Chapter 2458 The budding rebellion(1/2)

 "All donated?"

Even though Zhen Mi nodded in confirmation, Xin Xianying still couldn't believe it and pointed at the various exquisite objects in the green gauze tent with a look of reluctance.

Zhen Mi's face was still calm, as if she was facing some dispensable utensils, "Yes, basically they will be donated... On the one hand, it saves troubles, and it is also for my damn clan brother."

...On the other hand, it’s the first step to enter the human body...』

Wang Shu was on the side, playing with a gold-painted fan in his hand, and said: "But getting out of this Zhiyin prison... is not a smooth road..."

Zhen Mi nodded slightly, was silent for a moment, and then sighed, "But after all, is she better than a merchant's daughter?"

Wang Ying seemed to want to say something, but her lips moved slightly, and in the end she said nothing. What she originally wanted to say was that being a woman from an official family was not easy, but she did not come from a wealthy family.

,if it weren’t for all the men in Wang Yun’s clan...

And similarly, the reason why Wang Ying is unwilling to return to Taiyuan and his own home is because his home is not as comfortable as Chang'an? For a man who had not had an accident with Wang Yun and several men died in succession, Wang Ying would have probably

It will remain unknown in Taiyuan, become a transaction within the family, be betrothed to someone, and then conclude a certain deal.

Under such circumstances, what qualifications does she have to advise Zhen Mi?

What's more, Wang Ying herself is not very good at communication and communication. Although she is studying hard, she has missed the best time of her youth and it is very difficult to learn now.

As for Xin Xianying, she somewhat understands it, but does she understand it completely? As a member of a noble family, she lacks in everything but experience and age. After all, at her current age, there are still many people in the future who will

There are many people who just want to eat, drink, have fun and express themselves. It is already rare to find people like Xin Xianying who can think about the world.

So besides Zhen Mi, the only one who can truly understand and understand the reason why Zhen Mi did what she did is Wang Shu.

Wang Shu himself also had ambitions...

Moreover, Wang Shu's original identity was once even more unpopular with big men than a businessman.

Wang Shu could understand Zhen Mi's thoughts, and to be honest, it was not easy to pick it up, and it was even more difficult to put it down. Therefore, Wang Shu didn't try to persuade her, and just said lightly: "You have to think about it..."

…This matter cannot be repented of just because you say it is regretful…”

Zhen Mi gave Wang Shu a look like a sister who understands me, and then sighed slightly, "If you give up... you may still have your life, but if you don't give up... you may even lose your life..."

Wang Shu didn't know what he thought of, and he sighed while accompanying Zhen Mi and stopped talking.

Xin Xianying clicked her tongue a few times. Apparently, she didn't really feel much about Zhen Mi's emotion. Instead, she felt sorry for the things that Zhen Mi was about to give up.

Wang Ying was silent for a long time, then raised her eyes and looked at Zhen Mi, "In what name do you plan to donate it?"

Zhen Mi smiled, like thousands of flowers blooming, "Isn't this the second young master's full moon?"

The other three people were either stunned or dumbfounded, and Wang Shu laughed and clapped his hands without thinking it was a big deal...

Zhen Mi still smiled lightly, but there was a bit more determination in her eyes.

This time, under the eyes of the public, I want to completely cut off the connection between the businessman attribute in myself and the Zhen family!

Why do you have to listen to other people's arrangements your whole life?

Merchants, for most of the Han Dynasty, played a less honorable role.

Then Zhen Mi is still a smaller part of the businessmen, businesswomen.

Fei Qian's preferential policies and relaxed attitude towards businessmen cannot change ordinary people's feelings and understanding of businessmen. The four words "no business without treachery" are a curse that will never go away from the hearts of businessmen, and sooner or later it will break out.

.

Because starting from the Han Dynasty, people in almost all social classes did not have much favorable impressions of businessmen. This situation is not just as simple as the suppression of the so-called "scholars, farmers, industry and commerce" in Confucianism, but has a deeper meaning.

factor……

Can someone who is praised to heaven every day be able to go to heaven?

It's like the slogan of "emphasis on agriculture" is shouted every day, but in the feudal dynasty, how much time was spent truly caring about and taking care of the hardworking people of Guangda?

Therefore, propaganda is on the one hand, and on the other hand, it is caused by the actions of the businessmen themselves. So in many cases, killing a "profiteer" is like killing a "corrupt official" and does not require any explanation.

There will also be a wave of applause. This relatively formed a semi-solidified thinking mode, which was defined by the businessmen themselves in the long history of history.

The merchants of the Han Dynasty originally grew up with the Han Dynasty. They are like a sapling. When it sprouts and breaks through the ground, no one can imagine that it will grow crooked.

At the beginning of the Han Dynasty, after the Qin Dynasty, the husbands joined the army, the old and the weak were transferred to food and salary, the weak productivity and the massive reduction of the population led to the extreme shortage of materials in the entire society. Even the emperor could not find four horses of the same color.

As a ceremonial vehicle, let alone ordinary people, it makes a lot of noise.

Under such a situation, businessmen became rich suddenly. Under the premise that many people in the Han Dynasty had a small-scale peasant economy, the people were poor, the treasury was empty, and technology was lacking, some businessmen in the Han Dynasty suddenly became very rich.

Oil flow.

However, many of these businessmen have forgotten one thing...

In order to develop the economy, the Han Dynasty opened up the mountains and rivers, implemented a certain degree of free trade policy, promoted the development of various manufacturing handicrafts including salt and iron, and exempted commercial taxes on the passes.

, giving merchants the right to purchase and use slaves.

