The separation of the Zheng family can be regarded as tearing away the veil of tenderness of the aristocratic family and putting a very cruel truth in front of everyone.
Zhu Gaosui was not a good person either. He mobilized scholars from poor backgrounds to write articles like crazy to expose the background of big landowners and wealthy families... Although they also had some property and were much better off than ordinary people, otherwise they would not be qualified to study and take the imperial examination.
But the problem is not worrying about scarcity but inequality.
We take less than others, which is simply more infuriating than not taking anything.
After this group of people's crazy leaks, ordinary people finally knew the inside story... just like the Zheng family, which got Zhu Yuanzhang's imperial pen and was truly the first family in Jiangnan.
Obviously, the court wants to give you some preferential treatment!
In fact, a considerable number of aristocratic families have so-called clan property, which is the land that maintains the family's operation... The harvests from these fields are usually used to offer sacrifices, provide relief to orphans and poor people, raise children in the family, and support the elderly and sick.
It sounds very good, but the power of this distribution is in the hands of the elders of the clan, and it goes without saying how much selfishness is involved in this distribution.
Also, let’s still talk about the Zheng family. Their Zheng family norms were highly praised by Zhu Yuanzhang. There was a family tradition and they taught their children according to this method.
After Zhu Gaosui heard Xu Jingchang's explanation, he suddenly felt bad.
"How to shoot? Horseback archery, just like my father did. By the way, the boss's skills have improved recently and he can hunt deer. I even saw him cutting off the velvet antlers and taking a bowl of warm deer.
Blood...look at this, I'm going to have another niece and nephew."
Bago agreed crisply and made it very clear.
"Look, this is my result."
Shoot the tiger yourself and watch Sun Lang!
"Oh my God, how much does Dongpo layman look down on Sun Quan?" Zhu Gaosui sighed.
As a result, I heard this time that the Zheng family had offended the emperor, caused a disaster, and exploded many demons and monsters. Some people clamored to recognize their ancestors and return to their clan and change their original surnames. It was the Zheng family who had harmed them.
It has to be said that from this moment on, Sun Quan's two major characteristics were undoubtedly revealed, one was sinister, and the other was good and fun-loving... So it was not surprising that he attacked Jingzhou secretly.
Zhu Di frowned and suddenly smiled: "Since you all know, then call him here too... By the way, send a team of palace guards over to protect him to prevent accidents."
"Of course I have to work hard to practice my riding and shooting skills. Next time I will kill a tiger and let people see me."
In the past, this kind of thing was only discussed in Shilin at most, and then disappeared.
Zhu Di heard it all. I want to increase the annual revenue and send people to collect taxes. As a result, the expenditure will increase. Are all the officials greedy?
"Which ancient man is this? Why haven't I heard of him?"
Suddenly Zhu Gaosui felt bad.
In addition, what other temple properties, mountains, forests, rivers and lakes...
"By the way, His Highness King Zhao." Xu Jingchang poked his head out of the carriage and said with a smile: "I'm not the only one on the assassination list. If you want to publicize it, if anyone needs to be protected, tell me and I will batch it.
Produce tiger-shooting carts. One cart is not expensive at all, only three thousand taels of silver."
"Xia Yuanji, you won't talk nonsense and deceive me, right?"
"Really?" Xu Jingchang was still nonchalant. Suddenly he turned his head and shouted into the room, "Zhu Gaosui!"
Xu Jingchang smiled and said, "Look, I'm telling you that you should be like Zhu Gaosui when you have a child. Do you like to hear it?"
"ah!"
Xu Jingchang is still on the assassination list. This matter has not been found out yet, but whether it is true or false may never even be found out. After all, the cost of just writing a list is too low.
Repeatedly attacking Hefei became a matter of course.
Let's put it this way, ordinary bows and arrows can only scratch an itch, not even the skin.
But it’s hard for you to be sure, there really isn’t any truth in it.
"Your Majesty, it's not that I don't want to implement it, but I am afraid that if I implement it, the gains will outweigh the losses. Not only will the court not be able to increase its annual income, but it will also spend more money. I have to report to Your Majesty."
"Zhu Gaosui!"
"This is a treasure that I researched after imitating an ancient man and painstakingly thinking about it."
All kinds of dirty things come out.
Zhu Gaosui was so angry that he gritted his teeth and wanted to strangle Xu Jingchang to death. This guy was hiding at home. Apart from watching the fun, he was training this myna to talk.
Xu Jingchang couldn't help laughing, "If you say you are not knowledgeable, you are not... Do you know how Sun Quan shoots tigers?"
It was also the first time that Zhu Gaosui heard that the heroic Sun Zhongmou had such a dark history.
Zhu Gaosui nodded, "Of course I have read this. Su Dongpo is also very ambitious compared to Sun Quan."
And this is just for the Zheng family. There are countless dependent families who have land in the name of the Zheng family.
There is no doubt that there is also academic land, which is the land that supplies ethnic studies.
This guy has the mentality of making trouble no matter what, and stirs up trouble everywhere... His group of scholars also learned this trick, and they became more serious and lively.
Zhu Gaosui sighed. Next time he goes to see his boss, he should bring back some deer penises and mend them himself.
In order to save his life, he also risked his life.
Because the picture was so beautiful, many people laughed out loud.
"By the way, you haven't told me how Sun Quan shot the tiger yet? Tell me quickly."
Xu Jingchang smiled and said, "So Dongfeng doesn't want to go along with Zhou Lang, and Tongquechun has locked up Er Qiao. When it comes to true ability, King Wu of the Wei Dynasty is really incompetent."
