However, after thinking carefully in my mind, the young master suddenly issued a rule on Zeng Yi's strange judgment standard is actually not simple at all. People's hearts are upward and human nature is downward. These eight words make sense.

Everyone wants to live a good life, but they just can't stand others living better than themselves. When they have no power, they want to kill all corrupt officials in the world. But one day they think they have power in their hands, but they only regret that they are less greedy than their predecessors. The great rule of the world is definitely what people want, but the prosperity and change of all generations have all arisen from chaos in the world.

Thinking of this, it seems that from childhood to adulthood, from individual to group, it seems that every activity of a person is difficult to escape the iron rule of these eight words.

The eldest son looked at Zeng Yi with a strange look. From beginning to end, Zeng Yi did not argue for himself. After all, he was still talking about the principle of curing diseases. The characteristics of stomach qi are downward. If you violate this point, even if your medical skills are as good as a god, even if you use magical medicine, you will never be able to cure the disease in the end.

But in fact, Zeng Yi has made the best excuse for himself. Those who accuse me, Zeng Yi, of sensationalism and saying that my position is biased is also due to "human hearts and human nature is downward"? It is really common for bad money to drive out good money in the officialdom.

The eldest son found it very interesting. He remembered a very classic debate topic: Human nature is evil, or human nature is good. This topic has been debated for thousands of years, and no one can tell whether it is good or evil. However, Zeng Yi’s answer today allowed himself to know what the best answer is.

Whether human nature is good or human nature is evil, this is not important, because no matter whether it is good or evil, it cannot escape the essential laws of human nature downward. People formulate laws and promote morality, with the purpose of domesticating and changing this downward characteristics of human nature.

If Zeng Yi’s principle is used to examine and judge, we can see through the good or bad policies and regulations around us at a glance.

After Zeng Yi finished speaking, he felt a little regretful. Speaking these things in front of the old man, the master of governing the country, is simply showing off his skills. However, since he has already said it, regret is useless. Zeng Yi was calm in his heart, no matter whether the result is good or bad, he just took it all his strength.

Furthermore, being able to say these opportunities in front of the elderly does not mean that there is anything. If you miss it, you may regret it.

What Zeng Yi said today is not a whim. Since he entered the officialdom, he has encountered all kinds of problems and difficulties. Every time he will think more deeply about the reasons behind the problems than others.

Why did Fengqing County carry out reforms in pharmaceutical bidding? It is because the previous principle of "only seeking low prices" in drug bidding seemed beautiful and catered to people's hearts, but in fact it greatly challenged human nature to pursue low prices without seeking quality. This is to encourage counterfeit drugs and make inferior drugs in disguise, so the final result of "being inferior to being better than others" is what is expected.

In reality, private enterprises are more competitive than state-owned enterprises. Some people may say that this is determined by the market, but after all, market needs are actually the needs of the people's hearts. Private enterprises are more competitive because they are better at catering to and regulating people's hearts.

The scale of large enterprises is no less than that of small local governments. Why are enterprises far more efficient than governments and do not have all kinds of "government diseases"? That is because when making rules, business owners start from the worst perspective of human nature. They think of all possible situations in advance to block all loopholes that may be exploited by human nature. Therefore, enterprises with the most stringent systems operate the best and rarely have problems.

Do the best with the worst heart.

This is a major principle for Zeng Yi to act. Whether it is the General Tea in Nanyun County, the pension fund in Xiaowushan, or the series of reforms made in Fengqing County, Zeng Yi followed this principle, so he ensured that these undertakings have lasting development power.

If Zeng Yi handed over General Tea to Ruziniu and gave the pensions of landless farmers in Xiaowushan to the Management Committee for operation, then it may be unknown whether these two industries can still exist today.

Faced with huge temptations and without effective supervision, the downward characteristics of human nature will be emitted.

Zeng Yi also participated in the training of the Party School and had excellent grades. He could just like others and also talked a lot of clichés like "struggle to be a reform experimental field, correct mistakes" and "cross the river by feeling the stones". But he did not do this, but instead, from the perspective of a doctor, starting from the perspective of curing diseases and saving lives, he told the reasons why he wanted to do these reforms.

The old man also said: Poverty is not socialism! What is what people want, this is what people want. Zeng Yi believes that the old man can understand his innocent heart.

The eldest son looked at the old man's expression and found that the old man not only had no intention of being disgusted, but the corners of his mouth on his left were getting higher and higher. The eldest son couldn't help but think that Zeng Yi had good luck. If this kid had not had the doctor's shield, if he really came up, he would have told him the old man the principle of "people's hearts are upward and human nature is downward" that he would have been bombarded long ago.

