wandering fairy

Although it was impossible to capture the enemy's castle, the barbarians damaged two defensive towers, which still hit the enemy's arrogance.After withdrawing the troops and returning to the camp, the prince personally hosted a banquet for Manzi, Grimm and others in the luxurious tent, and said: "You have greatly boosted our morale in this battle. I have ordered someone to make a separate banner for you. From now on, you will be Our 'Lightning Brigade', you don't need to be called 'barbarians' anymore, you should be called 'Strikers'!! Your heroic posture is like a storm and lightning, making the enemy tremble! Knock them down from the sky!!"

What the leader said was very sweet, and the barbarians with new titles all blushed happily: "Striker? Good name! Good name! What kind of barbarians are you? !! We are also people with heads and faces!!" So everyone drank to their heart's content, and the host and guest enjoyed themselves.

The next morning, Master Ge, who was sleeping with the young woman in his arms, was woken up by the prince's attendants. He came to the king's tent surrounded by guards, and had a serious talk with the prince: "Although the barbarians~~~Although the blitzers are very strong, If the number is insufficient, it will be difficult to capture the enemy fortress on the opposite side for a while. The Apolis Foundry Association said that it will arrange some flying structures, but the asking price is too high. We have to think of other ways. Right now, there are some The family released rumors through secret channels, ready to talk to me. But~~~You also know~~~~I can’t agree to them so quickly~~~~These people are full of honey, double-faced and three-handed, and they are often tricked, saying Maybe spread the news of my peace talks with them, and take the opportunity to cause something trouble. Anyway, they are a group of difficult guys. So~~~ Can you Xinghan Society help me find out the news? I want accurate news!"

It's to help you negotiate terms!Although Master Ge, who knows the truth, was reluctant, he still took the job, turned around and took people back to the Meikaili Church Building in Forge City, and contacted Dong Hezi: "When you see these rich people, they always bring some expensive gifts. Right. I don’t have any money here, so lend me some money. This is for Xinghan’s business. It should be reimbursed by Xinghan.”

"Reimbursement for your size! I'm short of money!" Dong Hezi in the picture pointed to the giant rock pillars behind which were thicker than sentry towers. Some of them seemed to be covered with a layer of shiny brass, and they were really expensive. Create something!At this time, the huge pillars are surrounded by strange colored whirlwinds, making a rumbling sound: "I have just researched a sample of the 'atmospheric' generator, and I need a lot of money to continue the experiment. How can I give you the balance? .”

I saw that on the giant pillars of four or five stories high, some cyclones were mixed with a lot of ice slag and cold wind.Some are foggy cyclones billowing with moisture, and some cyclones seem to be connected to the elemental plane of fire, forming a huge 'fire whirlwind' that radiates heat and envelops the shiny brass columns inside, a majestic and majestic scene!

"Why do you do this?" Grimm was curious: "Isn't there an elemental aggregation array that can extract energy from the four major elemental planes?" But Dong Hezi said: "The extraction ability of the elemental aggregation array is also subject to the rules of the universe. Otherwise, the stability of the magic circle will be very poor. Now we need to produce more air-type and electric-type magic, relying on it is not enough. We redesigned the air element capture magic circle.

"You also know that because of the different temperature and humidity, the flow of the changing atmosphere is sometimes a power generator, sometimes an insulator, sometimes a conductor, and can form a huge capacitance. Using these characteristics, we have created a set of complex 'Atmospheric power generation and energy storage system' - we tear up the larger channel of the fire element plane, use the heat of the flame and these different air columns to create a strong current, and then we can get more air and electricity spells to satisfy The needs of those savage fighters. This system can obtain several times the energy of the elemental aggregation circle, and the stability is better. But the initial investment is very large. So, I am short of money now!!"

Master Ge spread his hands: "If you don't give me anything, the negotiation will be ruined. How about borrowing some treasures from Mei Kaili Church?" But seeing Dong Hezi pondering for a while: "No. There is a very interesting book. It can be given as a gift to those rich people. They will be very happy."

