People in the Ming Dynasty are lawless

Chapter 586 The old man began to doubt his life!
These people were also a little confused by what Wang Dahai said.

To be honest, they had never thought that they didn't even have this qualification. They always thought that they were the local bosses in Mandala City.

Even if you people from the Ming Dynasty come here, you have to give us some face, right?

But I didn't expect this to be the result.

This really made them a little overwhelmed.

Especially since Wang Dahai has just made it very clear, although you guys are the local bosses here, to our Ming Dynasty, you are not as important as you think.

Although there were a few people who were very dissatisfied, they seemed to have no choice but to accept their fate when seeing the situation before them.

Because Wang Dahai and Liu Baihu said it very clearly.

Even if people from the Ming Dynasty come here in the future, they will definitely be more noble people. They will not be like you who just fight for power and profit here.

When they heard this, many locals lowered their heads.

To be honest, why are they all so eager for that position?

I even thought that if everyone here could become an official, it would be more convenient for us locals.

The convenience they think of is, of course, the convenience of making money from it.

When they thought of this, many people were still expecting something, but immediately lowered their heads.

Because they thought of a very serious problem.

That is because the Ming Dynasty was so cruel and ruthless to its own people.

There was no chance for them to feel disgusted.

Would that in turn give myself and others a chance?
This will definitely not happen. After all, if there are any good things, they will definitely be kept by our own people.

This is the best solution these people can think of.

Because they themselves are such people, they think that people like us are risking our lives just to become officials and to make more money.

Is there anyone in the world who is not greedy for money and lustful?
There is only one thought in their minds, that is, if someone becomes an official, he must not be a good person.

Because there seem to be no good officials in their Mandala City.

So they subconsciously thought that even people from the Ming Dynasty would be like this.

We have never thought about being a good official, but can you, who came from the Ming Dynasty, be exempt from this?
Probably not.

But I didn't expect Captain Liu to say something like this directly.

Captain Liu even said: "You don't have to think too much, the officials who can come here from our Ming Dynasty must be honest.

I know that even ordinary people among you, when you hear the word "being an official", must be thinking in your heart, are there any good officials in the world?

You must be thinking that even if someone comes from our Ming Dynasty, they are definitely not good people."

After hearing this, the common people really thought so.

In their minds, there are no good officials in the world, and being an official would be meaningless if you don't engage in corruption and bribery.

Even if it is my own children and grandchildren, if I become a manager, I must educate them in this way.

But unexpectedly, this was not the case in the Ming Dynasty.

Just as someone said just now, there was indeed a lot of corruption before our Ming Dynasty.

We also admit that before the emperor of our Ming Dynasty came to rule, officials seemed to have the same idea.

They only want to put all the money into their own pockets.

This is the only way to satisfy their perverted desires.

But now it is different. After some governance, our officials have gradually become honest officials.

Although there will always be corrupt people everywhere, at least we are doing pretty well now.

They are not like the officials here, who, seeing money, act as if it is something special and rush to get promoted desperately.

We are different.

Our officials once had such moral character.

But after the emperor of our Ming Dynasty took over the government, officials no longer dared to embezzle money at will.

In this way, our officials are actually very clean.

This is especially true after our Duke reformed the code of compilation.

Captain Liu looked at the old man.

The old man was so angry that he was puffing his beard and glaring.

I guess I never expected that these two young people would be so disrespectful.

And the words he said were like knives. There was no point in wasting time talking to him.

He really didn't expect that there would be such a day.

You have to know that this old man's status is higher than many scholars. Ordinary scholars can only stay in the landlords' mansions and help the landlords with advice.

But no one knew the old man’s true identity. He used to be an official in Mandala City.

But the reason why he is no longer an official is that he was dismissed more than 20 years ago.

The reason for his dismissal was not because of the people's reports, but because he himself offended the officials above him.

He offended the officials above him not because he was upright, but because he did not satisfy them in the distribution of the benefits of corruption.

Of course, people would not let him go, so they found an excuse to dismiss him.

It is because of this relationship that he has always been brooding over it.

He always felt that his talents were seriously underestimated.

I have always felt that talents like me should be able to shine anywhere.

Therefore, he is more cunning than ordinary people or scholars.

It is precisely because of these considerations that he was able to say something so eye-opening in his words just now.

Because in his eyes, I am now like a piece of unpolished jade, and it is worth it for more people to see my shining side.

But what he didn't expect was that no one seemed to really take him seriously.

Even the locals here don't remember him because he stopped being a leader 20 years ago.

Even though the human-machine is getting old, it will not give up its desire easily.

On the contrary, after so many years, they have repeatedly brought out this unwillingness and aired it out.

Repeatedly use various statements to prove that he was never wrong.

But now no one seems to care about him. The old man also wants to find some sense of existence.

So he took the initiative to stand up and say to Captain Liu and Wang Dahai, I see the unfairness in your treatment of this matter.

I must do this for our Mandala City, no, for all of us, the people of Sanfuqi and the scholars, to see clearly that the Ming Dynasty does not seem to really treat us sincerely.

If this kind of propaganda really spread, it would be unfavorable to the Ming Dynasty.

