Chapter 346: Putting aside extravagance and adhering to frugality, sincerity is the most important thing to save the day
The issue discussed by Zhang Juzheng and Zhu Yijun is the issue of route. There are some differences in understanding between the Ming Emperor and Yuan Fu on this issue. This difference is The problem can be big or small. If the Confucian really gets the chance, they will constantly instigate this difference into opposition.
The emperor and Yuan Fu were in conflict, which was very dangerous to the Ming Dynasty.
Zhu Yijun was finally convinced by Zhang Juzheng. Maybe Zhang Juzheng was right.
Some political ideas are very beautiful, but when they are put into practice, they are like weasels entering the chicken coop, and the ground is covered with chicken feathers.
Perhaps as Zhang Juzheng said, everything in the world is selfless and no one is selfless. At the beginning of life, everyone is selfish and everyone benefits.
Zhu Yijun suddenly thought of Wang Qian. Wang Qian never looked at money when making friends, because he knew that no one was richer and more generous than him. The emperor is the only one who has no one above himself. He can see all the mountains and small mountains at a glance and treat all the people below him equally.
Zhang Juzheng’s proposition has been logically closed. Because there is no one above oneself, everyone below oneself can be treated equally. Then the emperor can stand in a supreme position and treat state affairs relatively fairly and fairly. Then make a decision. If the emperor is stupid, because of the widespread correction power, the Ming Dynasty will not decline at an excessive speed. The regime will last for enough time, and the chance of getting a new wise king will increase. Once again, After accumulating a rich enough fortune, it slipped again.
It seems more consistent with the infinite principle of all things to treat the king and father, the king and the king separately, but in this way, how can the emperor stand in the supreme position and handle state affairs relatively fairly and justly? Woolen cloth?
On this issue, Zhang Juzheng chose to be confused because there is no better solution. As long as power is decentralized, it will inevitably be occupied by Zheshe households with more social resources. Excessive decentralization of power means that The feudal lords were separatist, and the vassal towns were in chaos.
Zhang Juzheng opposed the concept of emperors distinguishing between king and father from a practical perspective.
Zhu Yijun chose to agree with Zhang Juzheng's point of view, and the subsequent discussion was no longer so serious. The Emperor of Ming Dynasty began to pour out his bitterness, complaining full of complaints about the studies of King Lu Zhu Yiliu.
"We have beaten, scolded, and taught, but now Jiu'er is still like that. He is not good at literature and martial arts. He studies only half-heartedly and practices martial arts in a muddle-headed way. He listens to politics. We are also confused. We really don’t know what to do. "Zhu Yijun really has no good way to deal with Zhu Yixi. He can't keep staring at Zhu Yixi. As long as he relaxes his supervision a little, Zhu Yixi can always make some noise. Come.
Zhang Juzheng thought for a moment and said: "Your Majesty, I think it is right according to the principles of Hu Zhi, the censor of Guangzhou. Only good ability and good deeds can lead to conscience. If there is no good ability, there will be no good deeds. Then there will be no good deeds." He has no conscience.”
“His Majesty, Prince Lu, is very well protected. If a piece of jade is not polished, it will become useless.”
What can Zhang Juzheng say? Prince Lu only knows how to have fun. , do not want to make progress, are indolent and indolent?
So he can only say that Zhu Yixuan was well protected by the emperor. King Lu had never experienced any hardships and could not become a useful person. Even after repeated compromises, Zhang Juzheng's words were still half a sentence. talk.
The biggest problem for King Lu is that he has a biological mother who is Queen Mother Li.
Except for Zhu Yijun’s affairs in the palace, Empress Dowager Li didn’t care much about it. Empress Dowager Li was in charge of everything in the palace. Zhu Yijun was covered by such a giant Buddha, and Empress Dowager Li was very close to Zhu Yijun. Because of doting, Zhu Yixi can peck the jade twice when your majesty is not busy, but your majesty is really busy.
A loving mother often loses her sons, as has been the case since ancient times.
"We didn't expect him to become a pillar or a towering tree, but after all, he can't be an ignorant person, right?" Zhu Yijun spread his hands.
Zhang Juzheng said with a smile: "Your Majesty, just give him shade and coolness."
Zhu Yijun continued to talk for a long time. It was not until late at night that the Ming Emperor ended the day with unfinished thoughts. The performance is correct.
