and tore up the IOU on the spot.

Perfection, peace.

However, Du Ruhui still insisted on letting Yin Ah Shu write the IOU again, but he eliminated the unreasonable parts of the original IOU.

As the Chang'an Order, Li Zhiyun's current important task is to stabilize the environment, stabilize food prices, and win back the hearts of the people.

The latter two complement each other, the price of food is stable, and the people's hearts are naturally attached to it.

The first thing to do was to crack down on unscrupulous lawbreakers, so Li Zhiyun appointed Duan Zhixuan as deputy commander of the army, and he would work with Chang'an City hussar general Li Sixing to maintain public order.

A few days later, with great success, Li Zhiyun went to the Tang Palace to report the matter.

Lao Li affirmed his son's work and encouraged him to continue working hard and not to live up to the high expectations of the people of Chang'an.

"Regarding the price of grain in Chang'an, it is already 300 yuan per pound of rice. Judging from the trend, it will continue to rise. Although the price is high, people are still rushing to buy grain. I privately believe that it is inappropriate to stockpile grain blindly and will only make the people miserable.

It’s even more panic. It’s better to put grain out and let the people buy it. The grain stores will always be full and there will be no shortage. This will make the people feel at ease.”

The chief secretary of the Prime Minister's Mansion, Chen Shuda, who had just been granted the title of Duke of Handong County, strongly agreed with Li Zhiyun's words.

"My lord, what the Duke of Chu said is a good policy. The common people in the market are afraid of running out of food. If the government allows them to buy food, it will make them think that the government's granary is full and stop grabbing food. In this way, the price of food will naturally rise.

smooth."

Li Yuan nodded, "It makes sense, so let's do it."

Compared with this matter, Li Yuan now wants to know more about his status in the hearts of the people of Chang'an and whether he is trusted.

"The people are the foundation of the country. If the people are uneasy, the country will also be uneasy. The Supreme Emperor has great regard for Guanlong, but he doesn't know what the people's support is."

Hearing this, Dou Wei and Dou Kang, who were sitting not far away, opened their eyes.
