Divine Book Era

Chapter 129

At this time, the man came over and said suddenly: "I heard that you are very good at chess, and you actually broke the Saint chess game!"

"My level of chess is very poor, but I did crack the Saint chess game!" Liu Xiu said calmly.

"In that case, let's play the next game!" said the middle-aged man.

"How to call it?" Liu Xiu asked.

"The world calls me Mr. Huang!" said the middle-aged man.

"Not long ago, I met a local tyrant named Jin Baiwan; and now I met a nobleman, Mr. Huang, it seems that my luck is good!" Liu Xiu smiled and said, "It doesn't matter, if you are idle, you are idle. Let's go to the next game then!"

Soon, the chess pieces were placed on the chessboard!
"This is a chess game, which is said to be left by a saint!" Huang Sanye said, "I don't know if your Excellency can break it!"

"If you understand the way of a sage, you can easily break the chess game; if you don't understand the way of a sage, you can't break the game!" Liu Xiu looked at the chess game, closed her eyes and thought about it instead of playing a chess piece.

The middle-aged man didn't urge him, but waited quietly. This scholar is good at planning before making a decision, and strikes later. If he doesn't make a move, it's all.

After a long time, Liu Xiu opened his eyes and said, "I already have a solution!"

"Okay!" said Mr. Huang.

Immediately, the two sides began to play chess, and the chess pieces were played very quickly, and the originally jerky and difficult chess game was suddenly peeled off and continuously cracked.

Huang Sanye said, "You broke another sage chess game!"

Liu Xiu said, "It's just a fluke!"

"In the world, there is no luck!" Huang Sanye said, "Corruption is a great harm to the country. There used to be an emperor's anti-corruption law, and corruption was 60 taels of skinning; but corruption has been repeatedly prohibited. The emperor often sighed in his later years. A batch of corrupt officials were born, but at night another batch of corrupt officials were born, the number of corrupt officials born every day is more than the number of corrupt officials killed!"

"It is said that talented people from Yingzhou are the smartest. Is there a way to crack it?"

"Yes!" Liu Xiu smiled strangely, "I have three strategies to break corruption! It's a pity that this is the law of the holy way, not the law of the emperor's way!"

"How to crack it?" Mr. Huang asked eagerly.

I didn't care at all, this is the holy way, not the emperor's way!
Liu Xiu said: "The best policy is that the people have the right to complain. Why do corrupt officials run rampant? It's because the people are like sand, a plate of loose sand, and they are powerless to fight against corrupt officials. They are just fish and meat. When the people have been wronged, there is nowhere to cry out, even if they open their mouths. , but it was quickly buried in the huge network. Now, the majority of the people do not have the right to complain; only a few people with background and influence have the right to complain. Being shrewd is just a pair of eyes, how many corrupt officials can be stared at, how many corrupt officials can be killed; only when the common people have the right to complain, and the common people are all staring at the corrupt officials, the number of corrupt officials will be reduced!"

The power to cry out for injustice is the hardest thing to find!
The people's cries of grievances are extremely weak in front of the bureaucratic net and can easily be drowned out.

Just because His Majesty the Emperor, in order to manage the people well, he broke up the people and the soldiers, so as not to let the people of the Li people stick together and turn into a bunch of sand in the end.The sand is weak and weak, unable to resist the bureaucracy, so it is naturally a fish.Only when the sand turns into stone, into big boulders, can it withstand the counterattack of the bureaucracy.

But after turning into stone, the mob will increase, which is not conducive to the stability of the rule.

Corruption of 60 taels of skinning, the anti-corruption is not without strictness, but in the end it failed.

Just because the anti-corruption road is wrong!

The existence of a large number of obedient people is the soil that breeds corrupt officials; and in the era of mobs, there are very few corrupt officials.

There may be one or two corrupt officials, but they will be beaten to death by the mob!
Emperors are often faced with two choices, choose the mob or corrupt officials. In the end, most of them choose corrupt officials. No matter how many corrupt officials there are, they will not lose the throne, but if the mob increases, they will lose the throne.

This best strategy seems to be very clever and wonderful, but in fact it is all nonsense, and no king would adopt it!

Huang Sanye asked again: "What's the middle policy, what's the worst policy?"

"The middle policy is to turn the public into private! Many corrupt officials, why they are corrupt, are only because they are only the emperor's employees. They are not their own things, so naturally they don't cherish them. Naturally, they want to embezzle things that are not their own. Only Turning the public into private and turning it into a private thing, naturally there is no corruption! I have only heard that there are many people who corrupt officials, but I have never heard of people who corrupt themselves."

Those who advocate that the world is for the public are often prone to corruption, because the world is for the public seems to sound good, but in fact it is easy to make no distinction between public and private, harming the public and benefiting the private, and naturally not caring about things that are not their own, so they are corrupt; but once it becomes My own fields are often managed hard, and there is no corruption at all!
No one embezzles their fields!
It's just a middle policy, and there is no solution!
Under the whole world, could it be the land of the king? What the emperor wants is absolute control, but this is contrary to the way of the emperor.

Huang Sanye frowned, thought for a long time, and said, "What's the worst strategy?"

"The worst policy is to make corruption public and legalized. Corruption fees are not called corruption fees, but political donations!" Liu Xiu said, "There is a country called the Lighthouse Country. Is there no corrupt officials in the Lighthouse Country? Yes, there are also corrupt officials in the Beacon Country, and the number is not small, but they have become legalized and transparent in the name of political donations. And at this time, of course, there is no corruption!"

"The harm of corruption is mainly private transactions, which are constantly being darkened, which has caused the people to lose trust in the government."

"But once corruption becomes transparent, political transactions become clear, and everything is under the sun, it exists in the name of political donations. People may hate it, but they have always maintained a sense of trust. On the contrary, the harm has dropped a lot! Many things have The harm is not how much harm this incident can bring; the main thing is this kind of black box operation, this kind of private transaction, which makes each other lose trust."

"The harm caused by loss of trust far exceeds any economic loss!"

"The economic harm caused by corrupt officials is actually limited. The real great harm is the loss of trust between the government and the people."

In the end, Liu Xiu commented: "The top policy is too difficult, and the middle policy is also difficult. Only the bottom policy is the easiest. It is not difficult to govern corrupt officials and make them clean. It’s just that they are unwilling to pay a higher price—if they fight against corruption, they will lose their throne, if they don’t, they will lose their country!”
