Chapter Ninety-Six: Encouraging the bad guys to do good deeds is the most rewarding thing
The general returned victoriously, and the hundred officials went out thirty miles to meet him under the leadership of the prime minister, which was the proper meaning.
Among the hundred officials of the Luoyang Imperial Court today, Wu Chengsi and Wu Sansi are definitely the number one people.
Listening to Yun Chu just wrote a poem for the newly built Tianjin Bridge, or only a magnificent style of good poetry, the Wu brothers naturally left the team and came to Yun Chu and Pei Xingjian with a smile to tell about the various benefits of Tianjin Bridge.
After listening to Wu Chengsi's explanation, Yun Chu said with emotion: "I thought that after the Zhaozhou Bridge, there was no such magnificent and magnificent stone arch bridge in the Tang Dynasty, and the craftsmanship was superb, but I didn't expect the two of them to be able to take the length of the Zhaozhou Bridge and go to the short of the Zhaozhou Bridge.
What surprised Ben Shuai the most was that there were so many arched stone bridges, but there were not many pedestals that really occupied the water surface, even if the Luoshui flood surged, it could overflow through multiple holes in the bridge body, and it had no impact on the Luoshui flood discharge.
You two lucky guys, even if you don't have any advantages in other official duties, this bridge alone is enough to make you two famous for eternity. β
In the face of Yun Chu's praise, Wu Chengsi, Wu Sansi smiled so much that his eyes couldn't see it.
After the bridge was built, it was not that no one praised it, but these people always praised people and couldn't praise the idea, and now, when listening to Yun Chu's first look at this bridge, he even forgot about the face saint, which is undoubtedly a huge glory for the Wu brothers.
Of course, listening to Yun Chu's account of the subtleties of the bridge, the Wu brothers felt that when they reported the construction cost of the bridge, they could increase it by three percent.
After all, this is a construction project personally affirmed by Yun Chu, the ancestor of Datang's construction industry, and the project cost is not raised by 30%, and I am sorry for the praise of the prince.
Yun Chu dismounted and walked past the Tianjin Bridge, discussing with the Wu brothers about the relocation projects they were working on in Luoyang.
"There are too many houses demolished at one time, and the project is too huge to be bought and sold, which is not conducive to buying and selling, which your brothers have suffered a big loss in the renovation project of Chang'an South City, why don't you know to repent?"
Wu Chengsi arched his hand and said: "What the prince said is very true, however, the renovation project of Luoyang City has its own inherent characteristics. β
Yun Chu said: "Oh? What are the characteristics of speaking out and listening. β
Wu Sansi said with a smile on the side: "It has a lot to do with this year's drought. β
Before Wu Sansi said a little, Yun Chu's eyes immediately lit up, and he looked at the Wu brothers and said: "The people outside Luoyang City have suffered disasters, and the people have poured into Luoyang to make a living, at this time, the wage is ...... lowest."
Wu Chengsi couldn't help but say proudly: "There is no need to give money, and the people don't want money, our brothers only need to provide food to the people, and the prince also knows that the Hanjiacang outside the Shangyang Palace has to replace the stored grain every year, although the river is affected, the old grain of Hanjiacang also needs to be treated."
Our brothers bought the old grain at a high price, and then paid the people the old grain that could be eaten as wages, so that the people worked in Luoyang and got a harvest equivalent to autumn grain.
The demolition site presided over by our brother also has a generous labor force. β
Yun Chu sighed and said: "The benefits to the dynasty are not limited to this, the vigorous construction of houses will definitely stimulate the entire Luoyang construction-related industries, so that the relatively depressed market in the disaster year will become prosperous."
Let the tax of the dynasty increase by a few points.
