Infrastructure: I survive in troubled times

Chapter 424 Qin Lu
"Rest if I say rest!" Hong Lianshuo looked at Lin Nanzheng with a straight face and said.

"Okay, then let's take a day off and come to repair the embankment tomorrow." Lin Nanzheng nodded in response.

The army has to come to repair the embankment, and it won't take many days to repair it before it freezes.

The ground was frozen hard, and when the pickaxe went down, the ground remained motionless, leaving only light white marks.

So yeah!In and out of the city, except for the elderly and children, women who are infirm and unwell are all on both sides of the Wuding River.

Hong Lianshuo watched Lin Nanzheng leave and continue picking soil.

&*&
It has been snowing heavily for two days and two nights, and the world is completely white.

The embankment can't be repaired, and it can't be trained. All the staff are sitting on the kang at home.

"Grandma, it's a good thing that the kang was installed this year. If it was in previous years, I would have frozen to death." Lin Nanzheng stomped the snowy road on his feet, "Madam Hong, can we come in?"

"Come in, come in." Standing in front of the sand table, Hong Lianshuo called to them.

"The snow won't stop for a while. The snow that was swept just now has another layer." Han Qinhu opened the curtain and walked in, cupped his hands and said, "Ms. Hong."

"Look for yourself!" Hong Lianshuo said without raising his head.

Jiang Shuisheng, who was at the end, closed the door, went to the brazier, and added some firewood.

"It's too cold in this room." Han Qinhu looked at the empty room and said, "We should add two more braziers."

"No matter how much you add, it's not as comfortable as the kang." Lin Nanzheng said in a muffled voice with his hands in his armholes.

"The sand table is almost ready, so there's no need to worry about it." Hong Lianshuo said without raising his head.

"This is exactly the same as the real thing." Standing in front of the sand table, Han Qinhu couldn't help admiring the landforms around Yandu City.

Lin Nanzheng was amazed, looked straight at her with his phoenix eyes and said, "Your craftsmanship is unique in the whole world."

"Don't care about the boasting, you have to win the battle. Otherwise, it's just talk on paper." Hong Lianshuo continued to bend his waist and keep busy, "This is not just for watching."

"Understood." Jiang Shuisheng nodded hurriedly when he heard the words, "Brothers are as hungry and thirsty as wolves, and they are all looking forward to a good fight."

After the end, Hong Lianshuo straightened up, looked at them with a smile on his face and said, "Why are you here?" He walked to the brazier and sat down on the saddle to warm himself up.

Those under the snow can't build embankments, and they can't train. They can only teach soldiers and soldiers inside the house.

"There is still some time before the afternoon class, so come and have a look." Han Qinhu stared at the sand table without blinking.

"Come and sit, it's warmer here." Hong Lianshuo said, pointing the little horse around the brazier.

"Let's take a look." Lin Nanzheng stared at the sand table without blinking his phoenix eyes.

"Have you read the law these days?" Hong Lianshuo said casually, rolling his hands.

"Speaking of this, there are so many bamboo slips of the law that you have to use a cart to carry them. It's not easy to read through." Han Qinhu came over and raised his pants, sat down and looked at her and said.

"It's okay, take your time." Hong Lianshuo said with a slight smile, raising the corners of his lips.

"I also read the law, and I have been thinking about one thing." Lin Nanzheng came over and looked at them and said.

"What's the matter?" Hong Lianshuo looked up at him slightly and said.

Lin Nanzheng sat down, stretched out his hands to warm the fire and said, "Do you think this person is inherently good or inherently evil?"

"Sex is good! The moment a child is born, he doesn't know anything." Jiang Shuisheng thought for a while and said, bending over and pulling the ponytail to sit down.

"You want to say that human beings are inherently good, so why are there still people who break the law, and even seriously kill people?" Hong Lianshuo asked, looking directly at him.

"Then human nature is inherently evil?" Lin Nanzheng shook his head slightly and said, "But there are also kind people, good people!"

"It doesn't seem to justify itself." Han Qinhu blinked at them and said, his eyes fell on Hong Lianshuo and said, "What do you think?"

"I believe that human nature is empty at the beginning." Hong Lianshuo looked at them coldly and said.

"Empty? Nothing?" Jiang Shuisheng looked at her with dark eyes and said.

"A child is born as a blank sheet of paper. What will it become? It depends on his growth environment." Hong Lianshuo looked at them with deep and honest eyes.

"Growing environment? You said this reminds me of Meng's mother moving three times." Han Qinhu looked at her with bright brown pupils and said.

"That's right!" Hong Lianshuo looked at them with warm eyes like jade and said, "Children with a blank sheet of paper need the guidance of human ethics and morality and the severe punishment of the law. Only in this way can the evil in human nature be restrained." Seriously again Said, "Any lack of punishment for evil will only fuel the flames of evil."

"The harsh punishment law you advocate has been restored to the Qin law." Han Qinhu looked at her with light brown pupils and said.

"If you want to say that, I am advocating severe punishments and strict laws, because sometimes if you don't do this, you can't deter the young people." Hong Lianshuo said gently, "Of course this specific issue has been analyzed in detail." The conversation changed, "Qin Law It's not as harsh as you think."

"How is that possible?" Lin Nanzheng immediately retorted upon hearing the words, "Qin law is strict, and he chops hands and feet, knees, and waist, all five punishments. When Shang Yang first practiced Qin law, he personally judged the prison on the banks of the Weishui River. More than 700 people were beheaded within a day. The number of fingers and feet that were cut off was so horrible that the entire Weihe River was dyed red."

Han Qinhu shuddered and said, "This Qin law is not only strict but also extremely detailed. All aspects of life are strictly restricted. The people must be cautious. If they are careless, they will break the law and they will be punished."

"During the Warring States period, Lu Zhonglian once commented on Qin Fa. If Qin was allowed to rule him, he would rather commit suicide by jumping into the sea." Lin Nanzheng said, staring at her with his phoenix eyes.

"What you said is all right, but Han law inherited Qin law. It's useless for you to deny it. You can compare it." Hong Lianshuo looked at them with a smile on his lips and said, holding up his index finger, "there are seven heroes in the Warring States period. But Qin State unified the world."

"This..." Han Qinhu and Lin Nanzheng looked at each other.

"Troubled times should use heavy codes! Sometimes it is necessary to enforce regulations to improve efficiency and make the whole people move." Hong Lianshuo looked at them and thought for a while, "It's like we are now under military control and rationing, regardless of military and civilian everything." Actions follow orders. This will definitely not last forever, and it will definitely change after the summer harvest next year." Then he said, "In Qin Shi, this is a lazy thing to do, and stealing and cheating are illegal."

"When you say that, I think of officials and concubines in Qin Fazhong." Lin Nanzheng turned his phoenix eyes lightly to look at them and said, "Because I committed a crime, or was captured, or my relatives served as official servants, men are called servants." , Women are called concubines. During the Qin Dynasty, concubines were sentenced to life imprisonment, but there is a way of redemption."
