The road to immortality for a hundred generations

Chapter 91 Investigation (there are four more updates during the day, please wait)

As one of the three major counties of the Wei Dynasty, Tianyang County has 130 county seats and [-] seven villages.

Although measures such as building bridges, paving roads, and renovating houses are only implemented in Tianyang County.But other aspects, such as the reduction of various taxes, wages for corvee service, and new county regulations, have been implemented in the respective counties and villages.

"From now on, those who defecate in the street in Yangshan County will be fined from twenty to fifty cents, and those who behave badly will be fined from one to three fines."

In front of the notice in Yangshan County, a scholar wearing a long gown read loudly the notice just posted by the government officials.

"No open defecation allowed?"

"What if I can't help it?"

"Yes, people have three urgent needs. If they can't hold it in on the street, will they have to hold it in and die?"

"You just pooped, and you were fined [-] cents? This is a money grab!"

"Not only are there fines, but there are also beatings, and there are no royal laws!"

"What are you doing with these things? Are you going to let people live?"

Just after reading the first article, the onlookers couldn't bear it anymore.

The laws of the Wei Dynasty only targeted behaviors of a bad nature, such as robbery, murder, theft, rape, abduction, disloyalty, unfilial piety, deceiving the emperor, treason, etc.

Small matters such as two people quarreling but not doing anything, or pulling up two of the neighbor's green vegetables, throwing feces in front of the local door, or dropping the poop in the middle of the road, are handled by the local government according to the situation.

Therefore, although they are all in the Wei Dynasty, the county regulations, county regulations, and village regulations are different in each place.

For example, in Cheonyang County, those who defecate in public on the street will be fined a hundred cents. In addition, if they are seen by one or more women, three additional fines will be imposed.

But if you poop on the street, in many counties, you just have to ask the pooper to clean it up.

Yangshan County originally did the same thing, but for some reason, the county regulations were suddenly modified today to imitate the county regulations and include defecation in the street, intentional destruction of other people's property, insults, pushing and other behaviors that are not particularly bad. sex.

In the past, many of these things were done when the government officials came and didn't have to do anything. The matter was solved. The punishment was nothing more than an apology based on the behavior and compensation for some money.

Now, the new county regulations have increased the penalties for these things. If you violate them, you will not only be fined, but you may even be slapped with a slap in the face.

Xu Xiuwen, an older student who was reading the new regulations, looked expressionless on the surface, but in fact she was already happy in her heart.

He has always had the problem of urinating in the street as reported by the county government. After all, this kind of behavior is really degrading to politeness.

But in the end, he was gently taken away every time and the perpetrator was just asked to clean up without any punishment.

Although many people are too embarrassed to relieve themselves in the street, there are always some who, regardless of whether they can hold it in or not, just find a place on the street to relieve themselves if they want to.

The most important thing is that not everyone cleans up after defecating. Most people just pick up their pants and leave, leaving only a pool of feces in the place exuding a stench.

This makes Xu Xiuwen, who is a child and likes walking in the streets, always see new things happening every day, which makes her mood very bad.

What's more, after a long time, the whole street of the county office seemed to be emitting a faint stench, and he could hardly stand it anymore.

But it seems that everyone is used to it, and they don't even have the same expression.

"Article [-] of the county regulations states that all kinds of discarded and useless things must not be discarded at will. They must be discarded in the same place every ten households."

"Article [-] of the County Rules states that those who insult others should be slapped three or more times according to their attitude. Article [-] of the County Rules states that tuberose and other filthy substances must be dumped in latrines and must not be thrown randomly on the streets."

"County Rules Article [-] County Rules Article [-]."

In front of the bulletin board, Xu Xiuwen became more and more excited as she read, and the more she read, the more she couldn't help but read the next article.This new county code is so good. There are penalties for almost every article. Unlike before, big things were always reduced to trivial matters. In the end, the perpetrators were not punished.

"In this way, everyone will definitely become a polite person because they are afraid of the new regulations."

Xu Xiuwen thought so in her heart.

"What are you doing here?"

Suddenly, a deep voice came. Xu Xiuwen followed the voice and saw a burly man in clean, well-fitting clothes walking towards him, followed by two people who seemed to be followers.

The visitor was Wang Wu, who was ordered to go to the countryside to investigate the yield of the fields.

"What a weird smell!"

The further he walked into the street, the more Wang Wu couldn't help but cover his nose and subconsciously searched his surroundings.

There are three poops near the left corner. Maybe because few people passed by, they were all dried.

There was a yellow stain under the front window, which looked like someone might have dumped urine there regularly.

Looking at the streets that are most likely to be trampled, there is actually a thin layer of horse manure.

"New county regulations issued by the county master,"

An old man dressed as an old farmer sighed, "The other new rules are okay, but they are only a small part, such as not peeing in the open. People have three urgent needs. If they can't help it, who would poop in the street? "

"It's ridiculous. No matter how anxious you are, you can't do something like this. Besides, in my age, I have never had to show off in public!"

In the crowd, another man wearing a long gown frowned and scolded.

"Hmph! You scholars just look sanctimonious, but in fact everyone knows what you are doing secretly."

A voice came from the crowd.

However, I only heard his voice and never saw his person.

Wang Wu, who brought his two subordinates to the notice board, actually supported these two guys who looked like scholars.

As early as ten years ago, Tianyang County imposed harsh penalties on people who defecated in the street, but the enforcement was very low.

Just because everyone thinks this is not a big deal, even if they see it, they pretend they haven't seen it.

Therefore, less than ten people were fined a hundred cents for urinating in the street every year, and only once in the past ten years was a woman caught urinating in the street and given a slap on the wrist.

Later, after the new regulations appeared, most of them followed the old regulations, but some details were added, such as how to deal with horse and dog feces, and the enforcement intensity was increased by several levels.

The specific performance is as follows: there are two official servants or yamen guards on each street, and they will fine anyone who breaks the law.

Originally, Wang Wuer also thought that this matter was a bit of a trivial matter. It was just a poop, and it was not killing people in the street. As for being reduced to the point where he would be beaten three times after being seen by a woman?

But now that nearly a year has passed, Wang Wu unexpectedly discovered that the streets were much cleaner and the smell had almost disappeared.

Especially since I no longer have to step on something that I don’t know if it’s dog poop or human feces.

"Anyway, the new regulations have come down. I don't believe you have the ability to make the county magistrate change his mind."

The scholar wearing a long gown dropped these words, glanced at the remaining county regulations, and then turned and left.
