If you go to the north of Saibei, it will be considered a relatively severe punishment. If you go to the Song Dynasty, it will be considered as exile for thousands of miles.
However, the Tang Dynasty was different from the Song Dynasty in that it attached great importance to border management. In fact, it could not be considered an exile.
And another thing is that migration to the south is different from the north, and the climate is warmer. It is also a wasteland, but the conditions are much better when the climate is warmer, so it is not considered a heavy penalty.
Coupled with the "violent sentiment" of a group of young officials, the punishment was finally successful...
In the somewhat funny atmosphere, it seems less abrupt.
So Xiao Yu finally breathed a sigh of relief. In this way, no one should be able to tell what's fishy.
Of course, Xiao Yu himself still has to stay in the court and serve in the court, and the meaning of the three-year fine itself has a nature similar to "nothing will happen next time."
But after all, it was a whole family moving south, so it was still a big event.
The news spread quickly, especially among Xiao Yu's circle of friends. That night, he was invited by Wang Jing, Pei Ji and others to the mansion in the south of the city for a secret meeting.
"Brother Xiao, is this true?"
Wang Jing's face was full of doubts and nervousness, "Li Er, is he really so cruel?"
"It would be too..."
Pei Ji's face was also full of disbelief, making people feel stupid.
That's right, in the eyes of ordinary people, this is an exile!
Xiao Yu also had a very witty smile on his face, matching the script behind the whole thing.
Xiao Yu's acting skills are no joke. This time, he made sure that the real inside story has not been leaked. So when he smiled bitterly, Wang Jing, Pei Ji and the others suddenly felt sad and had sad faces on their faces.
"Alas...it's true that things in the world are impermanent, everything is impermanent!"
Wang Jing felt exhausted mentally and physically for a moment.
Why was he a good person before and suddenly he was exiled!?
The sudden turn of events was simply shocking.
That, but exile...
"In this plagued land in the south, if Brother Xiao goes here, I don't know how many of his relatives will have to suffer!"
Wang Jing said this, but the sympathy he showed when he looked at Xiao Yu was very different.
What this look means is that once you are exiled, your Xiao family will be completely shut down.
It's a nice way to say "suffering", but what's really cruel is that the miasma is a place where people can't live at all, and countless members of the family may die of illness if they go there.
Just like many words in modern Chinese actually have their origins in ancient times, there are also metaphors in this period that imply these rhetorical devices.
And when Wang Jing said this, Pei Ji, Li Tiancheng, Cui Baihe, and this large group of people also felt sad.
This sounds a bit alarmist, and it's very strong!
But Wang Jing and others are not really alarmists, because they really think so.
Novel words have ancient origins, and the sayings in the Song Dynasty are naturally the same. The south is a land of miasma, and the north is a land of bitter cold.
Anyway, except for the most prosperous grain-producing areas in the Central Plains, all other places are poor. This concept has emerged in the circles of aristocratic families and celebrities in this era.
As for the existence of such concepts and thoughts, of course it cannot be said that Wang Jing and others are trying to scare people, but that in their perception, the world is like this.
But now the situation is slightly different.
Xiao Yu's eyes were filled with a wry smile, but there was something strange deep in his eyes.
It wasn’t that he couldn’t understand what Wang Jing and Pei Ji and others said, it wasn’t that he couldn’t listen to it, it wasn’t that he objected to it, it wasn’t that he had any opinions on this perception. He had been working as a county magistrate in a wealthy grain-producing state since he was a child.
He has had no worries about food and clothing since he was a child, even in troubled times.
Such times and shared memories naturally made Xiao Yu in the past and even now firmly believe that except for the Central Plains, no other place was suitable for human beings.
Otherwise, how could Li Er settle here?
At this moment, Xiao Yu just learned a lot of information about Li Sheng.
Especially the bunch of "wonderful skills" that Li Sheng has developed. Whether these things are expensive and powerful, and whether they are worth buying as an industry, this information...
In fact, it’s not really new information, nor is it secret information. Wang Jing and Pei Ji’s group are all from aristocratic families, and they have a room full of dead soldiers. Not to mention that these people are a team with five surnames and seven looks, and they exchange information.
It's even more amazing when you get up.
But for various reasons, this information is not the information they want to see... The long and detailed production reports are too tiring to read. Reading this kind of thing is pure torture for those who have read poetry and poetry.
What's more, this thing is not like Tai Shigong's article, which has emotional value when read... but to confirm with one's own eyes Li Sheng's awesomeness, this is completely negative emotional value.
For this reason, the stereotypes of Wang Jing and others are still stereotypes - but Xiao Yu is different.
Regarding Li Sheng's various transactions, since Xiao Yu was determined to find a way out, and had a subtle but serious "ideological decline", he slowly...
I really understand that the steel mill, paper mill, and pen making workshop run by Li Sheng are all really profitable businesses.
Apart from anything else, Li Sheng's Zicheng Zhai has recently opened several new stores, and Xiao Yu became suspicious after seeing the detailed price information... The profit of Zicheng Zhai is probably far more than
It's so easy to add a few new stores.
For ordinary merchants in Chang'an, it is not easy to expand business in Chang'an, even with just one store.
As for Li Sheng's profits... After some investigation, Xiao Yu even learned that in Li Sheng's hometown, which is also the rumored Youzhou area, Li Sheng even bought many schools and hospitals for his hometown village.
And what about these things? The cost is no joke, and most of these incomes must be related to Li Sheng's Zichengzhai income.
From this point of view, Li Sheng's business is not only possible, but also in conscience, it has a bright future...
But the future is promising, so if you really want to participate, you really have to make up your mind. After all, you have a very close relationship with Wang Jing and Pei Ji's gang...
What does it mean if you go hang out with Li Sheng at this time? By then you will no longer be able to behave as a human being.
However, for the survival of the Xiao family, a prominent family that was once, is today, but has an uncertain future... Xiao Yu can't care so much anymore.
After having a hard time with Wang Jing and others, Wang Jing, Pei Ji and the others all looked gloomy and gloomy. After all, the rabbit dies and the fox dies...
Xiao Yu is this one, so what about the next one?
Who knows...
But Wang Jing and others had sad faces, and they had to endure worries and fears to comfort Xiao Yu...
