After the money was distributed, Qi Chuzhe Propaganda Party members who defected to Zhu Youxiao one by one, immediately felt that the money was a bit hot.

"Mr. Shen, do you think you should take this money?" Xu Dahua and others found Chen Yan and were obviously skeptical about the money distributed by the emperor.

"Ha! As a minister, you can't take any salary from the king." Chen Yan smiled, obviously speaking official words. Xu Dahua's face turned bitter and said in a low voice: "Master Shen, please make an idea!"

"If I am a wise man today, how could I not know that my ministers and officials are seeking officials for money for thousands of miles? Your Majesty also knows that there will be no fish when the water is clear. Besides, do you dare not to collect this silver?" Chen Qing asked with a smile.

Xu Dahua and others immediately smiled awkwardly and stopped talking.

This silver is really hot, because if you dare to corruption in the future after collecting this silver, then you will obviously be extremely strong in pursuit.

But do they dare not accept this money?

Nowadays, this group of people can jump up like a rocket because the emperor is behind the scenes. According to the normal script, it should be that after they come to power, they are like the Donglin Party and are also corruption. They just need to do things more beautifully and more positively.

At that time, as long as it is not too much, the emperor can only turn a blind eye. After all, this is a business that is willing to fight and be punished. If the emperor encounters a little bit of corruption and calls for killing, it will be unreasonable. You have to give some benefits, right?

But it is different if you take this money. The emperor is equivalent to giving them some money and treating it as their normal income. It is equivalent to giving them benefits. In addition, they have not investigated their past after reporting their corruption property. They are given a channel to make a fortune. At this time, they will be punished with corruption. They will not seem to be indifferent to the corruption.

The Way of Slowing Naturalness What kind of people are Xu Dahua, I can’t help but admire the emperor’s move. Instead of letting these officials rely on the emperor’s support and their role in the emperor, secretly do not know how much money they have greedy for, it is better to place the money openly and distribute it to them, and then use torture to deter them so that they dare not embezzle them.

This benefit is extremely obvious. In the process of fiscal revenue and fiscal expenditure, the loss cost is effectively controlled. A certain link will not be lost due to corruption.

For example, when the water conservancy project was repaired, it planned to build a reservoir of 10,000 taels, but it was greedy for 5,000 taels. As a result, the reservoir was built into a tofu project. Maybe the reservoir would be washed away in a few years. The court not only spent a lot of money in vain, but also had to invest a lot of money to rebuild.

So change the model, before the reservoir is built, the method of paying salary is given, assuming that the official is given 1,000 taels of silver. Then the official is asked to spend 10,000 taels on the construction of the reservoir. The final cost is 11,000 taels, but the quality of the reservoir is guaranteed.

The former turns a blind eye to officials' corruption. Sometimes you don't know how much they will lose, and the risks cannot be controlled. The latter limits the loss to a certain range. Although the expenditure increases, it is not easy to have problems.

As for how to prevent corruption, it is actually relatively simple. As long as the people in power dare to make up their minds to investigate, dare to break the unspoken rules of the officialdom, and make corrupt officials pay a terrible price, and at the same time, the income of these officials is still acceptable, most of the corruption will disappear. After all, there is no need to take this risk when the salary increases significantly.

Corruption and non-corruption are often just a matter of crime cost. If an annual income can already ensure a good life, you may not take that risk to embezzle. If someone commits crimes against the wind and the corruption methods are so clever that they cannot see them under strict investigation, it must be that the means are extremely hidden and will not bring bad habits. Not being found out is their ability.

What I fear most is openly embezzling, and the superiors don’t care. When other officials who are not corruption see, why can’t I be corrupt? So they followed suit and immediately became corruption.

Therefore, anti-corruption is actually a very simple thing. As long as those who are openly embezzled and then pay a heavy price, the corruption trend can be curbed immediately. As for in-depth anti-corruption, it can also be done, but it does not necessarily need to be perfect. There is no perfect thing in this world.

After all, all things are symbiotic with yin and yang. If a thing is pure yang, it is an immortal. It has already jumped out of the five elements and does not enter the three realms. It is not considered a thing in this world.

In ancient China, it was actually a civilization of practice. Taoist academics had already appeared in the period without writing. At that time, it was mainly used to guide practice. Taoist monks made themselves last longer by making their energy pure yang. Later, some people were unwilling to practice, so they split into the world of practice and secular world. The Datong society then collapsed. Because the secular world began to indulge in pleasure and was insufficient in productivity at that time, they evolved from Datong society to slave society. Later, writing and productivity were developed, and they became overly to feudal society. It was not until the Spring and Autumn Period that Lao Tzu summarized Taoism in words.

Therefore, in this world, light and darkness coexist, and no one can completely eliminate darkness. However, there is another rule in Yin and Yang studies, that is, "Yang is the master of Yin and Subordinate", that is, when the male energy is equal to the negative energy, the male energy must dominate. Westerners are still at the low level, and whoever dominates the positive and negative ions is not necessarily the lower level.

According to the law of "Yang Master Yin and Subordinate", we can find that in a healthy country, although the evil forces exist, they cannot be on the surface and are in a state of death when they see the light.

