Chapter 1008: Restlessness in the Night (I)

The end of the Eastern Han Dynasty was an era in which the scholar class dominated the country. There are many so-called celebrities in this era.

These so-called celebrities refer to a group of self-righteous intellectuals who are between "official" and "hidden".

In this era of knowledge monopoly. Due to their special social status and psychological state, they constitute a unique traditional cultural landscape. To put it simply, it is arrogant, looking down on everyone, and always thinking that the world is in their own hands.

The emergence of a large number of celebrities and scholars has a lot to do with the rise of famous religions in the Eastern Han Dynasty. Therefore, Baume & Mercier can also be interpreted as "the person of the famous religion". However, the substantive core of the so-called famous religion is still Confucianism, and it is still a stinking and hard Confucianism.

In addition to injecting the complex of entering the world and the peculiar way of dealing with the world. In the Wei and Jin dynasties, when the etiquette system was bad, they also single-handedly pushed the horses to put Nanshan and put the knives and guns into the warehouse. Preferential treatment of aliens, and even direct access to the main promoters of alien life within the Great Wall.

These celebrities are the parasites of the whole country and nation.

And Chen Qi is one of the celebrities.

Chen Qi used to be Peixiang, but he was dissatisfied with some trivial things and left. Completely indifferent to the people and their own work. Because he was born in a family of eunuchs, because he was a celebrity who monopolized knowledge. As long as he wants, he can be an official anytime and anywhere. In this case, who cares about the life and death and feelings of ordinary people?

As the top gate valve family in Xuzhou, Chen Qi was extremely angry at Gaoyang's forced repossession of land for redistribution. Because more than one-third of the fertile land near Xuzhou belongs to their Chen family.

and the age-old rich. Mi families who are good at business are different. Without a field and an official body, what else can the Chen family have left?

Therefore. In Xuzhou, the most fierce resistance to Gaoyang was the Chen family.

"Tao Gongzu has no guts and rats! disappointed the expectations of the people of Xuzhou in vain. He actually surrendered to that Gao Zihou, he is really the scum among our scholars! "Xuzhou, Chen's house. Chen Qi, who had drunk too much horse urine, burped with a red face, and angrily cursed Tao Qian, who took the initiative to surrender the city.

In Chen Qi's view, Tao Qian, who is also a scholar, did not protect their interests, which is the biggest betrayal! As for the strength gap is too big, there is no possibility of winning at all, and once he fails, he will be even worse or worse, and he doesn't know anything. This is called standing and talking without backache.

To know. As soon as Gao Yang's military order to forcibly expropriate the fields, their Chen family instantly lost their main source of income and the most important wealth.

Although it is said that there are still countless grains in the house, countless male and female servants, and mountains of goods. and larger mountains and lakes or something. (Goyang's expropriation order was only for the expropriation of fields.) )

However, greed is an original sin.

No matter how much you have now, people who will never be satisfied will still desperately pursue more. What's more, now Gao Yang has directly robbed most of the property that their family has accumulated over the years!

Chen Jue didn't dare to scold Gao Yang. Even in his own home, he didn't dare. Gao Yang's powerful voice and merciless killing made Chen Qi can only vent all his anger on others, even if he just curses quietly in his heart, he will be frightened.

To put it bluntly, these so-called celebrities are the most typical bullying of the weak and afraid of the hard. When bullying the good and the weak, all the fierce gods are vicious, and they want to take off their shirts and go shirtless. But after encountering a really ruthless character, he immediately shrank his eggs.

In the future, when the Wuhu is in turmoil, the performance of these celebrities is completely comparable to an unprecedented burlesque. One or two scrambled to kneel down in front of the hooves of the aliens, weeping bitterly and eager to lick the boots of the aliens.

"Father, that Gao Yang was too ruthless, and all our family's fields were confiscated. Not even an acre of land was left for us. Chen Qi's son, who was better than blue, walked into his father's room with a cold face. Smelling the smell of wine in the room, he frowned slightly, waved his hand to drive away all the gorgeous concubines, and said in a deep voice.

"Dangchang." A bang. The stunned Chen Jue looked at his son stupidly, with an expression of disbelief on his face, "Not a single acre left?!" ”

It's no wonder that Chen Qi is so out of shape. This era is also about harmony with light and dust, hello, hello, hello, everyone.

Chen Deng accompanied the officials under the command of Gao Yang, who came to measure and register and survey the fields, to actually look at the land and check the accounts, and brought several truckloads of goods early!

No one thought that there really were such honest people in this world.

Goods calculated by cars, dozens and hundreds of beauties and maids. The splendid mansions under the promise. These things that ordinary people can't even think of are placed in front of them. As long as his subordinates show a little mercy, they can get all of them by leaving some fields for the Chen family when they keep accounts. Chen Deng didn't think about leaving all the fields behind. He also knew it wasn't scientific. Chen Deng's bottom line is to keep one-third and strive to be able to keep half!

The idea is beautiful, the reality is cruel.

