Chapter 66: Cooking Xiaoxian
?
The work of preparing for the enthronement ceremony is not an easy task, and many things require Li Hui's ideas. In a small house next to the main hall of the palace, Li Hui watched Jia Xu and the others busy, and also helped solve some things that needed to be dealt with by him. For a whole day, I was working with a group of subordinates on the throne.
"Lord, now that the big thing has been decided, there are only three things that we can't make up our minds about, and we need to decide on them!" Jia Xu walked up to Li Hui and put a stack of bamboo slips in front of him: "One is the name of the country, the other is the capital, and the most important thing is the third one, there is the appointment of the minister, we have written a name, the lord can take a look!" ”
Li Hui opened the stack of bamboo slips, and the first name was Xu Shu, according to the meaning of Jia Xu and others, Xu Shu was the prime minister, assisting Li Hui in handling all military and political affairs. The second is Zhao Yun, who believes that the great Sima and the great general command the soldiers and horses of the world. After only looking at these two names, Li Hui closed the bamboo slip and stopped looking down.
Jia Xu asked, "Does the lord think it's inappropriate?" ”
Li Hui smiled: "Watching the decline of the Han Dynasty, the main point is because the emperor is mediocre, I have always wondered, is there no way to avoid this kind of thing, even if there is no emperor, this country can run as usual, even if the emperor is mediocre, he can't command randomly, only in this way can the country be stable, and the society can be long-lasting, of course, I can't guarantee that my children and grandchildren are all Ming Jun, maybe there will be a mediocre person who comes to power as the emperor, but I don't want to see the result of the world's great 'chaos' like the Han Dynasty!" ”
The question raised by Li Hui is beyond the comprehension of Jia Xu and others. Since the first emperor called the emperor, he has always believed that the Son of Heaven is the lord of the world, what the Son of Heaven said is the golden 'jade' law, and the Son of Heaven is the supreme existence to educate the people. According to Li Hui's statement, the emperor is dispensable, and the emperor's power must also be restricted, how is this possible, isn't this a foundation for his subordinates to rebel?
Lu Su said: "Lord, the emperor is the son of heaven, all the people admire, even if he does not do it right, he should be a courtier, so restricting the emperor can find an excuse for those with ulterior motives to rebel, and also allow those people to gather a large force without going through the emperor!" ”
Li Hui hurriedly waved his hand and shook his head: "No, no, no, you don't understand what I mean, since the emperor's rights must be restricted, others will naturally have to be restricted, even if they want to be bigger, there is no such opportunity, Mr. Liu Ba once had a long conversation with me, I realized some truth from his words, there are three points of wonder for those who have lost the country, the first emperor is incompetent, the second military general has a heavy army, and the third civil minister has the power of the government and the opposition, you first think about whether there is a way to solve this problem and then talk about the appointment!" Throwing down such a sentence, Li Hui took Wen Chou out of the hall.
Coming to the streets of Changshan, the bustling crowds, continuous trading, and the sound of buying and selling are constantly sounding. Li Huixin did not go into a tavern he frequented. As soon as the shopkeeper saw that he knew each other, he hurriedly let Li Hui into a private room on the second floor. The shopkeeper came to greet him in person.
Without Li Hui's instructions, Xiao Er went down to prepare some of Li Hui's favorite drinks and dishes. The shopkeeper stood next to Li Hui and waited, and seeing that Li Hui's 'complexion' was not very good, he asked with a smile: "Master, why are you unhappy today?" ”
Li Hui smiled faintly: "It's a little troublesome, come, have a few drinks with me!" ”
The shopkeeper was not polite, so he did it under Li Hui's head. Xiao Er served the wine and food, set it up and retreated, and closed the 'door' of the room. The shopkeeper personally poured wine for Li Hui: "I've heard that the ceremony will be held in a few days, and we are all looking forward to it!" For so many years, you have protected us more steadily than anywhere else, only you are worthy of living in the palace, and no one else is worthy! ”
Li Hui raised his head and drank a glass: "I'm almost fifty years old this year, I can't do it for a few years, when I die, you ......"
"Who said that! The emperors are all long live, other emperors are not, Ye must be! "The shopkeeper is in a hurry.
Li Hui smiled. The words of the simple people are always so comfortable to hear, maybe the shopkeeper said it on purpose, but Li Hui is also happy, at least there is no big infamy in the hearts of their people.
The shopkeeper accompanied Li Hui for a drink. Li Hui suddenly asked: "Every time I come, you accompany me to drink, don't you have to take care of business?" ”
The shopkeeper smiled: "I have three stores, one in Changshan, one in Chenliu, one in Jianye, and one in Chengdu, one in Chang'an. ”
"Oh? So how do you guarantee the business of these stores? ”
"Hehe, in our business industry, there is such a kind of person, they are very business-minded, but suffer from no capital, I will ask this kind of person to be the shopkeeper of which points, of course, every year from the profit of the branch to reward them, they will naturally work hard, because the more I earn, the more they will get!"
"Aren't you afraid that they will get in the way, the income of the 'private' branch?"
"It's not impossible, so I have to check the accounts once or even several times a year to find problems and remedy them in time! This is the same as being an official, the magistrate rules the locality, and has to accept the management of the imperial court, isn't it the same? ”
Li Hui was stunned for a moment, thought for a while, and laughed: "Yes! Right! Same, same! ”
The more the two talked, the more speculative they became. The shopkeeper had nothing to hide, so he told Li Hui all the secrets of his business. Li Hui listened with relish. The shopkeeper said: "There is another way, take a shop as an example, although the shopkeeper is fully responsible, but in order to ensure the quality of the wine and food, the master of the kitchen is sent by me from Changshan, and he also has a part of the reward, and the bookkeeper is also sent by me, and the front and back are separated, and the one that does one and sells the one must be tightly fitted, if there is a problem, there must be a problem here,......
Li Hui ate this meal very happily, and the shopkeeper's words were not in vain. According to the shopkeeper's words, governing a country is actually no different from governing several small restaurants, except that it is more complicated and larger, and the reason is actually the same.
Leaving the tavern in a hurry, Li Hui returned to the palace from the new. Jia Xu and the others were having a headache about the problem left by Li Hui when he left, and they didn't come up with any good ways to think about it, so they were at a loss. At this moment, Li Hui's face was full of 'spring' wind and he broke in with a body of wine.
As soon as he entered the big 'door', Li Hui picked up the tea bowl he didn't know whose one and drank a few big sips first. Then he said: "I really didn't go shopping in vain this trip, I gained a little!" Li Hui told him the secret of the shopkeeper's taverns in charge of his taverns. This was the first time these people had heard of this, and they were extremely curious.
"Guys? What do you think? After Li Hui finished speaking, he looked at everyone with a smile.
The first to react was Mi Zhu, who said, "Does the lord want to use these methods to manage the entire country?" ”
