"You can't say that. One thousand taels of silver is not a small amount. Not everyone is the same as your Yan Sheng Gong." The elder of the clan couldn't help but say strange words.

Although these tribes have some savings in their homes, there is already a lot of home businesses that can earn tens of thousands of taels of silver, including some fixed assets such as real estate, calligraphy and painting.

For real cash, not many people can afford to pay out 10,000 taels in the family.

The old man from the Kong clan looked at the clan who was talking strange words and said, "One thousand taels is the number I set. If you have any objections, you can come to me, but now each family must take out the money and hand it over to Yan Shenggong. I know that each family has deposited silver, but it is best to exchange them all for silver dollars issued by the tiger flag."

The tiger flag occupied the area and had long been using silver dollars.

Moreover, silver dollars are easy to carry, the key is that they are of clear value. Unlike silver, they have to be weighed. In addition, the tiger flag is located in the northwest, and several more important horse markets are occupied by the tiger flag.

If the merchants of the Ming Dynasty wanted to obtain the things from the north, they had to go through the tiger flag. Moreover, under the promotion of the tiger flag, some areas under the Ming Dynasty had begun to secretly use silver dollars.

After all, silver dollars are not paper money, they are truly valuable money. With the circulation between merchants, many people quickly came into contact with and adapted to silver dollars, which is a convenient currency.

"I don't have many silver dollars at home, so I'm afraid I can't get a thousand taels of silver dollars." The old clan frowned.

Although silver dollars are easy to use, many people only need to change part of it. The Tibetan silver at home is still made of gold, silver and other things.

"So too, I don't have so many silver dollars at home." Another clan old man next to him echoed.

With the two of them taking the lead, the other clan elders also said that they didn’t have much silver dollars in their family and could not get a thousand taels of silver dollars.

The old man from the second tribe of Kong frowned and said, "If you don't have enough silver dollars, use the silver to make up. No matter how you go, the amount of one thousand taels of silver cannot be reduced."

As soon as this was said, several clan elders muttered a few words, but no one opposed it in person.

"It doesn't matter if you uncles and uncles don't have enough silver dollars. I can find a way to replenish the silver of the same value," Yansheng Gong Kong Yinzhi looked at the clan elders present with a smile.

Originally, these clan elders were quite happy when they heard the previous words, but when they heard that they still wanted to get the money, their faces immediately drooped.

"Okay, that's it." The elders of the Kong clan did not give others the chance to object, and they made a final decision.

The power of the Kong clan elders was still there, and even if the other Kong clan elders were reluctant, they could only nod and respond.

The elders of the Kong clan did not keep these people for too long, and soon asked them to go home to prepare.

The Kong people in power did not have a good life in Qufu, so they naturally hoped that the sooner the troubles of Kong's, the better.

Yansheng Gong Kong Yinzhi also brought Kong Yinjing back to his mansion.

"Come on, bring some snacks."

When he returned home, Kong Yinzhi asked the servants to prepare snacks.

For ordinary people, dim sum may not be able to eat it all year round, but for Kong Yinzhi, the Yan Shenggong, he has prepared it for a long time at home and can eat it any time he wants.

Soon, the servant brought a few plates of different styles of snacks to the room.

"I know I haven't eaten, so I'll have some snacks first." Kong Yinzhi raised his hand and pointed to the snacks in the plate.

At the previous banquet, Kong Yinjing's status was too low and he was not qualified to serve the table. Because some words were inconvenient for servants to hear, Kong Yinjing could only serve him, so he had no chance to eat, and he was hungry until he came back.

Kong Yinjing was not polite, so he reached out and picked up a piece of dessert and stuffed it into his mouth and started to eat it in big mouthfuls.

After being busy for so long, I was really hungry.

"Eat slowly, don't choke, drink some tea." Kong Yinzhi pointed to the tea on the table.

Some desserts are so irritating that they need to be delivered with tea.

After eating several snacks in a row, Kong Yinjing felt a little more comfortable. Then he picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, and smoothed the food residue in his mouth.

"You have heard what the second uncle said at the banquet?" Kong Yinzhi asked when he saw that Kong Yinjing was not eating voraciously.

Kong Yinjing took the teacup beside his mouth and said, "I have heard of this Hong Hengjiu. He used to be an official in Shaanxi, but later there was no news about the attack on Shaanxi by the Tiger Flag. Unexpectedly, this person surrendered to the Tiger Flag."

In the past, he often dealt with people for Kong's family, so he knew a lot about some officials in the court, and even if he didn't know him, he had heard others mention it.

Sometimes, even if someone like him says it once or twice, he will remember it.

"Do you know this person?" Kong Yinzhi's eyes lit up.

Unexpectedly, someone around me knew this Hong Hengjiu.

Kong Yinjing shook his head and said, "I don't know him, I just heard someone mention it. If the elders of the second clan suddenly mentioned this person, I wouldn't have thought of this name."

"So that's it." Kong Yinzhi looked disappointed and said, "If you were asked to contact this person in Laizhou, would you be sure?"

Kong Yinjing thought for a while and said, "If you have some confidence in saying this, I dare not say it, but there are no officials in the court who are not fond of money. It is indeed a good idea for the two clans to use money to bribe each other."

"I missed me, Kong. I used to deal with officials in the court, and I had a few more benefits to accept Kong's family. Now I am a down-and-out phoenix, and if I want to maintain the last position of Kong's family, I have to use money to ask for help, alas!" Kong Yinzhi sighed.

Kong Yinjing didn't know how to comfort people, so he had to say: "The current dilemma is only temporary, and it will be better in the future. If the tiger flag wants to govern the world, scholars are always indispensable."

"I hope so!" Kong Yinzhi looked bitter.

The practice of the tiger-like flag in Qufu made him feel that the tiger-like flag attached great importance to the Kong family. Now he can only use the tiger-like flag to govern the world with the tiger-like flag, which requires scholars to comfort himself.

After all, if scholars use to govern the world, the Kong family cannot be avoided.

Kong Yinjing picked up a piece of snack in the plate, took a bite, and suddenly said, "I really want to help the clan elders who can't get the silver dollar exchange silver dollars?"

"Switch it, it's not a loss to put the silver dollar in your hand." Kong Yinzhi said in his mouth.

Kong Yinjing said: The silver dollar in the tiger flag is not pure silver, it is mixed with something, and it is more loss to exchange the same amount of silver for silver dollars."

"There is no way to lose. You think others can't see it, but silver dollars are indeed convenient, whether they are carried or used. More importantly, the tiger-shaped flag is not easy to mess with. There is no need to annoy the tiger-shaped flag because of this matter." Kong Yinzhi said.

Silver dollars are not made of pure silver, and smart people can quickly discover this.

But no matter how I discovered, I would still use silver dollars if I should use it. After all, the silver inside is also real. Unlike the treasure banknotes issued by the Ming Dynasty, it is a piece of paper, and it is a piece of white paper. It feels uncomfortable to wipe your butt.
