Chapter 30 Prefectural Orders

Today's candidates exhaustively study the grave and ignore current affairs, so the Jinshi articles are also a lot of retreats, and the content of the implementation is actually very pitiful.

When the time comes, I will take out the skills of writing arguments for civil servants, and then translate them into ancient texts in combination with the actual quotation of scriptures, hehehe, this is called "Six Classics Note Me". In the eyes of the fair, I am still somewhat sure.

If you can't do it, you can also do a few inventions first, get a job, and then take the road of the system, which is a practical test, and it is your own strength.

Even if you can't get it, you still have great hope for both talent and wisdom in physical use.

However, the requirements for the usual accumulation of subjects are too high, and there is a lot more content in the exam.

After the strength in his heart was puffed up by Mrs. Cheng, Su You suddenly felt that the so-called science field didn't seem to be so afraid.

After figuring it out, I looked up and realized that it was getting late.

Mrs. Cheng didn't bother him, she just watched with a smile on the side, until Su You's soul returned to its place, and then sent him home to rest.

When he got up the next morning, Shi Dongxiu came to the door. Today he is going to take Su You to Yamen to make a deed.

The porcelain rooster is still a porcelain rooster, come over early, and prepare for a breakfast for the richest man in Cheng.

During the meal, Su You saw that Shi Dongxiu's eyes were dark, and he couldn't help but be a little concerned: "Shibo, didn't you rest well last night?" ”

Shi Dongxiu's face was full of excitement: "Virtuous nephew, I looked at the jade porcelain plate under the lamp last night, the plate was close to the light, and you could see a circle of light through the plate!" ”

Su You couldn't help but laugh to himself: "Don't look at jade under the lamp." Shibo, you shouldn't have watched the lights all night, did you? Are you willing to give up all that lamp oil? ”

Shi Dongxiu's face froze, as if he had just thought of this question, and waved his hand after thinking about it: "Today is a good day, I have seen it, it is advisable to trade, make money, and simply extravagant." ”

Cheng Wenying sneered: "That is, more than 100 guan money to buy the mountain land that is not long, and in a blink of an eye, it has become a 300 mu porcelain clay industry, with a price of 700 guan, and two broken kilns are folded to seventy percent of shares, this is a good deal, I am so happy that I can't sleep!" ”

Shi Dongxiu's face turned red, and he couldn't help but retort: "Your porcelain plate, as well as the porcelain seal, isn't it also taking advantage of the virtuous nephew?" ”

After speaking, he pointed to the five-color overprint Guanyin on the wall: "How much should this craft cost?" ”

Cheng Wenying said with a smile: "The heart of a villain is the belly of a gentleman, this year's official wine shop is bought, I am ready to give it to the virtuous nephew, and the output of the wine shop will belong to him in the future!" ”

Shi Dongxiu disagreed: "Just that winery, still expect to make money? Now I drink Qionglai wine from Yizhou......"

Seeing that the two old men were about to quarrel, Su You hurriedly interrupted: "There are many follow-up affairs in the magnetic kiln, and money must be used everywhere, and Shi Shibo accounts for seventy percent, which is due." ”

Shi Dongxiu was triumphant: "Did you hear it, the virtuous nephews all said so...... Wait, what's the cost for? ”

Su You said with a smile: "Take precautions, the naturally weathered Guanyin mud will soon run out of money." Porcelain stone needs to be mined, crushed, grinded, impurities, and aged before it can reach the standard of use. ”

Shi Dongxiu was shocked: "How much labor does that take?!" ”

Su You said strangely: "Why use a lot of labor? Is it bad to use machinery? ”

Shi Dongxiu said: "Virtuous nephew, if you want to turn fossils into mud, what machinery can do it?" ”

Su You said: "Of course, it is not completely able to replace labor, but Shibo can rest assured that there can always be a lot of substitution." We first use ready-made clay to make porcelain, in order to facilitate the operation, do what we can, and never let Shibo lose money. ”

Only then did Shi Dongxiu put his heart back in his stomach: "That's it." ”

After eating, Cheng Wenying was not worried about Su You, so the three of them went to the county government together.

The Song Dynasty was a quasi-commercial society, as evidenced by the establishment of contracts.

First of all, the contract is a uniform official form, printed and controlled by the government, and stamped with the official seal to show the effect of authority.

The deed should also specify the deed-maker, the subject matter, the value, the location, the land grade, the boundary, the origin, the reason for the deed, the tax, the neighbor, the transaction amount, the guarantor, and the liability for breach of the contract...... All kinds of meticulousness.

Before signing the deed, you must first buy a fixed sticker, similar to the official application form with a draft, fill it out, submit it to the county government for review for three days, pass the review, and then buy a copy of the official contract.

A total of four copies need to be purchased, and after filling out, two copies of the contract are held by the deed maker, and the remaining one is filed in the county government and one is filed in the commercial tax office.

This is a compulsory measure, if the deed does not use the official deed, does not follow the format, and does not enter the file, but commits a crime, it will be regarded as having no legal effect.

