One Piece of Song Dynasty

Opening a restaurant is the top priority right now. My sister and I went back home after watching it. .shung Before the housekeeper comes to hear the news, I have to prepare to start exercising. The body is capital, and there were no antibiotics in ancient times. It is very important to have a healthy body in an era when colds can kill people. The current body is thin and short, and the height is He was only about 5 feet tall, and after a serious illness, he had no flesh left on his body.

I plan to run around the village every morning, and then do some exercise before having breakfast. The village is about two kilometers a week, and a quarter of an hour of jogging is enough. In addition, if I practice running more, I will be able to run faster if I encounter danger. , I can still run if I can't beat you. Thirty-six Strategies: Walk first and stay alive is the most important thing. Only when you are alive can you do things. You must eat well every day and grow taller.

I went home to rest for a day, and started exercising in a planned way early the next morning. As a result, I was watched by my sister and servants when I did this on the first day. My sister came to me curiously and asked me

"Brother, what are you doing?"

"Brother is working hard to strengthen his ability to resist disease."

"Oh, I look very tired, then you can continue." After saying that, my sister was about to leave.

"Wait a minute, sister, why don't you bring your servants to practice with me? From now on, everyone in our family, except the elderly, will have to practice. Once you are healthy, you will be less likely to get sick, and you can save a lot of money."

"Okay." My sister curled her lips.

"I will take the men to practice together, and you can take the women to practice. Since the physical condition of women is not as good as that of men, they can practice less. After practice, let the cook cook more food. We must form a rule in the future. Wait for Uncle An I’ll tell him when he comes.”

"Seeing as you don't want to do it, forget it for today and start practicing with me starting tomorrow."

"Okay." My sister left happily.

After a period of time like this, a group of men and women jogged around Lijiazhuang every morning, attracting people's attention and becoming a scenic spot in Lijiazhuang.

Three days later in the afternoon, the housekeeper came to see me.

"Sir, I have bought all the things you asked for. I have also given you live pigs. I have found a place to open a restaurant when we come. The building is three stories high. Do you want to go and take a look first?"

"Okay, let's go take a look tomorrow. Build a pigsty next to our cowshed and put the pigs in it. As for the other things, put them in my empty room and lock them up first."

"Okay, Young Master's family knows about it."

"Uncle An, let me tell you a few more things. One is that dealing with the government will be left to you in the future. I am still young, and people may not pay much attention to me when they see me. The other is that in the future I I plan to take the servants to work hard every morning. When I am strong, I will get sick less often and save some money. Our family will have a lot of money to spend in the future, so we can save as much as we can, and we have a tenant. How many customers are there? I think their life is too hard. You might want to lower the rent a little, so that their life will be easier and they will work harder."

"Young Master is kind. I would like to thank you first for them. A certain family will take care of the other matters."

"Also, I have formulated some hygiene rules, which must be implemented at home. Take a bath once a week in winter and once every two days in summer. You must wash your face and brush your teeth every day, wash your hands before meals, do not drink raw water, and trim your hair once a month. Hair should be washed and changed frequently, and it should be kept clean. Everyone in the family should do this. Prepare a few more sets of clothes for the servants."

"Okay, Young Master's family knows about it."

"By the way, what happened to the slaves and orphans?"

"We have taken in 5 orphans, one girl and four boys, all younger than the lady; we have bought 3 slaves, one boy and two girls, all of them are family members of criminals." The slaves in the Song Dynasty were basically hired slaves, that is, they signed a contract , there is a period of time. After signing the contract, the two parties have not determined their personal freedom rights. If each other is not satisfied, the contract can be terminated. However, there are still some slaves who will be slaves for life, such as some family members of criminals or war prisoners, etc. .

"Well, what's going on with the martial artist and the down-and-out scholar?"

"We haven't found a martial artist yet, but the down-and-out scholar has hired one."

"Okay, once the orphans are settled, let the scholar come to enlighten the children."

"Well, a certain family knows about the young master. If there is nothing else, a certain family will leave first."

"Okay, it's time for me to rest."

The next day, after exercising and having breakfast in the morning, I followed the housekeeper to Nan'an County. This was the first time I entered the county town since I came to this era. The city wall of Da Song Dynasty was quite high. It was visually estimated that it was at least five meters high. After walking around the city, I found that the county town is not big. There are many shops on the street, selling everything. There are a lot of people and the sound of hawking everywhere. This shows that the commerce in the Song Dynasty was developed. The commerce in the Song Dynasty was the largest with the previous dynasty. The difference is that urban commerce in the Song Dynasty broke the restrictions on the location and time of business. Merchants could open shops anywhere. In terms of business hours, the hours could be extended to between 1 and 3 in the morning. It can be seen that the night markets of the Song Dynasty It is also very prosperous; it is also worth mentioning that new commercial districts - Caoshi and Zhenshi have gradually emerged around the city. Some of these grass markets and towns are managed very well, and may even gradually develop into independent small commercial cities. Therefore, gradually, a number of commercial metropolises with a population of more than 10 households appeared throughout the Song Dynasty.

The restaurant is located across a street from the county government office, and not far from the city gate. It is a three-story building with a small courtyard. The layout of the building is quite satisfactory, with a lobby on the first floor, private rooms on the second and third floors, and the price of 200 yuan is quite good. Yes, during the Song Dynasty, due to the population explosion, the urban population density increased, so that housing prices soared. According to legend, during the Huizong period of the Song Dynasty, an ordinary residence in Bianliang City cost 9400 guan, which is equivalent to today’s value. of about 750 million yuan. At that time, a young migrant worker could only earn 900 cash per month, which was less than his usual income. In other words, if this migrant worker wants to buy a house in Bianliang, he will have to live without food or drink for 800 years. Of course, such housing prices are not only unaffordable for ordinary people, but also for officials and even first-class prime ministers. According to records, the monthly salary of a prime minister during the Song Dynasty was about 300 guan, which was about 3600 yuan a year. He only had 20 guan, after deducting the usual food, clothing, housing, transportation and servant expenses, the remaining 240 guan would take him more than ten years to buy a house. The monthly salary of a county magistrate is about guan, which is only guan a year. If he wants to buy a house, he will have to live without food or drink for decades. It is said that the family of Su Che and Su Shi, whose father and son were officials in the court at that time, sold a lot of paintings and calligraphy to barely scrape together enough money to buy a house. Isn’t this very similar to later generations?
