Chapter 53: The Vixen and the Dinner
Yun Shu felt that the thief would still come, and Yun Shu didn't plan to leave, maybe he could wait for the rabbit. Pen, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.info must find out the origin and identity of that 36D, as well as her purpose.
In fact, Yun Shu deceived himself, as a man, it is impossible not to be tempted at all by such a female thief, thinking of Ling'er and full of guilt, he used this clumsy excuse to deceive his conscience.
He hated Yun Shu of the White Lotus Sect, and used psychedelic drugs to make people lose their humanity, which was simply heartbreaking and hurtful.
Now that he knows the location of the White Lotus Sect's main altar, he is now uprooting it while his foundation is weak, otherwise there will be endless troubles sometimes! Thinking of this, Yun Shu felt the need to talk to Yang Wei, and now the only person he could trust was Yang Wei.
Idle in the county seat, Yun Shu himself walked to the city wall, the people on the city wall have begun to repair the work, watching the people use the good cement and masonry one by one, the craftsmen use self-made tools to skillfully operate, Yun Shu has to admire the greatness of the laborers.
Yun Shujue watched people work is a very pleasant thing, Yun Shu enjoys this feeling very much, leaning under the big tree and blowing the spring equinox in the warm sun, the wind is a burst of grass fragrance This is a rare leisure, what White Lotus Sect, what 36D, including the pit dug for him by Lao Dao, all of them were left behind by Yun Shu.
Lao Dao squatted on the tree from afar and looked at Yun Shu, he really couldn't figure out what Bai Yunshu was looking at, it was just some laborers repairing the city, what was there to see? Is there anything special, Lao Dao's eyes are about to pop out, and he doesn't find anything special. Rubbing his sore eyes helplessly, Lao Dao suddenly found that Yun Shu stood up, and followed Yun Shu Lao Dao to find that he was helping people push the cart, a cart was full of bricks, and an old farmer was slowly moving forward. Lao Dao was bored for a while, stood up and walked to the small food shop next to him, where he could see everything under the city wall.
The old grandson was struggling to pull the cart, and found that his car had become lighter, and when he looked back, he found that a young man was pushing the car hard, what a good young man, looking at the dress should be a scholar, the old grandson blushed and said: "This little brother thank you so much, let go quickly, look at it is a scholar who does not dare to get tired." ”
Yun Shu looked up at the old grandson and said, "It's okay, I have strength when I'm young, and I will grow it when I run out!" Uncle, this is a gentle slope, let's go up with more strength, and the road behind is easy to walk! After speaking, Yun Shu continued to push the cart.
The old grandson listened to Yun Shu's words and felt warm in his heart, and the scholars also waited to see us mud legs. Shouting the trumpet, he and Yun Shu retreated the car under the city wall.
Yun Shu skillfully picked up the tools on the ground, layer by layer of cement piled up on the wall in front of him, Lao Yang looked at Yun Shu's movements and asked curiously: "Xiao Langjun will also make this job?" ”
Yun Shu replied while plastering the cement: "I think what you made is quite simple. ”
The old grandson nodded and sighed: "Yes, this is thanks to the eldest lord and an official of Taiping Village, if they didn't just ram the earth and move bricks, they wouldn't know the year of the monkey and the month of the horse to repair this city wall!" Now with this thing, the speed is very fast, and it is easy to use, and it does not delay the spring planting, nor does it delay the apportionment of labor, which is very beautiful! ”
Seeing the happy smiling face of the old grandson, Yun Shu was secretly happy in his heart, the invention he brought could make others happy, which was really an unexpected gain.
Yun Shu and Lao Sun Tou chatted and worked at the same time, saying hello to the people around them from time to time and chatting a few words, Yun Shu's voice was mellow and his speech was also funny, and he quickly mingled with everyone. From the conversation with the Chinese people, Yun Shu learned the basic living conditions of the Yan and Song farmers.
The Taiping Village, where Yun Shu is located, is not completely agricultural due to geographical reasons, so Yun Shu wanted to know the basic living conditions of the peasants in the Yan and Song dynasties, including issues such as land production and taxation and labor, which as a historian considered to be the most important research project.
