Hu Cunyi was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and couldn't help but sigh and said to Hu Chun: "Since that's the case, while the East Factory is still just taking it as a father, you should leave Zhongtu quickly and find a vassal state to stay! Never come back! Unless the world's priest emperor collapses, you can come back."

"Father! I..."

Hu Chun was quite shocked.

But before he finished speaking, Hu Cunyi interrupted him and waved his hand and said, "No need to say it again, unless you are like Gu Ning and others, who only know the world as the public, but do not know how to respect the people in the world!"

Next.

Hu Cunyi was taken to the Dongchang Anti-Corruption Department by the people from the Dongchang.

In today's Ming Dynasty.

The scholar-officials will have to face two options.

Or choose the concept of governing the country and pacifying the world and implement it.

Like Gu Yanwu, he has the ideal of "the poor are getting richer, and the rich are not poor."

Or choose to maximize your fame and fortune.

Like Hu Cunyi, he actually had the idea of ​​getting involved in the official industry and making it change color.

In history, scholars of this period also faced two choices because of the chaos in the world and the Qing Dynasty entering the Central Plains.

Either choose to follow the morality in your heart, refuse to cooperate with the Qing Dynasty, or even sacrifice for the Ming Dynasty because of despair of the world.

Either they entered the Qing Dynasty to seek wealth or not or to be reluctant to live a wealthy life.

Although they are all scholars and officials, they have different choices, naturally because people have different needs.

All of this is because the imperial examination is the only way for scholars of this era to achieve fame and fortune, or to achieve the ambition of governing the country and pacifying the world.

But now, there are too many scholars, so the imperial examination has already passed by thousands of troops crossing a single-plank bridge.

Some people naturally do everything they can to achieve in order to win the first place. Just as capitalists will sell the ropes that strangle themselves to death because of their pursuit of profits. Many scholars have sought to each other and made friends in the imperial examinations for fame and fortune. Therefore, they do not hesitate to violate the law, commit serious crimes, and bribe examiners and bribe relationships.

For example, in the sixth year of Chongzhen in history, the leader of the Fushe, Zhang Pu, had a banquet at Suzhou, Wen Zhenmeng and Xiang Yu, openly entrusted him to assist Yang Weishu during the examination, and Wu Zhongluan was selected as the Huiyuan.

In the tenth year of Chongzhen, Wu Weiye and Xia Yuehu made secret moves and finally let Sun Yijing win Huiyuan.

Wu Weiye was able to get a senior high school student by himself because he had Zhou Yanru and Li Mingrui had a good personal relationship with his father.

Therefore, the scholars and officials who truly only have the ambition to govern the country and pacify the world and have not had a deep sense of fame, fame, wealth and honor will be unable to win the first place because they are unwilling to take too inferior measures.

Therefore, among the Jinshi who were ranked first, there were fewer and fewer scholars who really wanted to govern the country and pacify the world.

Fortunately, since Zhu Youxiao ascended the throne, the number of enrollment in the Ming Dynasty has greatly expanded the number of places in the commemorative and provincial examinations, which has led many scholars who are more willing to choose to govern the country and pacify the world as their lifelong belief.

Especially powerful figures like Gu Yanwu who left their names in later generations were directly noticed by Zhu Youxiao in this era, and they were able to become officials and work for the Ming Dynasty.

In history, people like Gu Yanwu were only unable to pass the imperial examination because of their pure minds. Therefore, they worked hard and wasted their time. Until they failed to pass the imperial examinations several times and saw the dirty world in the officialdom clearly, they realized that they no longer insisted on the imperial examinations, thinking that not being an official could save the world and the people. Therefore, they wrote books and eventually became a great man of the generation. In the future, their reputations surpassed those of the officials and ministers of the Taiwan Pavilion who achieved fame and wealth at the same time as him.

As the emperor, Zhu Youxiao also chose the concept of "the poor are getting richer, and the rich are not poor", and was unwilling to make the poorer and the rich become richer.

This also allowed the court in the Central Empire of the Ming Dynasty to actively interfere in the free development of the market economy.

Therefore, people who only pursue fame and fortune will be very unhappy in the Ming Dynasty.

After all, the imperial court lets those who only pursue fame and fortune, not seek profit at will, but they cannot let their lives in a luxurious life.

The court indeed wanted the poor to become richer, but the rich could not return to poverty.

Because the court wants everyone to be rich.

Therefore, the imperial court now forces these wealthy people to spend money as much as the soil by prohibiting land rent and land transactions.

Xu Jie's great-grandson, Xu Niancun, lived a luxurious life and often loved to compete for luxury.

But Xu Niancun didn't like to study since he was born, and in this generation, his Xu family was no longer particularly powerful.

Therefore, if Xu Niancun wants to maintain a luxurious life, he can only sell his land or increase his rent.

He had both ancestors and left a lot of land. Even after several times of clearing the land, his Xu family still had a lot of land.

Xu Niancun was able to maintain a luxurious and wealthy life by selling land and increasing land rent.

But now, the court is not allowed to trade land, nor to increase land rent, and even limits the reference price of land rent, which makes Xu Niancun unable to maintain a luxurious life through these two types of occurrences.

This made Xu Niancun very depressed.

"Damn it, now this court really cares about the east, the west, people are shit and fart. My family's own property is not allowed to sell it. I want to make a fortune, what does it have to do with your court!"

Xu Niancun even cursed at the North University for this reason.

But Xu Niancun did not dare to really violate the imperial court's orders, and went to sell land privately. He could only mortgage the land and real estate at home to the Ming Bank on the grounds that his family was in a difficult situation and he wanted to start a business, and then borrowed a large amount of money.

However, after Xu Nianxian got this large amount of money, he did not really start a business, but still used it to gamble and drink to maintain his luxurious life.

Therefore, not long after, his money was spent again, so he still owed a large sum of money to the court.

The people from the East Factory had to confiscate the Xu family and confiscate their industrial registration into the official position.

But the Xu family's property can only be considered as principal. Xu Niancun has been missing for a long time for a long time, so Xu Niancun still needs to pay a lot of interest on the court.

Therefore, Dongchang reported the matter to Zhu Youxiao.

After Zhu Youxiao found out, he said: "In the future, if a person like Xu Niancun, if he cannot repay all the money owed, he will be arrested in the local government-run mining areas to work, and his remuneration will be used to repay the money owed until it is repaid."

Therefore, Xu Niancun was arranged to go to Australia to mine iron ore.

After the Ming Dynasty discovered Australia, it had already dispatched its forces to mine iron ore crazily here. After all, the iron ore in Australia is indeed very high-quality and easy to mine.

"I won't go! I won't go!"

After Xu Nianzhong learned that he was going to be arranged to go to Australia to mine, he collapsed and struggled desperately.

"This is not what you want and take him away!"

After the people from the East Factory said that Xu Niancun was dragged into the car.

Xu Niancun felt even more aggrieved for a moment and couldn't help crying: "What's this? I defeated my family, but in the end I owed the money from the court, and in the end I had to pay back the debt to the court!"

After Xu Niancun arrived at the Australian workers' dormitory, he couldn't help but feel even more desperate: "Is this what people live in?"

As he said that, Xu Niancun shouted: "I want to go home! I want to go home! Let me go back!"

The supervisor at the place took over Xu Niancun from the people of the East Factory and took Xu Niancun to the cafeteria first, and said, "Let him have a meal first."
Chapter completed!
