    Although they were shocked by Jia Cong's skillful and superb use of power, these students and officials did not admire him, but were slightly resistant and contemptuous.

    In this era, scholars always have a natural contempt for "turbidity".

    In their view, the true seed for reading is to read only the books of sages. After winning the first-class Jinshi in the Jinluan Palace, entering the Hanlin Academy to continue studying and observing politics, becoming the prime minister, and cultivating the aura of awe-inspiring people, that is what serious scholars should do.

    Studying power and deception is what masters, staff and even officials should do, and should not be done by innocent students.

    After Jia Qingchen became the commander of the Laoshizi Jinyi Guards, he no longer behaved like a scholar.

    After coughing twice, Meng Hao came back to his senses, looked at Jia Cong with a distant look, and said calmly: "Master Jia, the people are easy to abuse, but the people's hearts are hard to bully. Master Jia acts in this way, which is unavoidable among the scholars.  If there is no light, someone must say it with two words."

    ¡°Bold!!¡±

    ¡°Presumptuous!!¡±

    Zhan Peng and Shen Lang, who were standing next to Jia Cong, roared fiercely.

    With such ferocious aura, Meng Hao, who was facing him, was almost unsteady on his feet and looked pale.

    However, Meng Hao did not retreat and looked at Jia Cong with stubborn eyes.

    When Jia Cong saw this, a flash of surprise flashed in his eyes, and he chuckled. After waving his hands to stop Zhan Peng and Shen Lang's fierce attack, he looked at Meng Hao and said, "I thoughtit seems  There is an expert behind him. Zisi, that unlucky man just now is probably not as virtuous as before, right?"

    Meng Hao was startled when he heard this, hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Brother Zhou This is how he is usually like this, he likes to use his prestige to bully others"

    Jia Cong laughed when he heard this, his eyes dimly lit up, and said, "It's really getting more and more interesting." Seeing Meng Hao's confusion, he didn't say much and said, "Brother Zisi, you are different from Zhou Yun'an. How can you deal with Zhou Yun'an?"  An, I can only respond in the same way as I would deal with a shrew, but for you, Brother Zisi, we might as well have a debate.

    "The people are easy to abuse, but the people's hearts are hard to bully. This is a great good thing."

    ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????¡­  "

    When Meng Hao heard this, he was shocked and said hurriedly: "This is the Four-Word Jiazi! We, the Confucian scholars, should set up our minds for the heaven and the earth, establish our destiny for the people, inherit the unique knowledge for the saints, and create peace for all generations! This Four-Year Master comes from the south.  , the scholars in the south of the Yangtze River were shocked by it. If Master Jia had not repeatedly stated that these four words came from the teachings of Songchan Gong and Mr. Youmin, the name of 'Jia Zi' would have been spread all over the world!"

    Jia Cong chuckled and said: "Let's not talk about this, I am a little curious. Is Brother Zisi's family background and knowledge really the same as those of the previous people? Do you really not know what the Bai family is?" As he said, Jia Cong  Cong looked into Meng Hao's eyes sharply.

    Although Meng Hao is wearing a Confucian shirt, it is also a Confucian shirt made of the finest quality yarn. He also wears beautiful jade around his waist and wears Wen Dynasty boots on his feet. This kind of clothing is 100% from the wealthy families of Jiangnan officials.

    At his level, the truth he sees is by no means that superficial.

    Meng Hao paused when he heard the words. His eyes were no longer so stubborn. He avoided Jia Cong's gaze. After a moment of silence, he continued: "If Mr. Jia is talking about the Bai family making profits through private salt, then the student does know. But this  Not only the students know about this, but everyone in the Jiangnan officialdom and even in the imperial court is aware of it. The reason for this should not need to be elaborated by the students."

    Jia Cong nodded and said: "Yes, salt administration has been a big problem since ancient times. The salt industry is a treasure trove of gold and silver, and it is almost a business without capital. The biggest cost is actually some unreasonable expenses.  . If we only sell official salt, no salt merchant will be able to gain a foothold and will have to go bankrupt. And if it is run by the imperial court, haha, I am afraid that the annual salt tax received will be less than 30% of what it is now."

