Li Kuan also laughed out loud with the two.

Yes, who can give up the right to decide life and death with one word.

But it's a good idea.

Many great families relied on this trick to protect their reputation in the court.

Few of the officials of the big families in the court worked until they died, and they basically resigned when they were about fifty or sixty years old.

Either that or move yourself to the leisure sector.

Give way to posterity and make room.

At the same time, it also prevents oneself from over-indulging in rights.

The solution given by Li Kuan is to turn retirement into a fixed age.

Hurry up and go home to retire and go to you.

"It's a good idea, but I think it's more about raising the level of moral quality."

"If everyone were like me, wouldn't there be so many problems?"

Wei Zheng said lightly.

Li Kuan and Li Chengqian were directly speechless.

Everyone is the same as you Wei Zheng, don't talk nonsense.

Your level of moral quality has been done by several people in history.

After Li Chengqian was speechless, he said lightly: "Duke Wei, Li Kuan, I have different ideas from you. ”

"I think the reason why Shang Zongxian has come to this point is completely his own death."

"If he makes a fortune and stops it in time, then what will you do with Wei Gong?"

Faced with this question, Wei Zheng was silent.

After a while, Wei Zheng said lightly: "If they just make a fortune and stop it, then I will most likely not see it, and report to them a credit by the way, Your Majesty just feels that it is boring, as long as it does not affect the interests of the people, I will forgive them." ”

Wei Zheng knows this very well.

If he first came to Hebei to investigate, Shang Zongxian and others would find him, mention it vaguely, and say that they have given up corruption and are ready to increase production year by year.

There is a high probability that he Wei Zheng will look at the number of them harvested, if it is not too big, there will be one or two million guan, so he will let them go.

If the amount is very large, reaching more than three million, then there is a high probability that they will spit out some of it, stamp the people, and let it go.

When the time comes, when the new output increases year by year, he will also get a project of technological innovation led by Shang Zongxian to receive credit.

At that time, whether Shang Zong will work for two years or resign, everyone will be able to accept it, at most, he will pay more attention in the future.

Wei Zheng knew this, so he didn't refute what Li Chengqian said about death.

Because Shang Zongxian and the others really died.

I don't even believe my brothers who fought together back then.

They all fought down this Tang Dynasty together, and Li Shimin didn't let go of everyone's hands, so why don't you believe it.

Li Shimin's anger was never Shang Zongxian's corruption, but Shang Zongxian's refusal to speak directly.

"It is precisely because there is a better way to deal with it that these people choose the lowest path, so I think it is better to tell them the emperor's bottom line whether it is a fixed retirement or an improvement in moral quality."

"Or, in the future, when selecting officials, try to choose some sane ones, not two hundred and five."

The naked contempt came out of Li Chengqian's mouth like this, but Wei Zheng and Li Kuan couldn't refute anything.

All three of them knew how the situation was handled.

After a moment of silence, Wei Zheng smiled.

"It's useless to say anything."

"What we can do now for them is to help them take care of their families and set an example."

Yes, to leave an example.

The reason why a group of them treated Shang Zongxian and the other family members well was that they wanted to leave an example, an example that future generations could follow if there was a similar situation in the future.

Even he, Wei Zheng, has no way to guarantee that his descendants will not produce this kind of person.

If it comes out, the family will be doomed.

In order to prevent the destruction of the family, they decided to leave a back door to the law, which was called following precedent.

And then they set a precedent for humanity in their own time.

This is what many bigwigs from the founding of the country in all dynasties will do.

After chatting, Wei Zheng took the two back to their residence, and along the way, the three of them chatted about some other things, such as the situation that might occur after the Tang Dynasty, or the current mentality of local officials, and the personnel of the observer envoys.

Wei Zheng said, Li Kuan and Li Chengqian listened.

Both listened very carefully.

Li Chengqian was thinking about how this knowledge could be changed so that he could use it when he established his own kingdom in the future.

At the same time, Li Chengqian also unceremoniously raised many questions, and Wei Zheng would answer them one by one.

At this time, Li Chengqian did not hide the fact that he wanted to establish a kingdom of his own.

Wei Zheng and Li Kuan are not stingy people, and they all answer the questions he asks in detail.

Wei Zheng also proposed that he had made a plan for the independent operation of the Tang Dynasty's vassal states, and he could give it to Li Chengqian after he returned.

Li Chengqian and Li Kuan were stunned when they heard this.

Damn, big guy, you still have a habit of making this thing.

Looking at the surprised expressions of the two, Wei Zheng said that not only he had done it, but Du Ruhui, Fang Xuanling, Ma Zhou, Xiao Yu and others had done it.

Even Du Ruhui, Fang Xuanling, Xiao Yu and others also implemented it, and he also got the data on the operation of the three people's own kingdoms.

As for why he did this, there were three main reasons, one was to make money, one was to leave a better working kingdom for his descendants, and the other was to find out the plan for the Tang Dynasty to control those kingdoms.

The three reasons are for themselves, for their families, and for the righteousness of their families and countries.

Making money Wei Zheng himself also explained that many small families, or small forces that survive abroad alone, like to buy the kingdom development plan written by these bigwigs.

Their after-sales service also includes general direction guidance.

It's really capable, and you can make money no matter what.

This was the common idea of Li Kuan and Li Chengqian at that time.

Li Chengqian asked in his head, wouldn't it cost me money to find you, I can ask my father-in-law or uncle for a copy.

Wei Zheng glanced at him and said lightly: "Su Ji and Eldest Sun Wuji have both caused the small forces they support to collapse because of remote control, but I didn't. ”

Li Kuan was even more stunned when he heard this, the ability of these two people is too inferior.

However, Wei Zheng is really awesome.

Of course, Wei Zheng is awesome.

Li Chengqian was hit by these words.

The officials who were replenished here in Hebei Province were not in scope for a long time, and Li Kuan and Li Chengqian could not leave.

However, the two also followed Wei Zheng to learn a lot of things in the local area.

has a great understanding of some physical data, especially Li Chengqian.

Li Kuan is okay, he used to stay in the place a lot.

At the same time, the two also knew a lot, and they understood why Wei Zheng always proposed from time to time that the observation envoy should strengthen the dispatch.

People from the central government have to come down from time to time to see the prosperous Datang and understand the actual development.

However, everyone knows this, and the reason why it is not implemented is that the problem is stuck in character.

What the supervision system is most afraid of is the corruption of the supervisors themselves.

Supervisors are often the first to be corrupted.

Just like the anti-corruption department is often the most corrupt.

It's a matter of human nature.

Li Chengqian proposed to use the royal family to inspect at this time, but Li Kuan sneered and refused.

During the period when the nine sons of a certain dynasty seized the heirs, the nine princes took bribes when they went down to do things, and they would also bribe their fathers.

Royalty is not always so reliable.

Li Kuan thought about it and proposed a variety of parallel situations such as Baume & Mercier supervision, education supervision, judicial supervision, tax supervision, and commercial supervision.

Wei Zheng asked Li Kuan to write his thoughts and submit them.

Li Kuan emphasized the supervision of Baume & Mercier.

In Li Kuan's eyes, other supervision systems will have more or less problems, but Baume & Mercier supervision is the least problematic at present.

Because in Datang, there are always a group of people who are well fed and supported, but the cultural level is high enough and they don't want to be officials.

If these people go to pick thorns, the level is quite good.

These people are Baume & Mercier.

Noble births are not short of money, and they only care about reputation, and they use it to monitor is a good knife.