It’s spring again, and the imperial capital is filled with smoke and willows. Amidst the fireworks and firecrackers to bid farewell to the old and welcome the new, Ming Dynasty ushered in the New Year’s Eve of the sixth year of Wanli.
Snowflakes were floating in the sky, and children lighting firecrackers were running everywhere. Amidst the sound of firecrackers, the children who could not dodge fell into the snowdrift, causing a burst of laughter, and the mother scolded loudly, Echoing in the streets and alleys, it’s probably the New Year’s new pants, which have become extremely dirty during the fun. The vendors’ voices are louder than the angry mother. Temple fairs are a good time to sell things, and the vendors’ shouts are not. It is often highlighted because the captains and firemen of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division are patrolling around. Seeing these captains, the hawker's voice will be lowered involuntarily.
"Penglai Huang, one of your distinguished sons, there are seven distinguished guests on the fifth floor!"
Yanxing Building was also very lively, and the waiters who were soliciting customers downstairs shouted vigorously, A wealthy businessman from the Huang family in Penglai could afford eunuchs and wealthy guests who could protect the courtyard. Every time he came to Yanxing Tower, he would spend a lot of money.
Zhu Yijun's appearance could only be seen by the court officials of the Ming Dynasty every day, and even Zhang Juzheng had to take a look at Zhu Yijun, who had changed into regular clothes, let alone others.
Every time Zhu Yijun comes to join in the fun, Tishuai Zhao Mengyou is under great pressure. Fortunately, His Majesty likes to come to Yanxing Tower. This is his own territory, so the pressure from security will be much weaker.
"Husband, this is a brothel. Don't be dazzled by those warblers and swallows. It's winter. They are wearing a layer of gauze underneath. Husband, look at those legs over there that are bigger than the pillars. They are both charming foxes, and they are not afraid of freezing their legs!" After Wang Yaozhuo sat down, he teased her with a strange tone, as if he had fallen into a jealous vat.
How can a husband take his wife out to visit a brothel?
Just shopping, and taking my wife with me, it’s so simple!
"Most of them will not live to the age of Lao Han Legs." Zhu Yijun replied calmly, flowers are beautiful when they bloom, but when they fall, they fall into mud and become dust.
This woman from the brothel will not find a way out until she becomes a concubine of a wealthy family in her prime.
"Yes." Wang Yaozhuo looked at the warblers outside the wing and felt a little more sympathetic. If he had been captured by the Lu family in Shaanzhou, he would be alive or dead. explain.
"Husband, what are we doing here at Yanxing Tower?"
"Watch the excitement." Zhu Yijun whispered: "I heard that the rich in Beijing and those rich young men in Xitucheng are now If you don't play martial arts and play martial arts, you will be arrested by the Shuntian Mansion Yamen and then exiled to Yingchang. Wen Dou won't have so much to worry about."
"Wen Duo. It’s not a fight for poetry and poetry, but a fight for wealth and luxury. For a while, Zhang Juzheng specifically talked to Zhu Yijun about the power of luxury households in the Ming Dynasty, and the continuous increase and upward concentration of social wealth. It will inevitably lead to a change in customs, from simplicity to luxury, from luxury to competition for luxury, from households competing for extravagance, to extravagance before they get rich. People with lofty ideals have also seen these chaos, and are concerned about the issue of banning luxury. , there are many social discussions, and this kind of wind and public opinion cannot prevent the struggle for wealth and luxury, which ultimately leads to the widespread eagerness for quick success and quick gain and widespread moral corruption in society, that is, the collapse of etiquette,
foreign goods, leather goods, silk and satin, Food, clothing, clothing, gold and jade, jewelry, ginseng and medicine, theaters, cruise ships, wine shops, tea shops, prostitutes, etc., everything is included and included in the category of luxury.
Zhang Juzheng's words were very rude. He said to the Ming Emperor:
After Jiajing, the social atmosphere became extravagant and extravagant. Bamboo is blown, banquets and laughter last for several days. Guests must sit at their own table, and two people at each table will be married. There are countless dishes and fruits, all of which are treasures from far away places. If the dishes and fruits are cheap, they will be desecrated. There must be singing, dancing, and opera singers at each table. The winner of the singers is called a hero.
