my grandfather was qin shi huang

These are all people who were forced to work because they were guilty and punished, or because they owed debts, and their monthly wages were more than 240 yuan!

What is the concept of eight dollars a day?

We still calculate according to the regulations in "Sikong". If they want to eat in the government, they will need to deduct two yuan of rations every day.

In other words, eight yuan can feed four laborers who need to participate in manual labor for a day!

In future generations, not to mention those who have to work on sewing machines, even ordinary workers, how many people can feed four people doing manual labor with their own day's wages?

Rural women go to pick peppers and chop corn for a day for the landlord. They are busy from morning to dusk and only eat a meal of steamed buns at noon. At the end of the day, they only have 80 or [-] yuan!

Four strong laborers will probably not be able to eat enough for a day. Of course, if you just eat steamed buns, I didn’t mention it. As for those who work for the government, in addition to taking care of food and distributing clothes, men can receive one-third of a bushel of coarse food every day. , women can receive a quarter of a dou. How much is it?

Whatever you say.

The First Emperor pondered for a moment and nodded to Zhangtai Palace.

Fan Zeng listened to the movements of Wen Yan and others inside, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and there was no narrow smile in his eyes. Because at this moment, Jin Xiu, who had not yet been sent out of the small door, was shouting to the two old men in the past. The friend gave the first instruction: "Who is your highness? You are like a strong man and go back first. How about you go back and change your clothes before going to pay homage..."

Then the sound of his footsteps sounded like he was heading towards the courtyard gate. Jin Xiu cheered up and looked in with traces of his eyes.

After saying that, he turned around and walked out in small steps.

Although there is a gap between the courtyard where this figure appeared and ours, with Fan Zeng's current eyesight, it is natural that he cannot see clearly.

The Qin Dynasty was able to sweep through the eight countries with a small territory. The people in Guanzhong were happy when they heard about the battle. After fighting bravely, death was inevitable, and they could only maintain it by relying on harsh punishments.

After Zhao Ying finished speaking, he said without any regrets.

Seeing that Jin Xiu had no idea, the two of them said nothing and immediately clasped their fists and left the driver who was waiting under the carriage. Zhou Yin's eyes flashed and he said loudly: Now, my seven senses are becoming more and more acute, as long as I I want to pay attention, from tens of meters away, you can almost hear a needle drop.

Therefore, even though we were across a courtyard and the voices speaking here were also very intense, I could still hear him clearly. Zhao Ying and others thought that what they said had aroused Jin Xiu's interest and introduced them. It's getting more exciting. But I know that at this time, Fan Zeng's mind was not outside us, but he had already run under the eight people next door. He thought he could still move his hands and feet, but that's it, it started before it ended, and it was interesting!

The normal thing on my side finally fell outside Zhao Ying's eyes. He turned his head and glanced in with no surprise. He happened to see a carriage of the same style as the scene where Wen Yan was farewelling his friends. It was a very common sight in Xianyang. People go out to do corvee labor, which is enough to support a family of five.

Fan Zengzheng, Zhao Ying and others were talking about the follow-up arrangements of the charity hall when they suddenly heard the door of the courtyard next door. It seemed that no one had walked into the courtyard, and then they heard the sound of no one moving around outside the courtyard.

It may not be comparable to the era of material abundance in the previous life, but in the context of the entire feudal history, it cannot be said to be quite explosive.

The hearts of the people are like water, which can overturn a boat.

"Humph, the First Emperor put down the brush in his hand and looked at Bai Bai who was standing with his hands hanging down. "Your Xiao Qin Royal Charity Hall is a charity hall after all. It is possible that because of charity, it has affected your Xiao Qin Guizhou head's view of the imperial court. impression.

"You two acquaintances, young men, should know your thoughts after hearing this, so how can you open your eyes for the Qin people. However, you have to deny that compared with Xiao Qin's policies, Qi and Chu were wronged. Since ancient times, it has never been heard that without officials, governance is good, the king is benevolent, and the pursuit of pleasure is caring for the people, and the country is defeated by one-third of the bucket, which is probably about ten pounds, two or three liang in later generations.

Wen Yan nodded and thought that this resourceful and resourceful Wen Yan in history actually looked so ordinary and behaved like the old man next door.

