At the Beginning, I Scolded the Fairy Gate, I Really Want to Die

For a long time, Cao Meng couldn't understand a problem, that is, Ye Ning was young and could not have any experience. Most of the time, he was still studying and examining the imperial examination. After the imperial examination, he became an official again.

It stands to reason that even if a person like him is not ignorant, it is absolutely impossible to have any insight.

However, since his debut, Ye Ning has been repeatedly astonishing. In the past, people were convinced by his character, but now he has to write a blessing on his ability to manage politics.

I really want to open his head to see what is in it.

Is there really anyone in this world who knows it by birth?

Chen Ran said casually, but Cao Meng listened not casually at all.

Everything that Chen Ran said, to his ears, was full of excitement.

This is the New Deal!

A huge one has become the ruling philosophy of the system, and what he sees so far is only the tip of the iceberg.

"I also have a problem here."

After thinking deeply, Zhu Yawen said with cupped hands.

"Let's talk about it.

Chen Ran's talk was strong, but he did not refuse.

"What I want to ask is very simple. Generally speaking, when a small official goes to the countryside, he is often hostile by the people. , Why is it so loved by the people?"

This is something Zhu Yawen didn't understand.

He could see that the people of Xiaowang Village did not have the miserable scene of reconstruction and inability to survive in the post-disaster reconstruction that he imagined, but he could also see that although the people were not so miserable, they were far from being mentioned. rich.

This can be seen in their clothes.

But that's it, they still brought hot meals to Chen Ran, and most importantly, he saw clearly that the people who sent them were all rice white noodles, eggs, and even broth. For the people, it is an extremely luxurious thing.

He would only be willing to enjoy it at the time of the New Year's Day, but now, it is incredible that he is prepared for a group of soldiers who have no relatives and no reason.

Because deep in his heart, there is always a thought, that is, the common people, like the small officials, are actually cunning.

Yes, exactly.

Poor mountains and rivers produce swordsmen. The poorer the "three-seven-seven" area, the easier it is for those cunning people to appear. This is not his nonsense, but the experience he has summed up since he has been in power for many years.

But why does it show a different style here?

"I think you want to ask something, this question is very simple." Chen Ran smiled and said: "It's very simple, just compare your heart to your heart."

"Compare your heart to your heart?"

"It is precisely that in the past, small officials went to the countryside to rush grain, collect taxes, and catch strong men. In the eyes of the people, they are villains and the culprit that prevents them from living. Therefore, they hate them very much, but I Waiting for the difference, I was ordered by the magistrate to help them. We distributed farm tools for them for free, and we also brought cattle

With pack horses, when we are free, we will work for them and fetch water for them

"what?"

Cao Meng and Zhu Yawen looked at each other, and they both saw the incredible of each other.

They knew that Chen Ran was here to help the people, but they didn't expect that he actually did so many things.

And this is not over yet.

Chen Ran continued.

"In fact, long before I came, several groups of people from other working groups had already arrived. When they first came, the people were extremely wary of them, but they used own actions to dispel the people's guard. You have also seen in my heart, Xiaowang Village is a mountain village located on a mountainside. The road is rugged and it is difficult to get water, so it is the earliest

The first thing that the working group that came to do was to build a channel to draw water from the mountain, leading directly to Xiaowang Village; the working group that came later brought a lot of cement, paved the way for the people, and solved the rugged road. The problem, the working group after that came to carry out a literacy operation, so that many adults in the village would write their own names, and

Successfully recorded the students' school status. In half a month, they will be enrolled, and the school will be built not far down the mountain."

"People's hearts are long. The working groups before me used own actions to knock open the hearts of the people little by little, and let them agree, and when I came, they got the way of the people. welcome."

"It's not because of how well I have done it, but because everyone is working hard to do own things. It is impossible for the common people to hate people who are dedicated to their good. Moreover, it is precisely because they have experienced the suffering years before. They will cherish the current wonderful life even more. Therefore, their attitude towards us is well understood."

