Origin

When Yinmahe was in Mobei, it was a white market, that is, it opened during the day. After moving south, it became increasingly prosperous. At this time, it has become an all-day business. The business model of Yinmahe is similar to that of Goat Valley. Goat Valley has many places like this. They all have them, and they are bigger, more numerous, and more complete than Goat Valley.

Black Widow brought Wu Zhongyuan out for inspection mainly to show him the construction and operating results of the year of moving south. In addition to reporting on the work, there is another reason, that is, asking Wu Zhongyuan to inspect the work. It is very necessary to ask the leaders to inspect the work. Yes, if the leader does not make any criticism after the inspection, it will be regarded as acquiescing to their business model, and even if any problems occur in the future, they will not be severely held accountable.

The first place the three of them inspected was the Yihuan Market. Since Wu Dali and Black Widow belong to the top management here, they don't often show up in public, and not many people know them. Therefore, the three of them walked in the street market. It didn't attract anyone to stop and watch.

Different from the weird products at the Goat Valley Night Market, the goods sold at the Yinma River Market are mainly daily necessities, and the quantities are relatively large, including salt barrels, cloth and silk vehicles, and herds of cattle and sheep. There are already wholesale markets in later generations. In its early stages, Wu Dali did not have a corpse to eat here. Under his suggestion, the Yibao Market in Yinma River added government merchants.

The so-called official merchants are shops opened by the government. They accept everything and sell everything. In the past, there was only easy exchange, and easy exchange has limitations. The holders of two items must need each other's items before they can be easily exchanged. After the coins are exchanged, various commodities can be exchanged for coins, and then targeted purchases are made. People who come for easy exchange are often in a hurry to leave, so the goods they hold are in a hurry to sell, and they cannot sell them for a while. You can sell it to officials and merchants when you go out, and of course the price will definitely be lower. It is also the establishment of official merchants and the universal currency that enabled Yinmahe to accumulate a lot of wealth in a very short period of time. The speed of wealth accumulation can even be crazy. to describe.

As a leader, you must never be stingy in praising your subordinates. The reason why your subordinates work hard is to please their leaders. After visiting the shops and warehouses filled with government and businessmen, Wu Zhongyuan immediately issued an award, because the two of them had participated in The war on the coast of the East China Sea, and afterwards he decreed that all those who participated in the war would be rewarded with bronze crowns and thorny cloaks. The previous recipients were promoted incrementally. This time the two of them were promoted to another level, and they were rewarded with silver crowns and thorny cloaks. .

Although this kind of reward is not a real thing, it represents a great honor and is also a symbol of identity and status. They are both purple warriors, and the gold content of the solid color cloak and the thorny python cloak are completely different. This reward mechanism was created by Wu Zhongyuan. Facts have proved that this is a very clever method. It can not only stimulate fighting spirit, but also record achievements. With more and more purple warriors under his command, he has more and more things to deal with. As for the previous achievements of his subordinates, he You may gradually forget them, but as long as you see embroidered cloaks, you can remember the contributions these people have made in the past.

Smart subordinates will never hide their ugly face when faced with leadership inspections. What Black Widow is most worried about is Wu Zhongyuan's reaction and attitude towards the gray industry. She has long known that Wu Zhongyuan hates catching and selling slaves, so she canceled the job after going south. market, but brothels and gambling stalls are relatively large.

This kind of thing is not allowed in modern times, let alone in ancient times.

In fact, the Black Widow's worries are not unnecessary. Wu Zhongyuan is indeed disgusted with this kind of thing, because this kind of gray income will be criticized by others. A Holy Lord and Mingjun should not use this kind of dirty money as military expenses, but as a human being, he should not have Strictly speaking, the sponsorship Wan Shanhong gave him was not clean money in the true sense.

The more things you don't want to face, the more you have to face them bravely. In the end, Wu Zhongyuan walked into the gambling stall accompanied by the two of them. To be precise, it should be a gambling house. Different from the simple gambling stalls in Goat Valley, the gambling stalls here They are all tall wooden buildings, and they also provide simple meals.

The essence of gambling is to get something for nothing. Most people who like gambling are lucky. Wu Zhongyuan didn't know much about gambling before, but Black Widow is proficient in it and reveals the secrets. The gambling stalls in Yinma River do not do tricks, whether it is guessing dice or guessing dice. Big and small gambling stalls do not cheat, but gambling stalls will draw. The so-called draw means that when there is a tie or draw, the gambling stall wins. This is very deceiving, because so many gambling stalls are opened every day. Countless draws and draws.

In addition, gambling stalls will also charge escort fees. The winner is not necessarily a master. In case of winning too much money, the casino can send someone to escort the winner to the other party's designated location. The fee charged is the other party's winnings. One-tenth of the total amount of money.

Each gambling stall has its own observation position, which is a room where you can overlook the overall situation to prevent gamblers from cheating. Wu Zhongyuan looked down from the window and observed the more conspicuous gamblers.

The reason why gambling is liked by many people, in addition to the possibility of winning money, is that gambling can be very stressful, and tension often brings excitement, and excitement can lead to a surge of adrenaline, which makes people feel excited, and the faces of all gamblers All of them are nervous without exception, even those gamblers who pretend to be calm are actually very nervous.

Like the opening of the Hunyuan Cauldron, gambling also has a process of anticipation. This process is a short-term hope. Joy and frustration can be experienced in a short period of time. Everyone has curiosity and desire to explore the unknown. This is also somewhat Reasons why people become addicted to gambling.

