What occupations are mentioned in "the foot and teeth of the vehicle and boat shop should be killed without guilt"?
Ships rank first because in the past, whether it was ferries, fishing boats or the most common passenger ships, the charges were extremely inaccurate. Often, the price is negotiated in advance, and after the deposit is paid, the customer leaves halfway because of various problems. The most common situation is that sick businessmen leave the dock and sail away, and sometimes they often steal some luggage for their own use. And like the knife face and wonton face of the angry boat in the water margin, it is by no means a joke. Even in the decades before and after the founding of the People's Republic of China, there were similar rumors from time to time. As early as a few decades ago, domestic films described similar situations in the film.
Moreover, a relatively standard passenger ship can travel back and forth between two big cities (not a short trip by a small ferry), and it generally needs the boss and a few guys to take care of all the guys, so businessmen are generally weak. Even large businesses, if they encounter bad weather or other reasons, can't negotiate the price with the shipowner, they will unload the dock lightly or abandon the goods in the river. Well, generally speaking, not all ... more threatening.
Therefore, in the more developed areas such as the south, with the intervention of such a big intermediary as Caobang, it will be relatively more disciplined.

The car here is not a truck, but a cart. In the old society, there were no security guards, and officials rarely went out of the city. Escort agencies have no business of walking and protecting agencies. In the past, in addition to traveling with caravans, traffic was guaranteed only by carts between cities.
At that time, people who drove big cars were the same as black taxis and black minibuses more than ten years ago. They wouldn't leave until they were full. Let's just say that one or two big cars can seat four to eight people, depending on the size of the car. Sit in pairs. If the road up the mountain is too long and steep, businessmen have to come down and walk or push carts. ...
In the process of waiting for carpooling, the poor can't charter a car alone, and naturally they can't afford to live in a better inn, so they can only live in an inn or a Datong store affiliated to the car dealership. There is still the risk of property damage when you fight for a double room in a hotel. What's more, people were coming and going at that time, and a few meters long big heatable adobe sleeping platform was next to each other from left to right. You should always mind your own business. Lift the curtain with your front foot, and someone will take off your burden with your back foot.
Another is that if there is a strong man in the way, drivers generally have two choices. One is to unload the mule and horse and ride away by yourself. The other is to bow your head and squat, and erect a whip to show your identity. Most bandits walk, and those with horses don't like broken mules and broken horses, so the style of driving will generally not be hurt.
As for some coachmen. It may be the details of bandits in the garage, or it may be related to bandits. Therefore, there will be situations where you see the oil and water, pick a remote and uninhabited path, drag the merchants to the bandits and earn some tap water fees.
Take Beijing as an example. In the past, there were three main roads to Beijing. A Harqin banner transferred from Chengde to Miyun. In the past, there were few businessmen. The other two are Zhangbei to Zhangjiakou, Yanqing East yongningzhen to Xiamiyun Road in Hayes Town, and Badaling winding Beijing-Zhangjiakou Railway. But the history of the latter is very short, so there is actually only the way of the former. I remember that the Ming Tombs were to be avoided before the Republic of China ... It is rumored that Li Zicheng's road is near here.
And that is Miyun, which is the most important thing. Whether you go to Chengde or Hayes Town, there are many mountain road forks, so it is not easy to get lost unless you are an antique. Although there will be no exaggerated mountain thieves near Beijing, there are still dozens of them in groups of three or five, and no one will know where they went or where they came from when they fled to the mountains afterwards. After a few months, you can easily pick up the goods on the mountain and sell them in Hayes town.
However, in comparison, it is still a handful of horse bandits in Zhangbei who make a big noise. In the past, many grassland merchants preferred to bypass the water transport and enter Xilin Gol, and then separate the north from the south, up to Hulunbeier, Ulaanbaatar and even Daxinganling, and down to Hohhot and Bayannaoer.
Later, after the establishment of Chahar Province in the Republic of China, Zhangjiakou became the provincial capital. In addition, there are railways in Badaling and official roads in the Ming Tombs, so Zhangjiakou is prosperous. A large number of businessmen will pass through Zhangjiakou for camels and enter the customs for mules. Therefore, after the commercial population gradually became rich, the bandits and mountain thieves from Yanqing to Zhangjiakou gradually disappeared, and the bandits from Zhangbei took the lead.
During the period of War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, the Luanfeng concentrated base area established in Bai Yihua was in this section, which shows how the nearby mountainous areas are suitable for small troops to hide. (Fengning/Luanping/Miyun)

