Chapter 142: Treatment

The boat sailed, and the farther and farther it went, the faster and faster it went.

After a while, Wang Cunye asked: "I saw that you were dressed in a Tsing Yi Confucian shirt, and you were obviously famous, why did you go to Fusang? Fusang's style is very different from that of Shenzhou, and it is not as rich and spacious as Shenzhou, and it is still a place of ignorance.

Xing Siyuan's face turned red when he heard this, and he pulled the slightly old Tsing Yi Confucian shirt on his body: "Although Fusang is ignorant, he has admired Shenzhou for a long time, and often invites Confucian masters to give lectures, and it is the Qingtian family that invites me, it is said that there are 20,000 stone territory, but I also want to give it a try." ”

In fact, although he is a talent, but in the world of Taoism, tax exemptions and official careers are gradually drying up, rather than suffering in the countryside, it is better to go to Fusang in exchange for a guest status.

Wang Cunye heard that this world Fusang was very similar to the Han and Tang dynasties, and he admired the literati of Shenzhou abnormally, and did not hesitate to come to Shenzhou all the way, just to learn the etiquette and education of Shenzhou.

It is because once the literati of Shenzhou go to Fusang, they will be treated as guests, and all kinds of courtesy and hospitality are far better than being an outdated show in Shenzhou, and it is not uncommon for Xing Siyuan to have this idea in front of him.

At this moment, there was a stirring on the boat, and an old man from Fusang came out, followed by two samurai with swords, commanding along the road, speaking Chinese, the words were clear, but not worse than the locals, and even more orthodox than ordinary people, learning authentic official language.

In this world, the Emperor of Heaven sits in the heavens, sweeping all worlds, and there are Taoist monarchs, although the court is now declining, and the princes are divided, but in the eyes of the countries, it is still strong and prosperous, and it is the source of culture.

The old man in front of him spoke official words, with a hint of smugness on his face, as if he was proud.

"Mr. Xing, please come over for dinner. The old man of Fusang spoke in Chinese, and his words were correct and round, and he said to Xing Siyuan beside Wang Cunye.

When Xing Siyuan heard this, he bowed his hand to Wang Cunye: "Lord Qingtian invited me to dinner, so don't leave it at that." ”

Wang Cunye nodded and arched his hand: "Don't send it." ”

However, it was said that this old man of Fusang saw Wang Cunye, who was standing in a Taoist robe, his face flashed with surprise, and he walked over: "This Taoist chief is elegant, and he is the old Qingtian Changsheng of the Qingtian family, can you join me in this banquet?" ”

The Qingtian family is said to have 20,000 stone territory, in fact, at that time, one acre produced one stone, which was 20,000 mu, 200 hectares.

According to Wang Cunye, Fusang only has its own language, but does not have its own script, and with the development of history, grass writing was gradually born.

Originally, the grass script had the possible surname of forming its own text, but later the supernatural power appeared in the world, on the surface, it seemed that the imperial court was declining, but because of the Taoism and the gods, the civilization radiation was more than ten times stronger, Fusang was to speak official language, writing Chinese is precious, three hundred years, Chinese Chinese has been widely adopted by the upper class of Fusang, official documents, poems, records are used in these, and the grass gradually declined.

I thought that this information was a bit exaggerated, but when I saw this situation today, I was afraid that it was true, so I immediately replied: "Now I will go back to the room to put some items, it is inconvenient to go immediately!"

This Qingtian Changsheng didn't care, and said: "In half an hour, I will send someone to invite." ”

Wang Cunye nodded and smiled, and responded: "Then thank you for your hospitality." ”

He repented at the moment, returned to the cabin, opened the door with the key, and went in, the cabin was small, and it was very wide and clean on board, and it was damp inside, but this was unavoidable on the sea, and it was very good to have it, and it did not discredit the title of the private room.

Spread out the bed and place the box under the bed.

After a while, a young warrior came over to invite, and this eager attitude made Wang Cunye secretly smile in his heart, and he immediately followed.

