Section 5: Fighting the rich does not succeed in fighting the poor

But it is said that after the shepherd boy brother instigated the two sheepdogs to cross the border to recover the more than ten horses that had run over to mate, and brought back many exotic horses as dowries, the owner on the other side refused to give up, and they also instructed the sheepdogs to cross the border and try to drive the horses over.

The herdsmen living on the border know the value of maintaining peace, and will not create diplomatic disputes because of greed for small profits, and the shepherd boy's brother keeps gesturing with his hand to the other side, but the other party is still very anxious.

When Ke's staff was about to ask someone in the patrol who knew foreign words about the other party's intentions, Liu Jinlong persuaded: "Don't ask, you can tell from the tone that you want to return their horses." ”

Thanks to the efforts of the person in charge of the negotiation, he finally calmed down. In the evening, Ke's staff arranged to dig a stove and bury the pot to cook rice, and mobilized everyone to look for their familiar wild vegetables on the grass, which was really good, and finally ate a hot meal and hot dishes.

It's still warm in the nest, and although the day's training is a little tiring, everyone's harvest is great, and they have increased their ability to resist the enemy, especially Liu Sanchang, who has been impressed by Ke's staff, and is even more excited.

Liu Jinlong is also a person who loves to be lively, and Liu Sanbian, at his request, talked about a program of "Doufu" in Hangzhou. As soon as Ke's staff heard this topic, they said, there is nothing special about this, isn't it just to show off wealth, like Shi Chong, wine glasses can reflect three, six, nine, etc., gold cups, silver cups, jade cups, ceramic cups, and so on.

Liu Sanbian smiled and said: "You, you mean the general situation, you don't understand the innovative value of opera!" ”

These words are equivalent to a shot in the arm for the audience, inducing them to pay attention.

Liu Sanbian asked, "What kind of expression will the most rational and intelligent rich man have?" ”

The audience was gossiping, but mainly focused on the ways to increase wealth and enjoyment, and Liu Sanchang smiled noncommittally, waiting for new discoveries.

Liu Sanchang's eyes slipped around in the audience, and the content of the program appeared in everyone's expectations.

There is a local parent official, he moved a careful thought, want to raise funds for the local people to build a stone bridge, convenient for everyone to come and go, he thought, if for no reason to let the local rich people pledge, it is too unintelligent, can not be a good recognition of the rich people's spirit of benefiting the people, of course, he also has a layer of ulterior thoughts, that is, he failed to reflect his achievements in governing the party, failed to establish a reputation for his political achievements.

Well, this is a way for ancient and modern officials to set up monuments for themselves, and it is generally believed that with the voice of the people, you can get the official voice, which is the usual way to get political capital, Ke staff said.

"He's sure to invite his immediate boss to witness!" Liu Jinlong then analyzed, "This is the best way to achieve immediate results!" ”

"Not bad!" Liu Sanbian smiled and asked, "Guess how things will develop?" ”

The audience learned the lesson of the last time, and did not dare to speculate randomly, Liu Sanbian looked at it and said excitedly, you think, the magistrate can be said to admire his exquisite ideas, his direct expression is to decorate the stage of Doufu, create a magnificent atmosphere, and of course, it is indispensable to highlight the theme, so he asked someone to write a pair of golden couplets, the upper link is "for the benefit of the township and Zi will always stay in the hearts of the people", the lower link is "Thanksgiving to the rich and the benevolent and righteous", and the horizontal criticism is "the merit of a thousand years".

One soldier, who had probably read a book, commented: "This couplet is neatly matched, very good!" ”

Ke's staff guessed that there must have been a comfortable couch for the magistrate's immediate boss on the stage, and candy and snacks were prepared, and they would be very particular.

Of course! Liu Sanbian affirmed and asked, "Guess what, what will happen to the pledge?" ”

Can this question not be fried?

