Su Dongpo Huangzhou Douqi

Night drink Dongpo wakes up to get drunk, and returns like three more. Family children's breath has been thunderous. You shouldn't knock on the door, leaning on the sound of the river.

I hate this body, and when will I forget to camp? The night's wind is quiet. Xiaozhou died, and Jiang Hai sent the rest of his life.

This song "Linjiangxian · Ye Gui" was written by Su Shi in Huangzhou. At this time, Su Shi was forty -six years old and had been playing in Huangzhou for three years.

Three years ago, Su Shi degraded Huangzhou due to the Wutai Poetry Case ", and his position was" cliff -like "from the Taishou to the deputy envoy of the group. The south of the city and the bank of the Yangtze River. So far, it is an enviable river view room. However, it was a station at the time, humid and sullen, crowded. "It's clear, the wind and morning, the moonlight, the wands are walking, and the water is drunk. "

However, the beauty cannot be used as a dollar, and the river water cannot be squeezed. Although money is not a panacea, it is absolutely impossible to have no money. In the distance of the rivers and lakes, Su Shi won the first suspicious disease in the world -poor disease.

What is the cause? You don't need to take the pulse, you can know: less money.

In fact, the income of officials in the Song Dynasty was the highest in the dynasty. The officials of the Song Dynasty were divided into basic salary and additional income. The basic salary mainly included money, Luyu (grain), and clothing (clothing), which were all issued at the administrative level. How high is it? Simply put, the basic salary of officials in the Song Dynasty was higher than that of all the silver income of all the silver of the Ming Dynasty officials in one year! Is it high enough? As for the additional income part, the Beijing official is called "Tim Branch", which is equivalent to "job salary", which is much higher than the basic salary; local officials are called "vocational fields". From it to the field rent or monetization, the larger the area, the higher the income. In addition, there are various subsidies such as rice, noodles, sheep, wine, tea, charcoal, and even horses, and even enjoy error meal and beverage costs. In addition to salary, there are also annual awards. There are many names of "public money", "public money", and "supply money". Three years of suburbs have also distributed rewards for followers, and silver, clothing, horses, etc. are all available.

How many sources of income are calculated with today's prices, how much is the total? Take the county official, for example, the monthly income of a seven -product county magistrate is more than 100,000 yuan. It is a nine -quality official, which is a science -level cadre today, and the monthly income is about 50,000 to 60,000 yuan. Su Shi was in Zhizhou, Huzhou, but it was a five -product member. He earned hundreds of thousands of monthly income and absolutely high salary.

now what? The cliff -type decline of the job has brought a cliff -type decline in income, and the salary is almost neglected. The government only provides a meager physical distribution. At the beginning, only he and the eldest son, the expenses could still be peaceful. Soon, his wife and children came, and a family of twenty people in the family, with four thousand texts spending in January, was just needed. How to live?

Su Shi did not listen to Confucius' "solidarity", but tried to "fight the poor".

The first is to save money. In the letter he wrote to Qin Guan, he frankly said: "When it is yellow, he has a lot of people, with a lot of population, and he is very worried. But it is painful and frugal. First count the existing income of the family, but in fact, there is no income. It is to replace all the products sold by his wife before Beijing to be copper coins, and then divide them into twelve copies on average. At the beginning of the month, divide 4,500 money into thirty copies, and installed it separately and hung it on the beam of the room. Every morning, take one as a whole day. In order to ensure that life can live, the money every day can only be left and cannot be overdue. The balance every day is placed in a bamboo tube to deal with accidental expenses. Some scholars say this is China's earliest "family budget system". Is this really the case, I read less, I don't know. I only know that even so, the money is still not enough, and the savings at home can only maintain for one year. What to do later?

Su Shi thought of the second trick and opened the wasteland. Since there is no money to buy and eat, then plant it by yourself. After multiple applications, the local government finally agreed to approve him. The ground is outside the east gate of Huangzhou City, with a small area and 50 acres, but it is a waste slope. In the complicated eyes of literati and farmers, Su Shi took off the literati's gown, put on the farmer's short beating, picked up farmhouses, and opened wasteland land. Thinking of the fact that Bai Juyi degraded the flowers of the government in the Tang Dynasty, he simply named the land "Dongpo" and named it "Dongpo Jushi". However, planting land is really a hard work. Agriculture has been eating by the sky since ancient times. In the first year of planting, according to what he said, "The land is long for a long time to be the festival of the stroke rubble. Fed the vegetables, eaten seedlings, summer leaves, autumn food, and winter food roots, and can maintain their livelihood.

Eating vegetables every day is definitely malnourished, not to mention Su Shi is still a foodie. What should I do if I have to save money and food? Only found new ingredients and launch new dishes. Through market research, he found that Huangzhou's ingredients were rich and the price was cheap. This major discovery, Su Shi wrote a letter to share with his friends, "Pig, cattle, 獐, deer like soil, fish and crabs regardless of money", "fish and rice is quite cheap, and it is very poor." The price of cheap ingredients was found, how to make it? The local people would not do it, so they had to go to the kitchen themselves. He was really a smart person. In repeated exploration, he created a new approach and quickly became popular. For example, the famous "Dongpo meat" is a major food innovation in Huangzhou. He shared this in "Eat Pork Poems": "Huangzhou is good pork, the price is as cheap as dung. The rich refuses to eat, the poor are cooked. To make a bowl, you are full of your own monarch. "Looking at the needs of pork now, you have to say that Su Shi improved his life while changing the food habits of the Chinese people. The problem of eating is solved, and there is a problem of living! Su Shi organized a family of old and small to build five farmhouses in Dongpo Garden. On a day of snow, Huatang was completed. Su Shi was implied in the season that all the walls were coated with white and named "Xuetang". He also wrote "Snow Tang Ji" specifically for this. It seems that "Snow Tang" solves not only the housing problem of the family, but also the issue of Lotte. No wonder some people say that Su Shi is a cultural breakout in Huangzhou.

Some people say that people in hunger only have one demand for "eating", and there are countless needs after "full". For Su Shi, there is a spiritual need to be full. From another perspective, perhaps the satisfaction of poverty and hunger through mental needs. This is exactly what Su Shi's cuteness, which makes future generations admire. Pain can hit me, but it can't overwhelm me. In addition to the presence, there are poetry and distance! Su Shi is not embarrassed by the world, and the shoes of cloth mang are on top of Mo Mo. Approval of masterpieces. Just a Chibi, I visited many times, and the emotions turned into "Chibi Fu" and "Nian Nujiao Chibi", which made me wait to be leisurely so far. The "Cold Food Post", which was rated as "Third Wing in the World" in later generations, was the text that was written with feelings, and almost burned with Chai. As for the letters written to friends and friends, it is an indispensable spiritual communication. Now it seems that literary and artistic creation is a spiritual "fighting poor". What people are most afraid of is that people are poor. I dare not think about it, I dare not write, what's the point of living!

Lin Yutang said that Su Shi is an irreversible Lotte. Su Shi, who struggled with the poverty in Huangzhou, still maintained its usual optimism. However, when the night was quiet, when the person was alone, the heavenly and the man would be together. Back to the previous word "Linjiangxian", Su Shi drank in the north of the city in the east of the city and returned to the south of the city. , God and things, I can't help but fantasize about leaving the real world of chicken feathers.

After all, the workplace is not the wind and snowy moon. Although "long hate this body is not me", "this body is always not me." In the second year of writing "Linjiangxian", Su Shi stopped poverty and set off, left Huangzhou, left the Yangtze River, and continued to float in the Erhai Sea ...
