Chapter 80: Three Disciplines and Eight Attentions
[8o] Three disciplines and eight points of attention
Before Guo Jixiu woke up, Guo Weichang, the second elder of the Guo family, went to Jimo County twice with silver, and went back and forth for 1,000 taels. Although Zhao Jiannian, the commander of Jimo County, is nominally a student of Guo Weizhong, the eldest master of the Guo family, he complained bitterly, saying that it was too late to report the case, and now it has become a situation of ridicule, and the state capital above needs to judge the case. So the Guo family went to the Laizhou Mansion above to make a thousand taels of silver, but it turned out to be like a waste, and it didn't work. Laizhou Mansion only said that he would wait for Guo Jixiu to wake up and ask him personally.
When Guo Jixiu woke up and listened to what his second master did, he was so angry that he almost fainted again. He knew in his heart that Yao Fan's wicked people had sued first, and this matter had already been brought to a deadlock. The Guo family sells smuggled salt trees, and they are arrogant and do not respect local officials, so their popularity is extremely poor, and officials at all levels now only hope that the Guo family will continue to throw silver into it, and Yao Fan will form a situation of silver consumption, where is he willing to only charge a thousand taels to do things. What's more, after Sun Maowen received 10,000 taels from Yao Fan, he took out half of it very regularly and beat his superiors, so everyone was silent and waited to see a good show.
Guo Jixiu ordered his family to take out 5,000 taels and send them to the Yamen of Laizhou Mansion and Chen Wensheng to Laizhou Mansion.
Chen Wensheng accepted the five thousand taels, and felt that it was time to ask, and asked Yao Fan to take out some silver and give some blood, which was fair.
Who knew that before he passed Yao Fan to ask, he received a letter, which was actually written by Ding Tichang Ding Dagongzi, the first two sentences only said that last year he accompanied the old man to go down to check the mansions as usual, and after meeting Chen Wensheng in Laizhou Mansion, they got together very happily, and then they directly asked Chen Wensheng to take care of his friend Yao Fan.
After reading the letter, Chen Wensheng was frightened into a cold sweat, and immediately threw the matter of summoning Yao Fan out of the clouds, and only told Guo Jiatui that the matter was under investigation, and he would go back and wait for news.
The next day, Chen Wensheng received another letter, but it was from the Daotai Yamen of Denglai Qingdao Daodao, it turned out that the meaning of Huzhen was transmitted to the Daotai Yamen, Daotai heard that Yao Fan was covered by Lao Ding, and opened up Huzhen's door, where did he dare to ask Yao Fan and the Guo family's broken matter, and he was afraid that Chen Wensheng of Laizhou Mansion below would be stupid, and finally asked him to wipe his ass from the Daotai Yamen, and hurriedly came to the notice, which means that the relationship between Lord Huzhen Hu and Yao Fan is good, and the express letters from Jinan Mansion have been sent to my bookcase, you look at it.
In this way, Chen Wensheng didn't care about this matter, and simply instructed the yamen, "If the Guo family wants to come to send money, just accept it, and don't pay attention to him otherwise!" β
"Just to collect the filial piety that the Guo family owes me over the years." Chen Wensheng thought.
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
Yao Fan sat in Sun Maowen's back office, and said while drinking tea: "Isn't it just a rolling order of 3,300 taels, just apportionment to the big households below, didn't you do the same in previous years?" β
He Wannian said: "Jimo Wu has the most land in Jiaozhou, and at least half of it can be spread out, and half of it is left. β
The tea bowl in front of Sun Maowen didn't move, and he said worriedly: "You two only see that the rolling order can be collected, but what about the money and food?" This is a serious emperor's errand, since he has not said that he has been exempted from it until now this year, it is to copy the house and sell it, and he must also collect it. β
Yao Fan lowered his head, thinking of the scene of the tax collectors rushing into the countryside and shouting for trouble, the scene of peasants' houses about to be smashed open and the surplus grain snatched away, and the poor peasants and even middle peasants who were about to sell their sons and daughters for rations, and he wanted to say, "I have it all." But he is not a naΓ―ve fool, and doing so will do him more harm than good.
He Wannian frowned and said: "Let's take it first, and then talk about it, the first trip down, you can collect as much as you want, you don't need to use force." On the second trip, in addition to removing the official errand, Master Wei was asked to lead more troops, and the family copied it. β
Sun Maowen sighed and said: "Brother Yao has just run the Township Warrior League, and he encountered such a disaster year, alas, it is really not a brother, I will not divide you." β
Yao Fanxin said: "Are you Sun Maowen crazy? Lao Tzu still wants you to share the profits? How much filial piety have you taken from Lao Tzu? I'm embarrassed to say that it divides profits! β
Yao Fan pretended to cough dryly and said, "Since it is a royal matter, it is naturally incumbent on me Yao." Whether it's money or food, it's up to me to collect it, since Ding Junmen values me and teaches me to be ordered to set up the Township Warrior Regiment, I always have to make a contribution to the royal family, so as to show my heart of service. β
When Sun Maowen saw Yao Fanken taking this errand, he was immediately overjoyed, and praised Yao Fan's knowledge in general.
Out of the yamen, He Wannian asked Yao Fan: "Can you really accept it?" Brother Yao, this errand doesn't even take a knife like Wei Guofu, how troublesome do you think it must be. I won't coax you, according to the growth of this year's crops, this errand is a sure loss! Unless...... Unless you put your mind ......"
