Chapter five hundred and forty-eight, the young master also admits punishment
Wealth and honor do not return home, just like walking in brocade at night.
In the past, Jia Liu didn't feel too deeply about this sentence.
But when he stood at the front gate again after three years, his inner emotions suddenly exploded.
I finally realized what this meant.
When you are rich, if you don't come to meet your old sweetheart, your first love, your friends, or show off in front of the old madam who bullied you when you were young and poor, you'd be better off being underdeveloped!
Scenes from his youth played in Jia Liu's mind frame by frame like movie scenes.
Da Yuer, Xiao Taohong, Sixi, Da Niuer...
The quiet front door, the pure recipe, and the familiar taste make people yearn to find out.
Taking a deep breath of air, Jia Liu was sure that it was the smell, and concluded that the peaceful alleys in front of him actually lurked murderous intent.
I don’t know how many men are fighting naked, and I don’t know how many daughters are secluding the enemy...
The fighting was so fierce that the air was filled with the smell of heather.
call!
After taking a long breath, Jia Liu's face became a little more solemn.
He originally didn't want to care about this matter, but Shuan Zhu was right. It seemed unreasonable to ignore it now that he had met it.
After all, he has been walking around the world for so many years and has always done good deeds. He has never done anything unconscionable, let alone bullied a common person.

If anyone in the Qing Dynasty was dedicated to serving the country and the people, who else could he be but Jia Jia'e, the son-in-law?
In reality, Monk Wang's purchase of female dolls from victims of the disaster at low prices was a shocking thing for future generations, but in the Qing Dynasty, it was a common thing.
Even if he resells the female dolls into alleys, it may not be a bad thing for these female dolls and their families.
Is it better than starving to death?
In the face of survival, there is no morality at all.
You may think that the female doll being sold into the alley is an inhumane experience, but you may think that the female doll being thrown into the soup pot is a blessing.
Selling a girl makes a living for the whole family.
If you don't sell it, your whole family will die.
How do you choose to be a parent?
How many parents in this world are willing to separate their flesh and blood, and are willing to let their daughters become other people’s playthings from now on?
Thousands of words can be put down on paper, but just three words: "people suffer".
The tragedy of the times.
Jia Liu personally put down the Qingshui Rebellion, and he had more say than anyone else about this religious rebellion and the situation in Shandong.
The situation in Shandong has been very bad in recent years. Wang Lun was able to successfully launch the uprising because victims were everywhere in Shandong, and everyone wanted a way to survive.
Where is the anti-Qing movement?
It's purely about survival.
Of course, another main reason for the serious disaster in Shandong is the corruption of Shandong's officialdom.
The governor of Shandong, Cathay, was a famous corrupt official during the Qianlong Dynasty. Under his leadership, how many officials in Shandong officialdom could truly serve the people?
However, this Cathay can now be said to be Jia Liu's ally.
It's not that Jia Liu insisted on colluding with this dog official, but that he needed this kind of dog official.
Dog officials usually have no bottom line.
With the benefits in place, it is not impossible for him to sell the Qing Dynasty.
"Everyone is here?"
Jia Liu, who was dressed in plain clothes, turned around and looked at the generals who rushed behind him and waved his hand: "The left wing is responsible for Baishun Hutong, Yanzhi Hutong, Hanjia Hutong, and Shaanxixiang Hutong; the right wing is responsible for Shitou Hutong, Guangfu Hutong, and Zhuang Hutong.
Home Hutong, Li Shamao Hutong. The Chinese Army is responsible for the area outside the Hutong. From now on, no one is allowed to go out or enter!"
"嗻!"
The generals of the protective army were in high spirits, and the officers and soldiers participating in the operation were also in high spirits. There was no need for the President to mobilize before the war.
If you can't even deal with the prostitutes and turtle slaves, you might as well go home and farm.
