Commuter passes, is there still a commuter pass? For the sake of Rollo's desperate efforts, let's give Rollo all the guaranteed tickets

Taking people is a trivial matter.

The displaced people who have now gathered on the banks of the Qiantang River do not want to rebel, but to survive...... And they don't want to be military households, because going to the northeast and northwest to be military households is a life of death. And they are not very willing to go to the Northland to be tenants, because the people in the Northland are not familiar with the land, and these tenants cannot afford to pay for the journey. What they want is actually a poor and stable way to live.

Therefore, as long as Chen Dexing can give such a way to live, these homeless people will not make trouble, and any redress for grievances and permanent tenants will become a shadowless thing.

At that time, those Xiucai who instigated the poor people to make trouble would have no cover, and dozens of Lin'an Mansion arresters would soon be able to take them down, and there was no need for the Eighth Brigade at all, and the army was only mobilized just in case.

The way to live for the poor households in Jiangnan has long been prepared. A joint venture firm called "Caoyun Gongxing" has been listed and opened in Jiangdu. Caoyun Gongxing, as the name suggests, is a company that does Caoyun business, not running boats on the canal, but is directly responsible for operating and building the canal! It is similar to the toll highway in later generations, one is to build roads and the other is to build rivers to collect tolls.

The difference is that Caoyun Gongxing has a larger business and a wider range of business. In addition to the operation of the Grand Canal, there are two major areas: construction industry and real estate industry.

The construction industry includes the excavation of canals, the repair of rivers, and the construction of cities and houses. Not only the purchase and sale of the canal was carried out by the Caoyun Public Bank, but also many projects in the Jiangdu City and several large cities along the canal would also be contracted to the Caoyun Public Bank.

Naturally, the real estate buying and selling of Caorun also revolves around the canal. The focus of the investment is on the land around the important wharves along the canal. Naturally, the vicinity of the important canal wharf will develop into a commercial port, as is the case along the Jiangnan Canal.

In fact, at the time of the Northern Song Dynasty, the big cities along the Central Plains Canal were more prosperous than those in the south of the Yangtze River today. If it is peaceful again. The Central Plains along the canal is also likely to regain its former prosperity in the coming decades. The investment of Cao Run can also be very profitable.

The purpose of Chen Dexing's proposal to repair the Grand Canal as soon as possible is also to accelerate the economic recovery of the Central Plains. Although his eyes have been set on the world, it does not mean that he does not want the Central Plains, the fundamental place where the Chinese nation was founded.

Therefore, Chen Dexing has been planning for a long time, and he started planning before pacifying Jiangnan. However, such an unprecedented joint venture of imperial businessmen and princes has a capital of more than 10 million yuan. Of course, it can't be opened with a pat on the head.

It is necessary to plan carefully, prepare repeatedly, and draw up the corresponding regulations. Not only the articles of association of the public bank, but also the contract between the imperial court and the public bank, a large number of things, plus the open recruitment of commercial shares, can not be done in a year and a half.

Therefore, until now, Caoyun Public Bank has only hung up a card and has not officially started operation. Moreover, the restoration of the Grand Canal has not yet begun -- if the four major projects of the canal, Huanghuai, Jiangdu, and Beijing had been in full swing, then the "revenge campaign" probably would not have happened.

……

The south bank of the Qiantang River. Near the wharf, at this time it was already a sea of people, and the black pressure was overwhelming, and there was no edge in sight. All of them are ragged and ragged, supporting the old and the young. Everyone craned their necks and looked in the direction of the Qiantang River, as if they were waiting for someone. Everyone's faces were a little apprehensive. There was also some expectation.

Just an hour ago, dozens of officers and soldiers of the Guards in steel armor. Coming from the other side of the Qiantang River, it was announced that the Ming Emperor Chen Shengren would come to listen to everyone's complaints!

The Son of Heaven personally came forward to accept everyone's appeal, which seemed to be an unprecedented thing! The Zhao official family of the previous dynasty was already relatively close to the people, but they were only scholars and doctors. It often happens that the Tai students write books, but the common people petition the Son of Heaven and appeal, as if they have never been.

As for the previous generations of the Son of Heaven. I have not heard of anyone who will accept the complaint of the ordinary people. The path of this Chen Shengren is indeed somewhat unexpected.

The voices of discussion rang out throughout the crowd.

"Will the saint really come to see us bitter peasants?"

"Probably will? Didn't those iron men just say that the saint was going to come by boat, and he listened to our grievances on the boat. ”

"There should be a way to survive now, right?"

"There must be a way to live! A saint wouldn't tell us to die, would he? ”

"Yes, that's a saint. Not the corrupt officials below! If the saints knew how the officials below harmed the people, they would not be spared! ”

It seems that the Chinese's loyalty mentality has been consistent for thousands of years. Most of the so-called officials are greedy, most of the emperors are good, corrupt officials are always blinding the emperor, as long as the emperor knows about the people's suffering, he will definitely come out to uphold justice.

And for the common people, the biggest difficulty is that there is no way to let the emperor know the truth. So it is really touching that an emperor with such a strange way as Chen Dexing suddenly came out, and he was willing to leave the deep palace to listen to the poor people.

