I am the king of the dead

Xu Chengzong took out some paperwork from his sleeve, and said helplessly: "It's true, I have some paperwork here, and I signed it with the contractors. They are all the guys in their shop, and I got them in private. of."

The Ming Dynasty had to speak with evidence. Zhao Hui, the captain-in-law at the time, was impeached for falsely accusing Marquis Wuding of Guo Yingsun's unfilial piety.

Of course Xu Chengzong would not use his life to make a joke, he naturally has real evidence.

Li Xian looked at it for a long time and said, "Very good, I'll check it out."

The case of the Risheng was an inspiration. Li Xian and Yang Han had a good discussion and planned to sort out the large and small workshops in Nanjing.

Since he didn't respect the Labor Insurance Bureau's regulations on labor remuneration, Li Xian couldn't be blamed.

Yu Qian once had a confrontation with His Majesty, saying that the rentiers seem to never unite, or even attack each other, but there is always a natural tacit understanding between them, a natural union, no need to rush to tell each other, no need to If they echo each other, they will communicate with each other.

It looks like a loose piece, but it is tightly combined.

Since the Risheng has surfaced, there are naturally countless Sunrises hidden under the water.

If you investigate, you must investigate to the end, and if you fight, you must punch to death.

Li Xian was not afraid that Xu Chengzong would tip off the Risheng. The purpose of the court was to completely eliminate this kind of circumvention of the Labor Insurance Bureau, not to take the opportunity to make trouble.

If this unhealthy trend can be curbed, that is what Li Xian hopes to see.

What Your Majesty wants is a peaceful world, not to hang meat eaters on the flagpole.

Xu Chengzong left Yingtian Mansion with his hands in his hands, returned to Wei Guogong's mansion, sat on a soft rattan chair, and looked at his family's mansion.

The house of the Xu family is now called Wei Guogong's mansion, but in the first year of Hongwu, it was called Wu Wang's mansion.

Emperor Gao was the king of Wu in the Han and Song Dynasties, and he lived in this courtyard all the time.

Later, when he ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, the Nanjing Imperial Palace has been under construction. In the 25th year of Hongwu, the Nanjing Imperial City was officially completed.

The first year of Wu was the year before the first year of Hongwu. Although the title only lasted for one year, it was of great significance to Ming. In that year, Ming was unstoppable and finally had the tendency to dominate the world.

This Duke of Wei's mansion is the place where Daming's dragon lives.

In the early years of Hongwu, Emperor Gao of Taizu built a new mansion on the grounds that the hero Xu Da did not live in peace, plus the original Guandi Temple, and named Wei Guogong.

Seven years before Hongwu, Duke Wei's Mansion and King Wu's Mansion had always been neighbors. In the tenth year of Hongwu, they were formally merged into Duke Wei's Mansion.

This mansion was acquired by their old Xu family with their achievements in the Dingding war, and Xu Chengzong lived there with peace of mind.

He was afraid that the yard would be lost in his hands, so how could he explain to Taizu Emperor Gao and Wei Guogong Xu Da that the yard they lived in was lost in Xu Chengzong's hands?

During the Nanya rebellion, Sun Zhong and Sun Jizong immediately occupied Xu Chengzong's mansion. At that moment, Xu Chengzong fully understood that even if those people succeeded in rebelling, they had nothing to do with him.

And they have to take their old Xu's family under the knife.

The dukes enshrined by the Ming Dynasty are all prosperous with the Ming Dynasty, and all lost with the Ming Dynasty, and rest with the country. If the Ming Dynasty is gone, they will have nothing.

He is so majestic now, all because Daming is still there.

At this time, he was sitting in front of the Jingmiao Hall, looking at the waterside pavilion, swaying his body, looking at the Taihu Stone in the yard, with a smile on his face.

Li Xian will not be greedy for his credit, on the contrary, in the credit book, he will definitely record a large amount of money from him.

Xu Chengzong shook his head and patted the rattan chair, bowed his head, and sang loudly: "In today's world, those who speak are saying that the world is safe and peaceful, and I only think it is not."

