In the Tang Dynasty, the class composition of society was very strict, and in general, the rulers divided the common people into four classes: "Shinong, Industrialist, and Industrialist".

Scholars, that is, scholars or squires who have not yet gained fame, because they are also related to officials, so their status is higher.

The next is the peasants who farm, because the taxes of the Tang Dynasty during this period were mainly collected from the peasants, and due to the influence of the government soldier system, when the war came, the peasants could become soldiers after being conscripted by the government, so the status of the peasants was only that of the scholars.

In contrast, workers and craftsmen who have no land and only rely on others to work and eat, as well as merchants who rely on buying low and selling high, have become the bottom of society, let alone being officials, and it is not bad to be ignored.

But now, Gao Ming, the crown prince, actually said that he would give Lin Sen a monthly sum of five yuan, and he planned to make him an official in the future, so not only Lin Sen himself, but even the surrounding craftsmen were suddenly stunned, and the entire courtyard was quiet all of a sudden.

Gao Ming quickly understood why they were so surprised, so he immediately laughed.

"Haha, Lin Sen, I'm telling you, don't be in a hurry to be happy, as my craftsman, the part of the monthly money that exceeds two guan, but you have to hand over ten percent of the money, that is to say, after you get five guan money next month, you have to hand over three hundred wen to Su Gan Chengji."

For Lin Sen, being able to get the five-run money was like a dream, so as soon as Gao Ming's words fell, he immediately nodded his head like a chicken.

"Deliver, I will pay, thank you His Royal Highness the Prince, when I get my salary next month, I will immediately pay the protection fee of 300 Wen to Lord Sugan."

However, after hearing Lin Sen's words, Gao Ming shook his head with a smile.

"No, I forgot to say it just now, in the future, this money is not called protection money, but personal income tax, this money will be charged into the treasury in the future, as long as you pay this money, even if you make a contribution to Datang, you will have the qualification to be an official in the future, understand?"

"Being an official?"

Hearing Gao Ming mention the word "official" again, Lin Sen's eyes lit up again.

"Your Royal Highness the Prince, you said that the villain has the opportunity to become an official?"

Looking at his surprised look, Gao Ming nodded again.

"Now that my Datang is employing people, not only you, everyone present has the opportunity to be an official, and Lin Sen, think about it, you have five times a month, and there are more than 20 craftsmen under your command under your command, and you are doing things for me, aren't you an official now?"

Hearing Gao Ming's words, Lin Sen's face suddenly became happy, and then he knelt down towards Gao Ming with a "poof".

"Thank you His Royal Highness the Prince, in the future, the villain will be loyal and do his best to do things for His Royal Highness the Prince, if there is any mistake, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will be punished!"

As soon as Lin Sen's words fell, the other craftsmen around him also shouted.

"If there is the slightest mistake, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will punish him!"

Seeing this scene, Gao Ming couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"Hahahaha, good, as long as you do things well, there will be a prince covering you in the future, no one will dare to bully you, you all get up and do things!"

"His Royal Highness Prince Xie!"

After the craftsmen kowtowed to Gao Ming again, they got up to do things, and seeing this scene, Gao Ming nodded and went out with Su Gan Chengji.

After walking out of the courtyard, Su Gan Chengji laughed beside Gao Ming.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, after listening to your words, the craftsmen have worked harder."

Looking at the smiling and flattering Fu Gan Chengji, Gao Ming also nodded.

"Yes, because they are all a group of people who know gratitude, so Aki, you must know that sometimes blind intimidation is not the best way, and convincing talents with virtue is the most important thing."

Hearing Gao Ming's words, Su Gan Chengji suddenly showed a look of joy and sincerity.

"What His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said is very true, his subordinates have been taught."

As soon as Su Gan Chengji's words fell, a hundred cavalry guards suddenly hurriedly ran in from outside, and then hugged his fist towards Gao Ming.

"Your Royal Highness the Prince, it's not good, someone galloped in the street, hit the carriage you parked at the door, and the little lady who came with you was also injured."

Hearing that the waiter was injured, Gao Ming immediately became angry, his eyes widened, and he roared at Su Gan Chengji.

"What? Even my carriage dares to crash, it's really unreasonable, Su Gan Chengji, you know what to do, right? ”

Hearing Gao Ming's words, Su Gan Chengji suddenly nodded.

"I know, you have to convince people with virtue!"

As soon as his words fell, Gao Ming immediately slapped him on the head.

"Lao Tzu's women are all injured, and they still convince people with virtue, I now order you to beat that guy's out to him!"

“……”

Under Gao Ming's order, the gentleman who injured the servant didn't even have time to say a word, and was beaten into a pig's head by Gao Ming and the hundred cavalry guards who swarmed up, and just as Gao Ming was about to give the order to strip him naked and throw him into the street, he cried.

"Woo...... His Royal Highness the Prince, my little brother just wants to come and see you, why bother beating me like this, woo woo woo woo ......"

Seeing this scene, Gao Ming was suddenly a little dumbfounded.

"Uh...... Who are you? ”

"Woo, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince doesn't even remember me? I'm Duhe, woo woo woo ......"

“……”

Gao Ming doesn't know Du He himself, but he is still very familiar with the name Du He, because this guy has a very famous father named Du Ruhui.

