"Hahaha, Chen Zichuan can say that he is a middle-class person, but I can say that there is something wrong with mediocre people?" Jian Yong half-paralyzed in his position laughed and cursed.
Jian Yong himself is a person who doesn't stick to trivial matters. In official history, he can do things like half-slumped on the couch and talk to Liu Bei about business matters. After knowing Chen Xi for so many years, he naturally has no restraints. Naturally, his backhand is a wave of black history.
But after he finished speaking, he seemed to feel something, and he couldn't help but marvel, "It's amazing, it's amazing. Before I knew it, I actually dared to compare myself to Chen Zichuan."
"Okay, okay, you two should stop teasing each other, Xianhe, I have to trouble you to move forward with this matter." Liu Bei comforted Chen Xi and Jian Yong, saving the two of them from causing trouble.
"I will try my best. I didn't understand why Gongyou was like this before, but now I understand. Sometimes people will inexplicably have an extra goal that they need to strive for throughout their lives." Jian Yong waved his hand and said.
Among the twelve elders, Sun Qian worked the hardest before. Sun Qian rarely returned to Chang'an all year round. He was either building roads or building bridges. He didn't even bother to take charge of his daughter. Now Jian Yong also understands that Sun Qian That kind of thinking.
Compared with Chen Xi and others who are good at planning and describing the future blueprint from a framework, Jian Yong and Sun Qian are good at practical things. If they are not good at planning and design, then they should do what they are good at. A ruler is shorter and an inch is longer. This has always been the case.
"It will be harder in the future." Chen Xi said quietly.
"So what, I don't have any concerns. Gongyou still has concerns after all." Jian Yong said nonchalantly, "And to be honest, if I had an heir, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to do this. Gongyou's affairs are limited to us." Even if you say it behind closed doors, you will know it from your heart."
To say that Sun Qian really doesn't know is to look down on Sun Qian. At most, Sun Qian knows, but Sun Qian doesn't know that his daughter has done so much.
After all, she is his only daughter, so there is nothing to say in Sun Qian's tricks to make his daughter's life better. After all, Sun Qian studied under Kang Chenggong, and Zheng Xuan is a master of Confucian classics, and Zheng Xuan focused on it when he was studying. It's the ram.
The Gongyang theory includes the classic theory of great revenge, the theory of the emperor and one prince, and the mutual concealment of father and son. Sun Qian gave his daughter a certain way out despite his selfishness, which was logically in line with the thinking at the time.
More importantly, if Sun Qian had not been too busy and Sun Min had rebelled against others, it would have been impossible for the trouble to reach that level.
Chen Xi understands, Jia Xu understands, and even Man Chong understands. Man Chong learned from Legalism, but this era is Gongyang Spring and Autumn Period and has not withdrawn from history, so Man Chong also understands Sun Qian’s thoughts. In fact, everyone understands, plus Sun Min was indeed back, so he didn't delve into it further.
The meaning of Jian Yong's words is also very clear. Even if he is public-minded and wants to completely risk his life for this era, he must either have his own thoughts and realm, or be like himself and be strong without desire. I, Jian Yong, don't have a daughter to consider, so Without a son to consider, there is naturally much less selfishness.
As for selfishness, in fact, there are not many among the twelve elders. Everyone is smart. In the process of making the cake bigger, whoever has selfishness and who is purely for the public will naturally be able to see it when there are more people. Come out, not to mention that there are no fools at this level.
This is also the reason why Sun Qian wants to marry off his daughter as soon as possible. After getting married, Sun Qian will have no weakness. Some things that he had to consider for future generations in the past no longer need to be considered. The same goes for Jia Xu and Li You, with the same wisdom, the same cruelty, and the same determination, Li You can be more unscrupulous than Jia Xu.
Because Li You no longer has to think about whether his descendants will be liquidated, he acts unscrupulously, and at most he will die a good death, and his daughter will not be affected at all.
But in Li You's position, after he fell down one day, would anyone really dare to open the coffin and kill the corpse? It was impossible. As for his posthumous name, future generations will comment on it.
This is also Jian Yong's current attitude. If he had a son or daughter, he would be the object of flattery by county bureaucrats at all levels. Based on the most basic thinking, he would not even need to be so blatant if he let his heirs a little bit.
Let his heirs recruit people to form a new small chamber of commerce, and then hold a tender or something like that, directly opening the door for this chamber of commerce to come in, and then use this chamber of commerce as a bag to start subcontracting to other chambers of commerce.
There is nothing wrong with the process. As for the so-called subcontracting violations, it doesn't matter. Not to mention that there is no such law yet. Even if Manchong notices it, adding this is already an old rule that cannot be traced. According to the current situation The enactment will not trace back any violations of this law before the law was formed.
