What is the income source of Song Jiang in Timely Rain?

Among the Liangshan heroes, Song Jiang hates most. The most incompetent is Song Jiang. It happened that this product became the boss of Liangshan, and many men addressed him as the boss. Why? It is because this product is rich.

Song Jiang himself said that his family has a lot of wealth, mainly a lot of land, which is estimated to be thousands of acres. By collecting rent, there is considerable income every year.

As the undertaker of Yuncheng County, Song Jiang is a modest scribe. I have more contacts with Jianghu people on weekdays and have handled many cases. Song Jiang is also a person who doesn't care about the rule of law. He must be helping people prove their innocence in private. It is also common for people in rivers and lakes to exchange courtesy.

As for Song Jiang's salary, compared with his expenses, it is really nothing to mention. Song Jiang is just a small official, not an official. Strictly speaking, he is not a public official. He is only the chief of staff of the county magistrate, and his salary is very small.

There is a so-called law, which is universally applicable so far, that is, "money makes the mare go." Although this statement is straightforward, it has been tested for thousands of years.

Song Jiang in the novel Water Margin was called "black and white" before his death. As a nobody who is only a "post-official" in the mainstream society, Song Jiang can win the reputation of "timely rain" in the Jianghu. After all, he still relies on "silver". If Song Jiang is poor, even if he "fights righteousness" again, he won't win such a good reputation in the Jianghu. In fact, if you look carefully, there are two words behind those who are brave, and that is ".

In the world of Liangshan, Shui Bo, you have to fight or have money, and you are willing to give it to Jianghu heroes. For example, the second castellan, Chao Gai, and the third creditor among heroes, Song Jiang. In the final analysis, it's all about "helping the righteous and helping the poor".

Song Jiang belongs to the kind of person who can't prick a chicken. Of course, this is compared with those masters in Liangshan, Shui Bo. Song Jiang's reputation in the Jianghu probably comes from "being charitable".

Among the Liangshan heroes, there are at least two other good Hanjiang rivers, which are "generous in aiding needy people and making friends with heroes in the world". The first one is Chai Jin, Little Whirlwind, and the other one is Classical, the King of Tota. But these two spend more money than Song Jiang, but their reputation is not as good as Song Jiang's. The fundamental reason is that Song Jiangbi "will spend money".

Song Jiang's "helping the poor" is generally considered as "small kindness and small benefits", but it is actually very useful. The fundamental reason is that Song Jiang adheres to the principle of "saving the poor but not saving the poor".

Therefore, looking closely at Song Jiang's charity, most of them are based on "five taels of silver" or "twelve chairs" and the principle of "timely rain" at any time, that is to say, "it's just a timely help, not a icing on the cake". Generally speaking, such charity won't cost too much money. The Song family's industry should be able to support Song Jiang's "generosity".

However, Song Jiang's money should not rely entirely on Song Jiang's father's legacy. He should have other "gray income". There is no clear plot of Song Jiang's "gray income" in the novel Water Margin. But after Song Jiang risked his life to tip off Classical and others, Classical laid a foundation in Liangshan, Shui Bo, and sent Liu Tang to Yuncheng County to find Song Jiang to pay his debts. The amount of gold is sufficient. It should be said that such a thing, Song Jianggan not only sent letters to Classical this time. If he can do it once, he can do it twice, not to mention Song Jiang.

The basic logic is probably that Song Jiang got some corresponding rewards by doing things like "suing people", "begging for mercy" and "making peace", and then Song Jiang basically used these "gray incomes" for "eating and drinking" and "being charitable".

Secretly engaging in some "graft" activities will not only gain the reputation of "fighting righteousness", but also get some gray income. Then, Song Jiang used these gray incomes and some subsidies from his rural hometown to do some "charitable acts" and "poverty alleviation", and even managed the government to provide various conveniences. Such a "virtuous circle" can ensure that this is only a company, a month's salary.

There are many local tyrants in Liangshan, such as Lu Junyi, Chai Jin, Mars and Mu Hong. But if you think about it carefully, although these people have money, they can't see how they spend it. Although Song Gongming is only a small official, he spends money like water, and all his money is spent by others, which also makes him "buy" the title of timely rain.

How much money does Song Jiang have? Let alone how much charity he usually does. But from supporting Yan Poxi, Song Jiang made a suite with a wave of his hand and prepared furniture. Then in less than half a month, Yan Poxi also has clothes, jewelry, cosmetics, and even Yan Po has many brand-name clothes. It can be seen that Song Jiang's family is still very rich, but Song Taigong and Song Qing are both farming and living a normal life. So first of all, it is ruled out that Song Jiang's money was definitely not left by Song Taigong or his ancestors.

