Yang Qian and others all came from Yuntong City, which was equivalent to the provincial capital city in the previous life. How could a person from a remote county see such a luxurious carriage.
"Who is coming~~~!" The garrison troops who had been trained by the border army were not the lazy people they used to be.
When he saw the carriage, the captain felt that he was crazy. Ordinary Guizhou people knew a hammer, but he knew that this was no longer trespassing, and it was not an exaggeration to call it a rebellion.
"Get off and get off~~~You are so brave, do you know what is the crime of overstepping your bounds? Hurry~~~!"
A token hit him directly in the face.
The captain was furious, "Where do you think this is? This is under the jurisdiction of Yuntong County~~~!"
He cursed, it was the first time someone was so unruly, but when he saw the words on the token clearly, his expression suddenly changed.
"Humble position, see General Ran~~~!"
"Well, open all the city gates, otherwise the carriage won't be able to get in."
"It's inside~~~!"
"You're here, but you're still not letting me go."
He bowed his hands deeply to the carriage and said, "Subordinate, please see Mr. Wu An~~~!"
A small hand stretched out from the carriage, holding an identity document on it. The captain tilted his head, and he was immediately relieved.
"Open the city gate~~~!"
After the city gate was opened, the garrison made no move, and the fishermen and the people of Guizhou Province instantly made way.
"What, is Mr. Wu An sitting inside?"
"Hahaha, Mr. Wu An actually came to a remote place like ours."
"I heard that it was because of him that the pearl tax and tenant rent were reduced."
"The forest and water tax is also much lower, but ordinary firewood cutting requires application and approval, which is a shame."
"I think Mr. Wu An's idea is quite good. If you cut down one tree, plant another one, so that our descendants will have trees to cut down."
As everyone was talking, Yang Qian couldn't help but feel satisfied in his heart. At least from what he saw, Li Si was copying Yuntong County's governance policy.
The streets are very clean, and the people setting up stalls are gathered together. Some old houses have begun to be demolished one after another, obviously imitating the demolition policy of Yuntong City.
"This Li Si did a good job~~~!" Zhang Yumeng also looked at the street.
Yang Gan's eyes flashed with satisfaction, "There should be no problem with the person I personally selected. It's just that Li Si comes from a poor family, and I don't know if he will follow the old path of a wealthy family."
Xiao Yu was moved in his heart and said with a smile, "Do you have the idea of re-establishing the governor of the four counties?"
Yang Qian sneered and said, "Either re-establish it, or go back to the old ways and govern the county according to the previous ideas, then dissociate yourself from me."
"I allow people with different ideas from me to exist in my territory, but I will not allow people to have different ideas from me to appear in my territory."
When Yang Qian said this, Xiao Yu immediately felt a chill in his heart and asked tentatively.
"Li Si can't do it?"
"It is difficult to change a person's ideas. Don't forget that he is from Legalism."
Xiao Yu nodded, "I know that Young Master is against Legalism, but Li Si is indeed a rare talent."
Before she could finish speaking, Yang Gan interrupted, "I have no intention of resisting Legalism."
The Legalist culture in my previous life was a shining point in Chinese culture, like a star in the vast night sky, shining brightly in the night sky.
Legalist culture is the core idea of political culture, while the Confucian culture we are familiar with is the gentle side of political culture.
Governing a big country is like cooking small dishes, requiring a combination of strength and softness.
Thinking of this, Yang Qian couldn't help but clenched his fists.
Legalism is just too hard, like a hard bone, which requires Confucianism to moderate it, and Confucianism despises strange and sophisticated techniques, so it is just right for Mohism to moderate it.
"I still have to think carefully about Li Si."
Xiao Yu thought for a while, took out the information and checked it, and said curiously, "Your Majesty, I think Li Si's master is a Confucian scholar.
, why he is a Legalist is very puzzling to me. "
Yang Gan smiled and said, "Li Si has always wanted to find a place to show what he has learned in his life."
"But if you want to use your skills, you can only become an official. Because he is an official, he has to manage the people. This involves a problem. The punishment cannot be as good as that of a doctor, and the courtesy cannot be as good as that of common people."
"That is to say, Li Si cannot use etiquette to manage the people, so he has to remove etiquette from his own ideas. If etiquette and law remove etiquette, there will only be law."
"So, although Li Si inherited his teacher's idea of "human nature is evil", he did not use this idea to defend "ritual", but used this idea to defend "dharma". Therefore, Li Si is an algorithmist. "
In the past, Yang Qian didn't understand this society. As his understanding deepened, he gradually understood some things.
Judging from the current situation, no famous person from hundreds of schools of thought emphasizes which school or sect he belongs to.
Yang Qian is often accustomed to thinking of Confucianism, Legalism, Taoism, Yin-Yang, , Miscellaneous, etc., which seem to have clear and distinct opinions, but in fact they are completely different.
These people from various schools of thought are actually absorbing and learning from each other's ideas.
