Chapter Seventy-Two: Fear of Destiny

Originally, Jiang Hexing had already witnessed what had happened, but Wu Han's report made Jiang Hexing restless. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

What's wrong, this Zhang Feng introduced that he opened up Zheng San's way and gave Zheng San a lot of jade, Zheng San specially found a place to hide salt for them, it was his own manor, and no one dared to go to it at ordinary times, and no one dared to investigate.

Jiang Hexing listened, was speechless for a long time, pacing back and forth in the office, he didn't expect that this Zheng San would become so quick that he didn't know him.

Since Jianghexing came to Pingzhou, it has deliberately established an interest group with itself as the core, with Qingzhou refugees and Zhangjiazhuang villagers fleeing from Zhangjiazhuang as the periphery. If nothing else, it is for the centripetal force of Pingzhou to have a group of core groups that are loyal to themselves.

The rivers will give them the greatest benefit in order to be loyal. Unexpectedly, this Zheng San, under his repeated orders and every kind of admonition, actually resold salt with the merchants of Nanyang. Xianwu City merchants gathered, in addition to salt, how many things did Zheng San not do, and how many benefits did he take from the merchants?

Jiang Hexing was silent, just walking around in a daze, sighing for a long time.

Wu Han saw that Jiang Hexing did not make a decision, nor did he mix much, so he hurriedly left and returned to the barracks.

Jiang Hexing took Wu Han's report and hurriedly ordered his own soldiers to call Li Xiaowen and Liu Qing. Li Xiaowen and Liu Qing hurried over, not knowing what was going on, Jiang Hexing told him what had happened. Li Xiaowen was also speechless for a long time, sighed again and again, and did not express his position.

Liu Qingtie read the report twice with a blushing face, and finally threw the report on the table, stood up, and saluted Jiang Hexing: "Hewang, it is my poor supervision that I am willing to be punished." ”

Jiang Hexing waved his hand and said: "This is my fault, I didn't think too much about this before, thinking that relying on the loyalty of the person and relying on the higher income can stabilize the hearts of the people." Zheng San's family, military merits are not small, how much good land is there? But does it work? Hey, what should I do? ”

As he spoke, Jiang Hexing stepped up to the seat, looking ahead with empty eyes and a long sigh in his mouth.

Liu Qing took a step forward and said: "King He, don't be so worried, it's common sense that people's hearts are not enough to swallow elephants." Xianwu City is a place where wealthy businessmen and wealthy people gather, and the life is extravagant and abnormal, and people's hearts will inevitably be shaken. You can't just look at it as if you were refugees and think that you have given them enough now, that they should be satisfied, that they should obey the law. I have an idea that in a place like Xianwu City, not ordinary people can control themselves. Even if Zheng San is taken down, he will have to change someone who can defend himself in the future. ”

Jiang Hexing looked at Liu Qing and said, "Liu Qing, what do you mean by this?" Some time ago, didn't you just issue a decree restricting officials and businessmen, and the more you talk about officials in various places, isn't it enough? ”

Liu Qingdao: "The gentleman is afraid of the sky, and the villain is afraid of punishment." People are always a little afraid of something, so that they can really restrain it. Now these officials in Pingzhou, the people who fought Pingzhou with you, first of all, are not afraid of punishment, they calculate that you will not really want your life, or they will not punish too severely, or they rely on their own merits, and feel that this is what he deserves, so they will not be too afraid of the law, if they are not afraid of the law, and then they are not afraid of the will of heaven, you say, isn't this a mess? ”

Jiang Hexing stood up abruptly and rushed in front of Liu Qing, Liu Qing was startled and took a few steps back.

Jiang Hexing still grabbed Liu Qingdao and said: "It's a good point, don't be afraid of the sky, don't be afraid of punishment, this society will festering soon, it's because I was too negligent before." These people who are with me are now in important positions and control the military and political power in Pingzhou. There are no good people in the chaotic government, if these people are in chaos, it will be difficult for Pingzhou to be peaceful. ”

After Jiang Hexing finished speaking, he returned to his table and chair, pondering Liu Qing's words repeatedly. Yes, in a society, everyone is fearless, the heavens are not afraid, the earth is not afraid, and the punishment is not heavy, hey, the recurrence of hell on earth will not be far away.

