The lunch was made by Fang Monan, grandma, mother, Qiu Lian, Aunt Lian, and Fat Aunt together, with the advancement of cultivation and the increase of strength, she is now no longer a problem with the pot and spoon. The posture is chic and handsome, and the eyes of the four of them blink reluctantly.

Qiu Lian muttered to herself with envy on her face, "You can do the same with rice!" ”

Aunt Lian smiled and said, "I've learned a lot, and I'm also good at cooking!" ”

In fact, the food on this farm was not rich that day, but because it was more refined during the New Year, Fang Monan also carved and carved.

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

Braised pork, braised pork ribs, smoked bacon, plum cabbage button pork, Kung Pao chicken, pickled pepper beef, stewed beef brisket with tomatoes. Braised prawns, boiled fish, roasted eel with garlic, steamed Wuchang fish, scalloped black-bone chicken, three-cup chicken, shredded apple fish fragrant eggplant, mapo tofu.

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

Grandma saw the carrot carved flowers and smiled, "This is really, carrot carving, I can't eat it." ”

"Hehe...... Fang Monan scratched his head, "It's a holiday!" It's booming, it's a festive picture! ”

"Eat!" Grandma gave an order, and everyone picked up chopsticks and began to feast.

After the meal, Fang Monan and the others moved to the living room, and Fang Monan looked at a few gift boxes placed on the coffee table - mostly tea, but also cigarettes and alcohol, "Tut...... This is truly a Chinese characteristic - unique. She frowned, "These gifts are really good, and this gift can only be sent to people's hearts." Such...... Dad, they all know that you don't drink or smoke, so why are you sending this. ”

Fang Monan hurriedly opened the cigarette and alcohol box, "Look! Sure enough, there's a cat hidden underneath! ”

Everyone watched Fang Monan take it out. Others also began to unpack gifts, some unpacking cigarettes and alcohol, some unpacking tea leaves, and some unpacking beautifully packaged biscuit boxes. Some are greasy, and some are just simple gifts. Such as cookies. You should know that if your father has children at home, he will definitely like to eat.

Count it, and there are 10,000 pieces! "What to do!" Fang Monan raised his eyebrows and asked. "To be an official is to make money quickly!"

"Nannan!" Dad scolded, suppressing his anger, "How can this person think about taking the wrong path, and not taking the right path." ”

"Zhengping, what are you angry about? This has been going on since ancient times. My family Nannan is not wrong. Mom said, "This person has done it all." Still not good, let's say! ”

Han Zhiqian also said, "This is normal! For the government to eat cards to take want, are all included in our public relations expenses. ”

Xiaomei said with a smile, "There is such a sentence, 500 yuan to register, 1,000 yuan to register, 10,000 yuan to get a hat." ”

"Hey! It was once said, 'To govern is to govern.' Courtesy, righteousness and shame. The four dimensions of the country, the four dimensions are not open, and the country will not be a country. If the ministers are incorruptible, shameless, greedy, and misbeneficial, and the country has no way to govern them, then the world will be in chaos, and the people must be Li Zicheng. It's only been so many years! Old Man Lin sighed.

Fang Monan stuck out his tongue and said, "The so-called official rule." That is, the ruler also; That is, the governance and management of the cadre team. The purpose of governing is to govern the country. When the officials rule clearly, the country will prosper; If the government is governed, the country will be poor and backward, and the people will have no livelihood. This is a truth that has been repeatedly proven by countless historical facts over thousands of years in ancient and modern times, both in China and abroad. "This is pediatrics, and the severity of the future generations can be said now, and it can scare people to death. Now it's more of a disbelief!

Old Man Lin patted his father on the shoulder and said, "The rule of officials refers to the ugly phenomenon in the selection and appointment of people, but its core problem is nothing more than selling officials." If you look at the 24 histories, you will find that this problem existed in each dynasty to varying degrees. Even if the rulers are as clear as the early Tang Dynasty, I think there are places you can't see. ”

Fang Menan agreed, "Human nature is like this, opening history books are everywhere, and those that have been written down and recorded in history are just a drop in the bucket. The open selling of officials first appeared in the Eastern Han Dynasty. Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty opened the West Mansion to sell officials publicly, 4 million stone officials, 20 million stone officials, 20 million stone officials, 5 million to 10 million officials, and the county order was priced according to the barren land in the county. The rich get the money first, and the poor pay twice as much when they get to the office. ”

Old Man Lin said solemnly, "The essence of this phenomenon of selling officials and buying officials is four words: 'power and money trading'; That is, buying official power with money, and then making a lot of money with official power, both parties are doing high-profit business. Therefore, many treacherous and profit-seeking people are like flies chasing away the smell, like mosquitoes sucking blood, and they are eager to do it, and they never get tired of it. In the long run, no matter how clean a politics is, it will become a money politics, and no matter how honest a government is, it will become a copper-smelling government. The entire government will form a traitorous party to control power and use public power for personal gain; Zhongliang was miserably reprimanded, and faced with the ** situation where the evil forces were powerless. The final result must be: the common people who could not survive could not bear it anymore, and they rose up one after another to rule in darkness and died in the raging anger of the peasant uprising. ”

Dad said, "We're definitely not ......."

