1606 The Snitch's Tale
"The thief pretended to be knocking on the drum to collect rags. This is just a way for him to approach the concubines in the inner hut. This kid has other tricks..."
"The concubines of the big family don't understand the real price of those antiques at all, or it means that they know it's very valuable, but she will sell it for her own selfish interests! For example, if you buy a Xuande furnace in the Liulichang, you will never have a chance to pay a thousand taels of silver, but in the inner house, you can buy it with two or three hundred taels!"
"She still wants to sell it even though she knows that she is cheap. It is because the Xuande furnace is placed in the warehouse, which is the common property of the big family, and it turns into two hundred taels of silver, which is her own private money!"
"Look, isn't this the conflict between justice and selfish interests that the Prime Minister often calls?"
Ryuma Sakamoto saw that Zai Jun had stopped sobbing, and he knew that this true story had attracted him.
"That thief made a lot of money quickly with such a trick. Now I see if this thief is equivalent to those Rakshasa ghosts? And does that concubine who steals the finances of the Duke look like Yishan and Tepuxin?"
"The story is not over yet. Your Majesty, please continue to listen!"
"The way the thief attracts these customers is not just to sell stolen goods, he has another trick! In his package, there are always some out-of-print and rare versions of the erotic painting album!"
"Haha, your majesty, don't disbelief, this is true. He just brought these things to business... After being secretly taken into the inner house or woodshed by the little maid and the old mother, first look at the goods, and then discuss the prices. If they are all suitable, then make a deal!"
"After the transaction is completed, the thief will show the customers the benefits, that is, those rare versions of the erotic pictures! You can't let the other party see too much, just two or three pages at a time, and you will immediately receive it in your arms after reading it. Want to see the one behind? Then wait for the next time to trade..."
Zai Chun was stunned when he heard this, "Ah? Is this still possible! How can this be... **Nian Wei, this is illegal!"
"Hey... don't worry about whether you violate the law or not. First of all, this trick works! Because the concubine must serve the master with sex, some of the skills in sexual intercourse are also one of the colors! The thief's erotic palaces are out of print, and many tricks of concubines have never seen before, so they are attracted by it!"
"On the one hand, she also wants to see these things, and on the other hand, she can learn a lot of new bed skills that can be used to please men!"
"After a few transactions, the thieves became familiar with these inner sects. The thieves who practiced martial arts since childhood have good physical fitness and also looked good. After a few moments, they became traitors and got together. This is a natural thing!"
"Of course there are some women who can't let go, and they don't let them get started, so that's easy to do! The thief tore off the hypocritical mask and directly threatened to make everything public, spreading the news of women stealing things and watching the erotic palace privately throughout Sijiu City... The guilty woman was stunned now and could only let the other party do whatever she wanted!"
"Acquaintance is addictive. After a while, it's like a gangster who is sucking oil, and this woman becomes the eyeliner of the thief, and all the secrets of the big family are exposed!"
Ryuma Sakamoto smiled, "Listen to the little ghost of Mizuho, the thief was the most prosperous life she had under her men back then. She made money and didn't have to fight to kill her. The information she handed over was the most! It was a great harvest of wealth, sex, fame and fortune!"
Zaichun couldn't help swallowing, "So that's it! The master meant that Yishan, Tepxin and others were the same as the threatened concubine? The routine used by the thief was the same as the Rakshasa ghost?"
"What do you think?" The monk Long Shi shrugged. "Yishan and Tepxin also want to be favored by the court. It's like a concubine seducing the master. It is undoubtedly a tragic thing for the ministers who have no favored him! The concubine uses sex, while Yishan and others can only use money!"
"The smuggling network covering the entire Heilongjiang River, Yishan and Tepxin are just small roles in the front desk. The profit they can get is only a small part of it, and the big head is taken away by the capital. It is a huge community of interests, connected together, you have me and I have you."
"The Rakshasa ghost just understands the psychology of these people and makes black money with you. In the end, he has to collect the handles of these people. At the critical moment, this is the poison-tempered dagger that can be seen in the picture-finding dagger!"
Zai Chun tilted his head and suddenly asked, "Since they are all a community of interests, what threats are Yishan afraid of? Just fight with the Rakshasa ghost! When the Rakshasa ghosts send black materials to the court, the uncles of Wang will also protect him because they are an interest group?"
"What are Yishan afraid of? According to you, he should not be afraid of threats! Because the mother and the emperor knew that Yishan was doing business behind his back, they all agreed that why Yishan did not dare to resist in the end? Why did he still accept the threat?"
Zaichun is indeed born with intelligence and can be keenly aware of any flaws.
"Yes, this is indeed an unreasonable point. According to the saying, Yishan should not be afraid of the Rakshasa ghost threatening him. Isn't it just a crime of smuggling? In the Qing Dynasty, this is not a crime of death..."
"In fact, the court finally retreated and worried about two points! The first is internal and external troubles, because the timing of Tsarist Russia's offensive choice was very vicious, the Taiping Army and the Hunan Army were stalemate, and the Jiangnan Camp, the last warable force of the Manchus in Jiangnan, was also broken. In addition, the British and French coalition forces rushed all the way from Guangzhou, and the court could not hold on anymore!"
"And the second one...then it is hidden very deeply. I didn't know it before. It was not until the Prime Minister finally solved my doubts that I understood the trick here! The following words are the prime minister's original words. I will only repeat them, not be responsible for explaining them!"
"Looking at the history of China, there are only two dynasties where foreign races settled in the Central Plains and formed a unified country, one is the Yuan Dynasty and the other is the Qing Dynasty!"
"And history has proved that the Qing Dynasty's rule over the Central Plains was much more stable than that of the Yuan Dynasty, and its country was longer. The reasons here are very complicated. The most critical point is the result of the bondage of the foreign power and the Confucian culture!"
"Why did the Qing Dynasty get the support of Confucian scholars in the world and thus seize the throne of the country as a foreign race? First of all, the Qing Dynasty was willing to form an alliance with the Confucian scholar group, that is, the Han landlord class, to jointly govern the world, and of course it was also the benefits brought by sharing the world together!"
"As an alliance, and a profit is equal, this is just the first step, and the other step of the Qing Dynasty was more clever, which was to use their martial arts to make up for the weakened martial spirit in the Central Plains! And the Confucian literature is also edifying a branch of the barbarians. This is a twin tree that complements cultures, or is bound together with each other!"
Note: The story of playing small drums and collecting antiques and erotic pictures in the article was not fabricated by Xinjing. This is a real profession in the late Qing Dynasty. There are indeed some cultural relics dealers who use the form of beating small drums to collect antiques from wealthy families. They really secretly brought a erotic picture for customers to show them.
This profession also existed in the Republic of China and did not gradually disappear after the founding of New China.
