In the past few days at Huaben Training Base, Xu Youzhi basically walked around Wu Chengen.
A master pretends to be young and comes to learn, leaving himself with no inventory at all.
Most of the time I hide myself in the study and read the manuscript of Wu's Journey to the West carefully.
The first is to study the essence carefully. This is also the note that Gao Hanwen handed over before, which is to understand it from the four perspectives of alchemy practice, Buddhism and Taoism, metaphors of current affairs, and human nature.
Secondly, focus on finding mistakes. Just like the Douban critics of later generations, I can't write it, but it doesn't prevent me from commenting.
While Xu Youzhi tried his best to regain his respect, Wu Chengen and Wang Xiaoer became friends forever.
Although the people in the entire training base look different to outsiders. But Wu Chengen and Wang Xiaoer also look different inside the base.
I don’t know if it’s the principle of a negative that makes a positive, but the two of them found themselves quite happy when they were on the street, much better than other shy otaku writers.
"You kid, why do you always bring me here to Taixi Square? I wonder if the things here are the most expensive? My teacher is still proofreading, and I don't have the money to treat you to luxury and corruption now." Wu Chengen When I saw the neighborhood plaque of Taixi Fang, I smiled and got vaccinated in advance while walking.
"Senior brother, I won't spend any money on you this time, just come to see new things."
"And senior brother clearly wrote about Monk Tang's journey to the west. How can he do it if he has never come into contact with people in the west? . I heard from my uncle that a group of people from Tianzhu came recently, so I asked my senior brother to come and have a look, so that Monk Tang would not have to go to Tianzhu and still have to follow the Ming Dynasty rules."
Wang Xiaoer Originally, I was just trying to find an excuse for myself to talk.
I just say it, you just listen to it, and you are irresponsible afterwards.
But Wu Chengen is living a clear life by accompanying Wang Xiaoer every day, but he is not really still young when he is old. When I heard it, I felt energetic.
Because his revised Journey to the West has a common problem with previous old versions, that is, the West does not look like the West. They are all matryoshka dolls of the Ming Dynasty.
"But we are watching from a distance, but it won't have any effect. It would be great if we could get in touch." Wu Chengen suddenly felt a little troubled.
"That's no problem. We'll be guarding the door. When Uncle Lai comes out, I'll be responsible for opening the joints." Wang Xiaoer volunteered confidently.
Because when Lai Zongqi was in the magistrate's office, Jin Cuilan still helped to change clothes and take care of him. In addition, he was not thousands of miles away like the Ming Dynasty tolerance. We are familiar with Wang Xiaoer from time to time.
Wang Xiaoer and Wu Chengen were hanging around outside the gate of Taixifang Weaving Yard until almost noon when they saw General Lai Qi stumbling out from inside, full of food and wine.
Lai Zong’s flag is actually raised now, but we can’t go around fighting the autumn wind all day long like before. After eating until noon, I should go to the Baihu Yamen of Jinyiwei to order mao, meaning I would work the evening shift for an hour or two.
"Uncle Lai, Uncle Lai, this way, this way"
p>Wang Xiaoer boldly went to Mr. Lai, introduced Wu Chengen and expressed his intention.
Fortunately, Lai Zongqi's level of Mandarin is quite high now, and he can understand a few sentences without any ink. He took the people and handed them over to the shopkeeper Daming inside and went on his own.
With Lai Zongqi's identity as a way to open the way, the two of them easily saw dozens of servants and female slaves newly transported from Tianzhu.
Many of the uncooperative ones were still being whipped in the dark room, which made the two bosses unbearable.
However, after all, it is a family’s internal affairs and cannot be managed. Does the Tianzhu servant who enters the Ming Dynasty enjoy the judicial protection of the Ming Dynasty? This is a question.
Fortunately, the two of them were not entangled. Although they were whipped, they still had something to eat after all. Who hasn’t been through hardship? I just don’t know that these eighty people now are actually the remaining ones who died when Tianzhu was loading the ship.
The key reason why these foreigners want to introduce slaves from Tianzhu and Nanyang is that the wages stipulated by the Ming Dynasty are too expensive. By this standard, Taixi Weaving can never make big profits. Therefore, this group of talents secretly seek the distance at the expense of the near.
A long-term worker registered with the Ming government in Hangzhou would start out with at least two taels of silver a month. The Weaving Bureau, where the demand was high, would basically start with three to four taels of silver. There is no way to evade tax by registering another harm. The yamen directly calculates taxes based on the number of employees, so there is no way to get away with it.
It’s a pity that these people don’t know that in the Ming Dynasty, there are always policies at the top and countermeasures at the bottom. Because most of the employees in the Ming Dynasty were never registered with the government. Even at the Weaving Bureau, Gao Hanwen cooperated in changing the registration from rice to mulberry after he arrived. Therefore, there are neither high labor costs nor business taxes.
The steward picked a few leaders and assigned a translator, and then went about his work.
Wu Chengen’s questions were relatively free, and they basically revolved around life, stories of gods and demons, and the subjugation of the country by bureaucracy.
"What, Tianzhu is gone"
When Wu Chengen heard the news, he was extremely shocked. Because he originally thought that even if it was gone, there would be a new dynasty. Now it seems that Buddhism and Tianzhu Kingdom have completely disappeared. The differences between countries and dynasties that Wu Chengen was not aware of at this moment were deeply ingrained in his subsequent revised version of the story.
"It's not gone, it's gone a long time ago." The translator rarely had anything to do, so he gave Wu Cheng'en a stab. Please remember to collect it, the latest and fastest website is free to read without anti-theft
