The strongest emperor of the Tang Dynasty.

Chapter 12
This action frightened the stall owner, and Luo Tong actually gave him a piece of five taels of silver.That's the annual expenditure of ordinary people's families.It was actually taken out from the hands of a ten-year-old child.You say it doesn't surprise anyone.

In the early Tang Dynasty, the purchasing power of one tael of silver should not be underestimated.If grain is used as the equivalent unit to convert, it is equivalent to more than 4000 now.Luo Tong took out five taels of silver, which was 2 yuan.

(Silver should be circulated as currency after the Ming Dynasty, but for ease of calculation, Dragon Soul can only go with the flow. That is, one tael of silver is equal to Yiguanqian, and Yiguanqian is equal to one thousand Wen, which is equivalent to 4000 yuan. Don’t like it, don’t spray it .)
Seeing the stall owner staring blankly at the ingot of silver in his hand, Luo Tong asked in puzzlement, "Why doesn't the boss have enough money?"

"Young master, it's not enough, it's really too much. Don't just buy a few rounds of silver, it's more than enough to buy the entire booth of the little old man. If you want to play, Just bring a few copper coins." The stall owner handed back the silver in his hand and said.

But at this moment, the money in the boss's hand was snatched away.I saw that person with a sulky look on his face.Holding the five taels of silver in his hand, he said arrogantly, "You haven't paid this month's protection fee, so this ingot will count as your one-year protection fee."

After the man finished speaking, he turned around and was about to leave, but this time the stall owner quit and rushed forward.Hugging the big man's leg, he begged for mercy, "Second Master, please be merciful. This ingot is not mine, but this young master's. You must not take it away."

"Young bastard, talk nonsense with the second master. It doesn't matter who owns the money today. I will take it away from the second master. Does anyone have an opinion?" The person who claimed to be the second master kicked the stall owner away, and then arrogantly asked the crowd.

When Li Tai saw the crowd, he was so frightened by the second master's words that he lowered his head.It can be seen from this that this second master has definitely been bullying and dominating the market in Chang'an City for a long time.The common people have already developed extreme fear of him.

But Luo Tong didn't care about this, he stepped forward and shouted at the person who claimed to be the second master: "You dare to snatch the money from the young master, but you can put the money down today and pay it back. Otherwise, if the young master beats you today, let me let you go!" Your mother doesn't even recognize you."

Hearing Luo Tong's words, the person who called himself the second master not only was not afraid, but laughed out loud.The few people who followed him also roared with laughter.After all, in their eyes, Luo Tong was just a brat, so saying such a thing naturally made them feel ridiculous.

"Second Lord, I won't pay you back today. What can you do to Second Master? Even if your parents come, I won't pay you back. What can you do to me?" said Second Master arrogantly.

When Luo Tong heard this, he couldn't help being furious.From the front, I will fight with this second master.But at this moment, someone grabbed Luo Tong and said to Luo Tong: "This little brother, hurry home and call your lord, he relies on his family to work in Wang Yushi's mansion..."

It turned out that this self-proclaimed second master was called Wang Er, and he was somewhat distantly related to the Wang family in Taiyuan.His elder brother was the housekeeper in Wang Yushi's mansion, so he relied on his elder brother to do his best in this area, taking the stall owner's goods by force.

At the beginning, everyone also reported to the government, but within a few days, he came out by virtue of his brother's relationship.And they will take revenge on those who reported to the officials.Just like this, no one dared to provoke him.

As soon as Luo Tong heard this, his anger became even bigger, and he broke free from that kind man.Then he came to Wang Er and didn't talk nonsense with him.He kicked Wang Er down with one kick.Then the others except Li Tai rushed up and beat them up.

Although Luo Tong and the others are children, their martial arts are not ordinary.The beaten Wang Er and the others ran away with their heads in their arms.Finally, he obediently handed over the silver.Just when Luo Tong was about to let Wang Er go.Li Tai said to Luo Tong: "Brother, don't let him leave."

Hearing Li Tai's words, Luo Tong carried Wang Er to Li Tai and made him kneel on the ground.Waiting for Li Tai's disposal.

"I heard that your elder brother is a housekeeper in Wang Yushi's residence. That's why you are so arrogant." Li Tai said to Wang Er with a smile.

Seeing Li Tai's expression, Wang Er regained his courage.Arrogantly said to Li Tai: "Knowing that I am from the Wang family in Taiyuan, you dare to beat me. Let me tell you, someone has reported back just now. My brother will bring someone here soon, and then we will see how you die."

Hearing Wang Er's arrogant words, Luo Tong wanted to strike again.But it was stopped by Li Tai.This made Wang Er's arrogance even higher.Even let out the words, if you don't take out 100 taels of silver.Send their parents to jail.

As soon as these words came out, Li Tai couldn't help laughing.Put his parents in prison, probably no one would dare to do that.Several other little princes also roared with laughter.

At this time, a group of people came from the end of the street, at least ten or twenty.One by one, they walked over with a raised eyebrow.It was none other than Wang Er's elder brother Wang Tan.When he came in front of Li Tai and the others, he couldn't help being furious when he saw his younger brother being pinned down and kneeling on the ground.

This Wang Tan is not Wang Er, otherwise he would not be the steward of Wang Yushi's mansion.I already asked what happened on the way here.When he heard that a ten-year-old child took out five taels of silver.I felt that something was wrong. After all, it is impossible for children from ordinary families to have so much money.

So when Wang Tan came to Li Tai, he didn't arrogantly ask Li Tai to let him go.Instead, he said politely to Li Tai: "I don't know what to call this little brother, and which family he is from."

Just as Cheng Tieniu was about to speak, Li Tai stopped him.Then Li Tai said to Wang Tan: "I belong to the Huang family, and your brother scared me today. How do you say this account should be settled. Otherwise, just accompany me with 800 taels of silver, and forget about it."

Hearing Li Tai's words, Wang Tan's nose crooked out of breath.Also accompany a thousand 800 taels, you treat silver as a stone.So Wang Tan said angrily to Li Tai: "Children, you should pay attention to what you say, so as not to cause trouble for your parents."

The reason why Wang Tan would say this is that there is no big person surnamed Huang in Chang'an.So he thinks that Li Tai is the biggest at best, that is, a rich man's child.Of course, he got the conclusion by confusing the characters Huang and Huang.

"If you say a few good words, today's matter will be over. But you actually threatened me with my parents. Then today's matter, you can't let it go like this. If you don't give me 1000 taels of silver, you will compensate me I will definitely make you regret meeting me." Li Tai said domineeringly.