So these businessmen used nearly free land, forestry, mining and other resources, coupled with almost free slave labor, to quickly accumulate a large amount of capital. When most people in the Han Dynasty were poor and distressed, they accumulated a lot of capital.

They have accumulated tens of millions of wealth and are known as "Three Thousand People". They have cattle, horses and other livestock with thousands of hooves, sheep and pigs with thousands of pairs, slaves with thousands of fingers, extravagant and absurd, fighting for wealth and other bizarre behaviors.

The human heart is like this. It doesn't matter if everyone is poor, they can still live in harmony. But once someone gets rich, it does not bring benefits to others, but brings worse effects. The psychological imbalance is secondary. For

The turbulent impact of social order is the most fatal problem!

Especially businessmen, although most people are smart and know how to restrain themselves, not show off their wealth, or show off their wealth, there is nothing they can do about those second-generation rich people who are crazy about their brains, and there is no way to avoid the inherent rat turds among businessmen.

After all, things like rat droppings are normally distributed with the population base and cannot be avoided at all...

Some businessmen make fortunes through large-scale speculation and hoarding, and use natural disasters to frequently cause price fluctuations to exploit ordinary people. They also regard this behavior as a "normal" business method, package it, advocate or even show off such behavior, and also

Publicly mocking those who are exploited are untouchables, idiots, and lazy people who deserve to be exploited and deserve to never be able to stand up again. They do not care at all whether such remarks and actions will bring any impact or hidden dangers to the development of society.

What’s interesting is that in the early days of the Han Dynasty, most of the merchants and nobles were untouchables in the mouth of the old nobles. They once hated such titles. However, after the merchants and nobles developed individually, they gave such titles to others.

.

Especially businessmen who suddenly become rich in the countryside, they really don't regard ordinary people as human beings, and think that everything can be settled with money...

Being able to make money is a very good ability, but being able to spend money is a more important talent, even a talent.

Of course, spending money here is not about random spending and squandering, but about knowing how to use money in the right place, such as Fei Qian. Those who don’t understand this are basically New Year pigs. When such people have no sense of social responsibility

Businessmen feel that they can use natural disasters, information asymmetry and unbalanced social development in Han society to cruelly exploit the grassroots people economically and turn a blind eye to the negative consequences. Under such circumstances, they will not kill

Should this kind of New Year pig be kept and killed next year?

But many merchants don't understand this. This is also a curse in the merchant's own bones. After all, from the beginning, the baht has to be accumulated bit by bit, so how can it be easily put down?

How can it be a sin to earn something based on one's own ability?

Deng Tong howled like this, Dong Xian also shouted like this, and then when Shi Chong came, nothing changed. Even in later generations, there were still people who screamed like this. Because these people could not figure out what it means to stand in the wind until their death.

The real reason why the pigs can fly is not the pigs, but the wind that blows in a specific place at a specific time.

In the face of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty's determination to fight against foreigners, these merchants still relied on their own money and ignored the wishes of the court and the people. They even joined forces with the rangers to recruit people from households, resist the court's orders, and promote themselves.

The land was granted to the country, so it was called "Su Feng" by Sima Qian.

If such a person does not deserve to die, who will?

In addition, in order to maintain their excess income, merchants would also bribe officials in addition to their commercial activities. After all, how could ordinary people have the spare money to bribe officials? So at that time, officials, officials, and county officials all rushed to buy extravagant houses.

There was no restraint in buying cars and luxury clothes and jewelry. In order to obtain the money from merchants, "officials resorted to tricks, carved seals and forged books, and those who did not avoid being executed by swords and saws would not be rich."

This behavior naturally attracted sanctions from the rulers.

But some businessmen failed to understand. They didn't know, or pretended not to know, that all business activities are based on the country and its citizens, even in the Age of Discovery, which went beyond the national territory.

A wide range of trade is also supported by the strength of its country. Otherwise, the sea coachman should have unified the world long ago, instead of the two big dies waiting for the sun to never set.

When these businessmen were sanctioned and faced death, it was the officials who accepted bribes who worked the hardest. After all, on the one hand, they could destroy the original evidence of bribery, and on the other hand, they could use their heads to make achievements, not to mention how happy they were.

So some businessmen learned the hard way, but they didn't think clearly about what they should do. Instead, they decided that they wanted to gain power, go against the country, and even sell the interests of the country as a bridge to another country. But there is that place

Will traitors be welcomed to gather together?

At the beginning, Zhen Mi couldn't figure it out, but as time went by, after silently observing some of Fei Qian's actions, especially this time after the Zhen family sent someone...

With my heart chilling, I could see more clearly.

Did Zhen Yao come to Chang'an to help Zhen Mi?

Obviously not.

What do businessmen focus on? Commodities? That is what ordinary businessmen do. For Zhen's current situation, it is more about connections.

When Zhen Mi brought the gold-painted fan business to Jizhou, although she had the original connections through the Zhen family, she also injected new energy into the Zhen family who had made a heavy bet on Yuan Shao and suffered a heavy blow.

vitality.

Later, things such as the Western Region Sachet operated by Zhen Mi completely disrupted the balance within the Zhen family.

The Zhen family also had properties in Jizhou, and there were quite a lot of them, covering a wide range of areas, covering almost all areas of people's livelihood and military affairs, so much so that Yuan Shao at that time had to throw away one of his sons in exchange for the Zhen family's support in logistics.

Full support.

Under such circumstances, how could Yuan Xi, who was arrogant and arrogant, have a good attitude towards Zhen Mi, who just came with gifts in business?

Well, that's right, Zhen Mi is not even Yuan Xi's wife, she is just a concubine.
