"We can't go on like this, if we go on like this, then how can our Shi clan survive? Our gentry are the cornerstone of society, how can we make them so arrogant? Fang Qiao, we can't be patient anymore. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoSince you can't bear it, you don't need to endure it anymore. If we continue to endure and not make some moves, then how can we sit still? Cui Xin of the Cui family said in front of Fang Xuanling.

"Yes! How can the imperial court treat our scholars so harshly, don't we scholars just want to buy some land? It makes no sense that they should stop it. "That's right, can we let the court go on like this, the court is so chaotic." "The imperial court treats our scholars so harshly, it's really a mess." "That's right, we must stop this chaos, otherwise the world will be in chaos." "It's a bastard to treat scholars so harshly." ……

Those scholars began to denounce Li Shimin and Shi Bufan, thinking that Shi Bufan and Li Shimin treated the scholars harshly here, and actually formulated such a policy. In fact, it's so weird, identity determines the position, and the ass determines the head. Since they are already a scholar clan, they naturally think that the scholar clan is noble, and the court cannot treat the scholar clan badly. However, Li Shimin and Shi Bufan actually benefited the people, and ignored the idea of the scholars wanting to acquire land, which made those scholars shout and be very dissatisfied. In fact, this ancient time is so strange that future generations are completely unable to understand the strange thinking of these ancient people. This kind of plundering of the land from the hands of the people, this is what they think is reasonable. Even exploiting the people and exploiting the people to satisfy their selfish desires, this is what they dare to say openly. Even if you think that you can sacrifice the interests of the common people to meet the needs of the nobility, you can say it openly. In this era, you can justifiably say "serve one person in the world", this kind of bastard words in the eyes of future generations. Therefore, they were very indignant at Li Shimin and Shi Bufan doing everything possible to prevent them from expanding their power.

Of course, they will feel dissatisfied, so they are already very dissatisfied with Li Shimin and Shi Bufan. Shi Bufan's previous medical mutual aid, as well as various cooperatives, have almost seriously blocked the possibility of those scholars annexing land, making it much less difficult to annex land. Moreover, the business of usury has been plundered by various financial institutions under the Datang Money Federation, and the people do not borrow usury from the scholars, or even sell land to survive. The people did not despair, so naturally they would not sell the land. In this way, it is too difficult for the scholars to acquire land, which makes them very annoyed.

They think that this is Li Shimin sorry for them, and that Li Shimin is sorry for them, the social elite, the cornerstone of the country. In their eyes, sacrificing the interests of the people to satisfy them is reasonable. Ordinary people are nothing, in their eyes these people are lowly species, and they cannot be equaled with them. They don't even look down on royalty, a bunch of guys are pretentious. Now they can't continue to retreat, once they continue to retreat, then Li Shimin and Shi Bufan will be even more arrogant.

"Well, today's matter, we can't stop it directly. If we get in the way, then we're going to have a problem. We have to take a different approach, so we might as well think about it from another angle. If the Emperor wants to take care of the businessmen in the medical industry in this way, why can't we have people stop it? I think, let's mobilize merchants and scholars, and then ask the emperor not to issue this kind of disorderly government, then isn't that okay? I don't believe that the emperor can stop the public opinion. As long as the public opinion is outpouring and asking the emperor not to help those businessmen in the pharmaceutical industry so much, then we will not succeed? "Someone said.

And someone immediately said: "Didn't that Shi Bufan say that the principles of heaven are the hearts of the people?" Heavenly principles exist in the hearts of the people, so we will directly let the public opinion speak, and let the public opinion tell the emperor that this kind of chaotic government must be abolished. You can't be so partial to businessmen in the pharmaceutical industry, otherwise how can other businesses survive? ”

"That's right, all the people in the world are people, why can those businessmen in the pharmaceutical industry enjoy special preferential treatment? What's more, those who can enjoy special preferential treatment, that is, only we scholars, we also mobilized scholars to write a letter, asking the emperor not to issue this kind of chaotic government. When the public opinion is surging, I think how to solve it? Didn't he say that the principles of heaven are the will of the people? Public opinion is turbulent, then this is also the principle of heaven. ”

Many people from the scholar clan have also begun to express their stance that they must let the public opinion tell Li Shimin that the public opinion cannot be disobeyed. Public opinion cannot be disobeyed, and public opinion is to refuse this preferential treatment of businessmen in the medical industry and reduce the tax burden on the medical industry. Under the monstrous public opinion, Li Shimin would not be able to disobey the will of the people so much, and then forcibly issue such an order.

