Chapter 9 The people who pass through are comparable to ghosts
It is impossible to rely on the landlord's consciousness. If you give enough benefits, it is impossible because there is not so much money.
It turns out that the gentle method is too naive and too bookish.
Then, if you change the policy and give some benefits, you will be tough if you don’t work.
If the rich can follow the trend, they will get a share of the future tide of industrial and commercial development. After all, capital is concentrated in their hands; if they hold the old calendar, there is no way, and the mantis arm will stop the car, and there will never be a good end.
On one hand, there are the general public, on the other hand, there are a few rich people, and it also concerns the country. This multiple-choice question is not difficult to do.
There are too few counties like Guangning that have not experienced war. Thinking about this, it should not be difficult.
"Then let Guangning set an example for the world." Zhu Youlang thought of this and finally put an end to his chaotic thoughts.
...
Gu Yanwu took people to the county yard. Bi Kexing, Jiang Ziqiao, the yamen runners, and Gan Shu and the inn guy were also taken away by him. Chen Jitai also took people to the county yard to arrange for customs defense, and the inn was cleaned up all of a sudden.
An hour later, Chen Jitai came back and asked Zhu Youlang to move to the county government office.
Zhu Youlang came to the county government office and saw that there were crowds of people outside the county government office, crowded with people watching the fun. The main hall came and went, and the guards came and went in and out, and from time to time, escorting one or two criminals in and out.
Zhu Youlang did not want to interrupt Gu Yanwu's case trial, so he quietly went into the back yamen to rest.
The Houya was originally the residence of Bi Kexing's family, but now there is no one except the guards, but there is no shortage of furniture and utensils.
"Your Majesty, Bi Kexing's house is really luxurious. Look at the ornaments and calligraphy and paintings in the study, all of which are rare treasures. I have been operating for several generations and are considered a major household in Guangzhou. In terms of luxury, I am beyond my reach." Chen Jitai sighed while looking at the decorations in the house.
Zhu Youlang understood what he meant and said, "It's just a folk paste. His salary is probably not even affordable for this set of Huanghuali furniture. Bo Zhongyong, how did your family's land be handled?"
Chen Jitai was shocked. Why did the topic turn to his own place? He quickly bowed and replied: "Reply to the emperor, I originally had five places in the village, and there were no land I had offered, all of them bought by my ancestors. After the implementation of Your Majesty's new policy, I returned all the villages to the government, leaving only one village."
"Why leave one?"
"This farm is my family's son and slaves, so I distributed the land on this farm. However, the tax is a lot of food per pound or one ounce."
"Slave?" Zhu Youlang understood as soon as he heard this. Which big family has no slaves? These slaves must live, right? Chen Jitai's approach is also good. Population trading, the product of the old system, intuitively reflects the hierarchy between people in this era. If these slaves are allowed to restore their freedom and completely liberate their productivity, it would be another big move.
Now that the new land policy has not been implemented, this idea should be postponed. If you can’t be anxious, it will change.
"I have never seen Ji Cai. I heard that he was the one who managed your shop, right?" Zhu Youlang asked.
"Yes, the genius is not good at martial arts, but he is a little clever, very interested in counting numbers, and he also calculates the accounts clearly. Your Majesty, my business is paid in full tax according to the rules." When Chen Jitai heard the emperor ask about his third son Ji Cai, he didn't know whether the emperor wanted to support his third son or suspected that his family's business was evasable. Therefore, after boasting about his son, he added another sentence.
"Okay, I know." Zhu Youlang understood his little thoughts, and did not say in depth, but just replied lightly.
After a while, Gu Yanwu came to report the case.
"Your Majesty, Sun Huaguo's case has been cleared. As the emperor expected, this is indeed a frame-up case." The admiration on Gu Yanwu's face is obvious at a glance.
It turned out that after the Sun family made measures to cater to the emperor's new land policy, it aroused strong dissatisfaction among the three families of Chen, Jiang and Wen. The three families designed and colluded with the county magistrate Bi Kexing to set up the Sun family as tax-resistant elements and put Sun Sheng in prison.
The head of the Chen family is Chen Zhengtai, the head of the Jiang family is Jiang Chunlin, and the head of the Wen family is Wen Duojin. The three families are all wealthy and do not take the Sun family's property seriously. The reason why they arrested Sun Sheng and did not arrest Sun Huaguo was because they knew that the Sun family was Sun Sheng's head and he was Sun Huaguo's only son. As long as he was arrested, Sun Huaguo felt sorry for his son and would change his mind and wear a pair of pants with them.
Unfortunately, their plan failed. Sun Sheng was very proud. Not only did he not bow his head, but he scolded the lobbyist, saying that he would not be in the same circle as them even if he died.
Sun Sheng had a reputation as a Juren, so he was not punished. Although he was in prison, he did not suffer any flesh and blood.
The three families had no choice but to force Sun Huaguo. Sure enough, Sun Huaguo sold all his property, leaving only the "Sun Family Inn" industry. The sales income was buried in Bi Kexing's bottomless pit, except for paying a fine. Bi Kexing accepted the gift, but did not release Sun Sheng, but only let the father and son meet, but did not convince his son.
Seeing that Sun Huaguo failed, the three families came up with another vicious plan - to use Sun Huaguo to force Sun Sheng to submit.
Their vicious plan is very simple, which is to make Sun Huaguo suffer a murder. If Sun Sheng insists on it to the end, then his father will be asked to be a death sentence. Will Sun Sheng dare to ignore his father's life? Do you have the will to be an unfilial son?
The answer is self-evident.
So, they carefully designed the Sun Huaguo murder case.
The Chen family spent a lot of money to hire a foreigner and bribed the Sun Family Inn's clerk. This foreigner was Gan Shu. More than ten days ago, Gan Shu lived in the Sun Family Inn and, with the help of his friend, moved into the room above Sun Huaguo's house. While Sun Huaguo was not at home, he sawed off a piece of the floor and uncovered the floor, forming a hole. Under the hole was Sun Huaguo's couch.
Ganshu covered this floor and made a disguise.
The day before yesterday, Chen Laoshuan, the tenant of the Chen family, went to the Chen family to argue, and was beaten by Chen Zhendong, the eldest son of the Chen family, and kicked out. Seeing that this was a good opportunity, Chen Zhengtai ordered Gan Shu to quietly beat Chen Laoshuan to death halfway and then moved into the Sun Family Inn.
After nightfall, Chen Zhengtai ordered people to use a boat to transport Chen Laoshuan's body to the stack. Gan Shu lifted the body to the room with a rope, and then quietly lifted the floor and pulled the body to Sun Huaguo's bed...
Chen Zhengtai and the others thought that this design was extremely clever and seamless, without knowing it, would inevitably lead Sun Huaguo to death.
But man's calculations are not as good as God's calculations. How could they have thought that on this day, someone who is more virtuous than a ghost was moved into the Sun's inn?
