Chapter 404: Saying Song Jiang [Asking for Subscription]
Haozhou is Fengyang, the hometown of Zhu Hongwu in later generations. And now it is just a very ordinary one among the many military states of the Great Song Dynasty.
Since it was captured by Song Jiang, the number of people inside and outside Haozhou City has been constantly lost, and no matter whether they are rich or poor, some people regard the Liangshan army as thieves. Even after Song Jiang invaded Haozhou, he strictly abided by the military regulations of the Liangshan Army, did not burn or loot, did not damage a single hair to the local ordinary people, and spared hands on the local gentry and wealthy households. Some people think like this, if you press the head of the ox and don't drink water, how can you bear them?
A flattering eye was thrown to the blind man, and no one appreciated it. made Song Jiang and his army leaders angry.
"I would have turned my heart to the bright moon, but the bright moon shines on the ditch." Song Jiang said so lamentingly.
However, when all the people who were going to leave were gone, Haozhou became stable.
Nowadays, the people here seem to be accustomed to the rule of the Liangshan army. Outside the city gate, there are already some ordinary vendors, who set up tents in the staggered places, and take the city gate as the center to set up a continuous market, playing monkey show, measuring words and playing hexagrams, noisy and noisy. The shouting and shouting attracted countless people to stop and stop.
As for the city, it has been restored to its former liveliness.
Whoever called the Song army of Huainan West Road was useless in vain, and for such a long time, he failed to organize a counteroffensive with some appearance and hit back to Haozhou City. Then stop blaming the people for being ruthless. And they are forgetful.
When there is peace in this situation, business will surely prosper. Many shops have opened on the street in Haozhou, among which the shops selling salted fish, canned food and ironware are particularly prosperous.
The former is a major product of the Liangshan Army today. From the hand of Lu Qian. He collected seafood from coastal fishermen, pickled salted fish for one, made surimi enema for two, and canned food for three.
The latter is not a tin can, nor a glass bottle, but a low-cost clay pot.
Salt, green onion and ginger are boiled and filled in clay pots of similar size, and after being simply sealed by the principle of heat expansion and cold contraction, the canned food can be stored for a long time and is freshly baked.
These things are not worth a lot of money on the coast, but in the inland, the price rises.
What is especially important is that such a large volume of seafood greatly complements the Liangshan army's need for meat. Although there is an expense to make them, the cost is much smaller than that of pigs, mutton, and poultry. It is also very beneficial to the Liangshan army.
Salted fish, surimi sausages and canned food were originally military supplies. But this positioning is a big waste in Lu Qian's eyes, and he ordered some to be put in the inland market around the New Year's Festival, because the price is much cheaper than meat, and the sales are very pleasant. In this way, the salted fish, surimi enema and canned food naturally entered the private market.
Now this month, salted fish and surimi enemas are rare in the inland. Canned food is a rarity on the whole earth. In April, there is no need to worry about sales. In some places along the coast of Shandong, sporadic food factories have appeared.
As it turns out, the appeal of wealth is huge. You don't have to worry about who is in charge, and money will make people obey.
This kind of scale is mostly a workshop model, but it also represents a kind of "hope".
Shops selling metal utensils such as iron pots, sickles, shovels, shovels, scissors, kitchen knives, and axes are even busier in the city.
Lu Qian, who holds the two coal and iron bases of Laiwu Prison and Li Guojian, is the first-class rich. And with such high-tech windmills and hydraulic forging hammers, is it not invincible in the 'shopping mall'?
The Ordnance Superintendent has changed his mind from swords, guns, weapons and armor to civilian affairs, and its advantages are incomparable.
Lu Qian did not know anything about smelting technology, and he was unable to push the level of China's smelting industry to a new height at this time; However, he was able to integrate the mines and smelting workshops, and with the large amount of prisoners of war in his hands, he used manpower to push the steel production under his command to an astronomical figure in the eyes of today.
Even if there are ten catties of iron, seven or eight have been turned into armor. The rest is in the market, and high-quality ironware is also highly respected by the people.
It's just that the latter is more sold in the land of Qilu, and the buyer has to show his identity. Haozhou belonged to the military state under the rule of the 'Qi State', and very few high-quality iron tools arrived, so this alternative hunger marketing was also called 'Qi Tie' and was more respected by the people in Haozhou.
