Spring and Autumn I Am King

Chapter 291: Burn? Huang Xing?/a>

At the same time, in the Linqiuyi Temple, the debtors whose names were named entered the teams one by one under the supervision of Wuzu. Please remember our website: dagger novel Ыqι.com.

Linqiu Yi Temple is the place where the doctors and local officials work, so the area is not small. First, after entering the door, you will see one or several low houses on both sides, which are connected to the fence, and the doors are open to the outside. This is the "who" for the small officials and the vertical temples from other places to change clothes, rest, and wait for the reception.

Today, it is hosted by Feng Rin, and there are several local clan children and military pawns assisted by the side to maintain order.

With a smile on his face, Feng Rin asked the cook to serve the prepared things, and the tempting aroma of meat porridge floated in the house, making the Chinese people who didn't have time to eat the food moved their forefingers.

"This is Doctor Zhao's gift for you to travel hard, and you can eat here."

Since everyone can borrow money, they are naturally not rich. When they see that they really have food, they are overjoyed, and they all give thanks. Feng Rin worked **** the poor people who borrowed money, persuaded them to be full, and only led them into the courtyard and into the hall after everyone was emotionally stable.

Stepping into the majestic lobby, the people of the country saw the dark case on the opposite side from a distance, and sat a dignified gentleman wearing a black crown and dressed in court clothes, and beside him was a tiger ben in armor. They bowed their heads in awe, and some people were already trembling and talking about asking for a few more days for the loan date.

"This doctor asked you to come here today, not to collect debts, but to test the bonds."

Zhao Wuxi's voice was loud and dignified. He asked everyone a few questions, reviewed their family background, and determined that most of them were honest Chinese people who had suffered an accident or a famine and had to borrow money without any clothes or brown.

Linqiu's loan is a grain loan called profit-making, and the interest is divided into five grades, or twenty and one, or eleven, or twenty and three, or twelve, or twenty and five. If the previous year is not clear, the interest will be rolled over to the second year. The more it accumulates, the more miserable it is.

So Dou Ping, who was sitting on the side of the hall, brought the other half of the prepared bonds, and asked the people of the country to issue the bonds together. The more than 100 bonds collected were finally put in a bamboo basket. Put it in front of the shirtless.

No matter what, the bonds are divided into two halves by a wooden board, and the creditor and the borrower each keep one. It was a nearly ten-year old coupon, and some of them were green, but they were only borrowed at the beginning of the year. Dou Ping finally calculated that the Qi people borrowed a total of 4,000 shi of grain from the Yi Temple, and the amount owed by each person ranged from a few shi to several hundred shi. If interest was added, it would be close to 6,000 shi.

"Six thousand stone grains can feed 200 soldiers for a year, feed 50 families, and buy 15 good horses."

Zhao Wuxi made a calculation in his heart, for Linqiu, who was full of waste. This number is not small, but it is not too much for the Zhao Wuxi regime who can benefit from the extravagant industry of pottery and the porcelain trade.

Anyway, it is a kindness to others, there is nothing to regret.

Looking at the fearful and helpless expressions of the people in Linqiu, he sighed and got up, letting Mu Xia and the others carry the full bamboo baskets and lead them out of the temple.

"Two or three sons come with me, I have something to say to the people of the country today!"

...

Under the deliberate convocation and laissez-faire of Zhao Wuxi's regime, more than a thousand people from the country have gathered outside the Yi Temple, and the subtle chatter has not stopped. Most of them were negative criticisms against Zhao Wuxi. People in Qi were very indignant about the fact that he "forced debts" without waiting for the autumn harvest.

But Zhu Shegu, who was on the sidelines, had some confidence in this mission.

"Although, as these horsemen said, the Marquis of Qi did not care for the people and increased taxes arbitrarily. However, the Chen family was extremely kind to the people, lending large quantities of utensils privately, and taking back small utensils from the public, for the benefit of the people of the country. The wood from Donglai Mountain and the fish, salt, and clams from the sea were transported to Linzi, but they still let me sell them at a fair price. Love them like parents, and belong to the Chen family like flowing water.”

The more he thought about it, the more complacent he became: "I thought that Zhao Wuxi was his great enemy, just as the son of the Chen family said, but today it's just like that. Although I know that people can restore crops and strengthen the defense, I don't know how to clean up the people of the country. My heart. To openly forcibly collect bonds before the autumn harvest, which is completely opposite to Chen's practice. In this way, even if the treasury is full, the people of the country will be hungry and indignant, and miss the rule of Qi. If I spread money and silk widely , to find those who are dissatisfied in the market, and it will surely make this town unstable!"

Just when Zhu Shegu, who had completely substituted her identity into Chen's minister, was looking forward to her self-improvement, she heard another commotion in front of her.

"Come out." Only then did he realize that the horseman Yu Xi had been looking at the gate of Yi Temple with a smile on his face, as if he knew what was about to happen.

A Xuanguan gentleman in dark clothes and wide sleeves led the crowd out of the temple.

Zhao Wuxi glanced around and saw black heads everywhere he could see. People had different expressions under their buns, some fear, some doubts, some dissatisfaction...

Seeing that the person who was supposed to come was almost here, he raised his voice and said, "To call people from Linqiu today, you may think that this doctor wants to repay the loan, but this is not the case."

As soon as these words came out, the nearly 100 people who borrowed the loan had a happy expression, while the Qi people who were a little indignant seemed to be empty with a punch, and suddenly they were stunned, and Zhu Shegu was even more dull.

