Villager of Daming

Chapter 696: Merchants' Political Awareness of Pursuing Profit

Chestnuts weighing almost fifty kilograms each, each of us has six or seven on hand. Chestnuts are big, weighing nearly six hundred grams per kilogram, twenty grams each.

In a team of more than 200 people, there are only a few people per person.

Everyone peels the skin and eats it, and the skin is thrown directly under the feet.

There is a trash can next to it, but the formation of the escort team cannot be messy. They can only throw it away and have the cleaning staff clean it.

There are guards from five prefectures in the team, 20 people from each prefecture, clerical clerks and errand boys, that's the combination.

When other people saw it, they immediately stayed away, fearing that they would be misunderstood and attacked.

For such a long time, the people have known that there are always other people in the team in Xiaqiu Village. It is said that His Majesty went to the market in Xiaqiu Village to eat skewers.

God knows who is included in such a large team today. It has nothing to do with you, so don't get involved.

At the same time, no one suddenly knelt down to cry out. There is no need to look for trouble at this time. If there is a real problem, you can kneel on the west side of Xuanjin Bridge outside Xihua Gate at any time.

Kneel in front of the Imperial City, with Fuhua Building and the Library behind you. Who dares to arrest you?
No one kneels at Xuanjin Bridge. If you have any problems, go to the county government office. Yingtian Prefecture has Shangyuan County and Jiangning County. Ask them if they dare to bend the law for personal gain?
There were few officials in the Ming Dynasty. Officials at the county level were appointed by the court and had nothing to do with the prefects and prefects. The prefects and prefects could not designate who were the county magistrates, chief administrators, county magistrates, and canon historians.

There is an advantage in this. The county magistrate cannot form factions with the state or government.

For example, officials in Xuancheng County who have performed well and are ready to be trained will not be promoted to officials in Ningguo Mansion and transferred out.

It feels like they moved to another government and may not be familiar with the local situation, but they have eliminated the shortcomings of their previous corruption that no one dared to report.

Otherwise, it will happen that an official starts from the grassroots level and becomes corrupt, and then when he gets promoted, the officials below him will not dare to speak out.

And those officials below were promoted by this corrupt official, and they influenced each other layer by layer, so officials must protect each other.

The people above are not protecting others, they are protecting themselves. There are problems all over the place. If the people below report to the director, what's the use of just reporting it to the prefect?

Sometimes the administration of officials is so simple, so why are there situations that are not simple?Look at Hu Weiyong!He also wanted to evade Zhu Yuanzhang!
Zhu Wentian firmly supported Zhu Yuanzhang and stabilized his position. If he did not fight for this right, the people of Ming Dynasty would benefit.

In this era, Zhu Wentian has no intention of becoming an emperor. He is quite stable and can only be maintained.

In another era, if he arrives suddenly, it will be another matter. If he feels that the emperor cannot do it now and can only overthrow him, then he will do it.

This is the area under the jurisdiction of Shangyuan County, and there are government officials to maintain order. Under the strong power, neither merchants nor workers can unite.

"There are too many transactions, what is this? The price of cotton has increased? Are they all harvesting cotton, harvesting it during the current season? Is there someone who can't sell the cotton and deliberately speculates it, like those who sold bees before?"

Entering a hall, Zhu Xi saw a lot of information about cotton harvesting, and he remembered bees and honey.

At that time, those people joined forces to speculate, and Xiaqiu Village was unhappy. They directly broke the situation and called capital against capital without using administrative means.

Xiaqiu Village has said that if the government handles the matter, our village is incapable of doing so.

From then on, all the merchants in Nanjing's convenience stores were obedient and could not play tricks.

People in Xiaqiu Village obviously have guns but don't use them. They just throw mud at you and then use the mud to knock you down.

Asked if the person who was knocked down by the mud would accept it?If you don't obey, shoot him in the head.

"Your Highness, look at the business names. There is a business name for merchants to transport the east and west branches in exchange for salt. If you check it, you will know that it is guaranteed to be a business in the north."

