Xu Chongguang was stunned, and didn't even react. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info He thought that the little emperor would be considered a success when he saw it, but he never thought that the little emperor would actually accept it! Xu Chongguang couldn't turn his head for a while, just wanting to see if the sun was rising in the west today. He looked outside the hall, and by the way, it was a cloudy day and there was no sun.

Lu Chengqi was also confused by Xu Chongguang's actions: "Xu Qing, is it impossible for someone to eavesdrop outside?" "The Vertical Arch Hall is the most secret place in Dashun, there are heavy guards outside, if someone really eavesdrops, it will be terrible, and the entire palace will have to jump around. After all, those who dare to sneak into the palace must be masters of martial arts.

Xu Chongguang finally figured out what was going on, presumably because this little emperor attached too much importance to business, so he wanted to regulate the industry. The little emperor also asked what the solution was, but on the surface he was silent, thinking that he was already confident. After working with the little emperor for more than two years, Xu Chongguang has gradually figured out his temperament, and he sighed again and again in his heart.

"Back to Your Majesty, the minister does have some ideas, but it's just ......"

Lu Chengqi said with a smile: "There are no outsiders here, but it doesn't hurt to say it, I will listen to you." ”

"Don't dare!" Xu Chongguang hurriedly said, listen to him, he doesn't have the courage to do this. "The minister thinks that to deal with profiteers, the main thing is to punish small punishments and big commandments, and to supplement them with benevolence and righteousness."

Lu Chengqi was stunned, he didn't expect that this little old man actually respected the rule of law. The small punishment and the big commandment make it clear that it is necessary to use a heavy code: "I want to hear it in detail!" ”

"In the previous dynasty, several people entered the wine shop, the taste was sour and light, and they laughed at this wine. One person said: 'Wine, where it comes, Tengteng loses it. They asked the clouds, 'What is the meaning of this?' Answer: "There is water." The minister thought that such a person, once there was real evidence, could be arrested and brought to justice, and he would be beaten with twenty rods and ordered to be changed. If not, replace it. Xu Chongguang said lightly, and Lu Chengqi watched it for a while.

Cane blame, it's not a joke. There are many ways to do this, and if the sin does not lead to death, then strike lightly. If you hit him the back, and you don't get ten rods, you will definitely die. Even if the body is strong and can hold on for a while, it will hurt the muscles and bones. The place where you hit is also particular, if you hit the buttocks, there is a lot of meat, and you can resist some beatings, even if it is heavy, it is just a skin injury. If you hit the back, it will be miserable, hurting the internal organs, even if the injury is healed, it will leave a dark wound, when the sky is cloudy and raining, the pain is unbearable. What's even worse is that if it is not corrected, then the assets will be confiscated directly, which is simply asking for people's lives!

Xu Chongguang said it lightly, Lu Chengqi was shocked when he heard it, and said in his heart: "I never thought that this little old man was so ruthless!" ”

But he also knows that some people can do anything under the influence of profit. In the future, there will be fewer such food safety problems! Small punishments and big commandments, you have to get them! If you don't have to repeat the code, I'm afraid that these profiteers will really "emerge". After all, there are still too few people who can resist the temptation of money.

"Xu Qing is reasonable, in addition, I remember, there are still people who are short of catties and short taels......" Lu Chengqi is a reborn person, and he is not unfamiliar with this behavior of missing catties and catties. In the future life, if you go to the vegetable market one day and don't lie to you, you won't be doing business.

Xu Chongguang was a little disapproving, because there were not many people who were short of catties at this time. This has to start with one word, "half a catty and eight taels". As we all know, at this time, one catty was sixteen taels, and half a catty was eight taels. Why is it so troublesome to get a hexadecimal instead of a decimal? There's a lot to learn here.

At this time, the scale has a weighing pan, a weighing hook, a weighing stone, a rope, and a weighing star. There are sixteen scales on the scale, each of which represents one tael, and each tael is represented by a star. These sixteen stars all have origins, seven stars on the scale pole represent the Big Dipper, six stars represent the Southern Dipper, in addition to these thirteen stars, there are three stars, respectively, representing Fu, Lu, Shou three stars. If the merchant weighs the goods to the customer and gives one or two less, there is a lack of "blessing"; If you give two taels less, it means that you lack both "blessing" and "lu"; If you give less than three taels, you will lack "blessing", "lu" and "longevity". At this time, the people were very particular about karma, which can be called a great poisonous oath.

There is a big star between the rod scale rope and the lucky star, when the weighing stone is hung in this position, and the weighing pan has nothing, lift the rope, then the weight of both sides is equal, and the weighing rod is balanced. This big star is called the "fixed star". "Fixing star" is given the meaning of fairness, justice and openness, and it is also the zero scale on the scale rod.

Although some people believe in karma, there are also people who don't care. When business becomes the norm, such a thing is nothing. In front of the silver coins of white flowers and the bright gold coins, what is the conscience? Why did Xu Chongguang suppress business? Because businessmen have no moral bottom line, as long as they can make money, they will even sell their daughters! Of course, this kind of loss of conscience and disregard for ethics cannot be recognized by the mainstream culture at this time, that is, Confucian culture, because Xu Chongguang has never had a good impression of businessmen.

Since the little emperor asked what to do if there was a shortage of catties and two catties, Xu Chongguang thought for a while before replying: "The private rulers and scales in the cities are leveled, and the Yijin Department and Taifu Temple are leveled in August every year, and the state and county where the people who are not in Beijing are leveled, and they are printed and signed, and then listen to it." It shall not be used without the seal of the government. If it is useful, the rod shall be twenty. Your Majesty may set up inspections and inspect them more than once a month to prevent loopholes from ......"

What Xu Chongguang said is that all official and private weights and measures must be sent to the relevant government for inspection and correction in August every year. The weights and measures instruments that have been inspected and calibrated shall be signed and sealed by the relevant government before they can be used. Therefore, if the wooden ruler used to measure the cloth and the copper scale used for weighing do not meet the legal standards, the owner will be fined.

This is not over, Xu Chongguang continued: "...... All traders who use false and indiscriminate things have no officials; Those who are short and narrow will return to the master. "That is to say, if the length of the whole silk is less than 40 feet, or the width is less than 5 feet, the cloth seller will be punished by the board, and the assets will be confiscated, which is really ruthless!

Lu Chengqi felt that it was nothing, if the laws were so strict in later generations, it is estimated that no one would dare to be short of catties and pounds, adulterated and faked.

"How do you do shoddy?"

Xu Chongguang immediately said: "If there is a contract as evidence before the money and goods are paid, if there is a suspicion of shoddy goods within three days, the buyer can return the goods, and the seller must return the money." If not, the buyer can report to the official. Once it is determined that the seller is at a loss, he will be forced to return the goods and be flogged forty times. ”

Lu Chengqi said in his heart: "Hehe, this little old man is really black, and he will whip others after returning the goods." I like ......, though" (To be continued.) )