Grimm saw that it was actually a book introducing Confucius' Confucianism!It is usually used as a temporary teaching material.Tell Grimm and the others stories and open their eyes.But: "This~~~ It talks about a lot of loyalty, filial piety, benevolence and righteousness. Are you going to let those double-faced, honey-mouthed rich families be loyal, filial, benevolent and righteous? What are you thinking!"

Dong Hezi waved his hand and said: "Loyalty, filial piety, benevolence and righteousness?? Have you forgotten what I said before? Loyalty, filial piety, benevolence and righteousness are just a fig leaf that Confucius hangs outside. Like many schools of his time, loyalty, filial piety, benevolence and righteousness should be emphasized. But Confucius has a The point is fundamentally different from them. Do you recall?"

Master Ge tried his best to recall it again: "Transfer filial piety to loyalty~~~~ and~~~ and~~~ advocating family enfeoffment."

"That's right! Let's start with family enfeoffment first, and then focus on transferring filial piety to loyalty. This is the real core of Confucius." Dong Hezi directly pierced the painting: "Under the superficial 'loyalty, filial piety, benevolence and righteousness' are the social means of production. It has been completely privatized and familyized. The ultimate goal is to achieve family privatization of the economy, family privatization of social organizations, and finally family privatization of government.”

Master Ge finally got up at the meeting: "Remember! Although in name there is 'benevolence at the top and loyalty at the bottom'. But the king's benevolence often benefits the people around him the most, and the family or family alliance formed by these people has become a fact. Even if the king is kind to the people at the bottom and collects less taxes, they, the upper-middle-class wealthy families, can use various means to rob the bottom people of their property or interests, and eventually form an alliance regime of big landlords, big businessmen, and big families. Once the king wants Strictly deal with these people. They can immediately use 'inhumanity' against the king."

"At the same time, they can use 'loyalty' to deal with people at the bottom. In name, 'transferring filial piety to loyalty' is to serve the king, but in fact once the country adopts the 'family enfeoffment' system, the king can't control so many places at all. The specific managers of various places are these big landlords, big wealthy merchants, and big family alliances. The people at the bottom "transfer filial piety to loyalty" and are actually loyal to these families, thus forming a political structure of "family, no nation, and no country". Hey, those rich people in Forge City will definitely like this thing! They don't lack money, what they lack most is power."

"And Kong Qiu's theory is exactly the theoretical tool and public opinion tool for them to realize their rule!" Dong Hezi said: "Let's talk about this matter with Prince Alex. What Confucius said means that the two sides reached a compromise. .The 'cultural agreement' to carve up the country together. The two sides respect Confucius, that is, an agreement has been reached. God doesn't know it, and the ghost doesn't know it. Why bother with pen and paper."

Master Ge took this 'gift' to pay homage to one of the big families. Although this family doesn't have much farmland, it occupies a large share in the sugar industry. At the same time, it imports foreign spices and trades some arcane raw materials.It also concurrently operates gold and silver currency and gemstone exchange business.The stores are widely spread all over the country of Olivier.And their family's mansion is not in the city of Forge, but on a steep hill in the outskirts of the river. It is built from the river to the mountainside, which is quite grand!

From a distance, they are a group of wide buildings and tall towers composed of buildings with different styles. The buildings are of different colors, blue, gold, purple and green, which are beautiful like fairy tale castles;There are even some thick and tall towers emitting obvious arcane aura.It is really stricter and tougher than the local Governor's Mansion.It is indeed a powerful family that has been run for generations!

At the gate, two black iron statues of spear cavalry stood still.But it was a steel golem in disguise.In front of the gate of the two-story building made of pure steel, there is a strict spell search by the old mage of the family and a group of arcane soldiers stepping forward to take away their weapons.Master Ge and the four sniper barbarians were mercilessly deprived of all offensive weapons, including daggers and magic wands.Even the accompanying Liujia Shenwei masters are no exception!The old mage guarding the gate just said: "If you want to go in and pay homage to the master, you must leave your weapons here. Otherwise, the high priest of your religion will come, and it will not work!"