That's why they can talk like this.

But he didn't expect that Captain Liu and Wang Dahai didn't seem to take him seriously at all. Even though he knew that this old guy was trying to find a sense of presence in front of them in an almost rogue way, he still failed.

Wang Dahai even said: "So the problem you are worried about will never happen. People in our Ming Dynasty who are really determined to come here will never be tempted by a little money or a little privilege.

We admit that our people will definitely have some privileges if they come here, but it is definitely not what you think, because you people have no integrity at all."

When this was said, many people present lowered their heads.

When it comes to honesty, they really have no chance to say anything. After all, when they first arrived here, they sent out some people from the underworld to have a good talk with the people in Mandala City about this matter.

I hope that you can see that the Ming Dynasty's reforms can bring you benefits, so you will not cause trouble. However, I didn't expect that you guys agreed to it at the beginning.

In the end, you had to fight directly with the Ming Dynasty's dispatched troops. Although you were defeated quickly, this kind of thing still makes us very unhappy.

That's why Wang Dahai said that you guys have no integrity at all.

He clearly promised to cooperate with the gangsters we sent over, but he went back on his word as soon as they got here.

The people from Jianghu standing by were deeply touched when they heard this.

"I really don't know what to say to you guys. Are the reforms of the Ming Dynasty not better than the exploitation of you by the landlords before?"

"That's right. We, the people of Jianghu, feel it more deeply than you do. Can't you see what the imperial court has become now? Why are you still cheering for them? Are you fools?"

"I think they are not fools but they are just hoping for the best."

After hearing what the Jianghu people said, many people felt embarrassed.

These people in the underworld really guessed it right. In fact, these people just have a lot of luck.

Everyone believed that even if the Ming Dynasty wanted to kill people, they would definitely kill the dignitaries first and it had nothing to do with us, so how they made trouble was their business and had nothing to do with us.

But I didn't expect that they seemed to be really going to do something big, ready to let everyone see that our Ming Dynasty is no pushover.

Captain Liu looked at the old man and said, "Are you satisfied with our answer now? It is true that a group of officials from our Ming Dynasty will come here, but our officials never come here to enjoy themselves.

Tell me the truth, what do you have here that's worth our people staying here?

There is nothing we want except that you guys understand that we will make this place a paradise soon in the future.

But our people are not here to enjoy it all, our people are here to make it better. "

Then Wang Dahai looked at the common people and scholars standing nearby and said, "Okay, you don't have to hide anymore. We said that our purpose of coming here is very simple, just a deal, but you guys just won't cooperate with us.

But there is no need to force us. We will do what we say. We can make those who are willing to cooperate with our Ming Dynasty live a good life.

It can even make them the best of the best, but for those who are unwilling to follow the Ming Dynasty, how you live in the future is up to you."

After he finished speaking, he said to the old man: "Old man, now you know what we are going to do, right? Go away, there is no place for you here."

According to the laws of the Ming Dynasty, if you dare to question the decision of the court, even if you are right and have no official title, you will still be subject to some criminal law. This article is mainly to prevent some unruly people from thinking that they are very smart and casually following the court's national policies.

But today, I don’t know if they were in a better mood, they didn’t say much to the old man, but waved their hands to drive him away.

The old man didn't seem to give up at this time, "I just want to know if your Ming Dynasty can really do all this?"

Hearing that the old man still had so many doubts, Wang Dahai patiently explained to him: "No matter whether we in the Ming Dynasty can reform after coming here, it will be much better than your current situation.

Is that what you care about? I don’t think so.”

Of course he had a reason for saying this.

These guys didn't seem to understand one thing at all, which was that the Ming Dynasty didn't need to explain anything to them.

It’s just that the Ming army is more merciful now.

The old man finally gave up.

He knew that in this debate, he could be defeated with just a few words.

He originally thought he was a very smart person.

Even at this age, as long as you are willing to work hard, you can get the results you want.

But what I didn’t expect was that it seemed like no one cared about these things at all.

They even directly denied his weird ideas.

Moreover, it taught him directly what pattern means.

Even though I made a bet with him before, saying that he would be punished if he lost.

But now, even though the old man has lost, the Ming army officers don't seem to really want to do anything to him.

That's what adults have.

The old man left in a daze.

Just like he left here twenty years ago.

Yes, he was the city lord's deputy twenty years ago.

Manages all taxes in Mandala City.

He was rich and even powerful then, but now he has become like this.

In fact, he could have spent his old age in peace, but he was unwilling to do so.

He wanted to climb to that height again.

When he came here, he heard people from the Ming Dynasty say that the local people here might be reused in the future.

He felt he had a chance.

He even thought at one point that as long as he won the debate here, he would be able to get good results.

But what he didn't expect was that it seemed that the Ming Dynasty didn't want to do anything to him at all.

At one point, it even made the old man doubt his life.

Why is it that all the life experience I have gained over the past few decades has no effect at all on these two young people, Liu Baihu and Wang Dahai?

Are the things of the Central Plains Dynasty really better than those of this small island country?
He was actually very unconvinced.

But now he had to admit defeat.

Because he found that he really couldn't...
