"Bang bang!"

The door of the big house in the city was slammed open, and a house slave cautiously asked, "What is the important matter of your lords?" ”

The official said: "The world is the same, everyone is equal. The town has an order that slaves must not be kept in possession. Let us in, and all the slaves will register. The deed of sale is null and void, and the house slaves are left for their own convenience. I am willing to leave the working house slaves, write down the years of employment, and write down the monthly salary! ”

"Poor master, our family has registered." The house slave said.

"Before, I took the initiative to report to the government, but today the government went to the house to inspect. Get out of the way! The official scolded.

Five or six officials entered the courtyard, and the owner of the house hurriedly came to greet them.

An old man took out the silver and said with a smile: "Poor master, the slaves and maids in the family have all been reported, and they have been exchanged for employment contracts." ”

"Get the contract out!"

"Wait a minute."

After a while, a few contracts with the servants have been sent in front of the leader.

The leading official said, "Write it down, the household paid bribes...... How much? ”

Another official with a scale said, "A bribe of eight pieces of silver." ”

"The household paid a bribe of eight yuan, a fine of ten times, and a fine of eight taels of silver. Take it out! The official urged.

"This, this, this......" the old man began to panic.

The official cursed, "Don't you have a brain? Within a month, the wharf had already killed one civilian official, two military attachés, seven two-class officials, and more than 40 people who were playing boards. You still dare to bribe, you want me to die, don't you? ”

"Don't dare, don't dare, old decay admits punishment." The old man hurriedly asked people to fetch the silver.

In private, there must still be officials who accept bribes, just like there must be people in the army who are corrupt and have not been found out.

But on the bright side, no one dares to be greedy anymore.

This thing can make meritorious service by reporting to each other, as long as you make meritorious service, you can be promoted quickly, anyway, there is a shortage of people everywhere now.

After the fine is registered, the deed and the servant are verified.

Several officials rushed into the inner courtyard and began to shout: "If there are no domestic slaves, if they are not registered and settled, they will be black homeless people in the future, and they will not care if they are beaten and killed." As long as you register and settle down, your children and grandchildren will be able to become officials. Listen, as long as you register and settle down, the children and grandchildren of domestic slaves can also become officials! Don't think about yourself, think about your children and grandchildren! ”

No one responded.

An official came to a remote courtyard, and the courtyard was full of firewood.

"Bang! Bang! Bang! ”

Just as the official was about to leave, a small hut stacked with miscellaneous items suddenly heard a noise.

The official went to open the door, but the door was locked.

"Phew! Sigh! Sigh! ”

The official immediately blew the bamboo whistle, and the other officials quickly came.

"What's going on?"

"The door is locked, and there's movement inside."

The official turned around and saw that the owner of the house was all frightened.

"Pry open!"

The door was quickly pried open, revealing more than a dozen house slaves inside. All fours were tied up, and the mouth was gagged.

The officials were startled, tore open the rag from the mouth of a house slave, and asked, "Why are you being imprisoned?" ”

The slave replied, "A few days ago, the old man killed a slave and maid. We were all house slaves in the inner courtyard of the master, and when he heard that the official messenger was coming, the master tied us up and hid us. ”

"Good! Grab it and take it back to the county office, don't even think about running away. ”

The officials were surprised and delighted, this is a big case, they have all made meritorious contributions, maybe they can be sent to western Guangdong as officials.

There are a lot of pickled things in big households, and they wanted to investigate the house slaves, but they found out a bunch of cases, and the Nanhai County and Panyu County were busy in the dark.

These officials escorted the criminals back to the county office, but on the way, they saw gongs and drums beating.

A slave sits on a sedan chair, with gongs and drums in front of him, and suona accompaniment.

"Boom!"

Someone rang the gong and shouted at the top of his throat: "Congratulations to the shopkeeper Lin, congratulations to the shopkeeper of Xilin, once he will be free, he will never be a slave." Long live Zhao Tianwang! ”

"Bang bang bang!"

