Chapter 37

"The Bing Jing in the officialdom and the gifts handed by Tongmenzi are very particular. If you write it too straightforwardly, others may not have to. If you write it too confusing, they will be wrong." Chen Zhou looked at the two of them unhappily and said, "So they have their own set of rules, about Bing Jing. For example, Bing Jing, Carbon Jing, and Jie Jing, which we ordinary old friends know about, are only entry-level 'rules'. What's more, this is a way to increase the reasonable salary of officials by the emperor."

"What did you say? These are reasonable salaries." Chen said incredibly at him.

"That's right, this is what the emperor knows and allows." Chen Zhou looked at her with his eyes as bright as jade,

When Chen heard this, his eyes almost glared off the window, rolled up his sleeves and said, "Oh! Heng'er, why didn't you say it earlier! Mom is so excited to stop and will never live such a hard life again." He felt like he was turning over and making a decision.

Qi Yaoyao looked at the excited Chen family and smirked, thinking too much.

"Mom, mom, have you misunderstood something?" Chen Zhouheng said, looking at her with a sharp look.

"What?" Chen looked at him in confusion and said, "Isn't this what you said? What's wrong?"

"You are excited to hear me finish my words." Chen Zhouheng looked at her with a sharp and deep eyes and said with a funny look.

"You say, you say." Chen said embarrassedly, "I won't interrupt."

"The emperor prevents officials from corruption and gives them favors, but they are exploited by some corrupt officials and take advantage of them." Chen Zhouheng said to them with dark and deep eyes.

"The crooked monk cannot recite the true scriptures." Qi Yaoyao's elegant eyes flashed with a slight snorted coldly, "Once this person is greedy, he can't stop this greed."

"Yes! It's not easy to collect yellow and white things openly, that's so vulgar! It defiles their elegance. If it is discovered, it's bad." Chen Zhou looked at them with black and steep eyes again, "I can accept silver, and this reputation cannot be denied, so there is a code word about Bing Jing and Carbon Jing, which spread in the officialdom. It's very elegant!"

"What are there?" Chen asked curiously.

"These five sons passed the imperial examination, which is equivalent to five taels of silver." Chen Zhouheng looked at them with dark and deep eyes and said, "The strong official is forty taels, taken from the top forty in the Book of Rites and officials. The Dayan is fifty taels, and the number of Dayan in the "Book of Changes" is fifty. The ears are just like the ones..."

"We know this, sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty

"Yeah!" Chen Zhouheng nodded when he heard this, snorted and said, "This is nothing? There are more elegant. The eight rhymes of the plum blossom poem, which is more elegant, right? In fact, it implies that the envelope contains eighty taels of silver notes. Of course, the forty sages do not list the list of forty sages, but refers to forty sage silver patterns."

"This is too few, and some officials don't like it." Qi Yaoyao said angrily, his dark eyes like thick ink that cannot be dissolved.

Chen Zhouheng was stunned when he heard this. He looked at them with amber eyes and said, "There are more advanced ones, one axis of the hundred-shou map, two axis, and three axis, one hundred taels of silver, two hundred taels, and three hundred taels. One double cypress tower, that is, two hundred taels. One Qin Pass is one hundred and twenty taels. The allusion comes from: Hangu Pass is one hundred and twenty feet high."

Qi Yaoyao lowered her eyes to cover her shocked eyes, and she could still "interpret" such a "interpretation".

"The Mao poem is equivalent to three hundred liang, and it comes from Mao's annotation of the Book of Songs. When Mengjin crosses, it is eight hundred liang, which refers to: Eight hundred princes crossing Mengjin to defeat Zhou." Chen Zhou looked at them with dark and deep eyes and said, "As for the famous sutras of Thousand Buddhas, it is even more amazing. It is a big deal of one thousand liang."

"They don't even let go of Buddhist scriptures." Chen said, looking at him with a dumbfounded look.

"Uh...yes." Chen Zhou twitched his forehead and said.

"Where did they get so much money?" Chen said incomprehensible. "We spent a penny in half. You can barely make a living with your salary. He often has dozens of taels or hundreds of taels, but how much money does he get?"

"Mom, don't you understand this? People's fat and people's paste, fish and meat." Chen Zhou looked at her with deep eyes and said, "Silver will not fall from the sky." He looked at them seriously and said, "Where is this silver? Although you collect it on weekdays, I collect it too. Crows are as black as pigs. Something really happened, it's a solid evidence."

"We don't have the money to give away or collect it. It's good to stay in this remote countryside honestly." Chen said, looking at him lovingly.

Chen Zhouheng heard this and looked at her with amber eyes and said with a silly smile, "This is a backer to eat the mountains. When the spring plowing is over, I will go and take a walk. I will guarantee that my mother and mother will not drink porridge every day."

Qi Yaoyao complained in his heart: In ancient times, corrupt officials used up their minds for the word "greed", otherwise the emperors would not have hated him so much. During the Hongwu period of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang even stipulated that those who embezzled more than 60 taels of silver should be executed immediately! But they still could not stop the corruption and successors!

Qi Yaoyao suddenly raised her head and looked at him with bright eyes, and asked quietly, "Is there many mountains here by relying on the mountain to eat the mountains?"

"More! I have checked the local logs here. More than 80% of them are mountains. It is really difficult to level them into fertile fields, otherwise it wouldn't be so poor." Chen Zhouheng sighed and looked at her with a clear look and said, "What if there is no soil?"

"Your word is well written. You can rely on your own ability to write epitaphs, couplets, inscriptions, letters, and charge some pen-filling fees for others." Qi Yaoyao's black and deep double slut looked at him with a charming luster.

Chen Zhou moved his throat slightly, swallowed his saliva, avoiding her sight, and was extremely uncomfortable.

Qi Yaoyao has not seen him respond for a long time, "Why do you think the official can't do it?"

"My son is not the kind of person you mentioned, and I have never done anything to write a letter." Chen immediately defended him, looking at Qi Yaoyao with an unhappy expression and said, "Qi!"

Chen Zhouheng quickly spoke, "That... it's not that I don't write. If the county magistrate writes too much, they will also accept bribes in disguise. My words are less than a thousand gold coins, and I don't have that much reputation. This is obviously wrong. If you want to collect them, it will be a disaster sooner or later."

"They gave it voluntarily!" Chen's eyes immediately turned to the crossroads of the sunken boat.

"Mom, in the lobby, people won't say that. I must have said that I forced them to give it to you, or even forced me to buy and sell it." Chen Zhouheng said with quiet and dark eyes looking at her.
