[Comprehensive] Survival of the Last Emperor

Xuzhou, a place that has free shipping and heating after 2000, makes Hu Hai, who doesn't like both, envy and hate.But now, its name is still called Pengcheng, because Xuzhou has its own name, and the name Xuzhou will not be known until Cao Wei moved to rule Pengcheng during the Three Kingdoms period.

When Yingzheng arrived in Pengcheng, it was already the golden autumn and September. Originally, he wanted to fish for the Jiuding that was said to be sunk in Surabaya, but when he went to ask Bao Erzai for his opinion, he was busy looking for someone to fight against the landlord Hu Hai, very casually. He said, "Don't fish it, you won't be able to catch it. We already have a Jiuding at home, so why not fish it? If you don't catch it, it would be embarrassing and hurtful" and ran out in a hurry.

Originally, Hu Hai felt that "passing Pengcheng, fasting and praying at the shrine, and wanting to go out of Zhou Ding and Surabaya. If thousands of people have no water to ask for it, it is a bit embarrassing to record it in the history books, but there is already a Jiuding at home. If you can't get it, others will laugh at you a few times, "Father is lucky if he doesn't have a son".If it was another Tian family father and son, Hu Hai would have to worry that such ridicule would affect the relationship between father and son, but there is no problem at all in his own home.Firstly, Yingzheng loves himself enough; secondly, with the vision of Mount Tai Fengchan in front of him, Yingzheng won't be too disappointed, so he doesn't bother to patch up such trivial things.

But what Hu Hai didn't expect was that when he came back from finding the cards, he found that Ying Zheng didn't send anyone to get the Jiuding, but stayed in the palace to approve the test papers for a day.

Looking at the papers sent out by Ying Zheng, they were full of circles and crosses, and many mistakes were corrected. While copying the papers, he casually asked Zhao Gao who was next to him: "What's wrong with the father? Didn't you say that you are going to fish for Jiuding?" Why? Why don't you go again?"

Zhao Gao raised his head and looked at the culprit.

"Huh? What kind of eyes are you... because of me? What am I doing? Ah! Could it be because of my words?" Looking at Zhao Gao who was nodding slowly, Hu Hai slapped the back of his head and said to himself with a puzzled face. Yu said: "When did the father listen to people's persuasion so easily? This is unscientific! This is not in line with his character design and painting style!" Hu Hai looked at Zhao Gao with help-seeking eyes, hoping that Ying Zheng's side My confidant can give himself an answer.

"Your Majesty is not easy to be persuaded by others, but Your Majesty listens to the young master's advice very much! Because your Majesty's people are not slaves of sons!" Zhao Gao told the truth.

"Uh..." Hu Hai felt ashamed and decided to do something to please his father.

Well, it's September now, and it's time to eat crabs.Although Yangcheng Lake is a bit far away, Hongze Lake is quite close. You might as well make a trip by yourself and grab a basket of crabs to show your filial piety to your father.

Speaking of which, Father hasn't eaten crabs yet, has he?What tears of sympathy shed!Xianyang is inland, so there are a lot of mountain delicacies, aquatic products...hehe...except for the Yellow River and Lihe River, there is nothing delicious. Even if there is something delicious, the ancients would not eat it.

Take this crab for example. Crabs mainly infested rice. During the Spring and Autumn Period, crabs became a disaster. Southerners ate crabs in order to eliminate them.Not only do the northerners not eat crabs, they even hang crabs on the door in the Guanzhong area to scare the so-called malaria ghosts.

What a waste!

Hu Hai did what he said, and grabbed Zhao Gao to go out. He ordered 500 people under the pretext of "hunting", and then told Zhao Gao: "Zhao Gao, don't tell the father. This son wants to give the father a surprise." .”

"But it will take you two days to go out. How can I hide it from my servant? Young master, don't go!" Zhao Gao grabbed the reins of the horse. Don't think that this servant doesn't know. He said he was filial to his father, but in fact you wanted to eat it yourself. Is it a crab?If you want to eat crabs, the servants will send someone to catch them. If you go out alone, what should you do if something happens to you?

"I don't care! Anyway, you have to hide it from me for two days, or hehe... You have to see. Let go!" Hu Hai said, while lashing Zhao Gao's hand with a horsewhip, seeing that he still refused to let go , and found a few more strong men, dragged him away, and flung his horsewhip triumphantly away, leaving only Zhao Gao behind him with the appearance of Erkang posing.

It is about 400 miles from Pengcheng to Hongze Lake. Hu Hai and others all rode with one person and two riders. As long as they work hard and change horses without changing people, one day is enough to go back and forth.But the road conditions are not good these days, and it is too dangerous to ride a horse at night, so Hu Hai plans to go back and forth in two days.

In this case, Zhao Gao's task will be arduous, and he has to help Ying Zheng hide it for two days. This... this... This is basically an impossible task.

Looking at Ying Zheng who was sitting at the top, eating while being unhappy because "my baby didn't eat with me, but ran out for a while", thinking about the stickiness between the father and son, Zhao Gao felt that there was no need to wait until that night. During the meal and afternoon tea, Ying Zheng should have realized that Hu Hai was not at home at all.

On the other side, after rushing around for a day and arriving near Hongze Lake, Hu Hai climbed off his horse almost on his knees.

