Chapter 306: The Benevolence of Lixin City (4)

Three days later, all the debtors of the Ox Gang came to the market with their deeds, and when they were very numerous, they arranged for them to sit down.

Those who have no debts also come over to watch the fun.

The secretary of the Mojia family and the members of the Xuanyi Department, who had learned a lot from the school, dealt with this kind of thing very quickly, and soon divided the debts into two categories.

One is that the interest is not very much, and if the harvest is better this year, it can almost be repaid. But usually this kind of borrowing will be borrowed next year.

In addition, the interest is so much that it has been completely repaid, and it is obvious that it has been pressed and cannot be turned over.

Everyone was full of expectations, expecting good things to happen, but their hearts were still uneasy.

Many old people came forward first, and He Shi said: "The harvest has not been good in recent years, and I am afraid that I may not be able to pay it back." ”

Shi nodded, sighed, and said, "You guys are pretty good here." ”

"In some border cities, you have to go out with the army every year, and your family's fields are so barren that you can't plant them at all. As a result, I still have to obey the king's orders to go out to fight, leaving only my wife and children at home, where can I be busy? ”

"There hasn't been a big war in Luyang over the years, but if the harvest is a little bad, it will be difficult to live......"

After he introduced these words, it immediately resonated with countless people.

Although people wondered what I was saying about debt collection, when the conversation was brought up, they no longer cared about it, and complained one after another.

It is only said that although there has been no war conscription in recent years, a series of labor is unbearable, and it is necessary to cultivate public land before daring to take care of private land, which often misses the season.

Sometimes the repair of the city wall and the palace will not take into account the agricultural time, and it will be repaired in some spring and autumn periods, and it will be performed in winter, but the tax cannot be paid less.

After complaining, Shi sighed and said: "This is a situation in the world. The Mo family wants to benefit the world and the people of the world, so this kind of thing has to be considered. ”

He told everyone to be quiet, and said: "We saw Lu Yanggong this time, and I heard that Jin Chu was going to war again. The Mohists pay attention to right and wrong, and love, and hope that there will be no more disputes in the world. You say, if you don't fight again, okay? ”

The important reason why Mozi put forward the doctrine of both love and non-aggression and can have lasting vitality is that people in the world are tired of war.

Especially...... A war in which you don't get benefits. The scholars and nobles benefited, the peasants had to fulfill their obligations, and then they had to pay taxes, and their own fields had no time to be planted, and they were exploited by the usury of the nobles, and their lives were extremely miserable.

If you don't fight, it's naturally good, and even if you can't solve all the problems, you can solve some of the immediate problems.

When everyone heard the news that there was another war, they were not shocked, the war was already taken for granted, and they just sighed one after another.

After listening to Shi's reasoning, they all agreed: "If you don't fight, it's naturally good......

"What is the truth of your Mo family?"

"Will the king listen?"

"Hey, looking at your appearance, you know that you have been a hundred miles away, you know the reason, why do you want to fight?"

Everyone wanted to know why the world was unstable and why there was a war.

So he took the opportunity to promote a wave of Mo family's truth, and what he said was extremely simple, and those who listened couldn't help nodding.

Meng Sheng and Hu Feizi glanced at each other, and said in their hearts: "It is really different from us, this method of inciting public opinion, we can't wait." The Xuanyi Department cannot be governed by him! The truth he said was simple and easy to understand, and he often provoked emotions where necessary, which I am afraid is innate......"

Shi went around in a circle, and all the credit for Lu Yanggong's decision not to charge interest was transferred to the Mo family.

So after explaining the truth of the Mo family, he said casually: "I thought, you said that if Lu Yang Gong fights, he will not be able to defeat the enemy on his own, but the rewards are all his." The peasants and soldiers who followed him in battle, I couldn't figure out where the benefits were. ”

"Sometimes I think, like this cow market. In the morning, there are many merchants and craftsmen. In the evening, there are no more people. ”

"You say...... Is it that people love the morning and hate the evening? ”

This is a simple question, but behind this simple question, there is a hidden truth that can turn the world upside down.

The seated man thought about it and replied, "I'm afraid not." Just because you want to sell your goods, you have to go early, the sooner the better. ”

Shi nodded and said: "That actually means that what people like is profit." And not in the morning. It's not the evening that people hate, it's that they can't profit. ”

This truth is explained in this way, and it is much more popular, and it also tells those things that are hidden behind it, and people nod their heads one after another.

Shi Dao: "So we asked Lu Yanggong and said...... You can gain from the war, and you will be crowned Luyang, so you are willing to fight this battle. ”

"But as for the peasants, they will not be able to cultivate when they are dead or wounded, or they will not be able to cultivate when they are wounded, or if the war delays the season of farming. People hate not profit, so they hate wars, so why do you make people brave? ”

Where have the people here heard such a truth? One by one, they looked at Shi in amazement, thinking that this is not their own voice? This Mo family's truth is really audible.

On second thought, if I said such a thing, I was afraid that I would be dead. And this young man questioned like this, how could there be any turn for the better if he was still alive and still holding a bond to tell everyone that something good was good?

