"What are you going to do to kill people to pay for their lives and pay back debts?
These are the rules from ancient times to the present.
Ding Dian Novel, if they owe rent to the palace, they have to pay it.
I will be the debt collector there."
"But I have heard people say that in the Spring and Autumn Period, there was the so-called purchase of justice with a thousand pieces of gold.
Isn't it that Yang Yizheng is not going to imitate the ancients and do this?"
"You are not old, but you have read a lot of books, and you know this."
Yang Chengzu looked at him.
"You, you can't just study, you have to look at the current situation.
Now is not the Spring and Autumn Period, but the Great Tomorrow.
Ning.
The feudal lord is rebelling in Jiangxi.
At this time, he is trying to buy justice with a large sum of money.
Believe it or not, the local officials are going to trick him and say that he has evil intentions. " Yang Chengzu also seemed to be interested, and said to Jiang Dalang: "Studying is a good thing, but studying hard is a bad thing.
It is a good thing to talk about benevolence and righteousness, but it is stupid to talk about benevolence and righteousness regardless of the occasion.
It is useless to be a wise king now.
What is useful is to be a prince who can make money.
The front line is here.
During the war, food was hard currency, and the price of rice kept rising.
Why didn't those farmers pay rent?
Is it because they hoped to sell the food and make a lot of money?
Even if the palace waived their rent, would those farmers benefit?
No, it’s the dealers who benefit in the end.”
"Masters say that you should not compete with the people for profit, but should be considerate of the people.
What does Yang Yizheng think?"
"What they said is correct if you look at it.
But what matters is who they are talking about.
They are not talking about individuals, but they are the people in their eyes.
The people they call are the gentry, They are landlords, decent people with status, status, and dignity.
The real dirtbags are not even human beings in their eyes, so they should not even think about joining the masses. " "Look, is there going to be a war this year?
There will be four foreign armies going south, and there will definitely be more refugees.
According to my experience in Henan, this wave of refugees will be tough enough.
Someone in the city will definitely drive up the price of rice, taking this opportunity to To make a fortune, the palace must have enough rice to ensure that it does not starve.
Otherwise, the palace will suffer great losses.
Whether the food is sold for food or directly opened for relief, it can appease the people.
However, if the food is put on the market for free trade, those refugees will have no choice but to wait to starve to death, and never trust the conscience of the merchants.
The only person who can trust the integrity of the squire is the government.
If the government cannot trust it, the squire will only be worse off."
"What Yizheng said is very different from what I usually hear from Master.
They always tell me to believe in the gentry and these rich people.
Just like these local prominent families, many of them are good people.
When I meet In disaster years, we will also provide relief.
Maybe those village heads are really in trouble."
"Of course there are good people in the local area, but on the one hand, they opened a few porridge restaurants, and on the other hand, they forced more people into desperation, so they had to sell their houses and land.
What is good and what is evil?

It is hard to explain.
There is no need to say it.
Just know, don't trust them.
They may do some good things for the sake of profit, but let's forget about the difficulties. , Everyone has difficulties, such as those tenants, they also have difficulties.
What will happen if they can't pay the rent?
Will the village head say that they don't have to pay the rent, and they will make up for it next year.
Obviously, they won't.
If they can't pay the rent, You have to borrow money, and the interest on the loan is calculated.
If you can't pay the interest, you have to pawn off your wife and sell your son.
These villagers may have difficulties, but it has nothing to do with the palace. " "Then the palace's reputation in the local area should be lost?"
"Of course we need reputation, but we also need benefits."
Yang Chengzu smiled, "So this time it's me who comes out to collect the rent, not the direct descendants of the palace.
I will collect the taxes first, and then the people from the palace will come forward." , let me announce that these bad things were all done by me and were not ordered by the palace, and then announce that some people’s debts will be exempted.
Or I could be beaten with a cane, fined, demoted, etc.
The common people would not know the specific details.
They would only know that the palace is really good and I am a treacherous person.
Even if it gets worse, the profits will not be lost.
Look at how good the business is.
At this time, it is really not a bad thing to have a poor reputation. " "Yizheng, it seems that what you are talking about is not the way of a saint, but the way of power."
"Yes, it's power.
Those teachers will not teach you these things.
Even the prince in the palace may not be able to learn them.
But if you want to be a good prince, you have to learn a hundred words of saints.
A little trickery goes a long way, remember this, it pays off.”
Jiang Dalang's eyes became brighter as he listened to Yang Chengzu's explanation.
"Yizheng, if power is so useful, why don't masters teach it when they teach?
When masters give lectures, they only talk about the learning of saints and enlightenment, but they never do it."
Talk about power.
Is it true that His Royal Highness can learn power?"
"Similarly, the prince is no different from you.
We can only learn from the saints.
Because the masters do not expect you to know the art of politics.
Of course, there are some masters themselves who may not understand the art of power.
There are also people who have ruined their brains by reading. ” "Then you are saying that those words of saints are useless."
"I have never said that.
Of course the words of a saint are useful, but it depends on who is useful to whom.
If you are a saint and I am also a saint, then education, virtue, these things will be useful.
I want reputation, you You also need a reputation.
Everyone has to stick to a certain bottom line when doing things.
At this time, you use that If there are some rules and teachings, I will listen to them.
But there are a few saints in the world.
What most people need to follow is rules, and rules can only be maintained by strength.
What applies to saints is destined to not always be upright.”
"There is no way to have both ends of the world.
It is impossible to want both the palace to be happy and the tenants of the village to be happy.

The teachings of saints cannot solve this problem.
In the end, they can only give in to the palace and sacrifice the tenants. .
Speaking of which, it doesn’t mean that you have defeated the tenants, but that you have subjugated the prince and enriched the village leaders.
This kind of business cannot be called a good thing, it is just a way of doing evil. , this problem can be solved, as long as someone takes the blame.
This is not a bad thing if scholars hope to maintain the study of saints.
If one day, as they say, everyone knows etiquette, understands honor and disgrace, and consciously obeys it.
It would be best to abide by the law, but this is too far and cannot be done at the moment.
What is needed now is to let them understand that they have violated the rules.
If you are not loyal enough to the palace, you will be punished
