"If you don't tell me, I will check it out. You know, with my status, it is easy to check something."
Chen Changsheng looked at King Wei and said, "Is this really so?"
Faced with Chen Changsheng's sudden rhetorical question.
Prince Wei suddenly felt a little unconfident.
He thought that maybe this would really be like what Chen Changsheng said, that he would never know anything he shouldn't know.
But in his heart, he was particularly curious about such things and felt a little itchy.
Prince Wei sighed softly and said, "I am a mortal after all..."
He seemed to have accepted a certain reality.
He raised his head, looked at Chen Changsheng, and asked, "So, like King Yu, you are also a monk, and you also have magical means?"
Chen Changsheng looked at him with a smile and said, "What do you think?"
Prince Wei sighed and said, "It's so unreasonable. A shameless person like you can actually become an immortal, but a person like me can only be a prince. It's really unreasonable."
Chen Changsheng was stunned when he heard this, and smiled helplessly: "You are more shameless than Chen, how can you have the nerve to say such things."
Prince Wei hummed twice and said, "I'm much better than you."
"You're just tough-talking."
"Yeah, yeah, I'm a tough talker, I'm a tough talker."
As he spoke, Prince Wei lowered his head and ate the noodles.
Chen Changsheng glanced at him, and then said: "Chen suddenly remembered something."
"What's up?"
"Why is the temple fair in Qingshan City not held anymore?"
Prince Wei was stunned for a moment when he heard this and asked, "Are you still paying attention to these things?"
"Yes, Chen enjoyed going to temple fairs many years ago. The excitement was suddenly gone, and I couldn't help but feel a little nostalgic."
Prince Wei thought for a moment and said, "This temple fair thing..."
He paused, looked at Chen Changsheng and said: "It's not that I can't do it, it's just that I can't help it. You know the situation in the world today. In the early years, the temple fairs in Qingshan City were a mixed bag, and everyone was represented. Nowadays, the territory of Wei is under control. Some Jianghu people and people of unknown origin are not allowed to enter the city. Once there are fewer people, the temple fair will not be held, and it is also very labor-intensive. It is really meaningless, so we simply won’t hold it.”
Prince Wei sighed and said: "Who doesn't want to be more lively? Let's wait until the world is more peaceful."
He himself was actually quite helpless.
In the final analysis, the prince himself has no strength.
If there are sufficient troops and wealth, why should we worry so much about these hidden dangers?
Chen Changsheng looked at King Wei and said, "Have you ever thought that temple fairs are not just for fun?"
"Huh?" Prince Wei glanced at him.
Chen Changsheng said: "Qingshan City is not bad, because you are here, and most of the people in Qingshan City are locals, and they have a sense of belonging to this place. But as far as Chen knows, now in Wei, people from other states are Almost half of them, these people, have no sense of belonging to this place."
"Chen, let me ask you." Chen Changsheng paused and asked, "When a war breaks out, what is the fundamental purpose of the people working for you?"
Prince Wei thought for a moment and said, "In order to survive."
"It's too one-sided."
Chen Changsheng shook his head and said: "Even if Wei is annexed, they can still survive. It's just a new prince. It's just that life will be a little harder, but this doesn't mean they can't survive." .”
"What did you say it was?"
“Part of it should come from the sense of belonging to the land.”
Chen Changsheng said: "It's like an old man is reluctant to part with the land under his feet. They have long believed that this is their home. In addition to survival, there are more important things to support them. By helping you, they are also helping themselves. "
"The fundamental reason for your failure in recruiting troops is not that the people who fled to Wei are afraid of death, but that they have no sense of belonging here. Although you, the King of Wei, treat these people well, they only regard this place as a It’s a temporary place of residence, and when the war is over, they still want to return to the place where they have lived for the rest of their lives.”
Prince Wei pondered for a moment. He had no intention of eating noodles anymore and kept tapping his fingers on the table.
After a moment, he raised his head and frowned: "This is too difficult..."
It is really difficult to change this concept.
Chen Changsheng said: "This is natural, and this is something that is impossible to achieve completely. It is already a great thing that four or five people out of ten people can regard Wei as their home."
"What Chen means is that although this matter is difficult, you can't do nothing, and you have already laid the foundation. You have something that none of these princes have, and that is the support of the people."
"I just talked about temple fairs, and the fundamental meaning of temple fairs is not to be lively. In ancient times, temple fairs were for sacrifices and gathering people, but they were also a bridge for communication between people. Only by bringing people together can the relationship between them Only then will the relationship slowly be condensed and exchanges made, giving people a sense of belonging.”
Chen Changsheng looked at Prince Wei and said, "Do you know what the temple fairs in Qingshan City were like in the early years?"
Prince Wei paused and said, "I haven't seen it before."
“The mountain roads in Yuanchuan are rugged and people are scattered, but when they learn about the temple fair, they will set off early that day and walk dozens of miles of mountain roads to watch the excitement. The children will look forward to it from early to late. The next day we go over the mountains and ridges and get into the city before dark.”
"After they go back, they will tell people in the village who have never been there how lively and fun the temple fair is. People in the village are full of envy, and more people will come to the temple fair the next year."
"This feeling is indescribable and indescribable."
"Meetings and acquaintances between people will occur frequently at this temple fair. People come from all over the world to communicate with each other and become friends. People believe in fate, and this fate will last for a long time. At the temple fair the next year, they will We will also meet, chat, and drink..."
Chen Changsheng smiled and said: "When Chen was visiting the temple fair many years ago, he would feel in a daze that he was from here, and he should be from here."
When King Wei heard Chen Changsheng's words, he seemed to have found some key points.
"Yes……"
Prince Wei's eyes were a little dazed.
The noodles on the table were already cold, but he no longer cared about the noodles at the moment.
Chen Changsheng's words pointed out the problem.
Why did Prince Wei not think of this, and why did his advisers not think of this? The fundamental reason is that they are not the most fundamental people.
They are leaves, not roots at the base of the tree.
