50 private gangs

Is the world in chaos?

Hardly. Because there are many aspects.

The current Tang Imperial Army is the team of the Dongming Imperial Army, that is, the former Communist Army, and further on is the Qian Family's Army. Their commanders change frequently, but the soldiers don't. After the Tang Dynasty killed all the "foolish" officers, the remaining soldiers formed the Tang Imperial Army. Now, the nominal direct commander of the imperial army is Zhang Qiangsheng – but it is difficult to say that he can command it.

The current Tang Forbidden Army is the team of the Dongming Forbidden Army, and it was selected by Zhu Zhaoding from the Gongzhi Army. He castrated them all by the method recorded in the "Law of Rule", and changed their purpose in life to only one: allegiance to Zhu Zhaoding. - Of course, Zhu Zhaoding is dead. Now the nominal commander of the forbidden army is Zheng Anmin, but it is difficult to say that he can command them.

The Tang Imperial Army and the Tang Forbidden Army were only stationed in the barracks of the Great Chang'an District. In charge of the defense of Gyeonggi was actually the Liaodong Army and the Yangjiafu Army. In charge of public security in Gyeonggi are the ministries and the Jinyiwei.

Now Gyeonggi is in a state of chaos. Pay attention to the word, chaos rather than chaos. Chaos refers to people not knowing who to listen to, and chaos refers to killing people in a hurry.

For example, the private gang often fights wars. However, they are fighting themselves. For example, the Salt Gang has the Chang'an Salt Gang, the Sichuan Salt Gang, the Central Plains Salt Gang, the Jiangnan Salt Gang, etc., they fight each other, and they are almost bloody. The imperial army did not care about this. As long as it is not a rebellion, the court doesn't care now.

After the imperial court declared the sect legal, those former "cults" sprang up. In the past, they aimed to overthrow the imperial court, but after the imperial court declared them legal, they had no intention of overthrowing the imperial court - they were pouring out each other, even slaughtering.

For example, the Women's League Sect gave the head of the Business Sect to Ling Chi, so the Women's League Sect and the Business Sect are mortal enemies. Liberalism and egalitarianism have always been mortal enemies. The Grass Gang and the Hehai Sect look down on each other. The general gang is grabbing turf with themselves. Maitreya, which had only been founded for a few months, split again, and the Neo-Theology, Neo-Buddhism, and Neo-Taoism once again had their own headsβ€”of course, none of them recognized the leaders appointed by the imperial court.

In this regard, I think the court is quite smart. If the court forbade them all, they would put aside their disputes and unite against the court. If the court left them alone, they fought each other dividedly.

The brawls between these gangs and sects became more and more intense, and finally, even rifles and bombs were used, which finally alarmed the imperial court.

Yes, you read that right, rifles and bombs are now used in civilian warfare.

The Tang Dynasty was established at the beginning, so all laws are subject to the Ming Law. In the past, in Daming, you need the signature guarantee of the security chief, team leader, village head, township head, and county magistrate to buy a kitchen knife, and you have to report to the security chief with the kitchen knife every month.

And now, there are kitchen knife gangs everywhere, and even dagger gangs, sword gangs, and finally rifle gangs, bomb gangs have appeared. They smuggled rifles from Liaodong, Lingnan, Hebei - yes, you read that right, now there are three provinces in Datang that can make rifles.

Let's put it this way, in the second week after I taught Liaodong to make explosives, Hebei and Lingnan will be, maybe they have a lot of spies. I can assure you that in a few months, every province will be too. Explosives are not really difficult to make, as long as you have the recipe, it is easy to make them in large quantities. I wonder what the Holy Land will think if it finds out......

In short, at the court meeting, the court quarreled over this matter.

Everybody said, "How can this work?" If you have a murder weapon, what if you kill someone! You think, people have kitchen knives in their hands, and they must cut people! ”

Everyone also said, "All weapons must be confiscated!" In this way, the country and the people can be safe! ”

However, no one knows how to confiscate. The world has been in turmoil for nine years, how can it be so easy to settle down.

