After watching Ying Qian leave, Liu Bei poured himself another glass of rice wine and drank it slowly.
Even if this happened in the Ministry of General Affairs, he wouldn't find it strange.
There are very few people who can withstand the temptation of official positions, and very few people who can take a long-term view. Meat-eaters are just a bunch of insects, and it is difficult for poor people to have that long-term vision.
Those who have a long-term vision are all talented, and they must be very confident in themselves. They must be able to fully believe that they are only temporarily unlucky and will prosper in the future. Only then can they refuse the temptation in front of them.
Most people in this world cannot resist the temptation before them.
From this perspective, everyone is an insect, and no one is more shrewd and wise than anyone else.
Liu Bei also knew very well that those people outside who were indignant at Yingqian actually resented in their hearts why Yang chose not them, and criticized Yingqian from the moral high ground to vent their dissatisfaction and jealousy.
If Yang chooses them, they will most likely do the same thing as Ying Qian. They don't even understand as well as Ying Qian. They know that if they do something wrong, they will stand up and be beaten.
This is human nature and there is nothing to criticize.
Liu Bei didn't know Yang's selection criteria or what Yang's specific promises were, but Yang's move really hit the ancient literature school hard.
Facts have proved that as long as the modern literature school is willing to devote resources, the ancient literature school cannot compete with it on the issue of resources.
If every family of the Modern Literature School dedicated a certain amount of resources to win over the elite students of the Ancient Literature School, the Ancient Literature School would instantly fall into decline, while the Modern Literature School could immediately reverse the decline and suppress the Ancient Literature School again.
Fortunately, such a situation is unlikely to occur. It is absolutely impossible for Jinwen School to devote so many resources to reverse the decline.
Therefore, for the Ancient Literature School, this is just a heavy blow that cannot damage the foundation. For the Ministry of General Affairs, this is an opportunity, an opportunity to test the crisis public relations capabilities of the Ministry of General Affairs.
It was also the first opportunity for Liu Bei to use the Ministry of General Affairs to carry out collective actions to prove his collectivism.
If done well, the people of the Ministry of General Affairs can be further united, instead of facing the collective crisis of the Ministry of General Affairs like now.
When the Jinwen school caused trouble, he had to fight back.
So Liu Bei immediately convened a plenary meeting of the Ministry of General Affairs after Ying moved and announced the first collective action plan of the Ministry of General Affairs.
Engage in crisis public relations.
Members of the Ministry of General Affairs needed to mobilize their personal connections among the young intellectuals in Luoyang to spread their opinions. The core content of the speech was - without the rise of the ancient literature school, there would be no benefits for the modern literature school.
Liu Bei asked the Ministry of General Affairs to stick closely to this core theme and to make it clear to as many young scholars who were interested in this as possible. The reason why Yang would tempt everyone with real money was because of the existence of the ancient literary school and the ancient literary school. The existence of the school made Yang feel like he had something stuck in his throat and he had to take action.
It was the vigorous attack of the ancient literature school that made the modern literature school feel the crisis. In the face of the crisis, the modern literature school was forced to give in, otherwise they would be doomed.
The sun rises not because the rooster crows, but many roosters think that their crows are calling the sun. This is unrealistic.
As long as such a reversal of public opinion is achieved, it will be able to withstand the actual attacks of the Jinwen School to a considerable extent and minimize the losses caused by Yang's sneak attack.
Liu Bei looked at Jian Yong, Han Hao, Ruan Yu, Zhen Yan, Yin Da and other five people, as well as all the members of the General Affairs Department who had gathered, and activated his special skill - Big Brother's Speech.
"Could it be that Yang's sudden recruitment and sudden profit transfer are due to Yang's sudden kindness? No, if you think about it for a moment, you will know that those modern-day thieves will never be so kind!"
"If they were so kind, what did they do in the past hundred years?"
"Why did you do nothing for a hundred years before, and why do you start now? What is different now? What is the difference from a hundred years ago?"
