Chapter 374: Jealousy and Hatred
"However, this is not benevolence, but indiscriminate benevolence, I know, there is an old mother, the son was exiled overseas because of murder, and such an old mother was also raised, and it was a meal with meat, which makes people embarrassed, don't hide from everyone's jokes, the younger brother is ready to wait for when to open Enke in the imperial capital, but he can't afford to eat meat, so he can only be so reluctant, this court treats scholars poorly, it is obvious, and if the villain is not unscrupulous in the future, he should make the wife and daughter of the villain miserable, It shows the cycle of heavenly principles. ”
When Zheng Sen saw it, he was very discriminated against in his heart, but he knew that this was the time to buy people's hearts, and said: "The younger brother is not talented, and he is willing to subsidize Mr. 20 taels of silver, with a strong momentum, and with a full name." ”
"Mr. Zheng is noble!"
Zheng Sen saw that his twenty taels were applauded by the whole house, and many scholars wanted to come over for help, so he nodded, so he said, "If you have any ideas, you can speak freely." ”
"In the old Ningxu Linshi in Xiahunan, when I arrived in the imperial capital, there was one thing that was incredible, that is, the imperial capital abolished kneeling and worshipping, which is not a good thing, the dignity and humility are reversed, there is no etiquette, this matter must be talked about."
"Yes, the big boss is becoming more and more arrogant, but he can't be punished with the old example, which is really unacceptable."
Xu Linshi saw that many people responded, and he was even more proud, and said: "There is no fame in the new court, and it is just a small people, but I am willing to kneel down when I see the officials, so that the officials can be like officials, so that the officials have official authority, official etiquette, and official spirit. The officials all want the people to kneel down in their hearts, not to let the people kneel, let their hearts and wills kneel, in this way, in essence, the people still kneel, but the officials do not pay attention to official authority, do not cultivate official etiquette, and do not maintain official morale, so the officials have no responsibility. If you don't call the officials your parents, you won't love the people like children, and you won't be a model for the people......"
"Yes, what Xu Caizi said is extremely true!"
"Insight, insight, chaos in the imperial capital, the first thing is that there is no dignity and humility, resulting in sluts running rampant in the world, but we and other beloved people can only huddle indoors, the root is like this!" A scholar who was robbed of a girl in a brothel by an illiterate rich merchant on the first night of the night remembered those past and hated it with great hatred.
"Let the official be like an official, the common people kneel to the official, the subordinate knees to the superior, there are many benefits, you kneel to the official, the official is the master, there is the corresponding official authority, official etiquette, official spirit, how can the official not have these? Without that, you're willing to be indecent. Those who are in office must be upper. The upper class has the standard of the upper class, for example, since ancient times, being an official is the biggest, and the big one is not small, so the official is ashamed to compete with the people for profit, this kneeling, the power is locked in a cage, what is not satisfied? As a common people, how good it is to have such an official. Because officials want to emphasize official authority, official etiquette, and official morale, and want to gain the respect and admiration of the people, they are very unfree, and the common people are very free. ”
Zheng Sen nodded, there are still characters in this imperial capital, and he also knows that some imperial officials don't kneel down to the people and don't say anything, but they still feel in their stomachs that they have finally become a master, but they can't enjoy the pleasure of oppressing other humans as inferior people, and they are really unhappy.