Zhang Qiangsheng said: "We must confiscate the land in Gyeonggi, then auction it, first establish an invincible forbidden army to dominate the world, and then establish the Ministry of Thought and the Ministry of Labor to control the world." ”

The emperor said unhappily: "Don't mention this to me in the future!" ”

Yang Mingyang: "The law prohibits the possession of controlled knives, so all their knives and pistols must be confiscated. ”

The emperor said to him, "Then you go and confiscate it!" ”

Yang Mingyang: "I can't accept it." Therefore, I suggest that it is better to change the law so that the people can carry weapons......"

Emperor: "How can this be done, what should I do if I kill someone?" ”

Yang Mingyang: "If the law is created and not enforced, it will damage the majesty of the law!" ”

The emperor was even more unhappy: "Gyeonggi is full of innocent human lives, and what does the majesty of the law matter!" ”

It was a little difficult to ban knives and guns, so the court put this matter down.

Now the imperial court is discussing the matter of tobacco, strictly speaking, it is a matter of tobacco, big ma, and a piece.

In the past, tobacco was forbidden in Daming, not to mention big and big pieces. The laws of the Tang Dynasty are based on the laws of the Ming Dynasty, so these are illegal, but now these things are everywhere, and they are blatantly sold in every tobacco house in Dachang'an - in fact, they are sold in "quit houses".

The imperial court can't confiscate all the knives and guns in the secret, but it can seal off all the "smoking cessation halls" on the street.

Yang Mingyang first said: "Now Chang'an is full of smokers. They don't work every day and smoke in smoke halls all day long. They don't have any money, so they steal, even rob, and kill. I suggest that all the smoke houses be sealed! ”

Someone said, "It's a 'smoking cessation hall.'" ”

Yang Mingyang said to him: "You don't chew words with words, they are all selling dog meat on the head of a sheep!" ”

Someone said, "They're going to smoke, not big smokers." ”

Yang Mingyang: "Do you want me to take you to search?" ”

Someone said, "Smoke is about the same as tobacco." ”

Yang Mingyang pointed at his nose: "I know you!" Your family grows big cigarettes! You bastard! ”

The man's face was extremely ugly, and he said, "The cigarette tax is very heavy, and we pay a lot of taxes. This is a good thing for the benefit of the country and the people. ”

Yang Mingyang said loudly: "! The court uses your little tax to clean up your mess, and it's not enough for interest! Yesterday, someone became addicted to cigarettes and went to the dart game to grab money and killed a lot of people. The imperial court sent officials to arrest people, and you paid for it! The ground is full of blood, you pay to wipe it! The person who was stabbed to death sued, you solve it! ”

The man said, "Isn't it just a money-grabbing person, what does it have to do with big smoke?" Where is there no money grabbing? ”

Yang Mingyang said: "What about those who are sick? What about those who go bankrupt and become beggars? This happens everywhere! If they don't pay taxes when they get sick and die, isn't that a loss for the imperial court? They would rather give the money to the smoke house than to the imperial court! You are competing with the country for profit! For your own selfish interests, you ignore the country and completely ignore the future of Datang! You're just damned! ”

The man was frightened and stared at Yang Mingyang with a frightened look.

Yang Mingyang said to the emperor: "Smoking is illegal, and selling cigarettes is also illegal. The imperial court should ban all cigarettes and close all the tobacco houses. ”

Zhao Yuyang asked: "What should I do if I have a smoking addiction?" ”

Yang Mingyang: "They are wrong, it is their own business that causes them to be wrong, and we don't care." ”

Zhao Yuyang: "You don't care!" ”

Zhang Qiangsheng on one side said: "The smoke house doesn't need to be closed at all. If they have a habit of smoking, we will raise taxes on tobacco houses. Anyway, they have a smoking addiction and have to smoke it; Anyway, the smoke house is there, and I can't run away. According to the practice of the Book of Rule, it is better for us to open our own smoke houses. But I don't have any money now, but I can buy a dry stock. We also need to develop more smokers and contribute to the country......"