However, have you thought about it, your brother's original intention was to reduce labor expenses, but he adjusted the grain layout in Luoyang in the dark. β
When Wu Chenghei and Wu Sansi brothers heard about it, they immediately arched their hands and said, "Please teach the prince." β
Yun Chu sighed and looked at Pei Xingjian, who was eavesdropping, and said: "The most dangerous thing in Datang at the moment is not a bullshit foreign enemy, just like Ben Shuai's expedition this time, the heavenly soldiers are together, and the thieves will be punished immediately."
It's as easy as a group of strong men beating an ignorant child, and it's boring to say. β
Pei Xingzhen said angrily: "You mean that foreign enemies don't matter, people like you raise their hands and they will be calmed, the disaster is that our internal affairs have not been done well, right?" β
Yun Chu looked at the Wu brothers who were waiting for their tirade intently, raised his hand and patted them on the shoulder, and said, "Hanjiacang, there is a huge amount of old grain sold out every year, do you want to know where all the old grain in previous years went?" β
Wu Chengsi frowned and said: "I heard that they were all accepted by the big grain merchants, and in the end they were sold to the people. β
Yun Chu asked again: "Did you increase the price when you paid for your wages with grain?" β
Wu Sansi said honestly: "Nowadays, food is expensive, considering the principle that those who do the project cannot treat the craftsman harshly, otherwise the project will definitely have problems, my brother and I will increase the price by 20% according to Hanjiacang, and convert it to the craftsman and the people." β
Yun Chu nodded and said: "It's similar to what I thought, if I were me, I would also raise the price of grain by two percent, otherwise there would be no way to talk about reducing the price of wages.
Because even if the price of your grain rises by 20 percent, it is still 30 percent lower than the market price of food. β
Wu Chengsi was about to say two words proudly, but he heard Pei Xingjian say: "The grain merchants' old grain is also a price. β
Hearing Pei Xingjian say this, Yun Chu, Wu Chenghei, and Wu Sansi looked at Pei Xingjian with the eyes of a fool, and Pei Xingjian said angrily: "Isn't what the old man said right, the old man cares about the price of grain in Luoyang every day." β
The Wu brothers were not afraid of Pei Xingjian at all, and Wu Sansi also shouted: "Is the old grain of Hanjiacang the same thing as the old grain of the grain merchant?" The reason why the aged grain with Jiacang is called aged grain is because the storage time is up, but it is not the so-called aged grain that is moldy, fouled, mixed with sand and gravel, grain, and mouse feces.
When we first gave the craftsmen grain to offset their wages, our brothers ate the old grain in front of the craftsmen, and also guaranteed that the old grain they received was the same thing as what we ate.
It was the barnmen of Hanjiacang who pulled directly from Hanjiacang to the construction site.
When the grain merchants got the old grain with Hanjiacang, they would mix the old grain into the new grain and sell it, but what they sold was the price of the new grain.
By doing so, our brothers have really given the people three percent of the benefits. β
Yun Chu glanced back at the Luoyang officials who followed behind him, and couldn't help but sigh, among these people, it is not that there are no smart people, but for so many years, Hanjiacang has to produce so much old grain every year, but they have not said a word, and let those grain merchants profit from it without saying a word.
Thinking of this, Yun Chu said to the Wu brothers: "The reason why the people of the Tang Dynasty are still starving in the prosperous era is not that the food of the Tang Dynasty is insufficient, but that the distribution is uneven, the abundance, the wine and meat of Zhumen stinks, and the insufficient, there are frozen bones on the road."
This time, your brother took away the old grain from Hanjiacang, and he took a part of it from the hands of the abundant and gave it to those who were not going to die of starvation.
In this way, Rong Yunchu thanked the two princes for their high righteousness! β
Yun Chu said that, he was really dressed in iron armor and bowed down to the Wu brothers.
The Wu brothers hurriedly dodged away, saying again and again that this was what they should do, but as long as it was a person, they could see the pride on their brothers' faces.
Yun Chu has always believed that it is a thousand times more important to encourage bad people to do good deeds than to urge good people to do good deeds.