Some people believe that human nature is evil, while others believe that human nature is good. It seems that the two opinions conflict greatly, but they both maintain etiquette and law, so they are both classified as Confucianism.
For example, some people think that the world should be governed by severe punishments and laws in order to achieve peace.
Others believe that only political power can govern a country, and a king should keep his thoughts to himself and not let his ministers understand what is in his heart.
Sometimes it is necessary to pretend to be deaf and dumb in order to observe whether the people around you are loyal or not. To guard against ministers is like guarding against tigers. When dealing with those who are untrustworthy, one must grasp the pigtails at the right time and settle accounts after the fall.
What's more, some people admire power and majesty, which means to ensure the authority and majesty of the king.
How to guarantee it is to act arbitrarily, have great power, and be above ten thousand people. There are no checks and balances, no power supervision, and no public criticism. In this way, there is majesty and authority.
Severe punishments are the law.
Political power is a trick.
Power and prestige are forces.
What Yang Qian needs is the help of a Legalist scholar who has mastered the magic power, and a Confucian scholar to neutralize his violence.
Blurring the boundaries between various schools of thought, in this way, one should be able to combine hardness and softness.
Yang Qian couldn't help but clenched his fists tightly. Talents were rare, even less so in this era.
Ordinary people in Guizhou are almost all illiterate, and those who are slightly literate work as minor officials in the government.
After arriving at the county seat, such a huge carriage could only stop at the county magistrate's palace.
When Yang Qian just came down, he saw a familiar figure carrying a prisoner-looking man and walking towards the county magistrate's house.
"Baili Shuang?"
Baili Shuang, who was carrying the prisoner, heard this, took a closer look, and immediately raised his hands and said, "See you, Your Majesty."
Yang Gan nodded and said with a smile, "Why did you come to Wanghai County too?"
Baili Shuang smiled and said, "I received news that there is a person here who is very capable and has new martial arts skills. I plan to come and take a look."
Yang Gan's eyes lit up, "New martial arts? Then you don't have to go there in person, right?"
Baili Shuang smiled bitterly and said, "I didn't believe it at first, but then all the calls from Tianshousi came to the mansion, so I came over to take a look."
After he finished speaking, a surprised smile appeared on his face.
"I was not disappointed when I came here this time."
Baili Shuang pushed the prisoner in front of her and said, "This is the man. He has a unique skill that is extremely powerful, so I came here to learn it."
When Baili Shuang said this, Yang Qian immediately became interested.
He asked Xuan Jiajun to protect the girls and let them move freely, while he took Baili Shuang and the prisoner to a tea shop.
Seeing that the people around him were pointing at him, Yang Gan reluctantly asked Baili Shuang to remove the shackles from the prisoner.
Before the two of them could speak, the prisoner sneered and said, "You are so brave, how dare you take my shackles off
Remove it, aren't you afraid that I will run away? "
The two looked at each other without looking at him, Yang Qian said calmly.
"If you can run away under my nose, I can forgive you, but if you can't run and I catch you, I will break your limbs. Do you want to take a gamble?"
There was no emotion in the calm tone, but those conclusive words caused a wave of emotion in the prisoner's heart.
He was silent and didn't speak, his eyes flashing, obviously weighing the pros and cons, and looking at Yang Qian quietly.
Such a man who is more beautiful than women, does he have any trump card?
He could fight dozens of people of this size in Shangguo.
However, at this time in the county, it is still necessary to remain unchanged in response to changes. The garrison here, just by looking at their equipment, knows that they are not easy to mess with.
"Tell me, what martial arts skills are more powerful in him."
After Baili Shuang's treatment, Yang Qian realized that this was a knight-errant who had a conflict with others and seriously injured three people before planning to run away.
But he didn't expect that while he was hiding, he would be reported and arrested.
He was not born with supernatural powers, nor did he have any armor, and his weapons were confiscated when he entered the county town.
Being unarmed and surrounded by dozens of soldiers, it was impossible to escape.
After being arrested, Wanghai County was experiencing a shipbuilding boom again, so this person was delayed.
In the prison, his hands and feet were chained. Out of boredom, he kept kicking the wooden fence with his feet.
Unexpectedly, by chance, I found my own way of practicing martial arts.
A piece of wood that is as thick as an ordinary adult's arm can be broken by just a little kick with his feet.
If it was just like this, Baili Shuang wouldn't be asked to come in person.
An ordinary ranger can do such a thing, but this person's leg skills are actually very hidden.
When fighting Baili Shuang, he almost got hit.
Generally speaking, no matter who kicks someone, their shoulders must move.
An expert can see at a glance which kick this person is using, and can immediately take avoidance measures.
But there is no trace of which foot this kid used to move, and the most incredible thing is that his kick is not very powerful, but the power is destructive.
Looking at Baili Shuang, the corners of Yang Gan's mouth gradually rose.
This guy is good and suits my taste very well.
