Chapter 6 Adaptations
The hundred-man team under Huang Yao's command began to move in earnest, and in front of the ******** machine, the crowd gathered from several major clans in Jixi was like a chicken and a dog... Except for a few corpses that dared to take the lead and came over to entangle, becoming a monkey's chicken... The rest of the people who did not know the truth were all dispersed and guarded by the clan's past accumulation, and the heads and heads of the four major families who instigated to participate in today's affairs were all captured under the guise of rebellion, and the captain of the 100 people who had led the team to arrest Shiji, the head of the Shi family, was also temporarily suspended because he was too weak in dealing with the clan's obstruction of law enforcement.

A chaos was put to rest for the Yellow Scythe, but the effects of this incident had only just begun.
Entering the city, the merchant's convoy stopped at the largest liquor store in the city.
After the evening eclipse, time passed unconsciously, and half a moon had gone to mid-heaven.
Shang Liang had already fallen asleep, but he couldn't sleep no matter what, and his heart was full of things that he had never seen elsewhere today.
After tossing and turning, he finally couldn't help but sit up.
"Shang Liang. The voice of the old father came from the side collapse, there was a clarity in the voice, and there was a faint trace of excitement, how could there be a trace of sleepiness, thinking of the sound of the thin ropes in the room before, and the father was also tossing and turning.
Shang Liang sighed lightly and found the flint next to the collapse, and successively wiped out the firelight to illuminate the room, and then lit the candle.
"Father, I can't sleep tonight. ”
Father Shang then sat up and nodded: "I'm thinking about everything I saw in Jidi today, I just watched the novelty and shock during the day, but all kinds of things are just fragments after all, but just now Father suddenly figured it all out." ”
"It's good now, I just can't sleep, but now I'm even more excited. ”
"Alas, tonight seems destined to be a sleepless night. ”
"What did Father figure out?"
Father Shang smiled, did not answer directly, and asked, "What do you think of the previous city gate?"
Shang Liang thought for a moment and said eloquently: "In the world, local doctors have always been replaced by the old and the new, and the most taboo is to take root in the local influential clans to influence the governance of the territory, so whenever the new lord is in the position, he will fully suppress those who dare to take the lead, otherwise once he is weak, he will be jointly hijacked by the local clans." ”
"At this time, if the new lord is strong, as a local clan, he should try his best to shrink so as not to become a blow to it. ”
"Today, the Yu Gongzi of the Jidi Snake is ruling Ji with the power of Cai Zhiwei, and the local clans in Jixi don't know how to shrink and dare to obstruct the governance..."Shang Liang shook his head and said, "Father, this is really a self-defeating way." ”
"In the opinion of business, the clans involved in today's affairs will disappear because of this. ”
Father Shang laughed and said, "This is reasonable, but have I ever thought that these local clans are not stupid, and they are not unreasonable, so why do they still jump out to make today's noise?"
"And if you don't make trouble sooner or later, it must be today?"
Shang Liang sighed slightly: "The head of the Jixi Shi family, Shi Ji, wants the clansmen to hand over part of the income as public property, which is a common thing in the major clans in the world, but his clan is a member of the Snake Yu Country, and the property he has rightfully obtained is protected by the national law, and he has violated the patriarchal law by not paying it. ”
"In order to prevent all the clansmen from taking it as an example, the head of the Shi family used thunder to deter and implement patriarchal disposition and killing. ”
"It's just that there are provisions in the national law of the Snake Yu country, and the lives of the people of the snake Yu country are protected by the national law if they have not violated the national law of the snake country, and the head of the Shi family wants to ask for property is an illegal encroachment on the property of the clansmen.
