Fu Bunen was scolded by Jin Shan, and he was so frightened that his body was like chaff, and he kept shaking. Fortunately, he was a little fat, and his center of gravity was still stable, so he did not fall down immediately.
Jin Shan didn't say anything, but Fu Buyen calmed down and said, "Sir, what Wu San said is not comprehensive. The younger one gave him wages..."
"Shut your stinky mouth! If you pay him, Wu San won't scream and complain, and he won't come to sue you. You know that it's difficult for him to sue, and he can't even speak, let alone sue.
If you are illiterate, you can bully you. What kind of heart do you have?"
"Ulala, ulala," Wu San said beside him, gesticulating and gesticulating, but he didn't know what he wanted to express.
Jin Shan made a gesture to Wu San. Wu San was very smart and stopped immediately.
Jin Shan said: "This is nonsense! I have already ruled out the arrests and learned that Fu Buyen owed Wu San wages. He owed Wu San not only wages, but also owed others. He owed Wu San even more because he bullied Wu San.
Third, you can’t speak. The public has a very bad opinion of you. They say that your family has tens of millions of dollars, but you are very stingy and don’t pull a dime. You are a typical iron cock. You bully honest people and also bully the disabled. Your crime is unpardonable and should be severely punished. You do
You have done bad things, and now the people are blaming me for the bad things you did. They say that I am not doing things well, and yet I am wronging a good person and dragging the complainer to the street for public display. It is really stupid. This incident was originally caused by you.
You don't think about your own mistakes, but bite others randomly. It really shouldn't be done. Today, you have to make it clear to everyone. If you don't, don't blame me for being rude. You know, there are all kinds of torture instruments here. If you want
Have a taste and experience. I will not stop you and will fulfill your wish. Are you willing?"
"Oh, no, no, no, sir, those torture instruments should be used by those who need the experience most. Young people don't need to experience it, they really don't," Fu Buyen said.
"Okay, you don't need it, I will satisfy you. However, your skin will not suffer, but your heart will ache. You have to come up with three hundred taels of gold, otherwise, hum -" Jin Shan said.
When he heard the three hundred taels of gold, Fu Buyen trembled with fright, and his heart immediately began to twist, as if he was about to die! His voice was small and trembling, and his heart was extremely empty, and he said: "Master, can you give me less?"
This is my income for most of the year."
"Why, it can be less, as long as two hundred taels of gold, but you have to hit forty big boards. It's your choice." Jin Shan said.
"This, this, this, is there a third way?" Fu Buyen asked.
"No, if your heart hurts, your butt won't hurt. If your butt hurts, your heart won't hurt. What do you need?" Jin Shan asked.
Fu Buyen secretly glanced at the government officials on both sides. They were all tall and burly, and it would probably hurt him to death if he hit him with a wooden board. What's more, with forty big boards, you only have one life, and money is an external thing, so you can't spend it very much.
If you want life, you don't need money, if you want money, you don't need life. You have to choose one of the two. It's not difficult at all.
After painful thinking, Fu Buyen chose not to fight and paid.
He asked his servants to bring three hundred taels of gold and gave it to Jin Shan. Jin Shan asked the clerk to write down the details of the court appearance and payment, and then calculated the wages that should be paid to Wu San, and exempted Wu San from his so-called debt.
We can no longer ask Wu San for money.
After Fu Buyen completed the gold delivery, he stared at the gold and refused to look away for a long time. He knew very well that the gold was not easy to come by. He was really unwilling to give it out and complete it in minutes. However, this would save him
It's worth suffering the pain. The key is that it doesn't affect going out, and it is still useful for image protection. If you ask for money, you will be beaten. The result of the beating will be that your walking posture is wrong, which makes people laugh.
The case is not over yet.
Jin Shan said: "Forty big boards, you have no choice, it shows that you are smart. If you give money, you will not be beaten. If you don't give it, you will be beaten. This beating is waived because you gave the money, but the matter is not over yet. For
To educate other people who want to try the law, I have decided that you will be a negative teaching material. Since it is a teaching material, it must have a protagonist. You should be the protagonist and let everyone see it, so as not to say that I am lying. Look, there are many people outside.
While observing this court trial, the final step of the case now is that you have to go around and let everyone know each other, and learn from them. Otherwise, many people will start to follow suit, and by that time, the people's customs will have changed. You
This parade is a rehearsal, so you know what is allowed and what is not allowed. Do you understand?"
"I understand." Fu Buyen said. He complained secretly, but there was nothing he could do.
