Chapter 474: See through
It's fashionable to talk about things in this kind of place. Chinese people probably have this habit, such as the eight major alleys during the Republic of China. If you want to do something and find someone, you have to go to the Bada Hutong to find it, and many officials and congressmen work directly in it.
Chen Xie was a little unaccustomed to this, but he didn't care too much. It's hard for other women to say, Li Zhenli and Li Xiangjun's temperament is guaranteed. When he came to Jiangnan, Chen Xie had a whole set of plans, of course he wouldn't talk about them all here. The things that don't talk much about money here are mainly concentrated in the business community. Commercial taxes are paid, industry and commerce are encouraged, and a certain social status is given. These things came to do it in the Ming Dynasty, and there was really great resistance. Shinong industry and commerce, in the Ming Dynasty, were clearly divided into four grassroots. The set of things that Ming Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang engaged in, to be honest, was to tie the peasants to the land, so that they would not run around to make trouble.
But by the end of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang's set was definitely out of place. That's why you have to change it, how to change it? It can only be changed little by little. The quick way is either nothing, or to usurp the throne and then become emperor yourself. In the process, war and killing are inevitable. Because then Chen Xie will stand in opposition to the vast majority of the gentry. Speaking of this gentry grassroots, they are the most bastards. But if you look at it from another angle, you really can't do without them when you want to engage in capitalism in this country.
Grandpa Mao is playing very much, the construction of the country is inseparable from these people, so repair you ideologically. Let intellectuals work with shackles on their backs, to be honest, this kind of efficiency is not necessarily low. But Chen Xie definitely wouldn't do that.
Reform in a unified China has always been carried out from the top down. This is also the reason why Chen Xie has always been very firm in supporting Chongzhen. Chen Xie was very early. The layout was carried out in Gangnam. "Ming Pao" is a seed planted at the beginning. The power of public opinion really cannot be underestimated. Interestingly, the Ming Dynasty was still an era of high freedom of speech, as long as you don't say anything like rebellion, it's really casual to criticize the government or something. But there is one thing to be careful about, and that is etiquette.
Chen Xie's ability to mix smoothly in the Ming Dynasty to this point is due to the particularity of the era at the end of the Ming Dynasty. Come to the Ming Dynasty in a random period, and it will be difficult for the world to tolerate him. By the end of the Ming Dynasty, all the problems of the Ming Dynasty had been exposed. How to change. It's a question that everyone thinks about. When someone does it, and does it well, it will be accepted by some people. The more important thing is the interest factor, which is why Chen Xie wants to set up an advisory bureau.
For the business community with low social status. The status of a parliamentarian is too attractive.
Of course, democracy and freedom are such a thing. It won't and can't be taken out. This requires a huge population base to save this considerable requirement, otherwise who will understand this. If you look at the Republic of China, everyone can shout the slogan of democracy and freedom. Who really wants to do something, which one is not playing dictatorship? It is either a personal dictatorship or the dictatorship of a certain party.
Chen Xie himself couldn't figure out what kind of monster he could make in Daming. We can only do it step by step, first develop industry and commerce, allocate a grassroots level, and go to the sea to compete with Western countries for living space. Before going out, Chen Xie needs to do one thing, which is to run Jiangnan into his base camp.
"There is no such thing as a free lunch, the country needs to improve its finances, and a large number of land acquisitions cannot solve the problem by relying solely on land. So, Majesty asked me to try it. Take out some seats for parliamentarians to attract those tycoons in the business community. Let them pay for it willingly. When Chen Xie said this, Li Xiang's eyes were a little wrong.
What Mr. Sihua said is really outrageous. Something unheard of, a little inadequate in her head. It's a girl who grew up in red dust and fireworks, and it's weird to expect her to understand. Li Xiangjun and Hou Chaozong looked at each other, not because of anything else, but because of their faces. In this world, between men and women, the role of the face is the greatest.
Li Zhenli also came back, and listened to it for a while on the side, without interjecting a word. Chen Xie said this, she may not be able to understand the meaning of the aftermath, but it will definitely be touched. What can improve the social status of business people today, but what about tomorrow? Because the country needs money, can you buy social status if you have money in the future?
Li Zhenli thought it was ridiculous, but she felt that this was really good, she belonged to the lowly class, and no amount of money could improve her low social status. This is a very cruel reality, people like Li Zhenli and Li Xiangjun, who are lucky enough to be taken as concubines and raised as pets. In the future, if the master hangs up, he may be swept out of the house by the eldest woman. The women of this era are firmly bound by the etiquette, not to mention them, even if they are royal princesses, don't they have a choice. The emperor decides who to marry and whom to marry.
Li Zhenli and Li Xiangjun, the women of Hongchen, why they like Chen Xie, a big reason is "Chen Xie's work" "Stone Records", the women in this book are all living people, and the author gives them enough respect and treats them as human beings. And when getting along in private, Chen Xie's attitude towards these women is also very natural, and there is no so-called status.
Li Zhenli and Li Xiangjun were waiting on the side in person, and the others were not allowed to approach. After saying everything, Chen Xie didn't even listen to a tune, didn't drink the wine, and drank some tea.