"There is a difference, a big difference! Because a hundred years ago, Zuo's Spring and Autumn Period was deposed as an academic official! But now, Zuo's Spring and Autumn Period has been restored, and the Ancient Literature School has risen again!"
"Those thieves feel threatened and feel real danger! Therefore, they must do something to restore the decline of Jinwen School!"
"Despite this, among the thirteen families of Jinwen School, how many high-ranking officials were involved? In the end, only one Yang stood up and won over dozens of people. With the thirteen families of family law, how many official positions were involved, and in the end, only dozens People? Who are they looking down on with their pretentiousness?"
"Where are the other families? Where are the other high-ranking families? Aren't you going to stand up? Don't you want to do something? Can't you see that the Jinwen School is in danger?"
"No! They have seen it, they have seen everything, but they are just unwilling! They are unwilling to let go of the power and interests they already have in their hands! They would rather die here than give up the benefits! They would rather lie in the coffin with their interests in hand Here, I will never let go!"
"From this point of view, Yang is still the only person among a group of insects who can be called Tao. At least, Yang is willing to give out a small amount of benefits, like throwing a meat bone to a group of hungry people. Just like wild dogs, and then watching the wild dogs fight for this meat bone, I was so proud!"
"It's not that I insult you, but in the eyes of senior sects like the Yang family, all of us, including me, are wild dogs! Not those of senior sects, in their eyes, we are all wild dogs !”
"Can a little promise of official position, just a drop in the bucket, make us degenerate from disciples of saints to wild dogs?"
"Who wants to be a dog? You? Or you? Or you? Or all of us?"
"No! We are not dogs! We are humans! We are scholars! Scholars who learn from the teachings of the sages and stand tall in the world!"
"Mr. Yang wants us to willingly degenerate into wild dogs! He has a great idea! We must act like a scholar and drive down those dog thieves! We must obtain official positions in a dignified manner! We must stand! Stand beside those dogs. In front of thieves, force them to hand over their official positions! Only such an official can do it!"
"Meat eaters are despicable and fail to think far ahead! When we find that meat eaters suddenly start to think far ahead, we must understand that it is not that those thieves have become good, but that someone is forcing them to do so!"
"Who forced these thieves to do such embarrassing things?"
Liu Bei pointed at himself, and then at the hundreds of young scholars from the Ministry of General Affairs in front of him.
Looking at their excited faces, he blushed, veins bulged, and almost roared in anger.
"It's us! It's us who are not treated as human beings by them! It's us who are teased as dolphins and dogs by them! It's us who are united and unshakable! It's us who made those thieves so embarrassed! It's us who made them so miserable! So shameful!
We have already won! Debate of Taixue! This is our moment of glory and glory! On that day, the Jinwen dog thief was defeated, and the old thief Yang Ci was frightened! But now, a greater victory is in front of us. At this critical moment, can we give up our career! Are you begging for mercy like a dog in front of those thieves? "
Liu Bei raised his arms and shouted, and his roar ignited the emotions of the members of the General Affairs Department.
"cannot!"
"cannot!"
"cannot!"
The roars of hundreds of people turned out to be earth-shattering. Everyone's emotions exploded into a powerful momentum, and a raging fire suddenly arose in their hearts.
The subtle emotions that had gradually arisen in the hearts of the members due to the transfer were instantly burned away by this raging fire.
Fire, courage, and blood merged into one at this moment, melting all the resentment and jealousy into a powerful force deep in his heart to work hard.
Not to mention the ordinary members, even Jian Yong and Han Hao were not immune to this. They blushed and took the lead in roaring at the top of their lungs, being infected by this extremely hot emotion.
Ruan Yu, Liu Bei's biggest fan, even burst into tears and spit while roaring. His emotions completely collapsed, his face was completely distorted, and he couldn't control it at all.
They were angry.
They were outraged.
Their hearts were filled with fanatical emotions, and the anger formed by this emotion was enough to burn the little minds of Yang Ci and Yang Biao to ashes.