All of a sudden, positive energy filled the entire south bank of the Qiantang River, and all the poor people forgot who made those military household soldiers, nor did they remember who formulated and promulgated the law that allowed the landlords to quit their tenants and drive them out......

At this time, an official ship flying the sun and moon flag with a gold background appeared in everyone's sight. The "iron soldiers" who maintained order on the wharf and on the river bank suddenly shouted in unison: "The saint has arrived!" The saint has arrived! ”

"Hooray! Hooray! ”

The people also erupted in earth-shattering cheers, as if the grievances they had suffered in the past year had nothing to do with the emperor sitting on the official ship. And the emperor didn't know it, as soon as he knew the truth, the suffering of the people would end immediately.

The cries of the poor reached the ears of the talented people who were standing on the docks and were ready to be martyred.

"Hmph, let's shout hooray now! Maybe you won't be able to cry later! ”

A Xiucai from Dinghai Yimen said coldly. His words seemed to ignite the righteous indignation in the hearts of the talents, and everyone's chatterbox was opened.

"Let's see what he does! That's a petition from more than 100,000 people! Kill them all...... Blood and water can dye the Qiantang River red! ”

"He didn't dare to kill, he killed hundreds of thousands of people at once, and everyone in Jiangnan was indignant, will his Ming Dynasty last long?"

"If he doesn't kill the people here, he will kill the soldiers who drive tenants and harm the people! I will also kill the people in public! ”

"That's right! Kill ...... in public."

As one of the initiators of this movement, Fang Kesi Fang Si Xiucai, at this time, just put his hands behind his back, looked at the river from a distance, and did not participate in the discussion of the talents. However, on the corner of his mouth, there was a victor's smile.

Because in his opinion, this "campaign to redress grievances" has been victorious. Hundreds of thousands of poor people can petition the Son of Heaven, and they have met the Son of Heaven, which is a victory in itself!

This shows that the common people have the right to appeal to the emperor Lao Tzu -- as long as there are enough people, the emperor will receive them.

Moreover, Chen Dexing will definitely not let the iron soldiers kill people after meeting the common people. The emperor is not so deserved, and if he wants to kill people, he will not let people come to Lin'an. Since this Emperor Chen let everyone come, he must give some benefits.

In other words, ordinary people will get some benefits by appealing to their grievances! Then, in the future, there will be a second or third grievance......

Petitioning and appealing is actually a way to make trouble!

Trouble does not have to be rebellion and murder, in the former Song Dynasty, the Tai students, Beijing students and martial arts students did not make much trouble. Either attacking the courtiers, impeaching the magnates, or arguing about the government in vain, all in the form of the above book, and will also launch a polemic in the clear stream of Shilin in Lin'an.

A group of "unofficial imperial history" can still make the ruler lose his official position, and he can still make the Son of Heaven jealous.

Now the scholars are not popular, and there is no place to speak. However, Chen Dexing set a precedent for the poor people to petition.

That's victory! Even if you lose your head for this, it's worth it!

Thinking of this, Fang Sixiucai Fang Kesi suddenly laughed three times: "Fellow scholars, today is the time for my generation to make a name for itself!" You might as well sing a song to be ambitious! ”

"Good! Just listen to Enke! ”

"Enke, what song are we singing?"

"How about singing the same song?"

"Good!"

……

"The road is also a trip to the world. Selecting the virtuous and capable, stressing faith and harmony, so that people do not only kiss their relatives, do not only have their sons, so that the old have the end, the strong have usefulness, the few have growth, the widows, widows, lonely and the sick have all have support......"

The melodious tune and high-pitched singing voice came from afar and entered Chen Dexing's ears.

"Someone singing?" Chen Dexing was stunned.

What's going on? How can anyone sing? There is no provision in "Chen Li" to sing when you see the emperor Lao Tzu, right? And it is not the national anthem of the Ming Empire that has not yet been promulgated, "Praise of the Ming King".

"Sage, someone is singing the "Song of Datong"." Yang Po'er, who was waiting beside Chen Dexing, had sharp ears, and she had already heard the gist of the lyrics.

""Datong Song"? It's ......"

"It is in the Book of Rites. The words of "Rites and Fortunes" will also be sung by slaves. Yang Po'er explained softly, "I don't know who composed the music, so I named it "Datong Song", some scholars like to listen to it, so the high-grade Qinglou Xingdu will sing it." ”

"Singing "Datong Song" ......" Chen Dexing certainly knows "The Book of Rites. In fact, he is a scholar himself! He can recite the Confucian classics, otherwise he would not have tossed out the "Fu Zhou Ceremony", and later "made the Chen Ceremony". Those things he made were actually inherited from the Western Zhou Dynasty, and they were probably closer to the way of Confucius and Mencius than the Confucianism of the Song Dynasty.

"What does it mean for them to sing 'Datong Song'?" Chen Dexing was already keenly aware of what was wrong. "Datong Song" describes an ideal society that is very close to the communist paradise, and now there are people singing "Datong Song" to welcome them, or at a poor people's petition meeting......
