Section 599 A catastrophe caused by greed, below

The lord of the Halal Mountain, Wang Nian, admires the chief manager Zhou Chuan very much. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Zhou Chuan was originally a smart person who could read and take the imperial examination, but because of his interest and ambition, he chose to engage in a capable and practical mineral career, and he could maintain a high degree of enthusiasm and good ethics for decades to do this boring, boring, hard, dangerous and unpromising job. Such a person should be an important minister of the country, but in fact, throughout the ages, most of them are laborious deputies who are responsible for the work, or even bricks and tiles that are carried by hand. is a little talented, and the one who is the most good at playing with power and drilling camp is the chief official leader.

Wang Nian is dozens of years old, and he has been in the alternative officialdom - the military camp for more than 20 years, so he naturally understands what is going on in the officialdom, and knows that Zhou Chuan will not have a great future, and it is a great luck to be able to become an official from the sixth grade, and that's it, but this does not delay his respect for this hot-blooded chief official who still has a little bit of bookish spirit, and is deeply affected by Zhou Chuan's righteousness, and cooperates with Zhou Chuan to treat workers and their families well, and strictly restricts officers and management personnel by setting an example not to deduct military salaries, not to eat vacancies, not to drink soldiers' blood, and not to deduct workers' wages and treatment.

He was born in the big dye vat of the Western Army, he is not a good bird who has been dedicated, he can control his greed and do not stretch out his black hand, the hidden risk of this work in the mine is greater than guarding the border pass, it is easier to lose his head if he is not careful, and if he is not careful, he may lead to a big disaster.

If you want to do a good job in the benign development of the mine and complete the tasks of the imperial court, you must let the workers live a comfortable life and be full, have the energy and physical strength to work, and be willing to work hard in a down-to-earth manner. Not to mention the 8,000 troops in the mine, even if the surrounding state capital troops were all transferred to suppress it, the rotten virtue of the inland soldiers who are greedy for life and afraid of death and will collapse in the hope of the wind will not be the opponent of the red-eyed and desperate miner army.

This kind of thing happens, as the main person responsible for the safety of the military governor of the mine, he will bear the brunt, and if others don't die, he will die first. If he was lucky enough not to die at the hands of the miners, the court had to cut off his head first to ask for guilt or use his head to appease and surrender the rebellious miners.

Similarly, if you want the mine guards to be loyal to their duties, keep their own peace, and not accumulate resentment, use the miners as a punching bag, cause disputes and conflicts between the two groups, and not make trouble or even kill officials and rebel, you must also treat the soldiers well, and not drink the blood of the soldiers to provoke the overall resentment. Only by gaining the love and support of the army can we train a capable army that is like an arm, a commander, a sense of responsibility, and combat effectiveness, and can protect the mine.

Two sentences of Marquis Wen Chenghou are widely circulated in the Western Army: What is the trick of training a strong army? First of all, the soldiers must be fed, try to eat as well as possible, have the physical strength and energy, and withstand the hard training and vicious battles.

This is a personal idea, not a clever argument. It's just that the bureaucrats insist on their bad habits and make a fortune by drinking blood and drinking blood, otherwise where would it be so convenient to make money from the luxurious life of all ages? Or they are accustomed to traditional vices, numbly ignoring the legitimate demands of the lowly and ignorant soldiers in their eyes, and no weighty officials openly raise their opposition to the drinking of soldiers' blood.

The invisible prestige of Zhao Gonglian among the grassroots military and civilians in the Great Song Dynasty is unprecedented, and it is very likely that he will be the last in the special historical period.

The words he deliberately spread about strengthening the army were warmly responded to by the vast number of officers and men in the border army, representing the voices of all soldiers in the world, and offending countless civil and military bureaucrats and officials who were accustomed to drinking the blood of soldiers.

Peaceful officials in the interior do not need officers and men to have combat effectiveness, nor do they need officers and men to take the initiative to actively serve them; they can be driven and suppressed by power, ignore the pressure, and continue to be corrupt arbitrarily.

However, in the areas threatened by the rebel groups such as Tian Hu and Wang Qing, the bureaucrats needed officers and men to fight to protect their official positions and heads, so they had to curb their greed, eat less empty salaries, drink less blood, and at least slightly improve the treatment of their officers and men, so as to stabilize the morale of the soldiers. This is especially true of the border troops, who are ready to fall into a vicious battle at any time.

In fact, Wang Nian is also a member of the chief general and officer who has to change his bad habits under pressure.

