Slander is slander, but Tang Jin is still very serious about listening to the class, although he has been able to memorize the four books and five classics explained by Tan Lao, but memorization and understanding are two different things, it is estimated that in the past four years of study, it is indispensable to assess the commentary on the scriptures, and it is still necessary to listen to it, anyway...... It's not that hard, listen to it once and remember it.

As a result, Tang Jin, who was a humanoid tape recorder, listened to the whole lecture with great interest, not only did he not have the slightest impatience or sleepiness on his face, but he looked unsatisfied. In Tan Lao's opinion, he couldn't help but praise him in his heart, and praised him for being pious and studious, but Tang Xu, who knew Tang Jin well, knew that this guy was eighty percent in order to save trouble in the future, and he wanted to listen to it all at once, anyway, for him, listening to it once was equivalent to learning it thoroughly.

Of course, if all the students here are ordinary students, they will still get out of class, but all the people here are all sons of each family, not to mention, they all have real energy, not to mention going to class in a row, that is, they will not be sleepy after a day and a night in school.

"After the commentary is finished, the next step is current affairs. I will put forward some common problems in the government, and then I will give you a solution to it, and the method is not fixed, but you can express your own opinions, as long as you can solve the problem in the end. Tan Lao explained. Everyone showed an expression that they already understood, obviously this was what they were learning every day, and Tan Lao only explained today, just to take care of Tang Jin and the others.

"Then the first question, there is a drought in a county in the Western Regions, the people are struggling to make a living, and the relief food of the imperial court is late for some irresistible reasons, if you are a Qincha, how should you appease the people? And to preserve the credibility of the imperial court? After Tan Lao finished speaking, the students below lowered their heads and thought about it, and some of them frowned deeply. Obviously, this question is not easy to answer, after all, most of the people at the bottom are ignorant, they only know that it is your court that sends late food, so they don't care if you have any irresistible reasons, and it is not easy to appease the people and maintain the credibility of the court.

None of the people answered, but Tan Lao nodded with satisfaction, this question is not simple, with their current ability, they definitely have to think about it, no one directly answered it, and he was very pleased. Suddenly, Tan Lao saw a disdainful and even yawning presence in a group of sad-faced guys, as if this topic that stumped everyone was just a pediatric for him.

"Tang Jin? I look at you, it seems that I am confident, but I have the answer? Although Tang Jin was very satisfied with the way he listened carefully to the lecture just now, but one yard is one yard, and now his appearance is like a man who doesn't know the height of the sky in Tan Lao's eyes.

"Of course, do you still need to think about such a simple topic?" Tang Jinyi

The face looked at the old man as a matter of course. In fact, he had already thought of the answer before the other party finished the question, but he didn't say it because he didn't know whether this question was answered by Tan Lao by name or by himself, because when he saw that no one raised his hand, he thought it was a roll call, and now it seems that it ...... It doesn't seem to be.

"Oh? In that case, let me tell you what you think. Tang Jin said a word, Tan Lao decisively classified him into the range of the sky and the earth, and wanted to teach him a lesson, so he followed him.

Tang Jin was not hypocritical, nodded and stood up, spread his hands and said, "Actually, this matter is really easy to solve, as long as you borrow something from the local county guard." ”

"Borrowing something? What to borrow? Tan Lao, who had been in the court all his life, had obviously never heard of such a solution, and immediately said curiously.

"Lend his life." Tang Jin said in a flat tone, as if he was just talking about something worthless, and without waiting for others to ask, Tang Jin explained by himself: "If the grain is late, first send someone to arrest the county guard, and then behead him in public on the charge of embezzling the disaster relief grain, and at the same time arrest several well-known local wealthy businessmen and kill them on the same charge, and then say that the imperial court has recovered the disaster relief grain they have embezzled, and now they will open a warehouse to release the grain." At this point, the people's grievances can be settled, and the people's hearts can be settled, and at the same time, it not only maintains the credibility of the imperial court, but also invisibly increases the people's gratitude to the imperial court, after all, it is the imperial court that helps them punish corrupt officials and recover life-saving food ......"

