Chapter 787

Only then did Yang Chen realize that the owner of this stall is called Yan Lao Liu!

Listening to the words of these scholars, Yan Laoliu's face instantly turned pale. He lowered his head, smiled and kept saluting, "Qiu Sheng, a few days ago, I just taught ten taels of silver. Doesn't it mean that I can continue to stay here?" Is there a deal?"

Among the crowd, there came out a scholar with a jade-like face, an elegant demeanor, and a very refined manner. He should be Qiu Sheng in Yan Lao Liu's mouth.

Yang Chen squinted his eyes, and saw that Qiu Sheng's head had a straight line of talent, above the talent, there was a ray of spiritual light, obviously he was also a scholar who understood the book.

It's just that his qi and blood are floating, his spirit is weak, and his thoughts are full of fatigue. He has obviously lost a lot of yang energy, and his body is very weak.

"You are young and do not know how to control yourself. When you are older, you must be plagued by many diseases."

After Yang Chen saw it, he shook his head and didn't intend to pay attention to it.

When Qiusheng heard Yan Lao Liu's words, it seemed as if he had been greatly humiliated, "Yan Lao Liu, what do you mean by that? What happened a few days ago was a few days ago. Ten taels of silver a few days ago It still allows you to continue setting up a stall here, but not now."

"If you want to continue to set up a stall here, you have to deal with many people. Without 100 taels, you can't do this at all."

"My dignified scholar, who is upright, can still deceive a grass weed like you?"

"Do you have money? If you have, hand it in as soon as possible. If you don't have it, pack up the stall and get out. Otherwise, when I arrive at the government, it's not just a fine. Your family will have to go to the prison in the capital to eat." A cell for a few days."

"You should know that once you enter the prison, even if you don't die, you will have to peel off your skin. Bankruptcy is easy."

The yamen opens to the south, so don't come in if you have a reason and no money.

Once entering the yamen, a meal of the killing stick is indispensable. If money is not used, just this killing stick can kill half of a person's life.

As for the lawsuits, there are many rules and no money is spent everywhere. Since ancient times, litigation has been a bottomless pit. Without money to fill it, it is impossible to win the lawsuit.

What's more, it was a group of scholars who sued Yan Lao Liu's stall, which affected the image of the capital of the Zhou Dynasty. Once such a thing got involved in the yamen, the officials would 100% favor the scholars.

Because the officials are all scholars, and these scholars are also the future officials, so they are naturally protected by officials.

Yan Lao Liu trembled when Qiu Sheng said this, "Mr. Qiu, I really don't mean anything special, but you know that I'm just a small business here, and I can't make much money in a month. After paying ten taels of silver in a few days, I almost emptied my family."

"As for the 100 taels, even if you kill my family, Yan Lao Liu, you won't be able to get that much money."

"For me to pay so much money all at once is simply forcing me to my death."

"You are a scholar, magnanimous, compassionate, and please let me go!"

Only then did Qiusheng say, "Yan Lao Liu, it's not that I won't help you. I'm not good at ruining your family. It's just that it's the government's rules. Even if I'm a scholar, I can avoid my own rules. Money, but I can't help you avoid this money, unless you and I are a family, otherwise, even if I want to help you, I can't do anything."

"This time, if you hand in 100 taels, don't open the can of soup. Otherwise, various fines will come one after another, and you will definitely go bankrupt."

Yan Laoliu suddenly became confused.

"family?"

"How could this be a family? Although we are fellow villagers, we have nothing to do with each other, let alone a family."

"This time, what should I do? I also ask Mr. Qiu to be merciful and think of a way for me. I know that Mr. Qiu, with your hands and eyes, must have a way."

As he spoke, he took some money and secretly handed it to Qiusheng.

With a push of Qiu Sheng's hand, he pushed out the money that Yan Lao Liu had stuffed in, "Yan Lao Liu, who do you think I am Qiu Sheng? the benefits of."

"Scholars like me, who have read the books of sages and sages, have always shared the worries of the emperor and the people. How can we search for the people's fat and anointing? That is something only corrupt officials will do."

Yan Lao Liu bowed his head and smiled apologetically, "Yes, yes, Mr. Qiu has a clean sleeve and is upright. He is a man of high moral character. It is the little old man who made a mistake. Please forgive me, forgive me."

Qiu Shui was upright and awe-inspiring, "It's just this once, next time, don't blame me for not being sympathetic."

"It's just that you also know that as a scholar, I can protect my own people, but I can't protect outsiders. If I want to protect you, the only way to protect you is to make you mine. This is not easy."

Yan Lao Liu said, "Yes, Mr. Qiu, what can I do?"

Qiu Shui hesitated and said nothing, a scholar beside him had already stepped forward, stared at Yan Lao Liu, and said proudly, "Isn't this method right in front of us?"

"It's very simple. You signed the slave status. From then on, you say that Lao Liu's family is the servants of the Qiu family. If your daughter becomes Mr. Qiu's concubine, the government will look at it for the sake of the Qiu family." , of course I won’t bother you again.”

"You know, the Qiu family is a wealthy family in Yujing City, so many people want to become servants of the Qiu family but they can't get it. Yan Lao Liu, if you didn't give birth to a beautiful daughter, you wouldn't be able to get such great benefits. "

When Yan Lao Liu heard this, he trembled out of breath, he was not a fool, at this moment, he naturally knew why Qiu Sheng and his group came here.

This Qiusheng is simply a jackal who eats people and doesn't spit out his bones. Not only does he want his own business, so that he can work for him, not to mention earning money to support his family, he also wants to get his precious daughter away as a Concubine.

To know!
In the Great Zhou Dynasty, servants, concubines and the like had a very low status. They were slaves for one day and for the rest of their lives. Even if they were beaten to death by the master's family, they would not break the law.

As for concubines, the master can give their concubines to others at will. They are first-class servants and have no status. Only a little bit.

Concubine Ji, but she is also a woman, and a woman is treated as a donkey by the man she loves. She is hated and humiliated, it is really lifeless!
Taking a concubine was a common practice of ancient literati, which is beyond reproach; however, concubines are also human beings, and the treatment of concubines should not be compared with that of regular wives, but the difference should not be too great. This view is probably not an exaggeration?

However, the scholars in Dazhou have many concubines in their lives, and their romantic affairs emerge in endlessly, and their attitude towards these concubines is basically ruthless and unintentional, completely like the patriarchal system, and they only regard them as personal belongings.
