- Zheng Zhilong is shameless!

At the end of April, with the end of the pen post, Zheng Zhilong's jokes began to circulate in the entire Fujian region, not the entire southern country.

Who has ever seen a 'scientific examination' that admits thousands of people at one time?

Who has ever seen the 'imperial court' that doesn't even let go of the 'landing lift'? Zheng Zhilong reached out to those 'landing lifters', but anyone who was willing to go south could follow them, and no one could stop them.

Zheng Zhilong was too greedy, not even as good as Tartar and Li Shun in Chang'an, or even Daxi in Chengdu. It really disgraced the face of the 'court'.

Jiangnan Shilin didn't know how to laugh at Zheng Zhilong. What are all the people he recruited? I don't even have the qualifications to carry shoes for celebrities.

The content of the pen post test, which has been completely thorough, I don't know how many people have laughed at it in Jiangnan.

"Can such a person manage the country?"

On the surface, this is talking about those civil servants, but in fact, it is Zheng Zhilong who is laughing.

At the same time, these scholars and celebrities are also firmly hostile to Zheng Zhilong one by one, that is a heresy, a heresy that pollutes the air for one more day if you live more.

The fame of the imperial examination has a very sacred status in the eyes of the upper class society of this era.

That was the only way for ordinary people to reach the upper class - although people in business could make money, if they did not have the protection of scholars, they would be fat sheep to be slaughtered in the eyes of the eunuchs.

The military households and the sons and daughters of the nobles had a good status at the founding of the country, but in the future, they were not as good as the next generation, and they were more and more looked down upon.

Therefore, for these upper-class families, allowing the children of their descendants to participate in scientific examinations and gain fame is the only means to maintain the prosperity of the family. And once people have a reputation in the field, they don't need to be reminded by others, they know that they have become different.

This is the social cognition and social values formed in the whole social environment.

As a result, Zheng Zhilong's 'imperial examination', although it is still an examination mode, is too child's play and too unorthodox compared to the imperial examination of thousands of troops crossing a single-plank bridge.

With a wave of his hand, there are thousands of people, and the test questions are so simple, it is no longer a single-plank bridge crossed by thousands of troops, but an unimpeded sunny avenue.

Those civil servants are not 'scholars' in the true sense of the word, they just know how to write and write, and they can calculate accounts and keep accounts.

Zheng used his actual actions to show his attitude - the communication between officials is by no means a joke.

And in this way, it is very likely that in the future, the Zheng family's 'imperial examination' will no longer be the Daming imperial examination that scholars are familiar with, but the current 'pen post test' where anyone can come in and have a look.

This legal is extremely bad. If the Zheng family has such a path of glory in the world in the future, won't the people of the world take the source of the article and the moral article lightly?

The Ming Imperial Examination is an official, and the number is naturally very small.

The Zheng family's 'imperial examination' is selected by Xu officials, so how can the base be ten or a hundred times that of the former?

And if the officials of the Zheng family are all selected from among the officials, then the imperial examination of the Zheng family can only be a written test, and only a written post test.

This is called how should the Ming Dynasty, these Jinshi, Juren, and even Xiucai Gong, who split thousands of troops and rushed out of the single-plank bridge, deal with themselves?

None of them can rely on the 'Four Books and Five Classics' to climb to a level beyond the social level of the vast majority of people, and directly stand out in the framework of the power structure of the whole society.

They must carve a way out of the 'thousands of troops' of the officials and go to a higher peak. Isn't this more difficult, not to mention, just to say that such an advanced model of social rights is completely different from the 'road' of Ming society.

In the Ming Dynasty, the four books, five classics and eight articles were used to split the avenue and directly enter the level of 'official', while the Zheng family needed to use hard work and practical ability and visible achievements to split the road to climb.

This is a great rebellion in the eyes of the reader.