Another entourage lit firecrackers and crackled all the way, and the scene was like welcoming relatives.

"Throw money!"

This rich slave, who was called the shopkeeper of Lin, sat comfortably on the sedan chair and ordered his entourage to throw money on the street.

Many passers-by flocked to the place, lying on the ground to pick up money.

An idler couldn't squeeze in, so he shouted: "Congratulations to the shopkeeper Lin, the children and grandchildren will be rich and rich, and the children and grandchildren will be big officials!" ”

"Reward! Reward that man! ”

Shopkeeper Lin hurriedly shouted, and his entourage grabbed a handful of copper coins and ran over and stuffed them into the idler's arms.

"Shopkeeper Lin has many sons and many blessings, and Shopkeeper Lin has been a prince for generations!"

Suddenly, more people shouted.

Shopkeeper Lin laughed: "Scatter money, scatter money!" ”

Shopkeeper Lin's team crossed the street and bumped into another team of Haonu.

"Congratulations, congratulations!"

"Rejoice, rejoice!"

The two slaves sat on the sedan chair and gave up their hands in the air.

The second slave is more interesting, not only throwing money along the way, but also holding the "Datong Collection" and reciting the article aloud: "The respect of the saint, in his virtue, is called personality." The dignity of the Son of Heaven is in his position of power, which is called the human position...... The good and the humble are in their place; The good and the low are equal, in their qualifications. Fellow villagers, Mr. Zhao's article is well written. Now, not only is the good and the poor equal, but Mr. Zhao also wants to abolish the difference between the good and the low. The world is the same, long live Mr. Zhao! The world is the same, Mr. Zhao! ”

These slaves are simply crazy.

Compared with ordinary domestic slaves, Hao slaves not only gained freedom, but also secured their property.

For them, Zhao Han is simply a reborn parent.

On another street, I saw a few turtle boys and more than 20 prostitutes, tying up the bustard and the brothel thugs.

A turtle man shouted: "Report to the official, report to the official." Master Chen's brothel does not allow lowly households to be good, and openly disobeys Mr. Zhao's order. The neighbors are listening, I, Yuan Da, will not be a slut in the future, I will go to Mr. Zhao to join the army! Brothers and sisters, all shout: The world is the same! ”

"The world is the same!" The turtle and the prostitute shouted in unison.

"Good and low are equal!"

"Good and low are equal!"

As soon as they turned the corner, they ran into another group of people.

These people were all domestic slaves, and they tied up their masters and went to the county government to report to the officials, because the masters did not want to return the deeds.

Hearing the shouts of the turtle and the prostitute, these house slaves also shouted: "The world is the same!" Good and low equal! ”

In a restaurant on the street, several scholars looked out the window, all of them showing shocked expressions.

"The world is declining, and morality is declining! The world is declining, and morality is declining! ”

"This surnamed Zhao, what does he want to do?"

“……”

Many good deeds follow these teams.

For example, craftsmen and the like were also liberated, and finally they no longer had to serve the government.

Nanhai County Ya.

The county magistrate Tu Tingying is physically and mentally exhausted, and the county government prison is already overcrowded, and he is now trying cases in a row.

"Next!"

said that it was the next one, and more than a dozen were brought in in an instant, all of whom were bound by domestic slaves to report to the official.

Zheng Sen walked slowly through the streets and alleys, silently watching all this, and his heart had already set off a storm.

His biological mother was Tagawa Matsu, the daughter of the owner of Hirado Island, and Zheng Sen lived in Japan until he was seven years old. Before he learned to walk, his mother let him practice kendo, and he was instilled with the fledgling spirit of bushido.

After arriving in Fujian, he was taught by a famous teacher and Confucian, and read the Four Books and Five Classics for seven years, learning loyalty, patriotism, benevolence, righteousness, etiquette and faith.

It was not until the last half month that Zheng Sen began to come into contact with Datong Thought.

