Chapter 7 Becoming a landlord

Carpentry carving knives, a full set of 12 pieces, Master Huipu tied a leather bag under the left and right ribs, each containing a set of carpentry carving knives. This knife looks very unpretentious, with a featureless wooden handle and an inconspicuous steel head.

At Su Xiaocai's request, the master handed him a carving knife, he took a closer look, and found that the blade of this carving knife was worn out greatly, and it should be a very old set of carving knives.

"You're just holding a murderer?"

"Most of the time, this thing is used to carve wood, and the teacher is a merchant, and many delicate things are made by himself!"

"You're already so rich......"

"Merchant, is an identity, this identity can allow me to wander anywhere without suspicion!"

"You are a merchant, so generous, buy thousands of acres of land, pay for three hundred taels of gold, three hundred taels of gold, people don't doubt you?"

"I didn't buy it in my name, why should people doubt me? I bought it under Li Xun's name! ”

"Who is Li Xun?"

"Li Xun is a person registered in the government! In the future, you will be Li Xun, and Li Xun will be you! ”

"Huh?"

"Where you came from, can you tell me clearly? Have you ever been to the Dingkou book? Do you have a wayguide? Do you have a family? Chen Puhui smiled, "You don't have any of these, right?" So the soldiers take you away and ask, you can only pretend to be two and a half hanging, and fool the past! I'm watching you! You can't prove your identity, which makes me even more sure that you are the 'river stranger' without a doubt! ”

"Oh!"

"So, you have to have an identity now, or you're black!"

"What about black people?"

"When blacks are caught, they do whatever they want! The biggest possibility is to be used as a scapegoat, a mischief or a fugitive slave, killed or sold! For example, if there is a powerful Yanai or something, if you commit a capital crime, you may become a substitute for the dead ghost and be stiffened by Li Daitao's head; For example, if the imperial court asks to catch the spies on the Liao, Jurchen, and Xia sides, and the number does not meet the requirements, you may be killed...... Or, take you to the slave market and sell you like a livestock......"

"Oh my God! Inhumanity! Black households are also people, isn't the last account over, how can this be? ”

"The poll tax and conscription of the imperial court, if everyone is a black household, and they don't pay taxes and don't serve, the court will eat?

Therefore, the court has always been harsh in its treatment of blacks!

Of course, even under this strict deterrence, many localities still conceal their population in order to evade taxes......

Let's not talk about the black household, let's talk about Li Xun, this person is a scholar, his father was a county magistrate, and he didn't want to die in office, and his mother soon died of illness......

At that time, Li Xun was fourteen years old, and watched a family fall, and in his last days, he had no choice but to sell his ancestral property and his family's acres......

At that time, Li Xun was nineteen years old, and he felt that his studies were in full swing, so he had to sell his ancestral house and go to Tokyo with some silver taels, hoping to gain fame......

Unexpectedly, I was robbed by thieves and scared half to death, but I happened to be saved by me...... Due to excessive fright, coupled with the wind and cold, I couldn't afford to get sick, and I sought medical advice for a long time, but to no avail, I still died......

Now his things are all here with me, and his eyebrows and eyes are similar to you as a teacher, and his size and grade are also similar, so in the future, you will stare at Li Xun's name and mix in this world! ”

"In other words, as Li Xun, I am already a landlord who owns this Zhuangzi?"

"You can say that, but you will not be just a small landowner in the future! You have to settle down here and take everyone to do things, you are a 'river out of the other', and you will be the backbone of everyone......"

"You're talking about how stressed I am! I am a person who has no pursuits and no ideals, I just want to live a rich life comfortably, don't be so busy, don't be looked down upon, don't be bullied and insulted! ”

"What you said is exactly what we all think, everyone is the same as you think, but unfortunately in this world, do you think it is possible? For the sake of what you said, we should do a lot of things! ”

"Then do it! Master, you bad old man is very bad, so if you have any bad ideas, shake them out as soon as possible, I am your apprentice, and I will follow the implementation of the ......"

"To be honest, the teacher is in contact with a group of Jianghu customers and craftsmen, and they are really not good at land production and business management! You're not a good person, so figure it out for yourself! Besides, you are the landlord here, and I am not the landlord......"

"When you talk about this matter, I suddenly remembered that the high ones are suspicious! The land you bought is in the hands of others, and it is haunted, and when it comes to me, it will not make trouble, and the government will not come to check on me? How are you going to deal with it? ”

"Tell me what you're going to do! Come on, tell your thoughts, and let the teacher see how good your bad idea of 'river out of strangers' is! ”

"Alright! Since it is clear that you want to take the apprenticeship exam, I have to show you a small hand! To settle this matter, it is actually very simple, you have to start from this Black Tiger Xuantan Temple! In my dynasty, Taizu is located in his younger brother Taizong, there is a 'Golden Kui Alliance', according to the 'Golden Kui Alliance' agreement, Taizu passed the throne to his younger brother Zhao Guangyi after a hundred years, and Zhao Guangyi passed on to his younger brother Zhao Tingmei, and Zhao Tingmei passed the throne to Taizu's son ...... a hundred years later. But Taizong did not pass the throne to his brother Zhao Tingmei, but to his son Zhao Heng, that is, Zhenzong. In order to show the reasonableness and legitimacy of his throne, and to show that the surname Zhao was ordered by heaven, Zhao Heng staged a farce of 'monks face each other to win the world, and Mount Tai sealed Zen to revitalize the country'. Zhenzong Zhao Heng was originally the third son of Taizong, according to the eldest son's inheritance, he did not come to be the emperor, because Taizong believed in a monk's statement, saying that Zhao Heng had the image of the Son of Heaven, so Zhao Heng was made the crown prince. In order to better explain his legal status as the Son of Heaven, Zhao Heng announced to the world that the ancestor Marshal Zhao Gong said in his dream that he would set up a dojo to welcome the 'Book of Heaven', so sure enough, the yellow silk that was more than two feet long fell from the sky. This is auspicious from heaven, so under the sycophancy of Wang Qinruo and other gluttonous ministers, there was a farce of the emperor coming to Mount Tai to seal Zen. Later, he posthumously named 'Marshal Zhao Gong' as 'Emperor Taishang Mingyuan'. In order to show the orthodoxy of the Zhao family's throne and the true existence of the ancestor of his dream, 'Marshal Zhao Gong', Zhenzong Zhao Heng ordered all counties across the country to build Xuantan Temples to worship 'Marshal Zhengyi Xuantan'. At the same time, the large-scale, magnificent Yuqing Zhaoying Palace was built in Tokyo, enshrined the 'Book of Heaven', and in the main hall of the Yuqing Zhaoying Palace, the four statues of the Jade Emperor, the Emperor Taishang Mixed Yuan, Taizu and Taizong were enshrined, and the Yuqing Zhaoying Palace was used as the ancestral temple of the Zhao and Song dynasties......

Therefore, this Black Tiger Xuantan is a very interesting faith! As long as his old man manifests, no one in the world dares to say that the manifestations are fake!

Therefore, it is only necessary to spend money to invite the Taoist priests in the temple of the 'Zhengyi Xuantan' in the capital to do a ritual to exorcise ghosts, so that people can go around advocating the 'Marshal of Zhengyi Xuantan' to manifest their spirits and bless the people. No one else, of course, dared not question it! Questioning the ancestors of the official family, what will happen to them, they know very well......"