Many people hurriedly asked, "What about ...... So what did you say? ”

Shi shook his head and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter what he said. I just said, just do it according to our Mojiali world, maybe we can't do it now, but at least let the people get a little bit of a small profit. ”

Some people were curious: "What is your Mojiali method for the world?" Tell me about it......"

It's not just one person who wants to know, but many people want to know, but Shi paused and said: "This is not in a hurry, you can say it slowly, today I only talk about the small profit." ”

"I said, according to the principles of our Mo family, giving you such a vast fiefdom of Luyang is not for you to have fine clothes and food, but for you to be able to govern Luyang well; Giving you a very high title is not to make you proud, but to make the people obey and enforce the law. It's all about getting things done, but what is it? ”

"The thing we should do is to make the local area rich and the people worry-free. Now you can't do that, there will be a war soon, and the people will not be able to gain but will not win. ”

"I'll just say, I've heard you have a lot of money lending. If he is rich, give him a set date to repay his debts. The poor, even if they are urged to pay off their debts for ten years, the longer the time, the more interest they have, and when it is critical, they will flee to pay off their debts. If you rush urgently, not only will you not be able to repay it after all, but many people will think that you are greedy for money and profit and do not care for the common people. ”

"Otherwise, burn the useless and vain IOUs, discard the account books that have no real name, give the people small profits, and let them fight for you."

When these debtors heard this, they stood up excitedly, and many felt that they had heard it wrong, and when they saw that others were also excited, they were convinced that they had heard it correctly.

What a good thing this young man said, what a good thing! This is to abolish these debts!

Although it is extremely chic, it is clearly stated that it is to exchange small profits for public support, but it is still enough to move.

After all, there is no need to buy with small profits, this military obligation still has to be served, this is the rule between heaven and earth, the Son of Heaven is the prince, the princes are the doctors, and the farmers under him are all subordinate, as a matter of course.

Can...... If it is really so natural, why is the person in front of him saying such a red coin?

In confusion, Shi Xian made everyone stop cheering and said: "Actually, judging from the truth of our Mo family, this is not the case. ”

"Before, you served and was drafted, and you couldn't make a profit, and sometimes you couldn't pay it back and became a servant, which is not right from the perspective of the Mo family's reasoning. This is the case in the world, so it proves that this truth itself is wrong, and we will talk about this slowly in the future. ”

"I have called you here today to give you a small profit, so that you can fight for it. Everything must be profitable, and you must have something to gain. ”

"In that case, I will say it."

After saying that, he got up and said: "If you have too many debts and can't even pay the interest, each family will be light and strong, follow the drill military formation, and learn how to use weapons." ”

"If you can complete it, then you can waive the interest. If you can defend the city without escaping, follow orders, and kill the enemy, then you can waive the principal. ”

After that, he asked someone to take out the bonds, and took out the ones that had been picked out and obviously not paid one by one, and said: "As long as we agree, then we will get rid of the interest now." During this period, there is a government treasury to supply grain and rice, and it is not allowed to leave at will. ”

"Is there anyone who is willing?"

Many people have reached the point where they only have one life left, and those debts have long been pressed and they can't breathe. And conscription into service is their obligation, and they can't resist, where is there such a good thing?

Unjust enrichment? When in the world did there be a reason why farmers still need to profit when they fight?

Immediately, more than 100 people stood up and said, "We are all willing!" You Mo family is what you say, we believe you. One piece of wood can be exchanged for twenty eridium gold, where can you not believe it? ”

There are too many people in debt, and just these heavily indebted ones can find six or seven hundred.

Shi nodded and said, "In this case, don't rush first." In addition, the defense of the city should also be repaired, I have asked Yu Luyang Gong, the same is the principle of profit, in the process of repairing the city, if there is a good job, half of this year's tax will be exempted! ”

The crowd cheered, and Shi reassured everyone: "You don't have to worry, it's just to defend the city." ”

"Here, you don't know the reputation of my Mo family, but everyone knows it in Shangqiu Song Land."

"The year before the King of Chu attacked the Song Dynasty, the Mo family opposed the unjust war and helped the Song people defend the city, not only was it not broken, but also forced the King of Chu to form an alliance, and then he did not attack the Song Dynasty injustice! You can ask the merchants about this, they all know! ”

"If we are here, if we defend the city, you will not have too many casualties. Isn't it worth it in exchange for the forgiveness of these debts? It's like merchants selling goods, negotiating a price with each other and then making a deal. ”

After he finished speaking, everyone was surprised, but they also believed in their hearts that this kind of lie could not be said casually, but it was located on the border and could not be known.

Some people also asked strangely: "Since you helped the Song people defeat the Chu people, why are you here to help the Chu people now?" ”

Shi Haha laughed and said: "In the whole world, how can there be any Song and Chu people?" They are all farmers and businessmen, so what's the difference? The Mo family wants to benefit the world and make the world non-attacking, so what they oppose is an unjust war, not a certain country and a certain king. It was unrighteous for the king of Chu to attack the Song Dynasty before, and now it is also unrighteous for Jin and Zheng to attack, and we only oppose injustice. Like you, those people of Jin Zheng have no grudge against you, why do they beat you? Isn't it that the princes and nobles are warlike and want to take profit? ”