The chief reminded that these merchants who previously sent things to the northern border in exchange for salt have now begun to collect cotton, which means that he has judged that the Ming Dynasty is stable and can go there to sell warm items. "Spring River Plumbing Duck Prophet?" Zhu Di, the most active thinker, followed.

"What His Highness King Yan said is true. Su Dongpo knows how to eat. He knows that mugwort and asparagus can detoxify puffer fish, and Dongpo meat is also more delicious.

However, he wrote two poems at that time, two of Hui Chong's Evening Scenes on the Spring River. It was the time when Song Shenzong died.

Zhao Xu died in the spring, so Su Dongpo wrote these two poems.

In the first poem, there are three or two branches of peach blossoms outside the bamboo, a prophet of ducks in the warm water of the spring river.The ground is covered with wormwood and reed buds are short, which is when the puffer fish is about to come.

It was written based on the principle of mutual growth and mutual restraint. Regarding the reform issue, he was willing to be a member of the balance, which was to safeguard the imperial power.

However, when the two returned to Hong, they wanted to break away from the group, but Yiyi still looked like people returning from the north.I know from afar that there are many winds and snows in the Shuo Desert, and I am waiting for spring in the south of the Yangtze River.

What he wrote was not the scenery, but the inquiry and attitude. He wanted Song Zhezong to determine whether to give him half of the right to fight.

He wanted to wait until Song Zhezong suppressed Wang Anshi's people, or allowed him to participate in the suppression.

So in the end he went back and returned to the court. This is not a landscape poem, but a political poem.Including Li Bai..."

The director explained it based on Zhu Di's words. In the past, he also thought it was about describing scenery and food.

Then Hanhan told me, which of the poems written by Su Shi existed alone?
Li Bai was not a fool. He once wrote that all the birds were flying high and the lone cloud was alone.I never get tired of seeing each other, only Jingting Mountain.

That was the last moment, and then Princess Yuzhen died. In the second year after he wrote this poem, it was at that time that he was still thinking about using political connections to gain power.

The four children were dumbfounded. No one told this in the main hall. Why was this?

"Actually, this is not a precedent, because after the end of Su Shi's period, Yang Wanli also wrote two poems, which can be understood by comparing them.

Su Shi used a painting of monk Huichong to write these two poems, so Yang Wanli also used Jingci Temple as a place to write the same political poem.

One of them is: When I came out of the West Lake, the moon was still shining, and the lotus flowers were blooming among the willows.The red fragrance world is a cool country, but after traveling to the southern mountain, it turns out to be the northern mountain.

It was Su Shi who told his good friend Lin Zifang that it would be over as soon as you leave the West Lake. Don't go out!If you don't go out, it will be a shortcut to the south. Are you going to go in the opposite direction?

The moon is still dying when we leave the West Lake, and then the bustling world turns to coolness, and the shortcut to the south is gone.

The second song is: After all, the scenery of West Lake is different from that of the four seasons in June.The lotus leaves touching the sky are infinitely green, and the lotus flowers reflecting the sun are uniquely red.

Tell your good friends that the West Lake is the best moment in your life. Unlike other places, you can have the opportunity to catch the sky here, because the moon comes first when you are near the water, and the flowers and trees in the sun are easy to spring.

It's over if you stay far away. It's better to stay close to His Majesty. The center of the court is the sun, and the flowers are so red!
These are all political poems and have nothing to do with nature. For example, in Nanjing right now, look how many officials are coming?How many officials have been released and broken willows?
In fact, I shouldn't tell you these things. The prince is the one who should learn from it. But it doesn't matter. Our Xiaqiu Village is a prince's village and we have to talk about politics. "

The librarian Wala Wala turned four poems that were said to describe scenery into political poems, but in the end he felt that they should not be said.

Four princes: "..."

"Li Zhang, we haven't thought about it before. When you tell us, we think it is like this. Otherwise, Su Dongpo and Yang Wanli are free? They just happen to be stuck writing poems at the critical moment?"

Zhu Xi agreed, there were not so many coincidences.

　today there is no