Cough cough cough!I have never ridden a horse for such a long time in my life. I only feel the burning pain in my two thighs, and I am not myself anymore!

But when he saw the soldiers who had run so far, they were still alive and well. Hu Hai could only support himself to stand upright, and smiled twice at the soldiers passing by, saying "the leader waved his hand" shape.

Damn!It hurts!

After setting up the tent, the soldiers began to bury the pot and cook.In the non-war period, there is a lot of wild game this year, so just send a few out to hunt, or ask the people to buy some sheep and cattle, plus the dry food in the army, the soldiers will have no trouble making do with it.

The trouble is this little...Young master, he doesn't eat this or that, he's so picky about food, he insists on eating crabs.

There was no other way, A Mu, who was sent by Zhao Gao to serve Hu Hai, had to go to Li Zheng in a nearby village, and asked Li Zheng to find a cook who was good at making crabs to cook for the young master.

Fortunately, everyone at Hongze Lake eats crabs, so it is not difficult to find someone who can make crabs, and soon a mother and daughter were found.

Hu Hai had eaten crabs before, but he had never made crabs. He insisted on watching the cook handle crabs. He said that he wanted to learn how to cook crabs for his father, so he took Amu to the kitchen with him.

In the kitchen, Hu Hai saw a woman in her 30s washing crabs.And a seven or eight-year-old girl is opening the crab shell nimbly with her fingers, and then using a spoon to pick out the crab roe and crab meat from the crab, and put it in a bowl on the side.

The little girl's face was sallow, her withered yellow hair was tied hastily by a thin rope of unknown color, her clothes were patched and patched, her little feet didn't wear socks, and she only wore a pair of tattered ones, which were broken in many places. , just straw sandals tied together with rope.

Hu Hai, he is a good young man with integrity when he is not involved in conflict of interests, or facing people who are not dangerous to him. Then, without waiting for the little girl to refuse or kowtow, she picked up a crab and asked how to pick and eat it.

Of course, no one dared to ask Young Master Da Qin to do this kind of rough work, but after Hu Hai made the reason that "I want to learn to be filial to my father", no one dared to respond.

The little girl taught Hu Hai fearfully. Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit awkward, Hu Hai took the little girl to chat.

While chatting, Hu Hai found that the rhythm was a bit wrong.

After Qin destroyed the Six Kingdoms, it distributed the land of the nobles of the original Six Kingdoms to ordinary people.The little girl's family used to be divided into dozens of acres of land. At that time, her family lived well with other families, at least they could eat enough.But last year, the little girl's father got a serious illness.In order to see a doctor for his father and save the life of the head of the family, his mother sold all the fields in the family, hoping to see a doctor and buy medicine to cure his illness.

But everyone understands the medical level of this era.I don't know what disease the little girl's father got when he arrived. Anyway, after taking some old and expensive medicine, the money from the little girl's land sale soon disappeared.Without money, there is no medicine, and without medicine, the disease cannot be cured, so the little girl's father died in the end.

Not only that, but the little girl's family is also in debt.

If it weren't for my mother's good craftsmanship, when there are happy events in all directions, people will often invite my mother to the banquet, and maybe the two mothers and daughters will sell themselves.

Someone in the family got sick, and then the whole family worked hard for decades. When they returned to the story before liberation, Hu Hai heard a lot of it, whether it was before or after 2000.Generally speaking, it's just a few sighs after hearing it. Hu Hai doesn't have so much time to sympathize with others. What he cares about is another matter.

"You mean, many people have sold their land just like your family?" Hu Hai said slowly in order to let the little girl understand what he said.

"That's right! In our village, at least two adults have sold their land. Like... Gouzi's house, Miaomiao's house, anyway, many people have sold their land." The little girl counted with her fingers.

"The land is for you to eat, how can you sell it? How can you live if you sell it?" Hu Hai asked anxiously and angrily.

"That can't be helped. If you lack money, you will always have to sell it. Selling land is better than selling people, right? If we really can't survive, my mother said that we should find a big family in the city to join us and become tenant farmers for them." The little girl He looked at Hu Hai innocently.

"Huh!" Hu Hai snorted coldly, a big family in the city!Land annexation!

How long did it take for the land to be re-divided since Qin destroyed the six kingdoms?Two years or three years!In a village, 20% of the peasants have lost their land again. If this continues...in less than [-] years, when it is their turn to take over, they should have a headache to deal with land annexation.

Land annexation is almost accompanied by the ups and downs of every dynasty. The closer to the end of the dynasty, the land annexation will be more terrible.Think about it, if a catastrophe breaks out, once these landless peasants become "princes and generals, they would rather have a seed"...

Don't talk about catastrophes, they don't erupt frequently. Hu Hai remembers that in the few years before he traveled, the foodie country was almost every year in the southwest, or it was an earthquake, or it was a drought, several typhoons came from the southeast, and the north was another Sandstorms, you can't see your fingers. If you want to change it to the ancient society, it is estimated that "the princes and generals are better than you" several times.

Thinking of this, Hu Hai lost the mood to eat crabs.

The author has something to say: By the way... In 04, the Celestial Dynasty experienced drought, typhoon and earthquake. In ancient times, peasants had revolted several times long ago... Do you have any good ideas on land annexation?I'm referring to the example in the history book... um... It's better to be here, the land is owned by the state and cannot be bought or sold...