This is actually bragging.If the high priest really came, the two parties would definitely not come to the door so hastily; they did not dare to really unload the high priest's belongings.But now this statement also shows that he has a lot of confidence.As soon as Master Dangge led the displeased master and blitzman Manzi in, he immediately saw an open square and five-story bright buildings surrounding the square, with an open momentum.A royal atmosphere!The male and female servants along the way are dressed like flowers, and some female relatives with beautiful umbrellas can be seen in the garden on the mountainside in the distance.What a scene of an outdoor paradise.

This time, only a person in charge came out, exchanged some polite greetings, and Master Ge hinted at his background and gave him a gift of books.After the other party asked them to take it down, they were invited to have lunch and the meeting ended.The farewell only said that the master is very busy these two days, please wait a few days for Master Ge to hear.

one out.A few sniper savages took their weapons and began to mutter: "Straight mother thief! You are so fucking rich! I think they are richer than the previous few earls who robbed! If they don't know how to praise, they will rob next time." Here!" Another person said: "It's no fun just to grab it, you should occupy it!! Get all those women to enjoy. Hahahaha! How do you think these big businessmen are so rich? Much better than that bird prince La!"

Grimm smiled: "Although the Wang family is an expensive royal family, the situation has always been turbulent and wars are frequent. Territory and power struggles are mostly expensive things. Therefore, the expenses of the Wang family are also huge. On the contrary, these rich people, hiding Under the wings of the Wang family, I have accumulated for many years, but the expenses are not that big. Living a small life is more comfortable than the Wang family. Sigh~~~ If they succeed in playing double tricks and escape this catastrophe again, they will have to Keep enjoying your life."

"Dog. Day~~~" The sniper savages were extremely dissatisfied: "Let's go and talk to the prince, just take this city of Forge and carve up these castles and women! Why do you let these unreliable bastards continue to enjoy themselves? ??" Master Ge educated them very well: "They have power all over the country, have intelligence to investigate news, have contacts to encourage people at all levels, and have financial resources to support the battle. This is very important for the prince who is eager to restore the country. .In the future, if the prince can be successfully restored, local governance will also need manpower. If there are no them, do you rely on you to govern the local area? You will be thankful for not creating a bunch of axe gangs. Haha."

The lightning strikers were still unconvinced: "The latest version of "Lei Gang Law Body" contains methods for managing military affairs and local affairs. If it doesn't work, let's follow it!" Grimm remembered that Dong Hezi was in the latest version. Some strange contents are added to the book, all of which are principles extracted from "Guanzi" and "Mozi", such as how to control grain and major minerals, how to formulate taxes, principles and basic methods of fiscal and tax distribution, construction of water conservancy roads and markets, and disaster relief. Resettlement, how the central government communicates with the grassroots, the public opinion finance that the country needs to control, etc., and how to govern in different countries and situations.It even broke up the secret association method in Hongmen and wrote it in.In fact, they are all simple templates. Even if you memorize them thoroughly, there are still many difficulties in actually doing them.What's more, these sniper savages don't have enough character and knowledge.

The only advantage is probably that the methods of social governance and political operation have flowed into the people, so that these people are no longer a mess.If you rebel.Holding this book, you will know roughly how to organize and how to establish a political power after siege and looting, and you will not become something like Huang Chao Li Chuang.

On the third day, Master Ge got the news that the owner of that house was willing to see him.So he took the masters and barbarians to go.This time, I went into the colorful manor.The complex high and low buildings are connected by corridors carved with Jingmen, with some green vines and flowers of various colors climbing up and down.The embellished corridors are very beautiful.Don't feel like a quiet and elegant pavilion.

