Chapter 307 Chapter 307: You understand it [two in one]
Outside Fugu City.
A donkey cart moves forward slowly.
The young scribe with a weak face is sitting casually.
One leg is bent and laid flat, the other leg is bent, and the knee is used as a temporary table. The right hand is holding a pen to fill in the numbers on the short book form, sometimes doing mental calculations, sometimes pinching calculations, and taking out the abacus to fiddle twice when the data is not sure.
Dozens of volumes of field data that have been measured are placed beside the young scribe, and objects such as moment, guide, rope, and gauge are collected in a large bamboo basket. Ten young and middle-aged men in coarse linen clothes followed silently. Donkey cart left and right.
"What's so loud?"
Young scribes are concentrating on proofreading the measurement data.
A few faint cries entered the eardrums.
That tune has twists and turns, which makes people upset.
In the past few days, he got up early and stayed late every day, climbed mountains and waded, and almost visited the entire area under the jurisdiction of Fugu City. In order to obtain more accurate measurement data from fields with various shapes, he has worked hard. After the measurement, he has to sort out, summarize, and file...so busy that he falls asleep every day with the pillow on.
It didn't go well today, and he was annoyed.
There is still a six-point error after double-checking the data.
After finally sorting it out, I was disturbed by noise.
The young scribe felt a little angry.
The entourage who followed the young scribe to go out to measure went out to inquire, and soon came back to reply: "It seems to be Mr. Kang."
The young scribe put down the letter form: "Kang Jishou?"
He is not in the city, why did he run outside the city?
Could it be that the job at hand has been done?
The young people roughly estimated the workload and efficiency of Kang Shi, calculated the approximate time, and came to the conclusion—no, it is impossible to finish it in such a short time even with superpowers. The young scholar asked the donkey cart to stop on the road for a while, and soon saw Kang Shi's party coming from another road. The latter was riding a horse, and there were more than two hundred people, big and small, old and young, behind him.
At the same time, Kang Shi also noticed him.
Trot forward a few steps on horseback.
greeted: "Wang Chao."
The young scribe, that is, Gu Chi crossed his hands to salute him, and said, "Ji Shou, where did you... come from?"
No matter how you look at it, they are just a group of ordinary people.
As soon as they approached, two or three hundred voices rushed into his head, and Gu Chi leaned back slightly uncomfortable.
Kang Shi said: "According to my lord's order, I will arrest you."
In just a few sentences, Gu Chi roughly got the general information from the voices of these common people—Kang Shi took the paperwork for recruiting workers from the government office to deceive Zhujia Village, and even handed over all the people in the village, young and old. Now these common people are cursing in their hearts The new governor of Heyin has all kinds of vicious sentences and vocabulary.
Gu Chi ignored these useless noises.
He was curious about what happened in this village, which deserved his lord's anger, and let Kang Shi personally take people out—was it too much use of a sledgehammer to let Wenxin scribes do this job? You must know that Kang Shi's pile of work hasn't been finished yet.
Gu Chi guessed: "Are they harboring fugitives?"
Or is the whole village planning to rebel?
Kang Shi said: "No, it's hard to explain this matter."
Gu Chi: "Walking and chatting?"
Anyway, we are on the same road, so it’s time to pass the time.
Kang Shi didn't refuse, he lowered his head and signaled to Yu Zi who was following beside him, asking her to take a seat in Gu Chi's donkey cart.
Yu Zi glanced at the wooden cart pulled by the donkey, and then at the strange young scribe on the cart, a little afraid to approach.
But this is what Kang Shi meant.
Yu Zi didn't hesitate for a while.
After saluting to Gu Chi, she climbed up—fortunately, she was born thin and did not take up much space, otherwise it would be really difficult to sit on this wooden cart with almost nowhere to get off—sitting upright, with a nervous and dull expression and a stranger people's resistance.
Gu Chi glanced at her from the corner of his eye, and asked Kang Shi who this was. Kang Shi briefly explained how he and Shen Tang met Yu Zi, and learned from Yu Zi the absurd things common in Zhujia Village. Regarding this, Gu Chi is not surprised.
Don't forget, he is good at reading people's hearts.
Gu Chi raised the corners of his lips, revealing a hint of sarcasm: "Does Ji Shou know something? When a cockroach ran to your feet to show off its power, the cockroach had secretly passed on the family for more than eighteen generations, and it was returned to the cockroach ancestor. The ancestral hall was built."
Cockroaches are commonly known as cockroaches.
This truth sounds novel.
Kang Shi touched the words several times, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that the words were not rough, so he asked: "Where is this a common saying? It sounds funny and interesting. Isn't that the reason, these people are 'cockroaches' , children and grandchildren, endless reproduction..."
The whole village is used to this.