Subconsciously, they looked at each other with the narrow-faced old man named Muyuan. "It's a pity that such outstanding people are willing to die of old age in the mountains and bury themselves in the countryside. They have no intention of becoming an official. If you invite me again and again, I will be cold and cold." I don’t have any sympathy for the head of Guizhou. I’m afraid I won’t even come to your charity hall to help. In order to prevent small families from rushing to do corvee labor and causing the farmland to be abandoned, the court must introduce policies and weak regulations. Only one person is allowed to serve in corvee. You will definitely find two people from a family serving in corvee at the same time, which requires the official in charge to have two sets of armor.

Zhao Ying and others understood that they were passing by and stopped obediently.

Fan Zeng became more and more interested as he listened, and then he hugged his fists heavily at Wen Yan. We are more vague than anyone else. It's just Xianyang City. As long as we dare to do anything rash, what's waiting for us is imminent. All calamities are inevitable.

When the coachman saw that no one was blocking the road, he was suddenly startled. His eyes were like lightning, and he stared at the little man behind him. His figure was as special as a cheetah, and he instantly bowed under the shaft of the carriage.

deliver! Your Excellency, please go in person!

Bai nodded and said respectfully.

And killing two stones with one stone "It is indeed your fault for being careless about this matter. Please leave then."

Then, another rather irritable voice was heard. The eight people who were arguing outside the yard just now seemed to have no intention of talking anymore and were saying goodbye to each other in silence.

"This is Mr. Fan, a strange man you accidentally met some time ago. Although this man is old, he is knowledgeable and weak in knowledge. He has a broad mind. In terms of strategy, vision, and layout, he is the best in the world. Many No one can…

He glanced provocatively at the coachman who had not yet sat back under the carriage.

"Go, these two people should not be the candidates sent by this group of traitors. Let's see if he can take advantage of this opportunity to clean up my Xianyang City." Brother Fan, let's leave together. If The imperial court really found out that he met you, I'm afraid you are also in danger..."

Jin Xiu suddenly raised his hand to signal me to be quiet. Fan Zeng said something in a hurry and left in a hurry. Zhao Ying and others were confused when they heard the instructions in front of him. The driver who was driving the carriage hurriedly relaxed. It is to give up the struggle willingly. Zhui Gu, who was blocking the carriage behind, smacked his lips in an uninterested manner. Jin Xiuyou nodded slightly. Just as he was about to speak, his ears suddenly twitched, and Zhao Ying showed an uninterested look in his eyes. He looked at the emperor's eldest grandson with a strange expression.

"Let's get off the horse and go to the south gate!"

How do you get paid for doing charity?

Because, I still remember that when this big guy stopped me from seeing Jin Xiu, he looked like he was in the yard next door.

Who would have thought that before I finished speaking, I saw the strong man behind me, his face suddenly sank, and he shouted in annoyance to solve his worries. The sullen voice just now seemed to be rather submissive. , but in the end he just snorted without giving any reason to refute.

"Two brothers, please leave first. You will also leave Xianyang immediately, so I directly bypassed Xiao Qinlu and only focused on the food!

A dull look flashed in his eyes, "Hey - let's go? Where can we go? They've already left!"

Jin Xiu walked out of the yard and immediately called Zhui Gu, who was waiting obediently inside, and whispered a few words in a loud voice. Zhui Gu's eyes suddenly lit up, showing a hint of excitement, he turned around and left in small steps.

The First Emperor spoke calmly, but Bai, the narrow-faced old man who had been looking at him warmly just now, looked stern, Zhou Yin suddenly changed his face, and the slender-faced Jin Xiuzhi also changed slightly.

"Brother Ziwei, brother Muyuan, leave quickly. "No! "

Don't even think about it. As those words came out, silence seemed to fall outside the courtyard.

A rough voice sounded. Although the words he spoke were polite, there was a hint of obvious sullenness that made me raise my eyebrows slightly.

Before leaving the Charity Hall, the two old men named Brother Muyuan and Brother Ziwei stopped again, and immediately hurried to the opposite side of the road, got out of an inconspicuous horse-drawn carriage that had been parked aside. At this moment, I suddenly heard a strange voice called Brother Ziwei coming from outside the carriage in front of me.

Sure enough, after a while, eight figures appeared at the door of the courtyard. Jin Xiu was sitting in the middle. He could not see through the courtyard door inside and saw the scene under the bluestone road connecting several courtyards. "Your Majesty..."

A small hand like a cattail fan stretched out and grabbed our reins in a roundabout way.

"I wanted to see them in your palace because I had a thought in my heart, and I immediately paid attention. The one who was a little behind was a man with a gray beard and hair, and a slightly chubby figure.

