"I know this, isn't it just to form a township group?" Chen Hecai said, "Back then, the Duke also relied on the township group, which was the reuse of the first emperor." ”

In fact, before the Sui Dynasty destroyed Chen, there were many township soldier organizations in the Northern Qi ruling area and the places bordering Chen, all of which were led by rural families, using the township kinship as a link to protect the land, or participating in the Pingchen Battle to gain fame and status.

"Uncle Blacksmith is right, but why are those villagers willing to follow him?" Chen Ping said, "Is it because of food?" Or to protect his wife and children? ”

Most of them are illiterate villagers, but it is not that they do not understand things, in fact, in terms of ideology, these illiterate villagers are more likely to accept the theories of others.

It doesn't need to be realistic, as long as it sounds reasonable, then they will agree. Many villagers nodded, and their eyes at Chen Ping became different.

"This eldest son of filial piety is not only capable, but also able to speak, better than my boy."

"Yes, I don't look at the plow, I can come up with that object, and my brain is not stupid. It's a pity, if you can go to that township to study, you can't say that you can also be an official. ”

The surrounding villagers talked about it again, and some people even took out a trivial incident when Chen Ping was still bare-chested and said, not for anything else, just to show that Chen Ping has such ability, and there is a trajectory to follow since childhood.

There is a basis for it.

At this point, there is not much difference between the emperor and the common people, they all paste gold on their bodies, of course, sometimes this gold is not posted by themselves, most of the cases are like Chen Ping, it is a group of people who consciously want to look different, and add it.

That is, if you don't show a little difference, you are born without a house full of purple light, there are no dragon patterns or scales on your head and face, and you don't have three breasts on your body, how can you follow you with peace of mind?

"These are all there are, but is that enough? If the punishment is unfair and the rewards and punishments are not strict, who is willing to follow him? Chen Ping said a lot, just to emphasize this, and pointed the finger at Chen Cripple again, "Now Chen Cripple has made a mistake and informed outsiders, so that others have coveted our village." This is a mistake and it should be punished. ”

"The eldest nephew is right, don't let Chen Cripple come back. His hands and feet are usually not clean, so I said that there is always something missing in the house, and this time I brought Na Wansan into the village. Aunt Li, who had wanted to interject for a long time, finally found a suitable exit opportunity, and the accumulation of years and months has given Aunt Li a lot of experience, and the kung fu of this falling stone is quite mellow, "If he is allowed to go back to the village, he will bring outsiders into the village again." ”

The attitude of one hundred and eighty degrees before and after, he was still a sympathizer, saying that Chen Ping was not close to people, and after a moment of effort, he stood on the position of the village.

Admiring in his heart, Chen Ping saw that Chen Cripple's grandmother's face turned pale again, and he didn't let Aunt Li say more, but said directly: "What Aunt Li said is not bad, the big guys are all from the same village, and neighbors should help each other." I am very grateful for this, a few days ago, at Aunt Wang's house, the big guy came to catch the thief, although it was a misunderstanding, but it is enough to show that all the uncles and aunts are concerned about me. ”

"Yesterday, Na Wansan entered the mountain to harm me. Thanks to the cleverness of Shunzi, he discovered the whereabouts of more than 10,000 people, and then he returned to the village to inform him, and he relied on the uncles. I didn't let Na Wansan snatch the prey, and I was spared the encounter of being buried alive in the mountains. Chen Ping had just finished saying this, and when he saw that the two old men in front of him were about to kneel down again, he hurriedly helped, "Auntie, Uncle Gen, if you kneel in front of my junior again, I won't care about Chen's lame business." ”

Chen Ping, the correct name of Chen Cripple, didn't know it, and he couldn't talk about respect for such a person, so he shouted a nickname and didn't feel uncomfortable in his heart.

Obviously, on this issue, Chen Cripple's grandmother did not pay attention to it, and it was clear what virtues her son had. After Chen Ping said this, he was going to kneel, but he immediately stood up straight again: "Don't kneel, as long as you are willing to talk to the county lieutenant, I will listen to you for everything." ”

"Well, I just said that. We are all one village, and we have to help each other. But this help does not mean that if a person makes a mistake, he can cover it up for him. Chen Ping glanced at Aunt Li and said solemnly, "You can't be like Aunt Li, because you don't forgive people because of a little mistake." ”

Now the villagers are a little confused, so what are they going to do? Aunt Li was even more blindfolded, she thought she was an expert in circle talk, how could she listen to Chen Ping's words today, but it was herself who didn't let go of Chen Cripple?

"So, how do you go about it?" It's okay, it doesn't matter if you don't understand, let's summarize that as long as you are tall, it will be easier to fool people, it will be easier to break through the confinement from the ideology, and people will obey willingly, Chen Ping deliberately said in a low voice, "As Lai Gong did, only by achieving clear rewards and punishments can people be convinced, and we can unite in one place, so that outsiders can't bully us." ”

With such a summary, the villagers immediately understood the key point in Chen Ping's words.

There are clear rewards and punishments.

That's the reason, if it weren't for that, how could Lai Gong be a big official now? relied on unity, relied on clear rewards and punishments, did not let the bullying, unite the villagers, and became the county magistrate.

"Aunt Li, Chen is crippled, but the sin is not death. I'm okay now, I didn't let Wan Sanmou die. Chen Ping said lightly to Aunt Li, and then saluted the surrounding villagers, "This is thanks to the villagers." ”

"Everywhere, it's all folks, it should be like this."

"Yes, yes, you'll be fine when we go."

……

This thank you, no one will be too much, Chen Ping thanked him several times, which made the hearts of all the villagers sweet, especially the old people in the village, who followed their beards, looked at Chen Ping there, and nodded incessantly.

"It seems that there is also going to be a capable person in our village, this kid from the filial piety family is a capable person."

"No, I haven't seen it before. Such a big truth, people who have never gone to the countryside school, but can read it, it is not simple. ”

The sedan chair is carried by everyone, people are like this, you respect him, he will naturally respect you. For Chen Ping, several old people in the village still have the meaning of pointing and promoting.

"That's right, that Chen Cripple is a sin that does not cause death, in the end he is from Baitu Village. Dezhi people, you are talking too much. Your duck can't say that he is lost, don't talk nonsense, although the child is lazy, his heart is not necessarily so bad. ”

"If that's the case, the duck is by the river, maybe a fish has dragged it down."

The villagers faced Aunt Li and persuaded her.

Aunt Li wondered, how could she blame herself this time?

"That's it." Chen Ping smiled in his heart and said in a low voice, "But whether this Chen cripple can be put back or not, it still has to be decided by the county lieutenant." If you let it back, you can't ignore it at all. ”

"Filial piety, his eldest son, you just say, if you want a house or land, you will give it to you." Mrs. Chen's lame grandmother once again seized on hope, "I still have five or six acres of land at home, and two thatched houses occupy one acre of homestead, all for you, as long as I can let my son out." ”