Hearing this speech, Zhu Yawen's expression was dull, and for a while, he was unable to speak.

There is a saying that the freezing of three feet is not a day's cold.

It is not a day's work to move someone.

However, the so-called "working groups" used their own practical actions to melt the ice in the hearts of the people little by little, making the people agree with them like never before.

It is conceivable that in this case, no matter what the small official does, it can go smoothly.

Because the people have regarded them as relatives and have a very strong trust in them.

Cao Meng was a little numb by the shock. He was very interested in the so-called working group and asked specifically.

"What the hell is the working group in your mouth? How often do they come to Xiaowang Village? When they come, what is it for?"

Chen Ran explained patiently.

"The working group is just a temporary work team, which is a special task. For example, if there is an accident in a certain place, a working group will be established immediately to deal with this matter. A working group like ours is specifically aimed at Farmers, when we help the people solve the farming problem, we will disband on the spot.

Depending on the situation, if Xiaowang Village has no difficulties, there is no need to join the working group, but every once in a while, there will be small officials who come to Xiaowang Village specifically. On the one hand, it was also announcing the latest policies issued by the magistrate and Ye Master.

Cao Meng nodded.

This is not difficult to understand. The working group is actually similar to imperial envoys. If something goes wrong, it can go out with a mission specifically to solve the problem.

It's just that the working group's authority is countless times smaller than that of imperial envoys, and everything it does is small.

Zhu Yawen was born with curiosity.

"Every once in a while, small officials will go to each village to announce the government's policies. Is this necessary?"

In Confucianism, the Xiansheng once said that the people can be guided by it, but cannot be known by the people.

This is actually a policy of fooling the people.

In fact, this is not a minority thought, but a mainstream thought. Many people think that ordinary people don't need to know too much, they just need to obey.

If you know too much, your mind will get mixed up, and once your mind gets mixed up, it's easy to get into trouble.

How to say the above and how to do the following, this is the truth.

But when Ye Ning came this way, didn't it completely subvert it?

Chen Ran said with awe-inspiring expression.

"Don't dare to talk nonsense. This arrangement was made by Master Ye himself. There is absolutely nothing wrong with what he said. Everyone in the world should follow it unconditionally!"

Obviously, Chen Ran has also blindly worshipped Ye Ning.

This makes the two of them somewhat embarrassed.

They admire and admire Ye Ning at most, but they have not reached the level of admiration, so they can't understand or agree with it.

If Ye Ning says, we believe in what, then if he asks me, Wei Guo to surrender directly, then I have to do the same?

How can this be?

So neither of them spoke.

Chen Ran continued.

"Master Ye said that most of the deception in this world is done by people who know more and deceive people who don't know. Therefore, if you want to eliminate this problem fundamentally, then you must let the people know how to know. Is there a number? Naturally, I need to wait and work hard to let the people know how much food they should pay in a year, and what blessings the elderly can enjoy

All of these things are closely related. Once they know it, if the people below want to deceive, it will be impossible. "

Hearing this, Cao Meng became interested.

"But what if the young official who came to read the announcement deliberately didn't take it seriously?"

Chen Ran laughed twice and said. ,

"How can this be improper? Every time there is a new policy, the people in the village must be summoned to read it out at least three times. Sign and draw, if you can’t get the signatures of all the people, then the errand will not be considered complete, so every time the little official who comes, dare not

Neglect this matter.

Zhu Yawen's eyes lit up.

"This is a good way, so how did the people react?"

Chen Ran said.

"In the beginning, the people didn't take it seriously. After all, their knowledge is still a little shallow, and they don't understand these things. They just half understand and listen to them, and they are confused, but it didn't take long for them to discover these policies. It has a lot to do with them. For example, Lord Ye stipulates that all elderly people over sixty years old will be celebrated on New Year's Day.

