Chapter 127: The Real Rich Man

These things, because of the endorsement of the so-called elders, no one can question them unless they are fools.

Just as Gu Meimen has been hinting at before, making everyone think that Kong Xingxie is pretending to be sick and pretending to be pitiful, but in fact the injury is very light, Mori Changyi rendered how much money he spent at that time, how long he lay in the hospital, and the critical illness notice, all of which are iron-clad evidence, and even evidence that no one dares to refute!

Not only the credibility, but also the fact that so far, although the elders have always treated others with a humble attitude and have been praised for truth or falsehood, there has never been a head-on challenge to them, and the people of this world who have been gently put down after that love their own rope life are very protective of their own rope life, and they are not willing to use their own rope life to test the elder's bottom line.

What is the discipline of the ruling class?

At the beginning of the establishment of the dynasty, the army of the Republic set foot in western Sichuan, all the way to the Minqiu without committing any crimes, helping the victims, temporarily immobile to the local tyrants and inferior gentry, helping the poor and the poor, and sending a health team to treat the sick and save people, and after they saved some local monks, the situation changed, and no one could have imagined that they would attack them from behind as soon as they were cured.

It's very simple, life-saving grace, in the eyes of any unrighteous person, you are good to me because God commands you to be good to me, I will not have any gratitude to you, but mock behind your back, another fool, you treat me badly, I have the right to punish you on behalf of the heavens.

Only by being so ruthless and shameless can you brutally suck the blood of the bottom.

For the upper echelons of the imperial capital, the elders did not kill them, did not torture and blackmail like Li Zicheng, but did not get any positive response and gratitude at all, but expanded their desires, when they were farmers, they wanted to get rich, became rich people, wanted to be officials, and when they became officials, they wanted to be first-class officials, and then they wanted to rebel and become emperors, so they naturally complained about why the Jade Emperor didn't send him the Xiuzhen classics.

This is the real contradiction between the elders and these princes and marquis in the imperial capital, they know each other, at least Li Xiangqian is below, watching the performances of these nobles, his stomach is full of laughter.

At the beginning, in order to prevent the secret fornication between Chengguo Gong and Yan Shenggong, the elders deliberately gave Kong Xingxie some medicine, of course, it was not a fatal thing, it was nothing more than to let him sleep more, how dangerous it was to declare to the outside world, what a critical illness notice, and find someone to tell the Kong family to be ready to do white things.

Think about it, if Kong Xingxie was slightly injured and lying on the bed, it was possible that the two sides would talk about peace, but now, it is a real mortal enemy.

In the end, the lawsuit is no longer a matter of the two families, but the bite between the magnates of the imperial capital and the magnates of other provinces, the contradiction between the ministers of the Ming Dynasty and the traditional Confucian scholars, and the inability to erase the enemy by force, and to fight each other in the officialdom, then there is only one left to smear each other.

This kind of mutual blackness is full of attack from the bones, and the black spots on both sides are full, and the Confucian Mansion itself is only well covered, but the three Yan Shenggong in history were abolished, especially the one in Chenghua Nian, who is even more murderous, rape, and forcibly occupying the land, and it is a group ridicule.

In fact, the cleaner it is in history, the more it is like the White Lotus, it is likely to be problematic.

Mori Changyi said it, it can be regarded as bringing back the injury of his own owner, at least no one dares to debate in this regard, of course, if he wants to debate, it is fine, but he also secretly regrets it, this was originally a killer weapon he prepared.

Sen Changyi Murong said: "The proprietor of my family occasionally has leisure and has his own place to go, as for pretending to be sick, the sky has changed in the past few days, and he occasionally feels cold, but he still comes to the trial court to see what happened to this crazy son!" ”

Mori Choichi said, "My lord, I also have a witness, waiting outside for the summons, please allow him to come forward." ”

Yuan Fang only thought about An Sheng, so he waved his hand and said, "Then it's faster." ”

The first witness was a woman, who actually held a young child in her arms, and as soon as she sat on the witness stand, she began to cry and cry, Yuan Fang knocked on the hammer and shouted: "Plaintiff lawyer, if your witness disturbs the court like this again, he will be driven away." ”

"I beg your pardon, my lord, this witness is bitter and vengeful, but no one responds to her grievances, and when she enters the court at this time, she can't help it, she has a reply to the complaint, which is now for your lordship to see, and now I will make a statement for her."

