Chapter 764: Sage
Zhang Jingyi was quite determined this time.
Be prepared for everything you do.
The future of Liaodong is already promising.
It's just that in the future, who is the world in Liaodong, but Zhang Jingyi has been hesitating.
People who have experienced the turbulent times at the end of the Ming Dynasty will probably have two sense of value.
One is that human life is like a mustard, looking at the killing everywhere, and seeing the blood flowing thousands of miles, it breeds a numb heart.
Since human life is not valuable, and since the pain of other people's hearts is a matter of course, then it is better to teach the people of the world to bear me than to teach me to bear the world.
Therefore, most of the people in the troubled times are heroes, their blood has long been cold, and their hearts have long been as hard as ice.
Because of this, natural disasters are always followed by man-made disasters, and the root cause of man-made disasters is precisely these people who take their own interests as the criterion.
But as everyone knows, in all dynasties, such heroes, there are a few people who can die well, just like the first person who proposed that the emperor is strong and strong, when he holds the power, he can show off his might, of course, he can be indispensable, he can kill, can be like a pig and a dog, and when he slaughters at will, he must not have imagined that there will be a second, third, or fourth strong man in this world, who will pull him and his descendants out, and then break the corpse into thousands of pieces.
So this path is not going to work.
Historically, there have been many sages, and these sages have been running around and promoting their own ideas, to a certain extent, in the hope of establishing a set of order to contain the former.
Just as Confucius lamented after the collapse of etiquette, he then hoped that according to the etiquette of the Duke of Zhou, a new set of etiquette system would be implemented, so that people would not decide the level through the killing of strong soldiers and horses, but tried in vain to establish a set of etiquette system to determine the level of people.
In fact, Confucius's set, in the present, is indeed ridiculous, not only unrealistic, but also distorted his theory long after the later generations of Confucian disciples grabbed benefits.
But I have to say that in his time, when the heroes rose together, the princes flaunted their might, and human life was like a mustard, the etiquette system proposed by Confucius was definitely called a sage.
The problem now is that some giant businessmen have begun to appear, these giants are actually no different from the tyrants, they are also maximizing profits, and they are also based on their own interests, if they can change a law to their advantage, they will change the law, if trampling on a law can make them profit, they will not hesitate to do it.
This has nothing to do with people's morality, but when you become a giant businessman, then your position and way of thinking are actually different from those of other people.
From another point of view, if there is no such means, without such ruthlessness, how can you stand out among businessmen and become a giant businessman?
For the same transaction, if you are a little kind, you will make less profit than other peers.
But the problem is that the essence of business competition is not a question of how much you earn and how little he earns, and the ultimate trend of business competition is that it is a game of big fish eating small fish, and the less you earn means that your ability to take risks will be weakened, and any market turmoil, then your benevolence will teach you to go bankrupt and become poor.
In fact, this is the same as the landlords in the Guannai, who are really willing to do good deeds and are reluctant to squeeze hard, which means that the income from the land is reduced, and you don't have enough food to hoard, and the normal year is fine, but when a natural disaster comes, other people's food is more, and they will take the opportunity to merge in a big way during the natural disaster, and they will hoard goods and make a lot of money, but because of the lack of food, the income has plummeted, and you even have to sell the land to survive the crisis.
Therefore, for this era, it is impossible for Jujia to be much more morally clever than the gentry, and even Zhang Jingyi feels that the moral level of the merchant may be much lower than that of the gentry, and the gentry will still take care of some nostalgia, and read some fake Taoist books, but the merchant pursues the theory of a real villain, which is a naked grabbing of interests.
The reason why Zhang Jingyi still relies on these businessmen is only because the current industrial and commercial productivity is higher and the production methods are more advanced.
It's just that we can't let it go, because once we let it go uncontrollably, the consequences will be extremely terrible.
That being the case, there must be a political entity that balances it.
A simple organization is not reliable, and it must be an organization that accommodates the Donglin Army, the Jinyi Guard, and the clerical system, and establishes a new set of 'etiquette' in this organization.
Of course, in the future, there may be people in this organization who will be corrupted, and there may be people who will be in the same league as the merchants.
But...... Such an organization will naturally have a huge contradiction with the giant business group, that is, the question of who has the final say in the future world.
What Zhang Jingyi wants is to have a group to control the giant businessmen, and this is enough.
And at present, the main development group of this organization comes from the clerical and military academies, as well as the Jinyi Guard.