You must know that the Halal Mountain Mine not only has copper equivalent to money that makes people red-eyed, but also works very hard and lives are extremely boring, and its own nature determines that it is easy to have accidents if it is not treated well, and it is not too far from the north is the Tianhu rampant area. Although Tian Hu's soldiers have not yet grabbed the Halal Mountain, the rebellion consciousness and the way out of the rebellion have widely affected the northern part of the Great Song Dynasty, and the workers' army in the Halal Mountain have potential rebellion consciousness and choices, and they have a stable and comfortable life. If the precondition of this first choice is not established, whether it is military or civilian, it is only a matter of time before a mass revolt or even a direct rebellion occurs.

If we don't treat us as people here, no one will live our lives, so we will rebel and stand on our own feet or go to the north to take refuge in Tian Hu, and use swords and guns to seize a good life by ourselves, maybe we can still be officials.

That's the scariest thing.

It was precisely because of this threat and pressure that the officers and management of the mine did not dare to unite to resist the restraint of the general and the general manager.

In addition, Wang Nian experienced the ups and downs of his career in the border army, and saw through the cold world and the humble living environment of the Great Song Dynasty Wufu caused by the imperial court's neglect and even ruthless abandonment of a man like him who had military merits but was injured and useless, and understood that the mine was the only guarantee for a family's good survival, and he must do a good job, sit firm, and be able to exchange for official treatment with merit.

This is the internal motivation of his dedication to public service. And Zhou Chuan is of high quality, indifferent to fame and fortune, and just wants to work hard in his lifetime, and likes to do things with a sense of achievement.

Some people say that if there is a trend of bureaucratic corruption in a country, the dynasty will be destroyed, the source is not in the top, not in the emperor's extravagance, corruption, pleasure, and messing around, a country can afford it, and it does not care that the emperor squanders it alone, but the people below are of poor quality, playing with power, messing around, and disobeying the emperor's greetings. When the emperor and other big leaders sat in that seat, the first thing they thought about was to leave a name in Qing history, what is money and beauty.

The problem is that there are too many emperors and political dignitaries who don't care about leaving their names in Qing history. And power is a special system of violence, the upper beam is upright and selfless, how dare the lower ones become crooked?

For the place of Halal Mountain, Zhou Chuan, the leader, is upright and responsible. Wang Nian, the military commander, can also lead by example. Not counting the terrible consequences of messing around, the other officials in the mine were infected with the righteousness of the two leaders, and were sincerely cared for and driven by the leaders, and the hearts of the people are more or less always have a conscience, except for a very few who just want to make money and give gifts to the camp to corrupt and have fun, abandon their conscience and have a black heart, and are gradually detected and cleaned up, other people also have the internal motivation to follow the good leader and work hard to make contributions.

This is the power of example. In the power system, the power of the example of the superior is more powerful and obvious.

The two Zhou Wangs are the same age, and they can be regarded as a tacit understanding of one writer and one martial arts, and they have gone through the ups and downs of the past few years hand in hand, formed friendship, and created enough to be proud of their achievements in serving the country through industry.

Just when the two thought that they would just support each other and survive in the Halal Mountain Mine for a few more years, they would reach the age when they could become officials and even enter the knighthood and retire honorably, the imperial court issued an order to change the fate of the two, and also changed the original humble and tragic fate of everyone in the mine.

In the Tokyo case, Qin Hui and his uncle-in-law Wang Boyan, as well as Li Bangyan were unlucky. White centered on the phase.

This guy and Zhang Bangchang, who was on the throne together, held the stinky feet of the old Cai Jing with deep roots in order to sit firmly in the phase, and also sat firmly in the position with this, and then naturally they fought for and enjoyed the power and benefits of the phase. Zhang Bangchang is a treacherous man, and he also pays attention to his reputation among the people, and keeps the Confucian ethics and acts introverted. Bai is in the middle, and it will not be. This person has no bottom-line principle at all in governing and being a man, and soon became obsessed with the benefits brought by power that are too convenient to get, and he is shameless at all, while continuing to pursue Cai Jing like a dog, he began to desperately think about how to speed up and increase the benefits, and make up for the shortcomings of not being able to hold power for a long time and not reaping huge benefits.

There is a small merchant in Tokyo called Ram Shi, who is treacherous, shameless, extremely greedy, and unscrupulous in business. But he has a thin foundation, a low background, no knowledge and no strong political backer, and doing business in the most typical place in Beijing, where power decides everything, there are many big officials like dogs, and there are visible and invisible power influences, control, interests, and extremely complicated divisions.

This can suffocate the greedy guy.

Bai Juzhong suddenly ascended to the top, and the scenery was infinite for a while, and by chance he met a beautiful woman who couldn't let go at a glance. This woman is the daughter of the ram, she is already married, but I don't know if she can't have children or her husband has a problem, and she has no children.

