Chapter 34 The Tiger Sitting on the Ground

Reform is the last word,

Han, Zhao, and Wei's reforms were particularly thorough, and they were the most hardened, and later Zhao destroyed the Fan clan and the Zhongxing clan, forcing them to flee from the Jin kingdom with their tails between their legs.

At the end of the Spring and Autumn Period, the Zhi clan was the most powerful, and the Zhao clan saw that one mountain and two tigers were incompatible, not to mention the five big insects, so the Zhao clan and Han Wei were intimately united, fought side by side, and eliminated the Zhi clan.

The long-term annexation war of the Qing Dafu of the Jin Dynasty came to an end, and the three families of Zhao, Wei, and Han were canonized as princes by King Weilie of Zhou. In 376 BC, Han, Zhao, and Wei abolished the last monarch of the Jin State, Jing Gong of Jin, and finally completed the process of dividing the three Jin families. It is hard to cut a box of fragrant cakes into three pieces, cut well, cut right, the cake was originally used to eat, not to see, cut and eat, in order to taste the inner taste.

The division of the three Jin families was the result of the social change of the Jin Kingdom in the form of the struggle between the old and new forces, and was one of the important symbols of ancient Chinese history from the Spring and Autumn Period to the Warring States Period. It can also be seen from the course of history that only by reforming society can there be an impetus to move forward.

The words are a little far, so let's go back to the dynasty of the Great Song Dynasty and follow the footsteps of Luda.

Luda led the horse into Qinyuan City, because he had just finished eating outside the city, so Luda was not in a hurry to find an inn to rest,

Ruda, who was not in a hurry to rest, led the horse and walked slowly along the street, looking at the scene of the street passing by, and appreciating the customs of Jindi.

Although the two sides of the street are not lively, restaurants, teahouses, small merchants, hawkers, you buy and I sell the shouts one after another, one after another, wave after wave, it sounds lively;

The stalls along the street are lined with green vegetables, fresh fish, poultry with bright feathers, colorful cloth and satin, one red, one green, one blue, and one purple.

Seeing all this, Luda also had a lot of emotions in his heart, and produced a kind of hope and yearning.

Hope is born in the eye, and desire comes from the heart.

The ** of life is something that everyone has,

It can be said that it is the most ordinary idea in the world, but it is full of the most ardent expectations and desires.

Like walking in the vast desert, the camel carrying the load, looking forward to the scene of seeing the oasis again.

Like sailors sailing in the vast ocean, looking at the sailors, the soul is haunted by the quiet and warm harbor.

Ruda walked slowly along the lively streets, walked past these stalls full of daily life, turned a street corner, and saw a leather stall in front of him, which is difficult to see in ordinary bazaars.

These stalls are set up by local hunters, some of whom place their various hides on simple platforms, some on the ground, and some simply on their shoulders.

Ruda grew up in a mountain village in Kansai, so he has an indescribable love for these leather goods, and although he doesn't want to buy them, it's good to look at them.

Ruda approached two young men with animal skins on their shoulders.

The two teenagers looked like a pair of brothers, the eldest was fifteen or sixteen years old, with a tiger's head and a tiger's head, and the younger was twelve or thirteen years old, half a head shorter than the elder brother.

Seeing Ruda coming over, the older young man said, "This big brother, do you want to buy skins!" I've got good foxes, roe deer skins, and wolf skins. ”

Ruda stretched out his hand and touched the skins and said, "Sure enough, they are all skins that are beaten in winter and cooked with good craftsmanship." ”

The young man said: "The eldest brother is really an expert. These are all set by me and my brother after entering the winter, and there is no damage on the leather surface. You buy three or two of them, and you promise not to lose money. ”

Ruda said: "I'm just looking at it casually. ”

The young man said: "It's okay to take a look, don't buy it this time, buy it next time." It's good to be familiar with each other if the deal doesn't work. ”

Luda patted the young man on the shoulder and said, "Haha, at a young age, he is very good at talking, just like an adult." ”

While the two of them were talking, they saw three people dressed as men coming from the street, and the first one who looked like a thin monkey shouted in a broken voice: "Donation, old and young, donate." ”

As he shouted, the three tolerances started from the stalls on the street, one by one, and one stall after another, they collected and donated.

During the Great Song Dynasty, there were not so many such donations and taxes, but in the first year of Zhenghe ten years after Song Weizong became emperor, the old foundation accumulated by the original dynasties was already empty after ten years of defeat by Zhao Ji of Weizong, and the financial income was even more than enough to make ends meet, so the emperor began to change his methods to collect people's wealth.

What fishing tax, forest tax, hunting tax, bridge toll, toll, almost confiscated the talking fee, because there was no telephone at that time, and there was no mobile phone, so he was just smart and couldn't make a name for it, and the whole name of the phone bill.

Today, these three tolerances come to the leather market to collect the hunting tax and the transaction tax, because the hunters live in the deep mountains and old forests, so they can only come to the market to collect what hunting tax.