In Liaodong, these three sources all need to pass strict examinations, whether it is the recruitment of civil servants or the recruitment of military schools, which means that at least the vast majority of the development group are still ordinary children after all.
Only these children are willing to change their fate and be keen on exams, so that they may only be a small backbone in the army in Liaodong, or an ordinary clerk, a secretary, or a small position of a cavalry and captain in Liaodong Jinyiwei.
Don't underestimate them, they will be a member of the class association in the future, one person may not have power, but the class association composed of thousands of such people, their interests will definitely not be the business group only for the purpose of profit.
The strategy was set, and a committee was formed with Li Dingguo and others to form a alumni association.
Then, there were snowflakes of opinions, entered the committee for selection, and after the intense selection, one by one the resolutions were sent to Zhang Jingyi.
Zhang Jingyi discussed with everyone.
Of course, this thing is too trendy, so trendy that most people just think that His Royal Highness Liaodong wants to communicate emotions with his protégés, so he wants to set up an organization similar to friendship for the purpose.
As a result, many people don't notice anything, but think it's more like something like a hometown association.
One of the resolutions was put forward by Sun Kewang and Li Laiheng, who advocated that the number of members should also be increased to the group of displaced people, not just military academies and civil servants.
There was a heated discussion.
Because Sun Kewang and Li Laiheng have very little qualifications in school, but their theories are very sufficient, the group of homeless people in Liaodong is the largest, and those rogues at the beginning are now living and working in Liaodong, although they were rogues in the past, but there are also many people with lofty ideals, and they cannot be excluded.
Sun Kewang and Li Laiheng didn't take the news of the class reunion as idle news.
They are no ordinary people.
After all, he is a person who crawled out of the mountain of corpses and a sea of blood, led soldiers, fought battles, and dealt with complex governance problems.
Although they are now enrolled in school, they are just ordinary students, but they have an extremely sensitive sense of smell and insight.
Therefore, more than 200 people who were originally born in the rogue, as soon as they discussed it, immediately submitted a joint letter.
In the founding committee, however, the matter was most intensely discussed.
Some people think that since it is a class reunion, it is enough for Li Laiheng and others to be absorbed, and there is no need to make a special trip to continue to develop the backbone among the former rogues.
But people like Li Dingguo are supportive, they think that the alumni union is not only aimed at the well-being of the common people, but now the most people in Liaodong are homeless people and the original rogues, how can they be ignored.
There was a lot of noise for a while, and the committee was also open.
Zhang Jingyi also seemed to be a little undecided, so he was busy summoning this Li Laiheng to Lushun.
Li Laiheng met Zhang Jingyi and performed a teacher salute.
Zhang Jingyi said with a smile: "In the past few days, you have done a lot of things. ”
This was meant to be a joke.
Li Laiheng said: "Teacher, the students are fighting according to reason, but also for the good of the classmates, this alumni association, not the hometown association, if it is the hometown association, everyone takes the time to come out, set up a banquet, contact the villagers, naturally should not let the homeless people join in this fun." But if the teacher has a plan, how can he keep the homeless people out. They came to Liaodong and had no relatives, and it was because of the placement of their mentor that they are now today, and for them, the mentor is really a reborn parent. Now that this student association is about to be established, what it advocates is based on the common people's life, aren't the displaced people the common people? From the perspective of students, there are three advantages to the development of displaced people, one of which is to make my alumni association a real alumni association, which strengthens its bones. Second, it will make my classmates go deep into the bottom and make me Liaodong one heart. Third: It can also be used to convey the situation to the top, so as not to make the alumni association, ignorant of the people's feelings, and there are these three benefits to promote great events. If what the teacher wants is just a shelf of the alumni association, like the gentry in the Guannai, just talking about the life of the common people, the student's statement and writing, the teacher can ignore it, but if the teacher really wants to implement the new policy so that the people of the world can live and work in peace and contentment, he must absorb the displaced people. ”
Zhang Jingyi: "You are quite insightful, but are you in middle school?" ”
"What I learned in school is actually mostly the knowledge in books, but the students came from a poor background, and there is another ...... The experience of conquest, so combined with the knowledge in the books, there is a sense of empowerment. In fact, students have been thinking about the knowledge in books, which is not the truth, not to mention the propaganda in the military academy, just the four books and the five classics, in fact, it is also a pearl of words, every word, every sentence, is called the truth. But the students discovered a fact. ”
Zhang Jingyi was interested: "Facts? ”
"The students found that in the military academy, some people were deeply touched by the same reasoning, while others just thought it was a textbook, and it was difficult to be touched."
"Why is that?"