There is no ordinary person who is luxurious but not poor, and there is no official who is luxurious but can be honest. He tolerates greed and is indifferent. Recently, prosperity has been excessive and customs are bad. Go ahead and worship frugality. Sincerity is the most important thing when saving people.
But if the minister is not good enough, how can he express his gratitude to the officials? If the capital is not good, why is it the world?
When Zhang Juzheng first discussed the extravagant culture of the Ming Dynasty, it was to prevent His Majesty from following the old emperor's extravagant path. The subtext of this passage is that His Majesty cannot be frugal, so why should he blame the ministers?
Zhang Juzheng's main thing is to persuade the Lord to be frugal.
Zhang Juzheng has had enough boomerangs and doesn’t care about this anymore.
"A fight for wealth?" Wang Yaozhuo leaned on the back of his chair, looked at the emperor, and said with a smile: "In terms of wealth, is there anyone richer than Your Majesty in the world?"
Zhu Yijun shook his head and said: "There are mountains beyond the mountains, and there is a sky beyond the sky. You can't say that."
"Puzhou Wang family, your noble son is here, the plum blossoms are shining, and there are three distinguished guests on the fifth floor! "The waiter downstairs shouted again.
The noble son of the Wang family in Puzhou is naturally Wang Qian. This wealthy young man in the capital is followed by a long list of more than a dozen people. Wang Qian probably can't even name them, but when he arrives, There were only three distinguished guests on the fifth floor. Wang Qian was leading the way, followed by two wealthy young men from Shanxi merchants.
"Special Envoy to the West Legas, we have three distinguished guests on the fifth floor!" When the waiter saw Legas, he was also full of smiles. This Legas did not have much else, but he had a lot of money in his pocket. , Legas took his wife and son to Yanxing Tower to join in the fun.
"Songjiang Sun family, your noble son Yu has been humiliated, Chaimen is happy, there are four distinguished guests on the fifth floor!"
"Nantong Liu family, your noble son has been humiliated many times, and I am honored to do so. , there are three distinguished guests on the fifth floor!”
……
The rooms on the fifth floor were quickly filled up with the young masters and their attendants, and Zhu Yijun’s eyes were Looking around, few of these nobles took their wives out. The women around them were all enchanting and beautiful.
According to Feng Bao’s introduction, Wang Qian brought the famous oiran from Songjiang Prefecture, Sun Kehong’s eldest son, Sun Jinlin. He brought the red card of Hai Huafang, three to five hundred taels. Money can only meet the owner once, and the person brought by the Nantong Liu family is a famous person from Jiangnan that even Zheshe household's money can't afford.
"How did Feng Daban know the origins of these women?" Zhu Yijun was confused, how did Feng Bao know these women.
"Isn't I the flower and bird envoy? This is what I do, collecting beauties from all over the world, but His Majesty is too lazy to look at it." Feng Bao told the truth. Feng Baozhen did his job as the flower and bird envoy seriously. But there is no use for it. Your Majesty and the Queen are extremely harmonious.
“Feng! Da! Companion!” When Wang Yaozhuo heard this, his back teeth were almost broken. It was a crime worthy of death to search for flowers and willows for His Majesty!
Feng Bao turned aside in embarrassment. He couldn't say that the job of collecting beauties from all over the world was personally assigned by Queen Mother Li. Isn't this instigating the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law?
This job was really entrusted to Feng Bao by Empress Dowager Li. All the beauties in the world are to be collected by your Majesty. Your Majesty will bring whomever you like to the palace. Regardless of others, both men and women are welcome to have a child. Come out and talk about it later.
Although Empress Dowager Li did not tell the emperor and empress about this matter, she still put great pressure on the eunuchs.
Zhu Yijun patted Wang Yaozhuo's hand and said with a smile: "Madam, please be patient. They are just a bunch of vulgar fans. How can any lady be born beautiful?"
" If your husband likes it, you can take them all back. Anyway, there is no shortage of one, two, three, four or five actors and hundreds of thousands of pairs of chopsticks." Wang Yaozhuo said with a smile on his face but no trace of a smile.
Zhu Yijun asked cheerfully: "Madam, are you serious about this?"
"Husband!" Wang Yaozhuo clenched his little fists immediately.
Seeing this, Zhu Yijun laughed three times, shook his head and said, "It's just a joke."