Yang Mingyang said to Zhang Qiangsheng: "You have a bad idea! What do you think! ”

Zhang Qiangsheng: "A good opportunity to make money, what's wrong?" ”

Yang Mingyang: "You are an official of the imperial court, and you only have money in your eyes?" ”

Zhang Qiangsheng: "I don't want to make money, I want to rob money." Now the emperor is merciful and doesn't let me rob it, what can I do. ”

Yang Mingyang: "You will hurt them!" ”

Zhang Qiangsheng: "What do they have to do with us?" ”

Yang Mingyang: "We must try our best to do good things for the people!" ”

Zhang Qiangsheng: "Liquor is more likely to do bad things, and there is also alcohol addiction, why don't you care?" ”

Yang Mingyang opened his mouth, thought for a while, and said, "I don't have much addiction to alcohol. ”

Zhang Qiangsheng: "Who said that there is no big addiction to alcohol. Alcohol is more serious than tobacco, so why not ban it? How many people in Chang'an drank alcohol and died every day? How many people kill people by going crazy with alcohol? For every person who smokes to death, there are a hundred people who drink to death behind him. ”

Yang Mingyang: "There are too many people drinking. ”

Zhang Qiangsheng: "You mean that the imperial court should let everyone smoke a lot?" Is it legal to smoke a big cigarette like this? ”

Yang Mingyang opened his mouth and did not speak.

Hey, it's hard to talk about smoking and drinking. Almost everyone in the world drinks alcohol, but very few smoke – because tobacco is so expensive that only the upper class can smoke it. I have the impression that Park Qinghong also smokes, and even Dongfang Mingyue smokes.

Is smoking and drinking bad?

I've given the example of baldness before, how many hairs are considered baldness in a person? Someone has a hair and pulls it one by one. Sooner or later he will become bald, so how many hairs does he have, and when we can say that he is "bald"?

Take tobacco and alcohol, for example. There are many kinds of tobacco, from women's cigarettes, tobacco, black smoke, big smoke, to slices, which of them do you say is legal and which is illegal? There are many types of alcohol, from rice wine, wine, beer, sake, red wine, to liquor, which of them do you say is legal and which is illegal? Even after you have finished dividing, you can continue to analyze, for example, Da Ma is more serious than Da Ma, for example, which is more serious than a ton of tobacco and a gram of Da Ma?

The people of the court were arguing non-stop.

You can even see the meaning of "cult" in the imperial court - I mean, they even talk about it as a cult.

Someone said, "One is willing to fight, the other is willing to suffer." If people don't smoke, they can not buy it, and they are not forced. He spoke as if he were a "business teacher."

Someone said: "People in the upper class can smoke, why can't civilians smoke?" He spoke as if he were a "commoner."

Someone said, "Why should the imperial court care about personal affairs?" This is people's freedom. He spoke as if he were "free to teach."

Some people say, "Men can suck, why can't women?" "He spoke like a "women's league" - I don't know why he, a man, spoke for a woman.

Someone said, "Smoking a big cigarette and fluttering like a fairy is like seeing a god." "He must be a believer.

Someone said: "The central court will not care about this matter, and the provincial governments will do it according to the situation." He is probably a "feudal religion".

……

The emperor on the dragon chair was a little impatient and said, "You can do it." ”

The emperor slapped his ass and left, leaving behind the quarrelsome courtiers.

The end result is that everything remains the same: all alcohol is legal, tobacco is legal, but big and big tobacco are illegal. Of course, that's just on paper. In fact, the imperial court imposed heavy taxes on alcohol and tobacco, and even heavier taxes on big tobaccoβ€”which they called fines. The only difference from the previous one is that all the prices in the tavern smoke hall have increased several times.

The imperial court was happy to have money.

The Big Smoke Gang is legal, and I'm very happy.

Yang Mingyang punished the smokers and upheld the dignity of the law.

Everyone was happy.

It must be so.
