This kind of caviar is as big as soybeans, it is a specialty of Wanchuan County, of course, the specialty is to artificially excavate and develop its value, in the early years, even the food was not enough, and eating caviar was obviously unjustifiable.

After the liberation of Wanchuan County, Bailiyan took a fancy to the open-pit coal mine and sulfur mine in Wanchuan County, so she went to Wanchuan County to arrange for the resumption of agricultural production and mineral excavation.

This freshwater mackerel is not a specialty of Mancheon-gun, but is a migratory fish that can be found in seven or eight surrounding counties with Mancheon as the center, but only mackerel that migrates to Mancheon via the river every year are pregnant and spawn.

Local fishermen catch mackerel for a living, and the roe is a by-product, which is not eaten at a high rate, and in most cases pickled and steamed. Due to the fact that eating livestock meat is the highest quality and eating fish is untouchable, the mackerel roe is not known to the dignitaries.

In view of this, Bailiyan sent people to squat in Wanchuan all the year round, hunting a small amount of mackerel during the spawning season, marinating and drying the fish, and selling them on the spot. The roe was taken out with seasonings, transported out of Wanchuan and sent to Ruitian, where the roe was marinated all the way, and finally cooked and processed into glass cans by Wanchuan Food Factory for tribute to the court and for external sales.

Scarcity is expensive, mackerel roe is favored by the market once launched, although the cost per catty is not high, but the quantity is not much, the quality is high, the price is much higher, and the sales are extremely hot.

For example, there are not a few young people in front of him who can't leave his mouth to eat.

Seeing this, Baili Yan said:

"This should be Mick, the second son of Qing Xijun."

As Namick was putting the copper spoon into his mouth, he was stunned for a moment, and his heart chuckled:

"Who are you, my son never remembered seeing you."

"Childe has never seen so-and-so, but so-and-so often sees Qing Xijun. The two sons came to gamble on horses today, and if they despise the king's law so much, aren't they afraid of the king's punishment! ”

"Who are you from my father, dare to talk to my son like this!" Mick frowned in displeasure, he never remembered his father's circle of friends, who lectured him so unceremoniously and harshly.

At this time, Hue interjected:

"Since you know the identities of the two of us, you should know each other, so rude, this gentleman can cure you for the crime of disrespect at any time."

Bai Liyan glanced coldly, shook her head and smiled bitterly:

"It's really in response to that sentence, one generation is not as good as the next, and it is really a loser to the end." After speaking, Bai Liyan took out a silver-white talisman, which was engraved with the word "Zhenjun", which was not cast from silver, but made of stainless steel, with a bright color like silver and a weight similar to that of iron, so it was almost impossible to imitate.

The front of the order is engraved with the word "town army", and the name and rank of the executor are engraved on the back.

In the name of last week, the sky can be placed alone in a town army, but in fact only 12,000 people are formed, and the symbolic meaning of the town army order is greater than the actual meaning, but it is still quite effective to bluff people.

Hue and Mick naturally don't know the "town army" order, but they don't know the weight of the word "town army". The faces of the two changed, and Hu said hurriedly:

"Originally, it turned out to be the general of the town army, it was rude and rude, I don't know the general's name, and this gentleman will go to the house to apologize another day."

"Remember, Ben Jiang's surname is Wei, so there is no need to apologize. Get your minions out of the way now, or Hugh will capture them and take them to the army. ”

"Yes, yes, Kong Zeng, I don't want to retreat with your son, I still want to be embarrassed."

"No, the subordinates will step back immediately."

Hu Ai forced Kong Zeng to retreat, forced out a little smile and said:

"There are many offenses, and I hope the general will forgive the sins."

Bailiyan's face did not fluctuate, and her eyes looked at Hu and Mick with heavy eyes, faintly giving people a strong sense of oppression.

"That's it, you two can do your own things today, and I won't bother with you. Wei Qi, let everyone disperse. ”

"No."

"Uh......"

Hu was about to say something more, but Bai Liyan blackened his face, turned around and returned with the others to continue watching Marseille.

"This town army is also too crazy, restless guarding their own borders to defend against the enemy, and playing majestic here, it is simply unreasonable!"

Mick scolded without hesitation, and Jue was dumbfounded:

"Be quiet, the town army is not easy to mess with now."

"What are you afraid of, just a general of the town army, you can still turn the sky upside down!"

"You don't know, today's generals are not what they used to be, and the kings now rely on the town army to protect the country, who dares to offend them."

Although Hue is a bastard, his brain is not so bad that he doesn't know what to do.

After the reform of the Xian Army, the status of the town army was much higher than before, and ordinary soldiers were paid military salaries, and generals at all levels received corresponding salaries according to their military ranks. The annual New Year's reward for the powerful and honorable relatives has been greatly reduced, but the annual reward for the town army generals remains unchanged.

After more than a decade of Black Turban rebellion and political reforms, the Xianguo army has changed from an army controlled by the elite to an armed force dominated by the civilian class, and the role of the aristocracy in the army has almost been reduced except for the Jin army.

The status and rights of the generals and envoys of each town are far above those of ordinary feudal monarchs, and after more than ten years of war, the whole country has basically recognized the transcendent status of the army in state affairs, and it is no longer a situation in which the traditional feudal system of princes is divided and factionalized.

