Chapter 217: Those People
Then the girl's voice sounded, first of all, she introduced herself, and said seriously, "New arrival, listen up, my name is Wei Qingqing, the twelfth disciple of the old man, and you, behind me, are naturally the thirteenth disciple of the old man." Therefore, you have to call me Senior Sister, and I will call you Senior Brother. ”
Sun Li was stunned for a moment, looked at the girl who was not known how many years younger than him, his eyes flashed for a long time, and he said, "This Wei Qingqing girl, first, you already know that I am not here to apprentice, so you don't need to be like this." Second, even if I'm here to apprentice, even if I really want to call you Senior Sister, if you should call me Senior Brother, right?"
"Well, junior brother, what is junior brother? I've always called those people senior sister and senior brother, and they call me junior sister, and I haven't heard of this junior brother......
Sun Li has a black line.
And over there, Wei Qingqing was annoyed again, "Okay, okay, there are so many senior brothers and junior brothers there, are you annoyed, it's all over after calling the senior brother, anyway, you are not here to apprentice, why do you care so much." You just follow me obediently, let me introduce you and it's over. ”
"Okay. Sun Li looked at the impatient Wei Qingqing and didn't speak again.
Wei Qingqing nodded with satisfaction, walked forward, and then pointed and began to introduce in the huge courtyard that occupied the entire mountaintop.
"Look, the first one is my dwelling. And next to it is the residence of the eleventh senior brother, Zhu Chi. See the big chimney, that's where his iron-making furnace is, and he's making all sorts of weird things every day. And he is often barefoot every day, always red from the ground, really barefoot. ”
"And the residence of Senior Brother Zhu Chi next to it is that of Senior Brother Chen Hei of the Tenth Senior Brother. Don't say it, this Senior Brother Chen Hei, as his name suggests, is a black subordinate, there is no light at night, even if he stands in front of you, you can't see him. And he also likes to sleep during the day, so he basically can't be seen for several days. Big lazy pig one!"
"Oh......"
"And over there, that's what Ninth Senior Brother Feng Chip is talking about. Alas, these nine senior brothers, there is absolutely no surname Feng in vain, he is like a madman, every day with a calculation chip and abacus, he is constantly calculating, calculating, calculating, and I don't know what it is. ”
"Oh. Sun Li nodded, listened to Wei Qingqing's introduction, and smiled bitterly. To be honest, Sun Li is not very interested in these senior brothers on the other side, even if these people are really weird, but these have nothing to do with him. However, in order for Wei Qingqing to complete the things explained by his master, that is, the great real person he wanted to meet, he could only listen.
Then Wei Qingqing exhaled, pointed to another place, and continued to introduce, "That is the residence of the eighth senior brother, the eighth senior brother, the person is very good, and the equestrian skills are also good, and he also taught me to ride a horse." By the way, the name of the eighth senior brother is Wang Mang, well, Wang Mang, he has no characteristics at all. ”
Hmm, Wang Mang, Sun Li listened to Wei Qingqing's words, but his body shook slightly, and he looked at the residence, "Wang Mang...... The name doesn't have a special name yet?"
Wang Mang, if I remember correctly, in modern history, there is a number one person.
His most important achievement was to usurp the Western Han Dynasty and the Western Han Dynasty established by Liu Bang. The most important thing is that he did not overthrow all violent usurpations by force, but according to the general trend, the last emperor of the Western Han Dynasty was forced to concede by himself.
This is the way that has been cut off since Yao Shun. This Wang Mang can do this job of his courtiers, and he can be regarded as the first person in the ages.
And this is just the beginning, and after he came to power, a series of restructurings were earth-shattering, and even modern people were dumbfounded:
The first is the nationalization of land. Private buying and selling is not permitted.
The second is the redistribution of cultivated land. For the landless poor, the state gives land.
Thirdly, the freezing of slavery. It is forbidden to buy and sell slaves and slaves, and to limit the expansion of the number of slaves so that they will die out naturally.
