Northern Dynasties

Chapter 139
The smell in the straight hall is still not good, there are gusts of wind passing through the hall from time to time, and the spirit of the six recommended subordinates is not as full as before, either because of the exhaustion of the journey, or because they are simply against the Dushui government office and Li Tai, the chief official, was disappointed.

Li Tai had just walked into the hall and sat down, before he could comment on everyone's performance, Lu Yan, who was already a little dissatisfied with him, said first: "Please forgive the humble and ignorant, dare to ask about the work, the government office is newly established here, Everything is waiting to be used, why do Jiaxiangli and floating goods disturb the crowd?
The reason why the Taiwan government confers this is to promote the political water and to correct the teaching decree. Before the decree is issued, it will first appear in the world with a lowly job. "

Everyone in the hall nodded when they heard what Lu Yan said, and two people echoed: "I am stupid in a lowly position, please enlighten me."

Li Tai was not surprised by everyone's attitude.

Whose young man is not frivolous, fantasizing about a big career, and finally found a job through the back door, but ended up squatting beside the Luoshui River as a fish collector. This huge psychological gap, if he didn't make it, he I can't accept it myself.

But since the masses questioned it, they had to give a reasonable explanation, otherwise it would be really difficult to lead the team if it dispersed.

"Your ignorance is true, otherwise I would not be the one who is in charge of this matter today. There are high and low positions, clear and turbid positions, idleness in affairs, and virtue and ignorance in people, so that things can run in an orderly manner."

Sitting in the hall overlooking several people, he said: "You don't know me, so doubts are inevitable. But I am the head of this hall. I am only loyal and sincere, and I have no responsibility to answer your questions. Those who are capable will be retained, and those who are inferior will be retained. To be expelled, this is the rule of law. If you still want to ask questions, go to the hall to receive the whipping, and when you return to the hall, I will distinguish my doubts, who else wants to ask?"

When everyone heard this, their expressions and reactions were different. They looked around and lowered their heads to think about it. It was Lu Yan who walked out first, and said in a deep voice: "Although there are priorities in this yamen hall, there are right and wrong principles in the world! Whipping is not enough to prevent people from breaking the evil and correcting the way, so I will accept it myself, hoping to have righteous words to answer questions and solve doubts!"

After saying this, he went out of the hall with his head held high. Li Yantou, who was waiting outside, was already feeling dissatisfied.

That Lu Yan looked a little frail, but he had a bit of toughness in his bones. He whipped him down several times, only heard gritted teeth, but didn't hear screams.

After the solid ten whips were drawn, Lu Yan walked back to the hall pale and trembling, still glaring at Li Tai fiercely.

Li Tai didn't look at him directly, but looked at the other people present and asked: "This Lu Lang's heart of seeking knowledge is indeed firm and passionate. How about you? Are you going to be tortured and listen to the teachings, or will you withdraw silently?"

"I'll come! If you don't get a satisfactory answer this day, you can repay what you bear!"

Another person stepped out, looked at Li Tai and said bitterly, and then went out to receive the whipping.

With these two people as an example, the remaining four simply put their hearts on the line and went out of the hall to be tortured.

Li Tai was immediately happy when he saw this scene. He didn't think much of them at first, but he didn't expect that all of them had such backbone, and none of them were frightened.Sure enough, he was young and energetic, and his chief official lacked much authority.

After everyone returned to the hall after being tortured one by one, Li Tai also stood up from his seat, looked at everyone with a kinder look, and sighed first: "The towering giant tree sprouts from the soil. The firmness of gold and jade, the purest In the dust. All things in the world, from the small to the big, from the cheap to the expensive.

Small things in the arms can't speak, but if they are properly educated, they can become a country seeker.If the imperial government can't overwhelm Li Shu, how can it gather people to benefit the country?

You and others have lofty aspirations and are not afraid of authority, so they can indeed be called the princes of the country.But do you know why Daxingtai asked me to stand by the river? "

"It's not about searching for rotten fish and rotten crabs, or deceiving people, greedy goods and wrong farmers!"

A person in the hall snorted coldly, no matter what his intentions were before, after being whipped, he was completely opposed to Li Tai.

Li Tai was not angry about this, and raised three fingers and said: "The reason why Daxingtai teaches, one is to control water and improve farming, the other is to open canals and promote construction, and the third is to benefit the country. Then I will ask you again." , Can you know how many hectares of Luoshui irrigated fields? Can you know how many districts along the river? Can you know how much capital is needed to benefit both the government and the people?"

"A certain class is just ordered. Since it is not a case, I don't know the general idea!"

Another person opened his mouth to contradict, but his tone was obviously weak.

"Then do you know when Luoshui started to hear news and when it was frozen? Do you know the harvest per mu of paddy fields, flooded fields, dry fields, and sloping fields? Do you know whether the average farmer and tenant are full or short at the end of the year? Do you know the surplus and consumption of milling and grinding? Do you know how many feet of clothes and stones you eat for men and women? Do you know how many days a man and woman can harvest from plowing and fishing? Do you know..."

Li Tai asked a series of questions, the more he asked the people present, the more unnatural their expressions became. At the end, he bent down and patted the table and said: "Taking people's power and expropriating it for the country, is this considered a correct decree? The people are easy to abuse, and the sky is hard to bully. Anyone can exercise power and exert power. But if the officials force the people to rebel, you will die without a place to bury yourself!