Soon, those scholars left one after another, and then all the children of the scholars in Chang'an began to mobilize. The children of these scholars began to prepare to write together, asking Emperor Li Shimin to abolish this so-called chaotic government, and not to treat the merchants in the pharmaceutical industry so favorably. No merchant deserves preferential treatment, that's their thinking. These businessmen can't be allowed to get preferential treatment from the imperial court, this is simply untrue. So they began to prepare for a book of books, and even the book of the people was ready. All the children of the Shi clan signed on it, thousands of signatures.

Of course, there are no impermeable walls in this world. Although this is mainly circulated among the scholars, the so-called emperor has three poor relatives, and it is impossible to keep it secret on such a large scale. So soon this news also began to spread to the people, and was heard by Qin Jiarui's various businessmen.

"Husband, those scholars have begged the emperor to abolish this policy of favoring businessmen in the pharmaceutical industry and supporting businessmen in the pharmaceutical industry." Qin Jiarui said.

Soon, Zhang Peng, who had just become a businessman in the Chinese patent medicine industry, also hurried to Shi Bufan's house, and then hurriedly said: "Shi Langzhong, I heard that the imperial court may issue taxes and even various supports to businessmen in the pharmaceutical industry, is there such a thing?" But I also heard that the scholars actually want to stop this policy, and they still want to go to the Book of the People? In this case, how can they count the books of the people within their own clan? They are only thousands of people, how can they represent all the people of the world? The population of our Chang'an is not less than hundreds of thousands, and they are thousands of people, representing hundreds of thousands of people in Chang'an? ”

"It's really unreasonable, not to mention anything else, although there is currently mutual medical assistance, but the pressure on the people to see a doctor is still not small. If we can further reduce the medical tax and tax, then we will reduce the business risk, and I even dare to make the decision to reduce the drug price by 20%. This is a benevolent government that benefits the country and the people, but how do they think that they should be so important to stop or even depose? Under the guise of public opinion, just a few thousand scholars, they want to represent all the people of our country? How can it be that their clan has represented all our peoples? Outrageous! ”

Zhang Peng was out of breath, because this scholar clan was simply ridiculous. He wrote a book of all the people within his own clan, and then elected only a thousand people, and it became the public opinion of the whole country? This is simply ridiculous, Chang'an City has a population of less than 500,000, and their more than 1,000 scholars represent the entire Chang'an City? Or even represent the people of the whole country? Even these people are all from the Shi clan, they are all people from the Shi clan, and it is ridiculous that they can represent people from all walks of life.

"Isn't it ridiculous? It's not ridiculous, it's not ridiculous at all, at least in their eyes, only they are 'people', their scholars are people, and ordinary people are completely ignored in their eyes and cannot become people. The people are the people, and only when they have a surname are they called the people. Do you know what people with surnames were back then? All are nobles, and only nobles have surnames. The word "common people" at that time actually meant aristocracy. And now the people have different meanings in ancient and modern times, and they have become all peoples. But in the eyes of those scholars, they have completely ignored ordinary people in their bones. In their eyes, their interests are the interests of all people. In their eyes, they are the legitimate appeal of the interests of the people. ”

In their eyes, there are only three possibilities. That is, 'First, the scholars are always right, and the interests of the scholars are also the interests of all. ''Second, the scholars are not wrong, and if the scholars are wrong, it must be that person who is rebellious. Third, if the nobles are really wrong, then please refer to the first two articles. ’”

