Measured by Wu Dalang's cooking cakes. In the Water Margin, Wu Dalang's sesame seed cake is three pence each. Suppose that the ordinary baked wheat cakes on the street today are baked wheat cakes made in Wu Dalang, and the current price of baked wheat cakes is basically between two yuan and three yuan. For the convenience of calculation, it is calculated according to the three yuan of a biscuit, which means that an ancient penny is modern.
At this point, the problem is very simple. Traditionally, money is one thousand pence, so three thousand pence is three million pence, which is three million RMB.
But some people say that Wu Dalang's baked sesame seed cake is not a modern sesame seed cake, but steamed bread. If the buns are 50 cents each, then 3,000 yuan is 1 million buns, which is 500,000 RMB.
At that time, it was possible to spend 500 thousand to 3 million yuan to hunt down a prisoner. It seems that Lin Chong has committed many crimes, at least among prisoners of this level in modern times, he must be an international fugitive. But it's also true. Seeing that Lin Chong was scared to go to Liangshan, he knew that Lin Chong's crime was a capital crime and had to run away.
Actually, in ancient times? Three thousand? This word doesn't simply mean? 3000? This is a colloquial concept word, as people say? Right away? 、? What happened afterwards? 、? Two days? , people say? Will you be here soon? People say it may take two hours to arrive? Two days? It may take a week to arrive. This is not an accurate quantitative word, but an uncertain conceptual vocabulary. Soon? . That is to say, in the water margin, the government took it out? Three thousand penetration? Maybe it's just a vague one? A lot of money? .
This can also understand why Lin Chong met so many people along the way, and no one reported it to the official. Because the government is obviously fooling people.
