Northern Dynasties Imperial Industry

Chapter 116 Don’t disturb gods and Buddhas

After going through this whole day, Li Tai also deeply realized that he was still weak, but he was very attractive, and everyone wanted to come and poke him.

But fortunately, now that he has entered the Xingtai Bafu, Yu Wentai has also seen his value. As long as he concentrates on doing what the boss has told him, no one can actually hurt him for the time being.

He didn't take Li Munaton's threats to heart. Everyone has their own things to do. Who can stop me from working for Daxingtai?

Of course, the prerequisite is that you must be able to do things well and reflect your own value. Daxingtai does not raise idle people. If you cannot create new value, you will be abandoned in a matter of minutes without any negotiation.

It is unrealistic for Ui Yai to end at the end, and Yu Wentai doesn't know the specific details. He only came up with this idea after hearing Li Tai talk about this episode. Ideas can be radical, but if you want to implement them, you still have to refer to the actual situation.

The reason why the land equalization system in the Northern Wei Dynasty could be implemented was that the imperial court controlled a large amount of unclaimed wasteland. However, water conservancy is a scarce resource, and most of it is in the hands of powerful military leaders. If you want to seize food from the tiger's mouth, you must be prepared for backlash.

Li Tai does not have the martyr's enthusiasm of a reformer, and even if he does, he will not release it on the Yuwen family's business, so of course he must carefully consider every step of the way.

This first step obviously cannot focus directly on the riverbanks. Instead, we must first propose a plan that is generally beneficial to the public, which is to dredge the river.

The river has become smoother and the amount of water has increased, which will bring considerable benefits to farming along the river and water conservancy, so no one will object.

After this consensus is reached, the government can set up weirs along the river to control the abundance or shortage of water flow to a certain extent. With this foundation, it will naturally have the right to speak. The water supply will be cut off on 135 and 246 will be supplied indirectly. It’s just a matter of effort.

Of course, such a method will have a considerable negative impact on farming along the river, but the biggest impact will be on the owners of the banks along the river. If the flow of water is cut off for one day, the company will stop working for one day, resulting in real losses.

This situation does not reach the level where the government forces the people to rebel. In the name of rushing to work, the government can establish a collection of donations for those houses, squeeze some profits from those owners, replenish some of the early consumption, and also gain Follow-up funding.

When the matter reaches this point, the government's right to speak is completely established, and the next steps will be easier to operate.

A new dynasty was built near the newly built weir, and bidding was open to the whole society. More powerful people were introduced to join, so that they could run their own operations, and the government could take commissions.

The advantage of this is to redistribute water resources and transform the confrontation between the government and the private sector into competition within the people. Only when the powerful people get involved can the government have an arbitration power and engage in some fox-diving operations.

Directly taking the hydraulic system into government ownership may seem clean and tidy, but it also has great hidden dangers.

First of all, the government needs to add a new management team and formulate a management process. Secondly, it cannot win some supporters among the people, which will intensify the conflict between the government and the people. If it gets serious, it may even affect the overall recruitment of Guanlong and the government. Military construction.

This is the idea, and Li Tai is also thinking carefully about the specific steps. This is not a reform that can be completed in the short term. He also hopes to gain greater power through this matter.

Therefore, when drafting the plan, he chose Luoshui as a pilot project. The Luoshui River is an important tributary of the Wei River, but it is not considered the foundation of agriculture in Guanzhong. Except for this section in Huazhou, most of the areas it flows through are not located in the Guanzhong Plain.

This means that even if the policy implementation encounters any obstacles or does not go smoothly, the negative impact on Guanzhong farming will be within control. Moreover, there are basically no powerful locals in the Luoshui River Basin, so there is no need to have a direct conflict with powerful families like Jingzhao Weidu.

Of course, the most important thing is Li Tai's positioning on the development of his power. At the moment, he is still weak and needs to continue to operate and develop. There are many powerful clans around Jingzhao and the political sensitivity is also high. Once you step into it, you will inevitably face many constraints and the space for development is really limited.

If this matter can be implemented, Li Tai will certainly have to fight for the initiative. Although the leadership secretary has a detached status, it cannot compare with the majesty of the generals. He could see Su Chuo's middle-aged and premature appearance, and he was filled with rejection in his heart.

After the basic idea was determined, in the next few days, Li Tai not only went to work normally, but also perfected the details of the plan, which was very busy and fulfilling.

Li Mu did have a lot of face in front of Yuwentai. Two days after his visit, when it was Li Tai's turn to be on duty in the reporter's office, Yuwentai took the initiative to talk about this topic.

It was not convenient for him to directly interfere in the family affairs of the famous family, but he only hinted that Li Tai might as well engage in other social activities after work, such as digging caves to worship Buddha.

Li Tai couldn't help but refuse to give Yu Wentai face, so he just sighed and said: "I am very grateful to you, and I have been tired of a lot of work before I was sick. I hope that the accumulated problems in the case can be settled as soon as possible. In my heart, Daxingtai I am determined to build my career with great ambition, and I am fortunate enough to work in the palace. I enjoy all the honors and food and clothing. I really have no false thoughts to disturb the gods and Buddhas!"