"Those who say peace and tranquility are those who are not foolish officials or flattering officials. They are not true, and they don't know how to govern chaos. The people are disordered. How can the world be peaceful and peaceful?"

"Hold the firewood and burn it below, and sleep on it. The fire has not yet ignited, and shout for comfort. If today's situation..."

The section he sang is "Jia Taifu Admonishes Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty", and the lyrics of the aria are Jia Yi's "Security Policy" by Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty.

During the time of Emperor Hanwen, some courtiers in the court always fooled Emperor Hanwen that the world was safe and peaceful, but Jia Yi couldn't stand it. It was obviously a crisis, so Jia Yi strongly remonstrated.

Xu Chengzong sang the aria while shaking his head, staring at the light rain in the sky.

The day of Ming Dynasty has changed a long time ago. Those who cannot see the trend of the times and adapt to the current situation will be crushed in the end and die in an ugly way.

Xu Chengzong was glad that he woke up early.

Li Gaoquan, the general manager of Risheng Merchant, is a very common name. He is a Shanxi merchant from Pingyao, Shanxi. The Qu family in Qixian County and the Li family in Pingyao are all well-known merchants on the ground in Shanxi.

On the surface of the Ming Dynasty, there was an official road and post road, but in the private sector, letters, goods, remittances, and correspondence were all delivered by the Civil Information Bureau.

His Majesty once inspected the Shanxi private printing Yanyin and Qujia major cases, and strictly investigated the People's Letter Bureau, because there was a need for people to communicate, and he never banned it.

However, the strict supervision of the imperial court and the ban on rice money also made the business route of the secret bureau of the People's Trust completely lose its role as an underground bank in the past, and the Li family suffered heavy losses.

The main industry of Risheng is Tongyuan, which spreads across Huguang, Jiangxi, Guangdong, and Guangxi, and almost monopolizes the business of Tongyuan.

Li Xian has no evidence for this, although he doubts that during the Zhengtong period, the fire in Tongyuan, which was set up by Emperor Taizu Gao in Zhongshan, Nanjing, was set off by the Risheng.

But because there is no real evidence, Li Xian will not label people indiscriminately.

At this time, Li Gaoquan and his shopkeeper Lei Lutai were drinking tea in Yanyun Building.

At the beginning of the establishment of the Labor Insurance Bureau, it played a certain role in alleviating the contradiction between labor and capital in Nanya, but this role soon became useless.

This naturally stems from the contract that Li Gaoquan created. This contract perfectly avoided the employment relationship and became a cooperative relationship.

Specifically, it is the employees of the Risheng, not all the employees of the Risheng, but the family members at the top, and most of them are shopkeepers of various shops. The imperial court has no control over their own family affairs.

The next point is the hired workers. This part is directly based on the minimum labor remuneration standard of the Labor Insurance Bureau, and this part, even if there is a contract to be a craftsman, but even so, various deductions will be made.

Another point is that it is a typical labor contract. The foreman forces the parents or guarantors of the hired coolies to accept a very small security fee and sign a contract for the contract. The poor coolies become the contractors of the foreman.

This is the magic of moving from hiring to collaborating.

This kind of contracted labor has existed in all dynasties, but the names are different. For example, before the Han Dynasty, it could be called a slave; in the Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties it could be called a slave;

Li Gaoquan and Lei Lutai are drinking tea, it is Longtuan Shengxue, which is a kind of tribute tea.

"I'm planning to go outside to avoid it recently, and I always feel that something is going to happen." Li Gaoquan waved his hands and cut a song.

His recent business is in full swing, and the imperial court has relaxed the sea ban. Although treasure ships with six masts and nine sails and nine masts and twelve sails are still banned, no matter what kind of regulation warships are, they are fully liberalized for warships with less than two thousand materials.

Tung oil must be used in shipbuilding.

His Tongyuan business can be said to be booming, he has made a lot of money, so naturally he wants to invite a famous actor from the south of the Yangtze River to sing.

This famous actor from the south of the Yangtze River sang "Jia Taifu Admonishes Emperor Wen of Han", which made Li Gaoquan very dissatisfied.