The booklet "Datong Collection" is very thin, and Zheng Sen finished reading it in one day. After carefully tasting and thinking about it, it took several more days, and although it had a great impact on him, it was still only in terms of thoughts.

Now that he has witnessed many strange appearances in Guangzhou, and then recalled the content of "Datong Collection", Zheng Sen finally has more understanding.

Who's right?

In terms of the scriptures and righteousness alone, Zhao Han did nothing wrong, and all policies were in line with the words of the sages.

If "Datong Ji" is correct, should the slaves of his own family be released? Should they be given their free bodies?

Fourteen or fifteen-year-old boys, easily influenced by advanced theories, Zheng Sen has begun to gravitate towards the booklet "Datong Collection".

……

Foshan.

Xie Shijun, a wealthy businessman, began to regret that he should not have handed over the firearms at home.

At this moment, a group of officials carrying water and fire sticks dared to go to the Xie family to show off their might. The rich merchants of the whole town are like this, honestly giving their house slaves a name, and there is no room for resistance.

Suddenly, another group of officials came, dressed in black and blue-trimmed clothes.

The official who was running errands trembled when he saw the person coming. Although they don't know people, they know the clothes - the Department of Integrity and Integrity!

"You hold off." The official of the Department of Integrity commanded.

"Yes." Ordinary officials hurriedly responded.

The official of the Department of Integrity took out an official document: "Foshan Xie Shijun, Xie Yunwen father and son, bribed Datong officers with 500 taels. With this bad deed, he did not repent of his death, and paid a bribe of 300 taels to Nanhai County. Nanhai County Cheng has been imprisoned, confessed, and there are all human and material evidence. Xie Shijun, Xie Yunwen and his son, were immediately arrested and imprisoned, and the trial and verdict will be announced on a later day! ”

Xie Shijun was dragged out and shouted in horror: "I didn't pay a bribe, I didn't pay a bribe!" ”

The official of the Department of Integrity continued: "Xie Chong, a domestic slave, was instructed by Xie's father and son to offer bribes, and was arrested and imprisoned together. ”

Xie Shijun hurriedly said: "It was the house slave who betrayed the master, and the old man didn't know it!" ”

"If you don't know it, let's talk about it when you go to the yamen of the Department of Integrity." The official of the Department of Integrity sneered.

Seeing that the Department of Integrity had taken the three people away, the ordinary officials trembled with fear.

The officials here in Guangzhou now call the Department of Integrity "Black Guard", which is equivalent to the "Jinyi Guard" of the Ming Dynasty. These guys seem to be everywhere, arresting corrupt officials everywhere, and now they have taken away the head of the Xie family.

Many wealthy businessmen in Foshan are hiding at home and dare not go out.

Their original plan was to cooperate with Zhao Han in everything, and when Zhao Han left Guangzhou, they would stun the officials with silver.

But now the Department of Integrity has suddenly emerged, and the Yamen of the Department of Integrity in Guangzhou has been formally established. In recent days, a group of domestic slaves have been recruited as spies, which has put the rich businessmen in danger, and they always feel that the slaves at home are all the eyes of the incorruptible government.

In the event of a bribe, a fine of at least ten times is imposed.

If the bribe exceeds 100 taels, the embezzler and the bribe-giver are all sentenced to death, and several have been publicly killed these days.

The merchants were all frightened, they had never seen anything like this, and they even regretted taking the city and surrendering it a little.

Until this time, Zhao Han had not made it clear what the charter was for doing business in the future.

To govern a group of businessmen, do you still need to fight wits and courage?

Confiscate their firearms first, then let them release the house slaves, and then do the rest. annoyed Zhao Han, I don't mind killing a few more, and let the integrity department stare at it in the future.

By the way, the businessmen in Guangzhou are too corrosive, and in the future, they will regularly send people from Jiangxi to secretly investigate the integrity department in Guangzhou, so as to prevent the businessmen from corrupting the integrity department.
