In other words, without the elders noticing, the attractiveness of the so-called jinshi and scholars plummeted.

Without the political status of being high and abusive like pigs and dogs, in the context of complete exemption from agricultural taxes, no one will no longer be dedicated to you, and after the steady increase in labor costs, it is no longer possible to recruit a guy who can carry your work for you, although no one understands the economic principles behind it, but in ignorance, the people still do their own historical promoters.

In the past, China's system was like this, in the Tang Dynasty, in order to fight against the big families, the emperor opened the entrance to the imperial examination system and ceded part of the power to the common landlords, (the poor ghost can't afford to pass the exam) and then, it was the great war like the Niu Li Party Struggle, and the emperor was much more relaxed.

Of course, the 1.0 version of the imperial examination, which evolved into the 2.0 version in the Song Dynasty and the 3.0 version of the Ming Dynasty, has become the capital of the Ming Emperor to attract gentry from all over the world, do not rebel, but strive to integrate into the system, and even give you a way, you have the ability to take the exam, and if you are in the top three or particularly good, you will even give you the position of the first assistant of the cabinet.

Tens of millions of people crossing the single-plank bridge is not nonsense, if the world clock does not change, this situation will be stable, and external forces can hardly break this harmonious state.

However, after entering the industrial society, the situation changed, agricultural products accounted for more and more of the economy, and even in the late Ming Dynasty, farmers did not grow rice, but instead planted mulberry, and the export of silk was more profitable, which was known to the scholars of the Ming Dynasty.

It is a pity that it is basically difficult for them to embark on the road of mercantilism, not only can they not go up, but because of the national policy, they cannot collect commercial taxes at all, but they have begun to collect agricultural taxes without a bottom line.

This is probably the most ridiculous point in China, where countless people claim to be heavy on agriculture, but they are desperate to focus on agriculture, which ultimately leads to the failure to increase agricultural production.

Of course, the unruly rules in business have made it impossible to realize the function of tax regulation of income, and in the era when Donglin Zhengren was in power, under the rumors of competing with the people for profit, the country advancing and the people retreating, the imperial court could not collect taxes on these rich people at all, and in the case of a large number of tax evasions, the salt merchants and other big businessmen accumulated boundless strength, and in turn controlled the imperial court through the Donglin Party.

Any attempt to revitalize the imperial court would end due to lack of funds, and without funds, it would be difficult to make a big move to cleanse the body of the blood-sucking leeches: Confucianism, and these leeches have become stronger and stronger, and have almost completely destroyed this body.

Just like those who shouted for the capitalists in later generations, demanding that the "inferior" state-owned enterprises be sold cheaply, sold to the capitalists at a low price, and opposing the country's advancement and retreat, oh, it is the country's advance and retreat, in fact, it is very simple, hard work to open a store and do business, how can there be a captive Donglin Party, (professor) and then through the Donglin Party (called the beast) will guide the Ming policy to the road that although it will destroy the country, it can help me make a fortune.

As for what will happen in the future, the Donglin Party can defect in large numbers, and I can also vote directly.

This is the real institutional problem.

And now, I had already planned to take the Enke exam, be a master, draw thousands of acres of good fields in the countryside, and then come to dozens of servants, a few maids with water spirits, and it is best to come to a few thugs from the countryside, killing people like hemp, and now the imperial capital is reshuffled, and all the original nobles are on the streets, aren't they all occupied by us upstarts?

Moreover, people's tricks are good, as long as they are filial piety for the elders and collect benefits for the elders, is it still possible to make money?

However, what made them frown was that these behaviors had been dealt with, that is, these elders did not allow officials to take shares in the shop and business, and even the behavior of eating and drinking had to be supervised and reported.

In a word, the heart is shattered.

The way that any scholar uses to encourage himself during the so-called ten-year cold window is not to help the poor or punish bullies, but to be a high-ranking official after becoming a sergeant.

Most of the lucky ones in the first imperial examinations had obvious characteristics, they were all poor.

If you are poor, you can't afford to buy the latest books on the imperial examination, you can't afford to hire the sharpest old man who understands the imperial examination, you can't get the anthology of the undergraduate examiner, and you don't know his writing preferences.

