Chapter 209: The Way to Govern the People
"You govern the people in the Iwakura territory, you have a good political voice, and you are also quite popular among the people of Hedong. Then what do you think is the way to govern the people?" Sheng Zuixiang looked dignified and asked quietly, but his jade fingers were still firmly holding Wu Feng's jaw.
Wu Feng was faintly surprised in his heart, but then he thought that Ren Xiaoxiao had investigated himself in detail, and Di Linjian must have also been involved in it, and his own situation, of course, Sheng Zuixiang was also clear.
"Stabilize prices, provide sufficient grain reserves, encourage commerce and trade, and revitalize the economy, so that the interests of the lords and the interests of the people can be combined and develop together, so that the wealth can be used to the fullest without additional endowments. Wu Feng spoke clearly and replied in a positive voice, but his chin also clearly felt the slippery softness of Sheng Zuixiang's fingertips.
Sheng Zuixiang nodded and said, "It's very thoughtful, but don't you think it's too idealistic?"
Wu Feng asked, "What does Miss Sheng think?"
Sheng Zuixiang said: "Whenever the church is short of money to reward meritorious personnel, I encourage my father to temporarily increase taxes. If the people resisted, they were called rioters, and they were violently killed, and all their property was confiscated. When the financial problem is resolved, a part of the money collected can be used to distribute some free medicine or build a few canals, and the people's will will soon return......"
Sheng Zuixiang said: "The people are the most coaxing, even if they are not good to them, as long as they spread some good governance from time to time, and do not dry up and fish, they will still be grateful to Dade, if they are used to being too ruthless, they will become Diao people." ”
"Besides......" She suddenly let go of her jade fingers, causing Wu Feng's jaw to fall instantly.
I saw Sheng Zuixiang laughing and trembling, and her red hair fluttering: "Every family has a scripture that is difficult to read, and when I see those retainers sighing for lack of money to spend, this girl really thinks they are pitiful!"
She took it for granted.
Wu Feng's heart sank.
It is worthy of the true colors of the demon girl.
Wu Feng understood why Di Linjian was so loyal to Sheng Zuixiang. The Jin clan he was born in must have also received the grace of Sheng Drunken Incense.
The method that Sheng Zuixiang said is to put the loyalty of his subordinates first, the people's interests second, and use carrots and sticks to control the people's hearts.
Wu Feng did not agree with this approach, but he also knew that it was quite efficient.
It's not just demonic sects like the Ashina sect. Even in Middle-earth, there are many forces that choose such methods. But those rulers don't have the frankness of drunken incense, and all they talk about all day long is for the people.
And the people are as Sheng Zuixiang said, no matter how great the suffering. As long as you give a little sweetness, you may be grateful to Dade.
The kindest people are none other than the people at the bottom. And the superiors take advantage of their kindness and wantonly suck their flesh and blood. Thinking of this, Wu Feng couldn't help but feel sympathy. I couldn't help but sigh secretly.
But Wu Feng also understands that "if you are used to being too ruthless, you will become a troublemaker", which is really reasonable.
The people at the bottom are the most simple, but at the same time they may be the most vicious, and if they blindly do good governance, they may indeed become ignorant and take everything for granted. For example, after people from poor backgrounds gain power, many of them become extremely greedy and cruel, and they are particularly fanatical about beauty and money. Because he suffered too much persecution and suffering in his early years, and hoped to be compensated after success, the dark side of human nature that was once hidden under kindness will completely burst out!
In fact, without a tyrannical lord, there would be no people. However, when the oppressive relationship between the lord and the lord has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, the good lord may also be troubled by the people.
And what Sheng Zuixiang wanted to tell Wu Feng was that Wu Feng's approach in his own territory within Iwakura could only be carried out on a small scale, but it might not work when promoted.
Wu Feng actually understood this a long time ago, and he didn't refute Sheng Zuixiang's words.
But there was a sudden surge of courage in his heart.
Precedents are meant to be broken. Even if you don't know the solution yet, as long as you struggle step by step, there will be a way before the car reaches the mountain.
The world should not be like this, so let me restore it to the way it should be! Although she can be called a strange woman in the world, she must not let someone like her win the world!
Wu Feng's pupils suddenly became bright, like stars in the night.
Sheng Zuixiang keenly sensed this and was faintly surprised.
Although this young man named Xie Yi is not simple, he is limited by his age and status, and in this meeting. The aura can be said to be crushed by her.
But after she said those words, the young man's eyes showed such a determined light.
That's a fearless will—even though millions of people have gone for it!
Sheng Zuixiang didn't feel annoyed, just thought it was funny. What kind of achievements will such a beautiful boy and such a tenacious mind have?
......
After Sheng Zuixiang left, Di Linjian offered to send someone to send Wu Feng back to the white-clothed camp stronghold.
Wu Feng politely declined, but only accepted a good horse given to him by Di Linjian, and a large amount of dried beef for him to eat on the road.
He hastened his horse and hurried his horse south. He remembered the road all the way through.
It took too long to cross Luliang Mountain from Hedong County in the south of Bingzhou to the vast prairie, although it took a little time to meet Sheng Zuixiang, and Wu Feng was indeed in a hurry to go back.
Although Song Shannei and the others were indeed capable and able to handle the affairs of the Baiyi Battalion, he was still not very reassured.
However, Wu Feng's primary destination was not the city fortress of the white-clothed camp under Luliang Mountain, but the base of Ren Xiaoxiao and others, Dream Mountain.
When leaving Dream Mountain, Wu Feng felt a mysterious aura there.
It was as if in the darkness, a strange force was calling him.
Wu Feng, who already knew his physique, naturally knew what was going on.
This is the power of luck, acting in fate.
Ren Xiaoxiao's soul dancer Xie Siyuan was killed by Wu Feng, and Ren Xiaoxiao's deity was also killed by Wu Feng, which means that whether it is a flesh shell or a divine soul, it was all destroyed by Wu Feng's hands.
Ren Xiaoxiao's wisdom is extraordinary, and he has a lot of layouts, but he still lost his life. Then, most of him is like Yuan Shu, Lin Yan, and Enleko, he is a lucky person, and he was taken away by Wu Feng's unlucky body and died unlucky.
The mysterious power that called Wu Feng on the mountain was most likely the opportunity left by God to Ren Xiaoxiao, and Ren Xiaoxiao now died at the hands of Wu Feng, and this opportunity naturally belongs to Wu Feng.
Improving strength is undoubtedly extremely important for Wu Feng today. From ancient times to the present, most of the world's famous generals are extremely powerful, because personal cultivation has a great correlation with the power of tactics, and in fierce battles, if you can use the appropriate strategy and choose the right breakthrough point, your personal strength can also change the entire battle situation.
