Chapter 233: What? Now Cao Cao is in a hurry?
"Cao Shuo, aren't you recruiting shipbuilders now? Do you want us to attack south now? ”
At this time, Cao Cao asked Cao Shuo with a confused expression.
Cao Shuo's recent recruitment of shipbuilders has spread throughout Xuchang.
And for one point, Cao Cao himself was also very puzzled.
He originally thought that Cao Shuo was going to build a ship, and the next step was to directly attack the Jiangdong area.
But now......
This kid didn't move at all?
"Haha!"
Cao Shuo smiled and said: "My shipbuilding, the target is really not Jiangdong ......"
"Huh? So where are you trying to crusade? Could it be a Goryeo clan? Cao Cao still felt a little confused.
It stands to reason that Cao Shuo's invention of any weapon is definitely purposeful!
"I don't even want to care about the Goryeo clan, just find a time to destroy it." Cao Shuo said with a slight smile.
"Ah, this ......"
Cao Cao continued to ask with a confused expression: "Then where do you want to go shipbuilding?" ”
"My goal...... It is the sea of stars, the edge of the mountain, and the end of the world. ”
Everyone: "......"
"Huh?"
Hearing this, Cao Cao was at a loss.
Why does this sound so high?
"Dad, do you remember what I said at the beginning?"
Cao Shuo stood up and said to everyone proudly: "My dream in the future is to let the steps of the big man step on every inch of the world!" ”
"This ......"
Listening to Cao Shuo's words, everyone was directly shocked and didn't know what to say.
How great is this dream? And when Cao Shuo's dream was really completed, how spectacular was that scene?
At that time, the Han nation was truly strong.
At this time, everyone was shocked in their hearts, Cao Shuo is now at such a young age, and his heart is not only a country, but a nation.
"Haha!"
At this moment, Cao Cao laughed: "Son, when the time comes, grab all the beauties in the world!" ”
Then after Cao Cao finished laughing......
Cao Cao found that everyone, including Cao Shuo, was looking at him with a strange look.
This scene...... Ahem, it's a little embarrassing.
"Ahem!"
In order to alleviate the embarrassment, Cao Cao had to cough twice.
How could he accidentally say his true words directly?
"Lord, now that Gongzi Cao Shuo is here, should we talk about filial piety this year?" At this time, Mao Jue jumped out, and he also specially found a step for Cao Cao.
During the Three Kingdoms period, filial piety and honesty were actually a system for selecting officials.
"Indeed, now is the time."
Cao Cao hurriedly said: "I think the selection of officials is still very necessary, is the list available now?" ”
"I don't think so!"
At this moment, Cao Shuo stood up directly, glanced at everyone and said, "Everyone, I have always had a question, that is, is a person with filial piety really a good official?" ”
"Huh?" Hearing this, everyone's hearts trembled slightly.
In fact, Cao Shuo wanted to change the various systems of the Three Kingdoms period very early, but he had no chance.
And filial piety has always been a toxic policy.
In fact, the policy of selecting officials has been handed down since the Sui and Tang dynasties, and from a macro point of view, this has sent a lot of talents to the imperial court at that time.
But in fact, there are still many people who put on a show, for the sake of the so-called fame, they are keen on foolishness and filial piety, and the whole society is in a miasma.
For example, in that period, whoever had a parent who died began to observe filial piety.
The longer the filial piety is kept, people feel that the person has filial piety, and they begin to frantically elect him.
And when keeping filial piety, there are also many rules, such as what you can't light a fire, you can't buy new clothes, and you can't have sex with you......
In order to show his filial piety, he even built a small house next to his parents' grave and spent eight years in it.
At that time, many people were very touched by this operation, but later it was discovered that this person had four or five children......
After eight years of filial piety, there are so many more children?
The white hats you wore are now green?
Therefore, this system of electing officials with filial piety and honesty is actually a joke of the century.
"This ......"
When Cao Cao heard this, he also involuntarily touched his beard.
In fact, he himself is full of doubts about this system.
Cao Cao has many shortcomings, but one of his advantages is that he cherishes talents very much.
You must know that Cao Cao has always been a meritocracy in employing people.
It can be said that as long as you are by Cao Cao's side and say that you are capable, Cao Cao will not use it.
But filial piety is ......
With Cao Cao's concept, three sticks can't hit together.
Just by virtue of a person's filial piety, even if he does not divide the grain, does he still have the qualifications to be an official?
That's a big joke!
But if we talk about reform......
Cao Cao didn't know how to start.
After all, this is a rule handed down by an ancestor.
"Master Cao Shuo, I don't know if you have any opinions or suggestions?" At this time, Mao Jue asked Cao Shuo again.
Mao Jue is actually a little fan of Cao Shuo.
For Cao Shuo's various suggestions, Mao Jue himself admires and respects them very much.
"Hehe......"
Cao Shuo smiled slightly, and then said to everyone: "You don't know if you have heard of the exam?" I think this is a good way to do this, and I can take this opportunity to completely abolish filial piety! ”
"Huh? Examination? What is an exam? ”
Hearing this, everyone was confused.
"Hehe, the exam is for everyone to pass the exams, and then test their true talents, and then use them to govern the world!"
Cao Shuo glanced at the crowd and continued: "Their grades can also be used as a criterion, the highest score can be given a good position, and then down in turn, until the end of the harvest, in this way, we can ensure that those who have real talents and real learning will run the country, which is also a little more reassuring." ”
"This ......"
Everyone looked at each other and felt that what Cao Shuo said was really reasonable.
But if you really want to do that......
What a blow to tradition!
There must be many people who are not convinced in their hearts, and may even demonstrate or rebel!
"That's a good idea, but it's ......"
Cao Cao touched his beard and said, "There may be a lot of opposition at that time, Cao Shuo, what do you think about this!"
Cao Shuo smiled and said, "I naturally have a plan for this!" Since ancient times, the reform of the law has naturally involved the interests of some people, but now, we need this kind of courage to make our country better by impacting the tradition! ”
"This ......"
Hearing this, everyone gasped.
And if you do...... I don't know how many people in the court today will have nothing to eat!