Zheng Sen said: "A good resumption of kneeling, it is really insightful, I don't kneel if I Chinese have knees, what's the use, once Brother Xu finishes writing this article, I will definitely read it...... Of course, we should focus on the good words of the elders, although the elders are cultivating in the overseas immortal mountains, how can they not have seven emotions and six desires, and it is also human nature to have the idea of dignity and humility as a nobleman, as for what everyone is equal, it is even more ridiculous, how can the Venerable Master be equal to the next person? ”
When Xu Linshi heard the word "pen fee", he was already as excited as a pug, and said, "Yes, yes, you have to honor the elders first." ”
Others were also eager to try, and some people immediately replied: "In Xia Jiangqing, I once visited Xu Anyou, the son of Xu Guangqi Pavilion, in Songjiang Mansion, and listened to him talk about the politics of the West, which has the so-called state religion, and we can ask the elders to come forward from now on and establish Confucianism as the state religion." ”
The word state religion is a completely imported product, others are naturally ignorant, many people asked, but Jiang Qing said proudly: "In today's world, there is no real Son of Heaven, the people are panicked, we must revive Confucianism as the state religion in an all-round way, and the revival of Confucianism is the top priority to revive the prestige of the gentry." ”
Someone asked eagerly, "How do you proceed?" ”
"Set up three courts, first set up the National Sports Institute, the National Sports Institute will be the descendants of Confucius, the descendants of Yan Yuan, the descendants of Zeng Shen, the descendants of Meng Ke, the descendants of Zhu Xi are all invited, the descendants of these sages are on behalf of the way of heaven to govern the country, by the Yan Sheng Gong hereditary speaker, the members of the National Sports Yuan are appointed by the Yan Sheng Gong personally, is the center of the Confucian country, is the supreme place of the world, and the elders hold the power, naturally the elders will be in the middle, as now, and there is a court, called the Tong Confucian Academy, this Tong Confucian Yuan only accepts the famous folk Confucianism, except for the well-educated, no one else is allowed to enter, and there is the imperial capital through the Confucian Academy, and there are also places through the Confucian Academy, up and down. ”
"Isn't that the government?"
Jiang Qing said: "The government is just in charge of tax collection and patrol arrests, and this Confucian Academy, what it does is the daily affairs of the common people, the virtue of daily education, every ten years, those ordinary people have to go to the ancestral hall to listen to the Confucian scholars explain the way of life, respect Confucianism and respect Confucius, and learn the virtue of following the state religion all their lives." ”
"Then this Confucian ......"
"The so-called Confucian scholars can collect one-tenth of the income of those untouchables, called tithes, to be handed over to the local Confucian Academy, these tithes, distributed to the central Confucian Academy, the rest of their own enjoyment, naturally for the Confucian scholars in the Confucian Academy, and the dean can enjoy the first night of the woman in the palace, as a compensation for her hard work in spreading Confucianism."
A few poor people, who have not yet married a wife, or after coming to the imperial capital, the kiln sisters prefer to receive rich businessmen, snub poor ghosts and Confucian students, and the guys who have long been suffocated, can't help but swallow their saliva, such a good thing is simply beautiful.
"Establish Confucianism as the state religion, pass on the foundation of eternity, and the people will pay tithes when they join the religion!"
Zheng Sen remembered for a moment that this was similar to the Catholicism that his father had joined, and those Catholic priests were not good men and women, which had been established when his father changed his name to Nicholas.
According to the experience of his hometown, he understood that the heart of the scholar is the most important, remembering what he saw and heard when he went to Japan to visit his mother, and said: "The biggest problem of the Ming Dynasty is that it is difficult to know the noble and the low, so that the people have no respect, what to do is to know the noble and low, my idea is to allow the scribes to walk with swords, if the road meets the untouchables who refuse to kneel and give way, the scribes can be killed on the spot, even so, in order to make the scribes have prestige and speak effectively." ”
As a mixed-race child, Zheng Sen does not have too deep nationalist feelings, as an elder said, development is the last word, but the officialdom of the imperial capital makes him incomprehensible, the most surprising thing to him is that the business environment of the imperial capital is protected by bayonets and rifles very perfectly, any attempt to reach out to ask for dry shares or use power to squeeze out people has been purged, and even Fujian's township party died tragically, after returning to Fujian's hometown, The villagers couldn't believe that such a little bit of corruption was like breathing in the Ming Dynasty, and normal behavior was about to be destroyed in the new court.
This kind of environment, if it was Zheng Zhilong, who was originally a maritime businessman, he might be moved and happy, but he has gradually grown into the stage of the host of a reactionary trust, but he is uncertain, although the so-called cooperation with the imperial capital in Quang Nam Province is very smooth, and its ships are earning very well, almost reaching one-third of this year's income, but Zheng Zhilong, who counted the money and had cramps in his hands, suddenly realized that although he had made a lot of money, but now, the imperial capital has taken root in Guangnan, From then on, there is no need to move troops from the north, but can sweep the entire Ming Dynasty from Guangnan.
In the future, there will be no room for both ends of the first rat, and those big iron ships can gradually be sold to the good people of the north, or even to him, but those ships are not good, and there needs to be a so-called registered company in the north, which means that he must show his family to the elders!