Is the decree enough? No, the decree is based on social morality, which is considered the minimum standard of moral requirements. If a society has a high moral standard, laws and regulations will naturally be easy to implement, and the cost of violating the law is not only reflected in the punishment of the government, but also in the pressure from the social moral level.

Jiang Hexing pondered for a while, and said in his heart: This Heavenly Principle Dao, it seems that it has to add content, and it is not enough to rely on people's self-love, self-reliance, and self-improvement. The moral origin of a society must come from the fear of man, and the most important thing is the fear of God's will. Without fear of Providence, the human heart will always be restless. With a little achievement, he is arrogant and can't find his place, and even thinks that he can do anything.

Fortunately, in this era, everyone believes in the will of heaven, and in the way of heavenly reason, if there is fear of the will of heaven, it can be said to be logical.

Then, like the later generations, if you want people to believe in the will of heaven, you have to prove it. Even if it is proved that there is a providence, there may not be many people who can believe it.

Jiang Hexing sighed in his heart, or the moral construction at this time is relatively simple, after all, the foundation of fear of heaven's will is there, and simple guidance is all needed.

Liu Qing and Li Xiaowen saw Jiang Hexing sitting there in a daze, thinking that they had really hurt him this time, they looked at each other, and they didn't dare to say or leave.

After a long time, Liu Qing saw that it was not a problem, and came directly to the table of Jianghexing. Shi Li said: "He Wang, look at how this is, after Zheng San brings it, I will interrogate it, and I will definitely not embarrass you." I know that you have feelings for Zheng San and don't want to deal with him, so I can deal with it. ”

When Jiang Hexing heard what Liu Qing said, he no longer thought about it, and when he heard what Liu Qing said, he felt that it made a lot of sense, and this was originally Liu Qing's matter. Sometimes I don't have any responsibilities, and it's best to do the work of these people, or everyone has their own duties.

Jiang Hexing nodded, which was regarded as agreeing to what Liu Qing said.

Liu Qing said goodbye first, Li Xiaowen stayed, and persuaded Jiang He to go again. Jiang Hexing talked to him about who would succeed Xianwu City, Li Xiaowen thought about it, and for a while, there was really no suitable person to take over. It is said that Xu Lang is not bad, a serious old master, but he will go to Chang'an with the river next year, and Anwu also has a long-term plan, especially before preparing to collect the two counties, he cannot be replaced.

Jiang Hexing and Li Xiaowen discussed for a long time, but there was no one for a while, because people are needed everywhere, and now they can't draw people from the army. In the end, Jiang Hexing had an idea and said, "Let the Chamber of Commerce directly manage Xianwu City." ”

Li Xiaowen couldn't smile bitterly, and he didn't know what Jiang Hexing was thinking, so he actually let the Chamber of Commerce directly manage Xianwu City.

Li Xiaowen frowned tightly and asked: "He Wang, you just restricted officials from interacting with businessmen earlier, but now it's better to let the Chamber of Commerce directly manage Xianwu City, isn't it more powerful for businessmen?" ”

Jiang Hexingdao: "I restrict officials from interacting with businessmen, not to limit the power of businessmen, but more to restrict officials. What is the limit, to ensure that commercial transactions are not distorted by the intervention of power. ”

Li Xiaowen said: "He Wang, some of your propositions, to be honest, although I didn't understand or understand at first, I can still prove that your propositions still have some truth. But the Chamber of Commerce is not one person, it is a group of people, although there is a president, but there are branches from all walks of life below, and they are not convinced by each other, so I am afraid it is difficult to manage, right? ”

Jiang Xingdao: "Why do you want to be in charge? Let them take care of themselves, raise taxes, maintain local law and order, ensure the order of life, and ensure the normal conduct of business. It's not that difficult, is it? These rich and wealthy businessmen, they are all human spirits, and they can do that, but others are not convinced, so they must not be managed by the Chamber of Commerce. ”

Li Xiaowen saw that Jiang Hexing really planned to implement this ridiculous idea, and he was even more drumming in his heart, he didn't have much knowledge of Jiang Hexing, no matter what you said, he had crooked reasons to refute you.

Li Xiaowen thought for a while and said, "That's it, Hewang, this matter is still too big, listen to everyone's opinions." ”

Jiang Hexing nodded, this matter is really for everyone to discuss. (To be continued.) )