Speaking of this, Shang Liang suddenly said: "Today's incident is not a simple obstruction of law enforcement by the clan, but a dispute between the clan patriarchal law and the national law." ”
Father Shang said: "Yes, the essence of today's affairs is the dispute between the patriarchal law and the national law, otherwise it would not be so big." ”
"The law of the land is different from the old rites and the laws of other places that evolved from the rites of the past, and the law not only protects the rule of the monarch and the doctor, but also makes everyone under the rule of the country from ghosts to people, and all the people of the country are protected by the law. ”
"But all the privileges and interests of the clan head are based on the majority of the clansmen. ”
If the law of the clan is really implemented, even if the clan will not disappear due to blood ties, it will be difficult to form a state within a country and a leader in the territory of the land, and the vested interests of the clan head will no longer exist. ”
"How can the heads of the clans of all sizes be willing to be deprived of their vested interests?" Father Shang suddenly said sharply: "Therefore, they don't think about any problems with the patriarchal law, they only think that the national law of the snake remnant country is too lenient." ”
Shang Liang smiled, he had never thought of this before, and continued: "The law of the Snake Yu Kingdom is completely implemented, they will lose everything, if they join forces to make a big deal and let the Snake Yu Gongzi see the power of the clan, will the Snake Yu Gongzi make a little concession and compromise?"
"They're more likely to want to... Even if they don't, they don't actually rebel, they just obstruct... Moreover, the so-called law does not blame the people, and the scribes and samurai in their clan must also participate in the governance of the land, and the princess of the snake should not do anything to them. ”
When I think about it, we have what we are today. ”
Father Shang shook his head: "They underestimated the determination of the Snake Yu Gongzi to implement the new order, and it is ridiculous to guess the heart of the founder of the new order with the thoughts of the old order and overestimate his position, the Snake Yu Gongzi should have been eyeing these clan forces for a long time and waiting for them to jump out." ”
After all, under the new law, most of the people in the Snake Remnant Kingdom are beneficiaries, but those who have vested interests under the old order have lost their interests, but they have clan ties and local influence, which will definitely hinder the implementation of the new law. ”
Shang Liang said: "But in this way, the new order of the Snake Yu Kingdom will no longer have the soil for the existence of clans, which is also unfavorable to everyone like my Shang clan?"
Shang's father denied: "Otherwise, as the ancestor said, if you are poor, you will change, and if you change, you will be able to do it for a long time." ”
"The reason why other clans are clans... It was able to condense into a momentum by protecting the clan to a certain extent under the old order, but depriving more of the ghost control patriarchal law, and its law was contrary to the law of the snake remnant... In the country of the snake remnant, it is the end of the road. ”
"At this time, we should seek changes that correspond to the new order. ”
"We are the most flexible people in the world, but we are the most flexible people in the world. ”
"I'm going to test you, how can you be flexible if you want to continue to maintain a large family system in Jidi?"
Shang Liang thought for a moment: "The reason why the clan is a clan, in addition to the so-called patriarchal law, still has blood ties as a bond, this will not change no matter what, what we have to consider in this trip is to maintain the cohesion of the family without violating the new order of the Snake Yu Kingdom, so that other members of the family can be reunited around the family for the use of the family, in Shang Liang's opinion... Or can benefit for cohesion. ”
"If there are more people, the power is greater, and the wealth gathering is strong, and the family group has a larger capital to do greater business and get more benefits, while the family people do it alone with small profits and are easy to be oppressed by other groups or big people. ”
"In such a situation, the clan members are naturally willing to gather for the use of the family, and we only need to be careful not to treat the family members as ghosts, and to protect their lives and property without infringing on them, so as not to deviate from the national law of the snake remnant country. ”
"A good blood relationship is a link, and interests are cohesive. Listening to Shang Liang's words, Shang's father high-fived and sighed.
Shang Liang thought for a moment and said, "So my father has decided to move the Shang clan to the country of Snake Yu and become a native of the country of Snake Remnant?"
Father Shang said: "If you can be a human being, why do you continue to be a ghost? Although the government of land is only seen in recent days, it is much stronger than any country in the world. ”
"In fact, recently, the Wei family, which has a dominant position in Chen Guo, invited the Legalist school to change the law for it, and the law is extremely beneficial to our business, and Chen Guo is the first hegemon in the world, but Wei's has been dishonest in front of our merchants many years ago, and when I don't hear the law of the snake country, my Shang family may be the most suitable to move to the Chen country, and now there is a snake country Chen Guo is not the best choice. ”
After a pause, Father Shang took a deep breath: "At this time, there is still some time before the Snake Yu Kingdom Investment Conference, and we can take a closer look." (To be continued.) )