Those who have nothing may be able to vote with their feet and go to the north because of the sufficient supply of food in the north, but Zheng Zhilong, who is already a tyrant in Fujian, does not think so.
For him, what he has to think about is how to keep the family business stable for a long time, the silver bullet offensive is just a drizzle, he once made Erika flicker, can Fujian be torn apart, he is willing to give the annual coins every year.
The response was a bloody response, wanting to split, stepping over their corpses.
Zheng Zhilong jumped to his feet anxiously, as an old fur dog for many years, he knew too well how difficult and dangerous the war situation he was facing.
According to the news sent back from Erika, the emperor has a cannon with a range of several miles, and any red-clothed cannon is like a joke, and the most terrible thing is that the cannon is so small that one or two men can carry it, and people who don't understand land warfare should understand what it means.
The most terrifying thing is that the imperial capital seems to be extremely disgusted with officials doing business, as well as using official positions to ask for shares, but what Zheng Zhilong is currently doing is not like this?
He didn't know what the future would be, how much money he had earned, Zheng Zhilong himself actually didn't dare to calculate, but it was definitely a sky-high price, the cemetery he had prepared for himself before, from inviting all kinds of feng shui gentlemen, to designing, digging preparations, had already spent five thousand taels, and it was just the beginning.
has so much wealth, but Zheng Zhilong is in a state of panic every day, and the most important thing is this.
Zheng Sen entered the imperial capital this time, first of all, he was shocked by everything here, how the city was built so neatly and not to mention, the spiritual outlook of the crowd was incomparable, although he also knew that this was the benefit of arresting the hooligans and beggars who were established many years in advance, and even the imperial capital had already made it clear that if there were beggars, they would be sent overseas for reclamation immediately!
But it's inevitable that it won't be comfortable.
In the past, relying on sailors, Japanese samurai and purchased to dominate the business world in Fujian was not feasible in the emperor, that is to say, there must be a tragic price war and quality war, but Fujian's business, in essence, still relies on takeaway shipping, in fact, the biggest fist product is just tea, and compared with the commercialization of later generations, Taobao tea shops, which occupy half of Taobao, still seem very immature, and are not very hype, and Tianjin's route to the open sea is a very free and open route. Although Zheng Zhilong wanted to promote his advanced experience in collecting Lingqi to make money, the elders were resolutely opposed.
Of course, the biggest reason for uneasiness is that the emperor desperately encouraged coastal fishermen and the original Cao Yun Cao households to switch to sea transportation, although compared to the Fujian fishermen who went to sea because they could not survive, a large number of Fujian fishermen, the tradition of catching the sea has long been formed, but with the huge population base in the north, this kind of business is difficult to reverse from the beginning.
This is the reason why Zheng Zhilong is becoming more and more hesitant.
The habit of Fujian people to like to hold groups outside the country may be treated as a regional custom, but for the capitalists who form a monopoly stage, their monopoly position is everything.
Zheng Sen's trip, the so-called investment newspaper, is just an additive, better than nothing, but it is already very important.
Ya Yi'an, Xu Linshi and other people's performances are actually quite hard, of course, after exchanging a few words, he really found that these talents have not only resentment and fear of these officials in the imperial capital, but a powerless struggle, China's thousands of years of exquisite tradition has been broken little by little, and they can't do what they want to do.
Even the Zheng family itself just planned to use these people for their own purposes, and then give up and throw them away.
"We must remember that we must not offend the elders, and we must always count the merits of the elders into the credit of my Confucian lineage, the elders built the railway because of benevolence and righteousness, and benevolence and righteousness are the spirit of Confucianism, so the elders are talking about the spirit of Confucianism, the elders are compassionate to the small people are virtuous, and my Confucianism is virtuous, so the elders are all characters who have read Confucian classics since childhood."
"It's not a bit ......"
"The so-called name is not right, anyway, as long as the name is correct, you can have no scruples, a hundred years later, the person who will leave a name in history is naturally a person who can write history books."
Zheng Sen can be regarded as a good seductive.
"Zheng Gongzi has said everything about this, if we don't listen, don't we just don't know how to lift, this thing has been done."
Many people swore on the spot, and Zheng Sen was also very generous, after the banquet, this meal was not simple, from the most high-end tiger meat in the imperial capital, to several imitation of the imperial kitchen, and even from the West to improve the quality, it can be said that to eat to the end, the guests and hosts are happy.
