Chapter 326: Dress for the people in new clothes
Du Fu was no longer silent, he really couldn't see through this young county guard, sometimes Qin Jin would show innate compassion, and sometimes he would reveal the extreme cold-bloodedness in his consciousness from time to time. Treating these fugitives from Shandong, not only did they look like they were facing a great enemy, but they also cleaned them up in the same way as they treated prisoners in battle.
Could it be that the fugitives in Shandong are the people of the Tang Dynasty? According to the data of the register, the vast majority of these fugitives are from good families from all over Shandong, so how can they be treated like prisoners?
In the end, Du Fu still couldn't help but question like Qin Jin, hoping that Qin Jin would treat these people well.
Qin Jin said calmly:
"I'm treating them well!"
Du Fu was puzzled.
"With so many restrictions on the king, how can you talk about being kind to him if he kills him at every turn?"
Originally, Qin Jin didn't want to explain more to Du Fu, but the other party had been pestering him endlessly, so he had to slow down.
"Then let me ask Brother Zimei first, what is a good family?"
The concept of a good family has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, Du Fu only felt that Qin Jin had asked more, so he subconsciously pointed to the rows of fugitives in the camp.
"Seven or eight out of ten of these people are from good families. ”
Qin Jin shook his head, pointed to the crowd that Du Fu pointed to and said slowly:
"They may have been from a good family a year ago, because they have a permanent field that the imperial court has given them to cultivate for generations, and no matter where they go, there is a ready-made foundation waiting for them. But now, Yongye Tian has become a ruin under the iron hooves of Youyan, and the family is ruined and nine out of ten people are dead, can you still expect them to work hard for the court and be loyal to the court?"
With more than a thousand years of knowledge than the people of the time, Qin Jin knew that there was another name for those in these situations, that is, the proletarian, and the person without permanent property had no worries, so he was naturally a natural rebel professional.
It's not that Qin Jin didn't distinguish between right and wrong, wiped out his conscience, and used such malice to speculate on those Shandong fugitives who lost their families and industries.
But governance is like this, and there is no room for half of the mixed emotions. All individuals who are human beings are ants in the face of national interests, if we care about the feelings and thoughts of each ant, can this government still be governed?
Although this is simple and crude, it is also very efficient, and there is no need for ants to express their opinions, they just need to do their part according to the rules, and everything will not get out of control.
Isn't it a kind treatment of these fugitives that there would be no riots without uncontrolled riots, and no killings without riots?
Listening to Qin Jin's almost strong words, Du Fu obviously felt that something was wrong and wanted to confess, but he didn't know where to start.
Qin Jin quickened his pace, he was going to the "concentration camp" to the Chinese army, Wei Ji as the envoy of He Hequ, he had already got the text of the political hall, his efficiency naturally could not be slow, the first batch of river workers must be stationed in Zhengbaiqu before noon tomorrow.
After walking out for more than a dozen steps, Qin Jin's pace slowed down again.
"It's not good to call a fugitive, so let's call it a fugitive in the future. It is not enough for these people to be controlled by military law, but it is necessary to penetrate into the minds of everyone and make them understand how important what they are doing is to the world......"
Du Fu made a difficulty, the common people have always only been in charge of farming, and the heart of the world is the ethics that only scholars should have, although the common people are good families, but such a request is too sensational.
"Didn't Brother Zimei raise some well-fed scribes in the county court who had nothing to do? Go back and choose a few people who are lively and articulate, and send them to the county guard's mansion, I will be useful. ”
Although Qin Jin used a consultative tone when he explained, Du Fu would not slack off, although he was very puzzled by this inexplicable order, he still rushed back to the county court without stopping
At noon that day, Du Fu pounced in the county guard's mansion, so he hurriedly rushed to the camp outside the city with a dozen scribes. Sure enough, Qin Jin was still stranded in the camp, as if the affairs here were much more important than those official affairs in the county guard's mansion.
Qin Jin didn't expect Du Fu's efficiency to become extremely fast, so he simply explained the task to the dozens of scribes.
"Raising soldiers for a thousand days and using soldiers for a while, Du Ming Mansion has raised you for more than a month, and now is the time for you to show your real skills!"
Qin Jin's words were mean, but they were the truth. These people were originally scribes who lived around Cui Liang, and they were either vassals and elegant, patting sycophants, or acting for the tiger. After Cui Liang fell, Qin Jin wanted to identify and punish them, but Du Fu remembered the feelings of scholars and couldn't bear to see these people affected by Cui Liang, so he simply recruited them to the county court and recruited them as scribes to cover their crimes.
"You can make up stories, right? A few of you are divided into three groups, you ......" Qin Jin pointed to the five or six people gathered around, "A few of you, make up some stories about thieves burning, killing, looting, and doing all kinds of evil, the more people and gods are angry, the greater the credit." Then he pointed out five more people, "You guys, you have to make up touching stories, the more touching the world, the better......"