Fourth, the implementation of a monopoly system. The monopoly of wine and salt, the monopoly of ironware, and the natural resources in the mountains and rivers are all owned by the state and exploited by the government.
Fifth, the state issues currency in a unified manner. It is forbidden to mint coins privately and disrupt the market.
Sixth, the establishment of banks and the establishment of a loan system. For the needs of sacrifices and funerals, the people can borrow money from the state without interest. On the other hand, for loans for the purpose of running agribusiness enterprises, the state charges interest on one-tenth of the net profit.
Seventh, implement a planned economy. Prices are controlled by the state, and businessmen are strictly prohibited from manipulating the market
Eighth, income tax is levied. The state levies one-tenth of the net profit from all those who make profits from free operation. The state uses this revenue as a loan or as a fund to stabilize prices.
Ninth, the implementation of low-rent housing policy. Five miles were built in Chang'an City, with a total of 200 low-rent square areas for the poor to live in.
Tenth, pay attention to new technology. He did all kinds of experiments himself, dissected the human body by himself, and invented vernier calipers with bronze texture. He also personally met with civilians who invented flying objects and gave them money.
It can be said that, from a certain point of view, Wang Mang is more like a time-traveling protagonist than the time-traveling protagonist in any novel, and his means and vision are not at all what people of that era have. And the reason why he is not known to many people is because he failed in the end. Forcibly restructuring, forcibly going against the general trend of history, although advanced, was crushed by the reality of the situation, and was finally killed by the rioters.
But no matter what, Wang Mang is the most powerful group of people in the ages, and he can be compared with Emperor Qin and Han Wu.
And just such a person, here?
This couldn't help but make Sun Li feel a little weird.
After the weirdness, he smiled dumbly and thought to himself, how is this possible? This is just a coincidence, but it just happens to have the same name.
Thinking of this, Sun Li smiled, turned his head to look at a residence next to this Wang Mang, and heard Wei Qingqing speak: "That is the residence of Seventh Senior Brother Zheng Xie." He's a nice person, but there's nothing special about him. By the way, Senior Brother Zheng Xie can see the clouds and understand the weather, and he especially likes to paint, painting bamboo is the best, like the real thing. ”
"Oh. Sun Li smiled, and smiled and smiled, but the smile froze on his face.
Zheng Xie's name is nothing, it is not common, and ordinary people can't see it a few times in their lives.
The same is true for Sun Li.
But after Sun Li heard Wei Qingqing say the next sentence, even if he was unwilling, he uncontrollably remembered a piece of information:
Zheng Xie, the word Kerou, the number of Li'an, also known as Banqiao, is known as Mr. Banqiao. Qing people, one of the "Eight Monsters of Yangzhou", are good at painting bamboo.
Zheng Xie, Zheng Banqiao! People are not famous, but his story is famous, and he is confident, who doesn't know?
Although in fact, the confident story is about Song Wenhe and Ke, and has nothing to do with this, but obviously Zheng Banqiao's fame is greater than that of Wen Youke.
So, Bi Zheng Banqiao, is this Zheng Xie?
Coincidence? Or is it a coincidence? If it's really a coincidence, then this is the second one, is there a third?
At this time, Wei Qingqing, who didn't know what Sun Li was thinking, had already pointed to one courtyard after another and introduced, "Look, that is the residence of the sixth senior brother, he likes to write stories the most, write some strange stories, and tell me when he finishes writing, it's okay." By the way, the name of the sixth senior brother is, Wu Chengen. ”
Wu Chengen?
Wu Chengen!
Sun Li suddenly felt that his head was about to explode for a moment, because this name was now heavier than the previous two people combined.
Wu Chengen, Wu Chengen!
What kind of world is this? I don't know. But I suspect that this is the world of "Journey to the West", so I want to go to the so-called Datang to find out.
However, the author of "Journey to the West", Wu Chengen is actually here?
The author in a novel that he wrote himself?
Write yourself?
Sun Li felt confused, and everything was chaotic in an instant.
