"Zhu Lin, why do you think there are so many homeless people?" asked Li Zhi. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
"Natural and man-made disasters," Zhu Lin replied
"Yes, natural disasters make up a small part. The biggest part is man-made accidents. The main thing is land annexation. Li Zhi said.
"Teacher, this apprentice knows, just like this fat man in Sicheng. Thousands of acres of land south of Sicheng belong to him. Including now, this land was bought from the fat outside. (The fat man protested there strongly.) Zhu Lin, why are you buying? Is it blackmail? "It is said that because the fat man is exempt from taxes, many farmers hang their land in the fat man's house. Fat employees also charge a certain amount of rent. ”
"Well, that's the point I'm going to tell you today. The land is all in one place. Because many peasants would leave their land in the hands of some scholars. Do you know why the imperial court gave tax exemption to the fat man? This is because of the imperial court's system. There are people in the family who are officials in the court, and there are scholars who are scholars. The imperial court will be exempt from taxes. Let's not talk about this for now. In the north, due to the problem of displaced people and slave people. This environment has been broken. But natural disasters and wars have caused so many displaced people. The North was broken. But the South is more serious than the North. The annexation of land has reached appalling proportions. My friend, that man, ended up like this because he touched the owner of those lands. Let's put it this way, if Zhu Lin, will you sell your steam engine after it is built? ”
"Not for the time being, maybe later. Zhu Lin replied honestly.
"Have you ever thought about what you can do if you sell the steam engine? Just like Yang Jianchao, after transforming the steam engine, sell it to the weaving village. The effect is very good, a machine is made by many people. But have you thought about it, the people live on food. The land is all gone to grow cotton, who will grow food. And one machine will cut off the life of many people. Will those people agree with peace of mind? If the people are unstable, those people will be anxious. Scapegoats are definitely to be found. And my best friend is the best scapegoat. ”
"The steam engine drives the loom, and the productivity must be greatly improved. Why don't the owners of those weaving farms buy it? What a fool!"
Zhu Lin asked curiously.
"Those people are not stupid, they are smart. Productivity has increased, but it has also blocked the financial path of many people. to hinder their wealth, as to kill their parents. That is the enmity of the heavens. Definitely won't do it. A large number of landless displaced people and a large number of workers who have lost their jobs, how can they live? Can there be a way to survive without rebellion? The imperial court was defeated in successive battles in the north, and my friend was so disappointed that he lost confidence. Jiangnan is no longer stable. Do you think the court is not in a hurry? Plus my friend is usually too upright. Offended a lot of people, so. will be framed. What the teacher said is something you can understand or not. So these tricks can be done, but they can't be pushed out right now. Unless you have the strength to force it. Li Zhi looked at Zhu Lin and said lightly.
"Well, kind of understood. Zhu Lin actually knows it. Every time something new is introduced, it is blocked by some conservatives. It requires a long-term process of accumulation and promotion. If it is pushed out all at once, it will be strongly resisted by those conservative forces. After all, there are not many people with long-term vision, and they are all short-sighted people. Otherwise, it would not have allowed the slave clan outside the gate to rise.
"Teacher, you just said that Yang Jianchao is with you, can you let him come over to help me. Zhu Lin asked in a low voice.
"I thought about it for the teacher, but the man was already crazy. I looked for a famous doctor for my teacher, but I was not cured. It's not much use to come, and the teacher has already instructed those subordinates to take good care of Yang Jianchao. ”
Zhu Lin's heart was half cold when he heard this. It's hard to find. But he was a madman. Oh, how unjust the heavens have treated me.
"Zhu Lin, tell me about the problems of your industry. Give you ideas for the teacher. Li Zhi said.
Zhu Lin carefully told Li Zhi about the problems encountered in his industry, it has been four days, and the two of them are still talking about sex there. When Zhu Lin laid out all the problems he encountered to Li Zhi. Li Zhi gave a reply in general. The two of them spent the night there. There have been quarrels, there have been peaces. There have been smiles and tears. This night is not recorded in the history books of the afterlife. No one knew what Li Zhi said to Zhu Lin. But since this night, Zhu Lin seems to have changed as a person.
Early the next morning, the rain was still falling, Zhu Lin didn't sleep all night, and in the morning under the coercion of Lao Li, he honestly went to self-cultivation and began the days of hard work. I can't be an otaku anymore. Although Zhu Lin was a little unaccustomed to practicing at the beginning, he was sore and sore. Still gritted his teeth and survived. If you don't survive, there's no way! Li Zhi rode behind and watched. Zhu Lin asked Li Zhi last night, what is the cross-country ten miles, what military boxing. Li Zhi told Zhu Lin: "My friend discussed it with him before he went crazy." ”
After training, Zhu Lin went to the cafeteria to eat. The cafeteria is still very lively every morning. The children who have just been selected from the homeless population are not as disciplined as the first-class children. You know, the food in this cafeteria is much better than the outside. The steamed bread is definitely a white-flour steamed bun, and the porridge is also a thick porridge that is inserted into the chopsticks without falling. The dishes are all pimple pickles. Each child will have an egg to give the child a nutritious supplement. Li Zhi is still very satisfied with this. In Zhu Lin's words, there is no condition now, there is a condition, and everyone has to add another glass of milk in the morning. "No matter how hard you are, you can't be bitter about your children, and no matter how poor you are, you can't be poor in education," Zhu Lin said to Li Zhi domineeringly. After hearing this, Li Zhi still did not object. Although the children are all taught by ordinary people.