It's best to rely on the iceman to talk about marriage. It doesn't matter if you can't talk about it. It's convenient, quick and less troublesome to find someone you know a little bit to "see" for yourself. You don't have to worry about punching and kicking him, and you don't have to worry about the brothers from your natal family coming over to show off your mother-in-law.
What you buy is your own property.
As long as the succession of the family is not delayed, it doesn’t matter if you are beaten half to death or driven crazy—a woman is fine as long as her stomach can give birth. People are crazy and stupid, but the cubs born are neither crazy nor stupid, are they?
Of course, it would be even better if you have hands and feet to help you with work, honor your parents, and serve you comfortably...
Gu Chi said: "Oh, my lord said so."
Kang Shi: “…”
Gu Chi talked about Shen Tang chatting with him earlier - Gu Chi thought that Shen Tang would let Lin Feng settle down with the common people with Chu Yao, and took the opportunity to let Lin Feng experience a lot, but Shen Tang kept Lin Feng by his side, trying to avoid Lin Feng contacted the common people in private.
The reason given by Shen Tang is—not all common people are human beings, some are just beasts in human skin! These "beasts" have no moral constraints and weak minds. The more ignorant you are, the more your behavior tends to be a beast...
It was also the end of that conversation, and Gu Chi began to consciously pay attention to the voices of many common people. Although there are simple, kind, and warm-hearted people, there are also ignorant, greedy, evil, and inferior to beasts...
Measuring the land these days and dealing with these common people has also really made him see what it means to be one thing in front of the face and one thing behind the back, and one thing on the surface and another thing in the stomach.
Looking weak does not mean harmless.
The appearance of poverty does not imply simplicity.
Kang Shi frowned when he heard the words.
Well, he really deserves to be the protagonist he fancy.
Gu Chi: "..."
Tell the truth—
He has always believed that the threat and lethality brought by Gongxichou to Shen Tang is not as great as that brought by Kang Shi's scholarly way. Since the time of health came, the protagonist began to be unlucky visible to the naked eye.
Meeting these bad literary scholars—
Fate is not hard, can't bear it.
Gu Chi skipped this topic and asked: "Zhujia Village is so rampant, it can be seen that the situation in the nearby villages is also indispensable. Is it necessary to check from house to house? Rumors spread that most of the women who have been bought will be hidden, and they cannot be hidden..."
Gu Chi swallowed the remaining half of the sentence.
Those who can’t hide, most of them will be killed.
If these women will bring disaster to the family, the best solution is to sell them to someone else, hide them, or kill them. Anyway, the child has been born, and the difference between a woman's life and her death is whether there are more children or fewer.
It is cruel, but it is reality.
Yu Zi quietly listened to the two gentlemen chatting.
Hearing this, my heart clenched tightly.
She hadn't expected this at all.
this will…
To startle the snake?
Gu Chi said again: "To capture a thief, first capture the king, first capture the sellers, and then listen to the news from them. However, it is recommended to impose the death penalty on the sellers, and to suspend the punishment for those who buy people from the sellers. The woman was rescued and then severely punished."
Yu Zi secretly clenched the material of the clothes, Kang Shi did not ignore the flash of unwillingness on Yu Zi's face, and said in a low voice: "It is true that you can't scare the snake, but everything can be changed. Who said that there is only a crime of 'slightly selling' Can they be punished?"
Not thinking about governance, leaving a mess.
These messes are loopholes that can be exploited. With Kang Shi's ability, he can swim in these loopholes to his heart's content!
One of them is the conflict of laws between the two countries.
The details of the charges are different, and the sentencing standards are different.
For example, in the state of Xin, only the parents of both parties agree to the marriage, and the relatives of both parties are notified to be considered a husband and wife relationship. However, in the state of Geng, it is necessary to go to the government to register. If it is not registered, the relationship between the husband and wife does not count, and it is considered "adultery".
For adultery, one is more ruthless than the other.
Men and women are either flogged, or paraded in the streets, or fined, or pounded rice, or thrown to build bridges, roads, and city walls...
This regulation of the Geng Kingdom is also related to their land tax system, to prevent the common people of the Geng Kingdom from paying less land tax through this channel.
"If the laws of the Geng Kingdom rule them out on adultery and deny the relationship between the two of them..." Kang Shi said slowly with a cold smile on his lips, "...I remember that there is also a rule in the Kingdom of Xin, which is about the detailed measurement of male adultery. ..."
An adulterer, thirty floggings, torture.
Then there is a detailed rule, making the woman pregnant, the crime is one more serious; giving birth to a female heir, another 30 floggings, and cutting; The end point is all five punishments.
The corner of Gu Chi's mouth twitched slightly.
Good guy!
This loophole was understood by Kang Shiwan.