Song Jiang is just a small official in Yuncheng County. According to the background of the Northern Song Dynasty, the annual income is several hundred taels. In this case, it is not enough to help the poor anytime and anywhere. In this case, under the premise that Song Jiang didn't win the lottery, it is very likely that he will use his official position to collect some money that he shouldn't have. First of all, the beadle Song Jiang played very well in officialdom, and no one wanted to beat him. So maybe Song Jiang actually has frequent contacts with those corrupt officials, and he knows a lot about natural officialdom. So when Song Jiang was sent to Jiangzhou, he dared to challenge Dai Zhong in front of him, and he didn't dare to give benefits to Dai Zhong. Therefore, in Song Jiang's eyes, Dai Zhong's means of asking for money is to play with the rest by himself.

Second, after settling Yan Po's mother and daughter, Yan Po also talked about the fallacy of "which cat doesn't eat fishy". The implication is that Song Jiang is an official, and he has to learn the official style well, although Song Jiang is a small official who can control a lot of oil and water. So in this way, Song Jiang's money did come, which may be problematic.

According to the tone of Shi Gong's Water Margin, one of the main reasons why Liangshan heroes gather righteousness is that there are too many corrupt officials. Since anti-corruption, Song Jiang, as a star, naturally cannot be associated with greed. Even though he is greedy, he has done a lot of things to help others with his greedy money. It can be said that you can't take it, but you can use it. Similarly, Liangshan heroes flaunt themselves as heroes, but kill innocent people many times.

So Song Jiang's wealth is basically headless. Only by using headless accounts can we reflect the mixed morality.

A journey of literature/logic, literature and history

Of course, it's definitely not money from Xuan Nv for nine days.

If you want to be a timely rain, you must have rain. What is rain? Money.

In ancient times, to have a good reputation, money was essential. A gentleman has no power for a day, and a villain has no money for a day. Before Song Jiang became a gentleman, he must have been a little husband who had no money for a day.

His reputation for timely rain is largely due to money. The first quality of a man who can be called a hero of the Water Margin is to treat money like dirt.

People who make a living like ordinary people will be looked down upon by Jianghu people: people who care so much about money are not people who do great things at first glance.

For example, tiger generals are looked down upon.

History entered the search for his teacher, met Lu, and then saw the tiger fighter selling dog skin plaster in the street.

Li Zhong once taught the stone gun and stick, and this is also his master. Lu invited Shi Jin to a restaurant for wine. When the venue selling plasters just opened, everyone gathered around. He told Lu that he and Shi Jin would go first, sell their own medicines, and come back after collecting money. Plasters are his food and clothing.

Shen disdained his nagging and said loudly, who will wait patiently for you?

Dispelling the audience gathered in Jong Li: these guys spread out with their asses between their legs, and if they don't leave, they will be beaten.

In the restaurant, he met the father and daughter of singer Jin Cuilian. Lu borrowed money from Shi Jin, gave the money to his father and daughter and promised to pay them back tomorrow. Shi Jin generously took out twelve taels of silver and said, Why don't you ask your brother to pay it back?

Jong Li touched for a long time and only took out two taels of silver. Shen Zhi looked at it and didn't ask for his money. He said: He is also a bad person.

From that moment on, Lu regarded Shi Jin as his brother, and Jong Li was hacked in his circle of friends.

Therefore, if you walk in the Jianghu in the world of water margin, you must treat money like dirt and sprinkle it like rain, in order to win respect and gain a good reputation.

Song Jiang is just a master of throwing money.

When Song Wu paid a lot of money, when Li Kui jy paid a lot of money, he could make friends with a dollar. Boss Song will give 10 dollars.

Song Jiang's good reputation in the Jianghu is largely due to money.

As a county magistrate, Song Jiang, who is not even an official, is an official at best. Where did he get so much money to buy off Jianghu heroes?

Song Jiang's official position is called Yasi, who is a sword and pencil officer in the county, not a formal official of the imperial court.

Its nature is similar to the secret of the princess.

A very important position, responsible for drafting manuscripts, reporting and issuing official documents. The necessary conditions of the company are:

Proficient in knife and pencil, proficient in official road.

It is not enough to write a good article, but also to master the twists and turns in officialdom.

Yasi is the closest person to the grandfather of the county, and also the person who can influence the judgment of the grandfather most. There is generally a Yasi at the county level, which increases the weight of Song Jiang and Yasi.

Why is Sung River an important company? Because in many cases, it is necessary to find an expert to clear the relationship, most people can't communicate directly with the experts in the county, but need to get through the middleman.