"Just wait, we're not done yet! If we don't avenge this, we will live together forever!"
Just when they were enjoying themselves, someone came from the palace and announced that Xu Jingchang had entered the palace.
Nothing but personality.
At this time, a myna flew out and landed on Xu Jingchang's shoulder.
"Quan'er told you at first that the Dama Golden Sword went out, but the tiger didn't listen to him, the King of Wei and Wu. Not only did he avoid the arrow, but he also turned around to kill Sun Shiwan. Fortunately, he was around
The guards fought tooth and nail to protect him, and Sun Quan managed to survive." Xu Jingchang smiled and said, "What do you think we would do next if it were you?"
Xu Jingchang smiled and turned his head, "Tell me, what's your name?"
The only thing that can break the defense is probably the eight-oxen crossbow with amazing power... But the Ming army no longer equips this kind of thing. It is too expensive. Where can I get it now?
So, from a certain perspective, Xu Jingchang created the Ming Dynasty version of the tank.
Not only that, so much land rent given to the Zheng family over the years should be returned, or handed over to the court by the Zheng family. They can't pay the land rent and fines at the same time. Isn't that a cow with two layers of skin peeled off?
But Lao Xia all shook their heads and expressed that they were helpless.
Then suddenly one day, the ice and snow melted, revealing the sewage all over the place...
Some people even changed their surnames and pretended to be members of the Zheng clan in order to gain the protection of the Zheng clan.
Zhu Gaosui suddenly exclaimed, Brother Quan actually shoots tigers like this?
Do you want to show some face?
Zhu Gaosui looked up to the sky and sighed, "My ancestors have harmed people!"
But he soon showed a proud sneer, "Do you think I have nothing to do? Let me tell you, I am not afraid. I will raise a dog later and call it Jingchang!"
If you throw gunpowder at it, it'll probably be fine.
It is roughly a large mountain that has been frozen for hundreds of years. It is crystal clear and beautiful from a distance.
What’s even more amazing is that this myna even agreed, “Here we are!”
Zhu Gaosui took a closer look. From the outside, this carriage was just larger than ordinary carriages and made of more materials, especially the wheels, which were actually as wide as three normal carriages.
So Xu Jingchang wrapped himself in a quilt, thought hard, and came up with a solution.
If he didn't attack by surprise, he wouldn't be Sun Quan.
The inside of the car is lined with an iron plate, and there is a layer of hardwood board outside the iron plate. Inside the hardwood board, there are three layers of rawhide.
Xia Yuanji hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, I never dare to deceive you... Last year, in order to increase the annual income, I, as well as Duke Ding, set up tax cards at the Jubao Gate and rectified the treasure banknotes. As for land tax, but
I don’t dare to act rashly, I’m afraid Duke Ding also knows it well.”
Zhu Di was one of them. Not only was he happy, he also saw the opportunity to increase his income... If he got all the family land, school land, and temple land in his hands, how much income would this increase?
I have been working hard to make money for so long, how could I miss such a big piece of fat?
He has been calling Xia Yuanji, the Minister of Household Affairs, for three consecutive days to discuss this matter.
Zhu Gaosui's eyes widened, and he suddenly screamed, "Xu, how dare you scold me! Just wait, I will give birth to a son, and he will be called Zhu Jingchang!"
Others clamored that the Zheng family had forced the land to be handed over to them, and now they wanted to redeem it.
That's not all. The bottom of the car is protected by double iron plates and eight layers of cowhide, layer upon layer.
Xu Jingchang shook his head, reached out and patted the carriage in front of him, and said with a smile: "If you have that ambition, it's not Sun Shiwan. He built a tiger-shooting carriage, just like this. It's well-protected and solid. There are a lot of things hidden inside.
People prepare their bows and crossbows. If they encounter a tiger, they drive the tiger-shooting cart up, greet them with swords, guns and sticks, and kill the tiger."
They even compiled a book specifically for the Zheng family, called "A Hundred Years of Iceberg Records".
But since Zhu Gaosui took control of Di Bao, there was no need to hide it.
Faced with the threat, Xu Jingchang spread his hands and said without fear, "Don't be wishful thinking. Emperor Taizu has already stipulated that your son is of the same generation. Can you still change the ancestral system?"
Zhu Gaosui sighed in a low voice: "Then you should be like Sun Zhongmou in giving birth to a son. Isn't this considered a compliment?"
Xu Jingchang pointed to the special carriage in front of him and showed it off to Zhu Gaosui.
Xu Jingchang smiled and said: "I haven't heard of many of them. Do you remember Su Dongpo's first poem, two of which are called Shoot the tiger yourself and watch Sun Lang?"
"What do you call it?"
This time there was no problem, Xu Jingchang also put on the Qilin suit, and then boarded his specially made tiger-shooting vehicle.
Zhu Gaosui snorted coldly: "I won't help you make money, don't even think about it!"
"Let's do this. I will give you the agency right. If you sell one car, I will give you one hundred and fifty taels!"
"Brother, I did it! Don't give it to anyone else!" Zhu Gaosui's change of expression was so fast that it would put a Sichuan Opera master to shame...Xu Jingchang didn't bother to talk nonsense, he went straight to the palace.
Zhu Gaosui looked at his back and laughed loudly, "You fool, Xu Jingchang, you are a big fool! This kind of tiger-shooting vehicle should be used in military formations. I will sell it to my father later and wait for the money!"