Shi Bufan knew very well what the virtues of these scholars were. In fact, this kind of guy is the same as the later Shu landlords. The "people" in their bones are not the same thing as the "people" in the eyes of ordinary people. The "people" in their eyes are actually those nobles. is like many people who read about the affairs of the Ming Dynasty, they keep saying that they are asking for their lives for the people, but in fact they don't even know what the people need, so they go to harm the people under the banner of asking for their lives. What ordinary people need is a stable life, not to talk about it, they are very busy, courteous, righteous and shameful, and all kinds of moral norms they have formulated. But those who read thought that they were doing it for the good of the people, and even their actions had harmed the people, and they demanded that the people approve of them. In short, what they mean must be the will of the people, even if it is not in the interests of the people, it must be the will of the people.

"These guys are strong. It's just a traitor, I know this kind of play very well. Shi Bufan said.

Shi Bufan actually understands this kind of person very well, these people have nothing to do when they eat steamed buns on weekdays, and then measure the needs of ordinary people with their own thinking all day long. To use a sentence back then, that is "why not eat minced meat". They scolded everything, what hybrid rice has no nutrition, what three-season rice is not as delicious as one-season rice, so three-season rice should be banned. However, they completely ignore that there are still many people living on the verge of food and clothing in the country, and if three crops of rice are completely abolished, then all the people in the country will have to starve to death if they rely on one crop of rice.

These nobles are also so virtuous, and when they see the onset of illness themselves, they naturally demand that all people should also act according to their own standards. Those guys who don't worry about food and clothing claim to represent the people's will, but they even ignore the people's livelihood that the people really need, so they talk about the people's will. Therefore, these people who have no worries about food and clothing claim to represent the will of the people, but they only represent their own interests. In their eyes, they are the only people, and those whose ordinary living conditions are inferior to their own are not "people" anymore. In their eyes, only those who don't have to run for life and survival are considered "people", and those who are running for life are not "people", so they don't have time to speak out, so naturally they are not qualified to be regarded as public opinion.

"Strong. Treacherous public opinion, this is also accurate. But how about we, are we going to let them be so strong? Is there a traitor to public opinion? These guys are ridiculous, they are ridiculous, why don't they eat minced meat! They themselves do not have to worry about eating, drinking, and seeing a doctor, so they can ignore the interests of people who are countless times more than them. For the sake of the interests of a small number of their people, it is really unreasonable to use the banner of public opinion to make profits for themselves and then harm the people. It's really public opinion, this is really raping public opinion! ”

Qin Jiarui couldn't help but be annoyed, these people who don't worry about food and clothing actually ignore the fact that the current people's livelihood problems have not been solved, and the vast majority of the people have not been able to truly achieve their well-being, so they just demand the abolition of the policy of improving the lives of those people under the banner of "public opinion", isn't this ridiculous? Obviously, in order to cater to their own interests in annexing the land of the people, they still acted under the banner of "public opinion". They had no idea that this ancient common people were so expensive to see a doctor that even a single doctor would cost them several generations of debt. They don't care about it, they can afford to be sick themselves, they want the people to be in debt, and then they have to give them the land.

This is also the virtue of these guys, not only harming the people, but also doing things under the banner of public opinion, which makes Qin Jiarui, the "represented" person, extremely angry. A good policy, if they really stop it, then ordinary people will also consider themselves unlucky. But if it's under the banner of public opinion, it's too disgusting, right? Obviously, it is his own intention, in order to exploit the people, to harm the people, and for the interests of a very small number of his own people. If you were a real villain, everyone wouldn't be so angry. But you are actually under the banner of public opinion, strong. Treacherous public opinion, that is enough to make many people very angry.

"It's simple, since they'll be strong. If we are treacherous about public opinion, then we will come again. Strong. Treacherous public opinion, they are still a little tender, and their means are still a little worse. I'd like to show them what it means to be really strong. Treacherous public opinion. Shi Bufan snorted coldly.
