"Pure heart is the cure, and straight is the body." Xiugan eventually became a building, and steel was not hooked. The hamster is happy, and the grass is full of rabbits and foxes. There are testaments in the annals of history, and there is no shame in those who come here. ——Bao Zheng," Shuduan ZhouJun Zhaibi
When it comes to the famous Qing officials of the Chinese Song Dynasty, many people will think of Bao Zheng. At that time, Bao Zheng was one of the most important officials in the court of the Song Dynasty, and his annual salary was 18,000 yuan, so do you know how much yuan this money is equivalent to now?

Bao Zheng was promoted to the rank of Emperor Renzong of Song in the 5th year of Tiansheng, and was subsequently awarded the Title of Dali Commentator and assigned to Jianchang County as Zhi County. However, because there was an elderly pair of parents in the family who were not taken care of, Bao Zheng very sincerely handed over the letter to the emperor, hoping to be able to work as an errand near Hefei.
At that time, the emperor had already agreed to Bao Zheng's transfer, but Bao Zheng's parents did not want Bao Zheng to leave the house, so Bao Zheng simply resigned from his official position.
Until the death of his parents and the expiration of the mourning period, he did not leave the tomb of his parents. After 10 years, Bao Zheng finally officially went to Beijing to listen to the election, and finally went to Tianchang to become a Zhi County. Ouyang Xiu once commented on Bao Zheng, saying:
Honest and strong, straight and straight, but rarely learned, the court affairs or have no thoughts... There are few filial pieties, smelled in the townships, and in the evening there are straight festivals, written in the imperial court. And he is also recognized by posterity as a "model of incorruptibility".

Bao Zheng's career was relatively smooth, and he held many official positions in his life. It is reported that he served as a judge of Zhixian County, Supervision Yushi, SansiHubu, Jingdong and Shaanxi and Hebei Road Transfer Envoys, Deputy Envoys of SansiHubu, and Deputy Envoys of the Privy Council. During his tenure, Bao Zheng never looked at other people's faces and directly impeached the magnates several times.
This person really did a good job of serving the officials and the people, there were almost no unjust cases in his hands, and the people loved Bao Zheng very much, and affectionately called him "Bao Qingtian". After Bao Zheng's death, he was posthumously awarded the title of Rebbe Shangshu by the imperial court. Although Bao Zheng joined the army several years late, his political achievements were far superior to those of other officials.

According to the "Records of the Officials of the Song Dynasty", after Bao Zheng's official position became larger, his Feng Lu also improved a lot. Every month, you can get 30 stones of grain, including 15 stones of rice and wheat; 260 catties of firewood and 520 catties of hay; you can also receive 225 kg of charcoal in winter; and you can get 1500 yuan of "minister money" and 100 yuan of "additional money" every month. That is to say, Bao Zheng's one-year feng lu is about 18,000 guan.
Since the monetary system of the Song Dynasty was relatively complex and varied, we will measure Bao Zheng's Feng Lu by the content recorded in the "History of Food and Goods of the Song Dynasty" to see how much money it is equivalent to today.
Because there was a rule of "30 yuan per bucket (meter) discounted" at that time, plus 2,000 yuan during the Song Dynasty was consistent, that is, 1 two silver. You can count 1 tael of silver to buy 4-6 stones of rice.
In the Song Dynasty, 1 stone was equivalent to about 66 kilograms, which meant that 1 pair of silver at that time was equivalent to 800-1800 yuan now. Bao Zheng's monthly Feng Lu is 1500 yuan, that is, 1500 silver, and then take the median value of 1300 yuan equivalent to the renminbi to calculate, we can get that Bao Zheng's monthly Feng Lu is about 1.95 million yuan, and his annual Feng Lu is 23.4 million yuan, which is really a "shock".

Of course, this algorithm is relatively ideal, and it is impossible to calculate the real Qilu of Bao Zheng very accurately. In addition, Bao Zheng still needs to supplement a certain amount of money when managing the government, which makes Bao Zheng's actual hand not count so much.
