stand back, let me come

Chapter 307 307: You Understand [Two in One]

Outside Fugu City.

A donkey cart moved forward slowly.

The young scribe with a weak face sits casually.

One leg is bent to lay flat, the other leg is bent, using the knee as a temporary table, and the right hand is holding a pen to fill in the numbers on the short book form, sometimes doing mental calculations, sometimes pinching calculations, and taking out the abacus to fiddle twice when the data is not sure.

Dozens of volumes of field data that have been measured are placed beside the young scribe, and objects such as moment, guide, rope, and gauge are collected in a large bamboo basket. Ten young and middle-aged men in coarse linen clothes followed silently. Donkey cart left and right.

"What's so loud?"

The young scribe is concentrating on proofreading the measurement data.

A few faint cries came to the eardrums.

The tune has twists and turns, which makes people feel upset and irritable.

In the past few days, he got up early and stayed late every day, climbed mountains and waded, and almost visited the entire area under the jurisdiction of Fugu City.In order to obtain more accurate measurement data from fields with various shapes, he has worked hard. After the measurement, he has to sort out, summarize, and file...so busy that he falls asleep every day when he touches the pillow.

Today's progress is not going well, and he is annoyed.

There is still a six-point error after double-checking the data.

It was hard to figure it out, but was disturbed by noises.

The young scholar felt a little angry.

The entourage who went out with the young scribe to measure went out to inquire, and soon came back to reply: "It seems to be Mr. Kang."

The young scholar put down the slip form: "Kang Jishou?"

He is not in the city, how come he ran out of the city?
Could it be that the job at hand has been done?
The young man roughly estimated Kang Shi's workload and efficiency, calculated the approximate time, and came to the conclusion—no, even with superpowers, it is impossible to finish it in such a short time.The young scholar asked the donkey cart to stop on the road for a while, and soon he saw Kang Shi's group coming from another road. The latter was riding a horse, and there were more than 200 people, big and small, old and young, behind him.

At the same time, Kang Shi also noticed him.

Trot forward a few steps on horseback.

Say hello: "Wang Chao."

The young scribe, that is, Gu Chi crossed his hands and said, "Ji Shou, where did you... come from?"

No matter how you look at it, they are just a group of ordinary people.

As soon as they approached, two or three hundred voices rushed into his head, and Gu Chi leaned back slightly uncomfortably.

Kang Shi said: "According to my lord's order, take people."

In just a few sentences, Gu Chi roughly learned the general information from the voices of these common people-Kang Shi took the paperwork for recruiting workers from the government office to deceive Zhujia Village, and even handed over all the people in the village, young and old. There are all kinds of vicious sentences and vocabulary for cursing the new Heyin Sheriff.

Gu Chi ignored these useless noises.

He was curious about what happened in this village, which deserved his lord's anger, and let Kang Shi personally take people out--was it too much to use a sledgehammer to let Wenxin scribes do this job?You must know that Kang Shi's pile of work hasn't been finished yet.

Gu Chi guessed: "Are they harboring fugitives?"

Or is the whole village going to rebel?

Kang Shi said: "No, it's hard to explain this matter."

Gu Chi: "Talking while walking?"

Anyway, we are on the same road, just to pass the time.

Kang Shi did not refuse, and lowered his head to signal to Yu Zi who was following beside him, asking her to take a seat in Gu Chi's donkey cart.

Yu Zi glanced at the wooden cart pulled by the donkey, and then at the strange young scribe on the cart, a little afraid to approach.

But that's what Kang Shi meant.

Yu Zi didn't hesitate for a while.

After saluting to Gu Chi, she climbed up—fortunately she was born thin and did not take up much space, otherwise this wooden cart with almost nowhere to get off would be really difficult to sit—sitting upright, with a somewhat nervous and dull expression. Resistance to strangers.

Gu Chi glanced at her from the corner of his eye, and asked Kang Shi who this was. Kang Shi briefly explained how he and Shen Tang met Yu Zi, and learned about the absurd things common in Zhujia Village from Yu Zi.Regarding this, Gu Chi is not surprised.

Don't forget, he is a good reader of people's hearts.

Gu Chi raised the corners of his lips, showing a hint of sarcasm: "Does Ji Shou know something? When a cockroach ran to your feet to show off its power, the cockroach had secretly passed on the family for more than eighteen generations, and it was returned to the cockroach ancestor. The ancestral hall was built."

Cockroaches are commonly known as cockroaches.

This principle sounds novel.

Kang Shi touched this sentence several times, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that the words were not rough, so he asked: "Where is this common saying? It sounds funny and interesting. Isn't that the reason, these people are 'cockroaches' , children and grandchildren, endless reproduction..."

The whole village is used to this.

