Chapter 2502: Newly-Signed People Lose Their Humanity
In the Zheng family's home in Xingyang, Henan Prefecture, the patriarch was motionless holding a newspaper. His family would buy many newspapers at a time.
The people in the hall looked at the clan leader, but no one said anything. The Zheng family raised more than 200 slaves.
There are male servants who work and maidservants who sing and dance.
"What a great Li Yi. The young man who developed new farm tools once praised him.
Go and get the slave's deed. If there is a maid you like, go and ask yourself if she is willing to stay as a concubine.
The male servant also asked if he wanted to be a tenant. Too many people left suddenly and it was difficult to maintain the family. "
After a full two minutes, the patriarch put down the newspaper and calmly ordered...
"Yes!" Other members of the family responded at the same time.
On the other side, Wang Wei was in a 'meeting'. He was wandering alone and looked at the group of people who accompanied him with a sad look on his face.
He stood behind a square table with a stack of exchange coupons placed on it.
"Gangrou suddenly said that they are not allowed to keep slaves overseas. Last night I took your documents and deeds to the Ministry of Household Affairs to exchange money.
If you are willing to leave, take your share of the money and leave.
I have you by my side these days, and I hope you will find a new job and a good family after you go out. "
He told his guards and a group of beauties that he could not resist.
A woman stepped forward, and several women next to her said at the same time: "Xiaoqiao!"
Xiaoqiao didn't respond. She went to the table and picked up her own exchange coupon, and said to Wang Wei coquettishly: "You're such a good man! This money is what I paid to sign the long-term contract."
In the future, the slave will ask you to write poems, and if you don't write well, be careful, the slave will redeem the long contract at any time and ignore you. snort! "
Wang Wei stretched out his hand and took Xiaoqiao, and said, "Sign, if the contract is long, the contract will be long."
"The same goes for the slave family." Another woman hurried over to get the money.
Everyone wanted to sign long-term contracts one after another. They had a lot of money. Wang Wei always rewarded them with money, which was enough for them to redeem themselves.
They didn't leave at all, and now they had an extra piece of money, which was rewarded by the prince.
Wang Wei's family is rich, handsome, and well-educated. They don't do much work on weekdays, they just eat, drink, sing and dance with him.
After they finished making trouble, the nursing staff came over to sign the long-term contract.
They are equally relaxed. What kind of job can they find after going out? I'm used to this life.
Some were even arranged by Wang Wei to marry maidservants. Now the children were free, and the children born between slaves were also slaves.
The difference is that some slaves' children have to work since childhood, and their children learn from Wang Wei.
Now when he saw that he could get out of slavery, he was naturally happy. After signing a long-term contract and receiving wages, Wang Wei was willing to reward him and he could also get an extra share.
When I get old and can’t work anymore, I will take the money and look for a place to live with my children.
Wang Bo, who also became an official, was like Wang Wei. He asked someone if he wanted to leave. If you leave, you will be paid breakup allowance.
He is usually very loyal and has good literary talent, so many of his people stayed.
Li Jia Zhuangzi's slaves are one, two, three, four, five, etc., cry, don't change, just take the slave status.
Bi Gou, Yao Chong and other ministers advised that it would not work if we did not get rid of our slave status. It was your proprietor who took the lead in the matter. Others had already changed. How could the Li Family Manor not change?
Don't cry! Anyway, you will always live in Zhuangzi from now on and think about your boss.
After a long discussion, the slave reluctantly agreed.
If they want to deregister, they can do so a hundred times with the money they get. The same goes for the proprietor, so why can't they rely on their status to keep themselves and others' slave status?
The original southwest barbarian, the imperial court used to change his membership, but did not give Li Yi money. It was too much and he was reluctant to give it, so he stopped giving it.
The southwestern barbarians looked at each other, what do you mean? Want to drive us away? where are we going?
"Did we do something wrong?" A southwestern barbarian asked the person who was changed by the government.
"Have you read the newspaper? Here, the newspaper, read it yourself." The yamen officer pushed a newspaper over to him.
"No, I got up early to work and didn't have time to read it. What was written? Oh! Did you give the owner money? If you don't give it, we won't agree. The fingerprints won't be pressed."
The man took a look, understood, and then thought of the interests of his owner.
"It's given, it's given." How does the yamen officer know whether he has been given or not? Will the court tell him when doing business?
"Okay! Where are the fingerprints? If you want me to tell you, take off your pants and fart, and you won't have to worry about it twice."
"Your proprietor said so, and then the court followed the request."
"How can I say that the proprietor is wise? He is happy after being freed from his slave status and can work better."
Yamen: "..."
The entire Tang Dynasty was the first to react in Jingzhao Mansion and Henan Mansion. There were many slaves who did not want to leave the master's house.
But more than four-fifths of the slaves ran away happily, looking for jobs in the yamen, and it was really not possible to train them first.
Less than one-fifth of the remaining ones, some of them have not thought about it for the time being. The host family has given them a new 'contract' and they are temporarily living in the host's home.
Some really don't want to leave. In the past, the host family treated them well and paid for medical treatment when they were sick. If the host family ate meat, they would eat their meat.
They buy new clothes during the New Year, send their children to school, and keep the money they earn from studying.
Some children have good grades and are given extra rewards by their parents.
There is even a slave who has reached the position of steward. How could he leave?
Can he still be in charge if he goes to another place? Have so many people under you?
A little further away, I got a newspaper printed on wax paper and tried to negotiate with acquaintances in the government office to try to sell the slaves, but UU Reading www.uukkanshu.net was rejected.
Which official dares to go against the wind? Every year, several inspection teams from different forces come to conduct overt and covert investigations.
Every year, officials who think nothing is wrong are punished, and they are content to stay in their positions alive, and they will have more salaries in the future.
Among colleagues, those who are too old to work, once they retire, the minimum is 200 strings of cash, and then 80% of their original salary is paid every month.
The arrested officials’ homes are confiscated! The children of their families are not allowed to enter the officialdom for five generations.
Once arrested, some committed suicide, and some fell seriously ill and died soon.
When they see the people who are inspected openly, they know each other and want to use their connections. If they can’t get through, it’s okay. If they get through, the whole group of inspectors will be punished.
Those who owe the other party a favor will repay the favor with death.
Therefore, local officials are becoming more and more timid, and there are always people who cannot be bribed, such as the secret inspection team of Lijiazhuangzi.
What is even more hateful is that colleagues report you. If a colleague in the same job position is questioned by the patrolman, and you don't tell them, and someone is investigated later, you will be investigated as well. This is a relatively light punishment. Your family will not be confiscated, but your three generations of descendants will not be allowed to enter the officialdom.
Will your colleagues betray their descendants for you?
The governors who have been entrenched in the local area for a long time have many slaves at home. At this moment, they are also setting an example. It is useless to control military power.
They are all assigned telescopes and water-linked rifles, just one, for hunting.
It seems that the court cares about you. From another perspective, the court tells you that it is better to be stable. If you dare to make trouble, you will be dealt with by Yulin Flying Cavalry with more powerful weapons.
It is written in the newspaper, with pictures, water-linked and automatic rifles.
Feel the power of water-linked, and you will understand the combat effectiveness of the central army.
