The arrival of the old monkey made Yunchu deeply feel the malice caused by the status gap.
This malice was brought to him by Tang Dynasty and also by Chang'an.
The old monkey only needs to be led by Guiji to get through without any obstacles, and then get a rich, prosperous and gorgeous Chang'an.
As for everything that the old monkey could enjoy, Yunchu never had the opportunity to see it, even if he used a carriage to pull two thousand taels of gold.
This is a critical moment that tests people's character.
This critical moment is basically the same as the moment when Xiang Yu saw the Qin Emperor's chariot and Liu Bang saw the Qin Emperor's chariot.
Xiang Yu said: He can replace him.
Liu Bang said: This is what a real man should do.
Yun Chu said: This is nothing, it is a trivial matter. It cannot change his mood, let alone make him feel frustrated.
Since I can be sent to the Tang Dynasty alone by the world, then I should struggle alone. The results obtained in this way are true and sweet.
Three days after the Yunchu family settled in Jinchangfang, Mrs. Cui took her family servants and a dozen women invited to help, and made a large number of steamed cakes at home.
These steamed cakes are all made of wheat flour, and there is not much bran in them. This is just because the wheat flour produced by stone grinding is not as white as Yunchu expected.
However, after each steamed cake is garnished with a red date, the steamed cake turns into a jujube steamed bun, which looks very high-end.
Jinchangfang is very large, but Daci'en Temple occupies 40% of the land. Therefore, the city, which should have been home to tens of thousands of people, has an actual population of only more than 5,000 people and a total of more than 800 households.
Every family has a large population, and it is not uncommon for three, four, or even five generations to live under one roof.
As a new arrival, Yun Chu planned to give two jujube steamed buns to every household in Fang City as a first-time gift.
Under the leadership of Fang Zheng, Yun Chu took Naha, Cui, and Ba Fei after the closure of Fang City. It took them six full evenings to visit more than 800 households one by one.
As Fangzheng Liu Yi said, most of the people living in Jinchangfang are poor families, and there are basically no wealthy families.
However, the appearance of Yunchu's family, especially after giving away nearly two thousand white flour steamed cakes in one go, can barely be considered a wealthy family in Jinchangfang.
The household registration of the Tang Dynasty people is very unreasonable. The situation of each household is clearly marked on it, and even the family wealth is reflected on the household registration.
Despite the fact that there are more than 800 households living in Jinchangfang, there are no more than 200 households that are actually settled in Chang'an, and the remaining 600 or so households are guests living in Chang'an.
Only those who have a household registration can have Yongye fields, and the land is divided into fields outside the city. Without a household registration, they don't have these, and they can only be counted as refugees. Even though they have houses and work in Chang'an, they are still refugees.
In the Tang Dynasty, a wealthy family was the natural leader of a group of poor families around them. When the government could not take care of it, the wealthy family was needed to organize the surrounding people to fight disasters or fight against the enemy.
Yunchu proved his family's wealth with more than two thousand steamed cakes, so Liu Yi naturally and happily handed over the position of head of the village that originally belonged to him.
Yun Chu looked at the old man with a sigh of relief as the green slap marks on his face had not yet faded.
This is a very honest person, and he is also a person who sticks to his duty, but he is a little behind in terms of talent.
Sunhu Cao of Wannian County did evil things to Liu Yi just because he did not receive filial piety from Jinchangfang.
If a junior official from the eighth rank in the Tang Dynasty wants to live comfortably in Chang'an, without these extra filial piety, he is likely to starve to death. After all, the monthly salary of a junior official from the eighth rank in the Tang Dynasty is only five pecks of rice.
I'll give you seven hundred, and if you don't have any money, I'll give you ten pounds of salt.
Of course, officials in the capital still have some income from their official fields. According to the court rules, an eighth-rank official like Yun Chu can still get fifty dan of official fields every year. It is a pity, because all the official fields near the capital belong to the royal family, and senior officials
The official fields of minor officials like us, Yun Chu, and Sun Hu Cao were generally three hundred miles away, and their harvests failed every year.
Therefore, when faced with no income, it was natural for Sun Hu Cao to slap Liu Yi in the mouth.
I heard that Liu Yi would get slapped in the mouth every year instead of paying filial piety. In other words, Liu Yi would rather get slapped in the mouth than get money from the people in a clever name.
After Yunchu's family became the largest wealthy family in Jinchangfang, Yunchu naturally became the head of Guangmingli.
It can be seen that Liu Yi was granted amnesty...
After becoming the head of Guangmingli, Yunchu immediately occupied two uninhabited houses. After cleaning them up a little, he ordered everyone in Guangmingli to take a bath every three days.
One copper coin is charged for a bath. If you don't have money to bathe in a specially set up bathhouse, you must bathe yourself at home. Anyway, there can't be an unkempt person in Jinchangfang.
After the order from Chief Yunchu was issued, the entire Guangming community was in an uproar. Countless people gathered at the door of Yunchu's house and cursed loudly, demanding that Yunchu, a corrupt official, give them an explanation.
