The leisurely life of rebirth.

The lunch was cooked by Fang Monan, grandma, mother, Qiu Lian, Aunt Lian, and Aunt Fat. With the improvement of her cultivation and her strength, she can handle the pot and the spoon now.The posture is chic and handsome, and the four of them blinked reluctantly when they saw it.

Qiu Lian murmured enviously, "Fan can do this too!"

Aunt Lian smiled and said, "I have learned a lot by stealth, and I am also good at cooking!"

In fact, the food on this farm was not rich that day, but because the Chinese New Year made more delicate, Fang Monan also carved and engraved.

Looking at the table full of dishes, the aroma is tangy, the color is attractive, and the shape is beautiful, it makes people drool. [

Braised pork, braised pork ribs, smoked bacon, braised pork with preserved vegetables, Kung Pao chicken, beef with pickled peppers, beef brisket stewed with tomatoes.Braised prawns in red, boiled fish, eel with garlic, steamed Wuchang fish, silky chicken with scallops, three-cup chicken, shredded apple and fish-flavored eggplant, mapo tofu.

Fang Monan also carved carrots and white radishes and placed them on the plate, which is more beautiful.

Grandma saw the flowers carved from carrots and said with a smile, "This is really, carrots are carved with flowers, which look good but don't taste good."

"Hey..." Fang Monan scratched his head, "It's the festival! It's booming, let's celebrate it!"

"Eat!" Grandma ordered, and everyone picked up their chopsticks and began to eat.

After the meal, Fang Monan and the others moved to the living room again. Fang Monan looked at the several gift boxes on the tea table—mostly tea, but also cigarettes and alcohol, "Tsk tsk... This is really a Chinese characteristic—the only one Two." She frowned tightly, "These gift givers are really good, this gift can only be given to people's hearts. In this way... Dad and they all know that you don't drink or smoke, so why give this?"

Fang Monan hurriedly opened the cigarette and alcohol box, "Look! Sure enough, there is something tricky hidden underneath!"

Everyone watched Fang Monan unravel the tricks.Others also started to unwrap the presents one after another. Some unwrapped cigarettes and alcohol, some unwrapped tea leaves, and some even unwrapped beautifully packaged biscuit boxes.Some are tricky, and some are just simple gifts.Such as cookies.You should know that there are children in my father's family who will definitely like to eat it.

Count down, there are 1 yuan! "What to do!" Fang Monan raised his eyebrows and asked. "Being an official means getting money quickly!"

"Nannan!" Dad scolded, suppressing his anger, "Why does this person only want to go on the wrong path, instead of going on the right path?"

"Zhengping, why are you angry? This has happened since ancient times. My family Nannan is right." Mom defended, "This family has done it. If it doesn't work, let's talk about it!"

Han Zhiqian also said, "This is normal! As for the government's fees and charges, they are included in our public relations expenses."

Xiaomei smiled and said, "There is such a jingle, 500 yuan to register a number, 1000 yuan to report it, and 10000 yuan to get a hat."

"Hey! ** once said something like this: 'Governing the country is governing officials. Propriety, righteousness and shame. The four dimensions of the country, if the four dimensions are not stretched, the country will not be the country. If all the ministers are shameless, corrupt, and misbehaving, the country has no way to govern them. , then the world must be in chaos, and the common people must be Li Zicheng. How many years has it been!' Mr. Lin said with emotion.

Fang Monan stuck out his tongue and said, "The so-called government of officials means the governance of officials; that is, the governance and management of the cadre team. The purpose of governing officials is to govern the country. If the government is clear and bright, the country will be prosperous and prosperous; if the government is corrupt, the country will be poor and weak. The common people live in poverty. This is a truth that has been repeatedly proved by thousands of years of historical facts in China and abroad." This is pediatrics, and the severity of it in later generations can scare people to death.Now it's more of disbelief!

Mr. Lin patted his father on the shoulder and said, "Government by officials refers to the ugly phenomenon in the selection and appointment of people, but its core problem is too much to sell officials and nobles. If you look through the 24 histories, you will find that each dynasty and generation have different levels of This problem exists. Even if the government is as clear as the early Tang Dynasty, I think there are places where you can't see it."

Fang Monan agreed, "Human nature is like this. History books are everywhere. Those that are written down and recorded in history are just a drop in the bucket. The public selling of officials first appeared in the Eastern Han Dynasty. According to historical records, the Kaixi Mansion of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty was made public. Selling officials, 400 million for four hundred stone officials, 2000 million for two thousand stone officials, 500 million to 1000 million for officials such as ministers, county magistrates have their own prices according to the abundance and barrenness of the land in the county. The rich pay first, and the poor pay double when they reach the official position .”

Mr. Lin said seriously, "The essence of this phenomenon of selling officials and buying officials is just four words: 'power-for-money transaction'; that is, buying official power with money, and then making a lot of money with official power. Both parties involved are making huge profits. Therefore, many treacherous and profit-seeking people are like flies chasing smell, like mosquitoes sucking blood, flocking to it, and never tire of it. If things go on like this, no matter how clean the government is, it will turn into money politics, and no matter how clean the government is, it will also become a money-smelling government. The whole The government will form a traitorous party to control the power and use public power for personal gain; loyal and good people will be scorned, and the evil forces will be able to do nothing. The final result will inevitably be: the common people who cannot survive can bear it, and rise up to rule in darkness buried in the raging rage of the Great Peasant Uprising."