In the intermittent crying of the woman, Sen Changyi said slowly: "In the sixteenth year of Chongzhen, this woman's husband worked as a runner in a restaurant, earning a little income and supporting his wife and children, it was winter, the weather was cold, but his cotton jacket was very thin, because he bought the cotton for his pregnant wife, and he only had a single coat of clothes, and at that time, when he was serving wine to a group of sons and brothers who were drinking and having fun with a group of women in the Qinglou......

Mori Chang said righteously: "This is a trivial matter, how much wine did they spill on their bodies?" But on the spot, the running hall was beaten to the ground by the group, and the shopkeeper heard the news and came to stop it again, but it was already too late, and by the time he took the people back to their thatched huts, which were not called home, the people were already dead, and before they could invite Lang Zhong, they were already dead. ”

Sen Changyi suddenly pointed and said, "At that time, Zhu Xiaoneng was there. ”

At this time, it was Zhu Xiaoneng's turn to panic, he originally grasped the situation of Kong Xingxie's injury to make a fuss, and felt that he was victorious, and he could be acquitted, but what does it mean to dig up his black history?

"I didn't do it, it's ......" He just wanted to shout, but was quickly stopped by Gu Meimen, Gu Meimen seemed to have been thinking for a long time, and he was also a little anxious at this time, but he still said calmly: "This matter, I don't understand what it has to do with my proprietor, there is no evidence, far-fetched, I don't know what to do." ”

If Zhu Xiaoneng really blamed the person who drank with him at the time, then he would have offended people, and did he still want to mix?

However, Kong Xingxie's family started to ridicule like this, which is a bit excessive, not afraid of being hostile to the magnates of the imperial capital?

He turned to Yuan Fang and said, "My lord, whether what the plaintiff said is true or not will not be discussed for the time being, what does this have to do with this case?" Three years ago, it was the time of the Ming Dynasty. ”

Sen Changyi sneered and said, "If you don't admit it, then let's invite the next witness, there are many such people in the imperial capital." ”

The next witness was also called, and this person was a little richer, less emotional, and better dressed.

"Witness, what is your name and where do you make a living?"

"Little Li An, who is in the imperial capital, is in the medicinal herb business, running a small business, barely making a living."

"Oh, how do you do business?"

"On weekdays, I open shops to welcome customers, and there are also masters in major mansions who send people to order me to deliver goods."

"Door-to-door delivery, how do you collect the bill?"

"Divide the Dragon Boat Festival, Mid-Autumn Festival, and Chinese New Year's Eve."

"Oh, that is, to beg for it."

"Yes."

"How?"

"During the Dragon Boat Festival, send the rice dumplings in the Fuli, send moon cakes during the Mid-Autumn Festival, and send cakes on Chinese New Year's Eve, waiting for the checkout."

Sen Changyi suddenly pointed and said, "Do you recognize the defendant?" ”

"I recognize it, it's the prince of Chengguo."

"Louder, what's his name."

"Zhu Xiaoneng, the prince of Chengguo!"

"How did you meet?"

"He came to buy medicine, and the ones he bought were deer antlers, ginseng and other aphrodisiac things, and the price was a lot."

"Hahaha......" This caused laughter again, although not many people pay attention to age, but Zhu Xiaoneng is obviously not very old, at this age he goes to buy all kinds of big supplements every day, it is obvious how erosive life is, of course, there are really many idlers how envious they are, what kind of good fortune does this have to be, so that a young man in his twenties will be consumed to nothing.

Gu Meimen, who had been expected for a long time, has been suppressing Zhu Xiaoneng's heart to go crazy, of course, he has no way to get mad, but continued: "What does this mean, it is also a crime to buy medicine and eat it?" ”

Sen Chang didn't care at all, and continued to ask arrogantly: "Then tell me, how many bills have the Zhu family accumulated that has not been settled?" ”

Li An glanced at it with a wink, seemed to be encouraged, and said: "Last year's Dragon Boat Festival, waiting for the account master to close the account, it took a few days, and it took half a month one after another, and he barely got the money, and when it came to the Mid-Autumn Festival, he began to be picky. ”

The meaning of the previous days is naturally Chinese New Year's Eve, each family wants to close the account, calculate the salary for the partner, issue a year-end bonus, calculate how much they have earned in a year, how much they have lost, and the store owner will also give everyone red envelopes as appropriate, in short, it is a big deal.