When Yu Wentai heard this answer, although he knew it was a polite comment, he couldn't help laughing: "Boshan's wonderful words are refreshing, and talking with you is also a great pleasure. Being cautious and contented is not only the duty of a minister." , It’s also the luck of those who control people. Since you have to focus on things, you won’t let distractions disturb you!”

In Yuwentai's mind, Li Tai, a young man, is naturally not as important as Li Mu, a humeral confidant. But as a superior, he cannot respond to the requests of his subordinates. He naturally has his own tolerance in his mind.

What's more, claiming someone's name is a very sensitive topic. The gathering of famous people in Kanto is better than that in Kansai, and as the leader of the Bafu, Yuwentai is not able to do it himself.

In the final analysis, his authority comes from maintaining order rather than destroying it.

Li Tai dared to reply to Li Mu precisely because he understood this. It is true that there is not much truth to say when a warrior rules the country, but when his status changes, his attitude towards people and things will naturally be adjusted accordingly.

Is Er Zhurong fierce? The Heyin Incident resulted in numerous killings, but when the Heyin Incident occurred, he was just a border official who entered the country and needed to establish his authority through killings. But when he became a powerful official in the hegemony, he also had scruples, and was even successfully counterattacked by Emperor Xiaozhuang, whom he supported.

It is easy to destroy the good order of society. A man can kill two people in anger, but when you want to create a sustained and stable authority, you must make concessions to the rules.

After this conversation, Li Mu's matter was finally revealed.

Li Tai was neither kicked off the stage nor bothered to stand up for his family. Even if there will be any aftermath later, at least now he has Yuwentai's protection, so Li Tai doesn't need to worry about it.

This is not a principled conflict of interest or contradiction. Li Tai does not object to acknowledging relatives with the Gaoping and Li brothers, but the premise is that you have a correct attitude. When you come up, you show off and acknowledge your elders. Isn’t it a shame for you to call me uncle? He Liuhun is so awesome, he is also my big brother!

While Li Tai was busy working in the Taifu, the personnel affairs outside the government did not stop there.

A few days ago, a heavily armed team of elite soldiers entered Lishan, instantly breaking the peace of this summer resort in Kinki.

It should be noted that the Heba family is not the only family in Lishan. Many dignitaries in the capital also enclose and manage their businesses in the foothills of the mountain.

Zhao Gui suddenly led his army into Lishan Mountain. He did not report to the court before, but he did not notify the court after entering the mountain. This inevitably makes people think: Did Daxingtai feel the loss caused by the defeat of Mangshan last year? Authority, so what actions do you want to take to re-establish authority?

The imperial court and the Bafu were the two centers of the Western Wei Dynasty. If there was a loss of communication between them and any conflict occurred, the consequences could be large or small, which would make people uneasy.

So on the second day after Zhao Gui led his army into the mountain, Emperor Yuan Baoju of the Western Wei Dynasty, who had not waited for an explanation, sent an envoy directly to Lishan to ask what happened.

Zhao Gui was also very embarrassed about this. Previously, Daxingtai had clearly ordered that things here should be kept secret and not make it known to everyone. Even when asked by the emperor's envoy, he did not dare to tell the truth directly. He only said that he was on a mission and did not know the rest. Please consult Daxingtai for specific details.

Such an answer naturally did not satisfy the emperor and the court, but Zhao Gui had no choice. He had to bear a lot of responsibility for the unfavorable war last year. If he did not have a correct attitude, he would not be able to find a big boss. Xingtai continues to tolerate and reuse his reasons.

But if this happens, it will be inevitable for him to see evil in the court. After all, what can't be brought to your attention? But he couldn't say it, which further confirmed his identity as Daxingtai's confidant to the royal family.

After realizing this, Zhao Gui couldn't help but wonder how much of Daxingtai's angry look when he mentioned this matter was true or false? Perhaps he had already made up his mind to deter the imperial court through some actions, but he had never found a suitable opportunity.

The matter reported by Zhao Gui was, at best, just a matter of family tradition, tutoring, and lifestyle. It was only because the person involved was a descendant of He Bayue that it seemed a bit special.

Keeping it secret in the initial stage can bring great shock to the people of Gyeonggi and make people realize the reality. After all, Daxingtai has the final say in Kansai today. The ending is also very simple. With a little explanation, people both inside and outside can understand Da Xingtai's painstaking efforts to conceal evil and care deeply for He Batayue's descendants.

From the beginning to the end, the only bad guy was Zhao Gui, who made a fuss out of a molehill and escalated the playfulness of the playboys from various families of the Gyeonggi dignitaries to the level of rebellion.

The imperial court would no longer trust him to win over him, and the families of the guests and dandies who were restrained in other professions would probably have deep resentment towards Zhao Gui after the false alarm.

"This time, I really miscalculated..."

After realizing his situation, Zhao Gui was filled with resentment. Naturally, he did not dare to point his resentment at Daxingtai, but he hated Li Boshan even more deeply for the man who made him behave so awkwardly.
