Chapter 68: A Perfect World

Where does the confidence come from?

Of course, it was the education he had and his experience that gave him.

It is his instinct to overthrow an old, dark, and rotten regime, because it will bring great suffering to the people, but it will be worth it in the end.

However, today's Tang Dynasty is the most prosperous period of its feudal dynasty's life, and it is also the most reasonable way to govern under the current conditions.

In the face of this situation, it is his job to mend the deficiencies, fill in the blanks, and set a lofty goal.

This approach still has great limitations, but this is the best result that Yun Chu thought.

Who gave Yun Chu such confidence?

Of course, it was the bloody and tearful history books after the Tang Dynasty that were given to Yun Chu.

Yun Chu had no interest in such a thing as changing the dynasty.

After the end of the Tang Dynasty, there were the barbaric and dark Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, and after the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, there were the Song, Yuan, Ming, and Qing Dynasties.

No one can surpass the current Tang Dynasty, which is politically clear and the people are safe, so why change the dynasty?

Yun Chu himself built a dynasty that was ahead of his time?

This is a false proposition for Yun Chu, he doesn't think that he can compare with Mr. Faculty and make a new era out of the ruins.

Looking at the group of people around the instructors, and then looking at the group of things around him, Yun Chu understood that there was no such possibility at all.

Gentle, Di Renjie and the two are part of a firmly feudal society, and Zhong Kui is a wise man who is more important to God than man.

If you can't build a society built by a group of teachers, just changing the dynasty, it is meaningless to Yun Chu.

Yun Chu also envied Li Zhi's current social status and the power in his hands, and he couldn't guarantee that after he sat in that position, he would still keep a clear head and be more wise than Li Zhi.

The most important thing is that he doesn't have the ability.

After hundreds of years of development, there may be such a possibility, but now - absolutely impossible.

However, all this does not affect Yun Chu's heart to move forward firmly and strive for good.

Seriously, the emperor has become bad, what does it have to do with him? Whether the emperor is good or not, he has to do what he has to do.

Being a good official, doing what an official should do, saving a city that is bound to decline, lighting up a city in the dark river of history, and being the benchmark for eternity is already the limit of Yunchu's ability.

Knowing what the future of Chang'an looks like in reality, and knowing how to turn Chang'an into what it is in your dreams, this is the difference between Yun Chu and first-class talents in Datang, such as Wen Rou, Di Renjie, Zhong Kui, etc.

So, don't think too much about it, just do your best.

In the history books, the exchanges between the Tang people and the big cannibals are scattered and not large-scale, and even, the officials of the two countries are very unconventional about what kind of existence each other is.

Now, it's different, Yun Chu and the Great Cannibal have reached a preliminary official recognition, which can be regarded as the opening of commerce.

The Great Cannibal is very important, and through the Great Cannibal, the Tang Dynasty has a connection with the Byzantine Empire and even the Far West.

In this way, the Silk Road can truly become an important trade route of a global nature.

With this trade route, Datang people are no longer narrow in their perception of the outside world, and can truly open their eyes to look around the world.

With the character of Datang people who like to absorb good things from outside, as well as the habit of actively exploring the world, within a few generations, Datang people will be able to have a basic understanding of the world in which they live.

When these cognitions were generated, Yun Chu thought that the world of Datang would open up a new era.

Yun Chu did these things, no one could get a glimpse of the true meaning from them, the emperor, the empress thought that Yun Chu was coveting the restored treasure of Sassanid Persia.

The prince thought that Yun Chu was reorganizing and dredging the Silk Road.

Wen Rou thought that the reason why Yun Chu came to the Western Regions was to build the Western Regions into the back garden of Chang'an City, so that he could continuously transfuse blood for the prosperity of Chang'an.

They knew that when Yun first came to the Western Regions, the most important thing was to collude with the Great Food Country, and then use the Great Cannibal as a bridge to finally connect with the whole world through various obstacles.

The ultimate goal is to make Chang'an City a true world center.

Sometimes, it is not necessary for a politician to say everything about things, because as long as it is spoken, there will inevitably be opposing voices.

These opposing voices are not necessarily dedicated to the country, they are just opposing for the sake of opposition.

It's good to do it quietly, and after a long time, driven by countless small things, a qualitative change will eventually be formed.

Time will soak everything in.

Yun Chu sinks at the bottom of the tub, through the rippling water, you can see some sunlight, the water light enters the eye, there will be some slight tortion, the result of the bend is that people look at the outside things will have some deformation.

Yun Chu's breath was long, so after he raised his head, it was already a matter of half a pillar of incense.

This time, he carefully washed his body, which had been stained with too many sins and had to be washed clean with a pool of water in the Buddha Kingdom.

Although the water in the Buddha Kingdom is no different from the water outside, Yun Chu still hopes that the light of civilization that has just appeared here can help him.

