Chapter 29 The Warriors Come to Cast

The monetary system of this world is quite similar to that of ancient China. Gold is a valuable item and is rarely used for direct transactions. Perhaps it is precisely because of this that Zhang Luochen's use of gold coins is so eye-catching.

Silver is a relatively common large-value currency, including silver beans (one qian), silver slots (five qian), silver ingots (one liang, five liang, twenty liang, etc., and there are also silver blocks that can be cut directly, which can be used for trading as long as there is a scale.

One tael of silver can buy about one stone (120 kilograms) of grain. Of course, this is just about the price difference between different regions, different grains, and different year scenes.

As for income issues, the income gap in this world is very huge. If a farmer has ten acres of land, he will only have about two thousand kilograms of grain planted a year. After paying taxes, he will keep enough food for himself and the grain used to make seeds. At most, he will only have a few hundred kilograms left, which is a few taels of silver. If he has a family, he will be difficult to save even a tael of silver, and he will just barely survive.

This is still a self-cultivated farmer with land. If a tenant who rents other people's land and rents it, let alone making money, it would be nice to have something to eat and not starve to death.

Moreover, these are still on the premise that the year is acceptable, let alone the year of disaster.

Compared with the countryside, the city is slightly better. A waiter can earn a few dollars a month and can make three meals a day. A good chef can earn three or five taels a month. If a well-known chef in the county town, he can earn ten or eight taels a month.

If Yang Baichuan can earn 180 taels of silver a year, it is already an extremely high income. Of course, this is because he is also the top among hunters. He can hunt beasts like tiger bears. The fur of these beasts is often very valuable. You can buy more than ten taels or even dozens of taels of silver at one piece. However, ordinary hunters are much worse. In addition, hunting in the mountains is extremely risky, so it is not easy.

The real rich people are the princes and royal families of various countries, noble families, and those rich merchants and wealthy vassals.

The world is very feudal. Some great nobles often have tens of thousands of miles of fiefdoms and a lot of land. They can save countless land rents in just one year.

The previous owner Du Zhuang was a small vassal of the Southern Zhou Kingdom. He had thousands of acres of land, otherwise how could his family be so wealthy?

After hearing this, Zhang Luochen nodded. It seemed that ordinary people in this world lived a hard life. It was a bit too high-profile to spend gold coins so casually before. It would be fine if he was surrounded by his side and had a prominent voice. But he would inevitably show his wealth alone and would inevitably attract people's covetousness. He must pay attention in the future.

"Thank you for answering the questions, by the way, I have some gold coins here. I wonder if I can ask the Taoist priest to help me change some broken silver copper coins, no matter how much, it will be easier to spend it in the future."

As he said that, he took out ten gold coins and handed them over.

Hong Zhouzi took the gold coins and nodded, "Then I'll hand it over to the old Taoist. I'll do this tomorrow, but I'll say where are the young masters going next?"

Zhang Luochen stood up and pondered at the sunset for a moment, "Longguan County."

His experience during the day gave him a reminder that the biggest threat in this world is not the monsters, but humans.

Most demons and monsters only hide in the mountains and forests to harm people, and it is difficult to encounter them. Every time they encounter them, they know that the other party is an enemy, and they just need to fight. However, humans are a complex animal. If you want to have a good time in this world, you have to understand the customs and customs of this world. Therefore, it is very necessary to go to a larger city to experience it and collect some information and information.

In addition, he needs to continue to improve his own strength. After all, there are many small monsters like Crow Ridge that are hard to come by. So since it is not easy to upgrade, let’s practice your professional skills first.

Practicing professional skills requires a lot of resources, various ores, herbs, fabrics, and other messy things. These things are not available to Rongyang Town, a small place. You must go to a more prosperous city to get them.

So to sum up, Zhang Luochen chose the nearest county town here - Longguan County Town.

Zhang Luochen has learned about some of the surrounding geographical conditions. This Longguan County is the intersection of the east, west, south and north trade routes. It has a strong commercial atmosphere. Whether it is intelligence or various resources, it is very easy to obtain as long as you have money.

Hong Zhouzi didn't seem surprised by Zhang Luochen's choice, "Since that's the case, the old Taoist will go to prepare tomorrow. Master Zhang will tell you when he set off, and Master Zhang will go with him."

"By the way, Mr. Zhang, are you planning to take them on the road together?"

Zhang Luochen shook his head, "Forget it, I have the guardians and the sky, so I don't need much protection. I used to hire guards to respond to emergency responses. In addition, the three of them are locals, families and families, but it is not convenient to travel far away."

Although Zhang Luochen thought so, he unexpectedly came to the door early the next morning.

"Young Master Zhang, I heard from the Taoist priest that he will leave in the past two days?"

Zhang Luochen said, "Yes, what's the point of seeing Lao Yang?"

"I don't dare to take it when I see you, but if Mr. Zhang refuses to abandon you, Mr. Yang is willing to follow the master, but I don't know if the master is willing to accept it."

Zhang Luochen was a little surprised. He didn't mind having such an experienced hunter around him as a follower. Yang Bai was superb archery skills and rich experience in the wild. He was also very brave and had a responsible personality. But doesn't this person have an old lady to support him?

He asked his doubts, and Yang Baichuan scratched his head and grinned a little embarrassedly, "The good teacher knows that it is my mother who asked me to come to find the master."

It turned out that after Yang Baichu went home yesterday, he told his mother about his experience.

After hearing the thrilling days of listening to Zhang Luochen's identity as an immortal master, Yang's mother became very excited. After listening to Yang Baichu's story, she said to him earnestly.

"My son, since that Xian Master Zhang is doing the work of subduing demons and saving people and saving the world, what if you help him? The so-called birds who choose wood can meet good trees, and the ministers who choose masters can meet good masters. Your martial arts and ancestral archery skills are so great. If you are just a hunting and skinning hunter, how can you be willing to do this in your life?"

"If I could travel around the world with that immortal master, subdue monsters and eliminate monsters, and do some achievements, I might be able to shine my ancestors and leave some of my deeds to pass on to later generations.

Besides, reading thousands of books is not as good as traveling thousands of miles. You are so rough and unrestrained. If you can go out and explore and broaden your horizons, it will be a waste of your life. How many reasons do you think are mothers?"

After listening to his mother's words, Yang Baichuan was greatly touched. This world was a chaotic world. Over the past few hundred years, many heroes stood out in the war, gained status, and left behind legends of their achievements.

Yang Baichuan claimed that he was great at archery and could beat tigers and leopards with courage. Although he was usually taciturn, how could he not have the intention to make achievements and how could he have no similar ideas?

However, he has neither family background nor friends. If he joins the army rashly, he can only be a pawn in front of the horse. At that time, he may not be able to achieve his achievements and can only be used as cannon fodder for others.

At this time, Yang's mother's words showed him another way out.

However, after hesitating for a moment, Yang Baichuan shook his head, "What should I do if my mother leaves?"

But Yang's mother shook her head, "My son, I'm already sixty-five, and it's rare to be seventy years old. I have a few more years to live. How can I ruin your rare opportunity for me, a disabled old woman?

If you are really worried, you will send me to your second brother's house. Although your second brother is a little tired, he is also a little filial. He just doesn't have any serious business and refuses to farm well. You will spend the money you saved over the years with him and do some small business transactions. I can't help you.

Wouldn't you be free and easy when you set out with that immortal master?