Hue succeeded to the throne earlier, and assumed family responsibilities earlier, and he still knew the powerful relationship. It's not like Mick has his father in charge, and his brother is in charge, he is a second son, and he will never have the opportunity to inherit the title, the only thing he is good at is eating, drinking, and having fun, and he can thank God if he doesn't bring trouble to the family, where is there any idle letter to take care of national affairs.

At this time, as soon as the salute sounded, the eight horses on the field rushed out of their respective tracks, and finally converged into a line of you chasing me to compete first, and the audience gamblers were noisy, like a battlefield of fighting.

was disturbed by Hu Ai and Mick, Bai Liyan lost all interest in watching the game, so he gave all the gambling tickets to Wei Qi for him to watch, and he could exchange the gambling money at any time. Zhou Kong asked at this time:

"Still angry?"

Bai Liyan smiled indifferently and waved his hand:

"Madame is really a husband, is she the kind of person with a small temperament, how can I get along with those two children."

"Then what are you worried about?" Zhou Kong got to the bottom of it, and he always felt that Bailiyan was unusual today. Seeing that he was silent, Zhou Kong said again: "You said, be careful of suffocation in your stomach." ”

"It's really annoying to you. Madame also saw just now, these two sons are bullying, although they are suppressed by their husbands, but when they meet others again in the future, such things will continue to happen. If it is not bound by the law, it will become an internal problem that will intensify the civil unrest in the future. ”

In any era, the "privileged class" will never disappear, even in any political system in modern society, money is still the golden shield talisman of the "privileged class", and this is especially true of the capitalist society.

At present, with the monarch as the core and the descendants of the meritorious nobles as the dependents, the huge aristocratic force formed by the dependence was not a big problem, because the productive forces were underground, the material was scarce, the medical conditions were backward, the overall technological development was relatively primitive, and the development of the aristocracy was relatively slow.

Nowadays, the technology of Xianguo is changing with each passing day, the commodity economy is booming, and the rich material conditions and economic dividends have allowed the aristocracy to expand rapidly. Previously, it was bound to the four counties of Suidang, Jiangdong, Dongyuan, and Beihai, but now with the tentacles of the economy, the elite class has penetrated into all aspects.

This is not to say that these phenomena are all dross, but if the development of the aristocracy follows reasonable social rules, the positive and good demonstration effect of the aristocracy will win the respect of all classes, and even the resources controlled by the aristocracy themselves will be able to turn the tide when the country's economy falls into a major setback.

On the other hand, if the aristocracy is overbearing and does all kinds of evil, and controls the army with arbitrary power, it will inevitably accelerate the political disintegration of the country, intensify the class contradictions, and form a domestic revolution, that is, the people will not be able to make a living, and the officials will force the people to rebel.

What's worse is that when these nobles seized power, most of the time when the country was strong and fruitful, their purpose was to steal the fruits of other people's reforms and enrich their own pockets. Therefore, they simply think that they will steal the fruits to enrich themselves, and they will not think of launching a seizure of power that will lead to a decline in national power caused by future policy changes, which will then lead to internal unrest and external invasion.

The first 60 years of China's dynasties were all ruled by Zhongxing, and then when they encountered faint monarchs or powerful ministers who abused their power, they swept away political achievements, resulting in domestic turmoil, economic recession, and people's livelihood withering, which in turn led to foreign invasions and even dynastic changes.

Now, after 20 years of reform, Xianguo has achieved fruitful economic and scientific achievements, and the powerful groups are ready to move, but the elites are just arbitrary, and the incompetence of the second generation of the powerful is the most fatal.

It is not terrible for the country to meet the powerful ministers, but what is terrible is incompetence and mediocrity. Qing Xijun, Zhaoyangjun, Tan Le and others are all incompetent, and their descendants are even more incompetent, if the power is in their hands, it is hard to imagine that the achievements of 20 years of reform will be destroyed in one fell swoop.

The prince is close to the villain, and the prince doesn't realize it. Taking a step back, how to judge who is loyal and who is traitorous is not something that people today can say. How to restrain the aristocracy from abusing their power and stealing the fruits of the law change is far more tricky than that of external troubles.

"Now that the powerful and powerful are about to move, I'm worried that there will be variables in a hundred years." Bai Liyan was worried, and there were suddenly two more wrinkles on her forehead, as if she was telling the bitterness in her heart.

Zhou Kong took his hand and comforted:

"There are also Marquis Lu and Marquis Xuanting, not the husband alone, why don't you go and discuss with the two marquis and make a joint statement to the king."

"Alas......" Baili Yan let out a long sigh: "I have also thought about it for my husband, has my wife ever found that now the economic lifeline of Xianguo is in the hands of the three marquis, which can be described as extremely prominent." And other powerful people are excluded from the core, and they will inevitably hold the prince to re-form a party for privacy.

And the third marquis will be the support of the prince's auxiliary government in the future, no matter how he strips off the henchmen who are attached to the prince, it is still the prince who is annoyed in the end. That's the hard part. If it was ten years earlier, it would still be too late, and now I am afraid that it will force a rebound and cause civil strife. ”

"In this way, you can't move, you can't move, you can't move, you can only sit and wait."

"It's not all about sitting still, but in the future, it will inevitably increase the resistance of the law and become a legacy, so I'm very worried."
