Qiming 1158

Chapter 1563 When did these scumbags have spare money?
In the past, most of the resources of the brothel in Xiangyang City came from these surrounding villages.

These prostitutes have secret connections with some landlords and gentry in the surrounding farms.

Under normal circumstances, the brothel would not be short of resources, and the officials and clerks would naturally act as the natural helpers of the prostitute. In order to make money, the prostitute "helped" the prostitute to bring many farmhouses into ruin, and the prostitute could use a considerable amount of money. Access resources at low cost.

But in case something goes wrong, and occasionally there are some great masters in Qingtian who have no clear conscience, they will take the initiative to restrain the behavior of officials and officials, and stop engaging in peasants, and the brothel will be short of resources in those few years.

When the prostitutes lack resources, they will take the initiative to attack and cooperate with the local landlords and gentry to run on the farms belonging to the favored "high-quality resources" and go bankrupt, thus forcing the good to become prostitutes.

After obtaining the "resources", the brothel will give some favors to the landlords and gentry who assist them, and the landlords and gentry can also obtain some land, everyone can get what they need, and it is a win-win situation.

In this process, the only thing that can save the peasants is the government.

But unfortunately, for most of the past history, the government's duty was not to save the peasants, but to play the most vicious role in persecuting the peasants, and the landlords and brothels had to call out "Master" in front of them.

Even if there is an occasional one or two Great Masters of Qingtian who persecute the peasants with less ferocity, they will not take the initiative to save the peasants.

The Qingtian gentlemen generally do not have a bad relationship with these landlords and gentry. Locally, they are the tyrannical gentry of the running county officials. Although the Qingtian gentlemen are not used to what they do, the things they can do are very limited. .

The Qingtian gentlemen generally serve three or four years in office, and there is no need to stiffen their relationship with the place for a group of muddy legs who have nothing to do with them during these three or four years of office.

To maintain a better relationship, the local government can also take the initiative to cooperate with the Qingtian gentlemen to engage in water conservancy projects as political achievements, spread their fame, and so on.

When Master Qingtian leaves office, they can still buy a group of sailors who pretend they can't bear to pull his car and keep him from leaving, and give Master Qingtian a practice gift.

In this way, the tenure of the Qingtian Grand Master is complete, and he is waiting for promotion.

What is Han Window studying hard for?
Is it to do justice to the mud legs?
Therefore, for the sake of the future, the Master Qingtian, who has good personal morals, can only turn a blind eye. As long as he does not go too far and everyone knows it, the Master Qingtian will be nothing. happened before.

It is very normal for one or two farm families to go bankrupt, and it is also normal for one or two farm families to die.

Everyone maintained a subtle tacit understanding.

After waiting for three years or four years, Mr. Qingtian patted his butt and left, everything was business as usual, everyone continued to bully the farmers, hello, hello, everyone.

The only officials who really asked for the people's orders to protect the mud legs were Hai Rui.

How did Haibijia ask for life for the people?
When he was in office somewhere, the rich and powerful were frightened by the news, and they all fled when they cursed.

Comparing the two, they stand tall.

But eight years after Hongwu, times have changed.

The Ming Dynasty intervened strongly in the south of the Yangtze River, and launched a land revolution in the Xiangyang area for the first time.

The revival members waved their flags and shouted to take the lead in the charge.

For the tyrannical gentry, this is not the master of the sky, this is the living ancestor.

After the tyrannical gentry were hanged, the Renaissance organized a series of villages to end the old mode of production, established collective farms, started a collective economy, and the agricultural production situation was very good.

Because the living conditions of the people are improving day by day, and the legal system of the Ming Dynasty on population is very strict, it is strictly forbidden to buy and sell people, and it has invested heavily in cracking down on illegal industries, so many illegal industries have withered and gone bankrupt and become unsustainable.

At first, many brothels found that the high-ranking gentlemen had been killed, and it was difficult to survive by continuing to sell at high prices, so they sold at lower prices, but they also welcomed a group of new customers, and sighed.

