Chapter 80: Redistribution of Wealth

"Professor Wen, I'm here in Yingzhou, I'm going to be a host tonight, I'm going to wash the dust for the professor, is the professor willing to give this thin noodle to the contemptible people?" Jiao Huang smiled and had a very friendly attitude.

Lu Ning smiled: "This, it won't be too troublesome, right?" ”

"Professor Wen agreed?!" Jiao Huang was immediately overjoyed, and said in a loud voice: "Okay, good, Professor Wen seems to be busy with a lot of official business, so don't bother the contemptible people, so go back and prepare, when the professor goes down, the carriage outside will arrive." ”

A bunch of people who followed him were also happy on all sides, Jiao Huang bowed his hand to leave, and others were also very polite, some bowed, and said goodbye to Lu Ning, and the words probably meant that they would serve the school order and eat wine at night.

Looking at the backs of these people, Lu Ning was a little inexplicable, he didn't have anything worth bribing about his own order, right? Will these people come to the dust washing feast tonight? Is he a small eight-grade official, or a poor petty official with an education mouth, with such a big face? They all seem to be either officials or wealthy businessmen.

Suddenly, Lu Ning understood, after all, he hadn't been in this role for a long time, so his head turned a little slowly.

The old assistant teacher who was light and breezy said without being salty or indifferent: "Tonight, the school order is going to accept a lot of disciples." ”

Lu Ning smiled, sure enough, as he thought, he came to Yingzhou to implement the new school order, these local gentry are just to find a way out for the children of the family, so they are very humble in front of themselves, a small eight-rank official who has no real power.

Speaking of which, this Jiao Huang, the official voice is okay, but his head may be too bright, so his main business is business, and he is one of the big businessmen in Yingzhou, which is also the reason why he is idle, and according to the new policy of this dynasty, if he wants to continue to do business, he will resign.

It's summer, it's around five o'clock, and the sun is still hanging in the west.

The carriage sent by Jiao Huang was really waiting in front of the gate of the school, and Lu Ning had already given a handyman a few pennies to the school hall at noon, so that he went to the Wenjia gouache shop to send a letter to eat dinner outside, and then got into the carriage.

The school hall is in the west of the city, but the carriage goes further west, but it is on the bank of the West Lake.

This Yingzhou West Lake, the blue waves are more than ten miles, the embankment is green and willowy, the pavilions and pavilions in the middle of the lake in the distance are like mirages, and there are more pink lotus flowers that are blue in the lake fluttering in the wind, and the scenery is extremely beautiful.

Today's Yingzhou West Lake, the fame is not weaker than the Hangzhou West Lake, the former dynasty famous poems are particularly many, and then there are Su Shi, Ouyang Xiu highly praised, Ouyang Xiu even chose this place as a place to retire.

However, later the Jin soldiers invaded, the Song Dynasty dug up the Yellow River dam to resist the Jin, the Yellow River seized the Huai, the area of the West Lake in Yingzhou was greatly reduced, and then to the Republic of China in later generations, coincidentally bombed the Yellow River dam to engage in the so-called anti-Japanese, and the West Lake in Yingzhou was finally flattened, and then to later generations, but it was to be repaired manually, and it was no longer beautiful today.

……

There are several exquisite painting boats on the shore of the West Lake, although the sun has not yet set, you can imagine how extravagant the lights of the painting boats are at night.

Jiao Huang and other more than a dozen official gentry, in front of the most magnificent painting boat to greet each other, at this time have reported their names and surnames, there are two serious state bureau bosses, one is the meritorious to join the army, the other is the judicial army, according to the Qi law official system, are the six grade officials, and there are patrol inspectors of the inspection department, although they are eight grade officials, but the management of all the knife in the state city is fast, but it is no different from the later generations of public security chiefs.

Except for these three serious officialdoms in Yingzhou City, the rest of them are all local gentry, and three of them donated to the outside of the country.

Qi official system, the staff of the outside Lang is a very special identity, set as "regarded as the same as the nine products", but not a real official, not only not only is there no such thing, the gentry also have to use real money to donate, the quota is 500 yuan, but in the future, every year to renew the donation, the annual donation is 100 yuan, if not renewed, the identity of the member of the outside Lang will be deprived, of course, after the age of 60, you can get the identity of the outside Lang for life.

Moreover, there is a harsh condition for donors, that is, 100 households are required to be guaranteed, that is, the neighbors must have 100 households agree according to their fingerprints before they can donate, otherwise they will not be eligible, including annual renewal.

The advantage of donating a wailang is that once a wailang violates the law, the case file needs to be sent to Dali Temple and reported to the Holy Son of Heaven, and after verification, he will be deprived of his identity as a wailang, and he can be convicted later.

Moreover, if a foreigner violates the law, he will be punished by one degree.

Although in fact, Dali Temple will not talk about any feelings for the sake of outsiders and non-members, and it is difficult to say whether it is really verified or not.

However, the identity of "Wailang" was immediately sought after by the gentry, and there was even no shortage of businessmen whose annual income was worth 100 or so long, but they also wanted to donate a foreigner.

Lu Ning felt that the effect was a bit too much, in this era, businessmen are too eager for a sense of identity, and face is too important, as long as they are given a layer of skin, they feel that their identity is different from now on, and even the crime can be heard by the sky, it is more important than anything else.

For Lu Ning, like taxation, this is also the secondary redistribution of private wealth, just in a short period of time, before he came to Yingzhou, the state treasury only "gentry donation" income, more than 100,000 yuan, "gentry donation" is earmarked, must be used for people's livelihood projects, mainly to control the river.

Of course, Lu Ning has a deeper consideration, why can't the conditions of 100 households improve the national consciousness of the people of Lishu? Let them know that they actually have the right to participate in the major affairs of this country, and even the gentry who they are in awe of on weekdays have times when they are supervised and restrained in the etiquette system of this dynasty.

In this way, the cohesion of the dynasty to the people at the bottom, and the sense of identity of the people at the bottom will be higher and higher.

There is also a little added benefit, the gentry will also have some scruples when they act in the countryside in the future.

Of course, even if the 100 households are only guaranteed to become a certain form, or even become a gentry to buy tickets, the welfare of the 100 neighbors is nothing, just inculcate the consciousness.

Even if in the end it's just an opportunity to create a big red envelope benefit for civilians every year, it's not bad, isn't it?

……

Thinking about it, Lu Ning entered the painting boat under the humility of Jiao Huang and other official gentry, and then he was stunned.

This painting boat even has a stage.

It is all the land of Huaibei, and some of the plays in the East China Sea seem to have been passed on, but today, it seems that there is no drama troupe, after all, if you want to get down to business, you can't keep making noise.

Under the stage, most of the tables and stools have been removed, leaving only three round tables, the main table in the middle is larger, and the accompanying tables on both sides are smaller.

Jiao Huang and the gentry humbled again, and Lu Ning made the main table in the middle, accompanied by Jiao Huang, Li Shenjun, Wang Shenjun, Mao Inspection, Wang Yuanwai, Gao Yuanwai, and Zhang Yuanwai, but next to each person, there was a vacant seat, and it was not a serious high seat, but a soft pier slightly lower than the main chair.

After the squire at the other two tables sat down, Jiao Huang clapped his hands.

Although it has been introduced that this painting boat is operated by Zhang Yuanwai's concubine, Jiao Huang has become the master.

From the side door of the main hall of the painting boat, immediately Yuguan walked out of a line of warblers and swallows, each hired Ting, with a beautiful posture, a row came to the main table, Yingying Wanfu, crisp and neat singing: "Officials, the slaves are polite!" ”

Needless to say, these are naturally the fairies of this painting boat.

Nowadays, fairyland is used as a metaphor for prostitution, and fairies refer to prostitutes.