Dad said, "We sure don't..."[

"Pfft..." The water in Xiaomei's mouth sprayed all over the floor.Han Zhiqian quickly wiped her with a tissue. "Sorry..." Xiaomei said shyly.

With the facts in front of his eyes, Dad really couldn't open his eyes and talk nonsense.

Mr. Lin also said, "It is terrible for officials to govern corruption. It destroys the selection criteria for officials (or cadres), so that the principle and mechanism of selecting talents and appointing talents breeds a 'selfish virus', which leads to the leadership and departments in charge of organizing personnel work. 'Vision confusion', so that I consciously use the 'black and white upside-down method of identifying and employing people' in my work."

"No wonder the officials protect each other, a grasshopper on a rope!" Mom clicked her tongue.

Han Zhiqian said, "Toxify the social atmosphere, reverse the correct value orientation and moral concepts of the society, and lead the people's thoughts and spirits into the wrong path of money worship, individualism, chasing power and yearning for power and selfishness, and make the whole society suffer from' Moral slippery insanity'."

Fang Monan said, "The upper class of society will be infected with 'bone weakness', so that it will rot and deteriorate, and finally embark on the ghost road of death and government."

The corruption of the later generations is jaw-dropping, and it can cost hundreds of millions at every turn. You must know that the hundreds of millions are accumulative, not accumulated overnight. grasshoppers.

Naked officials are everywhere, want officials to disclose their property?The property is all abroad!The Republic of China was the period when the 'four big families' were corrupt and corrupt!All their money has been deposited in the United States. However, the illegal property in the United States that was permanently frozen by the United States in 1949, according to the most conservative estimate by American experts who study the history of the Republic of China based on a small part of declassified files in the mid-80s, is at least 20 billion dollars or more.Don't think it's small, the purchasing power at that time was quite strong.Among them, Song Meiling's name is 25 billion US dollars, and this does not include the antiques, calligraphy and paintings, jewelry, and gold of unknown origin that are permanently frozen in the vault of the Bank of America.It can be seen that sooner or later you have to pay back when you come out to mess around, that's the people's fat and people's anointment!It's just that the Americans are frozen, and the Chinese can only look at the ocean and sigh.Americans are stupid, but Americans are not stupid! "Heshen fell, Jiaqing was full", but I don't know when those naked officials in later generations will return.

Throughout the ages, ** has always existed. The corruption is not terrible, what is terrible is the corruption of the whole society. In the past, the KMT was the officialdom.However, the most terrifying thing is not these, but the decline of the world in the future, and the education of elementary school students: Mom gives the teacher a gift, otherwise it will be bad for me.Today we talk about fairness and justice here, and feel that the present is not good enough. When the current kindergarten students come up or middle school students come up, do they think this is not good?I'm afraid not. They feel that everyone in here is like this, and accepting such a concept is the scariest thing.

"The most important thing now is how to solve these troubles." Mom nodded the money on the table, "Our family is not short of money, we don't need these."

"Killing can't solve all the problems, and not killing will add to the trend." Mr. Lin frowned and said, "Zhu Yuanzhang hates corruption, so his methods are cruel! But it's still the same. Not the same."

"Killing chickens and worshiping Buddha means that corruption cannot be cured! To rule the country, first rule the officials; then rule the people, and the government will obey the people; the country will be strong and the enemy will attack." Fang Monan said slowly.

"The key is to get the rule of law." Dad said, holding his forehead.

rule of law!Can it be cured?At the beginning of human beings, nature is greedy.The common people's requirements are very low.Hatred is not rich, but unkind; hated is not officials, but corrupt; angry is not power, but injustice; angry is not a minister, but traitorous.What you worry about is not food, but health; what you worry about is not housing, but inflation; what you worry about is not smog, but pollution; what you worry about is not aging, but dependence.

Future generations do not know whether they can solve such a vast and complicated project.

Fang Monan didn't pay attention to the follow-up of this matter. This has to be resolved by Dad himself, and there may be many more in the future.It is up to him to choose whether to go alone, or to go with the light.It doesn't matter which way you go.

Being in harmony with the light and the dust was originally a concept in Lao Tzu's "Tao Te Ching".Laozi advocates success and retirement, that is, not claiming credit, and not excessively pursuing fame and fortune.I think this is the way of heaven.The so-called way of heaven, such as day and night passing through the sky, day and night, cold and summer, autumn and winter, all naturally complete its life tasks, and then quietly disappear, leaving no traces.So in life, how should we achieve appropriate movement and stillness without loss?

Famous Buddhist sayings: Nobleness must be degenerate, accumulation will dissipate; happy meeting will end parting, life will be salty and die.What does that mean?The higher you climb, the harder you fall, and the heights are extremely cold. When you go to the extreme, things will turn back. This is a natural truth.The more it accumulates, the faster it dissipates. We all come and go naked, so who can worry about it?But whether you care about it or not.I can't take anything with me anyway!Even if it is a mountain of gold and silver, isn't it just a joy?Thousands of miles to build a long shed.There is no banquet that lasts forever, talking about beautiful wives and concubines, filial sons and virtuous grandchildren, I will part with you after all.Because we are all sentient beings, we are born and must die!This is the natural truth.But who can remember these simple truths. rs! ! !