Big people have something to do, and naturally some people are scrambling to actively meet the wishes of leaders.

Beauty is a little thing. Bai Ju's subordinates were the first to see the master's thoughts, so they naturally hurried to inquire and get the woman. But it didn't matter that they bothered to break up the marriage and forcibly take it. As soon as the ram heard that Bai Xiangye in the middle of the white court had taken a fancy to his daughter, he suddenly saw the great opportunity to climb the gold and silver mountains that he had been thinking about, and he was overjoyed and hurriedly took the initiative.

That woman is also a ruthless thing in the eyes of vanity forces, and she is willing to be the concubine of Bai Xiangye if she is not a housewife, and she is ruthless and ruthless with her husband at the instigation of her father......

After Bai Juzhong succeeded, he was served happily by this girl, and he was very obsessed with pampering.

The ram took advantage of the situation, not only did he become a coveted official, but also relied on the power of the prime minister to retaliate and seize it, and it was quickly launched.

But he felt that he didn't have enough money, and in Tokyo, where the power is complicated, and the big benefits have long been scraped and divided, there is no chance of making a big deal, and it is too dangerous and troublesome to compete for profits with Xungui and other old forces, and it is too slow to make money.

Okay, that's it.

The ram is willing to go to the remote and difficult countryside barren mountains to endure hardships for a few years, and must contribute to more and faster copper mining for the country. Bai Juzhong naturally supports the enthusiasm of his father-in-law.

Besides, Zhou Chuan has been in charge of Qinghal Mountain for too long, and it is easy to form a network of corrupt forces when he stays in power for a long time. Especially in the copper mine, where mining is like digging money, one person is always in charge of everything, and it is easier to have problems, don't notice that something is wrong, and it must be a serious case with huge losses, so it is not only the country's deficit, disaster and misfortune, but also the loss of a rare craftsman.

Quickly promoting and transferring Zhou Chuan is a love and care for Zhou Chuan, so as not to become criminals, which is in line with the employment system and officialdom practice of the imperial court, and is also an affirmation and reward for Zhou Chuan, a craftsman-level talent who has made great contributions for many years, and is also a model incentive for other craftsman talents. Mobilize craftsmen to work harder to contribute to the Great Song Dynasty.

From Zhou Chuan himself, he is also fifty years old, and he works all year round in a difficult place like barren mountains and mountains, and his body can't bear it. The imperial court should take more considerate care of heroes like Zhou Chuan, and can't let Zhou Chuan, who is so old, engage in the arduous and dangerous cause of mining, and can't let him break his heart and shed blood and tears.........

In short, to remove Zhou Chuan's position as the head of the Halal Mountain Mine, the bureaucrats have a reasonable excuse to be above board, and they don't need to take action in person.

Emperor Zhao Ji listened to the performance of several officials and felt very reasonable.

He was worried that Zhou Chuanjiu had grasped the dominant power of the Qingzhen Mountain Copper Mine for a long time, and had secretly constructed a network of interests that devoured the benefits of the mine.

This suspicion cannot be declared.

As an emperor, if he said these heartfelt words in public, it would greatly chill the hearts of his courtiers who served the king loyally, and discourage officials from serving the country loyally. Prime ministers and figures cannot casually and unreasonably suspect and say such chilling words, and they cannot express such attitudes. Other officials can say it, but if they say it, the emperor wants to criticize him in exchange for people's hearts.

Zhao Ji is the emperor, and this bit of common sense and imperial skill is not lacking. Not only is it not lacking, but it is also very proficient and plays well.

The officials who took the initiative to be a gun also understood that it only took a little bit to open the suspicion of the smart emperor, and the goal was achieved.

Zhao Ji also woke up, indeed as the official said, the Halal Mountain copper mine vein has been basically identified, the operation of the past few years, the mine has gathered relevant talents from all over the Great Song Dynasty, has formed a mature, stable and effective management team, no longer need Zhou Chuan this kind of big expert to continue to guide and lead the operation of the mine, only need to send a loyal and capable official to sit in charge of the general management, the specific business has the following experienced managers to assist the general manager in charge of production, the mine will be as usual.

Superstitious people can do everything, and this kind of thing is still prevalent in the 21st century. This is especially true in a country where only the ruler prefers the rule of man. In J's ignorant, backward and paranoid Great Song Dynasty, it was even less of a problem.

The Great Song Dynasty dared to insist on leading the army to fight a war with civilian officials who were not familiar with military affairs, and firmly believed that civilian officials had this ability, and firmly believed that civilian commanders could not fight well, so the military generals who were vulgar and unliterate and lacked the overall situation and farsightedness were even worse, and it was nothing for a layman to replace the petty officials in charge of the mining area.
