Section 19 Servants
Liu Dutou took the people in the village to dig the pond, this job and digging the earth is much easier, only need to clean up the soil and weeds inside, and then re-pave the bluestone, not to mention working under the grass shed, as long as it can not rain, it is a good job.
The winding ditch, I don't know who designed it, Yun Zheng left a servant to work every thirty steps, he was already trying his best to straighten the ditch, he found that these laborers were as silent as wood, and the legendary stubborn people did not meet any of them, and took advantage of the rest to tell Liu Dutou about this doubt.
Liu Dutou sneered and said, "Who dare? This is to work for the army, those military masters don't reason with you, a knife in the neck, you can only listen to him reason, it is better to finish the work well, a little rain will not necessarily die, the knife to the neck will definitely die. ”
"Makes sense!" Yun Zheng cocked his thumb and praised Liu Du's first sentence, and then asked: "I heard that today's officials are well-known for their kindness, and they are most merciful to the people's suffering, and I also heard that every year as long as it snows in Bianliang City, Tokyo, the official family will distribute charcoal money to the people in the city, is this true?" ”
"It's true, boy, there aren't many things like this, it's okay in Bianliang City, it won't work in our place, first of all, we need money in the treasury, our treasury is empty and can run mice, the county lord is just the heart and powerless, not to mention that we are a border state, next to it is Qinfeng Road, where there is a war almost every year, as long as there is a war, we have to take out a large amount of money and food to support Qinfeng Road, so there is no way, hard life is hard." Liu Dutou smiled bitterly and squatted under the shed without making a sound.
It seemed that this sentence touched the sore spot of Liu Du's head, so Yun Zheng changed the topic and began to talk to him? K people hanging coffins, saying that they really want to see it? How the K-people put the coffin on the cliff. "Those? K people are full of food and support, when people are alive, they are not clothed and hungry, it is good to die, and it becomes expensive, no matter how poor the family is, they will sell their wives to the dead to buy a set of coffins, and then ask someone to send them to the cliff with a rope, this fucking is tossing the living alive, and if one dies, the whole family will be scattered. What's there to see. “
Liu Dutou didn't expect Yun Zheng to talk to him about this, and looked at Yun Ye in surprise. "In the eyes of others, it is just a simple matter of sending the dead and the coffin up, but in my opinion, this requires accurate calculations and a set of strict processes, which is a difficult thing to do, you think about it, a hundred-zhang high cliff, to put the person and the coffin halfway up the mountain, the dead and the coffin are not much to count him as three hundred catties, right? In addition, the weight of the two ropes is also fifty or sixty catties, and it takes a lot of skill to lift the weight of three or four hundred catties, or put down twenty or thirty zhang, and accurately place them on the wooden stakes that have been ordered in advance. So I'd love to see those who don't know a word? How the K-people did it. “
Yun Zheng didn't tell a lie about this, when he traveled here, he was very curious, although he saw the process of restoration by his descendants on TV, but he still used a modern sling, which is not counting, and it is very good to see it with his own eyes.
"It's stupid to read, what's so nice about this, it's easy for you to read, it's about it in prison? K-people, crush one to death with a sack at night, and you will be able to see it in three days. ”
Liu Dutou's words Yun Zheng's cold hair stood up, and he hurriedly shook his hand and said: "Then I still don't want to look at it, this is creating evil, if I really do this, I will guard against the top of my head when God thunders, so as not to be hacked to death." ”
"Fuck off, one? K people only, who is a human being, the man's family is lazy like a pig, all day around the fire pond to roast the fire fart and do nothing, the livelihood depends on the woman, give birth to a doll, the first thing is to sell it, and then change the wine to drink, the county lord has mercy on those women and women, strictly ordered not to sell people, the county's Dingkou has not grown for more than ten years, it is their disaster, the county is actually in the middle of the evaluation last year, how to promote such a political achievement, must be ruthlessly governed. In my opinion, killing a few will stop. ”
Liu Dutou is actually a very good person, in his opinion, if a man's family can't support his family and protect his wife, son and daughter, there is no need to live, although Yun Zheng also partially agrees with his opinion, but he still disagrees with the means of disposal.
"Yunda, you also have a few dollars now, and you don't feel at ease when your brother is home alone, so let's do it, you might as well spend some money to buy a maid, let her take care of your brother, with your heart, this is doing good deeds, and you can also save a good girl from the sea of suffering." What do you think? ”
Yun Zheng jumped up all of a sudden, and said to Liu Dutou in horror: "You still spare me, it's only been a few days since you were full, and you have to be a master?" Looking for a maid? What's the matter with you, you always stuff me with women, and my little brother is just fourteen years old this year. ”
Liu Dutou said with a lewd smile: "Fourteen years old can already support the family, he is a man, dragging a three or four-year-old brother to live a hundred times stronger than these killings, he is well fed and warmly clothed, his younger brother is white and fat, what is the matter with buying a woman, sue you, brother, I have a son when I am fourteen years old." There is a lack of a woman in your family now, well, a person who does laundry and cooking, look at your clothes, the stitches on the top are too embarrassing. ”
"The law of the Great Song Dynasty stipulates that a woman who sells herself as a maidservant needs to be paid a monthly salary, and after five years, she will return home, and I can't afford it now." It is indeed very good to have such a person, Yun Zheng is also a little moved, but when he thinks of the law of the Great Song Dynasty, raising a maidservant girl is a very expensive thing, and he has no conditions now.
Liu Du, who was drinking water, squirted out the first sip of water, coughed for a long time before he adjusted his breath, stroked his chest and asked Yun Zheng: "Are you talking about the laws of the Great Song Dynasty?" Why didn't I ever know, brother? People are bought by you, that is, your people, you like it and raise it at home, and if you don't like it, you sell it, who said that you have to pay every month? ”
Yun Zheng couldn't tell Lao Liu that he knew these things from historical records, wasn't that what it looked like?
Liu Dutou pulled Yun Zheng and got into the ox cart, those laborers didn't have to worry about their own work, the two of them arrived at Dousha Pass after a while, Lao Liu yelled at the ox cart and turned into the cross street, Yun Zheng had never been to that place. It was the place where the military prostitutes of Doushaguan were, and it belonged to the red light district, and he was not interested in looking at it.
Along the way, countless women dressed in black or flowered clothes greeted Liu Dutou hard, and it seemed that this guy was a frequent visitor here.
