Chapter 34 Ask Jiang Cheng

He led Wen Chou and Chen Ning to the front stairs of the hall, asking Wen, Chen Xianxing, Wen, Chen Xunrang, and so humble three people ascended the stairs together. The east was the main position, the west was the guest position, Jiang Xuan went from the east, Wen Chou and Chen Ning went from the west.

After completing this set of etiquette for the host to welcome the guests into the hall, Wen Chou and others entered the hall.

There was nothing else in the hall except for a few seats and a few short tables. On the mat next to the east was an old man with a high Guanbo led him to kneel on the mat next to the window. He was watching the bamboo slips in his hand in the sun. When he heard Wen Chou and the others come in, he gently put down the bamboo slips and raised his head.

"Are you finished?" Wen Chou just stood in the hall and heard Jiang Cheng say.

"I have not arrived at Mr. Jiang's mansion first, so I would like to forgive me." Wen Chou bowed and smiled.

"Haha, please go to the table." Jiang Cheng signaled Wen Chou with his hands. After Wen Chou took off his shoes, sat on the mat, and put on the robe, he looked Wen Chou up and down and continued, "Wang Jun is dressed in a good official manner, but he is here to be a humble house with a rank! I wonder what you can do to teach me?"

"Haha, does Mr. Jiang want to make fun of the boy?" Wen Chou also smiled.

"I have never met you when you come to my house. Two strokes disappear, two strokes disappear." Jiang Cheng smiled with satisfaction.

"Thank you, Mr. Jiang, I won't blame you for coming here late!" Wen Chou continued.

"If you are a gentleman like a humble gentleman, if you don't know, you will never have thought that Wen Chou is still a powerful general who dares to go deep into the thief camp!" Jiang Cheng, after entering the hall, he was well-mannered and indifferent, and he couldn't help but sigh.

"It's Jiang Gong Miao who has been praised. How can a rough guy be a rude person? He is just trying to restrain himself and make himself look like a scholar." Wen Chou Gongjin said.

"Haha, Wenjun, there is no need to be modest, but what I say is pertinent!" Jiang Cheng shook his hand and said, as if I look down on you very much.

"In this way, the boy has received the praise of Mr. Jiang." Wen Chou saw Jiang Cheng's expression and knew that he had a good initial impression of his days, so he said happily.

Jiang Xuan presented the hot soup and stood behind Xuanbo's seat with Chen Ning.

Jiang Cheng picked up the wooden slut, took a sip, moistened his throat, no longer politely with Wen Chou, and said seriously: "You are now in a state of dignity and you will see me with courtesy, but are you here for political affairs?"

"One of the time, I admire Mr. Jiang's virtue, the second is to thank Mr. Jiang for his past few days, and the third is to come for political affairs." Wen Chou also replied in a solemn manner.

Wen Chou said that Jiang Cheng worked for the villagers, but since the Black Mountain bandits came, Jiang Cheng gave advice to Du Yi, who was in office and made outstanding contributions to successfully breaking the bandits.

"Since the time that Du Gong was summoned by Duke Du in March for bandits, he first defeated the thief in Taolin, which is wise; then he killed the thief chief in the thief camp, which can be called brave; and also defeated Lin Qing's case of the enemy, which is highly valued by the prime minister and had orders. Then he visited the people in the village, and the people praised him for goodness and could be called benevolence. Confucius said: 'The benevolent must be brave, and the brave do not need benevolence'. The poem says: 'The gentleman is clear and righteous, all the gentlemen are worthy of the essays'. Yang Xiong, a master of essays in the previous dynasty, also said in "Xie Chao": 'Xiao Rules Cao and Zuo Hou's painting strategy, Chen Ping was amazing, his achievements were as good as Mount Tai, and his sound was as good as Mount Tai. Even if the person is brave and wise, he can also be able to do it at the time." The king can be called a benevolent and brave gentleman, a brave and wise man. At this time, the troubled times are about to arise, which can be said to be at this time! I wonder what you think? I wish to hear it." Jiang Chengfu Xu said long.

"You are stupid, how dare you compare with the former saint? It's a shame." Wen Chou heard that Jiang Cheng was compared with Xiao He, Han Xin, Cao Shen, Chen Ping and others, and was ashamed and hurriedly worshipped Jin.

"Haha, Wenjun doesn't have to do this. The reason why the former saints were saints was actually tormented by people from later generations. They are also ordinary people, but they are just at the right time! In this way, you should not underestimate yourself!" Jiang Cheng said with a smile.

