Chapter 37 Civilized people, reasonable(1/2)
Scholars, farmers, industry and commerce.
The level is obvious.
Zhao Ce is the only scholar in the village.
Because he was too domineering in the past, everyone in the village didn't like him very much.
The various nicknames everyone usually uses are actually mocking him.
But until today.
Only then did they realize it clearly.
Zhao Ce is indeed a scholar.
He is a scholar who may become a high official in the future and be called a real great master...
So clear and organized.
Even if they haven't read a book, they are people who don't know how to settle accounts.
I also listened to him explain everything clearly.
At first, everyone just thought that this was because Uncle Six was being unkind.
But after Zhao Ce's calculations.
Only then did everyone know.
This cannot be described simply without kindness.
After all, it’s 400 articles!
Many people are exhausted from work.
There is less than 400 Wen left in a year.
This sixth uncle's family lost 400 Wen directly to others?
Uncle Six's face turned green and red at times after hearing what Zhao Ce said.
He blushed and said, "I, I didn't."
"When you asked me to work, you said you would be paid later."
"But you didn't give it to me, so what's wrong if I don't continue?"
The uncle next to me couldn't listen anymore.
"Lao Liu, you are so unkind."
"Zhao Ce will give you 400 Wen, and you can take care of the crops in the field for him every day."
"How much time can be wasted?"
"For 400 cents, we just go to the landlord's house to work part-time, and that's about the same amount of money we make in a year."
"You took so much wages, but you only worked for a few days."
Uncle Liu frowned and said, "I said it would be a few days at first."
"How can you blame me?"
"He doesn't even care about his own land."
"Do you want me, a relative with whom we are so distant, to fall in love with him?"
Uncle Liu insisted that he was right.
Shouting loudly in the fields.
He said that Zhao Ce had slandered him, and he was going to find Mr. Qingtian in the city to seek justice.
Zhao Ce's voice also rose slightly, but still calmly.
"Go to the city to find Mr. Qingtian to seek justice?"
"Okay, let's go then!"
"400 coins! Do you think my money was brought by the strong wind?"
"Do you still have "Da Gao" at home? Remember to bring it with you."
"When you get to the court, ask Mr. Qingtian to help you turn it over."
"Look at the record of your crime in "Da Gao", how many lashes you will get!"
"Da Gao" is a criminal code formulated by Taizu of the Ming Dynasty.
In the early Ming Dynasty, all farmers and every household were required to have a copy.
And they also sent special people to spread the word throughout Ming Dynasty.
Although it records the punishments for corrupt officials.
But there are also a few punishments for civilians.
When an ordinary person commits a small crime, there will be a "big devil" in his family.
It can also offset part of the crime.
It's Mingzhong now.
Although the name "Da Gao" still exists.
Just because of the multiple deletions and repeals of its laws.
In fact, it has no effect anymore.
Naturally, Zhao Ce didn't remember what punishments there were.
He said this just to scare Uncle Six!
quarrel?
How could he, a scholar, quarrel?
Civilized people naturally want to be reasonable.
really.
As soon as he heard what Zhao Ce said, Uncle Six, who had just been yelling loudly, stopped immediately.
He murmured: "You, don't scare me."
Old God Zhao Ce said: "Why should I scare you?"
"I am a scholar, and the first book I read was "Da Gao"."
"Not to mention "Da Gao", I am also quite familiar with Minglu!"
"Do you really think that I will be afraid of you if you file a lawsuit?"
Uncle Six swallowed nervously.
Aunt Six over there quickly said: "Mr. Zhao, we are all from the same village."
"There is no need to go to the government."
Zhao Ce glanced at her and said with a casual smile: "We are all from the same village, so naturally I wouldn't be so awesome."
"Isn't this the Sixth Uncle who said he wanted to go to the government?"
When the people nearby heard this, they all blamed Uncle Six.
"Lao Liu, you are indeed unkind in this matter."
"Zhao Ce is a scholar, so he must have wanted to reduce big things to small things."
"You also said you were going to report to the official."
"Why don't you apologize to Zhao Ce and discuss with him how to resolve this matter?"
Uncle Liu saw that no one was helping him anymore.
He was also a little panicked.
I originally thought that Zhao Ce was thin-skinned and would not argue with him too much.
He will definitely suffer the loss of being dumb.
It turned out that what they said was reasonable and well-founded.
Even he himself felt that he was extremely unkind.
Aunt Six was on the side, winking hard at Uncle Six.
Let him resolve this matter quickly.
This definitely cannot go to the government.
After all, they, farmers, only want to be safe and secure all their lives.
Over there, as the village chief, Zhao Youcai heard that his nephew had a quarrel with others in the field.
To be continued...