"Even if there are ten thousand reasons, it would not work if we cannot unite comrades." The eldest son said again. He could not speak any more of those opposition opinions. If he continued to talk, he would become a representative of "human nature toward the downwardness". However, the old man did not say anything, so the eldest son had to continue to "test" Zeng Yi.

Zeng Yi immediately said: "Comrades, like-minded people are comrades."

The eldest young man was silent. Although his face was tense, he felt quite happy. Unexpectedly, Zeng Yi was still a hedgehog. After singing a little bit of a black face, the boy immediately used his eloquence to fight back. If it were someone else, he would have been in a mess at this time. Instead of the fight, the boy became more and more courageous and did not suffer any loss at all!

The eldest son fucked his hands behind his back and said, "What an iron-toothed bronze-toothed one! It seems that the only one who can do the right thing is County Mayor Zeng. I hope you are not the bamboo shoot in the mountains!"

What are bamboo shoots in the mountains? It is about the reeds on the wall, with heavy heads and light feet and shallow roots; bamboo shoots in the mountains have sharp mouths and hollow skins in the belly!

Zeng Yi didn't understand why the eldest son suddenly made things difficult for him everywhere. After hearing this sarcastic sentence, he wanted to fight back again, but after thinking about it, he swallowed the words to his mouth again. If he continued to say this, he became a naked quarrel. No matter how exciting the words he said before, it would change the taste because of the argument.

The eldest son was waiting for Zeng Yi to continue to fight back, but the boy shrank his neck neatly again. The eldest son couldn't help but praise him again. It seems that this boy is really good at Taoism, and he was not fooled by himself. Do you think this boy is scheming and he just gave you a young ignorance; do you think he will be angry, but he just turned away from Feng Qingyun again.

The whole person who can't pinch it or touch it, but it's just slippery!

"Then let him always be correct comrade!" The old man leaning on the bed suddenly spoke, and ended the "stalemate" between the two in one sentence.

Zeng Yi turned his body and saw the old man leaning there. He not only had no disgust and impatience in his eyes, but also had some encouragement and jokes. Looking at the eldest son's unwillingness and freedom, Zeng Yi understood a little what was going on. Who would have thought that the old man who is well-known at home and abroad and has a lofty status in the party would join forces with the eldest son to sing a black-and-white scene today?

"It's just my personal experience in treating diseases. I'm talking nonsense, and you're laughing at me!" Zeng Yi said quickly. The old man's words made him a little nervous. Who dares to say that he is always right?

The old man just kept his hands tight and said, "About the previous question, please continue to tell your reasons!"

Things are brought back to the beginning, or is the question that the thing I did is the most correct? Zeng Yi was able to use the principle of "people's hearts are upward and human nature is upward" and theories of curing diseases to fool them. Now, when you return to the original question, you can only answer honestly.

This is why Old Qi is powerful and has the right to do this, because the old man has never made any statement regarding Zeng Yi's previous answer.

Zeng Yi was really a little bit over the top at this moment. He was afraid he would not be able to answer honestly. After thinking for a moment, Zeng Yi said: "There are the prescriptions of traditional Chinese medicine, including the monarch and ministers. Among them, the monarch has the least amount of taste, but it has the effect of falling through the wall and falling down with half the effort and establishing the heavy healing. Although the monarch has a lot of taste, it is very rare to use for diseases."

The old man did not interrupt Zeng Yi's statement, but the smile on his face seemed to be slightly different, as if he didn't start with medical skills, so the kid would not speak.

"From the current system, the influence of officials must be very large, and their words and deeds can influence and change all aspects of society. It can be said that if officials make a small step forward, society can make a big step forward; if officials take a small step back, society will make a big step back. Although a step is small, as long as they move forward, its significance is very important." Zeng Yi said in a deep voice.

In reality, many officials like to show, and Zeng Yi is not very disgusted with it. He feels that even if it is a show, as long as it is towards people's livelihood, it must support it. As more people support it, a public opinion and trend has been formed. Maybe the show will eventually become a fake show.

But if everyone poured cold water and watched coldly, Shi Runyikui, perhaps officials were too lazy to even have the idea of ​​making a show, that would be a real tragedy, because you personally blocked the opportunity for social growth.

The eldest son waited for a while, and saw that Zeng Yi did not say anything again, and then he was sure that Zeng Yi had finished speaking. He couldn't help but swear. This kid is really cherishing his words. The main content of the topic he was talking about was probably that there were many medical introductions that had not yet begun.