Jin Maohu saw such a scene is very emotional, Haozhou is so lively, compared to Yangzhou today, it is not an exaggeration. Song Jiang was overjoyed to see Yan Shunji. The two separated from Dizhou, and it has been more than a few months in the blink of an eye, and it is really time flies, and time flies.
"When I was separated, my brother was not miserable, but now it has only been a few months, but he is already majestic and energetic. Didn't my brother really forget the Great Song Dynasty and die for the Liangshan land thieves? Yan Shun looked at Song Jiang's red face, opened his mouth without concealing it, and directly stated his intentions.
Song Jiang was bluffed by these words, "What are you doing here in Haozhou?" Don't talk about the friendship between you and me, but hurt the face of my king. Didn't you become a lobbyist at the official house? ”
He has been serving the Liangshan Army for a short time, although he has never set foot in Lu Qian's core power layer, but because of the relationship between Chao Gai and Hua Rong, he knows some of the past merits of the most mysterious spy department in the Liangshan Army.
People who are heavy in their minds tend to think things in the dark. Song Jiang is such a person.
Ever since he heard about the spy department, he was the first to think of the Imperial City Division. Voting in such a situation as he is already lowly, how can he gain Lu Qian's trust? If you treat him with yourself, if you are him, you will also bury the present in the army. I can't guarantee that there are people who have been bought by the spy department among my close attendants.
Yan Shun spoke like this, didn't it hurt him?
Jin Maohu saw Song Jiang's face change, it really didn't seem to be a fake, and his heart jumped: "Brother Gongming, aren't you determined to rebel against Lu Qian's thief?" ”
He is very arrogant, but in such a day as he lives in the rivers and lakes, he can't tell the slightest truth from falsehood, which is a lie.
Yan Shun looked at Song Jiang's face full of anger now, looking up and down, it didn't look like he was fake. It is like a basin of cold water.
"It's a shame that I am still in front of Lu Xianggong as a guarantee for you, saying that you are thinking of the Great Song Dynasty, and you were forced by the thieves in the king to cast Liangshan earlier, and you have no choice but to follow the thief. Lu Xianggong also really values you, and allows you to be a state defense envoy. I danced with joy, thinking that I would be able to get together with my brother again in the future, drinking wine and eating meat in a big bowl like back then, and I never thought ......"
Yan Shun said sincerely, and his eyes were shining. When Song Jiang heard this, he immediately felt a little guilty in his heart. Said silently: "Brother, would you rather not know this time and that time? ”
Although Liangshanbo swept Qilu at the beginning, the imperial court was still powerful, and the western army was suppressed by Huwei, so it was also respected by the imperial court. Song Jiang was so reluctant to serve Liangshan because he thought that Lu Qian was a temporary void.
But now the world is in turmoil, and the giants are anti-king, Hedong Tianhu, Huaixi Wang Qing, Dongting Zhongxiang, Jiangnan La, Qilu Lu Qian, the great Song Dynasty is divided into pieces, as if the world is in chaos.
Even though the official army is now fighting against the king in the north and south, and good news is frequent, as a member of the Liangshan army, he also has his own news channel. When Yan Shun arrived in Haozhou, Lu Qian had already laid down Tokyo City for many days. And the father and son of Liu Tao, who stayed in Tokyo, were assassinated by their own people, and the inside thoughts are extremely terrifying.
Song Jiang likes the former, but is slightly suspicious of the latter. But I still believe in the majority. Such a thing was done by the Espionage Department, and Lu Qian had no reason to hide it. This made Song Jiang's favor for Zhao Song decrease a lot.
It was just Yan Shun who came to recruit Song Jiang ...... at this time, and the timing was not right.
"This Lu Xianggong is really calculating."
Song Jiang and Yan Shun broke up unhappily. But the latter did not give up hope, and never turned around and left, letting Song Jiang live with the Yangren. Song Jiang entered the flower hall again, and saw Song Qing shaking a fan, fanning the wind.
"yes. Good calculation. Only one Zhao'an can reverse the overall situation of Huainan in one fell swoop. In order to persuade Song Jiang, Yan Shun told Lu Yirou what he said, and it is undeniable that there is a certain truth in it. But he also looked too highly at the attractiveness of Zhao Song's official hat at the moment.
In the past, Song Jiang boasted that he had never met talents, and he could not stretch his ambitions. In my heart, I want to be an official, I want to get ahead, and I want to shine on the lintel. Because although he is not regarded as a similar figure by literati and ink writers, he is a very "orthodox" literati doctor in his heart. There is no traditional Chinese literati doctor who does not want to be an official. After all, "self-cultivation, family harmony, governing the country, and leveling the world" is one of the fundamental ideas of Confucianism.