Mori Changyi said: "Don't you have any reaction, at least it's appropriate to stop his family's medicinal materials." ”

Li An said: "How dare we, there are so many medicinal herbs sold, once our family stops and goes to another house, then don't think about it." ”

This kind of thing, even Gu Meimen is ashamed to help cover it up, and he doesn't even give people money for medicine.

However, think about it carefully, this Chengguo Gongjia, since the fall of the Ming Dynasty, has become a common people, although in and out of many times, or to the Chengguo Mansion itself, but it is already very low-key, and the annual Yulu naturally can't get, the hundreds of stone grain is nothing, but it is not without a small supplement, especially the original shops that were forcibly occupied by the dry shares, after getting the support of the elders, they all began to stop giving, and it was naturally more comfortable to do a good deal, at the beginning Zhu Chunchen's family also sent a family to dismantle the store, As a result, the chengguan brigade that was waiting in ambush was wiped out in one fell swoop and directly transported to Australia to herd sheep.

Although afterwards, it was inevitably rumored that the new court was lying, and at first said that it would treat them well, but afterwards they were preparing to settle accounts after the autumn, and the gentry everywhere were also secretly clamoring, in their opinion, they helped maintain the system, so naturally they had the natural privilege to plunder and rob the people under their rule, and any force that cracked down on their amassion would be completely destroyed by the underworld.

Of course, no one has started to make such a famous dish as fried the Presbyterian Church yet, but as anyone who strives to promote equality, it is inevitable that those who will be offended will have vested interests, and it is normal to be hacked in the future.

For these former Ming nobles in the imperial capital, the past days were very aggrieved.

Historically, they were analized by Li Zicheng for a wave, and then directly stripped naked by my Qing Dynasty, and even the house was bought directly for one or two silver, and they basically disappeared into the long river of history, but they didn't know, they didn't know that they were actually saved by the elders, after all, at this time, their family was still complete, and the land and property were still complete.

Then, it is inevitable to have Long Wangshu, asking for the restoration of his title, receiving the Yu Lu is still a trivial matter, expressing his determination every day, hoping to make new contributions to the elders, naturally it is the righteousness of the right, human beings, since its birth, there is no slightest gratitude, contentment, even if there is, it has long been made out by thousands of years of cruel competition.

Under the temptation of high wages, domestic servants and slaves fled one after another, which also made them even more dissatisfied, and the elders did not care about the dignity of the nobles, and the light and dust were the same, accommodating, those who signed the death deed, originally to work in their homes for a lifetime, as long as they found the right opportunity, ran to the immigration agencies of the presbyterian churches, they could eat and drink well and just wait to go to the field to live.

Even the freelance servants began to demand a wage increase.

It would be strange if they were happy with the decrease in wealth, the increase in expenditure, and their refusal to give them official positions and services.

And these families, who have been sitting on the mountain for hundreds of years, where have they learned to be thrifty, it is really a pill of pills.

Li Xiangxiang naturally knew this, he deliberately played all kinds of luxuries, all kinds of enjoyment, just to disintegrate these big families, in the past days, in these big families, stealing and selling property in exchange for all kinds of fresh gadgets, Li Xiangqian also did a lot, exchanging glass toys for Ru kiln cultural relics, and also understood that in the past two years, these families have long been strong in the outside world.

"Dream of Red Mansions, it's really like a Dream of Red Mansions." He carefully compared.

According to the identity, the author of Dream of Red Mansions may be the highest level of identity, after all, the grandson of a high-ranking official at this level is difficult to make a living from code words, eh, Churchill's Nobel Prize in Literature is full of slots, and it is too likely to be ghostwritten by others, so I will not discuss it here.

There are many things that cannot be written unless you have been a rich man or eaten a master.

For example, there is a TV series in China in later generations, which writes about the lives of rich people in so-called big families, but in it, it is obviously the fantasy of some emperors' golden flat dans, such as someone being knocked down, getting his clothes wet, and howling that you stained my limited edition clothes or something!

However, the real rich people will not be like this, as Li Xiangqian saw, Zhao Jiaren was also accidentally spilled some wine on his body at the banquet, at that time people didn't say a word, immediately said goodbye and left, after a few minutes, he changed his clothes and came back without fireworks.