A country that is about to perish must have a stronger negative energy than positive energy. The evil forces have begun to openly swagger and suppress the power of justice. Because of the law of Yang mastering Yin and obedience, this state must not last long. When the ruler cannot change this phenomenon, once the suppressed positive energy bursts out, it will change the dynasty. Just like lightning, the yang energy in spring revives and begins to fight with the yin energy. The stronger yang energy is surrounded and compressed, and then lightning is generated.

Just as Zeng Guofan once said, there were three signs before the fall of the Qing Dynasty.

1. No matter what happens, there is no distinction between black and white.

2. Kind people are becoming more and more humble and polite; evil people are becoming more and more respected.

3. After the problem reaches a serious level, everything is rationalized and everything is accused of. It is inexplicably responded to.

40 years after Zeng Guofan's death, the Qing Dynasty was indeed destroyed.

The three signs of the destruction of the country summarized by Zeng Guofan are actually derived through Yin and Yang studies, which is the advanced level of China's unique "analogical thinking". Through complex appearances, we can compare the Yin and Yang Five Elements, the Zhouyi Eight Trigrams, and then see the essence through theoretical deduction. When solving the problem, we will deduce the general principles through theory. To solve the problem according to this general principle, the country will naturally return to normal.

Westerners do not have this ability to think logically because they lack a core system of analogy. This is also the reason why Westerners sometimes have rigid brains and look stupid.

When Westerners govern a country, they pay great attention to details, but they do not have such a clear awareness in the general direction and often make very low-level mistakes. For example, Western countries are actually played around by merchants and religions, which is a low-level mistake that is completely impossible in China.

However, this way of thinking in Westerners makes them less smart, but it does not mean that their brains are more stupid. Therefore, their way of thinking also has their advantages, so they will continue to be stubborn. They will create many deformed monsters, such as technology, and then use absolute material advantages to bully other backward countries.

The different ways of thinking also make the country completely different from the methods of governing China and Westerners. Chinese leaders govern the country through analogy thinking, putting forward major principles and general directions. As long as the direction does not go astray, the country will naturally become stronger and do not pay much attention to details.

The same is true in the military. The Chinese people pay attention to the general direction in the military and do not go astray. Westerners pursue the power of weapons, thinking that superior equipment and materials can gain the upper hand, and are relatively sloppy in strategy. The Korean War fully demonstrated the differences between China's military and Western military. Although the Chinese volunteer army was backward, it could still compete with the advanced US military, which ultimately defeated the United States' ambition to support puppet countries on the entire Korean Peninsula.

At this time, Zhu Youxiao was engaged in anti-corruption, and as long as corruption was allowed to die in the sky, it would be considered successful. The current Ming Dynasty was already in line with the three precursors summarized by Zeng Guofan.

Through the study of Yin and Yang and Five Elements, we can easily draw a conclusion that if we want to save the Ming Dynasty, the general direction is to crack down on evil forces and let justice gain the upper hand again. Let kind people speak loudly.

If these Qi, Chu, Zhejiang, Propaganda Party clerks were still greedy for the law, even if they could do things, they would only make the Ming Dynasty survive and would not essentially improve the problem.

Zhu Youxiao's anti-corruption strategy is to start with these gangsters who defect to him first, and then expand their positions. In this area, once all corruption is discovered, it will be severely punished, so that all corruption will die in the sky and there is no room for compromise. If these officials can embezzle and not be discovered, it is their ability. There is no need to worry about this issue. Natural laws are destined to prevent corruption from being completely eliminated.

The Chinese officialdom will be corrupt, and it has always been corrupt from the top to the bottom. If the top takes the lead in greed, the bottom will follow the greed. If the top is responsible for corruption among the upper-level officials, the influence will gradually expand to the middle and lower levels.

In terms of governing the country, China's traditional model can be compared to "Yang", and Yang is Qi, which is more ethereal. Westerners' model that pays attention to details can be regarded as "Yin", Yin is quality, and more specific. The two have their own advantages and disadvantages, and the national strength is not much different, when they fight together, the Chinese model still has a certain advantage because positiveness plays a dominant role.

However, the lonely yang does not grow, and the lonely yin does not grow. Although it can last for a while, it cannot be maintained for a long time. According to the laws of Yin and Yang and the Five Elements, the balance of Yin and Yang can "all things grow". Therefore, the best governance model is to comprehensively formulate major principles. Use traditional Chinese techniques to formulate details and Westerners to formulate details, so the country can be strong.

As a time traveler, Zhu Youxiao obviously has great advantages in this regard. In the 21st century, China has paid more attention to details in order to catch up with Western countries, although it has not reached the level of almost "being possessed" like the Westerners. In this era, there were actually many officials who knew how to use traditional national skills to govern the country. After all, the literati of these days have learned the Yin and Yang Five Elements and the Zhouyi Eight Trigrams, and grasping the principle of the great is what they are best at. So why is the support of the literati so important during the rebellion? It is because they can provide guidance on the great principles and strategies.

Before Zhu Youxiao waited for a long time, the advantage of time travelers was "combined with the traditional Chinese advantages of governing the country," because the cabinet chief minister gave him three memorials within one day and proposed many strategies for governing the country, which immediately made Zhu Youxiao feel like he had a treasure.