It took a whole hour to wash, and after an hour, when Yun Chu stepped out of the bath room, he once again became a beautiful son.

The sins and bad things done in the Western Regions have been borne by the earth along with those sewage.

Yun Chu, who looked out gently, said: "I've become handsome again." ”

Yun Chu nodded and said, "That's right." ”

Zhong Kui said: "There is a big difference before and after taking a bath. ”

Gently turned her head to look at Zhong Kui's ugly face and said, "You have to take more baths in the future, maybe you will become clear-eyed." ”

Zhong Kui stroked his steelbrush-like beard and asked gently: "How long do you think it will take to take effect?" ”

Said gently: "After a hundred years, when you are washed by Wen Po and handed to your parents in the next life, it is time to test the effect." ”

Yun Chu said on the side: "Great goodness." ”

Zhong Kui said: "Ten years after you receive the taxes of the Persian Protectorate in one go, aren't you afraid of being punished by heaven?" ”

He said gently: "When the Three Kingdoms of the East were destroyed, the taxes in many places in Hebei had been received for twenty years, and since their officials there were alive and well, there was no reason why Yun Chu would be thundered. ”

Yun Chu said with a smile: "The practice of receiving taxes in one breath after ten years seems to be brutal, but in fact, it is all for the good of the people of the Persian Protectorate. ”

Zhong Kui was amused by Yun Chu's disgusting statement, stroked his beard and said, "I really want to know how to be good for them." ”

Gentle smile: "We have collected taxes for ten years, which means that in the next ten years, no Tang officials are willing to go to a place where there is no tax to serve, and everyone knows that the Persian Protectorate has been scraped three feet higher by me, and the people there must be poor."

In other words, although the people of the Persian Protectorate are currently suffering greatly, the next ten years will be a relaxed and relaxed ten years.

After all, we are taxed according to the ten-year tax of Datang commercial tax, and you also know that Datang's commercial tax is only one of ten taxes. ”

Zhong Kui sneered and said: "You collect commercial tax, not rent and commission, and later people can not collect commercial tax, only rent and commission, and the people here will still have a poor livelihood after all, I am afraid that even farming, grazing, such a livelihood ......"

Zhong Kui stopped at this point, looked at Yun Chu in horror and said, "You want to make the people of the Persian Protectorate participate in commerce and trade through this kind of exploitation?" ”

Yun Chu said with a smile: "The Persian Protectorate is located in the border area of the Tang Dynasty and the Great Food, so it's not good to do some things like buying and selling, what kind of land to plant, what kind of pasture?" ”

Gentle and said: "Their identity is really advantageous, on the one hand, they are the people of the Tang Dynasty, on the other hand, they are people of the same race, and at the same time, they are also the civilians of the original conquered land of the Great Food Country."

With these three identities, they are eating in Dashi, and Datang can take advantage of both sides, although all the money on their bodies has been looted away by us, however, they will soon become rich again, and their lives will be better, and there will be a few rich and wealthy giants coming out. ”

Zhong Kui let out a long sigh and said, "This is your blessing to the people of the Persian Protectorate?" ”

Yun Chu said: "Time flies, we don't have time to think about it. ”

Zhong Kui looked at Yun Chu and said, "Take a bath again, so that you can become more handsome, and people will forgive you for your mistakes because you are good-looking......"

Wen Wen said with a smile on the side: "With you atoning for the sins and eliminating the sins of the two of us, the results of the two of us in the future will not be too bad." ”

Zhong Kui said: "It's not two, it's three, and Di Renjie." ”

"A man of God can bear thousands of sins, just like the old monkey, who has borne so many sins, but preaches that hell is not empty, and he vows not to become a Buddha, and in the end he will definitely be recognized by all Buddhas.

You are building hell, in fact, to give people a place to atone for their sins, and it is a small thing for you to bear the sins of only the three of us. “

Zhong Kui listened to Yun Chu's words and said disapprerovingly: "The sins of mortals are no more than a millimeter, if the sins of the three of you are accumulated, they will be heavier, Taihang, Wangwu, and Taishan, the three mountains ......."

Of course, Yun Chu and Wen Rou don't think so, they stubbornly think that the two of them have actually been doing altruistic things.

Even in the process of making mistakes, I never thought about how to reap the benefits, but just devoted myself to the good of the world.

If such a person still has to bear sins, it must be that something is wrong with this world, not something wrong with the three of them.

Zhong Kui's ass must be sitting crookedly, he sits on a person's standpoint, regardless of position, only about right and wrong, this is obviously wrong.

At this moment, the life of the people of the Persian Protectorate is indeed not very good, but their future will definitely be better.

The disadvantages are in the present era, and the advantages are in the future, and at this moment, it is too early to talk about right and wrong.