If Yuan Bin were here, he would immediately recognize this famous actor, the one he saw in Shenlexian back then.

At that time, there was a cold wave and heavy snow, so many merchants hoarded coal fried rice, waiting for the weather to clear and the snow melted, and sold coal fried rice at the coldest time. This famous actress named Huang Yanniang was paid a lot of money to sing there.

Later, the Qinhuai River froze, and the merchants who had borrowed money from the yellow rice jumped down from the tall buildings in Kagura Xiandu, smashed the ice, and grumbled into the Qinhuai River.

Now this Huang Yanniang is here again.

Huang Yanniang was wearing a heavy veiled hat. Her beauty was not a selling point. She was one of the rare women who performed arts without selling herself. This lithe voice could be said to be the most popular along the Qinhuai River.

If you simply want to play the piano and listen to music, Huang Yanniang is a must.

Since Majesty came here, Huang Yanniang's business has been getting worse and worse. It's not that there are fewer merchants in Nanya. It's hard to find three-legged toads in the world, but these two-legged merchants are everywhere.

It's just that there are many rumors in the market that Huang Yanniang is ominous.

After Shen Le Xiandu jumped off the building, Huang Yanniang didn't intend to wander in the world of fireworks, but Li Gaoquan gave too much.

Huang Yanniang scratched the strings, thought for a while and sang "Jing Zhong Jing".

Li Gaoquan said to Lei Juntai: "This Li Xian is more ruthless than Your Majesty. Your Majesty also pays attention to his willingness to gamble and lose when he does things, but what about Li Xian? He is a cruel official. He has a little problem. He wants to send his whole family to Go to Beiya!"

Li Gaoquan's desire to go out and hide for a while became stronger and stronger.

Li Xian is really too ruthless, especially this time to arrest the elders of Boai Township, they are the seven elders of the Li family in Baozhongbao, who were smoked out by Li Xian like smoked rats.

That appearance is really too miserable.

You have to make as much money as possible without losing your life. This is Li Gaoquan's idea.

"It's good to hide for a while." Lei Juntai also deeply agreed.

However, Li Gaoquan can go out and hide for a while, but shopkeepers like them can't hide at all.

Li Gaoquan finally got a little impatient. Huang Yanniang's singing was really good, and it was worth the price, but the more he listened to Jing Zhong Jing, the more he felt that something was wrong, and he always felt like a pair of angry eyes were staring at him.

"Okay, okay, don't sing any more." Li Gaoquan waved his hand, signaling her to go out.

Lei Juntai thought about it seriously and said: "Actually, we didn't do anything wrong. We followed the regulations of the Labor Bureau and made a lot of money. We didn't save a lot of money if we gave it to those foremen for nothing."

"Tongyuan's business can last for at least ten years, at least five or six years. Without Tongyuan to compete with us, the tung tree will grow for several years before it bears fruit."

"The tung oil His Royal Highness King Xiang tossed in Guizhou is at most enough for the official shipyard, but not necessarily enough."

Lei Juntai seriously suggested to Li Gaoquan that those foremen ask for a lot of money, so how much money can they actually save?

"Hey, you don't understand now." Li Gaoquan waved his hand and said: "If these hired workers start a quarrel, they will also be looking for the foreman, and they can't find us, right? Even if the court investigates, it has nothing to do with us."

"These employees have to pay twice or four times their daily labor wages today, and they won't be allowed to go to the house tomorrow?"

"It saves money and trouble. The key is to make the poor coolies obey. Why not do this three birds with one stone?"

"We are big taxpayers, and the director of the Baoyuan Bureau should be polite when he sees us."

Lei Juntai pursed his lips, confronting the imperial court, that is, confronting His Majesty, and the end of confronting His Majesty is the heads of more than a thousand people under the Heaven and Earth Altar, including three princes.

Li Xian is another cruel official who doesn't care about his reputation. Isn't this the same as stabbing a hornet's nest?

The recent big case of abnormal female households also made Lei Juntai feel confused.

His Majesty dispatched another [-] Jing troops to Nanya, plus the [-] Jing troops stationed in Songjiang Mansion, the [-] Jing troops from Ningbo Shipping Department, and the [-] Jing troops from Yuegang City Shipping Department.

