First, people in this town and the surrounding villages can't leave at will. This is totally different from the reason mentioned in the information that they can't leave because their ancestral graves are here. In other words, the people who refused to move lied to the gf-112 project. It's not that they don't want to move out, they can't.
Second, the people of Zhang Jia are the rulers of the town, and they have been handed down from generation to generation. Up to now, they have not known how many generations. In other words, since the establishment of the town, the people of Zhang Jia have taken the initiative and the right to speak. The so-called blessing of the gods may be a cover. In other words, the people of Zhang Jia are brainwashing the people in the town. It is very likely that zhangjiaren have mastered a channel to the outside world, but they keep it a secret and do not let others know.
Third, most of the products of the outside world here are from the outside. Because there are few things, the market is very tight. It's decades behind the outside. It may also be that the people of Zhang Jia can't buy a car to bring it in, or they can't afford it at all. It can be guessed that the access to the outside world is very narrow and difficult to pass.
Fourth, people here are actually yearning for the outside world. As long as they are given a perfect excuse and opportunity, they will agree to move.
Mi Xiaoying watched the third young master of Zhang Jia riding his bicycle and left. Then she called Yin Yinuo and Jing Shaohuai and said, "come on, assign the task. Shaohuai, go and find out the taboos here, such as why you can't leave here. Yinuo, go and find out what it's like for Zhang Jia to get the blessing from the gods? Who is the blessing? What is the content of blessing? I'm going to inquire about the price level here and speculate on the economic strength of Zhang Jia. "
"Good." Yin Yinuo and Jing Shaohuai immediately nod, and the three act separately.
Mi Xiaoying is glad that she came with a lot of money.
I thought that in modern society, after we are used to electronic payment, there is no chance to use banknotes.
I didn't expect it to be of great use here.
Once again, I'm glad I have the habit of hoarding.
Mi Xiaoying walked along the road and found a shop with a signboard. She saw that it sold some simple items, such as oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar and needles.
Mi Xiaoying bought a roll of needle and thread and a bottle of vinegar at random. She looked at it and found that it was produced by an unknown small factory. The label on the outside had been torn off, but the plastic used to hold the vinegar was a proper modern process.
It must have been bought by Zhang Jia from a small store outside, right?
"Boss, let me ask you something. Where are the grain and vegetable shops here? " Mi Xiaoying is very aware of the current affairs and hands over a handful of melon seeds, a nagging look.
"It's on the next street." When the boss saw that MI Xiaoying was so polite, he was very happy and said, "do you want to buy food? How much? "
"Boss, do you have it here?" Mi Xiaoying got the point.
"Yes, but I sell less." The boss took out a bag and said, "this is coarse grain, thirty cents a kilo. Fine grain fifty cents a Jin! You see, it's definitely the new grain of last year. "
Mi Xiaoying pretended to be shopping. After inquiring about the price one by one, she said she would consider it and left.
I found other grain stores and vegetable shops. After inquiring about the prices, I quickly converted them in my heart.
The main food crops here are wheat, corn, soybeans, millet, sorghum, sweet potato, and occasionally some coarse cereals such as mung beans and red beans. Vegetables are mainly cabbage and radish potatoes, rarely other varieties.
From the price point of view, the price of food and vegetables here is very low.
Mi Xiaoying has learned about the food price outside. The dried wheat has reached two yuan a Jin, and the corn has reached three yuan a Jin.
The price of wheat here is 50 cents a catty, and that of corn is 30 cents a catty.
If it can be poured out, the profit will be considerable!
Although there is no statistics on the amount of land here, the town can feed 5000 people, and although the people here are poor, their mental outlook is not bad, so the amount of land must not be small, otherwise, there is absolutely not enough food.
The iron here is more expensive, no matter how much it is, it's a piece of paper.
Basically, a hoe costs hundreds of yuan, but in the outside world, it costs only a dozen yuan.
In and out, it's all profit.
As a business boss, MI Xiaoying has been acutely aware of the problem.
If the conjecture is true, then Zhang Jia is really a bull!
So many years, should have saved a lot of money?
Thinking, Yin Yinuo and Jing Shaohuai come back.
"How's it going?" Mi Xiaoying asked.
"It's lucky that I'm the one, otherwise I may not be able to find out." Jing Shaohuai is full of wine, but his eyes are bright. He is obviously not drunk at all.
