Chapter Thirteen: Control the Chaos

On the other hand, this heavy rain made the project of immigrating to western Liaoning much easier. Originally, the people were most concerned about the land and were unwilling to leave the land that had been raised from generation to generation. However, under such heavy rain, there was nothing to do. In order to survive, they had to follow the migration of the imperial court organization and head all the way to western Liaoning.

Only when we arrived in western Liaoning did the people know what fertile land was and what fertile land was. It was a fertile land where you could squeeze out oil even if you squeeze a handful of soil. Unlike the land that has been reclaimed for thousands of years in the Middle Earth, the ground power has long been consumed.

However, in western Liaoning, few people have moved since the creation of the world. The fertilizer accumulated naturally for countless years is extremely gratifying no matter what it planted. Three years have passed, the military farm in western Liaoning has achieved fruitful results, and a large number of production has begun to feed back to the mainland of China.

Moreover, after so many years of heavy rains, even the north began to vigorously promote rice cultivation, and some other crops that could only grow in the north. Everything was so prosperous!

"You can't say that this ice-filled road is safe and sound," the coachman smiled, and had nothing to say. He didn't find any topics to chat, and this day was really sad: "It's just too hurting the horse's hooves!"

Uncle Song Yu laughed in silence. The so-called ice and soil were also inventions by the national teacher. It is simple to say, but it is made of mixing lime and clay. The ground laid out is neat, smooth and sturdy, so there is a name called ice and soil. Nowadays, the large streets in the capital are all covered with ice and soil.

Such a large project didn't even cost much, it was just a large number of refugees who used labor for relief. A large number of refugees were allowed to open mountains to get stones, burn lime, and lay roads. The water conservancy facilities around the capital were even renovated once, and they were built with ice and soil.

Moreover, the hygiene inside and outside the capital was even personally scrutinized by Fu Shuo. All hygiene habits have changed, such as taking off garbage in the street, urinating and defecating everywhere. If you catch it, you will press it to the ground and whip it. In the first month of execution, one in ten people in the capital were swollen behind the butts. There were complaints everywhere.

However, after this policy was adhered to, the people themselves discovered the benefits. They even did not even have to punish and obey the laws.

Of course, in addition to severe punishments and laws, the supporting facilities must also keep up. It is impossible for you to not let someone take out the garbage at will, but there is no way to deal with it. Let people pile up all the garbage at home, right? There is an emerging industry, called Ye Laixiang. It is a cleaner who cleans up garbage at night.

The entire capital city was implemented with the same style as Fu Shuo in southern Xinjiang. The effect was remarkable. Over the years, not only did the capital city change greatly, but the atmosphere in all parts of the world has been greatly improved.

The so-called "upward action and lower action" means that the king is right above and the subjects transform themselves. This is not only the ideal of Confucians, but also the best way to govern the society like the East based on unified agriculture.

Due to the vast territory and the lack of effective communication and transportation methods, the direct government governance model with every detail is impossible to achieve. Even if it is realized, it cannot last long. Moreover, the administrative cost is too high, which is not cost-effective at all.

It was like Qin State in Guanzhong that could achieve such fine management. However, after unifying the six countries, I found that this model could not be replicated. The territory was too widened, but the means of communication and transportation were limited... So the tragic Qin Empire fell down like a magnificent momentum.

Therefore, in the early years of the Han Dynasty, it was because of such experiences and lessons. Therefore, government affairs were simple, and it was advocated that Huang and Lao governed without doing anything. Even in the future, the imperial power did not go to the countryside, and it was also for this. If the government power directly ruled to the rural level, then the cost of administrative expenditure would be terrible. This is one of the most important lessons learned by the Celestial Empire in later generations, and that was the matter after communication and transportation were extremely convenient.

The ruling power of the court only reaches the county level, even so. Confucians of all generations still thought that the administrative cost was too high. Therefore, although Confucian ministers in later generations were all Confucian disciples, they actually embraced the Taoist style. It is better to have less than more things and govern without doing anything.

It is best for the court to ignore anything except tax collection. Because under the technical conditions at that time, it was normal to have poor supervision. Once something was done, it would immediately produce huge negative effects. Good things would turn into bad things, and in the end it would increase the burden on the people.

Therefore, what later Confucian scholars were most determined to oppose changes, oppose reforms, and oppose... Just look at the important matters of providing relief to disaster victims in ancient times, and in the end, 30 to 40% of the food that could be provided to disaster victims, it is said that the officials below have the ability, ethics and conscience. You can imagine how much administrative expenses are spent on doing other things?

Therefore, since ancient times, the most proud thing about famous officials is that they do not disturb the people!

The imperial court issued a decree to let the whole country handle it accordingly. The result is that good things often turn into bad things, and bad things turn into funerals. Whether it is the Grand Canal of Emperor Yang of Sui or the Flower and Stone Gang of Emperor Huizong of Song. Perhaps this matter itself is not so much, but when the execution is carried out, and the execution officials are working on it, it is infinitely expanded.

It is because of these reasons that a unique model of governing the world is derived, and it is also the most economical way. The so-called moral governance of the country!

Only by understanding these profound hidden meanings behind history can we better understand the way to govern the country. Instead of taking it for granted, we should use means that we think that we are advanced and wise are actually inappropriate.

That is just as stupid as Emperor Hui of Jin. The people in the world don’t even have to eat food. They even asked in surprise why they don’t eat meat?

It is actually a helpless way to expect the king and the officials from above to below to restrain themselves with morality.

For example, the series of things that Fu Shuo made in the capital were completely replicas when he was in Huashan County. Many people with ulterior motives did not wait for Fu Shuo to execute in the capital, and went to southern Xinjiang to learn from the scriptures early, and then carried out the implementation in their own jurisdiction. After Fu Shuo started to implement in the capital, the world responded, without issuing decrees, and all the local officials below began to learn this.

Such administrative costs have been reduced too much. If the Confucian school was prosperous, we would have to praise a few words of inaction and self-realization, and morality would be the most important thing. In fact, it is to organize and sanitate, and investment is less effective and effective, which is somewhat beneficial to the people. Secondly, the most important thing is to express our opinions to the national teacher and express our loyalty. We should take the team with practical actions.

Uncle Song Yu didn't think so far, let alone a person like him would not think of people from such a heart-wrenching perspective. (To be continued. Please search for Astronomy, novels are better, updated and faster!)