If you want to put in a good word for Song Jiang in front of the master, a person is essential, and the money given to Song Jiang is not necessarily less than that given to the princess. This is one of Kursaburo's sources of income.

Another source of income comes from Jianghu heroes.

This position of Yasi in Sung River is very convenient to solve problems for Jianghu heroes. All Jianghu heroes are not like Jong Li.

There are many rich people in the Jianghu, and these rich people don't care much about money.

Most of the richest people get rich by doing shady business, and sometimes they fall into the hands of butlers. At this time, Song Jiang bravely killed the enemy and helped them out. The richest man is grateful to Boss Song, and naturally he is very rich.

The most important thing for the very rich is money. It's gold and silver at hand, and it's not enough for Song Jiang to take it or not.

Probably this kind of income is much more than Song Jiang's salary.

Song Jianggan's skillful help to Classical seems to prove that he must have done such a thing before.

When Song Jiang was a pawn, his income was about three big pieces, and his salary remained basically the same. If the other two are well managed, he can also ensure that financial resources are rolling in.

Looking at the various black belly operations behind Song Jiang's Liang Shan, we can see that he is proficient in the official road, and he plays these four words very smoothly.

Text: Xue Bai pao

Song Jiang was dubbed "timely rain" in Water Margin. Before going to Liangshan, he worked as a small official in the county government. I usually like to make friends from all directions, and I am generous and won the reputation of "timely rain". Song Jiang is just a small official in the lower middle class of yamen. He has a small official and little money. Besides, his ancestors did not leave much property. So, why is he so rich and so generous in helping people in need everywhere? The author believes that this black man has his own unique way of collecting money. Let's analyze one and two.

First of all, Song Jiang is the escort of the county government. Although he has a public office, he is a small official with a very low level. His salary is "only 35 taels of silver a month", which is enough to satisfy food and clothing, but it can't meet his requirement of "trying to support" his friends. This is only a small part of income.

Secondly, Song Jiang's father, Song Taigong, is still capable. He should be a rich man with many acres of fertile land at home. The imperial court sent people to Songjiazhuang twice to capture Song Jiang. Song Taigong arranged for wine, food and silver to reward the public, and also arranged for Song Jiang to be sent to Jiangzhou after his first escape to spend money to dredge the relationship. How can ordinary poor families have the money and the ability to handle this? Therefore, Song Taigong should be well-run and well-off, which also allows Song Jiang not to take care of his family. Instead, he needs to lend a helping hand to his father and has some capital supporters who generously support the poor. Therefore, Saburo can be regarded as an early model of "NEET". This is also part of Song Jiang's income.

Finally, talk about the main ways of Song Jiang's income.

Although Song Jiang is a small official, he is a "capable official". He is like a duck to water in officialdom and does whatever he wants. Even if the other party commits a "heinous crime", it can turn the tide and turn the corner.

Song Jianggang appeared in the book, because he reported a letter to Classical and got a gold bar. So it is easy for Song Jiang to make money. Because of the true identity of Song Jiang, it is about equivalent to the director of the county government office now. This is the work of connecting the two sides, and the county magistrate usually entrusts him with handling large and small things. And LeiHeng that's equivalent to the county public security bureau director of the old man, they are colleagues, and good friends wearing a pair of pants.

Therefore, Song Jiang even dared to shield the suspect in the case supervised by Cai Taishi himself. What's more, he is very close to those robbers and murderers.

Song Jiang can not only become one with the underworld brothers, but also make a fortune in the dark officialdom where corrupt officials are everywhere, and collude with corrupt officials to take bribes and ask for bribes. "In less than half a month, Yan Poxi was bejeweled and bejeweled." Keep a mistress and give money to people you don't know. These daily expenses of eating, drinking, wearing and welcoming guests all run through Song Jiang's considerable gray income.

To sum up, the author thinks that Song Jiang's income comes from his salary and family, and the main source is the gray income obtained by taking advantage of his work. Song Jiang, there are fewer people in the open, but more money in the dark. It seems to be a generous "timely rain", but in fact it is a corrupt and unjust man in black!

It's a little long If the original can be patient, don't jump over and curse after reading it. To put it simply, Song Jiang is a person who "exchanges information for money". He is almost the granddaddy of Yu Zecheng and Xie Ruolin.

Sung River is the undertaker of Yuncheng County, not a civil servant, but it is a solid career establishment, although on the surface it is only responsible for handling tax collection or prison litigation documents.

However, the Water Margin has a problem, that is, it exaggerates its status in disguise.