Jia Liu was very satisfied with the response of the guards and did not forget to tell the generals leading the team: "Remember, quietly, no gunmen, deploy on the periphery first, don't alert the snake, this sweep... This operation is our mission during the national mourning of the Queen Mother."
The infantry commander's Yamen's thunderous action against the security of the capital must be justified, well-founded and restrained, and the people and the court must not think that our infantry commander's Yamen acted indiscriminately."
"嗻!"
The generals roared in response again.
Soon, groups of escort officers and soldiers were like black dragons, wandering several square kilometers away from the front door, quietly surrounding the most luxurious entertainment venue in the Qing Empire.
Jia Liu stared at it for a while, then suddenly turned around and asked Shuan Zhu: "Is the ticket ready?"
"Master, everything is ready. Do you think this is okay?"
Shuan Zhu grabbed a bunch of tickets from the basket and asked the young master to take a look.
Jia Liu looked at it. Some of the fines said a fine of one thousand taels of silver, stamped with the seal of the nine admirals. Some of them said a fine of one hundred taels of silver, and there were also fifty taels, ten taels, and the minimum was even ten taels.
arts.
The same ticket, the same crime, but the amount of the fine is vastly different.
The reason is that this time the law enforcement also needs to be treated differently.
Because the front door is also divided into grades.
Those who can enter the alleys are rich people and dignitaries. Of course, these people must be punished more to make them realize their wrong behavior and ensure that they can stay home with their wives and children during the next national mourning period instead of spending all day.
They run to immoral places.
But outside the alleys, Dashilan doesn't have much class. There are hundreds of large and small buildings and courtyards, all of which cater to ordinary working-class people.
Isn't it a joke if you issue a fine of 1,000 taels to the working-class people? Selling his whole family is not worth the amount.
Therefore, you have to place targeted orders.
Is it okay to fine you ten cents or twenty cents?
After all, this action is just to clean up the social atmosphere during the national mourning period. Fines are not the purpose, but education.
The purpose is to fine.
Jia Liu was basically satisfied with the style of the ticket, so he threw the ticket back into the basket and told Shuan Zhu worriedly: "It doesn't matter who you are later, whether it's an official or a citizen, if you want to come out, you have to accept the penalty, pay the money with one hand, and let the person go with the other."
...You ask the detective team to keep an eye on me and not engage in any malpractice for personal gain, even if you report anyone’s name.”
This is a precautionary measure. After all, some of the officers and soldiers in the escort are former patrol battalions.
This patrol camp is a local gangster at the front door. There is no guarantee that some people will not let him go privately out of sympathy, or engage in extortion without permission, ruining Mr. Jia's reputation.
"Master, are you really going to punish them all and not let anyone go?"
When Shuan Zhu came, he went to look for the master, but found that he was not there, so he was worried that the master might be in the alley.
It would be bad if the flood washed away the Dragon King Temple.
"If we can't enforce the law impartially, what's the use of us people!"
Jia Liu's attitude was firm, "Even if my father is caught, he will be punished!"
Shuan Zhu said "Huh?" and then asked a question: "Master, what if they don't have the money to fine?"
"No money?"
Jia Liu allowed no room for doubt, "If it's a citizen, let their family redeem it. If it's an official, add up the list and report it to the Metropolitan Procuratorate tomorrow."
"oh."
Now that the young master has made up his mind, Shuan Zhu doesn't have much to say, so he goes to arrange the work of the detective team.
The young master suddenly grabbed him, coughed slightly, and then took out a fifty-cent fine note from the basket and held it in his hand.
"The emperor breaks the law and is guilty of the same crime as the common people. The young master is guilty of knowing the law and breaking the law, and the crime is increased by one level, so he is fined an additional forty cents."
While he was talking, he took out a few Qianlong coins worth ten coins from his arms and threw them into the empty basket used to collect fines.
After the copper coin fell into the basket, Jia Liu put the ticket in his pocket and walked into the alley with his hands behind his back.
