To be honest, sotis you can't bla the ancient generals for fostering bandits for their own gain, because even modern people can do such foolish things like killing the dog once the rabbit is caught.
What's more, this bear infestation has only been temporarily dealt with, not all the bears are dead.
Yet the village council couldn't wait to impose regulations on all hunters coming to this area, setting a single outing hourly wage of 5,759 yen, with an annual cap totaling only 2.4 million yen.
What concept does 2.4 million yen represent? Converted, it's only about 110,000 to 120,000 RMB.
This annual salary, compared to dostic prices and the dangerous work of driving away or hunting bears, is not a cost-effective job at all.
Not to ntion Japan.
What's more outrageous is that after more bears broke into houses in the village, there were still hunters who went to hunt bears without considering the reward.
anwhile, the police warned the hunters that if bullets from their hunting rifles accidentally went into furniture or walls while chasing or hunting the bears, their hunting licenses would be revoked for non-compliance.
Yes, the hunters had Japanese police supervising them during the bear hunt. But the Japanese police only supervise the hunters and don't care about anything else. Even though they carry firearms, by regulations they cannot use them to help hunters, the task of driving away bears can only be completed by the hunters themselves.
Moreover, during the mission, the hunters need to strictly follow the procedures and regulations to hunt the bears.
If there are any actions that violate the regulations, their hunting licenses will be revoked.
The actions of the local village council and police naturally caused dissatisfaction among the hunters.
Therefore, the hunters' association filed a lawsuit hoping to change the process and prevent arbitrary punishnt of hunters.
As expected, the hunters' association lost the lawsuit.
So the local hunters collectively announced that the village should handle the bears on their own, along with the police, and they would not be involved anymore.
Then, the bear infestation completely erupted. In the past two years, bear incidents have increased to about ten tis what they were four or five years ago, even leading to casualties among the police.
And so far, the official resolution from Japan for the bear infestation is to have the Self-Defense Forces hunt bears with sticks.
Yes, sticks.
Because according to regulations, the Self-Defense Forces cannot use firearms in such situations, so the only thing they can use are sticks.
Chen Yiyang finished reading the news about Japan's bear infestation, and the vehicle had already parked in front of the private art gallery Moy Hua ntioned.
After entering the exhibition hall, a middle-aged Japanese man ca over to receive Chen Yiyang and Moy Hua.
This Japanese middle-aged man first introduced so Western and local Japanese paintings and calligraphy works to Chen Yiyang, observing that Chen Yiyang didn't seem very interested.
So he mysteriously said, "Actually, today our gallery also borrowed a piece for exhibition that can be considered the top Asian art and calligraphy collection, do you want to see it?"
"The top Asian art and calligraphy work?" Chen Yiyang turned to look at this Japanese middle-aged man, "Really?"
It wasn't that he didn't trust the middle-aged man in front of him, it was just that Japanese people like to exaggerate too much.
If the sushi is well made, it's called Sushi Immortal; if they're good at table tennis, they're called the Empire's Fierce Tiger.
Though he did recognize the latter.
"Of course it's true," the Japanese middle-aged man smiled mysteriously, then continued, "Because this piece is the authentic work of the Poetry Immortal himself."
"You an, Li Bai?"
Chen Yiyang thought that even if it was a Japanese person speaking, when ntioning the term Poetry Immortal, it definitely referred to Li Bai.
"Yes." This Japanese middle-aged man made a proud invitation gesture, indicating for Chen Yiyang to follow him and take a look.
So Chen Yiyang had no choice but to take a look himself.
He hadn't really known before that Japan actually had an authentic piece by Li Bai.
That was Li Bai!
So, Chen Yiyang followed this Japanese middle-aged man to an exclusive collection room.
In the glass display case of this collection room, there was a piece of calligraphy.
The na of this calligraphy was: "Mocking Wang Liyang for Refusing to Drink," and it was signed by Li Bai.
Existing in Japan is the picture of "Mocking Wang Liyang for Refusing to Drink."
"Is this really Li Bai's authentic work?" Chen Yiyang looked at the calligraphy in front of him, still sowhat skeptical.
Because he hadn't heard of this piece before.
In fact, not to ntion the authentic works of Li Bai from the Tang Dynasty, even most of the poems Li Bai composed in his lifeti, less than one-tenth of them have survived to this day.
Yes, it's no exaggeration, just less than one-tenth.
It is said that before Li Bai died, he entrusted his manuscripts to his clan uncle Li Yangbing, who compiled them into the "Grass Hall Collection." The preface of the poems said: "Since there were events in the Central Plains, he avoided it for eight years; at that ti, his writings, nine out of ten were lost."
In other words, when Li Yangbing was compiling the "Grass Hall Collection," nine out of ten of Li Bai's poems were already lost and couldn't be found.
Even this "Grass Hall Collection," which recorded only a tenth of Li Bai's poems, was later lost and couldn't be found.
The works of Li Bai that people see now have been passed around or extracted from Tang era anthologies.
The quantity preserved is even less than that of the "Grass Hall Collection."
After all, the Tang Dynasty is really far from now, and during this period, the Central Plains suffered wars several tis, and many original manuscripts of works disappeared, relying only on the mories of later generations to be revived.
Most of the works of literati from the Tang and Song periods are not well preserved, except for Lu You.
Because Lu You's family ran a publishing house, so even though Lu You burned so of his works before the age of forty while studying the Jiangxi Poetry School, more than 9,000 pieces of drafts still survive today.
Compared with Lu You, given Li Bai's talent, he should have written more than ten thousand poems in his lifeti.
After all, Du Fu also ntioned in his poems later in life that he had written no less than ten thousand poems, but most of these ten thousand poems did not survive.
So, saying one-tenth of Li Bai's poems remain is a conservative estimate.
And the authentic works of Li Bai are even scarcer compared to his poems.
The only recognized work of Li Bai currently is the "Up the Terrace" kept in the Forbidden City.
Picture of "Up the Terrace."
"Up the Terrace" was written by Li Bai in cursive script, completed in the year 744, with a very clear origin and transmission.
During the Northern Song era, it was incorporated into the imperial collection of the Xuande Hall. It was acknowledged by the artistic Emperor Huizong Zhao Ji, who used his unique slim gold calligraphy to inscribe the title "Tang Li Bai's Up the Terrace" and wrote a long annotation at the end.
Later, when the Northern Song fell, the piece passed into the hands of Zhao ngjian, a famous painter and collector of the Southern Song, and thereafter to the hands of the powerful Pri Minister Jia Sidao of the Southern Song, and the Yuan Dynasty collector Zhang Yan respectively.
However, during the Qing Dynasty, it unfortunately fell into the hands of the well-known collector Emperor Qianlong.
So, as expected, Qianlong stamped it with a bunch of seals.
