The leisurely life of rebirth

Chapter 237 The First Archives of Ming Dynasty

In the next few days, I will see more in this ancient capital of the Six Dynasties.

Accept the influence of culture.

Everywhere, there is a deposit of history and culture, talents, beauties, princes, generals, and ordinary people.

The first stop of the tour is to Xuanwu Lake.

Mainly influenced by the book "Ming Dynasty under the Microscope".

It turns out who likes to read history books? Everyone is reading about the latest technology, and young people all want to look to the future.

Looking back, that was an old man’s thing.

It wasn't until Zhou You was severely beaten by society that he began to look for answers in history.

History has always been hidden in the words of princes, generals and ministers. Zhou You originally thought that the ancients were ignorant and modern people were very smart.

In fact, the only difference between us is technology.
In fact, the ancients had various management systems and management methods just like us.

The book Ming Dynasty under the Microscope takes small historical events as a starting point, analyzes them layer by layer, and sort them out step by step, revealing the historical system and how to implement it. There are inferences and facts in the middle, but no matter what, it is fascinating. You can learn about ancient governance methods.

After watching Zhou You, I just felt creepy.

The people at the bottom have really just lived since ancient times. Those without talent, ability, or connections are really miserable. Human life is really just a number, and sometimes it doesn’t even count!

As an ordinary person, courage, concerns, family, and life all have to be considered, and he is domesticated into a cow and horse step by step.

When you reflect your own injustice and get feedback from the ruling class.

There is only one situation: the ruler needs what you reflect to realize his own intentions!

As for whether it is true or not, and whether it is in your interests, what will you do afterwards?Sorry, it is not within the scope of consideration. There are many examples in society now. You can think of a few at any time when you travel around: so-and-so, so-and-so, so-and-so.

You'd better think about this for yourself, and I won't give examples. What you think is public opinion is just what you think.

The ancient ruling class would only make decisions based on their own needs.

The chapter about the choice between pen and ashes is the most practical, truly revealing that interests are the eternal criterion.

The top wants political achievements, the bottom wants to make a living, and the wealthy gentry wants money.

As for which side is justice, it depends on which side you stand on. The butt determines the head. This is definitely not an empty talk, but a real code of conduct.

I read the book once, but sometimes when I want to read it a second time, I can’t stand it anymore.

The helpless feelings of despair, helplessness, insignificance, and despair are too strong. This is not a cool novel at all, but a history of the suffering of the bottom class.

In modern foreign societies, do you think that just because you have enough food and clothing, you are no longer at the bottom?No need to suffer?

Think about your rest time, your future, your mortgage, your children’s education, your parents’ retirement, and your own body?
What is the difference between ancient times and today?
What is Xuanwu Lake?
That is the location of the first archives of Ming Dynasty.

What's in it?
It's a yellow book!
That is household registration!
This is the management method from ancient times to the present. What is the purpose?
The answer in the book is: collect taxes in a well-founded way and control the people well.

The more and more detailed data a political power has, the more transparent the world will be and the more stable its rule will be.

So I would like to remind you,
Obey the law, pay taxes according to the law, and be a good modern citizen.

Xuanwu Lake originally had no bridge.

Travel is all by boat, which largely eliminates the risk of being stolen or damaged.

Now it is a tourist attraction, but it was originally a military base with a high degree of confidentiality. Fishermen and fishing are not allowed, and only corresponding government officials are allowed in and out.

However, in a strict system, people are also needed to implement it.

As a human being, we have the seven emotions and six desires.

There is a dispute of interest.

So eventually dynasties changed.

Expecting that long-term peace and stability can be achieved by relying on policies only shows that Taizu was too naive. There is no policy that will change everything, and there is no permanent solution. Only interests are the eternal bond.

Zhou You himself is a small citizen of Shengdou, and what he likes to see is the life of small people of Shengdou in history.

Unfortunately, history seldom records the common people.

But based on the fragments of records, we can also get a glimpse of the secrets.That is,
Helpless!

After Zhou You understood this truth, he decided to lie down and start enjoying himself in time.

Little did I know that I would have a chance to enjoy it before I even started lying down.

Only a fool can lie down if he can enjoy happiness!

Gan Ying originally wanted to accompany the tour during the day and act as a commentator, but her health did not allow it, so they agreed to go on a tour of the Qinhuai River together in the evening.

The Qinhuai River during the day is just an ordinary river.

The Qinhuai River at night is a place for literati to relax.

Put another way.

A place to listen to music.

A leisure place for the leisure class.

You can imagine who you would be if you were there.

Zhou You fantasized that he was a scholar-bureaucrat.

Unfortunately, it is more likely to be a boatman, a snack seller, a turtle slave, or even someone's servant.

These are the lives of ordinary people.

Pass through Wuyi Lane in the middle.

Everyone is very familiar with it because it represents the rise and fall of history and the change of wealth.

Weeds and flowers by the Suzaku Bridge,
The setting sun is slanting at the entrance of Wuyi Alley.

In the old days, Wang Xietang Qianyan,
Fly into the homes of ordinary people.

There is a very popular saying on the Internet: How can the efforts of three generations be lost to your ten years of hard study!

When this sentence first started, everyone agreed very much. Yes, you have worked hard, so you should enjoy it!
The traditional thinking of the Chinese people is that it is bitter first and then sweet, so as to benefit future generations.

But slowly, there are more and more voices of opposition.

Without it, there would be more people thinking.

Some of it is not hard work, it is luck and the dividends of the times.

Those revolutionaries who died before dawn were happy and died for their ideals.

A problem that cannot be solved for thousands of years.

Gan Ying was a little uncomfortable at first. Suddenly there were two more people around her. They followed her wherever they went, especially when they went to the bathroom.But slowly, after my thinking changed, I got much better.

Just think of it as having a best friend, a good friend who is inseparable.

My mentality changed instantly.

No wonder Zhou You always talks about being brothers, and there is such a meaning in it.

With someone following me, I feel more relaxed. Although I have never seen the actual combat ability, the idiom of strength in numbers is very clear. Huging together for warmth is also for safety.

"Ye Cai, are you tired from training?" Gan Ying was a little curious.

"It's okay. I'm used to it. The supporting facilities are good. It's much better than before. It's not as strong as before. After all, I'm retired." Ye Cai said cheerfully.

"Are there many people in your museum?" Gan Ying also asked Zhou You in disguise

"There are quite a few, but there are not many female coaches. Now that we are here, Brother You asked us to introduce a few more people. Everyone wants to come. Brother You gave us too much." When Xiang Min said this, his whole body Everyone is laughing.

"Is it convenient to talk about your treatment?" Gan Ying actually saw the happy side of working as a worker.

Xiang Min and Ye Cai looked at each other and exchanged glances: "There's nothing that can't be said. The salary and bonuses add up to about 20. There are relatively few female coaches and their salaries are relatively high, but this does not include year-end bonuses and business trips." subsidy."

……

Gan Ying didn't know what to say. In this era, this kind of treatment could kill many migrant workers instantly. No wonder the happiness level is so high!
　Hope not to be blocked...