Then, Jin Shan ordered his men to drag Fu Bunen through the streets. He was tied up with five flowers and a sign stuck on his back that read, "I owe wages for being rich and unkind."
During the parade, people on the street stopped to watch. After the parade, they started talking about it. For about a year or two, everyone gave Jin Shan a thumbs up and praised him. The previous misunderstandings were wiped out and they had special respect for Jin Shan.
The time it took for Fu Bunen to be paraded on the street was also half a day, which was exactly the same as Wu San's time. After Wu San learned about it, he danced with joy. It was really a joy. Not only did he get his wages, but he also punished the evildoer. He only knew how to pray to Wu San.
Jin Shan kowtowed, sparing no effort, and praised Jin Shan as a good county magistrate when he met everyone.
After Jin Shan handled this case, he became more confident. It turns out that it is not difficult for a mute to file a complaint. What is difficult is knowing the difficulty and ignoring it. Or the difficulty lies in using your brain. As long as you are willing to use your brain, you can find a way.
Jin Shan heard drumming again. It was such an eventful time. Before this matter was over, another case came up.
He is an official of Baozheng Bao.
Baozheng said: "There was a case of ghost cannibalism in Xiehu Village."
Jin Shan asked: "What a ghost? Have you seen it?"
"No, sir, one person saw it, and I couldn't believe it. Two people saw it, and I was a little tempted. This time, four people saw it with their own eyes, so I had to believe it. So I came to report to the official.
, let’s see what’s going on.” Bao Zheng said.
"Did four people see it?" Jin Shan asked.
"Oh, no, strictly speaking, it's five people."
"Why is there one more person?"
"This person is none other than the wife of the deceased."
"Wife? What was the name of the deceased?"
"The deceased's name is Xie Hu. The deceased's wife is Xie Yin."
"Thank you Yinshi?"
"Yes, Xie Hu from Xiehu Village married a beautiful woman from Yinjia Village. Xie Hu was single for many years. As soon as he got married, he found a beautiful wife, which aroused the jealousy of many people. Especially the bachelors, and the couple
My yellow-faced mother-in-law is not interested and she is jealous that Xie Hu married a beautiful woman." Bao Zheng said.
"That is, if a beautiful woman is married by an unfavorable person, it will definitely arouse the jealousy of others. Tell me, who are those four people? Why are they at Xie Hu's house?" Jin Shan asked.
"The Xie Hu family invited us to have dinner and drinks," Bao Zheng said.
"So, why do you want to treat guests to drinks and dinner?" Jin Shan asked curiously.
"It's because of Wang Banxian's words," Bao Zheng said.
"What words?"
"Wang Banxian said that there will be a bloody disaster." Bao Zheng said.
"What kind of bloody disaster? Where do you start talking about this?" Jin Shan asked.
"How it happened. There was a man named Xie Jianfu. He was born in Xiehu Village. He lost his father when he was a child. His mother did not remarry, and life was even harder. They dragged him up and never got married. Because his family was poor, no one was willing to marry him.
He, and his mother, was not very polite and liked to scold people. People in the village looked down upon his family, saying that his family was like stones in the toilet, smelly and hard. The eldest brother was not young, and he had never been able to marry. He was also very ashamed and could not follow him.
Compared with others, his status in the village was very low. Later, he found a widow and managed to form a family. The husband who died just after the widow's death was young. However, Xie Jianfu was unmarried and it was the first time for a young man to get married. The widow just made do with it and condescended to him.
When it comes to marrying off, because she is a widow, she is second-hand and does not have many opportunities to choose." Baozheng said.
"Of course, traditional folk habits and customs are very powerful and cannot be changed in a short period of time." Jin Shan said.
"He is married and finally has a family. The widow is very kind and treats the elderly well. Xie Jianfu's mother is old and needs help. The widow takes good care of the elderly. Xie Jianfu works hard outside to earn money to support his family. He can do whatever makes money, as long as he can make money.
, he is willing to do anything, including things that others are not willing to do, things that are likely to cause panic or taboos, he is willing to do it, because no one is willing to do it, and as long as he does it, he will make money. As long as he can make money, he will do it.
He was willing to do it, and he also wanted to have a half-boy and half-girl relationship with the widow, so that he could continue the legacy of the Xie family and make the people in the same village not laugh at them, but win their respect. Based on this, he worked hard to build a family and let the family live.
It's better." Bao Zheng said.
"What happened next? Did you get what you wanted?" Jin Shan asked.
"It can't be that easy. I don't know why. Xie Jianfu didn't get any children, and there was no news about the widow. I don't know what the problem is." Bao Zheng said.