But soon, the prostitutes discovered the seriousness of the problem-their brothel had no fresh blood to replenish.

The original girls in the brothel are getting old day by day, losing their competitiveness and attractiveness in the industry day by day. The brothel urgently needs fresh blood to enhance its strength.

But there really is no one who sells their daughters or sells themselves.

The brothel industry practitioners went out to investigate and were surprised to find that the poor peasants who used to be trousers in the past had become rich and able to eat, which made them feel astonished.

When did these scumbags have any money left?
Whose bodhisattva is so kind-hearted, how can this group of people have spare money?
After further investigation, they discovered that the farmers outside the city were some collective farms that every household had joined.

Collectively cultivate the land, take turns to go out to work, and earn two incomes alone.

They repair water conservancy, roads, city walls, and houses for the government. They do hard work and earn hard-earned money. They are very tired, but not to mention, they make a lot of money.

At the same time, handicraft workshops have also been established outside the city of Xiangyang, the scale of which is far beyond their imagination.

Many workers do not rely on land, but only work in the factory to earn wages. They also rely on the factory to eat and earn money. They buy houses and furniture in the city. A small family of three, four and five lives really comfortably.

They are rich, and the business in the brothel has actually ushered in a wave of small outbreaks for a period of time, and the number of customers has increased a lot, which is quite happy for the prostitutes.

But the prostitutes are well aware that this is not sustainable.

If the brothel wants to survive, it must have the injection of fresh blood, and it must continue to have the injection of fresh blood, and constantly hold up the courtesans belonging to a certain period as the facade signs, attracting a lot of money.

Otherwise, the guests will get bored sooner or later.

However, their original collaborators were all killed by the Ming government, and the grass on the tomb was more than three meters high, and the original most efficient method failed.

Ming government officials never ran on farmers for bankruptcy.

This……

They really can't imagine why the government really gives benefits to the mud-legged people to make their lives better. It's really strange!

The peasants have money in their hands, and the motivation to sell their daughters is gone. They can't force them, and they can't wait to volunteer. In desperation, they can only persuade them in person, trying to tempt the peasants to sell their beautiful daughters at high prices. drop to them.

As a result, the peasants who had cooperated with him treated the prostitute with indifference and did not see him behind closed doors.

The uncooperative peasants turned pale when they heard the identity of the bustard and the purpose of his visit. When he picked up the guy, he beat him in the face, and then escorted the bustard to the office of the Collective Farm Revival Association.

The cabinet door collective farm revival association learned about this matter, and attached great importance to it from top to bottom, and handed over the old bustard to the Xiangyang Prefecture Judicial Branch.

According to the Ming Law, the Judiciary Bureau sentenced the old bustard, banned this brothel, and strictly controlled the brothels in Xiangyang. When Hongwu tried to ban brothels in 11, Xiangyang was included in the first batch of pilot projects. In the list of cities, brothels are completely banned.

By the time Su Yonglin went south to Shandong in the 12th year of Hongwu, there were no brothels in the entire Xiangyang Prefecture.

The government and revival organizations encourage the public to expose the existence of any brothel-related industries. Once verified, they will be rewarded generously.

In the six cities, the original brothel practitioners were all arrested. According to the Ming Law, those who were convicted and those who were admitted to the special training class for reform through labor would go to special training.

The results obtained are also quite good, which fully proves the effectiveness of the [inquiry-transformation-new life] model.

Therefore, during this period, even if the Ming government forcibly banned brothels across the country, it would not cause much disturbance among the people.

In fact, everyone has acquiesced in the final outcome of the brothel in their hearts.

Su Yonglin decided to officially announce the banning of brothels across the country after he went back.

From then on, the law of the Ming Dynasty will explicitly prohibit the reopening of brothels, completely banning this social cancer that has continued since the Spring and Autumn Period, and completely breaking it into the abyss of illegality for the first time in the legal sense.