There is a one-in, one-out algorithm, where good guys do good things, but it's a matter of +1, and bad guys do good things, it's a matter of changing from -1 or even -10 to 1.
In particular, the bonus weight of corrupt officials doing good deeds will be greater.
So, accompanied by the triumphant Wu brothers, Yun Chu entered the imperial city with a smile, and the crown prince Li Hong stood in front of the imperial city to greet him, and personally stepped forward to hold Yun Chu's hand and said, "I miss the master." β
Yun Chu glanced at the prince and said, "Didn't you change your title?" β
Li Hong smiled: "My father scolded me for being a little child. β
Yun Chu snorted and said, "A certain family is going to get closer to the queen recently. β
Li Hong smiled: "Yes, yes, after all, what the junior brother did was outraged, and my mother was about to go crazy." β
Yun Chu glared at Li Hong and said, "You have no position to accuse your junior brother. β
Li Hong said with a smile: "Yes, yes, otherwise how can we be brothers in the same sect, but, Master, you are using force in the wrong direction, and now it is my father who will embarrass you."
Although the disciple's position is embarrassing, but let the junior brother Princess Shang, I still disagree, after all, what kind of thing Sisi is, I know too well, if she becomes the junior brother's family, God knows what she will do.
Master, Sisi really got two Gu Kings? β
Yun Chu nodded and said, "Two centipede kings that are nearly three feet long and can be commanded by people. β
Li Hong's little face turned white for a moment, and he immediately recovered as before: "This thing is not easy to let it go, right?" β
Yun Chu smiled: "So, it's handed over to your royal princess, what else do you have to worry about." β
Li Hong followed Yun Chu closely and said as he walked: "Master, Guβ"
Yun Chu said: "When you were eleven years old, we didn't seem to play the witch Gu game less, Steward Liu, Fei Jiu, and Fei San were all cut off by you with the technique of disgust with victory, do you see that they are affected?"
At the beginning, you said that with the technique of disgust passed down from the palace, you could make Fei San's buns in the big cafeteria not sell, what was the result? Feisan has sold hundreds of thousands of buns over the years, and the more they sell, the more prosperous they become.
You also said that the housekeeper was arrogant after becoming a retainer, and he wanted to use the nail book to ruin the luck of the housekeeper Liu, and you said at the time that this thing would be effective in 7749 days, and the result? β
Li Hong smiled awkwardly: "His family gave birth to two males within forty-nine days. β
Yun Chu saw that Li Zhi was already sitting on the palace not far away, so he quickened his pace and said to Li Hong: "What has been proven to be useless, why is there a sense of awe again?" β
Li Hong lowered his voice and said, "Gu King, poisonous dragonβa three-foot-long centipedeβ"
Yun Chu said: "You don't ask your junior brother how he captured those two poisonous dragons alive, and then how he captured the witch named Long Po alive?" β
Li Hong was stunned for a moment and said, "How did you catch it?" β
Yun Chu sighed and said, "Take a piece of torn clothes to cover the head of the big centipede, and then use a clip to clamp it and put it in the quiver, that Long Po was stunned by your junior brother's slap."
What your junior brother can do, you can't do as a senior brother? β
Li Hong nodded and said, "It should be able to do it." β
Yun Chu saluted Li Zhi from afar in the palace and said: "Didn't I tell you before, the more beautiful a woman is, the more she can deceive people, and the more handsome a man you derive later, the more affectionate you are, why, when you get to the big centipede, you change your caliber?" β
Li Hong said: "The more you look at the terrible things, the more useless they are?" β
Yun Chu said: "I didn't say that, the poison of those two big centipedes is still very violent, I just tell you, that thing sounds very famous, in fact, when facing people like this, the destructive power is very limited." β
Li Hong saw that his master saluted the emperor and empress in the palace every ten steps, so he couldn't help but say: "The general is victorious and returns to the court, and it is better to be domineering." β
Yun Chu sighed and said, "I can't get up." β