Among these five people, one of them had a slender body and was more courageous, and before Qin Jin finished speaking, he asked: "The touching story has been captured, I don't know if the envoy has specific requirements?"
Qin Jin is not afraid of people interfering and taking the blame, he is afraid that under his hands are a group of elm heads who have no creativity.
"Very well, what's your name?"
"The humble surname is Fan Siren. ”
Hearing the surname Fan, Qin Jin actually thought of Fan Changming, this old man left him with a lot of psychological shadows. But he also knows that there are many people with the surname Fan in the world, and because of this, he is prejudiced against people, which is really ridiculous.
"Okay, the five of you will be led by Fan Siren, and the location of the story can be all over Shandong, but don't be in Guanzhong, talk about the people everywhere, sacrifice yourself, fight hard, and save the villagers...... All people and things should revolve around one theme......"
When Qin Jin said this, he swirled in his head, pondering to say it in words that were easier for people to understand. Fan Siren was obviously an extremely active person, and immediately continued: "Dare to ask the envoy, but sacrifice and dedication?"
Qin Jin clasped his palms and praised it:
"Well said! The stories you make up should make everyone feel that they are proud of their sacrifice and giving, and they are ashamed of their selfishness. ”
Du Fu, who was watching the excitement from the sidelines, had already vaguely guessed Qin Jin's thoughts, but he secretly slandered to himself, if the story is useful, the sage has been telling stories for more than a thousand years, and now it is not that people's hearts are corrupted and the ancient rituals are no longer restored?
In the end, there were seven or eight people left, and Qin Jin gathered them together to be regarded as the third group of people.
"You are in charge of copying and transcribing the stories they have made......"
For the explanation of this errand, Qin Jin also improvised it, and he also said wherever he thought of it, and he suddenly thought that there should be something matching with these stories.
"In addition to transcribing the story, we must also use the most popular language to make up some slogans and slogans, and they are not allowed to ask for anything, so that the people can understand the meaning as soon as they hear it, understand?"
The third group nodded as if they didn't understand, wanting to ask, but not daring to ask.
"The specific content should be based on 'sacrifice and dedication', and send it to me after writing it. ”
After everything was explained, Qin Jin blasted them out, leaving Du Fu alone.
"Do you want these stories to let the people know how to sacrifice and dedicate?"
Qin Jin laughed.
"But there's more to it than that. You go to the camp and choose a few suitable people, not too many, one or two are enough, and I will tailor a story for them that will make them famous all over the world. ”
After listening to Qin Jin's plan, Du Fu lost his voice and said, "The envoy wants to fake?"
Qin Jin nodded without any concern.
"The point is not to fake, but to set up a model for millions of people to worship!"
Du Fu was silent, although he felt that Qin Jin was suspected of fooling the people by doing this, but he also had to admit that setting up a model was indeed a way to try.
Qin Jin, who was in the excitement, added, "Establish a model, call on the people to learn from this one, and take this opportunity to set up awards of various names, and there will be corresponding treatment after each item." It is necessary not only to encircle them with ideas, but also to lure them with fame and fortune, and to use both prongs to melt even the iron walls! As long as the people meet the requirements according to the markings, they will be given names and benefits. ”
Du Fu pursed his lips, and couldn't help but slander again, where is this to transform the mind, it is clearly to threaten fame and fortune, even if it is not possible to reform the mind, let alone have a sense of mission to help the world.
Although Du Fu questioned it a lot, he still carried out all Qin Jin's explanations very efficiently.
Qin Jin knows very well that people are social animals, as long as they think that a path is drawn for them, under the influence of herd mentality, these people will follow one after another even if they know that they are wrong. If everyone could escape this bondage, there would be no such age-old jokes as the emperor's new clothes.
To put it bluntly, after Qin Jin improvised a lot, he suddenly had an unprecedented idea, he wanted to paint a scoop according to the gourd and make a new emperor's clothes for the people of the world.
At the time of the lamp, Du Qianyun rushed back from Chang'an.
At the same time, Du Qianyun also brought back a seemingly inconspicuous news, but it shocked Qin Jin inexplicably.
"What? Wei Boyu was dispatched to lead the new army to Tongguan?"
Du Qianyun nodded.
"Indeed, after Wei Boyu joined Yang Guozhong, he was ordered to organize and train a new army, which is different from the forbidden army and seems to be specially designed for the use of thieves. Ge Shuhan heard the news out of nowhere, so he wrote to the Son of Heaven, asking that the new army be sent to Tongguan on the grounds that the war in Tongguan was tight, and he would be dispatched at his disposal. ”
"Isn't this a blatant seizure of power? Yang Guozhong is willing?"
Qin Jin was both shocked and strange, the contradiction between Ge Shuhan and Yang Guozhong broke out without warning.
"Who said no, of course Yang Guozhong was unwilling, and expressed his opposition to the Son of Heaven several times, and even the concubine and several ladies of the country moved out, but in the end they couldn't make the Son of Heaven change his mind,"