Rice, noodles and meat will be distributed to them. Those who are older, the local parents and officials will even come to visit in person. , Don’t worry, you can also apply for poverty subsidies.

In 1970, the idlers in the village can dare to go to work. You must know that the jobs in the general county are three meals a day, and the pay is high."

"Over time, the people discovered that these policies were actually related to all aspects of their affairs, so they didn't dare to neglect anymore. Every time a small official came, the people were extremely active and had to figure it out thoroughly.

"This is also the reason why Ye Master organizes literacy activities on a regular basis. It is to make people in the village more or less able to understand some words, so that they can have a wider vision and have some understanding when meeting young officials reading policies. , So as not to blacken my eyes."

Chen Ran said too much and was a little thirsty.

He took out a kettle from the side and took a few sips.

But the two were plunged into contemplation again.

The two of them are not simple. One is King Wei and the other is Shangqing of the State of Wei. Whether it is ability or status, it is the kind that has no choice.

But today, in front of a small official, like a student, every time the other party says a few words, he has to be silent for a period of time to digest.

But this is obviously not how clever Chen Ran is.

He is just a small official who is loyal to his duties. The real wisdom is Ye Ning, whom he admires so much.

Ye Ning can not only control the general direction, but also pay attention to these details.

They don't know the sentence that details determine success or failure, but at this moment they have a similar sentiment.

The small officials are like this, the people are like this, how can the state not prosper?

On this barren land, the heavens really changed completely.

After Chen Ran finished drinking the water, he handed the kettle to the two of them.

"Maybe you two are thirsty. Why don't you drink two sips? It's all cold water. Drink it with confidence.

How could Cao Meng drank the water someone else had drunk, and was about to refuse, but he was taken aback when he heard what Chen said.

"Cold water?"

Chen Ran grinned and said proudly.

"This is also the arrangement of our Master Ye. He said that in the cold water, there are microorganisms that we can't see. These microorganisms are the source of sickness. Therefore, for the sake of good health, everyone is encouraged to drink hot water. The water in my kettle boiled first and then cooled down again."

When Cao Meng heard this, he only found it absurd, but he couldn't say it was nonsense in front of Chen Ran, but he also expressed his own unbelief.

"How is this possible? I have been drinking cold water since I was a child, but I have never been sick."

Chen Ran looked at Cao Meng and said.

"Your Excellency should be a Practitioner."

Cao Meng nodded.

Not only is he a Practitioner, but he is also very strong, and he has reached the level of Grand Great Master.

"That's right. Practitioner has inner energy, and practitioner has Spirit Power. It is a scholar who also has cultural energy in his body. But ordinary people have nothing. The most weak house is that they are harmed by microorganisms in the water. Master Ye said that these microorganisms are invisible and intangible, but they are indeed harmful to people. Since he said that, it is impossible to deceive

People, now they all drink hot water.

Chen Ran said lightly.

Cao Meng and Zhu Yawen looked at each other again, and they remained skeptical about this matter.

After all, this kind of thing has not been verified, but it is not important. Drink hot water and drink hot water. It is just to burn more charcoal on the left and right. Through this matter, what really makes them feel terrible is actually Ye Ning. The appeal of horror.

What he said is like a golden rule, no one will question it at all, and everyone will immediately start to implement it without any discount.

This kind of influence is what they must pay attention to.

Perhaps it was because I saw that the two of them were dissatisfied with this matter, and Chen Randao did not explain anything.These people from other places are not as blind as Bingzhou. They are suspicious of Ye Ning's incomprehensible commands. It is quite normal.

He returned to the original topic and continued to talk about things that interest them.

"About letting the people understand the current affairs of the imperial court, Lord Ye once told a story. He said that in the distant past, there was a person who had grudges with others, so he wanted to kill him and wanted to let the other party die, so he prepared. A huge sum of one hundred taels of silver was bought for murder, but the person who took the silver did not want to do it himself, so he took out another fifty taels.