"So, what is Xie Jianfu's main job? What is the chilling job you mentioned? Is he doing it?" Jin Shan asked.
"Yes, what Xie Jianfu mainly does is making figurines."
"What are figurines?" Jin Shan asked.
"It is used as an idol for burial, which is equivalent to a dummy that takes the place of a dead person, such as a pottery figurine, a stone figurine, a wooden figurine, a straw figurine, or a paper figurine. The 'domestic' is used to replace the living person in the burial," Bao Zheng said.
"Oh, I see, that's what they do. Confucius seems to be right." Jin Shan said.
"What did Confucius say?"
""Mencius: King Hui of Liang 1": Zhongni said: 'The one who first made the figurines has no descendants.' They are used to resemble people." Jin Shan said.
"What does this mean?"
"He said that the people who first made the wooden figurines and earthen dolls for burial must have had no descendants! This is because the wooden figurines and earthen dolls that looked like humans were used for burials. How could the people starve to death?" Jin
Shan Yan said.
"That's it! Confucius is very powerful. He would have figured out that he had no heirs long ago." Bao Zheng said.
"Yes, the job he does is actually to use living people to replace the figurines. It is indeed difficult to do and will cause others to feel uneasy. No wonder he has no heirs. This is the reason. I don't know if he knows it or not."
Jin Shan asked.
"I don't think it's clear, but it may be clear that there is no other way out but this," Bao Zheng said.
"His wife failed to have children, so has his status in the family plummeted?" Jin Shan asked.
"Yes, I heard from the neighbors that Xie Jianfu's mother needs special care in life, and she often scolds others, especially her daughter-in-law. The scolding is very unpleasant, saying that she is a hen that cannot lay eggs, which makes Xie Jianfu's wife very uncomfortable and very uncomfortable.
Sad, crying every day, not knowing what to do, worried every day, always lamenting his bad fate. As time passed, Xie Jianfu’s wife looked older, and diseases came to her door. Sure enough, it didn’t take long for Xie Jianfu’s wife to
Once you get sick, you will die."
"It's really a pity." Jin Shan said.
"Yes, he can't help it. I can't ignore it, otherwise I will be scolded as an unfilial son, and my wife can't be offended. After all, I will live with my wife for a longer time in the future. He is in the middle and suffers from both sides. In fact, he would rather work outside.
, who don’t want to stay at home." Bao Zheng said.
"What happened next?" Jin Shan asked.
"After Xie Jianfu's wife died, Xie Jianfu did not get married again. He concentrated on serving his mother and did not continue to have contact with women. Because his family was poor, the possibility of getting married again was almost zero." Bao Zheng said.
"Then does he often attend funerals?" Jin Shan asked.
"Yes, he often participates, and he is welcome to go to many places. Because no one wants to do the work he does, he was a little embarrassed at first, but later he became fully involved and became relaxed and relaxed," Bao Zheng said.
"What exactly?" Jin Shan asked.
"It means pretending to be the pathfinder, being the vanguard, and walking at the front of the team. This sorting is to put the lowest-ranking ones at the front, the highest-ranking ones in the middle, and the second-ranking ones at the end." Bao Zhengyan said.
"So, if you work in this industry, you can definitely make money without losing money, because people die every month or even every day of the year. They die from various reasons. If there were no dead people, there would be no such profession." Jin Shan said.
"After his wife died, the villagers thought he was going to leave and no longer engage in this industry. Who knew, the business was getting better and better. Who knew that good times don't last forever, and good flowers don't always bloom. His business got better and better.
No, it's strange. Fewer and fewer people are dying, and he is on the verge of unemployment." Bao Zheng said.
"Is this really happening?"
"Yes!" Bao Zheng said.
"So how did he get through it?"
"Thanks to the care of the neighbors, the deceased Xie Hu's family." Bao Zheng said.
"In other words, Xie Jianfu and Xie Hu are neighbors?"
"Yes, the two families are not far apart. You can hear them even if they speak a little louder," Baozheng said.
"Then, the relationship between their two families is very good. Just now you said that Xie Hu often takes care of Xie Jianfu. A good relationship between the two families is naturally a good thing. Neighbors should be like this, be harmonious, harmonious and beautiful, take care of each other, and stay together for warmth
." Jin Shan said.
"Yes, it stands to reason that this is the case. Everyone thinks that they are not close and should take care of each other," Bao Zheng said.
"There is a big difference between a family with a woman and a family without a woman. A family with a woman seems more dynamic. A family without a woman seems lifeless." Jin Shan said, then sighed.