But it was a larger cabin, with a banquet and three samurai accompanying him, but he was submissive and did not talk directly to Wang Cunye.

When he took his seat, Xing Siyuan was a little uncomfortable, he was the protagonist who originally took the wind, but now he has become Wang Cunye, although in this half an hour, the level of the renovated banquet has doubled, Xing Siyuan would rather not need this grade.

Wang Cunye looked around, then sat down, exchanged a few words at will, drank two sips of sake, and the atmosphere became warm, and the samurai attending the banquet were all looking at Wang Cunye, Qingtian Changsheng, and Xing Siyuan, but they didn't interject, just poured wine from time to time.

When Qingtian Changsheng knew that Wang Cunye was a Taoist official of the eighth grade, he was immediately shocked, and hurriedly came over to serve sake in person, saying: "It turned out that he was still a Taoist official, and the adults went thousands of miles to Fusang, but it was hard work on the road. ”

After three rounds of wine, it is said that this banquet is a combination of Fusang and Middle Earth craftsmanship, it is indeed good, the umami is strong, Wang Cunye talked, Qingtian Changsheng knew the situation, and asked: "Lord Wang, where are you going to land on this trip?"

Wang Cunye said: "There is no purpose, I am still young, just hanging a sword to study." ”

It is said that Wang Cunye is only seventeen years old this year, Qingtian Changsheng looked at it, immediately believed it, and said: "After this ship goes to sea, it will stop at Shanwei Bay, which is the territory of my Qingtian family, and I also ask the adults to go ashore to Shanwei Town, so that my Qingtian family can be entertained." ”

"Thank you for your hospitality. Wang Cunye did not shirk, when he went to Fusang, he still needed a land snake, and the Qingtian family met it, and it was also fate.

At the moment, the guests and hosts were happy, and the banquet was over, and it was three o'clock in the afternoon.

Qingtian Changsheng set up a tea party again, at this time the boat had been out of a hundred miles, the river was flowing eastward, the tea house was wide and spacious, but there were only two people, Xing Siyuan was not there.

"I heard that the exchange ratio of gold and silver in Fusang is only four to one?" Wang Cunye asked according to the record, "Why don't you exchange it in Middle-earth?"

"Lord Wang, this is indeed a fact!" Qingtian Changsheng smiled: "But if the gold is to be transported to Middle-earth to be exchanged, the risk is very great, in this case, in fact, the exchange ratio is eight to one, and only twenty percent of the profit is not much." ”

"The wind is strong and the waves are big!" Wang Cunye thought thoughtfully.

The hull of the ship followed the waves of the river, Qingtian Changsheng sighed and said: "Not only that, there are also pirates and water demons, this sea route is not easy to walk!"

Say something again, it turns out that the sea trade is indeed a huge profit, but the wind and waves, pirates, and water demons are the three major obstacles, and the navigation has become a fight for life, and once it fails, even the ship will bring the goods and the whole ship to be buried together, not to mention ordinary people, even the wealthy and the daimyo can't stand it a few times.

But even so, the sea ships were willing to carry less cargo, and they also had to invite the Middle Earth scholars to go to Fuso.

Wang Cunye said quietly: "This sincerity is thirsty for talent, and I don't know if there is a charter." ”

"Of course there are, but there are five grades. ”

Wang Cunye smiled: "I want to hear it!"

Qingtian Changsheng pondered for a long time and said: "There is a skill that can benefit the family, this is the five products." ”

Fusang also seems to be looking at people to give food, Wang Cunye smiled: "I don't know how the treatment is?"

"If it's your own country, it's enough, and if it's a nobleman from Middle-earth, you can be courteous. Qingtian Changsheng said: "For example, Xing Jun, although he doesn't know practice, he can also teach Confucianism, so he is courteous and called Mr." ”

"What about it?"

"If Xing Jun can not only teach Confucianism, but also have a relatively accurate judgment on the general outline, or understand political affairs, and can effectively handle official affairs, this is the four products, which can be awarded knowledge and action, and can lead the office. ”

Zhixing is a hereditary territory, Wang Cunye nodded and smiled when he heard this: "What about going up again?"