He knows his own business well. With the strength of Liuhe's big gun, he is now facing Having one queen and two concubines is still a bit difficult. He is not a stallion from a horse farm. Zhu Yijun does not have the ability to control three thousand people every day.
The emperor originally came to Yanxing Tower to watch the excitement. Since there is excitement, it is naturally more interesting to bring close people to watch together. With his wife, naturally there are no people with long legs exposed to attract guests. The woman has come to do his business.
The main reason is that the quality of this Jingtang kiln sister is so bad that not to mention Zhu Yijun, who eats fine grains, even Zhao Laoqi, who eats coarse grains, can't even eat it.
After Wang Qian entered the door, he asked the oiran he brought to stay away from him. When he arrived at the side room, he asked the oiran to leave by himself. When the oiran left, he slammed the door angrily.
There must be singing, dancing and opera singers at each table, and the winner of the singers will be a hero.
In the first battle of Wang Qian, the actor failed to win, so he cannot be called a hero. He lost completely and completely. There is nothing that can be done about it. The wind in the capital is really too strong now. People from all over the country dare not send people to the capital. If they are caught by the Wucheng Army and Horses Division, they will be an indicator. If they get it from the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple, they can go to His Majesty to ask for merits and rewards.
Indeed, the brothel does not violate the Ming Law, but Ren Yazi’s behavior must violate the Ming Law.
The law of the Ming Dynasty clearly stipulates: Anyone who devises a strategy to lure a loved one or sells his beloved as a slave will be punished with a hundred sticks and will be exiled for three thousand miles; those who are wives, concubines and descendants will be punished with a hundred sticks and will be slaves for three years. . Therefore, those who hurt others were hanged; those who killed others were beheaded.
A man who cheats, kidnaps, buys and sells a good man into a slave or a maidservant is like a hundred sticks traveling three thousand miles.
Sold to others as wives, concubines, children and grandchildren, one hundred sticks, three years of apprenticeship, that is, three years of labor reform in Baitu Mountain.
Those who had injured others were hanged, and those who had killed others were beheaded in public.
How many of Ren Yazi’s hands are not stained with blood? It's hard to say about other places, but in Jingtang, the management is very strict now.
Jingtang Kiln Sisters have poor quality, high prices, and bad tempers. This is a common understanding. That Wan Wenqing just couldn't stand the vulgar fans like Jingtang, so he simply went to Guangzhou Shipping Company to become a A prison official, who is said to be a clerk, is accompanied by an official, who is called an official. He only has a salary but no official status. Even if he is a prison official who is neither good nor bad, Wan Wenqing will also go.
It’s okay not to wait in this capital!
Zhu Yijun was immediately amused. This courtesan actually dared to throw away the second richest young man in the capital. Is there any royal method? There is no law anymore!
Wang Qian’s father is the Minister of Punishment!
Wang Qian actually couldn’t do anything. If you lose, you lose. That’s how the capital is. Whoever comes has to lose. He sat for a while, stood up, took his left and right, and started to toast from room to room. , after losing the first battle, I had to go to another room to toast someone.
Competing for wealth and luxury, there will be punishment for losing. For the luxury households, money is not important, but face is the most important.
Wang Qian walked through seven or eight rooms and arrived at Room No. 1 in Tianzi. When he stood in front of the door, he noticed something was wrong. The other rooms were filled with obscene sounds and talk. There was a chilling air in the wing room. Before he entered the door, Wang Qian could not help but shudder. He turned his head suddenly and felt the source of the chill. A muscular man seemed to be looking at him casually.
Tiqi!
Wang Qian woke up immediately from the wine. Indeed, Tiqi, Wang Qian immediately judged the identity of the other party. It had nothing to do with the aura and eyes. Wang Qian simply knew the other party and had met him several times.
Wang Qian personally held the wine and signaled that they did not need to follow him. He walked in. As soon as the door was closed, he bowed to the ground and said obediently: "Greetings to your Majesty...Grandpa Huang, farewell, Grandpa Huang."
" Flat body, interesting, you are not surprised, he kneels when he enters, tuts, sits down and talks." Zhu Yijun looked at Wang Qian, this man is really smart.
"I haven't even gotten close to this wing, and I feel so blessed. The clouds here are rising, and there is a vague aura of a real dragon." Wang Qian sat down happily, flattering him without even writing a draft.