It's best to be able to rely on the iceman to talk about marriage, and it doesn't matter if you can't talk about it. It's convenient, quick and less troublesome to find someone you know well to "see" for yourself.You don't have to worry about punching and kicking him, and you don't have to worry about the brothers from your natal family coming over to show off your mother-in-law.

What you buy is completely your own.

As long as the succession of the family is not delayed, it doesn't matter if you are beaten half to death or driven crazy - a woman just needs her stomach to be able to give birth.People are crazy and stupid, but the cubs born are neither crazy nor stupid, are they?

Of course, it would be even better if you have hands and feet to help you with work, honor your parents, and serve you comfortably...

Gu Chi said: "Oh, my lord said so."

Kang Shi: "..."

Gu Chi talked about Shen Tang chatting with him earlier—Gu Chi thought that Shen Tang would let Lin Feng settle down with the common people with Chu Yao, and took the opportunity to let Lin Feng experience a lot, but Shen Tang kept Lin Feng by his side and tried his best to Avoid Lin Feng's private contact with the common people.

The reason Shen Tang gave was - not all common people are human beings, some are just beasts in human skin!These "beasts" have no moral restraint and weak minds.The more ignorant you are, the more you tend to behave like beasts...

It was also at the end of that conversation that Gu Chi began to consciously pay attention to the voices of many common people. Although there are simple, kind, and warm-hearted people, there are also ignorant, greedy, evil, and inferior to animals...

Measuring the land for a while and dealing with these common people also really made him see what it means to be one thing in front of the face and one thing behind the back, one thing on the surface and another thing in the stomach.

A weak appearance doesn't mean harmless.

The appearance of poverty does not imply simplicity.

When Kang Shi heard this, his brows stretched.

Well, it really deserves to be the protagonist he fancy.

Gu Chi: "..."

To be honest-

He always believed that the threat and lethality brought by Gong Xiqiu to Shen Tang was not as great as that brought by Kang Shi's scholarly way.Since the time of health came, the protagonist began to be unlucky visible to the naked eye.

Met with these lousy literary scholars——

Life is not hard, can't bear it.

Gu Chi skipped this topic and asked: "Zhujia Village is so rampant, it can be seen that the situation in the nearby villages is also indispensable. Is it necessary to check from house to house? If it is spread, most of the women who are purchased will be hidden, and they cannot be hidden..."

Gu Chi swallowed the remaining half of the sentence.

Those who couldn't hide were mostly killed.

If these women will bring disaster to the family, the best solution is to sell them to someone else, hide them, or kill them.Anyway, the child has been born, and the difference between a woman's life and her death is whether there are more children or fewer.

It's cruel, but it's reality.

Yu Zi quietly listened to the chatting of the two gentlemen.

Hearing this, my heart clenched tightly.

She hadn't expected this at all.

this will……

Scared the snake?
Gu Chi said again: "To capture a thief, first capture the king, first capture the sellers, and then listen to the news from them. However, it is recommended to impose the death penalty on the sellers, and to suspend the punishment for those who buy people from the sellers. The woman was rescued and then severely punished."

Yu Zi secretly tightened his grip on the material of the clothes, Kang Shi did not ignore the flash of unwillingness on Yu Zi's face, and said in a low voice: "It is true that you can't scare the snake, but everything can be changed. Who said that there is only one crime of 'slightly selling' Can they be punished?"

Zheng Qiao led Geng to capture Xin.

If you don't think about governance, you will leave a mess.

These messes are loopholes that can be exploited, and with Kang Shi's ability, he can swim in these loopholes to his heart's content!

One of them is the conflict of laws between the two countries.

The details of the charges are different and the sentencing standards are different.

For example, in the state of Xin, marriages only need the consent of both parents, a banquet is held, and the relatives of both parties are notified to be considered a husband and wife relationship, but in the state of Geng, it is necessary to go to the government to register.If it is not registered, the relationship between the husband and wife does not count, and it is considered "adultery".

For adultery, one is more ruthless than the other.

Men and women are either flogged, or paraded in the streets, or fined, or pounded rice, or thrown to build bridges, roads, and city walls...

This regulation of the Geng Kingdom is also related to their land tax system, to prevent the common people of the Geng Kingdom from paying less land tax through this channel.

"If the laws of the Geng Kingdom rule them out [adultery] and deny the relationship between the two..." Kang Shi said slowly with a cold smile on his lips, "...I remember that there was also a law in the Kingdom of Xin about men's prostitution. Measuring in detail..."

Adulterers, thirty floggings, torture.

Then there is a detailed rule, making the woman pregnant, the crime is one more serious; giving birth to a female heir, another [-] floggings, and cutting; —The end point is all five punishments.

The corner of Gu Chi's mouth twitched slightly.

Good guy!
Kang Shiwan understood this loophole.