For example, Wu Yong was just a private school teacher, but he was called a "professor", while Classical was just an inspector in Dongxi Village, but he was called "Bao Zheng". These are all suspected of exaggerating responsibilities. This should be related to the background of Shi Naian in the late Yuan Dynasty and early Ming Dynasty, so I won't go into details here.

Although Song Jiang is called Yasi, in fact, Yasi should be at the state level in the Song Dynasty, so Song Jiang is essentially an official document.

In essence, he can leapfrog and master some core secrets of the county. In fact, he doesn't have any "real power" at hand, not even classical, not to mention the police chief Lei Heng.

But his position is very special, because according to the Song Law, as long as he worked for several years without any mistakes and was appreciated by the competent leaders, he could directly enter the civil service.

So this explains why Song Jiang is so willing to "be a good person", because it is to buy fame and earn achievements.

But Song Jiang's position does not produce direct benefits in essence.

Fortunately, he is the son of the landlord, Song Taigong has a manor, and his family has a lot of fixed income. It is also because of Song Jiang that his family has less taxes, money and food than others. Because Song Jiang can do paperwork, at least he was a scholar before, and the treatment of a scholar is not detailed, not to mention that Song Jiang's position can at least avoid many unnecessary poor taxes.

This also makes the Songtai guild not stingy with its investment in Sung River, continue to climb up and spend some money, which doesn't matter.

But Song Jiang's real economic source is really not on this basis. To put it bluntly, the output of Songjiazhuang, the most important thing is to feed a family and prepare for the unexpected.

In fact, Song Jiang gave his life to inform Classical, which showed the real source of the money that Song Jiang threw out, and he didn't feel bad at all.

Song Jiang is a person who regards "loyalty" as "means" and will naturally use "means" to earn "loyalty". Song Jiang's nickname is "Timely Rain" or "Hu". The point is that the money is spent artistically. The so-called emergency does not save the poor. Usually 3520, 1220 is thrown out, and it never hurts. These are all things that you can become famous with a little money and earn a lot with a little money.

Those old women and local ruffians asked Song Jiang for money, but Song Jiang never vetoed it, but he never gave it at that time. Later Jiangzhou was stabbed, and Li Kui jy directly robbed him. If he doesn't give it, he will call. Song Jiang resolutely refused to give it. However, when I went back and listened to the introduction of General Dai, I learned that Li Kui jy wanted money to turn over books, and immediately took out 10 as a gift. Saving Yan Poxi is also an emergency.

But saving Chao Gai is definitely not for "loyalty", not to buy fame, but to save yourself in essence.

Song Jiang's position, he can get information in advance than anyone else, even before the county grandfather knows, as long as Song Jiang is willing.

Therefore, Song Jiang was the first person to get the news when the document of arresting Chao Gai arrived in Yuncheng County. In fact, he can choose not to tell Classical, and no one will accuse him anyway. Anyway, he is just a document, and people don't need him to catch him, so naturally he didn't offend anyone.

But why did Sung River become frightened to disgrace? Because he, Lei Heng and Chao Gai are a community of interests in Yuncheng.

Classical himself owns a manor and is a rich man. But at the same time, he is also the guardian of Dongxi Village. The key is that once hooligans and robbers have a way to make a fortune, they all come to Classical. Therefore, Classical is a black-and-white person. This personal identity is more suitable for realizing interests.

And Lei Heng came to Dongxi Village, eating and drinking is not classical, and he had to take money with him when he left. Why is classical giving so happy? And Lei Heng take so at ease? Because in terms of working relationship, Lei Heng is actually one of the bosses of classical multi-head leadership. He not only intimidated the classic works, but also sheltered them. That is, the controller of interest realization.

And once it comes to prison cases, people who send documents have to go through Song Jiang's hand; Come back to the team to summarize the case and report it upwards, and also go through Song Jiang's hand. Song Jiang was not the leader of Lei Heng and Classical, but he intimidated them. The key is that sung river hasn't asked for their position yet. Such a person is the top of the pyramid of this relationship.

So put this pattern in "Latency", Song Jiang is like Yu Zecheng, he is confidential; Lei Heng is like Li Ya of the action team; Classical is Long Er (underworld boss, Yu Zecheng's informant).

It's just that the relationship between them is not as stiff as in Latency, but the cooperation of iron and porcelain. And a Yuncheng county, a sung river and Lei Heng, but there are countless dongxi village, countless classical, through the money to pay tribute, so sung river is not short of money.

However, due to this partial wealth, after all, it is not serious money, so Song Jiang's sense of crisis is still relatively large. He keeps wasting money and making friends with powerful people in order to find more possible future paths for himself.