Yao Fan smiled: "I have my own ideas, don't worry, Brother He." β
He Wannian shook his head, not understanding where Yao Fan's confidence came from.
Yao Fan thought that he was just free now, and when the donation was finished, it would be almost September and October, and he could send the machine to Jinan for installation. If he sends the plane to Jinan now, Ding Baozhen will inevitably be suspicious when he sees that the plane shipped from overseas will arrive so quickly.
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
On the playground of Yaojiazhuang, 100 men of the Township Warrior Regiment lined up neatly, carrying dry food bags and aluminum alloy kettles cross-legged on their chests, wearing green liberation shoes and blue polyester-cotton overalls on their feet.
Yao Van Gogh explained the details of the donation collection party in a loud voice: "Guys! You hear you! Turn around and go down to the village, and speak kindly! Don't hit, don't scold! Do not look down on the poor. β
Liu Jinbao asked: "Boss, should we just bring sticks?" Why don't we go to the yamen and borrow a few knives? β
"What are you borrowing a knife for? I didn't tell you to go down and rob! Yao Fan reprimanded.
"Remember, we were all born as croppers, even if I am the owner, our ancestors are farmers who farm! You must not look down on the peasants! No matter how poor the other party is, you are not allowed to bully others. Yao Fan warned.
"Look at what the owner said, why would we look down on farming. Although the big guy became the owner's buddy and got the silver every month, he didn't forget his roots! Let's talk about it, isn't this the reason? Lehi said.
The guys responded one after another, saying that it was impossible to look down on farming.
"Yes, don't worry, boss, we will speak well and never come hard. However, if you are such a kind and talker, you may not be able to collect all the money and food. He Shicheng said worriedly.
"It's my business if you can't collect it, don't worry about this, you just need to worry about my Yao Fan's reputation, take care of my Yao Fan's face in everything, don't lose my people! Remember what I said, if people don't give it to you, don't take it! Even if it's a sweet potato, it's not allowed to take someone else's! β
"Yes!" The guys answered.
"After we go down, we must make our identity clear to the farmers, and don't be afraid of trouble! Don't be lazy! When you see someone, you have to speak! Let them know that we are the local villagers of Jiaozhou, not the emperor's soldiers, we are the people of Yaojiazhuang, not the green camp! β
"Yes!"
"I announce the three major disciplines, if anyone violates it, he will get out, and he will not be allowed to stay in my Yaojiazhuang from now on!" Yao Fandao.
As soon as they heard Yao Fan say this, the guys quickly pricked up their ears and looked nervously at Yao Fan who was standing in front of them.
"First, a qiΔ action is under command!
Second, don't take a stitch from the masses!
Third, the money and grain collected by a qiΔ must be returned to the public! β
Yao Fan saw that everyone listened carefully, and explained: "After you go down, you will do whatever you are told to do!" If you are asked to help the people carry water, you will go to carry water, if you are asked to sweep the yard, you will sweep the yard, and if you are asked to chop wood, you will chop wood! Whoever wants to talk nonsense and grind foreign workers, they are all sinister and slippery seeds, get out of me immediately! β
"The masses are the common people, they are the peasants, if anyone steals chickens and dogs, and follows the masses one melon and one fruit, no matter how worthless things they take, this person is also a lowly thief! As long as there is such a thief! Get out of Yaojiazhuang immediately! β
"Third, the money and food handed over to you by the common people are not allowed to be greedy for ink! Whoever wants to keep it private! It's a dog mongrel that will be destroyed by heaven and earth! Everyone supervises each other, reports each other, and now I will get this thief out of Yaojiazhuang! β
"Do you understand?" Yao Fan shouted.
"Got it!" The guys each answered loudly.
"Don't worry, owner! We must remember these three! Li Jun said loudly.
Yao Fan said: "Each platoon commander must supervise the members of his team!" Each team member must supervise their own platoon leader and other team members! β
Li Hainiu said with a straight face: "Don't worry, boss! If anyone has unclean hands and feet, I will chop off his paws and feed them to the dogs! We are all guys with monthly money here, at least two taels a month, some are still ten taels a month, plus the subsidy of two taels a month for Xiangyong, at least 4 taels of silver a month! Eat and drink without worry! Whoever is still blind and ruins the reputation of the owner will not lose money by beating him to death! β
As soon as these words came out, all the guys excitedly echoed: "Don't worry, the owner, we won't do anything about stealing melons and dates." β
Yao Fan nodded and said: "These three are iron disciplines, and I'm not afraid of any of you committing it, anyway, if you catch such a cheap billet, you will get out of me immediately, don't talk nonsense when the time comes." β
"Let me now say eight points of attention.
The first is to speak kindly, the second is to buy and sell fairly, the third is to pay back the borrowed things, the fourth is to pay compensation for the damaged things, the fifth is not to beat and curse people, the sixth is not to damage the crops, the seventh is not to molest women, and the eighth is not to abuse prisoners...... No, no, no, eight is not to abuse livestock. Yao Fan said and walked away, and quickly corrected it.
"To help everyone remember, I made up a song, and everyone learned to sing it! Let's go down to the village this time and learn this song along the way. Yao Fan borrowed the songs of the three disciplines and eight points of attention, and changed them slightly to facilitate the memory of the villagers.
So a group of people marched mightily, and after meeting up with the two tax collectors sent by Sun Maowen at the city gate, they marched to the nearby villages, learning to sing this new song along the way.
