As far as a businessman is concerned, his reputation may be good, and his business ethics are also very good, and the big businessmen in ancient times were very honest, but this cannot hide the fact that he is a traitor. Not only him, but also the other seven families, as well as all the merchants who sold the strategic materials to Houjin.

This is a capital enemy! Most. Naked, the most shameless enemy!

Since the beginning of the apocalypse to blockade Houjin, Houjin's life has not been easy. Especially at the beginning of the blockade, the entire Liaodong was in a mess.

In Hindu mythology, there are three main gods: the god of creation, the god of destruction, and the god of reconciliation, the god of creation is in charge of creation, the god of destruction is in charge of destroying the fruits of the former's labor, and the god of reconciliation is in the center. Nurhachi was a pure god of destruction, specializing in destruction in the land of eastern Liaodong, and did not engage in construction - he did not know how to build - and when he occupied a piece of land, he would rob all of it, kill it all, and burn it all. The people were displaced, many were reduced to cloak and driven like cattle and horses, cities were burned, crops were deserted, and goods were swept away.

To put it bluntly, the Eight Banners of Manchuria at that time were just bandit gangs that occupied a piece of territory.

At that time, the poor rats in Liaodong were hungry and skinny when they came out of the Ningjin defense line, and they came back with two bags of tears. In addition, natural disasters continue year after year, and it is not only the Ming Dynasty that suffers, but also Liaodong, which is a bitter cold land and suffers from disasters.

And Nurhachi in the later period almost became an old madman, who killed whomever he caught.

A reading novel

He's very good at fighting, it's true; He's lucky, it's true, too; But it's also true to say he's an old madman. What an emperor through the ages, that's.

In the first month of the ninth year of the Mandate of Heaven, Nurhachi issued nine kha edicts to investigate the so-called "people without grain", and ordered the officers and soldiers of the Eight Banners to "regard the people without grain as enemies" and "arrest them and send them", and finally ordered on the 27th day of the first month: "Kill the Nikan who has been found and sent from everywhere without grain."

On the third day of the tenth month of the tenth month of the 10th year of the Mandate of Heaven, Nurhachi accused the Han people of "harboring spies, accepting Zafu, and defecting endlessly", and ordered the Eight Banners Baylor and the chief military officer to prepare the generals above the imperial level, and lead the soldiers to the Han people in the village, "go separately, and go to the village fort, that is, dismount and kill."

The general meaning is: the army goes to the residential area of the Han people, and then kills people when they see them, until they are all killed.

In the end, the Jurchens, the Han Chinese, the Mongols, the Koreans, and the fishskin tartars that had just been caught from the deep mountains and old forests, left the entire Houjin with only 700,000 people.

The price of rice is as high as 80 taels of stone, and the price of cloth is 201 horses.

Just when Nurhachi was at a loss, Fan Yongdou appeared.

He, along with seven other caravans of Jin merchants, came to Liaodong and brought grain, cloth, gunpowder, copper and iron to the impoverished Houjin. In fact, they knew each other before, as early as more than 100 years ago, Jin merchants were doing business in Liaodong, and these Jin merchants were very familiar with the nobles of Manchuria. Because of the Manchurian aristocracy, the family decayed and even became unsustainable. And Jiexiu Fan has also gotten a lot of benefits from it. After the confluence, it was a family, and Fan Yongdou was not stingy, he first bought a hundred hectares of land in Jiexiu, and then took it out as the family property of the clan. He also moved to the clan school, and invited a gentleman from the city to teach at a high price, so that all the school-age children in the clan could study. Then he renovated the dilapidated ancestral house, and even bought the surrounding land, and expanded it to provide for everyone in the clan to live.

There are even some scholars, Fan Yongdou not only funded them, but also used his own connections to clear the way for them and help them embark on a career in office.

This county lord named Fan Dongcai is one of them, and he is also the third son of the previous head of the family.

This one was a showman, obviously there was some ink in his stomach, but not much, so he took the exam several times, but he didn't win. In the end, it was Fan Yongdou who personally wrote a famous post and asked someone to go to Taiyuan Mansion to help him operate, so that he became a tribute student.

The selection of tribute students is a bit like a special enrollment for later generations, but there are also differences. Just as the talents of this era are far rarer and more valuable than the college students of later generations, the rarity and status of the tribute students are far from being comparable to the special enrollment.

In the imperial examination system, the first pass is naturally to test Xiucai, which is similar to the entrance exam. Candidates successively take the county examination presided over by the prefect and the prefect examination, and after being admitted, they should be sent to the provinces by the imperial court to the academy examination presided over by Xuedao (or Xuezheng and Xuetai). Those who are admitted to the college examination will become the students of the county school (state school or government school) where they are located, and the students who are newly admitted are called attached students, and are gradually promoted to the enlargement students and the students of the school, collectively referred to as Xiucai. Those who have obtained the qualification of talent show can not be exempted from tolerance and field grain.

However, Xiucai is also divided into three classes, and only the first class can receive the food and subsidies issued by the government every month.

Xiucai is examined once a year by the academic administration, called the "annual examination", and its role is to supervise learning. In the year before the year of Dabi, a "scientific expedition" was held under the auspices of the academic administration. Students from prefectural, prefecture, and county schools who are ranked in the top three of the first, second, and third classes after the scientific examination are allowed to participate in the "township examination" held in the provincial capital the following year. Those who are admitted to the township examination are called Juren, and the first name of the Juren is Xie Yuan, and the Juren can enter Beijing to participate in the examination held by the central government in the second year. There are more than 100 in large provinces and 70 or 80 or 40 or 50 in small and medium-sized provinces.