However, it has to be admitted that the reasons this kid is completely consistent with his medical principles. The conclusion is three words: "To cure officials". Only in this way can you find the right medicine and achieve twice the result with half the effort and achieve immediate results.

After hearing this, the old man still did not make any statement. After a long time, he said, "My illness is cured!"

This made Zeng Yi a little confused, but he did not ask for a new pulse for the elderly. In the past few days, he had a diagnosis every morning and evening. In fact, he had already confirmed that the elderly's condition was cured. The remaining problems were not solved by medicine, and it required careful care and rest.

Seeing that the old man had issued a order to see off the guest, Zeng Yi had to say goodbye and leave the room and go downstairs.

The only one left in the room was the old man and the eldest son. At this time, the old man lifted the blanket covered by himself and walked down the floor. Seeing the cigarette box on the cabinet in front of the bed, the old man couldn't help but pick it up again, and just pulled out one and was about to light it, but he seemed to remember something, so he had to stuff it back in again.

When the eldest son saw the old man's actions, he spoke: "The ancients said that the best medicine and the country are the most reasonable. Zeng Yi is a typical example."

The old man looked back at the eldest son and asked, "What do you think, Kefeng?"

The eldest son said, "I knew that the word was written by Zeng Yi before, and I think it was nothing more than a young man who specially selected nice words to write it. However, after listening to this question and answer today, I think that he could write that word, which was somewhat reasonable, as if he could vaguely see the meaning of Zhang Juzheng."

However, the old man shook his head slightly, then sat on a sofa beside the window and said, "It's not Zhang Juzheng."

The eldest son was a little puzzled and wondered why his father said this. He felt that some of Zeng Yi's characteristics were completely in line with Zhang Juzheng.

"I think it smells like a pipe!" After saying this, the old man picked up the match in his hand and scratched it, as if he wanted to have a good time. The flames reflected the old man's face.

The eldest son immediately said, "If the granaries are full, you will know etiquette; if you have enough food and clothing, you will know honor and disgrace."

This sentence comes from Guan Zhong, the "first prime minister of the Spring and Autumn Period" who assisted Duke Huan of Qi to become a generation of overlords. Guan Zhong also said that "orders are like the source of flowing water to follow the hearts of the people." This is consistent with Zeng Yi's saying "People's hearts are upward and human nature is downward" in theory, but it is not so straightforward.

The eldest son did not expect his father to give Zeng Yi such a high evaluation. Guan Zhong was an ancient politician he admired very much. From Guan Zhong's words, we can know that Guan Zhong actually attached great importance to etiquette, honor and disgrace, but what he did first was how to make the people "full granaries" and "full food and clothing", so Guan Zhong finally became the first prime minister in the Spring and Autumn Period and achieved the hegemony of Duke Huan of Qi.

This is a real doer!

In contrast to Guan Zhong, another great master Confucius in the Spring and Autumn Period. Although Confucius' idea of ​​"benevolence, righteousness and etiquette" has been respected by later generations for thousands of years, it has to be said that Confucius, who had been looking for opportunities to become an official all his life, was always respected by all countries when he traveled around the country.

The next day, when Zeng Yi was following a visit, he said goodbye to the old man. The old man said that he had recovered from the illness and his pulse had returned to normal. There was really no need to stay here again.

The old man did not try to keep him, but said, "I have to read the book I gave you!"

The eldest son glanced at Zeng Yi with a squint, but his expression on his face had not changed much, but he had an idea in his heart. This was his hope for Zeng Yi. "I keep the old man's advice in mind!" Zeng Yi said.

The old man didn't say anything else, but picked up a foreign book at hand and read it. He was proficient in five languages.

When he returned to Fang Run, he packed up his things and Zeng Yi was about to leave. In fact, there was nothing. He looked like when he came or when he left. He only had an extra copy of "The Legend of Zhang Juzheng" given to him by the old man.

The guard at the door had received the order, and a car with black curtains was also parked steadily in front of the rockery, waiting for Zeng Yi to get on the bus and leave.

When he walked to the car, Zeng Yi was about to lift his legs into the car when a voice came from behind him: "Please stay!"

The one who gave birth to the people was the eldest son himself. He just walked out of the house and looked here with a smile.

Zeng Yi had no choice but to turn back and greet him, "Young Master, do you have any instructions?"

The eldest young master waved his hand, smiled, and said, "Don't call me a mixed number in the world in the future." After pausing, the eldest young master said, "I think it's like Zhai Haohui. You call me Uncle Feng, isn't this a good chance to take advantage of you, right?"