"Thank you, Mr. Jiang," Wen Chou frowned and pondered. After a while, he saw that Jiang Cheng had no intention of continuing to speak. He seemed to wait for him to talk about the current situation in the world. He also said: "In today's world, the emperor sells titles and sells officials in Xiyuan, and eunuchs are in charge of power. There are constant border wars, and the country's power is becoming increasingly weak. Because of the severe drought in the country, the particles are not collected, and the taxes are not reduced. The thieves are gradually rising. This is because of the Yellow Turban. Although they are destroyed, there are still people holding their flags in many places. In order to eliminate the bandits, all the places have their own troops! This is a disaster, and they are afraid that chaos will soon come!"

Wen Chou said while looking at Jiang Cheng's expression. He saw that when he heard "the taxes are not reduced, the thieves are gradually rising", his face was dim. He was also deeply touched. When he heard "the chaos is coming soon", his face was already very surprised. He did not expect that Wen Chou could see the problem so thoroughly!

"You are very honest, but it is similar to what I have thought about for many days!" Jiang Cheng nodded with deep emotion. "But this is the general trend, not something that the common people should be concerned about. But you want to manage the village?" Jiang Cheng said this, his face became even more gloomy. Jiang Xuan, who stood behind him, was also lost in his mind. Wen Chou looked at these one by one and confirmed a little about the famous scholar who had hidden his name!

"Haha, this is the boy who came to ask Mr. Jiang, but why did Mr. Jiang ask him?" Wen Chou smiled and said, breaking the low atmosphere for a moment.

"Oh, it's my fault, I'm old, old." Jiang Cheng slapped his forehead and said. However, Jiang Cheng had a deep sense of recognition of Wen Chou's previous words and did not change his role for the time being. Should he ask Wen Chou?

"I'll ask Mr. Jiang to teach you!" Wen Chou said.

Seeing Wen Chou being respectful and not hiding his own private matters, Jiang Cheng said bluntly: "When Du Jun was in the past, he was generous and kind in his governance and did not disturb the people, and the people would like to be happy. You can follow his approach."

"Yes." Wen Chou replied.

"But there are a few points that Mr. Du did not do well." Jiang Cheng pondered for a moment and then said.

Wen Chou looked humbly asking for advice and asked, "Where is the place to ask for advice?"

"For example, when the people heard that the bandits were coming a few days ago, they were extremely panicked. Many of them moved their families to flee. This is a phenomenon that failed to give the people of Guizhou a safe environment! This is one of them." Jiang Chengshiran said.

"Prepare the enemy to the people to calm their hearts! But this should not be prepared for military affairs every day, which is contrary to the national political activities! What should we do?" Wen Jian said in a question. The law says that the countryside should not be prepared for military affairs all year round to prevent civil affairs from chasing. After all, food is the most important thing for the people! Farming is the foundation of the country!

"I once heard that there was a military soldier who was left behind in Taolin Pass in the south of my hometown! It was only abandoned when the late emperor of this dynasty was inaugurated. Why not ask for orders to be in the country and re-establish their system?" Jiang Chengyan said.

"Reset the Taolin Cangmen to prevent the bandits of the Black Mountain Army!" Jiang Cheng said so clearly. If Wen Chou doesn't know how to do it, he will be a time traveler. Then he excitedly said. If this matter is done, then Wen Chou will have his own first unit! At that time, he can draw Ding Zhuang from the villagers and train them all year round. It is definitely a strong soldier that is far better than the militia that has gathered hastily a few days ago!

"The villagers are mostly poor. Although they have received some rewards recently and have slightly solved their poverty situation, it is not a long-term solution. Recently, there are many refugees who have broken families and need to be comforted. Therefore, they should think about their wealth and enrich the villagers. This is the second thing." Jiang Cheng said as Wen Chou looked at Wen Chou's slightly excited expression.

Wen said the scandal and thought to himself: "Hold rich people to gather their ambitions! If the villagers are rich, their sense of identity will inevitably be strengthened, and their desire to protect their homes will be more urgent! But how can it be done?"

"This makes the villagers rich, can Du Gong have a good idea?" Wen Chou leaned forward and asked anxiously.

"The strategy to enrich the people depends on the person in charge!" Jiang Chengxiao said meaningfully.

Wen Chou couldn't understand it, and when he asked again, Jiang Chengduo avoided answering and had no choice but to give up.

"There are two more, is there any, Mr. Jiang?" Wen Chou asked again after leaving behind the wealthy people.

"There are some big surnames in the village who take advantage of the chaos to merge land and oppress the people. This is one harm! It should be suppressed. This is the third one." Jiang Cheng spoke for a long time and felt uncomfortable in his throat. He coughed twice. He picked up a wooden bowl and drank a sip of water, moistening his throat and continued: "The customs of the countryside are honest, the villagers are simple, and the people are easy to cure, but some big surnames are not easy to cure. Although Du's rule does not disturb the people, he is too tolerant to some big surnames and is often unrestrained, which is a shortage. Now that you take over the village, you have orders. If you want to do something, you can start from these three places..... You ask me how to govern, and these are the only ones I know." ps: Please recommend, please collect.