"Do you still know how to read Qi?" Zhu Yijun asked with a smile.
"No." Wang Qian said immediately: "I saw the Tiqi who was on guard at the door, so I learned about it."
Qi gazing and prophecy are both taboos. , if you know how to do this, you will be decapitated.
Looking at Qi, looking at the Emperor’s True Dragon Qi, is it possible that besides Your Majesty, there are others in this world who have the Emperor’s True Dragon Qi? !
"That oiran has such a bad temper, but brother Wang, we can't do anything random when it violates the laws of the Ming Dynasty. You also know that the Ming Dynasty Huidian is the president." Zhu Yijun seemed to remind Wang indifferently. Qian, what can be done and what cannot be done.
The oiran kicked out the prince. The prince held a grudge and wanted to kill the person. No matter how talented Wang Qian was, he could only die.
Wang Qian hurriedly said: "Grandpa Huang, I don't dare to say anything else. I committed such a murderous crime only if Grandpa Huang is willing to forgive me. My father is afraid that he will use that three-foot ring-shaped knife to kill him. I cut off my head to apologize, but since she rejected me, I can't let it go. The courtesan's good life is over, and I plan to send her to a woolen official factory to become a weaver. "
"Well, let's do it like this." Zhu Yijun nodded. Wang Qian's words seemed to be personal revenge, but in fact they were for protection. They were sent to the official factory. This oiran would definitely do nothing wrong. After all, the official factory is the emperor's ti Qi, Dongchang's fanzi, and the censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate all stared at him with magnifying glasses.
Wang Qian not only promised, but also gave specific solutions. This is the sign of a follow-up official.
"What is the excitement of today's scene? People from all over the world are here." Zhu Yijun asked with a smile.
Wang Qian bowed his head and said: "I don't dare to deceive Grandpa Huang. There are really a lot of good things in today's game. This time it is a singing performance. I just buy some rare treasures and foreign goods from Europe and the West. There are thirteen or four kinds of mountain products from Liaodong, sea products from Ryukyu and Luzon, and round and round purple pearls."
"Of course, there are also a group of beauties from all over the world to sell, so there are so many. People.”
The beauties of all nations are cheap, not good people. The people of Ming Dynasty have also made some changes in response to the trend of the world. You, the emperor of Ming Dynasty, have to take care of the beauties of all nations. , it’s always okay, right? According to the laws of the Ming Dynasty, although these Yi and Di are human beings, they are all lowly.
Zhu Yijun thought for a moment and then said: "Wan Dazai said that this is not an eunuch and is not allowed to enter the Ming Dynasty. Please be extremely careful when doing this business."
Dashi When people trade slaves, they are all eunuchs who are sold. Unlike the Westerners, they do it themselves, do it themselves, produce their own food, and have enough food and clothing.
The laws of the Ming Dynasty are similar. Only eunuchs can be bought and sold, but they cannot enter the four areas of the Ming Dynasty without eunuchs, which is the traditional two capitals and thirteen provinces.
The Ming Dynasty also had its own slave-catching group. As for whether they caught or bought slaves, Zhu Yijun's arms were very long overseas, and even if he could reach them, he didn't want to care.
If you don't torment the Yi and Di, you will torment the people of the Ming Dynasty. If you choose one of the two, you can only let the Zheshe households to torment the Yi and Di.
"This time the rich young man from the capital is bound to win, and those outsiders from Xitucheng are here to stop him." Wang Qian briefly explained the situation.
The luxury households in Jingtang, it is a long drought and the rain is coming, so naturally they have to find ways to replenish a batch of eye-catching things. In addition to talent and other things, they just want to buy a vase back, which is beautiful and not an eyesore.
"Go, don't let those despicable foreigners cut off your hair." Zhu Yijun waved his hand, indicating that Wang Qian could leave.
The second performance kicked off immediately. The singers, dancers and opera singers swung their waists and swung their hips vigorously, which aroused waves of applause. This was a hot show, and it was naturally deserted and could not be sold at a high price.
