Daming daddy

Chapter 4
After a while, the common people took out all the good things they could get out of their homes.However, in Wei Ming's view, it was still a bit too shabby.But after thinking about it, I understand.I just talked to the buddy of Ye Lixiang.It is now June 1619.But still very cold.At the end of Ming Dynasty, the fifth Little Ice Age entered, and the whole earth was colder than usual.It is estimated that in a few years, it will only get colder.Last year, the Liao pay had already been levied.Moreover, after the implementation of the one-whip law, the lives of the people of Shaanxi will be difficult.China is not a big silver producing country.And the hard currency is silver.Silver was imported from the southeast, and then passed through the capital city to circulate throughout the country.However, the amount of silver that can be obtained in Shaanxi is very small.After all, the Suzhou-Hangzhou area has already started a systematic textile industry, and the south is also a place where commerce is developed.A lot of silver was used there.And what about Shaanxi?There is a void in this regard.A whip law also requires payment of silver.What if there is no silver?Even with a bumper harvest, this year is still difficult.Even if someone came to collect grain and wanted to turn the grain into cash, it would not be an easy task.After all, at the end of the Ming Dynasty, the number of silver imports decreased greatly, and the importance of silver was immediately reflected.The person with silver is the uncle.Even if people ask for a lot of money, the common people don't even have a chance to pay back the money.Therefore, even in a bumper harvest year, in Shaanxi, there will still be the phenomenon of husbands and wives selling children.Being able to take out these things to treat myself is already worthy of myself.If you come a few years later, it is estimated that it will be difficult to be eaten directly.After all, the story of cannibalism is not just groundless.

"Thank you, everyone, thank you." Originally, Wei Ming wanted to salute everyone, but after thinking about the previous scene, he resolutely dismissed this idea.If a large group of people were kneeling on the ground again, Wei Ming was really afraid that his life would be shortened.So he arched his hands, took two cornbreads, and signaled everyone to take everything back.Some people even killed the chickens.Why.If I knew it earlier, I wouldn't let everyone prepare meals for themselves.This is simply committing a crime!These days, people can't even eat enough, and having a chicken at home is considered a luxury.

However, Wei Ming's kindness did not make everyone accept it.

"God, are you still blaming us? We really know we are wrong. Please don't punish us again. Please!" The old man took the lead and knelt down again, and the others followed suit down.Wei Ming looked at it, feeling sore in his heart.In the last years of the Ming Dynasty, peasant uprisings from all walks of life continued, and it was not unreasonable.The Tartars in the northeast did not stop for a moment.I wake up every day to have something happen.And entering the fifth Little Ice Age, the winter is deadly cold, and it snows whenever there is nothing to do.Don't even think about being warm in summer. There are often times when there are thousands of miles of bare land and no harvest.Just like that, how do people live?Under the internal and external troubles of the Ming Dynasty, no one lived comfortably from the emperor to the ordinary people.

"Everyone, get up. I will definitely not send God's punishment! I will definitely not!" Wei Ming's eyes were filled with tears, and he suddenly felt that the two cornbreads in his hand weighed a thousand catties.What a simple people ah.Why torture them like this?Did they do something wrong?People like this, if they hadn't really been forced to nowhere, who would rebel?Look at what they wear, and look at what they eat.This is still in the city of Xi'an, what about outside?What is the situation?Wei Ming didn't want to think about it, and he didn't dare to think about it.I suddenly feel that I have come to this world, should I do something?Now that I have come here, if I don't do something, I am really sorry for my conscience!
"May the gods give us a good harvest next year!" Someone shouted first, and the people kowtowed again, shouting in unison.Wei Ming shook his head, he really wanted to give them a good harvest next year.However, in my memory, there will be a huge disaster in the Yangzhou area next year, and the bark and other things will be eaten due to lack of food.If there is a good harvest next year, why is there such a situation in Yangzhou and other places?Hey, the fifth Little Ice Age brought the entire Ming Dynasty into trouble.It is not an exaggeration to say that the sky is about to perish.In order to destroy Ming Dynasty, God even brought in the fifth Little Ice Age, which can be described as painstaking.

"Everyone get up. I believe that through the hard work of the big guys, next year will definitely be a good harvest!" Wei Ming himself said without confidence.How to continue the Ming Dynasty will be a difficult problem for future generations, let alone now.Wei Ming was somewhat interested in the history of the Ming Dynasty in his previous life.Every time I read that the Eight Banners cavalry entered the pass and broke through the mountains and rivers of the Central Plains, I felt a heart-piercing pain.If Daming can continue, will there be a phenomenon of inner sage and outer king? Wei Ming is not sure, but it will always be better than after the Tartars occupy it?Look at how they ruled the whole of China in the next few hundred years, hundreds of years behind the world.In other words, since they occupied China, they have been standing still, or even retreating.This may be the eternal pain in the hearts of the entire Chinese people.Even in the Ming Dynasty, the island country to the east was definitely not China's hands.Which of the three major Wanli signs didn't beat those dwarfs to pieces?Why would he be bullied like that hundreds of years later by those guys who don't even know what their surname is!
"Thank God! Hurry up, kowtow to the god, thank you god!" Under the leadership of the old man, more and more people ran over and knelt on the ground to kowtow to Wei Ming.It's just because of the empty promise that Wei Ming said has no actual basis at all.

"Hey, how about hanging out with me in the future?" Wei Ming suddenly turned his head and said to the buddy.He couldn't bear the atmosphere here.There are even plans to leave Xi'an.If there is another disaster next year, this group of ordinary people can really tear themselves apart.When they were forced to do nothing, they even dared to do such a risky and low-reward job as rebellion. What else would they not dare to do?
"God, you, what did you say?" Li Niu wondered if he heard it wrong.The god actually let me hang around with him in the future?Does happiness come so suddenly?How many virtues my ancestors have accumulated for generations to allow me to have such an opportunity!

"I'll let you hang out with me. Whether you like it or not, it doesn't matter. I'm leaving." Wei Ming didn't want to follow him here to talk nonsense.From the first time he saw Li Niu, Wei Ming felt that this guy was a villain.Those who bully the weak and fear the hard.If it wasn't for this guy's sudden change of sex, Wei Ming wouldn't bother to pay attention to him.

"Of course I would, thank you..." Wei Ming covered Li Niu's mouth before he finished speaking.

"Stop chattering, can't you keep a low profile? Hurry up, leave this place quickly." Wei Ming said in Li Niu's ear.If the common people hear this, is it okay?It is estimated that there must be a reinforced group of people who will follow him.That's okay?What do you use to support others?I still ate this meal and didn't finish it.

"Okay, okay, low-key, low-key." Li Niu is also a quick-eyed person.You can tell what Wei Ming means at a glance.Glancing secretly at the common people who were still kneeling, he followed Wei Ming into an alley on tiptoe.With one crutch or two, there is no one.When the common people came to their senses, where was Wei Ming?Although the common people were a little unwilling, they had no choice but to go home resentfully.What I encountered today was a bit miraculous, which made the major tea houses and theaters in Xi'an city have talk for a long time afterwards.It was even made into a drama later and was widely sung.
