Liu Xie didn't ask the girl's name, for fear of making any other taboos. Anyway, the girl came to enlist in the female knight, so sooner or later she would know who she was, and she was not in a hurry to talk.
Jia Xu didn't say much.
After saying a few gossips, the girl was pulled away by her female companion. Liu Xie and Jia Xu continued to stroll, playing with the comb in their hands, and couldn't help but sigh.
"A such a beautiful comb is worth nothing?"
"The people in the mountains are poor and very idle. Use cow horns and ox bones to make small items and exchange them for something, what is the value of?" Jia Xu said slowly: "If you barter, this cow horn comb can be worth it?"
Two liters of rice. His Majesty pays cash, of course it is even less."
"Liangzhou is so short of money?" Liu Xie still found it incredible. If a five-zhu coin could buy two liters of rice, then a stone of rice would be only fifty. According to the farming conditions in Liangzhou, rice could not be so cheap.
It can only be caused by lack of money.
"The world is short of money, not just Liangzhou." Jia Xu looked around. "So many people gather here, so the money is even short of money, almost a price per day. Your Majesty, be careful of your wallet, and your wealth will touch people's hearts."
Liu Xie laughed and turned to look at Jia Xu. "I am grateful for my words and deeds."
"If you meet a wise master, I dare not fulfill my responsibility." Jia Xu remained silent.
The two looked at each other and then chatted about the money shortage. Speaking of which, this was also a long-term problem. In the era of metal currency, money shortage has always been a big problem, and it was not until there was a nuclear-powered money printing machine that this problem was considered to be obtained.
A fundamental solution.
Of course, the fundamental problem was solved in the end.
Liu Xie couldn't imagine that far away. Even if it was a shortage of money, it was only caused by a temporary imbalance in supply and demand. With the current economic development level of Liangzhou, the shortage of money is not that serious.
However, after the Western Regions business roads are restored, the money shortage will sooner or later become a problem. It is not too early to think about it from now on. It is always good to take it in advance.
The best way is to find copper or gold ore.
Liu Xie remembered that there were gold mountains in the northwest, and there were many gold mountains. Most of these gold mountains were included in Russia in later generations, but now they are in the Han Dynasty. If the Xianbei people were also regarded as the people of the Han Dynasty.
It’s just that the Western Regions are too far away, and it seems unrealistic to go to gold now, so I can only wait for the future.
If you have the strength in the future, you can not only go to Europe to hunt for gold, but also go to America to hunt for gold.
I don’t know which forest the ancestors of the Anglo-Saxon bandits are now hunting and destroying them along the way. Or let them go to mining to contribute to the revitalization of the Heavenly Dynasty.
Liu Xie was fantasizing while wandering around.
Shi A, who pretended to be an ordinary warrior, suddenly stepped arbitrary, blocking a young woman who passed by Liu Xie and almost hit Liu Xie. She flicked her left thumb and unsheathed the knife around her waist, revealing half of the cold light.
The blade body.
"Stop! Take out the things and spare you."
The young woman glared at Shi A and sneered, "What a big deal, do you want to block the road and rob?"
"Do you know if I want to block the road and rob, or if someone wants to take the lead? "
Liu Xie subconsciously touched it and found that the purse on his waist had disappeared, and his cheeks couldn't help but twitch. Just now, Jia Xu reminded him that he was still arrogant and was touched away by someone in a blink of an eye. If Shi A hadn't stopped him
He doesn't know when he will find out.
"What do you say?" A young man squeezed over, blocked the young woman, and looked angry. "Who said that my sister was holding her hands? You don't ask, when is my girl short of money?"
"Yang Aruo?" Liu Xie felt that the name sounded a little familiar, and he seemed to have heard it somewhere.
"The east city is fighting each other, and the west city is fighting each other." Shi Ah laughed, slowly pulled out the ring-headed sword from her waist, and played with a knife. "Why, the wine is not enough for you to use, but you actually cut it to Jincheng.
Come?"
Yang Aruo raised his thick eyebrows and smiled brighter. "Have you actually heard my name? I'm quite a bit wise. Report the name and let me see who you are."
"Wei Ming is not worth mentioning." Shi A took a step back, held the knife in both hands, and made an aggressive posture. "Either hand over the purse or take my knife. Yang Aruo, don't you dare to do it or behave it?"
Before Yang Aruo could speak, the woman behind him raised her purse and rolled her eyes proudly. "The purse is here. If you have the ability, please get it."
"Okay!" A voice sounded behind the woman. Wang Yue flashed past the woman, grabbed the purse, came to Liu Xie, and presented it with both hands.
Liu Xie took the purse, weighed it in his hand, raised his head, and said to Yang Aruo: "If you can stop him from killing him, I will give this purse to you, how about it?"
The smile on Yang Aruo's face gradually dissipated, and he took two steps back, pressed his hand on the knife ring around his waist, but he was reluctant to draw the knife. He fought countless times with others, so he naturally knew the depth. The Shi Ah in front of him calmed down.
Xian, Wang Yue's body movement just now was even more amazing. Looking at Liu Xie, a few young men appeared unknowingly, and at a glance, you can tell that they are not mediocre men.
He was really unsure whether he could get out of here if he encountered a tough guy today.
"What if I can't stop it?"
"If you can't stop it, it depends on your luck. But I guess, in most cases, you will have no chance to cut people in the future and will only be chopped up."
"If I die, can I let my sister go?"
"It depends on my mood." Liu Xie smiled. "If you are not as strong as others, you can only be slaughtered. Isn't it your principle of conduct? It's fair to give your own way to the other person."
"You... you little lord, you look gentle and kind, you can't imagine that you are so cruel." The young woman's face turned pale, she gritted her teeth, grabbed Yang Aruo, and pulled out the short knife from her waist. "One person does things and one person does it, my sister Yang Amei in Jiuquan and
You fought hard.”
Liu Xie's smile remained unchanged, just looking at Yang Aruo.
Yang Aruo frowned and reached out to pull Yang Amei. Yang Amei ignored him, shouted fiercely, jumped up, and stabbed Liu Xie in the chest. Shi A chuckled, walked a little, and slashed with half a step, hitting her short knife.
, with a backhand, knocking her wrist.
Yang Amei screamed in shock, and fell to the ground with a short knife. She hugged her wrist. She was so painful that she was sweating in her cold sweat. Tears were circling in her eyes, but she refused to fall.
Yang Aruo sighed, pulled Yang Amei behind him, and pulled out the long sword. "I have fought with others for more than ten years. I can see such a wonderful sword technique, and I will never regret it even if I die."
Seeing someone fighting, the people around him immediately became excited and surrounded him.
Wang Yue and others did not dare to neglect them, surrounded them from all sides, so that no one could get close to Liu Xie. At the same time, someone took out the horn and was ready to ask for help from Hu Ben and Yulin who were on standby.
Wang Yi passed by the side and saw it clearly and couldn't help but be surprised.
When she was talking to Liu Xie just now, she did not notice Shi A and others around Liu Xie. At this moment, she saw so many young and strong men around Liu Xie, and they all had unique temperaments, plus the black knife around her waist.
Sheath immediately understood who the boy in front of her was.
Almost in an instant, she went out and shouted loudly: "A great man, I don't want to serve the country, but I fight with others in the market. Is your life so worthless?"