"Ridiculous!" Before Tang Jin could finish speaking, a young man in Chinese clothes stood up and refuted: "Your method is simply ridiculous! If the county keeper is really a corrupt person who bends the law, if the county guard enforces the law impartially and is honest and honest, but you plant blame for personal interests, not to mention the harm of people's lives, and ruin people's reputation, you have been relieved of the siege for a while, have you ever thought about how the county guard's wife, son and daughter can deal with themselves? and those businessmen who were innocent were unjustly killed by you. If you really implement this method according to yours, wouldn't it make me feel cold when I am a hundred civil and military officials and businessmen in the Tang Dynasty? ”

The other party's refutation obviously touched the hearts of everyone present, and everyone nodded their heads in reconsideration, and at the same time looked at Tang Jin with an unkind face, and even Tan Lao's face was a little more displeased.

Tang Jin didn't care about this in the slightest, just looked at the young man like an idiot, "This classmate, use your brain before you speak." What do you mean by my personal interests? Killing the county guard and killing the rich businessmen is to appease the people, which is the interest of the imperial court! In addition, I don't know if you have heard of a saying called 'the king wants the minister to die, the minister has to die', the court needs his life to consolidate the hearts of the people, as a courtier he should offer, if there is the slightest reluctance, it is disloyal to the country, at the big word, it is treason, kill a traitor...... What's wrong? As for the rich merchants, heh, 'No

Have you ever heard of it? That guy on the rich side doesn't have a man or two in his hands or a felony that can lead to death? They don't kill them on weekdays because they can pay taxes to the court, and they are a hen that lays golden eggs, but now the court doesn't need golden eggs for the time being, but needs vegetables to appease the guests, so they naturally have to be killed. ”

After saying this, before the guy could argue, Tang Jin continued: "Finally, you said that doing so would chill the hearts of hundreds of officials. It's cold, it's cold, what's the big deal? The one who didn't want to himself took off his hat and got out! What is a high-ranking official of the dynasty and a high-ranking official, to put it bluntly, he is just a domestic slave of my Tang family! Three-legged toads are not easy to find, and there are many two-legged scholars who want to be officials. As for the ability...... Oh, a group of young people who are full of vigor and strong learning and acceptance ability, and a group of old guys with chaotic heads and stubborn thoughts, which are more beneficial to the imperial court, do you still need me to teach you? As for the merchant's heart, let me tell you this, a sage once described the merchant as saying, 'When the profit reaches 10%, there are people who are ready to move; When the profit reaches fifty percent, some people dare to take risks; When the profit reaches 10%, they dare to trample on all the laws of the world; And when the profit reaches thirty percent, they are not even afraid to die. Therefore, as long as I, Datang, can let them make money, they will not care about the death of one or two colleagues at all, but will thank the imperial court, because those people die and there will be fewer people to share with them. ”

"You...... You...... You are ridiculous! It's ridiculous! You're full of gibberish! Disgrace to the name of the saints! The young man faced Tang Jin's reasoning, and the only way to deal with it was to keep buttoning his hat and scolding, and he couldn't think of a rebuttal.

"I said, don't just curse, do you have a reason why you say I'm ridiculous?" Looking at the other party's appearance of wanting to kill himself but unable to do anything, Tang Jin felt a burst of relief, and even deliberately provoked.

"Who said there was no reason?" The young man seemed to be stimulated by Tang Jin.

"Oh roar? There is a reason for you to say, let's talk about it, what is the reason? Tang Jin looked at each other with a smile, and said in his heart: "Sample, just the summary of the 5,000-year-old history and civilization of human society that your brain can argue?" Not to mention, Uncle Ma's "Capital" tells you to be a man every minute. ”

"You...... Your theory...... It is contrary to the words of the saints! After holding back for a long time, this guy finally only popped up with such a reason that has extremely wide applicability.

"Joke, saint...... Sort of a fart! Tang Jin said disdainfully.

The bland words calmed everyone like a bomb, and a group of young people looked sideways, as if they couldn't believe what Tang Jin had just said.
