Chapter 49: You Hit It
Wang Daren is also troubled, the elders do not play cards according to the routine, do not worship the emperor, do not worship the ancestors, but go to see those stupid and stupid people, but it is incomprehensible and incomprehensible.
However, no matter how hard and tired you are, you have to serve the elders well, fortunately, the elders don't have many small offices, and they don't like to take a group of yelling followers out to bully men and women, in the past, those people were basically swept away and went to Australia to herd sheep.
This is where the advantages of English-speaking countries lie, oh, how harmonious the British Empire is, because the low-end population has gone overseas to herd sheep and kill natives, and naturally the native is pure, and the capitalist master thinks that good is really good.
Wang Daren looked at these lists, but he didn't dare to make mistakes, although he didn't understand the rules of the elders going down to "inspect", but he thought that he should be careful and careful, say hello in advance, and say some good things, it is best to say that their home should be repaired, the pot should be stewed with meat, and the rice tank should be full.
Although the dynasties are different, but the faces of the bureaucrats are almost the same, and the means are similar, although Wang Daren is conscientious, he can also be called not greedy, after all, the salary of the elders is almost ten times that of the Ming Dynasty, and all kinds of people are also watching, so that he does not dare to be corrupt.
Later generations like to use some figures to show that the salaries of Ming officials are low and the conditions are poor, and to find reasons for their corruption.
However, this in itself is a contract, you get a salary, do things, don't talk much.
But you used the power given to you by the government to do bad things, reaped undeserved benefits, and finally shouted injustice, saying that it was because of low wages, but the low wages themselves are what you knew before taking the imperial examination, and you still don't value the rent-seeking transactions brought about by that power?
That's the biggest joke.
In fact, if these people only marry one wife, give birth to two or three sons, and use one or two domestic servants, they can completely support themselves, even if it is a county order, they can live a very nourishing life!
Therefore, the problem of Daming is not that the salary is low, but that there is no one to check and balance the civilian bureaucracy!
Civil officials may say high-sounding words, but when it comes to real things, if they meet any of their own sons and nephews, fellow villagers, or in the same year, they are not allowed to be released, and they are the same as the light, anyway, they can say that traitors are heroes, and heroes are butchers.
In the Ming Dynasty, the only source of high-ranking officials was the imperial examination, so everyone in the officialdom competed in the officialdom about where they came from, their ranking in the examination that year, and what was the use of celebrities who were in the same year's examination, what did this cause?
Everyone knows each other, and if they are "done" all of a sudden, it is inevitable that the rabbit will die and the fox will be sad, and the things will hurt them, and they will not dare to do the black.
So, this situation has led to the fact that, if possible, these civil officials have a small meeting in private, and they are united in the same spirit, and they want power from the emperor, if they hold great power in the court, it is the Zhongzheng Ying Dynasty, if they are driven away, then the court is full of traitors, lackeys, traitors, corrupt elements, and old lewd worms, in short, everything is wrong, even breathing is wrong.
The civilian-official group formed in the Ming Dynasty is not bad, but lacks checks and balances, what are checks and balances?
There is a natural force to restrict them and compete with them for power, which in the Tang Dynasty, it was the competition between the landlords of the scholar clan and the landlords of the Han people, and in the Song Dynasty, it was the competition between the nobles and the scholars, but in the Ming Dynasty, although the old peasant Zhu Yuanzhang was eloquent, he originally wanted to rely on his sons to be foreign vassals, and it could be regarded as a balance between the literati, in fact, if there was no fierce and unscrupulous Zhu Yunwen to do stupid things and be fooled, how could Zhu Di have a chance to rebel?
Without the checks and balances of the vassal kings, the vassal kings could only hide at home and learn to have sons like pigs, which caused a serious burden on the country, and all the words made by the civil officials were just fighting for power and profit.
But, in the new plane, suddenly there is a group of unexpected visitors, they have the strength, and their own will, the Council of Elders may be more authoritarian, maybe there are some black spots, but it is the best checks and balances, with them watching, any civil servant, oh no, any civil official can only do things honestly.