Du He's father, Du Ruhui, is known as the "Du Duan" in the "Fang Mou Du Duan", and has the reputation of "knife and pen officer", although he helped Li Shimin a lot, but unfortunately he died too early, Li Shimin only became the emperor for three years, and he died.

People go to tea and cool, people die and the lights go out, this saying is common no matter which dynasty it is placed in, although Du Ruhui's eldest son Du Gou inherited his title of Duke of Laiguo, but he did not inherit his talent, so the Du family is now also in decline.

Du He is Du Ruhui's second son, and he is a veritable gentleman, because he married Princess Chengyang, so he also has the official position of a horse captain, in fact, to put it bluntly, he eats soft rice, and he is not wronged when he is a waste.

In history, the reason why Du He and Li Chengqian got together was actually that they smelled like each other, after Li Chengqian's rebellion failed, Du He's waste career came to an end, he was killed, his wife remarried, and he ended his life of waste.

Generally speaking, Du He was either dying, or on the way to dying, and finally died.

Thinking of this, Gao Ming's gaze at Du He was full of sympathy.

"Duhe, you have to thank me, if it weren't for me, you would have died."

Gao Ming is telling the truth, if he hadn't crossed over, then according to Li Chengqian's character of that waste, he would definitely rebel, and if he rebelled, Du He, Hou Junji, and those who were in the same boat as him would definitely die.

However, Du He was not a prophet, he did not know his own fate, and after hearing Gao Ming's words, he suddenly cried even more.

"Woo...... His Royal Highness the Crown Prince should not think that I am stupid, you hit me the hardest just now, didn't you say that you treated me as a brother? You also hit me so hard, punched me six times, kicked me eight times, woo woo woo woo ......"

“……”

Looking at Du He, who was crying heartbroken, Gao Ming suddenly let out a long sigh, and then patted him on the shoulder.

"Alas...... Brother Xian, it's right that I treat you as a brother, but who made you hurt my woman? ”

Hearing Gao Ming's words, Du He was immediately stunned.

"Just for a woman?"

Looking at Du He, who was surprised, Gao Ming suddenly nodded solemnly.

"Well, yes, didn't you hear a word? They are called brothers like siblings, and women like clothes! ”

Hearing Gao Ming's words, Du He suddenly wondered even more.

"Since brothers are like siblings and women are like clothes, are siblings not as important as clothes?"

As soon as Du He's words fell, Gao Ming raised his palm.

"Don't worry, the next sentence of this 'brother is like siblings, women are like clothes' is, whoever touches my clothes, I will cut his hands and feet!"

“……”

Looking at Du He, who was stunned, Gao Ming smiled slightly, and then patted his shoulder.

"The most important thing is that you married my sister Princess Chengyang, you know, she is only thirteen years old this year, you don't even let go of such a young child, do you say you are a beast?"

Speaking of this, Gao Ming immediately waved his hand towards the hundred cavalry guards next to him.

"Come on, beat me this beast so that his own mother doesn't know him!"

"Yes!"

Looking at Du He, who was beaten all over the ground and wailing, a smile suddenly appeared on Gao Ming's face.

"Don't you know that girls under the age of sixteen can't touch them? What Lao Tzu hates the most is you scumbags who kill the seedlings of the motherland, beat, beat Lao Tzu hard! ”

Hearing Gao Ming's roar, several hundred cavalry guards next to him beat Du He desperately, and at the same time secretly warned themselves in their hearts that they must not marry a wife less than sixteen years old in the future, otherwise it would be too wronged to beat His Royal Highness the Prince.

After fighting for a while, when Gao Ming heard Du He's screams and began to weaken, he raised his hand.

"Stop!"

Hearing Gao Ming's order, several hundred cavalry guards immediately stopped their hands, and Gao Ming walked over and raised his chin towards Du He.

"Do you know what's wrong?"

Looking at Gao Ming, who was righteous and stern, Du He's two lines of tears suddenly flowed down his cheeks.

"Woo...... His Royal Highness the Prince, although the younger brother married Princess Chengyang, but His Majesty has a life, and he will not have a round room with me until she is married, she is still in the palace now, I really don't need to touch her, woo woo woo woo ......"

Ji Xuan means fifteen years old, this Gao Ming knows, so when he heard Du He's words, he also knew that he seemed to have wronged him, so he let out a long sigh again, and then shook his head at Du He.

"Well, didn't you say you wouldn't be done? But why didn't you say it earlier? Didn't I say I wouldn't have beaten you earlier? But why didn't you say it earlier? You said it was done...... Alas, why didn't you say it earlier? ”

“……”

Listening to Gao Ming's left "Why didn't you say it earlier" and the right one "Why didn't you say it earlier", Du He suddenly showed a look of remorse.

"I ...... I ......"

Du He didn't say anything for a long time, and in a hurry, he suddenly slapped his face twice, and then showed an apology to Gao Ming.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, I'm sorry, it's all my fault, I'll say it early next time!"

Seeing that he was so "knowledgeable about current affairs", Gao Ming immediately smiled with satisfaction.

"I know you're okay, you can't do it next time, but not everyone is as good at talking as I am!"

“……”
