010 Difficulties in reform
Soon, because Bodhi Zi had only ordered four dishes and one soup before, the dishes he ordered were sent in two batches. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
But there was no problem, because the food was very delicious, and everyone had a great time.
"I'm going, I really didn't know what a delicious meal is until today. But this restaurant is really differentiated, and it's not like I haven't come to eat well, but there are too many gaps in cooking skills, right? ”
Li Yuanbai, who has a little money, will also come here from time to time to improve his food, so the gap between him being able to eat this delicious food is not only reflected in the quality of the ingredients. And it's really the chef's problem!
Regarding Li Yunbai's point of view, everyone nodded their heads to show their agreement.
And Bai Yun also said with some sarcasm: "Isn't this a normal thing? Good ingredients, of course, will be cooked by the best chefs. As for those of us who don't have money, can't we just enjoy the services of ordinary chefs? ”
It's just that Bai Yun's statement is a bit excessive. After all, if the ordinary chefs in her mouth are put in some ordinary restaurants outside, they can also be chefs who can support the countertop. So their appearance fee is not low!
However, Bai Yun didn't dwell too much on this issue, but quickly changed his tone and said: "But the cooking skills of these chefs are really good, and they are actually better than you, Master, which is really unexpected by the apprentices." Originally, I thought that there was no one in the world who could cook better than you, Master? ”
"Daoist, you can also cook?" Regarding Bai Yun's sudden revelation, Bodhizi, the party concerned, has not said anything, but Li Yuanbai suddenly said in surprise. Because in his opinion, those of them who know about cultivation all day long may have nothing to do with cooking skills in this life.
"Uh...... That's right, I know how to cook, and the level is okay! Bodhi said with some embarrassment.
"Really! Then I will definitely try the craftsmanship of the Taoist in the future, but I don't know if I have this mouth? Li Yuanbai said with some expectation.
"There will be opportunities in the future." Although Bodhi said so, he thought that this day would be difficult to wait. But there's no way around it, who told him to be so lazy all along?
And Bai Yun and Chen Tianhua also think the same, one is a person who already knows that Bodhi Zi is such a lazy person. The other is that I only know that Bodhi can cook until now, which can be associated with him as a person who is too lazy to cook.
However, they will not break it, so they left a hope for Li Yuanbai, and even a hope for Lei Yu.
In this way, the five of them quickly finished eating these eight dishes and two soups. It's just that I see that everyone is still unsatisfied, and this includes Bodhi himself. So Bodhi Zi ordered another four dishes and one soup, so that everyone could eat to their heart's content.
Soon, after you've eaten and drunk enough, it's time to get down to business.
"Brother Yuanbai, can I ask you a question?" Bodhizi asked solemnly.
Li Yuanbai, on the other hand, sat slumped in a chair because he was too full, and he still had a toothpick in his mouth. However, when he heard Bodhi's question, he also tried to sit upright as much as possible. It's just that because of the belly bulging a little, it looks a little awkward.
"Daoist, you want to ask about the entrance fee, right?" Because Chen Tianhua had mentioned this matter before, Li Yuanbai knew that this was what Bodhi Zi wanted to ask as soon as he heard it.
And after Bodhizi nodded, Li Yuanbai also said a little helplessly: "To be honest, I also feel very strange about this decision, and I can't figure out why the sect master did this?" But one thing I can be sure of is that this must be related to the obstruction of our faction's internal reforms! ”
"Reform?" For these two words that suddenly appeared, Bodhizi really can't think of a few people who can successfully reform and die right, except for many tragic characters. In his memory, I am afraid that the only thing that can be achieved from this is the chief designer!
The puzzled expression on Bodhizi's face was also expected by Li Yuanbai, so he explained preparedly: "Although the gag order issued by the top for this matter, since it is the Taoist who you have spoken, how can I hide it?" ”
However, before explaining, Li Yuanbai still has to brush up on a wave of friendliness before talking.
And Bodhizi also said knowingly: "That's really embarrassing for Brother Yuanbai!" If you have any difficulties in the future, please feel free to speak, as long as it is within the scope of the poor road, the poor road will definitely do its best. ”
"Where, the Taoist is really polite!"
Then, Li Yuanbai began to talk about some secrets about the internal reform of the Tang Dynasty. But before that, he still drove the thunderstorm out and told him to stand guard at the door in case someone else eavesdropped.
Speaking of the Tang Dynasty government, which has been inherited for so many years, its biggest problem is that absolute power brings absolute corruption. What's more, what makes these corrupt elements even more unscrupulous is that they themselves still have absolute force, so that they are not afraid that anyone will dare to attack them.
In addition, another major reason why the Tang Dynasty government has reached its current state is that almost all of the previous suzerains did not interfere too much with the actions of those local officials for the sake of the stability of their own dominance.
Although there was also a sect master who had carried out a reform in the past, wanting to restrain the power of those disciples who were sent to the local area. However, his reform could not be regarded as a success, but only the introduction of a supervision system, and he immediately sent some people to visit him from time to time. This can only be regarded as a matter of boiling water, and it does not essentially curb these corrupt practices.
And even this is a very ordinary method, which almost made this sect master forced to abdicate. After all, after a long time, who wants to be supervised by others from time to time?
And it is precisely because of this lesson from the past that the later suzerains have no good way to solve this problem of corruption, or they do not dare to carry out reforms too radically, and they have always been able to maintain the rule of the Tang Dynasty government with small repairs.
It's just that the method used by these sect masters is essentially to send some people to secretly visit from time to time, and then eliminate those corrupt and degenerate disciples. Then, some suitable disciples will be replaced to take over to calm the people's grievances. These are just palliative, not cure-alle.
And when the current sect master, Sect Master Cheng Anmin, that is, Li Yuanbai's top boss, took office, he couldn't even use such a means.
As for the reason, it is very simple, that is, the scope of corruption has been expanded to Chang'an, the base camp of the Tang Dynasty! There can actually be a scandal of collusion between local disciples and disciples sent out by Sect Master Cheng for secret visits. Even a person like Li Yuanbai who can't be bought will be leaked his whereabouts as soon as he leaves Chang'an.
In this way, how can the effect of unannounced visits be achieved?
Speaking of resentment, Li Yuanbai poured a glass of wine very unhappily and took a sip.