"I just found a local young man who didn't work in production and offered him a bottle of Erguotou, and he told me all about it." Jing Shaohuai was a little complacent and said, "this matter should be started from Chongzhen. Do you remember when the Qing army entered the pass? Before the Qing army entered the pass, in fact, the country was full of loopholes and the people were in dire straits. The name of this town is Liushen town. You can tell from this name that it is mainly a town managed by six surnames. At that time, six families, surnamed Li, Zhang, Wang, Liu, Chen and Zhao, fled here with their families. They were all from the same village. Because of the banditry, they survived the six families. ""After they came to this place, there was no banditry. They lived here temporarily for fear of being overthrown. Inadvertently found that the soil here is particularly fertile, especially good growth of crops planted. So they decided to build a village here. After a hundred years of reproduction, a village with only a few dozen people has suddenly developed into a large village with hundreds of people. " Jing Shaohuai said: "these surnames suddenly have conflicts, fighting for land. Later, some people said that they might as well separate their families from each other, so they separated and set up their own villages, such as Lijia village, Zhangjia village and Liujia village. Later, with more and more people, in order to facilitate communication, a town was built in the middle of the village, named Liushen town. "
and Sai Yin make complaints about the name.
, make complaints about the name of the town. Hey, hey, I wanted to make complaints about it at the beginning, but I knew what it was called after that. Jing Shaohuai said, "this is because, more than 300 years ago, some people were tired of life here and wanted to leave here to return to the outside world. As a result, they died on the side of the road before they went out. When they were found, they were already covered with white bones. At this time, some people don't believe in evil and want to go out. As a result, a few people die. So they thought that they were cursed by God, and their children and grandchildren could not go out of this place. So they prayed to the God of their surnames to protect their descendants. As a result, something magical happened. Someone in Zhangjia tried to go out, but he didn't die. He came back alive! So they think that this is the surname of each family, and God is protecting them. Because there are six surnames, it is named Liushen town! "
Yin Yinuo frowned: "how can it sound like a magic wand?"
Mi Xiaoying nodded with approval: "this technique is really artificial. But how did they make the people who went out die? "
Jing Shaohuai waved his hand and said, "it's not important. What's important is that people here really believe it! Then it was passed down from generation to generation. No one dares to leave this place except those who have been blessed by the gods. "
"How many people have been blessed so far?" Mi Xiaoying asked.
"Hei hei, Xiaoying is so smart that she thinks of the key all of a sudden." "So far, less than ten people in the village have been blessed," Jing said
"are these ten people from Zhangjia?" Mi Xiaoying asked.
"Sister Sakura guessed right again!" Jing Shaohuai said with a smile: "every generation of Zhangjia people will have a person who is blessed by the gods. He can freely enter and leave here and the outside world."
Yin Yinuo didn't know what to say: "isn't this an obvious fraud? The so-called God blessing of the Zhangjia people should be a gimmick they made themselves. They raised other people here like pigs, right
"I guess so, too." Jing Shaohuai said, "I want to see their temple, but that man will not let me go. He said people with different surnames can't go
Yin Yinuo said: "the news I got was similar to Shaohuai's. Every 20 years, a large-scale sacrificial activity is held here. One of the contents is to get the blessing of the gods. Those chosen by the gods will be sent to the temple. Those who get the blessing can go in and out smoothly. But the content of the blessing is obviously confidential. Those who do blessings are those who were blessed in the previous generation. To do enlightenment blessings for new people is to pass them on from generation to generation. "
Mi Xiaoying said, "over the years, it has been the people of Zhang Jia who have been blessed, and no one else has ever doubted the fishiness in it?"
"Who knows?" Yin Yinuo said: "now Zhangjia is the most powerful family in Liushen town. Zhangjia village has nothing to do with Zhangjia in the town. That is to say, five clothes have been issued for a long time. They are not directly related. Since three hundred years ago, Zhangjia in the town has been separated from Zhangjia village, and has become a branch of its own. Now Zhang has five sons and two daughters. Among them, the third son of Zhang Jia is free to go in and out. No one else. "
Mi Xiaoying nodded and said, "I just investigated the price level here and found an interesting phenomenon. The prices of things produced here are very low. The prices of things not produced but sold here are several times higher than those outside. Obviously, this is an industry chain of reselling and buying. Buy the crops here at a low price and sell them out at a high price. Then buy the goods from outside at a low price and sell them at a high price. The profit is very considerable. Presumably, that's why the currency here is RMB. Because only a unified currency can facilitate external transactions. "
