Shan Jidao seemed to be used to it, and said: "Yes, even if you are poor, in front of the government, you can be on an equal footing with the rich man." ”

Zhang Dai's flesh was about to tremble, and he said, "Isn't this messing up Gangchang." ”

Shan Jidao said: "What's the mess here, who has the reason to ask casually, don't you know, not to mention ......" Shan Jidao wanted to say and stopped.

But Zhang Dai was not convinced, but immediately calmed down a little, isn't this an old example.

In all dynasties, at the beginning, it seems that when Emperor Taizu was in power, he raised a butcher's knife every day to kill scholars, and the killings were numb, but what happened later? When it came to Renzong, the scholars praised it, as long as they were allowed to embezzle, they could be given a temple number of Renzong, and as for the end of the country, it was a later matter.

What Zhang Dai didn't expect was that he really encountered this kind of moment, and according to the elders, when he met such a tyrant, he could only wait patiently until the kind of emperor who knew people well and knew how to give benefits to scholars appeared, and then came out to become a leader.

Zhang Dai sighed for a while, at this time, the rulers of the imperial capital have no alien background, at most they are said to have the legend of immortals, which is not a thing under the tricks of pretending to be gods and ghosts in all dynasties, but the contradiction is a more profound contradiction.

Shan Jidao said eloquently: "In my imperial capital, it has always been like this, everyone is equal, even a hawker is not inferior to a nobleman, even if it is a suspect in custody, even if he is sentenced, but once there is any suspicion, he must be remanded for retrial, and he will never slack off." ”

Zhang Dai was interested, and for the sake of secrecy, he basically didn't say much about why the retrial was retried, but in a document, from the document issued by the committee, it was said that the criminal claimed to be drunk, what happened at that time, the circumstances of the case were unknown, and in line with the attitude that human life was at stake, the retrial was naturally transparent.

"So why the retrial?"

The facts of the case are already very clear, even the small knife that killed the murderer was the murderer's own, bought from the knife shop, and produced by the knife factory under the Tangshan Steel Mill, which can be said to be human and material evidence, and the legal theory believes that he is the murderer, and even his father can only beg his grandfather to sue his grandmother, praying for a light sentence.

Shan Jidao was silent, he knew that speaking should have his own scale, thought about it, and said: "It's hard to say, whether the elders know some information, but their idea must be that otherwise the emperor will have grievances." ”

"But now, everyone in the imperial capital is frightened, which is really unacceptable, and I ask Brother Shan Xian to tell a few more words in the newspaper, how difficult the people's livelihood is, it really can't withstand the destruction."

Shan Jidao smiled and said: "I think it's just the opposite, the people are very relieved, they all know that there are cases, and when it comes to the final instructions, the elders feel suspicious, so they remand for retrial, and naturally someone acts impartially." ”

Zhang Dai said: "Then aren't you afraid that someone will instigate in secret and disrespect the king's law." ”

Zhang Dai sincerely disagrees with the retrial of prisoners who are about to be executed, especially those who are not scholars.

In this case, wouldn't everyone follow suit? How can there be so much money for interrogation.

Confucianism pays attention to order, and has always hoped to establish a system that is not chaotic at all, and everyone quietly gives Confucianism benefits, and does not like any chaos, after all, people are the beneficiaries of order.

Shan Jidao said lightly: "How to incite it, the people of the imperial capital will naturally report and arrest people." ”

Zhang Dai said: "Those ignorant people. ”

"I'm sorry, but the literacy rate in the imperial capital is still very high, almost not everyone can read, but many people can read newspapers."

Zhang Daiqi said: "How is this possible. ”

"At the beginning, the elder spoke, the literacy class in the study class, learn the eight hundred words, you can get a bag of rice, but the result is full all of a sudden, and then it is slowly diverted, and slowly, a bag of rice can not satisfy them, there is another good test and another reward, now among the ten people in the imperial capital, at least three or five people are literate in the literacy class."

Zhang Dai said with great surprise: "Where did you get so much rice, the people are afraid that they will have to endure hardship." ”

He has a deep memory of how his family exploited tenants, but the wealth of his family is also very terrifying.

