Chapter 163 Not necessarily a good person

Xie Xiuwen saw that everyone was silent, and after waiting for a while, a middle-aged man in ordinary cotton clothes stood up.

"In our hometown, it costs three taels of silver to redeem the Yao service, and it ranges from three to five taels of silver to redeem the military service. Let me just say that our hometown is relatively poor, and most of the farmers' surplus money throughout the year is estimated to be only three taels of silver. Four hundred texts."

One has two.

Another young student in ordinary clothes also followed up and said: "In our place, the redemption of Yao service is about five taels of silver, and military service varies, and it may reach ten taels of silver when it is high. In other words, I was born in a land of fish and rice. But that’s the case, the total income of the farmers there throughout the year is only more than five taels of silver, and I’m talking about the situation where there are three or four strong laborers in the family.”

Afterwards, several others stood up. What they said made some students in brocade robes somewhat embarrassed.

This scene is too ironic for them!

In a private room on the second floor, a middle-aged man stroked his beard and said, "I don't know if the people are sick, but they have to put on an appearance of living for the common people, and I don't know why these people have such big faces! "

Opposite is a young son, about fourteen or fifteen years old.

"What the gentleman said is, if you don't know how much money the people need to live a prosperous life, how can you talk about pleading for the people!"

What happened to the merchant?
For the Dazhi Dynasty, the merchants are also the citizens of this land, how can they not know anything, and talk about raising the merchant tax?
Xie Lin nodded slightly, agreeing more with Xie Xiuwen's statement.

"My brothers and sisters have also heard that because of different geographical locations, the relevant redemption is also different. In addition, in some places, the Yaoyao is 20 days, and in some places, the Yaoyao is [-] days. There are differences. The difference. We can't assume that just because the merchants have a business name, they must not be good people, they must have made black-hearted money. Those small merchants and hawkers are busy all year round, but they can barely keep their families wrapped , Where did they offend you all, thinking of adding another yoke to their not-so-rich lives?"

This is extremely serious!

But those present could not refute it.

The definition of business status in the Dazhi dynasty was much better than that of the previous dynasty.

Generally, those who rely on handicrafts to make a living will be designated as work status.

For example, if you open a small restaurant at home, it is not a big business, so you will not be a businessman.

But if you open a big restaurant where you can taste all kinds of dishes from east to west, north, south, and south, then you must belong to the business class.

Also because of the benevolence of the ancestor emperor back then, the Dazhi Dynasty has developed vigorously in the past few decades, and the previous war chaos can no longer be seen.

It's impossible for someone to set up a small stall in the market and give them a business registration, right?

That would be a bit of a bully.

Xie Lin stood up at this time, cupped his hands and said: "Brother Zicheng just said something reasonable. But Brother Yu still has some doubts, so please give me your advice."

Xie Xiuwen returned the courtesy: "I don't dare to give advice, but if Zicheng knows, he must tell the truth."

Schelling's impression of him was even better.

"The difficulties mentioned by Brother Zicheng just now are also some ordinary small merchants, but if they meet the big merchants, there will no longer be such problems. Then the tax increase proposed by the previous brothers One thing seems to be reasonable."

This statement has been recognized by many people. After all, not all traders are poor.

"What the third son said is true. It's just a big merchant, and there is a difference between a benevolent merchant and a profiteer. I don't know about others, but I have also been fortunate to travel with a few classmates to study in several places. Some local big merchants, in times of disaster, They will give out porridge and medicine to the local people for free, and even provide some shelters. If they are waiting for benevolent merchants, is it possible to increase taxes?
If so, wouldn't it chill their hearts?From someone's point of view, they are doing business honestly, as long as they don't owe taxes to the court and don't do anything illegal, what is the difference between them and ordinary people of good nationality? "

Xie Xiu finished his words, and saluted everyone: "What I said just now is just a momentary thought, I'm not speaking for merchants, I just want to say that the world is so big, it's not just what you and I see. People in this world are good or bad, how can it be determined just because they are noble or lowly slaves?"

This topic seems to be sublimated all of a sudden.

The middle-aged man chuckled: "This person is quite interesting."

The young man asked curiously, "Sir, then do you think this student has a way to resolve Father's doubts?"

The man shook his head: "It's hard to say, let's take a look again. Besides, it won't be long before Chun Wei, if he is really capable, he will see the real chapter in the palace examination."

The young man's brows and eyes moved slightly, the master didn't mention the examination, he directly mentioned the palace examination, which shows that he is very optimistic about this person.

Zhao Yue coaxed Xie Rongzhao to drink another cup of Xiaoshi tea, and then asked: "Do you think what your father said just now is right?"

Xie Rongzhao nodded, and said with a matter of course: "Of course my father can't be wrong. It's just like that party member, he likes to be bad, beats people and kills people, and dares to do any bad things. But Uncle Song and Uncle Liu, who are both merchants, are very Good. They may have some flaws, but they don't hide their flaws, and they are good people with benevolent deeds."

Zhao Yue raised his eyebrows: "Just because that Song Yi gave you a birthday gift, so you are a good person?"

Xie Rongzhao glared at him: "Of course not! I have personally seen Uncle Song ask someone to send rice to the temple. If he only donates money to the temple, I don't think he is very kind, but he is willing to take out rice To help those suffering and helpless people, I think this is the real good person."

Zhao Yue found this very interesting.

"Why don't those who donate money to the temple have good intentions?"

Xie Rongzhao curled his lips and looked at him suspiciously: "Are you stupid? The people who go to the temple to add sesame oil money are all paid for themselves or family members. They are asking for the Buddha, not just taking money." To help others, how can we be sure that they must be kind?"

"But these silver coins will eventually be used by the monks to give food to the monks."

"That's not necessarily true! I heard people say that many temples are not clean. Some monks drink alcohol and eat meat. I heard that there are some flower monks. Uncle, what is a flower monk? Does it mean that you wear flowers?"

Zhao Yue suddenly had black lines all over his head!

What kind of words are these, which ignorant person taught Xiao Guaibao indiscriminately?
"Where did you hear that? The little girl is from every family. Don't talk nonsense in the future!"

Xie Rongzhao felt aggrieved, and curled his mouth: "If you don't say it, don't say it, anyway, I think what I just said makes sense. If you don't agree, it means you are narrow-minded, and you don't want to admit that I, a child, understand more than you think." through!"