In this case, you say, is it more likely that the dog who lost the imperial examination is a poor ghost or a rich person?

These people are all real hungry ducks, and they are surrounded by a group of hungry and crazy madmen, and it is not uncommon for them to do what they will do after becoming officials under the guidance of the lack of correct values.

According to the statistical report of the 20th year of the republic, the first Enke in the first year of the republic was swept away by the storm of clean government, as high as 80%, which can be called the Beat Generation, and most of them were swept away within two or three years after the examination.

However, no one could have imagined that the real trigger was the sudden siege of several exiles in the second year of the Republic.

Considering humanitarianism, the elders exiled Sun Zhiqi quickly, so that his family could quickly start working and farming after arriving in Liaodong, so as not to starve to death if the agricultural time was delayed.

Therefore, I arranged a train ticket directly and took the first train.

However, this is inevitably ganked.

When the gray-faced Sun Zhiqi family arrived at the train station, they didn't expect such a group of people to come towards him menacingly, and the goal was very certain, that is, after seeing him appear, they got up and pounced.

They are all dressed up as Confucian scholars, and some of them are still holding fans in this very cold season in early spring.

At the beginning, he grinned, he didn't think that he still had prestige, and he responded to every call, such prestige, wouldn't he be able to return to the imperial capital sooner or later?

But when he heard the shouts, his face changed dramatically.

"Old horseman, come and die!"

"Kill an old thing with a thousand knives, don't you want to die by yourself."

"Sinners through the ages!"

"Kill them to thank the countrymen!"

Dozens of people surrounded them, but fortunately, in addition to Sun Zhiqi's family, there were two men, dressed in training uniforms, who looked like the elite of the imperial capital, and they could also deter one or two, "Go away, this is a place to escort prisoners, how can you hinder it, do you want to rob the prison." ”

"We uphold the public heart and kill this national thief, and you dare to stop it!"

"Yes, it's not a crime to kill him, he dared to write a book and say that he forced his countrymen to shave their hair, and it was no longer a ...... Ha, you two are also like this, and you are also traitors, traitors! ”

"Yes, anyone who disobeys us is a traitor!"

The two men were originally ordered to go to Liaodong on business, after all, Liaodong is the earth's heavy industry base in the minds of the elders, at this time, the land is vast and sparsely populated, which is suitable for large-scale steelmaking, this kind of thing is not once or twice, and after all, it is a wayway, at this time the system is not very standardized, and you can do whatever you want, Wang Jian casually let the two of them escort over, in fact, they were watching on the train, at this time the train can already reach Shanhaiguan, and when they arrive at the pass, they will be fine after throwing people directly to the office.

Fortunately, he was already fully armed, and he was carrying a baton for self-defense, but at this time, he waved it and shouted: "Wait for you to retreat, this is the escort task assigned by the National Security Bureau!" ”

"Phew, don't believe them, these ruffians are the most scoundrels, obviously to help this traitor escape, you see, these two people have short hair, they are clearly dog thieves who have turned their backs on their ancestors, and they will be killed together, and the people will only say that it is a good thing!"

When it comes to the National Security Bureau, even former officials grit their teeth with hatred, these people are completely unreasonable, not to mention how many people's futures have been ruined, and they are even competing with them for various financial resources, which is very bad.

At that time, a group of idle Xiucai, led by their followers, began to gradually push and shove, surrounding Sun Zhiqi's family and two national security personnel.

This was the railway station, and it was a heavily guarded place, so naturally patrols on duty soon appeared, whistling warnings, holding their newly issued shields and throwing sticks in both hands, and running towards it.

"Where are you going?"

An officer appeared, and the patrol member saw him, seemed to know him, and said, "My lord, there is someone calling for help ahead!" ”

"It's just a little thing there, someone on the food street just now ate an overlord meal, why don't you go and see it?"

"But ...... "According to the rules, if there are more than two public security incidents at a time, then it will be dealt with according to the priority, and the people who eat the overlord's meal over there are like wolves and tigers, and the patrol team is nothing more than the past adjustment, and try not to fight with the two sides as an official, after all, the nearby merchants live and work in peace and contentment, and they can also let him have a bonus, and it seems that they are going to kill people."