Before his father was an official, he took over in Jiaxiang County, Shandong, and the former county commander played the trick of one bottle cap and ten bottles, but he didn't hold it, seeing that the dead family was going to be affected, his father shot two thousand taels, one thousand taels made up for the shortfall, and one thousand taels funded the family of the former county official to return to his hometown, and was praised a lot for a while, but no one thought about it, where did this person get the money.

How rich is Zhang Dai's family?

His grandfather was the head of the Military Selection Department of the Ministry of War.

This position sounds simple, but it is not simple, there are more than 20,000 civil officials in the Ming Dynasty, but there are 100,000 military attachés! Most of these people's promotions and appointments have to go through the military selection and cleaning department, so although the position of the military selection department is not high, it is the fat shortage in the fat shortage, and among the directors at all levels of various departments in the capital, the "oil and water" that the director of the military selection and cleaning officials department can get is the most sufficient!

If it is said that in the Ming Dynasty, where corruption has long been programmed and the distribution of spoils has been institutionalized, Zhang Dai's grandfather is clean, and he has long been killed by people who can share the spoils.

And, the most interesting thing is that the reason why his grandfather dismissed the official for the first time that year was because he picked a failed paper in the Shandong Township Examination, which is equivalent to directly adding 300 points to the unsuccessful student in the college entrance examination to help him go to Peking University.

It's ridiculous that such a thing happened to an old bureaucrat, but after careful consideration, I really don't know the mystery, but when this person went home, he immediately set up a number of opera troupes full of beauties, what a beautiful and delicious class, Su Xiaoxiao's class, and Wu Jun's class.

Zhang Dai's money was barely spent.

But what he thought of was to act like this, luring the people of the imperial capital to become literate, and he didn't know how the scheming behind it was, but the population of the imperial capital was hundreds of thousands, and how many people were among them, I really don't know, and tens of thousands of hundreds of thousands of bags of rice were given out in vain, how those peasants were exploited.

"Mr. Su is joking, now everyone knows that the price of grain in the imperial capital has always been very cheap, in fact, someone has already sold the grain from Liaodong to the south of the Yangtze River."

"What!"

Zhang Dai felt incredible, he himself didn't produce, and he didn't care much about money, but the grain in Jiangnan, the so-called Su Changshu, the world is full, this is what he said, the only existence in the world that can provide a large amount of food to the outside world for a long time is Jiangnan.

Shan Jidao said: "Actually, it is not difficult to imagine that the cost of production here in the imperial capital is just a little bit, sprinkled on the ground, and now the production is doubled." ”

Zhang Dai knew the cost, this thing was brought home by many businessmen, and some people did say that it had an effect, but more often it was slandered.

First of all, it is used improperly, and the chemical fertilizer is to look at the soil quality, the dosage, and the ingredients.

The second is the problem of water, later generations of China built countless water conservancy facilities, and the irrigated land did not exceed 20%, which naturally limited agricultural production, and at this time in the Ming Dynasty, it was possible to kill people for a piece of watering the land.

Without the command of the elders, only a few users of those fertilizers actually knew about their effectiveness, and they had already begun to gear up, intending to make a fortune from it.

Zhang Dai was a little surprised at this time, he had heard that the price of grain in the imperial capital was so cheap before, wouldn't those big households take the opportunity to buy it, and then control the supply of goods and raise it.

In the Ming Dynasty, this was simply a simple operation.

Zhang Dai didn't think so, as long as he regained the power of the imperial capital in the future and let them rule the world with literati, what good things were not all scholars? How many years of policy of the Ming Dynasty, originally a dynasty established by peasants, and a policy that was more helpful to the peasants, has also been turned into a refurbishment after constantly reciting the scriptures.

In the end, it is from a big family, compared to the poor Xiucai who watched the imperial capital send money to the lonely old man and went crazy with jealousy, Zhang Dai calculated, in fact, he was very surprised, the imperial capital is so rich, and in the future, they will be among the extremely popular ministers, and there will be not a few people who will get it.

Zhang Daizu has been the first assistant of the cabinet, and the old people in the family still talk about the grand occasion at that time, it is really full of guests and friends, and they want the wind to be windy and rainy.

Zhang Dai is much more atmospheric about this, but he still can't understand some situations at all.

"Why do you spend so much money just to let those fools read?"

In Zhang Dai's mind, this is simply the most stupid strategy, and it is also the reason why he is confident and dares to go to the imperial capital to carry out activities.

