老九来了, 老九要秀秀

My 9th discovery on words occured days ago. I may compare it with the last Chinese dynasty in two characters: it is in a more broad way as Qing dynasty acquired most territory; and it is less concret than the former 8 items, one has to be flexible to avoid being trapped. But it will not stop anyone with inquisitive mind, willing to be challenged.

My new riddle reflects this direction:
一根绳子抓壮丁,
一把银子雇佣军,
戏里戏外一布隔,
苦力赚得泪满巾.

(guess 2 Chinese words and 5 English words)
Hint: m