"Not only can we have an accurate judgment of the situation, but we can also analyze the trend and give important measures, or we can coax the people and cultivate the goods, which are the three products. ”

Wang Cunye felt justified when he heard it at first, but now he was a little smiling, and thought to himself: "Wishful thinking!"

But he laughed: "What about it?"

"Those who can plan a big strategy and make contributions to the world are second-class. ”

Hearing this, Wang Cunye smiled: "Is Yipin an immortal, a hero like Wuhou and Wenhou who have not met in a hundred years?"

Said and sighed: "This method is too empty, a hero, in my Middle Earth is the world's luck, a hundred years of encounter, how can you go to Fusang, and are willing to bend the knee to serve as the lord of a county and a township?"

A country in Fusang is equal to a county in Middle Earth, and a county is equal to a township, and a daimyo often does not necessarily have a country, so it is said that it is the lord of a county and a township.

"The second grade can plan a big strategy, and those who have made contributions to the world are all official residences in Middle Earth and above the third grade, holding great power, and ranking as the minister, how can they go to your Fusang?"

"The three products can soothe the people and colonize the goods, although the Middle Earth is mutated, it can also be the official of one county and one county, how can it go to your Fusang?"

Qingtian Changsheng couldn't help blushing when he heard this, and he was a little discouraged when he wanted to say something, but after thinking about it for a while, he said, "But it's different." ”

"Oh, what's the difference?"

"Middle Earth is prosperous and prosperous, and Fusang can't be compared, but there are officials in Middle Earth without titles, or there are lords without substance, even if they are prime ministers, can they have 100,000 stones?" Qingtian Changsheng pondered deeply and spoke.

Wang Cunye was stunned, 100,000 stones is 100,000 mu, and 100,000 mu of private land is impossible, even if the Taoist law is not the prime minister of the prosperous dynasty, it is only 120,000 mu.

"Even if there are 100,000 stones in Middle Earth, can it be hereditary?" Qingtian Changsheng said this, his eyes lit up, and he said with a smile: "How many generations can it be passed on?"

Wealth is only three generations, this is the law of Middle-earth, except for the royal family, there are really not many families that can last more than three generations.

"Eavesdropping on Middle Earth, the founding prince of the country is not more than 10,000 stones, and sometimes there are things that take the title and degrade, but the so-called mean to talents, although Fusang is small, once the shogunate opened up, the heroes have tens of thousands of stones, hundreds of thousands of stones, hundreds of thousands of stones of the family are more than one, and they can be inherited for three or five generations, seven or eight generations, and even more than ten generations. ”

Qingtian Changsheng said this, but he was upright, and said: "My Qingtian family moved to Qingtian County, with this county as the surname, enjoy 20,000 stones, and there are five generations so far, and the wealth is better than the prince of Middle Earth! ”

Speaking of reality, Wang Cunye really hadn't thought about this problem before.

Zhu Yuanzhang of the Ming Dynasty founded the country, and the treatment of state-level heroes was only tens of thousands of acres of private land, and they could not directly govern the people, and there were many things that were cut and killed, and they could die well but two or three out of ten.

The local tyrants have tens of thousands of stones (mu), hundreds of thousands of stones, and can have private soldiers, and can rule the people, as for the treatment of the daimyo is far better than the prince of Middle-earth.

After the Song Dynasty, the feudal king was only nominally noble, and he could actually own very little land, and the Ming Dynasty was the most generous to the vassal king, in fact, the field that the vassal king could really grasp was only about tens of thousands of (mu) stones, and the thin Yuanzhi county king was only a few thousand acres.

The court of this world is similar, and later the Taoism was revealed, and the princes of various places were considered to have received the field, but only the princes had this treatment, but ordinary scholars and officials did not have this treatment.

This is a question worth pondering.

Wang Cunye was faintly aware that this was probably a problem with the positioning and perspective of the individual and the Dao Palace (official government).