On the ground in the south, the Beijing army of His Majesty's direct line alone exceeds [-].

The rotation happens every three years, which has become the norm. Daming's army is becoming more and more elite, and its reputation among the people is getting higher and higher. Some people have begun to say that it is difficult to defeat the Yue family's army, and it is also difficult to defeat the Zhu family's army.

The evaluation of the current Daming Army has approached that of the Yue Family Army.

The Yue Family Army is the army of the Martial Arts, not Yue Fei's private army. Back then, the Yue Family Army did not have the backing of a territory as large as the entire Ming Dynasty.

At the beginning, it was the small court of the Southern Song Dynasty who claimed to be the Yue Family Army. Zhao Gou of the small court of the Southern Song Dynasty still withheld money and food, so he gave Yue Fei a field envoy and let Yue Fei figure out a way for himself.

The military discipline of the Ming army is strict and the battle is heroic. The Hall of Valor can be seen everywhere, which makes people who have done something wrong always walk around the Hall of Martyr.

His Majesty is holding a knife in his left hand and a fishing rod in his right. Beneath his hip is the throne of the Ming Emperor, and his mind is still full of financial matters.

Lei Juntai believes that His Majesty's summary of financial affairs is penetrating.

Your Majesty is right.

Chapter 5 and Three of the Law of Confiscating the Family in the Jingtai Period

Lei Juntai felt that His Majesty was right, so he planned to join the imperial court. Right now, Songjiang Shipyard is in urgent need of talents, and he has already been there.

Li Gaoquan looked at Lei Juntai's expression, thought for a while and said: "The luxury of a thousand people is the physiology of thousands of people."

"If you want to change the luxury of thousands of people and return to Chun, you will almost destroy the physiology of thousands of people. This is an irreversible situation in which profits and losses flow between heaven and earth."

What he means by this passage is: the luxury of a thousand people is the vitality of 1000 million people.

If you want to change the luxury of a thousand people, you must cut off the vitality of thousands of people. This is the circulation of profit and loss between heaven and earth, not a situation that can be transferred by human power.

Li Gaoquan's point of view made Lei Juntai frown.

Li Gaoquan took a sip of tea, the aroma was overflowing, and said with a smile: "The foreign goods, leather goods, silks and satins, clothing accessories, gold and jade, jewelry, and ginseng on the wharf of Nanjing City, and the countless theaters, cruise ships, restaurants, and tea shops on the Qinhuai River are like mountains and forests." !"

"In the tenth year of Yongle, Emperor Taizong Wen wanted to rectify the style of extravagance and advised monks and Taoists to observe the precepts. One of them prohibited women from going to the temple to petition, but it was abolished after only one year of implementation."

"Do you know why?"

Lei Juntai shook his head and said, "I don't know."

Li Gaoquan leaned forward and said: "Because Emperor Wen's decree has just come down, women no longer go to the temple to petition. In Nanya, Zhejiang and other places, there are very few tourists, and there are uproars. The people are all mourning."

"There are hundreds of thousands of people who can't make a living. How do you let Emperor Wen continue to implement this decree?"

"Hu Wenbo, the prefect of Suzhou, ordered the theater to be closed. What happened?"

"Complaints abound."

"Businessmen gather in Suzhou City, there are always banquets, dozens of theaters, daily dramas, and no fewer than tens of thousands of people are fed."

"Once they change jobs, these tens of thousands of people will be unemployed, and eventually they will become bastards, beggars, thieves, and harm one party. Who will bear the responsibility?"

Lei Juntai was almost convinced, and now Yingtian Mansion is vigorously rescuing the deformed female households, Lei Juntai almost thought that Governor Li Xianli would soon order Yangzhou Shouma and prostitutes to change their jobs.

What will happen then?

Of course, Lei Juntai didn't know that because of the fact that Li Xian was severely infected with flower fistula, he had given up the idea of ​​ordering the thin horse and prostitute to change jobs.

It cannot be realized in the current Ming Dynasty, but it will bring greater harm to the people.