With that food, you can carry hundreds of thousands of troops at a time, go directly south, and slaughter the city when it encounters urban resistance.

In Zhang Dai's view, this is naturally these people who rebelled as peasants, and after entering the big city, they were naturally stupid, only knowing enjoyment, adultery and plunder, corruption and degeneration.

Of course, if they can fight on their own, just like Lu Buhuo and Dong Zhuo, and then bring the prince out, then the world will be peaceful.

Zhang Dai naturally can't imagine that the elders would rather want Vietnam than Jiangnan, and it is naturally the idea of opening the city without blood, so far the economy of Jiangnan is naturally developing for the better, although the business source in Europe is getting worse and worse, but the north is very good, and a large number of imported silk at least let the people who maintain silk have a way to live.

But it is undeniable that in this plane where there was no massacre by the Qing army in the south, the number of displaced people in major cities in the south of the Yangtze River has increased dramatically.

This was the consequence that the government had lost its authority and the Ming bureaucrats had begun to unscrupulously make money, and had already begun to use official forces to grab land for themselves, causing more and more landless peasants.

Even those officials and gentry saw it, but rejoiced, in this world where hot weapon technology has spread, the possibility of a mob rebellion is getting lower and lower, hundreds of men who were brainwashed and thought they were invulnerable rushed into the palace, the Manchu people have long been decayed, and the Tianli disciples attacked the palace under the response of the eunuchs in the palace, it is really an impossible situation in Chinese history, the guards are part-time workers, why bother with your life, it was Daoguang, who later became the emperor, personally fired a shotgun and killed the leader of the rebel army, and at the same time ordered the eunuchs to block the gate, It can be regarded as not causing the tragic situation of destroying all the princes.

Therefore, the difficulty of rebellion is also increasing, after all, those poor sticks can't even eat, where can they get weapons?

There are many poor people, so they take the opportunity to buy more young girls and servants, Zhang Dai's Su Xiaoxiao class, Xiu Se Ke Meal class, this is how they came.

Moreover, the waste of money and food in the imperial capital is not a star, how much does it cost to clean the streets, and the street lamps that are lit at night also show the wealth here, but I really don't know why to teach those poor people to read.

Shan Jidao said with a little fanaticism: "If you are literate, you will not be bullied, those who lift people are the worst, relying on the illiterate people and often bullying us." ”

In fact, no matter who it is, as long as it is a poor person, he is very dissatisfied with this world, but he often can't see through the truth behind this troubled world, and only thinks that it is fate, and the poor have to accept their fate, and it is difficult to understand those unjust systems.

But after figuring out how to use the knowledge monopoly to oppress the people, Shanjidao is definitely a fanatical supporter.

Zhang Dai was taken aback and said, "Why do you say that! ”

"It's obviously a tax of half a penny of silver, but the errand and Xiucai directly said that it was three dollars, and the extra money was put into their pockets, what are the people waiting for if they don't starve to death, only if they understand the official documents themselves, and don't fake their hands on those Xiucai, the people can live!"

This is an important emotional orientation in literacy classes, and of course, part of the truth.

Zhang Dai was shocked: "Those tax collectors are also villagers, it's not easy, and they can't let them run in vain." ”

Shan Jidao said: "Anyway, in the imperial capital, the common people don't need any talents and scholars at all, although they say strange things every day, saying that we don't respect them, and sooner or later they will be retributed, but I think they are the ones who starve to death first." ”

He looked at Zhang Dai, had the heart to say a few more words, probed his way, and said: "If Mr. has grievances in his hometown, and those who are colluded up and down and have nowhere to redress their grievances, they can go to the imperial capital to report the case and leave the bottom line, and when the world is unified, it is natural to settle the general account!" ”

Sure enough, Zhang Dai couldn't hide it now.

The expression on his face changed, and he said, "How can it be! ”

But immediately said with a pleasant face: "After all, the scholar is the root bone of the Celestial Empire, how can he be so targeted, even if there is a slight mistake, he should repay his grievances with virtue, and he should not hold grudges." ”

Shan Ji laughed evilly and asked, "Then if this adult and your children are killed, can you repay the grievances with virtue!" ”

"Those mud legs dare!"

Zhang Dai gritted his teeth and said: "What I mean is that everyone should value peace, as long as the court is good to scholars, scholars will naturally support them." ”