"Poof......" The water in Xiaomei's mouth sprayed all over the ground. Han Zhiqian hurriedly took a tissue to wipe her. "I'm sorry to ......," Xiaomei said shyly.

The facts are in front of us, and my father really can't talk nonsense with his eyes open.

Mr. Lin also said, "It is very terrible to govern officials, undermine the selection criteria for officials (or cadres), and breed a 'selfish virus' in the principle and mechanism of selecting and appointing talents, resulting in the leaders and departments in charge of organizational personnel work suffering from 'visual disorder', so that they consciously use the 'black and white upside-down method of identifying and employing people' in their work." ”

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

Han Zhiqian said, "Poisoning the social atmosphere, reversing the correct value orientation and moral concept of the society, and leading the minds and spirit of the masses of the people into the wrong path of money worship, individualism, the pursuit of power and profit, and the yearning for power for personal gain, have caused the entire society to suffer from 'moral decline and mental decay.'" ”

Fang Monan said, "The superstructure of society is infected with 'osteopathy', so that mildew and deterioration, and finally embark on the ghost road of human death." ”

The corruption of later generations is jaw-dropping, hundreds of millions at every turn, you must know that these hundreds of millions are accumulated in small amounts, not overnight, why can you still add officials to the knighthood, my mother is right, just a grasshopper on a rope.

Naked officials are everywhere, and they want their assets to be made public? The property is abroad! The Republic of China is the period of the 'four major families' corruption**! Their money has been deposited in the United States, but the illegal assets in the United States that were permanently frozen by the United States in 1949 are estimated by the most conservative methods to be at least more than 2 billion US dollars, according to American experts who study the history of the Republic of China, based on a small number of declassified archives in the mid-80s. Don't think it's small, but the purchasing power was quite strong at that time. Among them, Song Meiling has 250 million US dollars in her name, not including 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 it will have to be returned, and it is the people's fat and people's ointment! It's just that the Americans froze, and the Chinese people can only sigh with admiration. Americans are stupid, 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. **Not terrible, what is terrible is the whole society**, in the past, the Kuomintang was officialdom**, and there was no ** in the academic, cultural, press, and business circles, and everywhere. However, the most terrible thing is not these, but the declining trend in later generations, is the education of primary school students: my mother gives a gift to the teacher, otherwise it will not be good for me. Today, when we talk about fairness and justice, we feel that it is not good enough now, but now kindergarten students or middle school students come up, do they think this thing is very bad? I'm afraid not, they feel that everyone in this is like this, and accepting such a concept, this is the most terrible thing.

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

"Killing can't solve all problems, and not killing will fuel the trend." Old Man Lin frowned and said, "Zhu Yuanzhang hates corruption, his methods are cruel!" can still be corrupted one after another, Yongzheng is the emperor, with a high salary and honesty, it is not the same. ”

"Killing chickens and respecting Buddha is that you can't control corruption! Governing the country first governs the officials; After governing the people, the government obeyed the people; The country is strong and invincible. Fang Menan said slowly.

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

Rule of law! Can it really be cured? At the beginning of man, he was greedy. The demands of the common people are very low, very low. The hatred is not rich, but unkindness; It is not the officials who hate it, but the corruption; It is not power that is angry, it is unjust; It is not the prime minister who is angry, but the traitor. It is not food that worries, but health; It's not housing that's worried, it's inflation; It's not the smog that's being feared, it's the pollution; What I am afraid of is not old, but helpless.

Later generations did not know if they would be able to solve such a vast and complex project.

Fang Monan didn't pay attention to the follow-up of this matter, this has to be solved by his father, and there may be a lot in the future. Whether he is a special case or a light and dust is up to him. No matter which path it is, it's not easy to walk.

Being with light and dust was originally a concept in Lao Tzu's "Tao Te Ching". Lao Tzu advocated success and retirement, that is, not taking credit, not pursuing fame and fortune excessively. Think this is the way of heaven. The so-called way of heaven, such as the sun, the moon, the day, the night, the cold and the summer, the autumn and the winter, all naturally completed its life tasks, and then quietly disappeared without a trace. So in life, how should we be able to move appropriately and not lose it?

Buddhism famously said: The sublime will fall, accumulate and dissipate; The party will eventually part, and there will be a life and death. What does that mean? The higher you climb, the harder you fall, and the high place is not cold, and when you go to the extreme, the extreme of things will be reversed, which is a natural truth. The more it accumulates, the faster it dissipates, and we all come and go naked, who can be careless? But you don't care, you don't care. Nothing can be taken with you anyway! Even if it is a mountain of gold and silver, isn't it an empty joy? Thousands of miles to build a long shed. There is no feast that will not be dispersed, no matter the wife and concubine, the filial son and grandson, after all, they will be separated from you. Because we are all sentient beings, there will be life and death! This is a natural truth. But who can remember these simple truths. (To be continued.)