To put it simply, it is to use the relationship of the Geng State to deny their husband and wife relationship, and to convict them of adultery; on this basis, use the laws of the Xin State to sentence adultery (harmonious) adultery, and then sentence them according to the number of children born. Who can stand a set?
As for saying, they may have also registered it?
This is impossible.
Kang Shi is currently doing household registration.
If there is registration, he can also make the other party unregistered.
As for whether there will be any problems with this operation?
He Yin who can make trouble has already drank Mengpo soup and is waiting to be reincarnated as an animal. Zheng Qiao is also far away from the sky, so he can't control it. Finally, and most importantly, will the news cause changes among the common people? Will it scare the snake away?
Most likely not possible.
Because the crimes are in accordance with the law.
The common people will only be afraid, and then rush to re-register, and they will never think that Shen Tang will be rectified and sold. Kang Shi can also take this opportunity to collect detailed household registration information, which is also convenient for checking the population later, or arresting people, or saving people.
Emmm…
Gu Chi smiled and cupped his hands in compliment: "Ji Shou, it's wonderful."
Kang Shi returned the salute: "Wang Chao, absurd praise."
One is riding a horse and the other is riding a donkey cart.
The two smiled sincerely and frankly.
If outsiders who don't know it read it, they will probably feel that the friendship of gentlemen is probably like them.
Well, Yu Zi thinks so too.
She didn't know what the two were talking about.
Ten sentences can understand one or two sentences.
But judging by their appearance, it should be a good thing.
Yu Zi couldn't help admiring the two of them.
Especially Kang Shi, Mr. Kang.
Can't help but think of Kang Shi's heroic figure of capturing dozens of households in Zhujia Village by himself, and he is more and more fascinated by the literary spirit and literary heart.
She believed that this was A Niang's secret guidance.
It must be like this.
That's why she went there that day, recognized Zhang's accessories on Shen Jun's waist at a glance, and accidentally intersected with them. She has a way out.
Yu Zi's voice fell into Gu Chi's ears.
Out of the corner of his eye, he looked at the girl with a half-smile.
asked Kang Shi with his eyes: [How is this girl's talent? 】
Kangshi is unclear.
However, with Yu Zi's savvy, inherited from her mother's intelligence, it may not be much lower—
【Cultivated, it can be used. 】
Gu Chi was a little surprised when he heard this.
The wheels of the donkey cart rolled forward slowly.
Not long after, I entered Fugu City.
All the people in Zhujia Village were sent to jail.
The place is not big, but it’s no problem to squeeze in for a night.
When Shen Tang heard the news, it was already dark.
The second day.
The sky is still dim.
Fugu City is already noisy.
The reconstruction work in the southwest corner was vigorously carried out. After the propaganda of the guards walking around the streets and beating drums, more and more common people knew that the southwest corner was recruiting workers. Taking care of two meals a day can at least take care of 80% of the fullness, and pay back the settlement wages after doing the work every day.
At first some people did not believe it.
How is such a good thing possible?
No matter how good the county guard is, he won't be taken advantage of.
But there are also common people who trust Shen Tang—they pulled out the cancerous tumor in Fugu City the next day after they came to Shen Tang. He was also the first to enjoy the benefits, and then spread it to ten or ten to hundreds.
The southwest corner of Fugu City gradually became alive.
However, today's focus is not here.
Boom boom boom boom—
The common people near the government office heard the long-lost drumbeat. At first they thought it was an auditory hallucination, but after listening carefully, they found that it was not. Someone was really beating the drum. Even those interested in going over to watch the fun saw a thin figure clenching his teeth and beating the drum that was almost for display with all his might.
Some common people also recognized the drummer.
"Isn't that the beggar from the ruined temple outside the city?"
Although Yu Zi has been cleaned up at this time, some common people who are familiar with her recognized her identity, and the crowd whispered for a while. Yu Zi naturally also heard those small voices, but she didn't care about them now, and tried her best, as if she wanted to vent all the grievances of so many years with the sound of drums!
Finally, she succeeded.
Yu Zi knelt down, held the paper high in both hands, pulled her throat, exhausted the strength of her chest and lungs, and said with tears of blood: "Xiaomin Yu Zi, a member of Zhujia Village, now wants to sue my own grandma!"
As soon as this remark came out, the onlookers were in an uproar.
This, this, this—
In a simple sentence, the amount of information is overwhelming!
What made them even more unbelievable was that Yu Zi came here to take the lives of the two blood relatives, and she did not hesitate to suffer ten sticks for this!
Sue blood relatives, twenty rods.
Nian Yu Zi is young, not yet as good as the hairpin, cut it in half.
Shen Tang asked: "So, you still want to sue?"
Yu Zi categorically said: "Yes!"