Not to mention, under the great tomorrow, if you want to take the road of studying, you must have money in your family, at least a few acres of thin land, or show your extraordinary intelligence and early wisdom and be helped by the clan. The representative of the latter is Hong Chengchou, and even Shen Nanguang. Otherwise, you are not "qualified" to read and study.

But what about the Zheng family's world? That's a lot lower. It used to be an 'elite society', but now it is directly the masses.

It's as if it was originally their own private land, but now everyone can come and visit it, how can this satisfy the gentry?

They have crossed the single-plank bridge of life, and finally achieved the promotion of the family class, and the legacy of the descendants is huge.

The first is financial resources, followed by teacher resources, and then human connection.

Their descendants can stand out early with better family background, better teacher resources and social resources. Step by step, it is relatively easy to walk to a position that exceeds the ninety percent of the people in the world - the title of the gold list, the master of the non-commissioned officer.

But what about the Zheng family? It seems that even the best resources can only get you to the position of a servant. Before, he directly surpassed nine out of nine people in the world, but now he can only surpass half of the people in the world, not even less.

Is the competitive pressure directly amplified by ten or a hundred times?

More importantly, it breaks the monopoly of some people on the resources of 'official positions' to some extent.

Any gentry class who understands all this regards Zheng Zhilong as a mortal enemy, and no one wants to watch the 'Zheng family in the world' prosper.

Such a Zheng family in the world, even if it only exists for a day, it makes them uncomfortable.

Not to mention that the eight-strand text they have learned since childhood is useless, and the Zheng family's pen post test is not tested at all.

This is not 'heresy', what is 'heresy'?

Zheng Zhilong is using the banner of 'imperial examination' to oppose the 'imperial examination'!

But what makes them even more bitter and unspeakable is that on the surface, they can't reveal their dirty careful thoughts - because the shortcomings of the officials have been a stubborn disease for thousands of years, and Zheng Zhilong is now under the banner of relieving this stubborn disease. Moreover, he can now openly say that this is not the imperial examination, but just a small pen test.

He is still a minister of the Ming Dynasty, how can he open a department and learn from a scholar by himself?

Zheng Zhilong: Some of him is an excuse, and some of it is an excuse.

What made Qian Qianyi and other discerning celebrities vomit blood was that the "News" also raised the flag for Zheng Zhilong with the title of "The Prime Minister Must Start in the State Department, and the Fierce General Must Be Sent in the Army", which also won the praise of countless people.

That's an old Chinese saying, and it's an old saying that everyone agrees with.

What can the broad class of the gentry do in the face of this class enemy? There was only one vicious curse. By the way, it was also connected to the "News"!

Qian Qianyi is even sure that this "News" is inseparable from Zheng Zhilong.

And it was at this time that a 'big earthquake' suddenly came to Quanzhou, which not only made the Fujian earthquake severe. When the news reached Jiangnan, the whole world was in an uproar.

The seven counties of Quanzhou Prefecture, hundreds of rural clans, as well as more than 200 Xiucai and more than 30 people, were all raided by Zheng Zhilong overnight.

Aren't these small clans in the countryside looked down on, that is, tens of thousands of people? Immigrants are immigrants, and they are all inconspicuous little shrimps.

But Xiucai and the people have a big impact. These are all scholars or scholars seeds, who were forcibly 'dispatched' by Zheng Zhilong to go overseas to Luzon thousands of miles away, although Zheng's statement on the surface is that they voluntarily moved to Luzon and intended to educate the natives.

But the devil believes it.

In the eyes of the people of the world, Zheng Zhilong felt that he was going to the wild land of Luzon, so he packed and took away some reading seeds. lest their own territory become a wilderness country.

That is to cut the land for thousands of miles, called lonely, there is not even a literati in the country, this is also difficult to call "the treasure of the world, the outstanding people", isn't it?

Therefore, contrary to Zheng Zhilong's expectations, he thought that his actions would attract infamy, but he didn't want to get some inexplicable 'pity' and malicious ridicule.