While Wu Zhongyuan was observing from a high position, Black Widow and Wu Dali had been waiting nervously. Whether the gambling stall could continue to exist was only a matter of Wu Zhongyuan's thoughts.

Wu Zhongyuan knew that the two wanted to know his attitude towards this matter, but he was not in a hurry to express his position. As a person with higher education, he was very aware of the dangers of gambling, which would encourage getting something for nothing and the habit of being indolent and indolent. , because gambling makes money quickly and loses money quickly, it is difficult for people who are addicted to gambling to live a down-to-earth and hard-working life.

Second, gambling will lead to bankrupting your fortune sooner or later. There is a saying in gambling stalls that they are not afraid of you winning money, but afraid that you will not come. As long as you come often, you will definitely lose. Because the casino eats and pumps, the chance of losing is greater, and everyone wins. If you still want to win but want to make money if you lose, you will definitely lose everything in the end.

The above two major harms are only harmful to oneself. In fact, gambling not only harms oneself, but also harms others. As he saw before, using one's daughter to pay debts is just one of the phenomena. The most serious one will breed theft and robbery. The ancients said that gambling is close to theft. , raped and killed, gambled and finally had no choice but to steal and rob, which is extremely harmful to the country and others.

After sitting in the upper room for a quarter of an hour, Wu Zhongyuan stood up from his seat and walked outside the gambling building accompanied by the two of them. While walking, he made three requests. The first was to remove the shills in the gambling stalls. There are shills everywhere, and the shill's job is not to be a prankster or to pull off a trick, but to stir up the atmosphere and "lead by example" with big bets and big bets. When they see them winning money, others will envy and follow suit. In fact, the gamblers don't know. The thing is that these people are all members of the gambling stall.

Wu Zhongyuan's face was not good-looking when he made this request. Wu Dalie looked confused when he heard this. He had been at Yinma River for a long time, but he didn't know that there was a shill at the gambling table. The black widow was very frightened and uneasy. She had not told Wu Zhongyuan before that there was a shill arranged by them in the gambling stall, but Wu Zhongyuan still discovered it keenly.

The second request made by Wu Zhongyuan is to cancel the 10% rebate of the gambling stalls. The so-called rebate means that the gambling stalls will return one-tenth of the money lost by the gamblers to the gamblers. This seems to be kind on the surface, but in fact it is very cruel. Gamblers will have the idea that even if they lose everything in the end, they will still have some leftover, which will reduce their worries.

The last requirement is to hang a plaque at the door of all gambling stalls, and write a letter willing to admit defeat, reminding everyone that gambling does not necessarily lead to winning, and the chance of losing is greater.

Although the requirements were stricter, he finally decided to keep the gambling stall. He had no choice but to do so. In special times, the imperial court, which was waiting to be revitalized, needed taxes, and the army, which was fighting bloody battles, also needed rice and grain.

Then the two accompanied Wu Zhongyuan to the brothel.

There are many types of greed, lust and lust, but the biggest proportion is lack. To put it bluntly, it means not having enough to eat. In fact, most of the people who enter the brothel are businessmen from other places. At this time, there is no such convenience as modern transportation. The shepherds of Mobei are driving a herd of cattle and sheep. It takes a month or two to go to the Central Plains, and the physiological needs cannot be satisfied. It is reasonable to enter a brothel. This is the same as the modern drivers who drive large trucks and do transportation all year round like to go to roadside shops. Nine out of ten All of them will go, but the remaining one is not the one who didn’t go, but the woman who deceived herself into believing that her man was the exception.

Don’t underestimate physiological needs. This is human instinct and is a hard need second only to food and drink. Especially married people cannot live apart in two places for a long time, otherwise problems will definitely occur. In modern times, many people go abroad to work. They will find someone to partner with them abroad. This is not an isolated phenomenon, but a very common ugly behavior. The only exception is the crew. They are truly trustworthy, and the reason why they are trustworthy is not because of their self-control. But there are no women on the ship, so there is no opportunity to do bad things.

A person who usually eats sea cucumbers and abalone has no interest in potatoes and sweet potatoes. During the six months he was dragged to Xinyue Island, he resisted the huge temptation of Xinyue Fox every day. He could even resist Xinyue Fox. In the brothel The vulgar fans will naturally not take it seriously.

Brothels are an out-and-out harbor of filth and evil, and Wu Zhongyuan is very repulsive to places like this. As the saying goes, those who are close to red are red and those who are close to ink are black. Everyone will be affected by the external environment and others, and no one is exception. Not most people, but anyone!

Everyone will be subtly influenced by the external environment and others. If they are in a good environment and get along with a group of high-profile people, their character and cultivation will be improved unconsciously. If they are often in a dirty environment, they will be surrounded by They are all vulgar and ugly people, and over time, they will become like them.

It's not unreasonable for Mencius' mother to move three times. An eagle can turn into a chicken if it stays among the chickens all day long, and a chicken can spread its wings and fly if it stays with eagles every day.

Wu Zhongyuan had no intention of spending too much time in the brothel. Even if he was watching from a bird's eye view, not everything was worth seeing. Looking at some dirty things not only made his eyes dirty but also made his heart dirty.

Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly changed his mind. He was attracted by the voice coming from the next door. It was not humming, but "sincere words." Listening to the conversation, it seemed that an old madam was doing ideological work for a young woman who had not yet entered the industry.

He was very interested in this, to be precise, he was interested in the outcome. He wanted to hear what the old madam said to the woman, and also wanted to see if the woman could remain unmoved in the end...
