Survival Three Kingdoms

Chapter 610
The moderator of the debate is Jiang Gan, and the venue is still located in Xuzhou University.The college specially set aside one of the largest lecture halls as a clubhouse. Even so, the entire hall was packed to the brim with students.

As a special guest, Zhou Cang will deliver a speech before the debate.

"This debate contest, I think, is very good and very novel. In the future, many of our major initiatives can be made in this form, but we need to establish rules and procedures.

I believe that most of you are out of public interest, but it is inevitable that some people will have self-interest, which is understandable... You don’t have to rush to express your position, pat your chest to express your loyalty, and swear and swear can’t mean anything. steelyard, but the weight is the common people.Although our decisions may not be correct, they can at least represent the views and wishes of the majority.

Today, everyone can speak freely and debate on this occasion without guilt.On this occasion, everyone is equal and can express their own opinions. There is no superior or teacher, just discuss the matter as it stands, and they are still colleagues outside of this place.But everyone should not gossip unrestrainedly, cloud mountains and mist, don't know what to say, let alone make troubles and make troubles for no reason. It is a waste of time and disappoints the expectations of the people and the trust of the court.Matters that cannot be resolved after discussion are decided by voting, and the minority obeys the majority.

Now that I have already said it, I will throw a brick and say a few more words.Rituals originated from worshiping gods and praying for blessings. Today's rituals are firstly moral concepts, secondly customs and habits, and thirdly codes of conduct.Everyone has read poetry and books, regardless of the opinions of various schools, we can see that rituals are not static in different periods.In other words, you need to keep pace with the times.I'm not saying that the old rituals are wrong, but they are not in line with the current affairs. For example, Ge Jun developed the waterwheel. Should we abandon it and continue to carry water by hand?How many acres of fields can be irrigated and how many people can be fed?

Our decisions are neither static nor changed overnight. When we find that it is inappropriate, we should re-study, discuss, and form new decisions!This is keeping pace with the times.

In the past, what we heard was often the opinion of a family. What we have to do today is to brainstorm, learn from others, choose the good ones and follow them, and change the bad ones. Our gift from Xuzhou.This is not a hasty decision by us alone, but a joint participation and discussion by all of us.

Everyone discusses how to set the ceremony, but I just listen to it, and I will follow it after it is set.Form is the external appearance of substance, which is very important. It may be the expression of true feelings, or it may be a pretentious gesture. Therefore, I hope that everyone should pay more attention to the essence, not to be mere formality, not to exaggerate, and there must be no comparison and extravagance. , let alone become an umbrella for those who try to catch fame!

Xun Ziyun: There is no greater danger than treacherous people who will steal their name in the dark world.Whether it is right or wrong is open to debate, but in my opinion, the country and the people should be put first in everything, and doing more good things for the people is the best gift!I, Xuzhou, must not be used to bully the world and steal the world!
As the saying goes, you can't become fat if you eat one bite, and it's impossible for us to straighten things out in one go, but this is a bold attempt by us, and everyone here is a pioneer in exploring the way.A wise man once said: There is no road in the world, if there are many people walking, there will be a road! "

In addition to shock or shock, Zhou Cang's attitude is already clear and can't be more clear: rituals must be changed, and a new system must be re-established, not because the past is wrong, but because it is not in line with the current affairs; not only rituals, but I'm afraid In the future, many decisions will be made in this way. Whether this is Zhou Cang's decentralization or a cover-up.In terms of Xuzhou's decision-making, is it a good thing or a bad thing to have a say, and will it be settled after the fall?How to make good use of the right to speak to defend one's ideas?Different people have different ideas and perceptions.

Zhou Cang looked around: "There are a lot of people here today, which means that everyone is very concerned about everything. Good! Good! Good! The last thing I want to say is that there are no rules. Rules, you can go back and discuss. Tomorrow, 50 people will be selected as the main personnel. Attacking, looking for other people's shortcomings to maliciously slander. The third rule, since it is a discussion, then discuss it well." Zhou Cang clapped his hands, and several personal guards came out in response. "The third rule is that no hands are allowed, and no throwing at each other is allowed. If anyone wants to do it, you can compete with them."

The audience roared with laughter. "Duke Liao said it as a joke. I'm a reckless man who has studied poetry and books."

At the beginning of Jiang Gan's presidency, the response from everywhere was not positive, and more people were waiting and watching, one was to listen to what others said, and the other was to listen to Zhou Cang's reaction.The result was surprising. Zhou Cang listened to everyone's speech with great interest, but he didn't say a word.An hour later, Zhou Cang seemed to remember something.

"You guys go on, maybe I won't be so restrained if I'm not here. It just so happens that I have something important to go to the chamber of commerce, and you just report the results to me."

Say it, Zhou Cang got up and left.Those who are well-informed know that this is not Zhou Cang's excuse. It is said that a few days ago, a member of the Chamber of Commerce came back from the northwest and brought back something. Liao Gong called it cotton. , Quilt, excellent warmth.Lord Liao is going to discuss with colleges, farmers, and merchants how to try planting and promote utilization.

Every new crop brought by Duke Liao brought huge business opportunities. It is said that Beihai County is already full of sorghum, and the local people earn a lot of money.I am used to Zhou Cang's method of turning stones into gold, but now that cotton appears, it makes people crave for it, lest they fall behind.

Mu Nan and Zhang Lu were ordered to travel westward, and they had to overcome many difficulties and obstacles before arriving in the Western Regions. Here their luck was exceptionally good. They met merchants who were rich in food, and these merchants actually carried cotton and cotton seeds. The two buried them with a lot of money. And bought two slaves.Dashi merchants are different from the two orientals who know Dashi and the great Xerxes. They can't help being curious about the monarch they talk about, but they have seen the ferocity of the Qiang and Huns, so they dare not go east.

The mission arranged by Zhou Cang was half completed by the two of them. The military situation in the Northwest was very simple: Han Sui surrendered, and Cao Cao set up Liangzhou.Thanks to the civil strife in Xianbei, the internal fights were lively but they didn't dare to take advantage of the Han people, so the two detoured through the grasslands, crossed the Xianbei territory to Liaodong, and then returned to Xuzhou from Liaodong. It took the two of them more than a year to come and go.
