Chapter 403: Chen Zuren!
The overall life of the Song people is rich, although it is not gold everywhere, it is still very easy to find a bowl of rice to eat.
It is said that the Song Dynasty is the most like the living standard of modern 21st century New China, the Chinese dynasty. It's not false at all, being rich is capricious!
The people of the Song Dynasty had 113 days of holidays a year, which did not include family leave, marriage leave, bereavement leave, etc. In other words, the people of the Song Dynasty seized all excuses to take a holiday, and even festivals were also a reason for a holiday. Even if you are a hired worker, you can take 60 days off per year. And, in the hottest of worlds, the daily workload is halved, which is equivalent to half a working day. (Of course, not everyone can enjoy the above)!
In addition, the laws of the Song Dynasty were relatively equal and truly considered by the people.
In order to prevent tofu slag construction in construction, the ISO quality standards of public works in the Song Dynasty were not outdated in time for later generations. In terms of public security, in addition to the government's patrol police to protect the safety of the people's personal and property, it is also clearly stipulated that no trouble is allowed.
The Song Dynasty protected the property of the people, and the court was the place where the people sought protection and help. Moreover, through the scrutiny of historical materials, the people did not need to kneel in the court of the Song Dynasty.
If it's not for the personality is different, or the ambition is too big, and there is really no place to go if you really break the law.
But if you are a pirate, you have to have three insurances and one housing fund in other places, otherwise who will take such a big risk to be a pirate with you? In recent years, Chen Zuren's rising star can have such a scale, and the most basic five insurances and one housing fund have come out!
It's just that with some money slowly, the subordinates don't want to continue to blacken.
Originally, I thought that I would do the last business of the Zheng family, and then change my career to do serious business. It's just, if you want to do business seriously, who will give you ashore? Does anyone want to believe that pirates are good? Who believes!
It's too hard to be a good boss. Especially when you want a good death!
Back and forth, discussed in the cave for half a day. It wasn't until someone of his own came back outside to report that he found those people who had come down from the ship, some of them were wearing the clothes of the officials and were wearing all the armor.
Now, Chen Zuren has more and more headaches!
I've been a pirate for so many years, but I've never really killed anyone from the government. This is different from robbing and killing ordinary maritime merchants, putting a hat on your head to attack the imperial court officials, it is a crime of killing the head and stealing the family, and it will cut off the last chance of whitewashing.
(In the Song Dynasty, whether it was a bandit or a pirate, there was a dream of recruiting peace and finally being able to clear his name.) Please refer to Song Jiang, the reason why his thoughts can be passed is mainly in line with the mainstream ideas of most people who fall into the grass. )

Time flies, and the situation of the pirates is not right. The plan can't keep up with the changes, and Zhu Zilong's clone and the Zheng family's side also changed with the plan, and they have no objection to arranging more people to come over.
After a few days, almost all the sea ships left by the Zheng family at the dock in Japan came over.
Not only that, Zhu Zilong's body even transported another group of people to the dock of the Song Dynasty, ordered some van troops, and used some merchant warships of the court, and they just came over.
Now, it's interesting. It almost surrounds this place on all sides!
Chen Zuren and the others, who were hidden in the caves in the mountains, forests, and mountains, turned white with fright. As a sea coward, he pays attention to a speed and a secret at sea, and runs away when he grabs it, but now this situation can be said to be completely out of play.
I can't run, I can't fight. Even if there are hostages, Nima, Zheng Yuanwai is a maritime businessman, and he is an important figure.
But all maritime businessmen, there is no serious family, when there are people, they are maritime merchants, and when there are no people, wow! It's possible that he's a pirate. The things that the black eats the black occupy alone are worth tens of millions of kan, not including some of the treasures hidden here by the Japanese Heishomen that they have found now.
Officials and soldiers have known since ancient times, and there are more such things as covering the lid!

Thinking of this, Chen Zuren said to everyone with a remorseful expression on his face: "Big guy, you have worked hard all these years, and now this good thing will become a bad thing whenever you see it!" Brother, I regret it too! But now that I have robbed and robbed, the sea route outside Ning is no longer passable. It seems that we can only resign ourselves to fate! ”
"What my brother said, let's rob everything, what are you afraid of, it's a big deal, let's go to Fusang Island inland, find a powerful daimyo to be a retainer, or directly behead that daimyo. Presumably, with the strength of my brother and us, no matter how bad we are, we can mix under a big name, and one person is above ten thousand. We won't suffer either! A small leader was obviously Chen Zuren's confidant, and he comforted.
Some other leaders on the side who had other thoughts, such as Liu Er, the second leader with a black face, but after hearing this, their faces were not good.
What daimyo? Fanbang is the size of a feces, and he dares to be the king?
If you give birth to a daughter, you dare to call it a princess, but she is a village chief!
It is said that this 10,000 stone can be called a king, which is the so-called daimyo. One stone is equal to 120 catties, and 10,000 stones is 1.2 million catties. It is a bit difficult to estimate the consumption of food. Generally, a soldier will eat about one catty of rice a day, and at least 1.5 catties when he is on an expedition to fight.
But this is only theoretical data, 10,000 stone daimyo can raise a hundred standing samurai, according to the size of the Japanese Sengoku territory, the territory is several villages or a small county.
If it's too far away from Heiankyo, 10,000 stone daimyo may not be better than a few thousand stone banners, and the banners don't need to run back and forth in the Edo territory, and you don't need to raise too many samurai and a family.
Such a big name, minus the expenses of attendance and accounting, is basically a poor person.
The little daimyo of 10,000 stones has no place to live in the city, so he can only live in the array house, and he is still under such a person, and he is a god. You might as well continue to be a pirate!
Even if it was a daimyo of 100,000 koku, the grain that his peasants eventually handed over was about 50,000 koku. After replacing the consumption, the merchant has one hand in and one out, and at least about three or four percent of it has to be peeled off.
Seven-fold and eight-fold deductions, and the final purchase is estimated to be 5,000 to 10,000 taels of silver at most. Nima's, it's better to have this hostage Zheng Yuanwai in his hand now!
Of course, everyone has their own pursuits, and there is disagreement among the pirates. For the sake of freedom, some people are willing to work under the Japanese daimyo, or they are willing to become mobile daimyo!
After all, it is better to be the head of the chicken than the queen of the cow. There are many people who want to do this, but one thing is certain. There will be many people who disagree!
At this moment, the situation Chen Zuren was facing was really more difficult to make a decision than Song Jiang on Liangshan. It's also more difficult to decide, but you can guarantee that your subordinates are one heart!
His eyes swept over the faces of the dozen or so leaders and those small leaders under the seat, and Chen Zuren felt a sense in his heart. Stood up and said: "Now that I have come to this point, I, who is the big boss, can be regarded as explaining the words and setting a rule, if there is any brother, I can think of a way to get the best of both worlds, so that the brothers can tide over this difficulty." Afterwards, my brother and I will give up this position as the big boss......"