"That's all for today, for the time being, for the time being, there will be changes, and I'm talking about other things." Chen Xie had the intention of getting up and saying goodbye, but Lao Qian didn't want to move, looking at Li Xiangjun's eyes looking at Chen Xie, his heart was not sour. Of course, he doesn't mean to be jealous, not to mention that Chen Xie is present, without Chen Xie, Li Xiangjun may not come out to see him.
Many of the talented women on the Qinhuai River are personalities. Li Xiangjun is a typical representative.
"What, sir, are you leaving?" Seeing Chen Xie stand up, Li Zhenli asked in surprise. Chen Xie nodded and smiled: "There are a lot of things, and it is inconvenient to stay." Thank you for your understanding. "Others say this, that's called pretending to be X, Chen Xie said so, and these two women believe it.
Li Xiangjun stood up and said: "The slave family will not keep Mr., but please sit down for a while, wait for the slave family to talk about a song, and Mr. will listen to it again." ”
At this point, Chen Xie insisted on leaving immediately, that is, he would not give face to the little girl. The money is not much, and he said: "Since you are here, let's listen to a song and leave." The incense fan fell into a good southern song, studied under Zhou Rusong, and the pipa talked very well. ”
How can Chen Xie understand this, talking to him about this is to play the piano to the cow. Sit down and decide to pretend to be listening as well.
"Good!" Chen Xie nodded in agreement and returned to his seat and sat down. Li Xiangjun took the pipa, owed Wanfu and said: "It's ugly!" ”
The jingling pipa sounded, and Chen Xie couldn't hear what the song was, but it was really good. At first, it was just a pretense, but then I listened. was listening, and a subordinate came in outside, waiting for the song to stop: "There is a guest visiting." ”
Li Zhenli heard this and said angrily: "What, didn't you say that you won't see other guests today?" "This is to make a show for Chen Xie.
Chen Xie listened and said lightly: "I'm going to leave here, I'm here today, things are talked about well, and the music is good." Thank you so much. Chen Xie called him by his name, which was naturally not slack, but an intimate attitude.
Li Zhenli smiled: "Sir is polite, since you are here, you might as well leave Mobao." ”
If you want to talk about calligraphy, Chen Xie really has no confidence, this thing is practiced. Fortunately, he had watched "Peach Blossom Fan", and he copied it once, so he simply continued: "The Zhulou of the sandwich road is oblique, and Wang Sunchu Yufuping car." Qingxi is full of Xinyi trees, not as good as Dongfeng peach and plum flowers. ”
After speaking, he arched his hand and said, "Farewell!" "I didn't say anything like preparing pen and ink, and I left after praising it.
Li Zhenli sent him out, Chen Xie got into the carriage, and when the gate opened, someone outside was looking at the carriage coming out, very surprised. You must know that there are many carriages in this territory, but how can anyone enter the gate of others. Li Zhenli saw the person who came, and stepped forward to Wanfu and said, "I'm sorry for the two of you, I'll wait for me to send the distinguished guests away." ”
The carriage Tata Tata went away, and one of the two people at the door with a pockmarked face grabbed Li Zhenli's hand and said, "Tell me quickly, which distinguished guest is here, otherwise I won't spare you." Li Zhenli glanced at him, opened his hand, and said with a smile: "You Liu Mazi, don't you know how to read?" There is a big word for money on the carriage, in the city of Nanjing, is there a carriage you don't know? ”
It was Liu Jingting who came, and when he heard this, he smiled and said: "Don't coax me, I naturally recognize the carriage outside Mr. Qian, but I also know that his carriage can't drive in." It's not a distinguished guest, it's a ghost. ”
Another visitor is also Li Zhenli's old acquaintance, called Yang Wencong, Zilongyou. It's a county magistrate who is dismissed at home. He kept staring at the carriage for a long time, and then said again and again: "Zhenli, speak, it's Chen Sihua who came?" ”
Li Zhenli had a look of shock on her face when she heard this, she was going to sell it, but she didn't want to be guessed. The friendship between the two was quite deep, and he told Li Zhenli the truth: "Yes, Lao Qian brought Mr. Sihua here and talked about things here for a while. It's just that I don't want others to know, so I don't want to be quiet, and I don't want to be seen through by you. ”
Yang Wencong paused and said, "It's late, it's late." If you come one step earlier, you will be able to see Governor Chen. ”
Li Zhenli smiled: "If you want to seek reinstatement, why don't you go and ask your sister-in-law?" "Yang Wencong's brother-in-law is Ma Shiying, and Li Zhenli just used this to make fun of him.
Yang Wencong was not angry, and said with a wry smile: "You don't know, after Chen Sihua arrived in Nanjing, he closed his door and didn't see any visitors. It's not that I want to see him, but Ruan Yuanhai (Ruan Dacheng) begged to see him but couldn't. ”
Li Zhenli said strangely: "Ruan Yuanhai asked to see him, why didn't he come to the door to deliver the post." Not once, just a few more times. (To be continued......)