No, someone complained, Wang Daren had to take over the case quickly, although there was no survey of the satisfaction of the masses, but he also found that something was wrong, if it was the boss of the same civil official, he could still set up friendship and communicate, and he didn't care about money and women, and he couldn't use the banquet and singing and poetry to get closer to the feelings, and the elders who didn't enter the general existence of oil and salt always had pressure.
"Who are they, who are the plaintiffs and who are the defendants?"
For the time being, there is no court, and the elders themselves do not understand the principles of the legal system of later generations, so they can only study and explore while actually working, which also allows Wang Daren to also serve as a part-time officer, but fortunately, in the new atmosphere of this new city, the bad guys are either like the rich all shrinking their eggs, or they are distributed to the frontier like the hooligans.
It seems that there is a different case today.
The old man was very angry, without any uneasiness in the court, in fact, this is a small hall, some people come to watch the excitement, between the New Year, no one will fight a lawsuit, usually if it is the old era, it is basically just a direct bomb away, but now, it is different.
Like the Western lawyers in later generations, the favorite of the officials and lawyers everywhere is also the people's lawsuits, the best rich families fight for land, brothers fight for property, so don't you talk up and down, if the time is delayed for a long time, then you can support the whole family.
Now, there is no such condition.
In fact, the examination is actually carried out in the designated hospital of the elders, and the prisoners are detained, and now the elders are holding them in their hands for the time being, in fact, it is directly to arrest those who have committed various crimes, and those who have gone without affecting the productivity of those who have gone to Australia, in fact, there are a lot of powers to be separated, and in a county, it is no longer an era when the county officials and county lieutenants control everything, although there is no timely communication system, but where there are railways, it is faster to convey information up and down.
If it is a small case, but it is necessary to report the news back and forth between the county and the provincial capital, each time it has to run hundreds of miles, several days, and continuous back and forth, before it can be handled.
Do everything, you have to consider the input-output ratio, later generations of Chinese women, overseas are basically regarded as easy girls, so that some low-level blacks, as soon as they get off the plane, they say to strange Chinese women at the airport, do you learn English, such an input-output ratio is extremely poor, this is the problem, if they stick upside down or even work to support first-class people, no one says anything about them, but in the face of Chinese is a quiet time, want a house and a car, face foreigners, Even the lowest level of blacks are chasing after the upside down, and that's a problem.
And a government, looking at a place is the same, if a piece of land can hold more wealth, then the court will not care about paying some resources, but if the gap between input and output is too large, then the way to manage is to build a stronghold to govern.
This is China's problem, unlike the national platter of the United States, the old China in many predecessors, is a net, from the top down, the imperial capital presses the provincial capital, the provincial capital presses the provincial city, the provincial capital presses the provincial city, the provincial capital presses the prefecture, the county seat presses the countryside, and in order to break through their own net, they use the tricks of the weak people, whether it is a variety of tricks, they are trying to make themselves unable to gather the strength that they can resist themselves.
This is why the people may make it possible, and not make knowledge known to them.
Wang Daren quickly understood what this meant, if they were all completely ignorant people, it was all up to him, how cool was that kind of Qingtian master?
But these two don't play according to the routine.
I saw the old man shouting: "Lord Qingtian, this little second is a bully, knocking down my husband and me on the street, and repeatedly slandering that I fell by myself, I am dozens of years old, my eyes are not dazzled, my legs are not lame, how could I fall by myself, he is bullying people, please let the master call the shots for me." ”
Huo Yuanjia said: "This adult, today my mother and I went to receive the New Year's goods, met this person, lying on the ground, I hurriedly went to help him up, who knows, he got up, and kept saying that I hit it, it was like blood spurting people, he was drunk and fell to the ground!" ”
"Why are you wronging people, it's a sin for me to have a little alcohol on me, my lord, look at this kid, such a big boldness, at first glance, he is a bandit, and he will be a bad seed in the future, you cure him, only then can you show the merits of adults."