Some people say that the magistrates and the local people know who are in the rich family, that is, the so-called "your family has gold and silver, and there is a scale next door", and if you donate less, it will be considered to be rich or unkind, and if you donate more, of course, you will be considered to have a benevolent heart!

Some people say that only fools go to show off their wealth, isn't this asking for trouble, causing people to be jealous, and making many people suffer from pink eye?

Liu Sanbian affirmed that everyone's statement was reasonable. He said that the problem lies in the word "Changshi" in the couplet, you think, who dares to come and pledge.

Liu Jinlong reacted, and he slapped his thigh: "Yes, these two words can be interpreted as a good deed of building a bridge, which has long made the villagers remember the kindness of the rich; Another explanation is the bottomless pit......"

"How can it be a bottomless pit?" Someone asked.

Ke's staff explained: "'Long giving' is long-term charity! ”

A little bit, everyone suddenly realized, one of the soldiers said more vividly, he said, how rich you are, there will always be a time when you donate to bankruptcy, you donate this year, everyone said good, you have a conscience; If you don't donate next year, everyone will criticize you for being an iron rooster.

Everyone was impressed by the soldier who said this, saying that he was the son of a rich family, otherwise how could he know the rich man's mind. The soldier neither admitted nor denied it.

Liu Sanbian pointed to the soldier who said that the rich man's psychology and said, he must be a fallen son!

The soldier continued, There is still the trouble of donating too much and donating too little, and if you donate too much, you have to go up every time, until you can't resist it; If the donation is less, it will be considered that it is not only true, but also want to set up a fake archway!

When the audience asked Liu Sanbian about the fundraising, he said that none of the rich people came, but a few people called Huazi, one dressed in tatters more than the other, one more stinky and unkempt than the other, and they all wore a big and torn hat.

The audience burst out laughing, in order to turn the fight for the rich into a fight for the poor!

What's even more strange is that one called Huazi to go up and donate a money, and the other called Huazi picked it up and looked at it, recognized the seriousness and fake, put it into his pocket without hurry, pressed it, and left happily.

The magistrate accompanied his immediate superiors and waited for a long time, but there was no one, which made the magistrate extremely embarrassed and did not know how to explain to his superiors.

The magistrate was angry, and said ruthlessly in his heart, these guys who are rich and unkind, you deliberately hide your wealth and refuse to benefit the township, that's good, you can't let me get off the stage, and I won't let you have a good time, he sent someone to inquire about all the ways of the rich family's wealth, and he summed it up, these rich people have three ways to get rich: one is to do business, the second is to collect rent, and the third is to inherit the family business. So, two days later, the magistrate issued a policy to increase the tax on business and rent by three to five times, and to levy a new inheritance tax on the wealthy to be 20% of the inherited property.

The audience roared, some praised the magistrate for having a way, and some felt that he had done too much. But Liu Sanbian continued, and the magistrate also stipulated that the tax of those who donate money to repair the bridge will be increased by three times, and those who do not donate will be increased by five times, and the inheritor who donates money to repair the bridge will be taxed by one percent, otherwise it will be collected in full.

The words of repairing the bridge have been released, and the magistrate has no choice, so he will pay for the repair!

When everyone was expressing sympathy for the magistrate, Liu San changed to tell everyone that it turned out that these rich families were not all misers.

The audience waited intently for an answer. Liu San changed lanes, and some of the wealthy families who were doing business posted notices in front of the store, spent a lot of money to buy the design drawings of the stone bridge, some spent a lot of money to buy stones, and some were willing to spend a good price to hire skilled craftsmen with skills, and those who inherited the family business were no exception.

The magistrate happily took his subordinates to make an inspection, and some of his subordinates who had participated in the fund-raising were suspicious of the facts in front of them, but in fact, these rich families all went that day, some were family members, some were parents, and some were hired workers in the family.

The magistrate thought, what does it matter if I can't get off the stage, I can build many stone bridges, which is also a beautiful thing
