Chapter 235
Huang Taiji and Geng Zhongming were still gratifying, and after Fan Wencheng received a hundred yuan Daming coins, he asked the soldiers on the side: "How many silver taels do you need to exchange for this hundred yuan Daming coins?" "
"One or two silver!"
In an instant, Geng Zhongming and Shang were happy, Fan Wencheng, and Huang Taiji were all messy.
What can this two pieces of silver do?
However, since they were experiencing the life of the Daming Jingshi for three days, in order not to leave regrets, they walked into a restaurant.
Xiao Er immediately came over with a menu.
Looking at the menu, Huang Taiji had a black line on his face.
"Isn't it? Is this meal so cheap? "
Geng Zhongming and Shang Ke Xi were also stunned, this braised pork is only one yuan a piece, and Dongpo's elbow is only one yuan a piece.
Rice is five cents per person, and the rice is not limited.
"This, this, this is too cheap!"
"One or two silver, in our Dalqing can't even buy half a stone of brown rice, Daming's price is too cheap "five one zero"! "
"These vegetarian dishes are actually five cents, and this liquor is only one yuan per pound."
Huang Taiji and his group were very envious of the life of the Daming Empire.
I already knew that the Daming Empire was so good, and I surrendered to Daming with the Qing, and I had so many silver taels, I could live well in Daming.
Huang Taiji thought so in his heart, and the monk Geng Zhongming on the side looked at the food served and couldn't believe it.
"Isn't it! This liquor is actually better than tribute wine! "
"This is evenly distributed, we are less than five yuan each, how can we eat so many meals?" , Fan Wencheng couldn't believe his eyes.
Xiao Er on the side smiled and said: "The people of the Daming Empire pay thirty a day, and they also have food!" "
"When there is no work to do, everyone cooks and eats at home, five cents a pound of rice, and only one yuan a pound of pork! So your meal is twenty yuan, which is very good! "
Xiao Er's words made Huang Taiji even more shocked.
"How much does it cost ordinary people to go to the restaurant?"
"Five cents for rice, one yuan for a meat dish, five cents for a vegetarian dish, that's two yuan!"
"Some people who drink, just two or two cents of wine, two cents, a stack of peanuts and rice for two cents!"
"So the next time we have a restaurant here, we spend five yuan Daming coins, even if it is powerful!"
Shang Kexi was already shocked beyond words, the wealth of this Daming Empire was simply unbelievable.
"Is this liquor also sold by the Daming Royal Grain Shop?"
"Yes, white wine is eight cents a pound, and our small restaurant earns two cents a pound!"
Xiao Er explained while serving.
"These other countries, Daming pariahs, they can even go to the restaurant?" , Shang Ke asked curiously.
"The aborigines before the Daming Empire were all Daming citizens, and their wages were twice that of the Daming untouchables, who were not allowed to become officials, engage in business, or receive compulsory education!"
"Of course, you can't get all kinds of rights as citizens of the Daming Empire, such as pensions!"
Xiao Er's words made Huang Taiji stunned.
"The Daming Imperial Court still gives pensions to the people?"
"Yes, the Daming Imperial Court will issue a pension subsidy of two hundred yuan per month to the elderly over sixty years old!"
"What? Two hundred yuan is enough to buy four hundred catties of rice! Our Eight Banner soldiers in the Great Qing Dynasty can't buy so much grain for a month's salary! "
Xiao Er on the side asked curiously: "Then you Jiannu, how much money does an eight-flag soldier have?" Why is the monthly salary not comparable to the pension subsidy of our Daming people? "
"The pro-army of Xu is only four taels of silver a month, the key is that the price of grain has remained high in recent years, reaching two taels of silver and one stone!"
"Give them twenty-four stone grain every year, and two stone grain a month!"
"In total, the personal soldiers are only two stone grain and four taels of silver a month, and these purchasing power add up, which is almost the same as the purchasing power of two hundred yuan Daming coins for the treatment of old people over sixty years old in the Daming Empire!"
"I know why so many people from other countries would rather be pariahs in the Daming Empire than ordinary people in their own countries!"
Xiao Er kept shaking his head: "This pro-soldier is only this treatment, I don't know the treatment of ordinary soldiers, I'm afraid it's only half of the pro-soldier!" "
Geng Zhongming on the side nodded: "Almost!" "
"But how is life for the untouchables in the Daming Empire?" , Shang Kexi asked a little unwillingly.
Xiao Er on the side pointed to a few tables of guests next to him.
"Those are untouchables, and the untouchables' untouchable identity cards are made of bamboo chips, which are hung directly around the neck first." (Read violent novels, just go to Feilu Fiction Network!) )
"Our Daming civil status number plates are all made of copper sheets and hang from the waist!"
"They only work four hours a day, which is much better than your personal soldiers!"
Xiao Er patiently explained, after all, these guys are the big fish they caught...
His Majesty sent them money to experience the life of a Jingshi for three days, and he must treat them well.
After all, this adds a lot of popularity to the small restaurant.
"So this untouchable not only lives well, but even much better than ordinary people before?"
"What's more, in the past, ordinary people could not receive compulsory education and old-age subsidies, and these benefits were all proposed by His Majesty when Chongzhen was ten years old."
"It is equivalent to the life of these untouchables in the Daming Empire that is more than ten times better than the life of ordinary people in Daming a few years ago!"
"Of course, the lives of ordinary people in Daming a few years ago have now become citizens of Daming, and their lives have improved by more than a hundred times!"
"See? Opposite the small restaurant is the Daming Jingshi East District Primary School! "
"The children of Daming citizens study in it, free of school and miscellaneous fees, and no fees!"
"One meal a day at noon!"
"In the past, all kinds of beggars, as long as they were the aborigines of the Daming Empire, all issued Daming citizen ID cards! The imperial court also let the beggars go to work and put them on the right track! "
"Look, the kids are out of school!"
"After school this afternoon, many children will come to buy food, so I went to entertain them first!"
Huang Taiji looked at Fan Wencheng, and then at Shang Kexi and Geng Zhongming.
"Guys, this, this Daming kung fu in one or two years, has developed to this point?"
Shang Kexi was shocked by the prosperity of the Jingshi in front of him and was speechless.
Geng Zhongming on the side sighed without stopping: "I already knew that Daming could develop so prosperous and powerful one day, and I would not surrender to Daqing with soldiers and horses to death!" "
Fan Wencheng was very heavy, he was a show talent, and he defected to Daqing after repeated attempts.
I don't know how Daming's show talent is treated right now?
"Xiao Er, I don't know how this show talent of the Daming Empire is treated?"
"Da Ming Xiucai? It seems that nine years of compulsory education, that is, after graduating from junior high school, and being admitted to high school, it is a show talent! "
"Our imperial court treats readers with preferential treatment!"
"Xiucai has a subsidy of two hundred yuan of Daming coins every month!"
Two hundred yuan Daming coin show talent subsidy?
At that time, he also had a subsidy of one or two silvers, so others said that he was a poor talent.
At that time, if he could have such treatment, he would not have gone to Liaodong and fled to the Great Qing.
Fan Wencheng felt a regret in his heart.