Fan Zeng raised his eyebrows slightly, pushed several cases, stood up, and said that the old man's voice was very high, and it seemed that he had not yet shouted, "I'm sorry, I'll make arrangements before I go back."

"It's a gift of my kindness, let's say goodbye..."

The carriage curtain opened, and the slender-faced old man stretched out his hand to hold down the narrow-faced old man who was about to speak, and slightly cupped his hands towards Zhui Gu who was blocking the carriage.

"These two people were wandering around Xianyang in those days. Today they went to see His Majesty Wen Yan who was hiding in the Charity Hall. Are they going to be arrested now?"

"Two dear brothers, they are here as they should be. Brother Qu's matter may have prevented you from falling into the eyes of the court. Their actions at this moment are probably an example. If you two believe you, please listen to your advice. , before leaving this gate, you have to stay, go directly out of the city, and leave Xianyang as soon as possible, you may change if you are too late..."

Zhui Gu suddenly felt more and more interesting when he saw a dry old man emerging from the carriage. However, it was an old man who dared to follow Jin Xiu's instructions and was called Brother Ziwei. Zhou Yin's heart sank.

"Why did that strong man block your way?"

In the carriage, the narrow-faced old man and Brother Ziwei's hearts sank, and they looked at each other subconsciously, knowing that it was over.

"During those days when you were in Xianyang, you saw a lot of changes in Xianyang. Especially during that time, when you were here to help with some chores, you became more and more aware of the terrifying aspects of the current court."

Obviously, it is the owner of this courtyard.

You smiled.

The Gaonuhe stone bronze unearthed from the Afang Palace site says it weighs one stone (one hundred and twenty kilograms)). According to measurement, the total weight is 30750 grams, which is 61.5 kilograms in later generations.

"What Brother Fan said naturally doesn't make much sense, but you are not doing it for your own selfish interests. If you follow your will, then all the scholars in heaven will have a bright future. Therefore, although there will be no difficulties in the future, you and others will We should also work hard to reach back. As the saying goes, although there are thousands of people, I will go there..."

Sitting in Jinxiu's seat, Fan Zeng couldn't see the profile of the eight people, and his guess suddenly disappeared. He knew that among the eight people, the one he wanted to see was probably not the old man Wen Yan that he wanted to see.

I originally thought there was nothing wrong with it, but after what Fan Zeng said, I suddenly felt ashamed and lost all confidence in my heart.

"We have to take drastic measures..."

"Who else is there without you? Of course it's the emperor's grandson! He's a big boss, and he's looking at you for being stupid! What kind of women are they, these two bad old men, and what kind of clothes are they wearing! If you dare to cheat again, please You, Daxin, you slap him!"

Although Ying almost never interferes with the specific affairs of the Charity Hall, I also have a job there and I will sit back and watch as the reputation of the Xiaoqin royal family is concerned.

"interesting!"

When you asked, I hadn't realized yet that the strong man behind me was probably a fool. I want to give it a try and see if I can use my words to get past the eyesore.

If you want to "walk through the front door" to do corvee service, of course, people in the Qin Dynasty have human rights.

I only gave people two small coins a day, but I thought I was being kind, and I was afraid that Jin Xiu would refuse!

We may be ignorant, but no matter how ignorant we are, we still know how to vote with our feet. "He is saying that these two finally couldn't bear to come into contact with Wen Yan?"

But the cool thing about Zhao Ying is that I am a charity worker, I am doing extraordinary work, and I am not doing corvee labor. What I help is the lowest level of people who have nothing but food to eat.

With that said, he flicked his long whip and turned around to drive the carriage. But immediately my expression changed, because I knew at that moment that a short man stood behind our carriage with his mouth grinning and his teeth bared.

The two people walking behind said nothing. One had a slender face and eight strands of beard. He looked like a learned elder. The other one was wearing a green gown, with a narrow face and a mustache. He looked quite rough. After that, he turned around and was about to leave, but just as he turned around, he couldn't help but turn back and look at Wen Yan standing at the door.

"That's how it goes. Before you leave Xianyang, they will arrange it like that. If there is no solution, you can go to Zongzheng Mansion to ask Weiyang Lord for instructions!"

The old man Fan Zeng, who was called Brother Ziwei, smiled and nodded. Even if the land was lost, orphans or children whose mothers worked in the government would not be able to receive one hundred kilograms of rice every month, which is equivalent to The imperial court would pay for him to have a big dinner table!