After Zheng Zhilong was rescued from King Qin, his whole person changed, and all kinds of bad things never stopped. Starting from Ji Ding Qingtian, it became the source of evil in the eyes of the Quanzhou gentry, and the subsequent 'opening of the department' was even more so.

I finally got a chance to see his jokes, why don't you laugh a few more loudly?

Zheng Zhilong is also hehe.

At the end of April, we went north from Xinjing, which is Manila. Zheng Zhilong made a name for this, and it was also to further convey the news to Jinling. In fact, when Emperor Chongzhen learned the news, he did laugh.

From Xinjing to Lingayen Bay, then all the way to Taoyuan.

Zheng Zhilong did not go to Tainan, but stopped the boat at the chicken coop. This is the key construction site of Zheng Jun on Dayuan Island recently, from dry docks to docks, warehouses, and even shipyards, you can see it here.

This is a strategic base operated by Zheng Jun in the north of the island. Who called it so geographically superior? Surrounded by mountains on three sides, the north is bordered by the harbor, and there are Heping Island and Tongpanyu at the entrance, forming a natural breakwater.

Not to mention the abundant fishery resources around here, and a coal mine with a large reserve - the little devil has not dug it up for 50 years, and it is gradually depleted in the 70s, Zheng Zhilong has no reason not to operate here.

"Father. The child wants to take Erlang for a good walk and take a look. Zheng Sen asked Zheng Zhilong for his life, and of course the latter would not refuse. I went to listen to Zheng Tai's report.

Now that the busy agricultural season has passed, it is time to pay the public grain.

The public grain under the Zheng family was transported to the grain station by the peasants themselves to pay, rather than the tax collectors going down to the villages to collect it.

"Look at the long line."

Zheng Sen pointed to the long queue in front of a grain station, and saw that the rule of the government was unstable, and it could be seen just by looking at the enthusiasm of the people when they paid grain and taxes.

Although Zheng Ping had not personally paid the public grain, he had heard how the tax collectors collected the public grain when they went to the countryside. Whether in Hirado or Nagasaki, he could hear every year about the urging of food and human life.

He looked around and saw that outside the barbed wire fence of this grain station, there were many ordinary people who were about to pay for public grain. They were all two cars in a row, and a long queue was discharged for several miles.

These people were wearing undershirts and short coats, and none of them were carrying baskets, but they were all pulling carts, not one person, and a flatbed cart was generally followed by three or four people, with full grain bags on it. Because it was not their turn yet, these people were smoking pipes and drinking water, and they were still chatting with each other, with a cheerful look between their eyebrows and eyes.

"I can come to pay the public food with a smile, if the little brother didn't see it with his own eyes, he would never believe it." Zheng Ping seems to have the answer in his heart.

Zheng Sen laughed: "The grain tax set by my father is not high. The land is fertile, and there is no shortage of rain, as long as you are not a lazy person, how can you not easily pay the public grain? ”

"In addition, there are countless large and small projects on this island, in addition to requisitioning the people to serve, the governor's office will also spend a lot of money and grain to hire people. As long as you are not a lazy person, you can spare three or five months a year to work, and the money and food you earn are enough for the family's expenses. ”

"In short, on this Dayuan Island, as long as you are willing to work, there will be no starving people." Zheng Sen's arm drew a large circle in front of his eyes, encircling all the people. "Say, what kind of life did they live under the Ming Dynasty? At the end of the year, there is not a single dry food for Chinese New Year's Eve. I can't eat enough, I can't dress warmly, and now that I have a good life, they may be counted as the foundation of my Zheng family? ”

"I'm afraid everyone is willing to die for the Zheng family!" Zheng Ping said with heartfelt emotion, he thought of a pair of old servants in his family, who had no children and no daughters, if it weren't for his mother's kindness, he would definitely die early. Are they also willing to die to Zheng Ping and Tagawa?