To put it simply, it is to use the relationship of the Geng State to deny their husband and wife relationship, and to convict them of adultery; on this basis, use the laws of the Xin State to sentence them to adultery (harmonious) adultery, and then sentence them according to the number of children they have.Who can stand a set?

As for that, they may have also registered it?
This is impossible.

Kang Shi is working on household registration recently.

If there is registration, he can also let the other party not register.

As for whether this operation will cause problems?

He Yin who can make trouble has already drank Mengpo soup and is waiting to be reborn as an animal. Zheng Qiao is also far away from the sky, so he can't control it.Finally, and most importantly, will the news cause changes among the common people?Will it scare the snake away?

Mostly impossible.

Because the charges are all in accordance with the law.

The common people would only be afraid, and rush to re-register, never thinking that Shen Tang would renovate and sell it.Kang Shi can also take this opportunity to collect detailed household registration information, which is also convenient for checking the population later, or arresting people, or saving people.

Emmm...

Gu Chi smiled and cupped his hands in compliment: "Ji Shou, it's wonderful."

Kang Shi returned the salute: "Wang Chao, absurd praise."

One rode a horse and the other rode a donkey cart.

The two smiled sincerely.

If uninformed outsiders read it, they will probably feel that the friendship between gentlemen is probably like them.

Well, Yu Zi thought so too.

She didn't know what the two were talking about.

You can understand one or two sentences in ten sentences.

But judging by their appearance, it should be a good thing.

Yu Zi couldn't help admiring the two of them.

Especially Kang Shi, Mr. Kang.

Kang Shi's heroic figure of capturing dozens of households in Zhujia Village by himself could not help appearing in his mind, and he became more and more fascinated by Wen Qi and Wen Xin.

She believed that this was A Niang's secret guidance.

It must be so.

That's why she went there that day, recognized Zhang's accessories on Shen Jun's waist at a glance, and accidentally intersected with them. She has a way out.

Yu Zi's voice fell into Gu Chi's ears.

Out of the corner of his eye, he looked at the girl with a half-smile.

Asking Kang Shi with his eyes: [How is this girl's talent? 】

Kang Shi is still unclear.

However, with Yu Zi's savvy, inherited from her mother's intelligence, it is estimated that it is not much lower——

[Cultivate, it can be used. 】

Gu Chi was a little surprised when he heard this.

The wheels of the donkey cart rolled forward slowly.

Not long after, I entered Fugu City.

All the people in Zhujia Village were sent to jail.

The place is not big, but it's no problem to squeeze in for a night.

When Shen Tang heard the news, it was already dark.

Day two.

It was still daylight.

There was already a commotion in Fugu City.

The reconstruction work in the southwest corner was vigorously carried out. After the publicity of the guards walking around the streets and beating gongs and drums, more and more common people knew that the southwest corner was recruiting workers.Taking care of two meals a day can at least take care of [-]% of the fullness, and pay back the settlement wages after doing the work every day.

Some people didn't believe it at first.

How is such a good thing possible?

No matter how good the county guard is, he is not taken advantage of.

But there are also common people who trust Shen Tang—they will forcefully pull out the cancerous tumor in Fugu City the next day after they come to Shen Tang. , They were also the first to enjoy benefits, and then spread it to ten or ten to hundreds.

The southwest corner of Fugu City gradually became alive.

However, today's focus is not here.

dong dong dong-

The common people near the government office heard the long-lost sound of drums. At first they thought it was an auditory hallucination, but after listening carefully, they found that it was not. Someone was really beating the drum.Even those interested in going over to watch the fun saw a thin figure clenching his teeth and beating the drum that was almost for display with all his might.

Some common people also recognized the drummer.

"Isn't that the beggar from the ruined temple outside the city?"

Although Yu Zi had already been cleaned up at this time, some common people who were familiar with her recognized her identity, and the crowd whispered for a while.Yu Zi naturally also heard those small voices, but she didn't care about them now, and tried her best, as if she wanted to vent all the grievances of so many years with the sound of drums!

Finally, she succeeded.

Yu Zi knelt down, held the paper high in both hands, pulled her throat, exhausted the strength of her chest and lungs, and said with tears of blood: "Xiaomin Yu Zi, a member of Zhujia Village, now I want to sue my biological grandma!"

As soon as this remark came out, the onlookers were in an uproar.

This, this, this——

In a simple sentence, the amount of information is overwhelming!

What made them even more unbelievable was that Yu Zi came here to take the lives of the two blood relatives, and she didn't hesitate to suffer ten sticks for it!

Sue blood relatives, stick twenty.

Nian Yuzi was young, and he hadn't reached the hairpin yet, so he cut it in half.

Shen Tang asked: "So, you still want to sue?"

Yu Zi said decisively: "Yes!"