So after reading so much nonsense, you should know exactly where Song Jiang's money came from, right?

Text/fried rice perspective

Although Song Jiang is not a big landlord, he has a big landlord's father.

This is Rainbow Jianlin trying to make money and spending money carefully, but Master Sicong need not be so stingy.

This is his first source of property.

He has a second source of property. He is the undertaker of Yuncheng County and a powerful figure in the judicial system. Don't you usually accept a little? Everyone accepts him, but not everyone? Is he still hanging out?

There is also a third source of property. For example, if he tipped off Classical, didn't Liu Tang reward him with gold? This kind of gold is too hot for him to accept, but what about the gold that is not too hot? Classical doesn't have money dealings with him at ordinary times?

Before he was in America, he helped all hooligans. The hooligans get along well. Can you thank him?

Song Jiang also has nothing to spend money on, and he doesn't care about industry or getting married. These two most expensive places are saved, and the money is reserved for sponsoring the activities of the river's lake ronin.

This money can't compare with Chai Jin, but Song Jiang is good at spending money, and it is everywhere. No rain means drought, heavy rain means waterlogging, and timely rain means timely.

A family statement should be just a joke.

Song Jiang is a literary figure in Water Margin. Small officials in Yuncheng are generous. When you ask where the money comes from, you can't delve into it. Just to shape Song Jiang's Jianghu image. If you are stingy, how do you know that it is timely rain in Shandong when you arrive in Jiangzhou? At that time, there were no newspapers, radio, television and VoIP today. You should be famous for his generosity and Jianghu fame. Why do people in the Jianghu call you Big Brother? This is just like the chivalrous man in the martial arts novels, how fierce he is, killing him with one hand! You have to ask how you have such great strength.

In order to fulfill the rationality of Song Jiang's characters, we should not speculate boldly. Song Jiang is the director of the county government office, and he didn't take much money on the payroll. But he has a gray income. County officials are all outsiders sent by the emperor. Who can handle this case on the job, and can't rely on local strongmen? Song Jiang can help people eliminate disasters, collect money and earn personal feelings. Song Jiang is an absolute big shot in Yuncheng. Conflicts such as lawsuits, business disputes and fights must be inseparable from his coming forward, working for others and receiving some thank-you gifts. There must be many. In character design, Song Jiang is not greedy for money, but others will definitely reward him. So Song Jiang often has some gray income, and his salary is basically unchanged?

Although the Songjiangs are farmers, they are definitely big landlords. From Songjiazhuangyuan, Song Taigong, these names are not small landlords. A thousand acres of land. I remember that in the past seven years, when I commented on the Water Margin and criticized Song Jiang, I said that "Song Jiang is a big landlord, bent on surrendering and wooing", and there are mines at home and puffed up outside. Generosity is natural.

I think most of Song Jiang's wealth comes from his family.

According to this book, families in Song Gongming should be relatively well off. If I am right, he should be the head of the family. One is that my father is old, and the other is that my brother doesn't seem to have seen much of the world, but Song Jiang is different. He is not only a policeman of the county government, but also a world famous person. His generosity, generosity, Song Gongming, timely rain, and Saburo have long been famous.

On the one hand, he is a county policeman and has some official income. On the other hand, he is in charge of the financial power of the Song family. There are thousands of acres of grain fields, and Zhuang Mine has investment. Only in this way can he support those righteous men and brothers in the Jianghu. So most of Song Jiang's income still comes from his relatively wealthy family.

One: There was a saying in China's ancient feudal society that "the imperial power did not go down to the county level", which meant that the central government could only manage the county level at most. Officials and county officials are appointed and removed by the central government, while officials have no rank, mostly local people who assist the county magistrate in the county government. Iron collectors and flowing soldiers, many county magistrates are mixed qualifications. As long as they can do things, most people turn a blind eye, which is roughly what this means. Song Jiang belongs to this kind of official. Although his position is not big, he is familiar with the local form. He often receives documents, goes through the back door, and sends a message from time to time. Someone will take care of it.

Two: There is a saying that a strong Han flourished in the Tang Dynasty and was rich in Song Dynasty. Although the military strength of the Song Dynasty was insufficient, it could not resist the wealth of others. The legal income of officials is relatively better than that of other dynasties.

Three: Song Jiang's father still has some money. From Songjiazhuangyuan to Song Taigong, he was not a small landlord.

Four: Song Jiang didn't buy himself any real estate or land before, and all the money he saved did good deeds.

The reason is that the legal income is not enough, and the illegal income is put together. If you can get along well in the county government, you must have two brushes.