Chen Deng took three carts of goods and hundreds of beauties to the officials in charge of the inspection. As a result, people didn't even look at it!

"Where is there such a person? And it's not just one, it's the same with all the people who come together. Chen Deng, who was extremely depressed and had an extremely ugly complexion, flicked his sleeves hatefully, sat behind the desk, picked up the wine jug, and poured it into his mouth!

Thinking of the cold reception he received today, his heart instantly burned! "A group of tiny officials are so ignorant!"

The cyborg warriors don't know what face is at all. They will only do what they are told, and nothing else.

Of course, Chen Deng would not know that the natural people who dared to accept the gifts had already become unjust souls under the knife. Since the beginning of Si Li's forced expropriation of fields, it has always been a group of natural persons selected by the biochemical warriors who are responsible for the expropriation of fields.

Over this time, they have seen all kinds of coping methods. Don't talk much about playing hard, naturally there are an army of steel knives waiting.

However, those who play soft are varied, and all kinds of strange tricks come out in a row. What money treasures, what gorgeous mansions, what peerless beauties, etc., etc. What's more, there are also local heroes who send prostitutes to the biochemical soldiers......

Gao Yang was completely shocked and speechless when he got the news, this is really daring to send anything. But no one ever gave it to him.

All of the unstable minds of the natural people were grabbed and slashed by the cyborg warriors, and the cyborg warriors were absolutely impossible to be attracted to these things. They don't even have that concept in their heads! Over time, no one dares to do anything with the natural people, and it is really not negotiable.

It was too difficult to convince the biochemical warriors to betray Gao Yang's orders. If they were really able to do this, then Gao Yang would definitely leave a superweapon on this plane without saying a word, and then quickly flee back to the modern plane.

The biochemical warriors can't believe it, so who else can Gao Yang trust?

"Yuanlong." Chen Qi, whose face was pale and his lips trembled, trembled and asked, "What should I do now?" Our Chen family can't live without fields. With so many mouths waiting to eat, he is tall and thick, does he want to starve to death, can't we?! ”

This is the difference in understanding. Although Gao Yang forcibly confiscated the fields, he also made up the money. Of course, those who resist by force must not have Mao. Gao Yang's money is enough for these people to live without food and clothing for several lifetimes. The premise is that they no longer keep so many people.

In addition to the reputation and the number of fields accumulated over the years, where can the strength of the family gate valve be reflected? It's not a mountain of grain, it's not a room full of copper coins with worn ropes. And those living people!

At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the imperial court tax revenue continued to decrease, and Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty was even forced to take the initiative to sell his official position to subsidize the finances.

In the Eastern Han Dynasty, which collected taxes according to the head and land, the main source of tax revenue was the head tax and the field tax.

Before the Yellow Turban, the number of acres of land in the Eastern Han Dynasty hit a record high, and the population was also unprecedented!

However, why did Emperor Han Ling sit on such a powerful resource but still be forced to sell his official position? Even the people who couldn't bear it were easily instigated by Zhang Jiao, a doctor in the countryside, to launch the Yellow Turban Uprising that shocked the world?

The reason is simple. Most of the fields were divided and concealed by the powerful lords. The common people, too, most of them were accepted into the homes of the powerful and became tenants!

Emperor Ling of Han couldn't find anyone and land to collect taxes at all! And every tax means a big upheaval, a luxurious feast for the powerful gatekeepers. A catastrophe for ordinary people!

The more the land is taxed, the less land there is. The poll tax is even worse every year. Emperor Han Ling naturally knew what the real reason was. But although he is the Ninth Five-Year Venerable, there is no solution.

After hundreds of years of accumulation, the strength of Haoqiang gate valve has already been completed. Not even the emperor can stand up to this entire class! Unless he can have all the power of Chinese New Year's Eve like Gao Yang.

The enraged emperor chose to reuse the eunuchs and formed a new army, the Eighth Lieutenant of the West Garden, in an attempt to regain everything by force. But it annoyed the noble class, and after finally dying, they were given the nickname of 'spirit'.

After the failure of Emperor Ling's last struggle, the end of the Han Empire was already doomed.

This can be seen from the records of Shu Han. Decades after Liu Bei founded the country, Xichuan and other places have not suffered any sword soldiers.

It has always been Zhuge Liang and Jiang Wei's northern expedition to Cao Wei, and the number of people in Xichuan, where the war is outside the country, is less than before Liu Bei entered Sichuan after so many years of recuperation!

Where are all the people in the land of abundance? There's no plan for that here! Even fertility is still encouraged.

Zhuge Liang and Jiang Wei are both smart people, but why have they been desperately fighting the Northern Expedition when they know that their strength is insufficient? It's not because you don't go out to rob others that your own people kill your own people!

The Shu Han, which is in the same vein as the Han Dynasty, naturally inherited the cancer of the Haoqiang gatekeeper. Liu Bei has worked hard for decades, but he has just harmed more people.

The demise of the Han Dynasty was already doomed from the time Liu Xiu raised his army. (To be continued)