The whole house stinks?How strong is the stench, and how bitter are the people of Yanluo!Such a cheap career, everyone tends to me.You wait for the family to enjoy the kindness, only complain that the homework is not big, and the slightest kind of kindness is lazy, and the family and the country have nothing to do! "

"But, how much can this garden full of fish and crabs help the country?"

Hearing this, Li Tai sneered again and said: "Collecting fish is not for helping the country, but for the sake of self-preservation. Meat eaters are despicable, not because they are mentally retarded, but because they are ignorant.

In times of crisis and hardship, one needs to take the middle path into account, and those who are not benevolent and firm are not enough to work together.Those who are firm but not benevolent abuse the people, and those who are benevolent but not firm harm the country.I don't worry that others don't know me, even if I walk alone, I will drive for a long time! "

Speaking of this, he sighed again: "The previous actions were not out of personal grievances. Those who violate my law will be punished! This is all for you to think about yourself. Those who leave the hall and abandon me, I hope they can laugh right when they meet again. Those who stay behind and work together should be cautious in their words and deeds!"

After he finished speaking, several people in the hall remained silent.

After a long while, Cui Yansheng, who was originally coerced by the audience, bowed his head and said: "The lowly job has shallow plans, and has no deep meaning in the strategy. If you dare to commit harassment, you should be punished. Teach the police, please don't chase the ugly, Stay together to work together."

Li Tai nodded after hearing the words, and raised his hand to signal him to get up and sit down at the table: "There is no double punishment for crimes, since I am still willing to donate my talents here, I have the capacity to accommodate others."

Hearing what Li Tai said, several other people also showed signs of struggle, especially Lu Yan, who challenged the leader a few times, his expression was even more volatile at the moment, without the enthusiasm just now.

"Excuse me, if a certain person thinks that his willpower is not enough to use a difficult matter, will he be willing to give a sentence with a pen?"

Another person stepped forward and asked with cupped hands.

One of the characteristics of being young and energetic is that he is hot-headed and does not consider the consequences of doing things. It was cool to hate his boss just now, but now he remembered that the chief officer's judgment will also have a great impact on the next selection of officials and appointments.

If the chief official committed public outrage and was criticized and dismissed, the verdict would have little effect, but Li Tai's generous speech just now had already made them feel guilty, and it seemed impossible to unite the masses to fight it.

"Although there are rules and regulations in things, people have different talents. Those who can't work together are not necessarily enemies. Although they can't help me with my case, there must be other places to take care of it."

After Li Tai heard this, he said with a smile again, saying that he would not take pleasure in wearing small shoes for others.

"To be engaged in macro-capacity is really ashamed of a humble job. It may not be the choice of Ren Jian, but there is still a bit of courage. I am willing to work with you in this class. Please do not give up!"

Hearing this, the man lowered his head and bowed deeply.

"Those who still want to stay in court, don't need to ask again. Distinguishing between public and private matters is the foundation of everything. Although there was a misunderstanding in the past, it is because we don't know each other. From now on, we hope to work together and know each other."

Seeing that the rest of the people were all coy, Li Tai no longer waited for them to speak, and then made a statement.

When the others heard this, they bowed silently and sat down at their seats.

Seeing this scene, Li Tai was delighted again. As expected, young people are easy to deal with. Although they have strong self-esteem and value face very much, they still have a sense of justice. As long as they get their approval, they are willing to bow their heads and admit their mistakes .

Originally, he didn't intend to keep all these people, but after quelling the human disturbance in Xiake this time, he felt that it would be a pity to give up any one of them.

They even dare to contradict their immediate superiors, so it is most suitable to keep those arrogant and unruly local tyrants.A little indoctrination and encouragement is a suitable sharp minion.

"As far as I was concerned, Lu Shixiong was the first to return. Although there were few recruits, he was the best at what he did."

After talking about the past, Li Tai finally got to the real thing.

Lu Yan had bowed his head and sat silently in the banquet, but when he heard the words, he stood up quickly and cupped his hands and said: "I am ashamed of my humble position. The journey is not far away, and it only takes three days to go back and forth. There are [-] people who were cited, and only [-] people came back. Fifty-five people, the reinstatement has not yet been completed, they really deserve to be the best..."

"The department has its own formula for discussing meritorious deeds. You don't have to announce it in court!"

Li Tai raised his hand to signal Lu Yan to stop his voice, then commented on everyone's performance, and then said: "The top three members will be supplemented to join the military, and they will be detained as deacons. The second-rate three members will go to the place along the Luoqiao River, Stand up wooden boards to promulgate government orders. There are three types of orders, which are monthly orders, prevention orders, and prohibition orders. If these three orders can be recited in plain text, those who cross the bridge and Tianjin will be exempt from taxation."

Since it is going to sink into the countryside, it is natural to build a bridge that can communicate directly with the local people. It is the most cost-effective way to publish newspapers and write slogans in densely populated places in Qiaojin, and it can also gain some literacy effects by the way.

Although the common people are not all well-read poems and books, if they are really linked to their own interests, they will spend some effort memorizing them by rote.

At present, the administrative office does not have the capital to directly dig new canals, so in the early stage, it is mainly to let the masses feel the existence of the government office. By the way, we will advertise to the public that we are not just fish collectors, and our scope of authority is still very large.

"Three new recruits from Yazhong join the army, and their duties are recorded, which is the monthly order of this month."

After thinking for a while, Li Tai added that he had a whip for the punishment, but no money for the reward, so he had to beat him to death first.

Seeing the three people smiling after hearing the words, they really enjoyed it.So, to be a good leader, you still have to learn PUA and engage in internal friction.