According to the manual at the time of training, you should suppress those who are fighting at this time.

"What do you know, those profiteers must be shoddy and deceive the world, you also have to buy food at the stall on weekdays, isn't this a big deal about you, as for that side, naturally there is nothing to do."

Although the patrol team is not under the direct jurisdiction of the other party, it often has to listen to others in its business dealings.

So I had to turn around and deal with the things on the food street.

The official smiled, touched his beard that he gradually grew, and was proud for a while, what the official wants is the eyes of the heart, and there is a fart for doing things with one mind, the so-called ten years of doing things, it is better to worship the teacher, as long as you follow the right person, it is only a matter of time before you are promoted, this time, that person said, it was done, and their momentum was created, and those martial artists executed Sun Zhiqi's family, as well as those who were disobedient, so the power of the court and government was in the hands of those who read poetry and books.

The reason is very simple, a gentleman can deceive him.

In the Ming Dynasty, the emperor ate a slightly higher degree of food, even if those adults ate and drank more comfortably than the emperor, they were also impeached by the book, and in my Qing Dynasty, the Summer Palace of the Old Summer Palace was not completed for two hundred years, and there were often Qing powders, especially those who wore women to ridicule, the Ming people were uneducated pigs, how could I build such a huge garden in the Qing Dynasty, this is the pity of the gentleman.

I have an average of "mosquito meat" every 20 months in the Qing Dynasty, which is the pinnacle of killing people with words, and those who dare to write and talk about things are basically cold.

Ji Xiaolan, eh, that's right, it's the legendary guy who dares to fight corrupt officials, in fact, he hasn't done anything useful in his life, he wanted to rely on being close to the emperor to say a few words, but he was immediately pushed back by the emperor, "Raising you Confucian students is the same as raising a group of prostitutes at home, it is to make me happy, not to make me unhappy by letting you talk!" ”

In this case, the Confucian scholars should naturally know what they really are.

And in the Ming Dynasty, what kind of things were officials raised into a group of things, what do they call what they can't do, and what they can't eat, these are the people.

After all, the elders are people from an era of material and spiritual abundance, and they may not be proficient in the red tape of this era, as long as they treat people and things, they will expose their "big and coarse" nature, and they don't understand the various dialogues that should be in this era, of course, they don't understand those in later generations, but at least they are educated and know the minimum politeness.

Therefore, nature gives the impression that it can be fooled.

It's not good to kill too many people, but if you don't kill, there will naturally be people living in their own imagination.

Sun Zhiqi's family actually still has long hair, but the two errand servants have short hair, especially spiritual, at this time they are holding a throwing stick, waving it, at the beginning they still suffered some losses, although these scholars do not do it themselves, but let the family go up to do things, so there is room for turnaround, but once it is deployed, the various tactics taught by the elders will be beaten, even if it is only two people, it is not a dozen people can resist.

A few words of effort, the family members were beaten in all directions to escape, originally the master said, kill the person, not only is it fine, there is also a bonus, naturally everyone is brave, but if this behavior is immediately hit, they run fast, of course, stupid loyalty in their hearts, will not throw down the master and run away.

Sun Zhiqi's wife and concubine, as well as two sons, are all around, but at this time they are surrounded, it is really called that the earth and the earth are not spiritual, and the two men can only protect the front, Sun Zhiqi's family can't escape, they were arrested one by one, and immediately a group of people went up to fight.

People dressed as scholars kept appearing, and they kept saying: "Come on, kill this national thief with one punch." ”

"Yes, do those elders dare to lose the hearts of the world's corporals, the law does not blame the public, we wait for hundreds of scribes, do we need to say more to kill this traitor, he punishes us and others, just wait for the world's corporals to oppose it."

"Yes, in this imperial capital, more and more scholars such as us are not taken seriously, and they all rely on money to speak, how can this work."

Several scholars punched Sun Zhiqi's son a few times, and felt that it was not enjoyable, but when they saw the owner of a shop next to him was panicking on the door panel, they wanted to pull the door open, and immediately ran over and said, "You, come here, punch this thief." ”