A couple of older kids were making a lot of noise. The stewards have not yet come. Wang Guangxu couldn't be busy there alone. Whoop that, scare that. But there are a few older children who don't buy Wang Guangxu's account at all. Only the first junior and the others sat there eating. Eating is almost always an action. Li Zhi stood at the door and saw it and asked Zhu Lin how he did it. Zhu Lin smiled and didn't answer. After Li Zhi inspected it yesterday, he was full of praise for these children in the first year of junior high school. "These kids are absolutely useful," he said. ”
The slightly older children were trembling all over after seeing Zhu Lin and Li Zhi coming over. Zhu Lin came to them and said, "Don't you know that loud noises are forbidden in the cafeteria? After eating, I went to read a book. An inch of time is an inch of gold. What to shout about here. Look at what your brothers did. ”
The children scattered. The scholar ate quietly there in his first year.
Zhu Lin took the food from Wang Guangxu's hand and ate it with Li Zhi's. Zhu Lin quickly finished eating while standing. Ask Wang Guangxu what is going on there. Wang Guangxu told Zhu Lin that they were the first batch of children selected, sent by Shen Mo. It's just that this group of children is usually scattered and a little disobedient. Zhu Lin looked at Wang Guangxu and then at Li Zhi. He asked, "What about the old masters?"
"Young master, those old masters were taken out by Zhu Chengli very early. I don't know what to do. ”
Zhu Lin suddenly remembered that Yang Wangnan said yesterday that he was coming to withdraw money. Maybe Lao Zhu went to get money to buy materials. "You finish eating first, and then take the children to class as soon as you finish eating. I'm waiting for them here. Wang Guangxu agreed, and went to work.
At this time, Li Zhi also finished eating. Li Zhi wiped his mouth and said, "You take the book here first." We'll be sure when they get back. ”
Zhu Lin took a copy of the Book of Songs and read it. The books that Zhu Lin read and Wang Guangxu have annotated them in simplified Chinese. It's good to know these traditional characters. Li Zhi saw it and said: "This character is easy to recognize, but it seems to be missing something compared to traditional Chinese characters." What is missing, Li Zhi did not say. Zhu Lin didn't care so much. As long as you can memorize it. Let's talk about that later.
Zhu Lin watched and talked with Li Zhi about the general trend of the world all night yesterday. I couldn't stand it so sleepily that I fell asleep on the table with a huff.
Li Zhi looked at Zhu Lin lying on the table and shook his head. Smiled kindly. There fiddling with the transcript of yesterday's conversation. There are some things, Zhu Lin is still young, and he doesn't know how to deal with these things. As Zhu Lin's master, he also passed on his own knowledge. also for the sake of the world. Li Zhiqiang held his sleepiness and tidied up there. It's not that Li Zhi wants to seize Zhu Lin's industry. There are some things that you should teach yourself to deal with. Because Li Zhi's own body knows by himself, there is not much time left to help Zhu Lin. "Apprentice, you are the last disciple of the teacher. Time is running out for teaching. Help you get on the horse and take a ride. It's up to you later. Li Zhi tidied up and said silently.
The rain outside was getting heavier and heavier, and Zhu Chengli rode his horse and ran to the small square, flying off his horse. Not even a horse. ran to Xiaolou in a panic, and shouted loudly as he ran: "Young master, Wang Guangxu, take me to see the young master." ”
Li Zhi stood up and walked to the door and shouted to Zhu Chengli: "Steward Zhu, the young master is in the cafeteria." ”
Zhu Chengli didn't care about anything else, and rushed to the cafeteria and said loudly: "Young master, it's not good. A few guys in the bookkeeper all ran away. Swept all the money away. I caught a guy with the surname Ji and it's still there. ”
Zhu Lin was originally confused by the noise, but when he heard Zhu Chengli say this, a clever person jumped up. "Run, how could they let them run. To chase, as many horses as there are to chase. Be sure to chase it back. Zhu Lin jumped to his feet and shouted.
Li Zhi saw that Zhu Lin was so excited, coughed and said, "Zhu Lin, self-cultivation." Tarzan collapsed in front of him without changing color. ”
"Oh, Master, how can you take care of them so much! Originally, these people were going to deal with them for the next two days, but who knows if the fuck ran away. Uncle Zhu, how much money will you take away?"
"Even the surplus and the young master brought it before, about 10,000 taels! Fortunately, the young master asked Steward Yang to come to the old man today, otherwise, the old man wouldn't know that they had run away. Don't worry, young master, someone has already been arranged to chase after you. Including Lao Shen, he also let some strong laborers chase after him. With so many silver taels with them, they shouldn't be able to go fast. Zhu Chengli said
