In many famous works, there is such a sentence, the old do not look at the Three Kingdoms, less do not look at the journey to the west, may be very in line with the thinking of some young people now, and this just shows that the Water Margin is a family can see, this saying proves the value of the Water Margin and the value of dissemination. However, looking at the Water Margin, there may be some doubts, and there is a scene in it that says that they are not accustomed to those corrupt officials who take bribes to squander the money at will, so they directly rob the Birthday Gang.
And many of the heroes in the Water Margin are a top-notch, famous and capable, like to do some heroic and righteous things, not accustomed to their rampage, but there is no shortage of old people who kill innocents indiscriminately, and then run to Liangshan to try to avoid their whereabouts. Song Jiang is a very serious two-faced faction inside, because he is kind on the surface and does not argue, but in fact he wants to be the leader of Liangshan, and he is hindered from maintaining his reputation, because he has always secretly made up his mind to squeeze out the leader of Liangshan, and later he slowly accumulated strength and successfully established a lot of prestige, and it can be seen from here that the good man of Liangshan does not want us to think so simple in mind and developed limbs.
However, the focus is not on Song Jiang, but on those who are full of sincerity in the true sense, and it is their help that intercepted the birthday gang and dealt a heavy blow to the government, and when it comes to this matter, we have to talk about one person, that is, Chao Gai. He was a person who went to Liangshan very early, and it was precisely because he went to Liangshan very early that it showed that he was really an elder-level figure, and in the book his ending was very miserable, that is, he was shot with an arrow, and since then he has disappeared from the sight of the Liangshan brothers. If he was still there, it would probably be him who would sit in the first chair, not Song Jiang, who was ambitious as a wolf.
To talk about the situation at that time, it can be said that it is very complicated, because there are many people in the grass, many people have fallen into the grass, burning and looting everywhere, robbery is a very common case, but Chao Gai and Wu Yong in the case of so many people protecting the birthday class, they can also rob the birthday class completely, and have not alarmed too many people, this case is sensational, some people may say that it is not robbed of a birthday gift, it should not be worth it. Of course, it is valuable, at least in the equivalent of more than 40 million personal names.
Such a huge number is only a small part of an official's birthday gift, which shows how rich they were at that time. Before the good villains did not rob the Birthday Gang, Chao Gai and Wu Yong were still very outstanding good people, but later they were bold enough to confront the officials, which also showed how tempting the Birthday Gang really was. The background occurred that Gongsun Sheng wanted to curry favor with Cai Jing, because Cai Jing was a big official, and many local officials were struggling to please him, so as to take their careers to a higher level. It's a little too much fanfare to celebrate an official's birthday, which is why they're trying to crack down on robbery, just to give them a head-on blow.
A few of them are still a bit of a brain, and they don't plan to come hard, because this action is too big and it is easy to expose themselves. I thought of a way to get them to eat the Monghan medicine and then take their things away. In a hot place, Huangnigang, it is really easy to exchange it for a large barrel of wine and large dates. So how exactly do you convert the silver of the Song Dynasty into the current money?
The Song Dynasty's consistent money wind and rain a thousand wen qian, a piece of money is a copper plate, in ancient times are strung together with hemp rope, a thousand wen is consistent money, 150,000 yuan has more than 100 million yuan, converted into the current money is more than 40 million. In the Song Dynasty, it was mainly copper coins, and at that time, a small county ordered a month's salary to be only fifteen yuan, according to some historical records, the salary of a Yipin official at that time was only three hundred yuan, and now there should be some concept of the number of birthdays.
If the money was placed in the current iron bound to allow the officials to sit on the bottom of the cell, when they brought the money to Liangshan, Wang Lun actually wanted it in his heart, but this goal was too ostentatious to bite. Lin Chong was so angry that he killed him, so that Chao Gai also smoothly became one of liangshan's heroes.