In order to prevent the county officials from printing more contracts and embezzling deed taxes, the printing rights of the deeds were also returned to the state government, and the batch number of 1,000 characters was used as the batch number, which was printed in batches on a monthly basis, and issued according to the budget of the county contract, which was no less stringent than the VAT invoices of later generations.

Similarly, the use of white deeds by the people is an attempt to evade taxes, which is an illegal and criminal act, and denunciations and punishments are encouraged.

The presence of the two heads of the family alarmed the county lord.

Zhixian surnamed Song, only admitted to Jinshi in his forties, grinding for ten years when Meishan Zhixian, has long lost his enterprising heart, but likes to be quiet, plus Meishan is a county attached to the county, happy and relaxed, in a semi-retired state.

Cheng Wenying's official identity is Dali Temple, Zheng Wupin, although it is an honorary title, but it is much higher than Song Zhixian's Congqipin, and local affairs are actually mostly taken care of by the Jiang Qing family, so the county order has special respect for Cheng Wenying, and when he saw it, he handed it over: "Oh, two old sages, how dare you work Your second elder is here, there is something to post, and Lao Song came to the house to listen to the teachings." ”

After speaking, he said: "The Cheng Shi family opened a charity shed at the wharf, helping the orphans and the poor and the porters and boatmen who came and went, which is really kind-hearted. As soon as the matter spread, the state capital and county were all greatly glorious. ”

Cheng Wenying smiled and said: "This matter, it was the kid behind me who initiated it, Su You, who came to see Song Shibo." ”

Su You obediently came up to greet him, and he was polite again.

After finishing the miscellaneous words, Shi Dongxiu said business.

These two people came forward, then it was a special matter, a few people sat in the back hall of the official office to talk and laugh, the tax supervisor and the county Cheng ran several times, and the porcelain workshop was properly handled.

Then Cheng Wenying inquired about the purchase of the official wine shop.

Song Zhixian arched his hand and said: "The matter of the winery can't be hidden from the two of them, and the cost of this year's work is five hundred." I'm having a headache with this. ”

Cheng Wenying said: "Five hundred yuan a year, according to common sense, this winery should make a lot of money." ”

Song Zhixian smiled bitterly: "Lao Xianda is very right, according to common sense, it is true, but sometimes things, it is not according to common sense......"

The county Cheng helped on the side: "Speaking of common sense and special cases, this Sichuan Gorge tax rheology is actually an example. ”

"At the beginning of the army's entry into Shu, they invaded and atrocious, and used officials to abuse them, so that they rebelled endlessly. Therefore, there was a mutiny of Wang Xiaobo and Li Shun in the past, and a mutiny in the later part of Liu Yang and Wang Jun. ”

"Until Lu Yuqing went out to guard Chengdu, Taizu said: 'Shu people will not forget Mengchang. In Chengdu, all things that are taxed and eaten and drunk should be stopped. Yu Qing was edicted to get rid of it, and the Shu people were happy. ”

"Because of Taizu's edict, Shu has settled down since then. When the Great Song Dynasty implemented the liquor law everywhere, I was alone. Therefore, there is a saying that 'Xishu does not drink wine, and Hebei does not drink salt'. It's not just wine, salt, tea, and that's it. ”

Cheng Wenying also sighed: "In fact, Shao Yu Gong saw it very clearly: 'The Jiawu Rebellion is not the crime of Shu, nor the crime of the year, but the crime of official and political deception, and the crime of economic corruption. If the edict is not issued, Wang Ze will not flow, so the three thieves will take advantage of each other and mess with each other, and the traitorous ministers will also be guilty. It's heart-wrenching. ”

Zhixian also sighed: "Because of this, at the beginning of the founding of the country, the Shu people were 'easy to read. 'Incompatible with the imperial court, Shao Yu Gong Shiyun: 'Those who are all over Luo Qi are not silkworm breeders. 'When there is a thorn. This heart is not in one place. ”

Cheng Wenying smiled: "Hasn't it eased up in recent years? The two of my family are not talented, and they are not out of the science field, and they are in charge of the government. ”

Song Zhixian arched his hand and said: "Cheng Gong's family learns articles, and the lower officials admire it." ”

After speaking, he said with a bitter face: "Speaking of the cupbearer, my Meizhou is the hub of the waterway in Shu, and the hometown of businessmen from all over the world. Alas, it's good not to be specialized, but after being specialized, the local winery is squeezed by the wine transferred by Jiayi, and it is difficult to move an inch. ”

Cheng Wenying asked: "Why is this?" Since it is implemented exclusively, then alcohol from other states cannot enter the country? ”

Song Zhixian said: "That's the case, Keyi, Mei, Jiasanzhou, up and down the water, Meizhou is only one hundred and sixty miles away from the two ends, and it is a day and a night away from the smooth wind." ”

"The quality of people's wine is good, and it used to be a familiar relationship. After the specialization, the upstream and downstream Taishou turned a blind eye to the departure of the wine under their jurisdiction, and it was difficult for me to Meizhou in the middle of the stream. ”

"I have complained to the Transit Division several times, but there has been no news. People came over through the official ship, and the quality is higher than that of Taishou, what can I do with them in a county order? It seems that it is the end of the year, and the main cost of the winery is still a big difference, alas......"