And what came out was a floating throne surrounded by everyone.This throne one foot above the ground was protected by layers of magic power, and a thin old man sat inside.They seemed to be passing by here, and they were going to relax in the open and large garden next to them. When they saw Master Ge passing by, the old man in the Chinese robe sitting on the throne suddenly said, "The book of Confucius~~~ Well, at first glance, he looks like a frustrated third-rate feudal politician. I have read a lot of his books, like McCain and Palin of Canremaia. I also write such books, although the content is different, but they are all How can an out-of-date conservative politician be useful? Moreover, he advocates filial piety over loyalty, but if everyone is loyal to the monarch, the monarch's power will be too great. How can we 'common people' live our lives."

Master Ge immediately understood: "It is said that filial piety is transferred to loyalty, but can the monarch really manage so many things and so many industries? He can't. It's your turn to manage. Besides, in name, loyalty and filial piety are two powers." But filial piety is better than loyalty. Even if you commit a heinous death crime, your children and grandchildren can "steal the burden and escape, and forget the world happily". The national law is a fart in front of the clan's interests. Even if you betray the country and the nation, it is because Great 'filial piety'."

The wrinkled old man finally smiled: "You are honest, not like that book. You cover it up and deliberately make it difficult for people to see the truth. I still feel uneasy—after all, there is a ' "Transfer filial piety to loyalty", if the national law is too strong to "steal the burden and escape", then what should we 'common people' do. And he wants us to be the public. This is really~~~"

Master Ge then said: "This spring and autumn brushwork is a must-have skill for politicians. Besides, the premise of 'transforming filial piety to loyalty' is 'self-restraint and return to ritual'. The ritual is definitely not the ethics of good and evil, or daily etiquette, but the land of nobles. The social norms under the enfeoffment system. The aristocratic land enfeoffment system is divided from top to bottom. Land, the most important national resource, belongs to the private ownership of noble families. The society on the land is also privately owned by noble families, big and small, and political power is greater. It's private."

"Self-restraint and restoration of rituals means that instead of centralizing power, a group of rich families should divide up everything in the country according to Zhou etiquette. It is necessary to restore the privatization of the wealthy families in the economy, the privatization of the wealthy families in social management, and the privatization of the powerful political families. This is Confucius The core of Qiu’s theory! It’s called the world is the public, but the actual system design is "three privates"! If the monarch does not engage in "three privates", it means that he does not have "self-denial and return to propriety". What kind of loyalty and filial piety are you talking about when the people punish crimes?"

The old man finally nodded: "Sure enough! But if the land enfeoffment system is restored, the nobles from all over the country will regain power, each land will be locked up, and taxes will be collected layer by layer, which will be very unfavorable to us small businesses and small households." Master Ge got Dong Hezi's advice, He has already made up his mind: "The book does not mention 'land enfeoffment', who can extend it there? Besides, the land aristocracy in your country has been greatly weakened in the civil strife more than ten years ago. Now a family like yours, There are lands in several duchies. Most of the dukes have also sold a lot of land. Now everyone is intermingled with each other, and it is hard to distinguish. If you really have to carry it hard, those bumpkins who rely on land alone have enough Will financial resources and foreign aid come against you? Times change, then we must prevent them from becoming bigger, and in the future we must prevent the return of kingship."

The old man laughed again: "Are you worthy of Prince Alex by doing this?" Master Ge solemnly replied: "The prince is willing to carve up the world with you, and hopes that you can also 'make the world a public'. This Confucian theory is Everyone's contract."

The old man smiled: "If he is really willing to restrain himself and return to the courtesy, we are also willing to try to serve the world."

+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + +

Satisfied, Master Ge led all the bodyguards out of the inner circle of buildings, and was guiding his attendants down to the Guangyao side hall decorated with glass for dinner, when he suddenly heard a familiar female voice with a silver bell next to him: "When two tigers fight, one must be injured. I wonder if Master Grimm is ready?"

The voice was beautiful and pleasant, and that pretty and tall figure caught everyone's eyes, and they couldn't move their eyes away!What a fresh and beautiful person, three points more touching than the stunning beauties in art paintings.Our Master Ge reacted even more, retreating a few steps, as if seeing a man-eating tiger: "You~~~You~~~ Don't mess around! This is~~~It's their territory"