Yun Shu had heard the words of the master historian Chen Yinke before: "The culture of the Chinese nation has evolved over thousands of years, and it was created in the era of the Zhao and Song dynasties." "Now is the opportunity to experience for yourself, so good to understand?
From everyone's conversation, Yun Shu learned that the agricultural tax of the Yan and Song Dynasty was divided into two kinds: one was the land tax, which was divided into two taxes in summer and autumn, and the other was the endowment of Dingkou, which was levied on the body as the main object, and the poll tax of the past dynasties was used, regardless of whether there was land or not, all of them needed to be paid.
Yun Shu crossed over and only caught up with the autumn tax and did not catch up with the summer tax, Yun Shu knew that the autumn and summer taxes hurt the peasants, and one tax a year is actually the best choice, even if it is a little more, it will not affect the farmers too much, but even if the two taxes in the summer and autumn are not much, some families will not be able to bear it and go bankrupt, causing farmers to borrow, or sell land to large households at a low price, not to mention the disaster year, many farmers revolt because of this. Yun Shu remembered a classic line from a movie: "The common people have food and clothing, and ghosts are like rebellions!" ”
In fact, most of the change of dynasties is due to the land problem, Yun Shu remembered that there was another large-scale drought this year in history, followed by a locust plague, Yun Shu clearly remembered the description of this year's disaster in history: it is the year of drought and locust famine, people recovering from the epidemic, especially in Guanzhong! Suddenly, I remembered the White Lotus Sect.
If it really happens to be a disaster year, coupled with the instigation of the White Lotus Sect...... Yun Shu didn't dare to think about it anymore. If it comes true, the consequences will be unimaginable!
Disasters can't be said casually, but the White Lotus Sect can be eradicated, if the White Lotus Sect is eradicated first, everything is still salvageable, otherwise the destruction of the disaster will be in jeopardy with the instigation of the White Lotus Sect.
The sun slowly sank west and stingily put away the last bit of sunshine, and the old grandson insisted on pulling Yun Shu to eat in the shack, in their opinion, as long as the people who work hard have the right to enjoy this dinner, although it is a bit simple, but it can fill the stomach.
Yun Shu came to the shed and looked at the small shed full of people eating, two elderly women were using a big wooden spoon to serve food to people who had worked all day, and saw the old grandson and his party coming with Yun Shu, one of them said angrily: "The food of several of you is rationed, and this kid's food doesn't care!" ”
The old grandson hurriedly said: "This little Langjun is here to help, everyone has been working for a day, the lady of the Wang family is okay." ”
"Phew! Can I do it? Half of the size eats the poor man, and I look for someone to go to if there is less food! The lady of the Wang family said with a dissatisfied face.
Yun Shu then saw in the dim light that the facial features of this lady of the Wang family were quite standard, but her cheekbones were high, her chin was pointed, and her eyebrows were curled up, making people feel that she was a shrew who was not easy to get along with.
"Hmph, it's not that you want to keep a little more and take it home, no wonder you can't give birth to a son." An honest man next to him whispered. But his thick voice was heard by the shrew.
"You say it again?! Okay, the old lady asked my man to interrupt your lonely crutch, my man is the head of the yamen. The vixen said smugly.
As soon as the shrew's words were finished, someone said, "Why is the lady so angry!" “
Only then did everyone realize that there was a poor man squeezed in from behind, and he was the one who spoke to the shrew.
"The head of the house came just in time, and some people want to eat the food of our workshop for nothing! I've never seen this kid before, and the old grandson said that he was here to help and asked me to give him food! There is still such a truth in the world! The shrew shouted loudly, and Yun Shu could see the little tongue in her mouth.
"Hey! I can eat whatever I want, it's not our family, not to mention that people help. You can't eat the brown rice you brought home, why bother others, and it's not easy to come out to do labor, isn't it just a matter of a pair of chopsticks? Wang Tieshan said kindly.
"That's right! At first glance, he is on an errand in the yamen! The old grandson echoed, and everyone next to him also praised the official's atmosphere!
Wang Tieshan, who was held by the old grandson and everyone, said happily: "What an official, don't praise me from the old grandson, I just work as an errand in the yamen, thanks to the eldest lord who took a fancy to me and allowed me to be a team leader, hehe~ Don't sit down quickly." “