When Yunchu, wearing mountain armor, holding a spear, carrying a Tang sword at his waist, carrying six short spears on his back and riding a similarly armored bay-red horse, appeared at the door of his house with a murderous look, the curses and noises immediately subsided.
.
Yun Chu, who has been practicing martial arts since he was a child and is now fourteen years old, is now over 1.7 meters tall. He is riding on the back of a tall and divine horse. The fierce and fierce aura cultivated on the battlefield makes these companies the governor of the mansion without saying a word.
The people of Jinchangfang, who were not qualified to serve as soldiers, remained silent.
Yun Chu reached out and inserted the spear into the ground, pulled out the short spear from his back, and threw it out in succession like lightning. The short spear was so powerful and heavy that it almost grazed the cheeks of several of the fiercest men who were shouting and was nailed to the opposite wall.
superior.
Chang'an City has not experienced war for decades. How could these people withstand Yun Chu's intimidation? The timid ones had their legs weak and knelt at the door of Yun's house.
Yun Chu urged the bay-red horse, and the bay-red horse with its horseshoes clattered on the stone road. Wherever the bay-red horse went, the crowd dispersed.
Naha lay on the wall of Yun's house and threw a baseball bat made of wax wood. Yun Chu caught it with his hand, gave up the spear, and brandished the stick to attack the people who had turned around and fled.
The baseball bat made a terrifying "whooshing" sound in mid-air, and the people who came to look for trouble rushed away with their heads in their hands. Yun Chu chased him in the alley on his horse. He didn't return until no one could be seen in the alley.
Go to Yun's house to dismount and take off your armor.
There is no way for one person to reason with hundreds of people.
How could Yun Chu not understand this? At the same time, he also believed that under the strict laws of the Tang Dynasty, these people should be more unwilling to conflict with government organizations than those in later generations, especially officials like Yun Chu.
Violence is the original source of power. Yunchu was also very fortunate that the government agencies in the Tang Dynasty were violent enough.
When the door-opening drum sounded the next day, Yun Chu stood by the square gate with a baseball bat in his hand, watching Fang Zheng and Liu Yi open the square gate.
Yun Chu wanted to catch some unhygienic villagers as role models, but he didn't expect to find even one unkempt and disheveled guy.
They had no choice but to look at the residents angrily, and proudly left Jinchangfang in front of him to go to work. Some people even deliberately pulled up their sleeves in front of Yun Chu to let him inspect their blackened arms that had finally been cleaned.
Liu Yi said to Yun Chu with some sadness: "Chief, there is nothing we can do. These people would rather bathe at home than go to our bathhouse.
If the mayor wants to make money, he has to find another way."
Yun Chu sneered and said: "They are too young to escape from my hands. In three days, we will not only check the unkempt people, but also enter their homes to check whether their homes are clean. If I find out that their homes are clean,
If there are fleas, lice, termites, mice and the like, they will be severely punished, and after the severe punishment is completed, they will also be fined."
Liu Yi looked worriedly at the furious new mayor and warned: "These people's homes have been dirty for decades, and it is too difficult to clean them out all at once.
Maybe they will go to the county government to file a complaint."
Yun Chu sneered and said, "Liu Yi, do you know why you have to be slapped by Sun Hucao every year?"
Liu Yi spread his hands and said, "I don't have money to be filial."
Yun Chu smiled and said: "The main reason is that there is nothing wrong with Jinchangfang under your jurisdiction, and Sunhu Cao and others have no chance to interfere in Jinchangfang's affairs to make money. This is why people hate you."
Liu Yi suddenly raised his head and looked at Yun Chu and said: "What the mayor means is that if those people go to the county government..."
Yunchu laughed and said: "Do you think the county government will help these people punish me, a person who works for the county government?
You have to remember that I am also an official after all."
After Yunchu finished speaking, he found that there were people in shabby clothes within his sight, but not even an unkempt person could be seen, so he dragged his baseball bat back home in frustration.
Liu Yi quickly stopped a few reckless people who were spitting at Yunchu's back, and whispered: "Don't dare let him see it, this guy is just a murderer who came down from the battlefield!
I heard that in the city of Qiuci in the Western Region, they were forced to fight their way out of thousands of Turkic troops. The whole body was killed like a bloody gourd, and the number of arrows taken from the armor alone exceeded 20.
Since he wants to make money, we don't give him a chance; just make money. He wants us to be neatly dressed and clean, so we should take baths at home more often and wash clothes more frequently. If he wants us to keep our house tidy, we should keep our house tidy.
, just don’t give him a chance to get angry.
You have also seen that today, everyone is clean, so he has no chance to make money. Could it be that he wants to come to the house and shoot?
I’m sorry he doesn’t dare!”
Everyone nodded repeatedly, indicating that Liu Yi was a good person who was devoted to them.
After Yunchu returned home, Mrs. Cui immediately served the breakfast. After Yunchu washed his hands, he happily drank porridge and ate pickled buns.
Mrs. Cui waited until Yunchu was full, then whispered: "Is it okay for Mr. Lang to cause public anger like this?"
Yunchu said with a smile: "You underestimate the endurance of the people. As long as you don't rob their property, seize their wives and daughters, leave them a way to live, and give them some sweet things, believe me, they will like me in the future."