The silver was handed over to a third person, and the third person only got fifty taels. To kill people for the silver, which was somewhat unworthy, so he took out another twenty taels and gave it to a idler. To do this, the ruffians, although they are arrogant on weekdays, they still dare not kill. Besides, the money is too small, so they are withheld.

After fifteen taels, only five taels were taken out and handed over to a small character under his hand. What else can you do with fifty taels at this time? I'm afraid I can't buy a sharp sword.

"This story corresponds to the imperial court. In the past, the money and food sent out by the capital for disaster relief was still 10%. When it came to the local area, it was only 70%. Then in the county, only 50% was left. The people have only 30% at most."

"So, in order to completely eradicate the phenomenon of deceiving the top and the bottom, the people must know a lot.

Chen Ran said with a smile.

"Now I am involved in the affairs of the state, which are basically open and transparent. It can be said that everyone knows that it is almost impossible to deceive the top and the bottom.

Zhu Yawen asked.

"Why is this?"

Chen Ran bought a jar, ran to the own hut, took out a paper full of text, and said.

"because this.

Cao Meng took it and opened it.

It was densely written about the recent events in the state and the latest policies, and there was a clear date on it, just a few days ago.

"What is this?"

He was surprised.

"This is a newspaper. You don't need to go out to learn about state affairs, you just need to read the newspaper."

It turns out that this is the newspaper.

It's impossible for Zhu Yawen to have heard of newspapers. After all, Bingzhou has published so many, and even a lot of them have spread to Wei. It is just that he is lacking in interest and has not realized how powerful the newspaper is, so he doesn't care much. .

Looking at it now, I know how powerful newspapers are.

The existence of this thing can solve the ills that have existed in the officialdom for countless years, which is really incredible.

They asked Chen Ran for a newspaper, and Chen Ran readily accepted.

The two went back to read the newspaper with them, it can be said that they stayed up all night.

A simple newspaper, but it makes them crazy, this is simply a new world, can it be played like this 0.3?

At dawn, the two were in Xiaowang Village for a short supply.

In fact, it was not about supply, but specifically wanted to see if Xiaowangcun was as Chen Ran said.

From this look, I found that there was indeed no discrepancy.

"Ye Ning, what a big thing I did in Binzhou!'

Cao Meng took a deep breath.

He has an infinite curiosity about Binzhou.

A small village has already brought him such a huge shock.

What about the county seat?

Where is the county seat?

Where is the state capital?

The next journey is magical for them.

In the county town, they saw a lot of hot construction sites, and construction was being carried out everywhere. The small county town, developed like a fire, was even comparable to some county towns in the Wei state.

As for the county town, it makes them even more dreamlike. You can see an endless stream of caravans inside. Yamen even specially developed a street road. As a commercial center, many foreign merchants are even far away. Come, do business here exclusively.

As a result, Wei State no longer had the slightest arrogance.

They became humble.

In other words, low self-esteem.

Because as long as they are not blind, they can see the gap between the two countries. This union state is no longer the union state in their memory.

Finally, after half a month, they arrived at the state capital.

Compared with the past, Jinyang City has been expanded at least ten times.

At a glance, it seems to be an ancient city.

But even with so many expansions, Jinyang already seemed a bit crowded. As soon as I entered, I saw countless carriages and horses crisscrossing the road, a scene of extreme prosperity.

Cao Meng was no longer shocked when he saw this, because he was numb.

He took a deep breath and walked to the teahouse on the side of the road, planning to take a short rest and sort out his emotions by the way.

But as a result, as soon as I entered the teahouse, I heard a slightly familiar voice.

"Brother Cao, it's been a long time.

Cao Meng looked up and saw only a handsome man dressed in white and full of books. He was holding a folding fan in his hand and smiling at the corner of his mouth, looking at him.

"Ye Ning!"

Cao Meng's pupils shrank suddenly. .