"It's not a debt collection, what's that for?"

Wu Xie continued: "The sages of ancient times loaned money and grain to the people because they were afraid that you and the people would have no money, no clothes and brown to make a living, not for profit. But now it's the season of Qi, the monarch of the state of Qi. Greedy like wolves, they feed diners, soldiers, build walls, and like to hunt and gamble and other extravagant things, and the land tax is not enough to supply them, so they borrowed money to collect interest!"

Seeing that the people in front of Jianyi Temple gradually quieted down and listened to what they said, Wu Xie secretly thought that the plan was half completed.

He then indignantly attacked the wicked regime of Qi, and blamed all the unfortunate crimes suffered by the people of Linqiu on the head of Qi Hou: "The public office of Qi is tyrannical, and the people get three points from their crops, of which two points are to be paid. I give it to the office, and my own food and clothing only account for one cent. The property plundered by the office is rotten and worm-eaten, but even the village officials like San Lao are frozen and starved, and shoes are cheap in many markets in the capital. , the prosthetic feet are expensive, but the punishment is too harsh..."

The sun at the end of July was still a little hot, but Zhu Shegu felt cold all over, as if he had fallen into an ice cave. He naturally understood what Zhao Wuxi said, almost every word was correct, it was the current state of Qi. But what he was afraid of was that under the instigation of Zhao Wuxi, these people from Linqiu became more and more indignant. However, their dissatisfaction with Zhao Wuxi's summoning of the people to collect bonds had turned into dissatisfaction with the home country of Qi! This is definitely not what Chen shi wants to see.

"The Marquis of Qi has no way, and the doctors are tyrannical, so the Zhao family was ordered by the emperor to crusade non-official officials. Yu Huai protects the common people, and Hui Xian is the widow. Because of his merits, he became the doctor here on behalf of the Wu family. , its life is restored, so I also want to imitate the government of King Wen and King Wu, and restore it here!"

reform? Everyone has this concept for the first time, a kind of helplessness for the old life and the desire for the new life arise spontaneously.

Thinking about it carefully, it was precisely because of Doctor Zhao's protection that the entire territory of Linqiu was prevented from being ravaged by the Jin army, and this month's rule, apart from the fact that some children were detained for labor, there were not too many forced levies. Harvesting, the crops are unfolding in an orderly manner, and the autumn harvest will not be delayed.

Responding to everyone's emotions, Zhao Wuxi's voice also mentioned the highest, and he announced the first thing about "Renewal".

"The bonds that the Chinese people borrowed from Yi Temple in the past are all void!"

After all, in the midst of exclamations, he ordered fires from left and right, and threw the bamboo baskets containing nearly a hundred bonds into the fire, and burned them all!

The dancing flames devoured the wooden coupons and ignited the high in the crowd.

Feng Rin and his Linqiu disciples were the first to sing praises of virtue: "Your Majesty Shide Yuer and other Linqiu people can be described as generous!"

The debtors who reacted were delighted, and they all kowtowed and cheered: "Dr. Zhao, really my parents!"

The people from Linqiu Qi who were watching the lively outside also bowed their heads, and the sound of praise spread from the Yi Temple to all around Linqiu, while Zhu Shegu fell off the carriage, the silk cloth hat fell to the side, and was caught by Yu. Hi and the other ride were still shivering from the stand.

"This Qi people are so timid, everyone can be scared like this when they cheer."

In fact, as a businessman of the Chen family, Aunt Zhu She used to help the Chen family to lend out the big Dou and take back the small Dou, but today Zhao Wuxi has done even more, actually burning the bonds directly! With just this means and courage, he has beaten Chen Heng by a lot.

He felt in his heart that this time, except for paying the ransom, the rest of the tasks basically don't want to be performed here. But the minister is loyal to the master, and since what has been promised, even if you know it is not possible, you have to do it!

"Zhao Wuxi's means of buying people's hearts is actually a bit stronger than Chen's. The prince's eyes are shining like a torch. This person is indeed the enemy of Chen's! A hero in the world!"

...

Outside the Zhenyiyi Temple, the same thing happened, but it was hosted by Zhang Mengtan in the name of Zhao Wuxi. The first thing in this "reformation" was announced~www.wuxiahere.com~ After being burnt down, the people of Zhenyi turned their heads in the direction of Linqiu City to show their gratitude.

Zhang Mengtan praised the city officials: "The doctor's move is really a stroke of genius. Other monarchs and city leaders collect debts to collect profits, while the doctor is to collect hearts! Zhen and Linqiu had many debts before. Before we arrive, , Although the temple has been severely punished for many times, they are still unable to repay, so the interest is getting heavier and heavier. When the people of the country are overwhelmed, they have to flee. The population reduction is very harmful to the city. It is a useless coupon, but it expresses the intention of ignoring wealth and loving the people. With good morals and trust, his name of benevolence and righteousness will flow into infinity! The reformation will also be supported by the Chinese people one after another."

Although the original loan strategy was proposed by him, it was only an imitation of Jinmiao Company, Sicheng Le's and other measures to buy people's hearts. After being slightly modified by Zhao Wuxi, it was equivalent to using other people's debts as a favor for his own market. A lucrative thing.

Just two days after this, Zhang Mengtan received another biography from Zhao Wuxi, saying that the canonization messenger of the Marquis of Lu had arrived at Linqiu and invited him to watch the ceremony before the canonization day! (To be continued.)
