Eight generations of people insist on one thing, let’s suppress the urge to judge first.

Just for this persistence, I would like to ask you whether you accept it or not?

Among Gao Liheng's eight ancestors, one was skinned, another was beheaded, and the other six were sent to prison, exiled, and demoted to the throne. Almost none of them survived.

but!

No matter how the Gao family's official fortunes went up and down, except for the two ancestors at the top, everyone else basically escaped unscathed, and no one lost their life due to corruption.

Why?

It was difficult for the first two to start their own businesses.

At that time, the world was still so-so, and no gold-lettered signboard was erected, so I lost my life.

The world in the back is getting darker and darker, and the Gao family's signboard has been erected again, so it's like a fish in water.

Even if something happened, Gao Bancheng would not confess, no matter what the crime, it was all his own.

You said, who wouldn't like such a subordinate?

They all rushed to get it. Whichever court Gao Bancheng went to take office, he would celebrate with him at any court.

No matter how big the hole Gao Bancheng has dug through generations of greed, he can always "miraculously" leave a life behind, and after a while, the limelight has passed, and he will make a comeback.

As a result, the Gao family became an evergreen tree in Dali officialdom, passed down from generation to generation.

Okay, I finished talking.

Let’s talk about “technique”.

The so-called Taoist skills and Taoist skills, without skills, cannot support the Tao.

What technique?

Of course it's the art of taking bribes.

If you offer generosity to someone else, it's generosity. The problem is that you also have to have something to offer.

Gao Bancheng has a lot of ideas.

The first is corruption, the second is exploitation, and the third is expropriation.

Needless to say about corruption, all the money and food allocated by the superiors will be confiscated. If half a copper plate is leaked, the gold sign of the Gao family will not be erected.

What, the boss doesn’t allocate money?

There is a way.

There will be a flood today, a drought tomorrow, a locust plague the day after tomorrow, and a plague the day after tomorrow.

Anyway, it doesn’t matter where Gao Bancheng goes. Judging from his resume, he is a composite of the plague god and disaster star.

If you serve as a county magistrate for three years in the prosperous Jiangnan, he will be able to report two years of drought and two years of floods, with a locust plague in between.

Even the rules of time have changed.

When there is a disaster, relief must be provided, and money and food must be allocated for disaster relief.

The disaster reporting document was reported from the county to the prefecture. The prefect looked at it, smiled slightly, stamped it, and sent it to the prefecture.

The governor of the state looked at it, smiled slightly, sealed it with a big seal, and sent it to the capital.

When the big shots in the capital's cabinet saw it, they smiled slightly, sealed it with their seals, and sent it to the emperor.

The prince only has two eyes, so how can he see so much? There are people who have not been in court for thirty years, and there are many ways to fool him.

The jade seal is covered and forwarded to the Ministry of Household Affairs.

The Minister of Hubu looked at it, smiled slightly, and stamped it with a big seal.

Dial the money!

Divide the spoils!

Yihongyuan walked up and watched the beauty playing the flute and the oiran twisting her waist.

Hey, some people may say again, this is not a difficult thing to do, others do it too.

no the same.

The Gao family has a golden name, and everyone can trust it. If something goes wrong, the Gao family can shoulder the responsibility. Those who allocate money will have a share, and everyone can calculate how much they will lose as soon as the money comes out of the treasury.

Therefore, as soon as Gao Bancheng submitted the disaster reporting document, it was equivalent to sounding the clarion call to divide the spoils.

Only Gao Bancheng can play the trumpet. It is easy for others to imitate and make mistakes. Even if things are finally accomplished, the money will not be secure in his pocket.

He was confessed just because he couldn't tell the truth.

Hey, just such corruption everywhere.

When one county is too corrupt, he will take office in another place.

Once the place has been changed, I will be promoted.

A prefecture is better than a county.

Gao Bancheng has more work to do, and one mansion can have several disasters at the same time.

Okay, this is the first skill, called taking stolen goods.

Then comes the second technique, exploitation.

Exploiting whom?

Of course, they are the wealthy households who have wealth but no foundation.

There are even more tricks, extortion, extortion, fabrication, frame-up, and frame-up are all routine operations.

What Gao Bancheng likes most is litigation.

If a small dispute or friction between two families comes to him, he can find you guilty of beheading.

Then they started to collect money. Whoever gave more money would be fine, and whoever gave less money would get stabbed.

Those who litigated the lawsuit were dumbfounded and their intestines were filled with regret.

But what's the use of regretting being green? Just stuff it with money.

When life is at stake, the two families compete to give, until one can no longer give.

OK, case closed.

The winning family will not retreat and will receive a double share of the family wealth.

When the people saw it, this lawsuit was too dangerous, and gradually no one dared to fight it.

No one hits?

It doesn't matter?

Gao Bancheng has a lot of troublemakers under his command. As long as you are targeted by them, your whole family will stay at home and cause trouble for you.

Just kill a beggar and throw it into the yard.

Come here, kill someone.

The official jumped out immediately. The body was still warm. Come on, he said.

What to say?

Of course it's silver.

Since ancient times, county magistrates who confiscate homes and magistrates who exterminate families have many ways to waste money as long as they are dark-hearted and thick-skinned.

It doesn't matter where Gao Bancheng takes office, the local area will cause a lot of chaos and snow in June.

Okay, this is exploitation.

Finally, there is scraping.

Harvesting whom?

Of course they are ordinary people.

With clever names, excessive taxes and excessive levies, Gao Bancheng was so easy to use.

Have children, collect taxes.

People are dead, taxes are collected.

Passing by, collecting taxes.

Cross the river and collect taxes.

Dig wells and collect taxes.

Shit, collect taxes.

Drink and collect taxes.

Enter the city and collect taxes.

Go out of town and collect taxes.