    Hearing this, Meng Hao cupped his hands and said, "My lord, you are very perceptive and what you said is true! In this case, why do you treat the Bai family so harshly? As far as the students know, although the Bai family also sells private salt, they are not rich and unkind people who only know how to make money.  Most of the Bai family's millions of wealth were donated to benefit their neighbors, benefiting all corners of the country, promoting education, and helping countless children from poor families study"

    As Meng Hao's voice became louder and louder, not to mention the students who followed him, all of them held their heads high and upright, even some of the knights in Jinyi looked ashamed, as if they had done something shameful.  The regrets are common.

    This is why Jia Cong said before that there was an expert behind this matter.

    If you are looking for some arrogant people to come forward for profit, then naturally you can't help Jia Cong.

    A single rebuke can kill the chicken and scare the monkey.

    ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Out anniversary

    They have not been polluted by officialdom and worldliness.

      What¡¯s more terrible is the land.

    He is a new party cadre who originally had the important task of clearing the land and implementing the new law.

    The original purpose of the new law was to greatly curb land annexation, but it

    Zhao Yin feels unspeakable regret and guilt in his heart, but you can¡¯t blame him!

    Although the Bai family gives him a large amount of filial piety money every year, three festivals and two lifespans are not a small amount, but he still has to pay tribute to them.

    The governor of Yangzhou is one of the most fat and incompetent people in the world, how can it be so easy to get a job?

    In addition, the family's population is increasing day by day. Not to mention the theater troupe, just the two-bedroom concubine who is newly added every year, the money is like water.

    Adding in other expenses, it¡¯s really not enough.

    We can only rely on harvesting more fields and increasing income

    One wrong step, one wrong step!

    But these difficulties cannot be told to others, and they can only sink deeper and deeper.

    To this day, I have been threatened and forced to obey.

    Zhao Yin felt great hatred in his heart, and he only hoped to settle accounts with the Bai family after getting over this difficulty!

    ¡­¡­

    The yamen servant in front of the official sedan held the avoidance flag of the prefect's yamen and used a gong to clear the way.

    Approaching Yulang Street, Zhao Yin first asked his servants to go and inquire.

    Zhao Yin was in a good mood after the servant came back after walking around and said that many students from the county school, the government school and the officials of Yangzhou Prefecture were looking for trouble with Jin Yiwei, and after he mentioned the names of several famous scholars in Yangzhou Prefecture.

    Jiangnan is a land of outstanding people, and almost every household supports scholars.

    But the quality of scholars varies, some are good and some are bad.

    There is no need to mention the bad ones. Among the good ones, there are a few people who even think that he, a serious imperial scholar, is very good and has a bright future.

    Not only his knowledge, but his character is also excellent.

    What¡¯s more important is that they all come from prominent families in the south of the Yangtze River!

    The strength behind them must not be underestimated.

    With them taking the lead, things will be a little more certain today.

    Zhao Yin felt reassured and ordered the sedan bearers to lift up the sedan again.

    ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ?????????????????????????????????? Walking all the way to the parking place of the Jinyiwei on Yulang Street, the official sedan landed on the ground, the bearer was slowly pressing down the sedan pole, and the servant lifted the sedan curtain, preparing to ask the prefect to get off the sedan.

    However, they saw ten captains in Jinyi charging towards them with evil spirits. The Yangzhou magistrate's Yamen officer was about to step forward to stop them, but was kicked to the ground.

    The leader, a man in Jinyi, walked to the official sedan, reached out and grabbed the curtain of the sedan, pulled Zhao Yin who was sitting inside out of the sedan, and knocked him to the ground.

    Then he rummaged around in his sleeve pockets and pockets, found a letter, looked at it, raised it happily and shouted to Jia Cong: "Sir, I found it!"

    Zhao Yin, who was originally furious after falling to the ground, turned pale and his whole body became cold when he saw this scene.

    ¡° Unlike Meng Hao and other official noobs, he only rushed to search people¡¯s body with clear purpose and found out the fatal letter of help. Zhao Yin knew that this damn thing was obviously a big hole!  !
