“姚百万”是清代清水江中下游地主木商中巧取豪夺类型的典型代表。他诬告范金谋反,因此被判充军广东,后被赦回。国家法律的统一实施,成为维护苗疆交易公平的最重要砝码。
Yaobaiwan ( a millionaire named Yao ) was a typical landlord who secured others in timber traders by force and tricks in the Qing Dynasty in the middle and lower reaches of the Qingshui River. He made up a story that Fan Jin lent the enemy money during wartime with the intention of having him investigated for criminal responsibility and a sentence to exile. But Fan Jin was soon spared. The uni- fication of imperial law implementation had become the most important way to maintain fair trade in the Miao territory.