Wang Daren's eyes were sharp, but he found that the school uniform that the kid was wearing seemed to be a little familiar, but he didn't dare to make it too obvious, but scratched his head and said: "What a trivial matter, this is a big New Year, why do you bother to be happy, disperse, go home and prepare to live." ”
When the old man heard this, he suddenly sat down and shouted, "You are all colluding together to force me to death, me, then I won't leave?" ”
The old man simply lay on the ground and rolled, but Wang Daren laughed and scolded, and ordered: "Come on, drive me out, when I am a place here!" Here is %...... Government! ”
The old man looked at the official approaching, and suddenly shouted: "I have cerebral thrombosis, high blood pressure, heart disease, you dare to touch me, believe it or not, I will die on the spot, when the time comes, I will let my son carry the coffin for you to make trouble!" ”
This is said upside down, you are dead, how can you let your son make trouble.
However, this person who carried the coffin to make trouble, but it is not trivial, in the history of New China, there is such an incident, the child ran to the supermarket to steal something, and was found in the pocket xxx, the supermarket people found out and called the parents, and the parents beat and scolded him.
This is normal, but later, the child can't think of jumping off the building, this is the lack of parental education, and the parent is looking for the door, even if it is the wrong party, it is unstoppable, and he got 850,000 in one go, and the supermarket owner was sentenced, and it was really the peak of the deceased.
This is in ancient times, but there are a lot, the literati of the Ming and Qing dynasties have a lot of notes, there are many records of this kind of behavior, and in the name of insulting the deceased, carrying the coffin to walk, it is really an invincible weapon, unparalleled in the world.
And this seriously ill old man is invincible in the world, and the government is powerless against it.
There is evidence that it is conclusive to hit people, and the offender's family has a lot of money that cannot be executed, there is a daughter who is seriously ill, and the family has a lot of money, but he claims that he has no money, and throws the pot to the masses and the government, of course, there are also surveillance cameras who have found that the primary school student who helped him up is the one who knocked him down, and after being poked, he was angry and said that he had high blood pressure.
Therefore, the problem is not in the matter, but in the human heart.
Several officials are also afraid, although their work welfare income is good these years, but it is impossible for them to become rich, the so-called rich man, that is really the old man who dares to support him when he sees it on the street, and the coal digging into the coal boss is even more not, this is just a job, if you put your life on the line because of work, you think of an old man who is paralyzed or pretending to be paralyzed rushes over, and the government is helpless, the police at the police station will leave after saying a few words, who is not afraid?
Wang Daren was a little angry, looking at the old man here, he was ruthless, and said with a smile: "Okay, then you can stay here." ”
He could probably guess right and wrong, and the old man had no grief and anger in his eyes except for excitement, and his tone was sleek, and he naturally had a back.
He left a record of Huo Yuanjia's mother and son, so that it would be convenient for his hands and feet in the future, and he dispersed with everyone, and ignored the old man.
The old man was stunned, but he didn't know that this was a joke told by an elder during Wang Daren's training, that was it, the two of them fought because of their feet, so they ran to the police station, and the director pretended to say that the director was not there, and when he came back to deal with it, it was half a day, and the anger of the two disappeared, and naturally there was nothing to do.
However, the old man stayed in the small interrogation room for a while, and still howled, such as "royal law" and "injustice".
Wang Daren is also numb, the position of the mayor of this new city is not easy to sit, with the gradual development of commerce and trade here, a variety of taxes and fees alone is a big source of wealth, even if it is not in his own pocket, a place to clean, to clean, always need a lover, there are always related households want to jump out to do things.
That's a lot of power.
Although the frequency of the elders going to the lower part of the tour is decreasing, as the time goes by in the new time and space, it is no longer a blind man touching the elephant for various situations, at least they came out to study the money for the sale of treasury bills, and after hearing someone howling continuously, they asked, "Is there a case?" ”
Wang Daren said: "An old man, stubbornly pestering, I let him be cold." ”
Qian Jin said: "If you are afraid of the bad impact during the Chinese New Year, you can just notify your family members to take it away." ”
"yes, I'll have someone find a way to inquire."