What's more, even if this law is passed, you can no longer do this in the future. Wouldn't it be better to set a threshold that fully meets the qualification requirements of the chamber of commerce that your son has attracted?
Things like carrot pits have existed since ancient times.
Jian Yong knew very well that if he had an heir, this kind of thing would be absolutely unavoidable. He was not a saint, not to mention that it was within the scope of reason. After all, he only gave information, and how to use this information was a matter for his heir. .
If Jian Yong's descendants are as smart as Sun Qian's daughter, Jian Yong will not even need to take the initiative to say it. He will collect information, obtain it from different channels, and then make plans in advance. It is not possible to take off directly relying on the rapid development of the country and society. question.
"It's better not to mention this matter." Liu Bei waved his hand. He had no intention of pursuing Sun Qian. What to say about Sun Min, the girl? It can't be said that she is a bad learner. This guy can only be said to be crooked. , but overall the brain is actually very good in all aspects.
"I just mentioned a possibility." Jian Yong said with a smile, "So, let's forget it. Now I have no children and no worries. In my current situation, one day I won't be able to do anything anymore. I'm going to die of old age, so you won't throw me away."
"It's okay, you will die in office, and I won't give you a chance to resign." When Liu Bei fell into some kind of self-blame and dissatisfaction, Chen Xi added a sentence so well that Liu Bei couldn't continue at all, and interrupted Jane by the way. The process of Yongchui forcing himself.
There are currently several positions in the Han Dynasty that are clearly destined to be occupied until death. Shi Xie, the governor of Jiaozhou. Needless to say, the governor of Jiaozhou will be replaced only when Shi Xie dies. Liao Li, the prefect of Jiangling, there is no doubt that unless Liao Li dies. No one in Jiangling wants to be a county guard.
The same goes for Sun Qian. It is impossible for him to resign. Sun Qian himself said that if the road is not completed, he will be buried beside the road if he dies. He will never resign.
Now that there is one more Jian Yong, it is not a big deal, just get used to it.
"You guy!" Jian Yong said with gritted teeth. I had just pretended to have a deep tone before, and the atmosphere was so tragic, but you were instantly dismissed.
"I'm telling the truth. I'm not planning to let you resign. If you resign, who should I turn to?" Chen Xi said angrily, "Do your best. The country still needs you to work hard."
"If you don't speak, no one will think you are mute." Jian Yong said angrily.
"I'm just telling you the truth, to prevent you from being immersed in boring fantasies and not wanting to work." Chen Xi chuckled, tragic? We don’t pay attention to tragic things here, but we pay attention to interesting things.
"Both of you, please stop talking." Liu Bei raised his hand and comforted him. Two guys who are equally informal can easily get into arguments when they are together, although this kind of argument is a sign of a good relationship.
"But I still want to say that I am not as good as Bonin in this aspect. Bonin can really do whatever he needs to do regardless of whether he has any heirs or not. He really has no selfish motives and is not trying to gain fame. ." Jian Yong said with emotion.
Man Chong has always had a coffin face, which doesn't make people feel very good, but Man Chong is really dedicated to serving the public good. Man Wei's ability is truly recognized by most of the twelve elders. I think Man Wei is indeed a talent.
But such a talent did not fare well in the hands of Man Chong. People such as Guo Jia and others have discussed that if Man Wei were born in other families, he would be a rich man in business and a county man in politics. Ling, the county magistrate, did very badly in the hands of Man Chong.
This is also the reason why Sun Qian was willing to marry his daughter to Man Wei when he learned that Sun Min liked Man Wei. This was not a good match.
Man Wei is a character, but under Man Chong, sooner or later he will be forced to go astray due to tight money. A smart person who goes astray will destroy himself quickly, but the destructive power is also great. Therefore, Sun Qian learned that When my daughter is willing, she is also willing to give Man Wei a hand.
This is the clearest understanding of Man Chong among the Twelve Elders. Although this approach is wrong, they also clearly understand that Man Chong is a very rigid person. Right is right and wrong is wrong. , the law is not sacred, but he will uphold this fairness almost rigidly, which is very powerful.
Chen Xi could honestly say that he would never be able to do this.
From a certain perspective, Chen Xi is closer to Sun Qian, but what makes Chen Xi better than Sun Qian is that Chen Xi will keep a closer eye on him and control him more strictly. He will do his best when the opponent is about to make a wrong first step. Pull the other person back.
But when it comes to Man Chong's almost rigid maintenance of fairness, Chen Xi will admire and respect such a person, but he will not actively move closer to that level.
Even Chen Xi knows that from the perspective of social development, that is correct and fair, but if he can't do it, he can't do it.