In this way, Song Gongming is not reckless.
In the Water Margin, he is bent on recruiting An, not only to be an official, but also to realize his ideals.
And in the case that he has no intention of being the emperor, the official who was recruited to be the Great Song Dynasty is undoubtedly the best choice.
Scholars and doctors are willing to be officials, and Xiaoxiong will think about being the emperor, while the reckless rivers and lakes like Chao Gai are only willing to be the king of the mountain, and they will be happy for a while.
The background of Song Jiang's growth, the inner contradictions, and the conflicts of behavior, are intertwined with his lifelong pursuit, which can be said to be a portrayal of the mind of a doctor with life pursuits.
In a sense, it is not so much that Song Jiang was loyal to Zhao'an, but that Song Jiang never rebelled. His heart follows the Confucian idea of "loyalty to the monarch and patriotism". In the context of the Water Margin, Song Jiang's loyalty and love can only be a big cowardice.
For Li Kui and other figures, the rebellion was to have meat to eat and drink, and the head fell off a bowl and a big scar, and it was not a pity to die. As for Song Jiang, the rebellion was to attract the attention of the imperial court and return to the official career/right path with a higher attitude. For this goal, in Song Jiang's heart, it is also not a pity to die.
It can be said that Song Jiang is fundamentally different from the reckless brothers under him. Those imperial court generals who were bowed down by Song Jiang were somewhat similar to him.
His tragedy is only that he was obviously born as a lowly official, but he became a feudal traditional scholar with Confucian ideals and aspirations. As fate would have it, he was forced to take a non-mainstream road to serve the country, and his rebellion was never for rebellion.
Lu Qian has always hated Song Jiang, and what he hated was Song Jiang's set of thoughts. But in his eyes, Song Jiang is by no means the outright selfish person in the eyes of some people in later generations, let alone a shameless and despicable person who simply used his brother's life to dye his official hat red.
He was extremely disgusted with Song Jiang's thoughts. This kind of thought can be felt without smelling the strong rancid smell of science. Old man Shi is a person from the late Yuan and early Ming Dynasty. At that time, science had already become bigger, and in the war for hegemony at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, such as Zheng Yu, Wang Han, Yang Weizhen, Shen Menglin and Teng Kegong, etc., Han humanists who were loyal to the Yuan Dynasty were doctors, which was the reason why Lu Qian was extremely disgusted with Song Jiang and science.
Song Jiang's unwavering insistence on entering the Zhao'an route was out of his inner thoughts. Lu Qian thought that this person had a kind of feudal patriarchal style, and he felt that he was responsible for his brothers. No matter how these "brothers" were abducted and deceived, and how he was pretended to win them over, that is, his little brother, and he has to take the responsibility of his elder brother, and firmly believes that his "cognition" is absolutely correct. It is a belief that gives every brother its grandest ideals to serve the nation and illuminate the lintel, and that no one will be allowed to destroy it.
Yu said in "Water Margin" that under Song Jiang's real intention to be the emperor, Zhao'an is the most in line with the best interests of the Liangshan collective. Of course, it is difficult to say whether it is in the interests of each individual, and many officers who were awarded positions after the expedition were not as good as before going up the mountain, such as Hu Yanzhuo and Guan Sheng. Lu Junyi and Chai Jin, who were rich and wealthy before going up the mountain, lost their family business after going up the mountain, and finally changed to a low-level official position, isn't it funny? However, as Yangsan as a whole, this is the best way out.
Song Jiang "sincerely" thinks about the collective interests of Liangshan, because these interests are consistent with his life philosophy. For this, he could send any of them (including himself) to death at any time.
Isn't this kind of "selflessness" an extreme form of "selfishness"?
The Song Jiang that can be on is the Song Jiang in "Water Margin", which is a fixed literary image. But it is by no means the current Song Jiang.
Now Song Jiang is a living person. is a person who lives in a different social context.
Even if he is still "loyal to the king and serving the country", the loyal king may no longer be Zhao Tianzi, and the country may no longer be the Great Song Dynasty.
"Although the Western Army is elite, how can the soldiers and horses of Liangshan be idle?" Song Jiang clasped his hands in his lower abdomen, his eyes were confused, "Since he can win once, how can he not win the second time?" ”