The hawking started soon, and at the beginning there were all kinds of rare things. After looking at them for a long time, Zhu Yijun noticed something was wrong. He looked at Feng Bao and said, "Why do we think there are so many royal treasures here?" The goods from the village? "
"Grandpa Huang, our own business, the treasures of the Huangzhuang, naturally have to be sold here." Feng Bao bowed his head and said, there are indeed goods from the Huangzhuang, such as the complete ones. Tiger skins, tiger bone wine soaked in Guojiao, palm-sized jade tablets, emerald green jade, and three-foot-high fire-like red coral are all the finest items found only in the Imperial Mansion.
Some of them were picked out by the emperor for sale, but the money collected dust anyway, so His Majesty felt familiar with them; some were copied from Zheshe households and were too expensive to be purchased. Buy, for example, the treasures copied from the Yanzhou Kong Mansion have not been sold out yet.
“The price is good.” Zhu Yijun nodded happily and said. These things are worthless if kept in the banknotes, but when they are sold, the price is very beautiful. This kind of environment and atmosphere are very good. Many things were sold at prices far exceeding their value.
The atmosphere gradually became heated, and the prices were shouted higher and higher every time. However, Zhu Yijun always felt that these wealthy young men had reservations and did not show their anger over these objects.
Soon, an extra girl was pulled onto the stage and was responsible for purchasing the singing costume. She introduced that this was Gao Liji who had transferred from the Japanese country. The Japanese pirates not only harassed the Ming Dynasty, Luzon, but also North Korea. They were obviously Japanese pirates. It was plundered from North Korea and sold to merchants of the Ming Dynasty. After several transfers, it came to Yanxing Tower.
"One thousand, two hundred silver!" A bidding voice immediately came from Wang Qian's room.
"Fifteen hundred silver!"
......
The price is soaring. As for the appearance of this Gao Liji, Zhu Yijun can only say that I feel pity for her. The wandering background story, coupled with the pitiful eyes and the very dignified facial features, are all so attractive.
"Does it look good?" Wang Yaozhuo asked in a low voice.
Zhu Yijun said very clearly: "It doesn't look good, just like firewood."
Wang Yaozhuo knew that the emperor was telling the truth. His Majesty's preferences were very clear, and he wanted small branches to bear fruit. With a gourd-shaped figure, Wang Yaozhuo was able to win the holy favor solely because of his strength!
Gao Liji sold the deal for 3,500 silver. This price made Zhu Yijun’s eyelids jump. It was very expensive and cost the Quanchu Guild Hall three years of operating expenses.
The second one is a wandering girl from Japan. Although the competition is fierce, the transaction price is only seventy-eight silver.
The industrial chain of Gaoliji is extremely mature. It was built from the end of the Sui Dynasty to the beginning of the Tang Dynasty. It has been a thousand years until the Wanli period. This is the foundation and accumulation of thousands of years. In every aspect, Gaoliji can be compared with Yangzhou Shouma. The Japanese Wandering Girls are all sold by themselves and exported to Ming Dynasty. The brand is not strong enough and the market acceptance is not high.
The price fluctuates around the value. They are all Yi Di women, and the prices are different.
All kinds of Yi and Di women were brought to the stage to buy. The price of Gao Liji was the only one, followed by the wandering girls from the Japanese country. The Orchid from the Western Regions could also be sold at a high price, while Luzon and Annan The price of the pearl divers who came here was the lowest, and the highest price in this place was ten silver coins.
“This one is a nun from Tessie!” The singer pulled a woman onto the stage and pulled back her veil, causing a flurry of discussion.
Zhu Yijun blinked and was sure that he had read correctly. It was indeed a nun from Taixi.
“When doing business in Yanxing House, we always pay attention to the authenticity of the goods. Naturally, I showed it to the old lady. It is a perfect body, a red-haired fan from thousands of miles away from overseas. Everyone can start bidding! "Singing Yi knocked the small copper bell in his hand, but he didn't shout hard. Rare things are more valuable. Such perfect red-haired women were very rare in the Ming Dynasty.
“Three thousand silver!” Wang Qian was not polite either. He mainly focused on a rich and willful man.
“Five thousand silver.” Legas’ voice was very recognizable from his Chinese.
Ligas came to this shopping event, obviously because of this red-haired woman.
The three-party war has officially begun.
I keep coughing, and I am almost coughing my lungs out. Please pay attention to protection and avoid infection. Please give me your monthly tickets, please hand over your monthly tickets! ! ! ! ! !