The leader of the tolerance, surnamed Gou, named Jingjun, what can the dog do to respect the gentleman, only with a big mouth and a big bark, so this Gou Jingjun's daily task is to rely on the identity of the official tolerance, with two followers, fox fake tiger might, along the street shouting five and six, door to door, next to the stalls to collect donations and taxes, by the way, a fake public and private, to fill the pockets.

Don't look at this guy's long monkey skinny, but people have a well-known nickname that scares you to turn your head: Sitting Tiger, Sitting Tiger, is the head snake, because the size of the person is also a person in the government, and it is too bad to call a snake, so it is called a sitting tiger.

Sitting on the ground Tiger Gou Jingjun, Duo Niu B's name plus a nickname, that dare to provoke, that dare to move.

This is a character that no one dares to provoke casually, of course, who wants to be like a dog. If you give a dog a bite, you can't go back and bite it.

Gou Jingjun stretched out his hand in front of the young man and said, "Young man, take the money." ”

The young man frowned, and reluctantly took out three pennies from his arms and handed it to Gou Jingjun's hand.

Gou Jingjun looked at the money in his hand and said, "Why is it just a few dollars." ”

The boy said, "Isn't that enough?" ”

Gou Jingjun said: "These are only enough to pay the hunting tax, and there is also the transaction tax." ”

The young man said: "My brother and I haven't sold a single leather since early in the morning, why should I be asked to take the transaction tax." ”

Gou Jingjun said: "Why? If you stop here, you'll have to pay the transaction tax. I don't care if you sell the skins or not. ”

The young man said, "You are still unreasonable. ”

Gou Jingjun said: "Be reasonable, are there any reasonable people now, if you want to be reasonable, you go to the Jinluan Treasure Hall of the Long Live Lord to speak." ”

The young man said: "How about love, I didn't sell the goods, but I didn't pay transaction tax." ”

Gou Jingjun said: "Hey, I see that your kid is a toast and doesn't eat and drink, and no one has ever dared to say no words in front of me sitting on the ground. ”

The young man also came to temper his temper, and said with a stiff neck: "What can you do if you don't pay." ”

Gou Jingjun said: "Little rabbit, I think you are still capable." He twisted and said to the two henchmen behind him who were as strong as oxen: "Brother two, you can watch it." ”

The two attendants didn't say a word, raised the iron chain in their hands with a bang, put it around the young man's neck and said, "Let's go, don't you want to be reasonable, let's ask you to go to the county master to be reasonable." ”

As soon as the young brother's brother saw that his brother was covered, he threw down his burden, rushed forward, opened his mouth, and bit the arm of the man who was chained at once, and the guy howled in pain, "Mom, bite me to death." He raised his leg and kicked the boy in the chest, causing him to fall to the ground.

The locked boy saw that his younger brother was kicked to the ground and shouted, "Brother." He reached out and unchained his neck, and slammed it on the head of the guy who kicked him, causing his head to bleed.

When the sitting tiger saw it, he shouted loudly: "You kid still dare to violently resist donations." He raised a stick he was carrying and said to another man with a chain: "What are you doing there, this kid has rebelled, and he will beat me to death." ”

A young man of fifteen or sixteen years old, who was the opponent of two fierce and wolf-like fellows, saw that the young man was about to fall under the front and back of the iron chains and sticks.

Ruda shouted, "Stop." ”

Hearing the shouting, the sitting tiger stopped and said: "Boy, you are a lynx beast from there, dare to shout in front of Gou Ye, Ye is arresting the thief." ”

Luda said: "What kind of anti-thief is there under the blue sky and white sun." ”

Gou Jingjun said: "Don't you see that this kid resists and doesn't pay, resisting donations is rebellion, rebellion is not a thief, what is it?" Could it be your father? ”

Luda said: "You kid wipe my mouth clean before talking, don't spray feces all over your mouth." ”

Sitting on the ground, Gou Jingjun said angrily: "You kid is the stone that popped out of the thatched pit, smelly and hard, jumping here to pretend to be a hero, now you are in the wrong place." ”

Ruda said-for-tat: "Are you a little ghost here, and you can't eat people." ”

Zaihu said: "Although I can't eat you, I still have the right to put you in prison for ten days and half a month." ”

Luda said: "I'll see how you can put me in prison for ten days and half a month." ”

Sitting on the ground tiger said: "Yo, you kid is really a dead pig who is not afraid of boiling water, play with me." I'll let you cross to the bottom. ”

After that, he raised the family in his hand and smashed it with his head and face, Luda snatched the short stick in Gou Jingjun's hand, and suddenly inserted it into his dog's mouth, so that this guy's mouth full of big teeth fell into his stomach, and the other man saw that things were not good, and opened his throat and shouted: "Come on, someone, someone killed the official and rebelled." ”

Hearing the shouting, a few officials who were patrolling the street not far away ran over, and Luda hurriedly got down and picked up the injured young man who fell to the ground and shouted to the older boy: "What are you doing there, don't run quickly." ”

The boy ran blankly behind Ruda towards the city gate, and the soldiers guarding the gate heard shouts in the distance, and before they could close the gate, Ruda and the others ran out.
