Yun Chao didn't expect that the whistleblower was really Huang San.
How mentally twisted does this guy have to be to do such a stupid thing?
It was obvious that he had made a mistake, but not only did he not reflect on it, but he also blamed others. To describe this kind of thing as hopeless is an understatement!
Next, the time to truly test Yunchao arrived.
This matter is very difficult.
If business is business and Huang Sanka is removed, some people may think that Yun Chao's elbows are turned outward and not towards the people in his own village.
For the sake of fellow villagers, sparing Huang San once would not only be unfair to the masons, but would also be detrimental to the future management of his subordinates.
If you can be forgiven for making such a big mistake, what else can't be forgiven?
If someone else makes a mistake in the future, how should they be punished?
On the surface, this matter does not seem complicated at all, but in fact it is very difficult to deal with.
However, that was said to others, and to Yun Chao from later generations, it really was nothing.
Rather than struggling over and over again on your own, and ultimately offending a group of people no matter what you do, it is better to leave the decision-making power to everyone, and at the same time cultivate everyone's sense of ownership.
The spirit of ownership may not be useful in peaceful times, but it is different in troubled times.
How was the Celestial Kingdom established in Yun Chao's previous life?
Wasn't it just defeated by a group of ordinary people who thought they were the masters?
"Ordinarily, Huang San signed a contract with me before, and I can decide his life or death. But since I have driven him away, I can no longer deal with him arbitrarily. Well, I have an idea. Let me tell you. Listen and see if it works..."
Yunchao's approach is very simple, which is to give full play to everyone's subjective initiative.
To put it bluntly, let everyone vote.
Each household in Wolong Village counts as one household, and each household has one ticket.
Two masons are the main victims, and each family counts ten votes.
As a party involved, the Huang family has no voting rights.
In the end, Huang San's treatment was decided based on the number of votes.
However, there are only two options during the voting. One is to let Huang San go, and the other is to let Huang San, the traitor who turned the whistle, pay with his blood and pay for the life of the stonemason's family!
A smart person can spot Yun Chao's tendencies at a glance.
If Huang San was spared and the Huang family compensated several masons, perhaps more people would choose this option.
If Huang San was let off lightly, many people might be reluctant.
Of course, Yun Chao was not willing to let Huang San go. If he kept such a pickpocket in Wolong Village, there might be some trouble in the future.
If it weren't for the fact that the foundation is not yet deep and the villagers of Wolong Village have to be won over, Yun Chao would have "obeyed the law" long ago!
Although voting is a rare thing, it is not difficult to understand and everyone can understand it as soon as they hear it.
As a low-level citizen who has no right to speak, he can actually decide a person's life or death. This feeling is simply wonderful. I have never experienced it before!
Everyone's enthusiasm is very high. Being able to be a judge for once, even if they only have less than 1% of the judicial power, makes everyone happy!
Come on Yun Er, hurry up, we can't wait!
The process was very simple. Yunchao did not engage in secret voting at all.
Each family sends a representative, and each representative is given a mung bean.
Get two earthen basins, one is to let Huang San go, and the other is to pay with blood. Whichever one you want to choose, just throw the mung beans in your hand into it.
As the representative of the Yun family, Yun Chao also held a mung bean in his hand.
However, Yun Chao did not rush to make a choice, but asked the two masons Yang and Jiang to come first.
The two masons not only had no objection to Yun Chao's actions, but were even grateful to him.
The Dawu Dynasty was not one of those so-called legal countries of later generations. Local officials tried cases not so much by law but by public morality.
Excluding the judge's personal preferences, the trial of many cases relies on public morality.
What's more, Yun Chao is not an official yet.
As a native of Wolong Village, it was very normal for Yun Chao to spare Huang San's life for the sake of the face of his fellow villagers, and no one could say anything.
However, Yun Chao still gave them a chance to take revenge, and even gave them ten mung beans to each family. This was such a great kindness, and there was no reason to blame him!
Wow!
Wow!
The two masons did not hesitate and threw all the mung beans in their hands into the basin where Huang San paid with his blood.
Next came the boys under Yun Chao. Yun Chao didn't even discuss it with their families and directly made them their family representatives.
The families of the boys had no objections to this decision.
From the day that my son followed Yun Er, they were no longer the children of the family. They had become the backbone of the family. If they were not still young, their family status could completely surpass their parents!
Regarding Huang San, the informant and traitor, all the boys had almost surprisingly unanimous opinions.
Everyone is following Yun Chao to do big things, killing bandits and seizing their gold and silver. These are all deadly things. If an informer appears at every turn and everyone is a fool, sooner or later they will be retaliated to death!
Therefore, there was no need for anyone to direct them, and all the boys chose to pay with blood!
At this time, Yun Chao's side's opinion couldn't be more obvious, they don't want to see the traitor go unpunished!
The next people to vote were those who wanted their boys to hang out with Yun Chao.
What else is there to think about? Since you want your boy to hang out with Yun Chao, you can't go against Yun Chao.
Even if Yun Chao hasn't thrown out the mung beans yet, everyone knows his attitude.
Haven't you seen that Yun Chao's gang of boys have already made their choice? What are you waiting for?
Even if they don't want their boy to hang out with Yun Chao, many people still think Huang San is unreasonable.
If everyone in Wolong Village became this kind of person, he would probably be unlucky too. What if bandits were recruited?
Blah blah blah...
Hundreds of family representatives threw mung beans into the same earthen basin.
Of course, it is impossible for everyone to choose to pay with blood.
Some want to get closer to Yun Chao, some have good relations with the Huang family, and are even relatives of the Huang family.
These people have no choice. As relatives, they can only choose to let Huang Sanyi go.
However, their approach is understandable to everyone.
After all, they are relatives. How can one expect relatives to die? Killing relatives for righteousness is not a good word in the Dawu Dynasty.
"Shitou, go call Muramasa and ask him to vote."
Yun Chao is a fair, just and open person. How can the Wolong Village vote be without the Lai family?
Don't say that Lai Zhicheng is the village leader, he is just an ordinary villager, and Yun Chao will not exclude him.
However, when Lai Zhicheng heard that Yun Chao asked him to vote, he almost lost his temper and got a big neck disease!
Yun Er, you bastard!
You don't have any good intentions in asking me to vote. What kind of peace of mind do you have, do you think I don't know?
