"Hey, this is helpless.
You don't even think about it.
What kind of place is this?
When you didn't come, I was here to supervise everything.
To tell you the truth, human life here is not valuable.
You can exchange a sack of grain for two and you don't have to bargain.
I thought, if they kill the official, they won't find a scapegoat to take the initiative to go to the Yamen to explain, not to mention those chiefs.
Do you think there is no one who dares to take action in order to eat and survive?
Not only do they dare to do it, but if I hadn’t been an upright official, my head might have been hanging at the yamen door the day after I came to Sinan.
One night, in my house There is a dagger stuck on the bedside.
What do you think it is?
It is a warning."
Yang Ming never thought that the Sinan people were not as cowardly as he thought.
On the contrary, they were using their own way to defend this land and their own lives.
Perhaps, this method is very crude and can easily arouse the anger of the current rulers and cause them a devastating blow, but there is no doubt that this method is very direct and very practical.
He couldn't help but think of a poem, "The grass grows taller and brighter every year."
The wildfire never burns out, but the spring breeze blows and rekindles it Aren’t these people’s lives just like weeds?
remaining in this world They use their worthless lives to tenaciously multiply on this land.
"What do you think?"
Yang Ming's heart was touched.
What he cared about was not that Liu Yi was warned.
On the contrary, even if Liu Yi died, it would not be a burden to him at all.
What he cared more about was whether these people Always hiding behind the scenes Liu Yi smiled, looked at the other side of Qingshan, and said: "Yang Ming, believe it or not, there may be at least five people around us looking at us right now.
Of course, these people may be from the White Lotus Sect.
Yes.
Maybe they are the people who protect us, or maybe they are the others.
I am not afraid of these people at all.
You know, I have been an official for thirteen years.
Not received” After speaking, Liu Yi took out a piece of silver from his sleeve pocket.
Passed it to Yang Ming.
After taking the silver, Yang Ming looked at it carefully.
Like ordinary silver ingots, this ingot of silver is one ingot of ten taels of silver.
However, the difference is that the color of this ingot of silver is slightly black.
Perhaps it has been left for too long and the surface of the silver has been covered with silver rust.
Liu Yi must have looked through it when he got it, so he could clearly see some traces of friction on it.
"They gave it to you."
Yang Ming was a little curious.
Ten taels of silver was a lot of money even for some middle-class people, and those people obviously didn't live a very good life.
But it happened that Liu Yi was given such a piece of silver instead of himself.
"Yes, this ingot of silver appeared on the desk in my room on the second day.
At the same time, they took away something from me," Liu Yi said slowly.
"what" "That's an undershirt that my wife made for me.
I'm not afraid of making fun of you.
I've worn that undershirt for eight years.
It's covered in patches and weighs half a kilogram."

He laughed and looked at it.
Holding the silver in Yang Ming's hand, he said: "That underwear is my treasure.
It can be used as an outer coat in spring and autumn.
In winter, it becomes a cotton-padded jacket, hahaha."
Liu Yi smiled bitterly, and her thoughts suddenly went away.
Yang Ming felt a little uncomfortable when he heard this.
An undershirt has been worn for eight years.
An underwear that can be used as a cotton-padded jacket.
What kind of concept is this?
I want to ask how many officials in the entire Ming Dynasty can be truly as pure as water.
He can't help but think that those people may have seen it.
That undershirt truly identifies Liu Yi.
Maybe in their perception, as long as the officials are not corrupt, they will be very lucky.
Maybe they are still poor, but at least they still have a way to survive.
Yes.
Their request is very simple.
All they need is not to oppress or exploit them.
That’s all.
It was obvious that Liu Yi valued that undershirt, otherwise it would not have been possible for him to wear it for eight years, when he thought of this.
Yang Ming began to recall some of the rumors he heard about Liu Yi when he was in the capital.
It is said that he is a very old-fashioned official.
He is upright and always does things according to the guidelines.
The most rare thing is that he has only returned to his hometown in Gansu once in more than ten years as an official.
Because he never accepted bribes, he has no money to bring back.
The place is a private house next to the west gate of the capital.
The rent is 800 yuan a month for him alone.
Even the sedan that goes out is from the neighborhood.
"It's far away."
Liu Yi laughed, turned back from his thoughts and said to Yang Ming: "Yang Ming, to tell you the truth, I am also a son of a farmer.
I remember when I was young, my father and I passed by the private school and looked at the children inside.
After I learned how to read, I really longed to go home.
My father gave up drinking.
Hehe, he is an alcoholic.
He gave up drinking for me, and then went to work as a long-term worker for Wang Laocai in the village.
During the Chinese New Year, it was freezing cold for 49 days.
Our family drank wild vegetable porridge for two years and three months.
He used the family's frugality to The money I earned helped me go to private school, and it was at that time that I understood what it means to have your head in the sky and your feet on the ground."
"So you just want to be an upright official and plead for the people?"
Yang Ming looked at Liu Yi and asked, "Have you never thought about what they are like now?
You went home once in thirteen years, and your mother, your You don’t care about your old wife and your son.”
Yang Ming looked at Liu Yi deeply with his eyes and continued: Don't mention money to me.
Even if you have been a seventh-grade official, although your salary is a bit low, it won't be enough for you to save money for your relatives.
None of them.”
"You think everyone looks like you and you don't know where you learned your skills.
Do you know that when I was in the capital, I initially thought you were from some aristocratic family.

You had nothing to do with Yang Chunshui and only read Even if you know about the things you did in Shu, I don't believe it."
Liu Yi sighed, and then looked at Jiang Yang.
Ming said: "So when you made bold statements in the temple, I didn't even care.
Until the civil and military officials of the whole dynasty seemed to trust you, especially His Majesty, who relied on you in every possible way and granted you the title of Yang Family."
It was only when I was married that I felt that you might not be that simple, so after I came down, I used all my connections to check your information."
"After this investigation, I couldn't sleep that night.
I thought about it all night long.
I thought about whether I could make a bowl of batter benefit the entire people of Hongcheng and make those big-headed soldiers clean and honest.
I thought about coal, inn, and Laowengshan in Sichuan.
I'm really confused about what kind of person you are.
Just like me, I'm also from a farmer's background.
I never thought you were so far away, especially how well you grasp people's hearts."
Liu Yi's eyes suddenly became profound. s: The first update is sent to:
