"It's not that you can become an official by working with me, this statement is inaccurate."

"If you tend to be inflammatory, you can become an official if you flatter me? No, you can't! I don't allow that to happen. ”

Wang Lanling holds a symposium every Friday, in addition to discussing some government affairs, he will also clean up people's hearts and discipline.

"Whether it is Heishui County or now Shanhai County, there are many people who have become rich because of my relationship, or have become rich, or become officials."

"There is no doubt that these people are successful, and even I can't deny the success of most of the people here."

"But the meaning of this success is different, if you think that this kind of attachment to me and being a dog to me is success, then this success must be exclusive to a few people, whether it is later or between you, you will succeed again."

"When Heishui County and Shanhai County develop well, this kind of successful case will give many people the illusion that I can also succeed."

"No matter how successful it is, in short, success is success, regardless of route. This kind of thinking is wrong! ”

"I'm going to ask all of you now, how did you succeed?"

Wang Lanling looked at his subordinates, all of whom were senior officials from various departments in Shanhai County, and they were also middle and high-level personnel who conveyed Wang Lanling's spirit and instructions.

Hu Zhong was not good at this kind of conversation, and he was stopped by Wang Lanling's question.

How did it work? Of course, I succeeded with Lord Wang!

It was Lord Wang who gave everyone here a chance to get ahead!

Such a simple question is really difficult to answer, especially since Lord Wang doesn't like the kind of people who talk about low-level sycophants.

Lin Zunian said: "The humble position is to follow Lord Wang and do your best to do things, so you can succeed." ”

Wang Lanling took a sip of water, put down the teapot and said: "I let you say beautiful things, that would go against the essence of the discussion, what Lin Zunian said is indeed a truth, I think everyone agrees." ”

"That's not all I want, why are we here?"

"Is it because of promotion and wealth? You followed me from Heishui County here, and when you came to this poor and remote borderland, did you ever think that you could be promoted and make a fortune here? ”

This question stopped everyone, if I had known that Wang Lanling would be able to do what it is now.

Not to mention the future, just at this point now, then the people who followed Wang Lanling from Heishui County to here will at least be several times higher!

Thinking about it carefully, it would be true to say that it was a promotion and a fortune, but if I had thought about it at the time, I wouldn't have followed.

Fang Xuan thought for a while, and quickly said: "I came with the adults because the rest of the people didn't come, and I felt that everyone couldn't live with the adults, so I signed up later." ”

Wang Lanling didn't know about this, "That's it, I didn't go back to Heishui County at that time, I just asked people to ask if anyone was willing to come with me." ”

Helplessly, Wang Lanling smiled and said, "If I had asked in person, there would have been more people coming." ”

Although not everyone is willing to follow Wang Lanling, some people who have been taken care of by Wang Lanling are not a small number even one percent.

Gong Yueman said: "I abandoned my family and children and came here, not to get promoted and make a fortune, but to do something to make this world better." ”

The rest of the people all looked at Gong Yueman, although most people knew that this person's thinking was not ordinary, but when they really heard Gong Yueman's heart, they still felt a little unrealistic, just like the people in the play.

Wang Lanling nodded and said, "Whether it is out of conscience or out of justice, I welcome it, but when we people gather together, we can no longer be as casual as before." ”

"What I seek is benevolence and strength!"

"Making money and getting rich, getting promoted, these two things I can do elsewhere, and I can do better, but that's not what I want."

Wang Lanling said seriously: "There are very few people who are born rich and noble among us, and there are no people who have millions of family fortunes, most of them are ordinary people. ”

"I am also from an ordinary background, although I don't understand the people's suffering, but I have always worked hard to understand and help those people."

"There is indeed a difference in ability between people and people, I admit this, but I don't want to see those who hold their interests."

"Everyone knows what I have done, fighting landlords, rectifying the powerful and mediocre officials, these are only part of the story, and I will continue to do this kind of thing in the future."

"As for why I'm doing this, have you thought of why?"

Wang Lanling continued to give the problem to the rest of the people to think about, and this symposium was a process for Wang Lanling to tell the rest of his thoughts, and it was also a way to hope that others would understand him.

However, it is now directly stated that in the future, the more people there are, the less room there will be for people to speak.

"It's because those people don't listen to your lords and are against you!" ”

Wang Lanling shook his head, "Not really, in fact, most people are willing to cooperate with me." ”

Shi Yun found that this was indeed the case, Wang Lanling had always been fighting with others, but most of the people who were killed by Wang Lanling actually did not have the idea of breaking the net with Wang Lanling, and most of them hoped to cooperate with Wang Lanling.

Shi Yun said: "Is it because those people harbor evil intentions? ”

Wang Lanling continued to shake his head, "No, most of them are actually not that smart, and like many people on our side, they just want to live a good life. ”

Zhao Gongqian asked, "Then why do you want to embarrass those people?" ”

Wang Lanling slowly gave an explanation.

"Don't talk about anything else, don't talk about the past, just talk about the present."

"At present, most of the people here in Shanhai County have made money by relying on my connections, whether it is everyone here or the grassroots clerks and soldiers below, or the people on the street and in the city, they are all making a fortune."

"Success now is not equal to success in the future, in the future, everyone will not make much money, and they can no longer make money from the outside world, so naturally it will be different."

"You shouldn't think about things that far away, so I'll tell you."

"When the time comes, people who make money will not feel that they have earned more, and the greed of the human heart is that I want more, even me, all, want!"

"Some people's problems are no longer external problems, but their own problems, they are successful people who will eat from the bowl, look at the pot, and feel that the pot should not be shared, and the cake prepared for everyone should be his own."

"I forbid this kind of person here, I have always been staring at this kind of thing, if it should be allowed to benefit the people, whoever dares to move, I will cut off his hand!"

Zhao Liangyan listened to Wang Lanling's words, although he understood why Wang Lanling couldn't get along with some people, he still didn't understand.

"My lord, if you don't deal with that kind of person, then how can these people live?"

Wang Lanling said casually: "It's hard to say, it's okay to change it to before, but today is different from the past, and it is difficult for the people around and below to go back after enjoying some things." ”

"Of course, the same is true for such people, who do not want to live the same days of poverty as before, unable to control their own hands and the psychological advantages brought by their rapidly rising class status."

"This kind of person, if he is beaten by his peers, then it is a good thing."

"If you haven't been beaten by your peers, and you really have completely united with some big rats and eaten the big cake left in the warehouse for emergencies, then ......"

"Peeling skin cramps, blood debts and blood repayment!"

###

In mid-May, the flood season has entered everywhere.

Heavy rains fell in many places in Yunzhou, and the water level of the reservoir successively exceeded the highest value in history, which was a major flood not seen in a century.

The imperial court attached great importance to it, and secret agents from all over the country successively sent the latest developments to Dragon City.

The Yunzhou government mobilized a large number of manpower and material resources to fight the disaster, and many places in Yunshui County were flooded, leaving millions of people homeless.

A large number of victims gathered in the county seat to wait for rescue.

Dragon City, a court meeting where hundreds of officials gathered.

Jiang Kedi handed over an official letter from a secret agent, "Your Excellency, yesterday...... Granaries in many places in Yunzhou Prefecture have caught fire one after another, and the losses are incalculable......"

The rest of the people in the hall remained silent, and even the sound of breathing was extremely restrained, carefully holding their breath.

Originally, the granary fire was a provocation to the emperor's old man, not to mention the granary fire during this kind of flood, which was a blatant insult to the emperor's IQ!

The old emperor was not so angry, he had learned about the relevant report yesterday.

He said slowly: "Mobilize disaster relief grain from Tongzhou, Muzhou, and Shanzhou, and the inspection departments in various places are responsible for escorting grain and grass. Secret agents were sent to assist the chief officials in various places to provide relief to the victims, and the military departments in various places sent people to rescue the victims, first to save people, and then talk about the rest later. ”

Later?

The ministers of the court are all smart people, and from the time the old emperor sent the Jinyi Guard and the six doors of the Inspection Department to assist, he knew that he was going to kill people that day.

Except for the top and second leaders such as the governors of various counties, the rest of the petty officials don't want to save the dog's life.

Even those first-in-command and second-in-command are only useful for now.

In the brothels and clubs of Yunzhou Mansion, there are more ladies and ladies from official eunuchs.

Lao Zhao has been busy these days.

But these are the things of the big people, and the little people in Heishui County who have been flooded don't care about big things.

They do things to keep them alive!