Zeng Yi didn't expect the eldest son to be so obedient. Zeng Yi would definitely not suffer any loss by calling him like this, because the eldest son and Zhai Wanlin are indeed people of the same generation, so he said, "How could it be, no!"

The Grand Duke Yu said, "I'll give you a gift!"

Zeng Yi hurriedly said, "How can this be done? No, no!"

"What's wrong!" The eldest son laughed and said, "You are the old man's personal words, "All right comrades, right?"

Zeng Yi said, "That's just a joke from him. Uncle Feng, don't break me!"

Fortunately, the eldest son didn't insist, so he gave up after being polite and said, "Well, the old man still can't live without people, so I won't give it to you." As he said that, the eldest son reached out and took out a business card that was extremely exquisite, "You can take my business card. Next time I look for you, I don't have to pass through that brat Zhai Haohui."

Zeng Yi took the business card straight away. Maybe the person with this business card could count it with ten fingers. After putting it away, Zeng Yi handed over his business card.

The eldest son was not polite, so he took Zeng Yi's business card and took a step back and stood back on the steps in front of the house.

Zeng Yi knew that it was really time to leave this time and said goodbye. He went over and got into the car. Before the car could start, he was familiar with the road and took off his eye mask and leaned on the back of the chair and started thinking about it.

Zeng Yi felt that the purpose of the eldest son’s farewell today was not to say goodbye, but to convey another meaning, especially the sentence “You are the “always correct comrade” that the old man personally conferred. This is a joke and is not worth mentioning again at all.

But the amount of information contained in this sentence is too large, either too good or too bad.

After thinking about it, Zeng Yi's head hurts a little. Maybe he was thinking too much, but no matter what, the eldest son can give him the business card at least not too bad.

The route back was similar to when Zeng Yi went there. He changed planes twice in a row and finally landed at Xiongfeng Airport in the eastern suburbs of Yunhai City. However, the airport that was transferred in the middle seemed to be different from when he came.

When leaving the airport, the guard at the door took back the temporary document from Zeng Yi, which meant that Zeng Yi could not return to the airport. Fortunately, the car borrowed from Gu Di was still in Zeng Yi and drove to Yunhai City.

After thinking about it on the road, Zeng Yi did not contact anyone anymore, but entered the ring road and drove back to Fengqing County.

When Zeng Yi appeared in the Fengqing County Government Courtyard, Bao Qifan hurriedly ran out of the building and said, "Mr. Zeng, have you returned from Beijing?"

"Yeah!" Zeng Yi nodded randomly and took the fan's mouth to Beijing. Maybe someone gave him an explanation to the county. The eldest son could not have a county magistrate disappeared for many days for no reason. That was what attracted the attention of others.

Bao Qifan followed Zeng Yi and said, "It's good to come back, my hanging heart can finally be let go.

Zeng Yi understood Bao Qifan's meaning. Even if someone explained it to him, a county magistrate suddenly disappeared without saying hello, and there was no news in the middle and could not be contacted. It was impossible for the county to have a few rumors. This is normal. As long as he comes back, the rumors will slowly subside.

Back at the office, Zeng Yi sat down while drinking water and asked, "What's going on recently?"

"The biggest situation is that the planning plan of the Rail Department was finally released the day before yesterday. The new railway must pass through our Fengqing County, and a safety point must be built in the county. Because you are not at home and you are in charge of the overall situation, the county has no idea where to start." Bao Qifan quickly picked important matters and reported it, saying: "Yesterday, the city held a railway work mobilization meeting. Boss, you did not attend. Mayor He was very unhappy and got angry."

Zeng Yi nodded. He was not worried about this. He Sixian is a person who knows the inside story. He just needs to go back and explain to He Sixian. He Sixian cannot be really angry with himself. He is just using the harshness of himself to increase the attention of others to railway construction work.

Bao Qifan talked about several things in succession, all of which involved financial approval. Without the signature of Zeng Yi, the county's financial work has been in a state of stagnation in the past few days.

After talking about this, Bao Qifan seemed to remember something. He quickly walked to the file cabinet next to him, pulled out a kraft paper bag from the bottom, and said, "There is also a document sent from Baiyang City, Nanjiang Province. It was sent by a special person, saying that it was to be handed over to the boss for your review."

Zeng Yi took the document and saw that there was a seal on the file bag. The amount of money he bought was quite heavy. Looking at the stamp on the seal, it belonged to Xiao Wushan Management Committee. Zeng Yi guessed what was inside. Mostly Li Wei drove out the report on the elderly care industry.
Chapter completed!