Shops are not just bartenders, but shops and hotels that open stores. In ancient times, transportation was not very convenient, and there was often no place to stay after a long journey. Occasionally there are one or two grass shops. If you want to go in for a rest and have a meal, you must weigh the price, which is often several times the ordinary price. Even today, some tourist attractions in China can find that the prices of many things inside are much higher than those outside. For example, a catty of steamed stuffed bun costs 12 yuan outside, and he sells it for 30 yuan there. Not to mention how long the steamed stuffed bun has been kept ... so Song Wu's fifteen bowls of wine are probably preserved with beef. ...
As for the inn, who cares if you are sick, convenient and rich? Nothing was thrown into the street, luggage was turned upside down, and good things were taken to the pawnshop for living allowance. Who will take care of the rest? This kind of thing can't be punished even if it is reported to the government. After all, you owe it to the store first, don't you?

Porter is a hard job. Now he is like a big worker in Sichuan, and there are coolies everywhere. He does earn hard money, but the price is reasonable.
However, after the old days, porters didn't mean those guys who loaded and unloaded goods at ports and docks. Although coolies are bitter, they generally don't oppress single businessmen in the past, and they are organized and disciplined. Only in the long journey, or hired goods, or the kind of porters who bring their own mules, is the existence that should really be killed, just like Sancho in Don Quixote.
When you meet a bold porter, if you walk with your front foot and your back foot, he will turn his head and take the goods away when you are not paying attention. In ancient times, there was no paper money, but in the old days, silver dollars were used more. Generally speaking, when traveling long distances, it costs a lot of money, and only people can resist horses, but who usually keeps a few mules and horses? therefore ...
This kind of porter is often a guest star who kills and robs goods, so a slightly older family will bring their own servants and follow their masters. Xu Xiake, a famous geographer in China, was once cheated by porters.

The word "tooth" is originally a word, which flies up and down according to the saying that lipstick is white. This kind of person is now called an intermediary, just like the intermediary now, which is too much. Often things with an original price of 45%, such as quadrangles, can be raised to 78% or even 90%. At present, if the original price of a house in Beijing is 3 million, they should sell it at least 330%, and then they will have to split the money with the owner when they come back. It can be said that they can eat both sides.
So, this YaZi really should be killed. Because after the old society, these yazi sold not only department stores and houses, but also men and women.
In addition, it is mentioned in the Water Margin that Zhang Shun is a fish whore, whose main function is to dominate the market by buying high and selling low. This situation was reported in China in 1980s and 1990s, so people who don't know the artistry business may mistakenly think that Zhang Heng is worse, but in fact, Zhang Shun is the most terrible.

In the past, the chief executive was often misunderstood as a black dog (policeman) in the old society, who did all kinds of evil. But in fact, every yamen official, including money and grain supervisor, fast-catching documents, door post mortem examiner and so on. Belongs to a humble family and should be handed down from generation to generation. This kind of person is basically bullied by a slightly prominent figure, and is generally influenced by one parent. Otherwise, as a cheap household, I have no choice but to move my family.
I go to the yamen, but I serve the word labor. Since the Ming Dynasty, this kind of family, even on weekdays, will not have a good family to marry with it, and can only settle down in some corners of the city and pass it on from generation to generation.
However, they are hateful, but most of them are because they hold certain power as humble servants and can be unscrupulous within the scope of the rules. After all, like some semi-closed doors and street beggars, they will bully them. But just like the butcher who killed pigs in the old society did not worry about eating meat, the bricklayer who built the house could think of the leader and his ability was there, and others could only envy and hate him.
In addition, because they are all in this business, they can be subrogated to each other and introduced to others. Secondly, because we can't travel freely and have no land, if a family has too many children, we can basically do some secret brokers except gangsters. The most promising thing is to be a staff officer in a large family and exploit legal loopholes.
If you really want to say it, it can be said that the nature of civil servants and lawyers is similar now.
