Chapter 231 (4)
"If uncle becomes an official, it will be a blessing for us ordinary people. Now those who are in power, if they have half of your awareness, uncle, why should we not be happy in China?" Zhang Feng looked at the profound writing Calligraphy: "I think this calligraphy is a true portrayal of you, Uncle."

"Little comrade, what do you think of this painting?" Father Deng sat down and asked with great interest.

"Not good." Zhang Feng shook his head, and said again: "And this is just the state in the poem. How many people in this world can really do it?"

Deng's father was puzzled and said, "Don't you little comrades wish for such a peaceful and prosperous world? Why do you say it is not good?"

"When the water is clear, there will be no fish, and when people observe it, there will be no disciples. The Dao pays attention to balance. No matter which side of the balance it is, it must be equal to the other side. Otherwise, the balance will tilt and the world will still be unfair. Just use this word Let's just say, regardless of whether it can be realized or not, I find it very difficult to understand that civil servants do not love money and military generals do not hesitate to die. People's personalities are very complicated and elusive. Those who love money and power, and the warriors who charge ahead, there are always those who run away because of timidity. If this word is interpreted literally, wouldn’t people’s hearts become one-sided, and the world will become a world of one-faced people. If things go on like this, people’s thoughts and thoughts will be the same. To put it bluntly, if everyone wants to commit suicide, wouldn’t the world be over? Therefore, no matter whether it is harsh punishments or soft policies, it will not be possible to fully realize the literal meaning the meaning of."

Deng's father listened carefully, and after pondering for a moment, Fang asked again: "What do you mean, should corrupt officials and people who fear death be allowed to run amok?"

"That's not the case. Why do they want to be greedy? Isn't it because of the asymmetry between their income and their positions? For example, a provincial official is in charge of the province's civil affairs and military power, and he can be called a local emperor. His monthly salary is only more than 1 yuan, and some may reach [-] yuan, but compared to the big province he leads, what is this little money? But what about those who are not strong-willed? Children go to school, travel by themselves, do shopping, where do you not need money? They may refuse gifts and money once or twice, but after more times, who can guarantee that they will still be like them? Is it as clean as before? If we give them a slight increase in wages, pay them according to the reputation of the people in the province and their personal political achievements, and use formal means to restrain them, the chance of corruption will be much smaller."

"Of course, some people love money by nature, and their appetite can never be satisfied. If you give him ten thousand, he wants one hundred thousand, and if you give him one hundred thousand, he wants one million. Severe punishments can be used. However, I privately think that the current law punishes such people too lightly. I remember that last time a member of the Politburo embezzled 100 million yuan in social security funds, but he was not sentenced to death. It’s just locked up, and the food and living conditions in the prison are better than that of ordinary people, so what effect can such punishment have on other corrupt officials?”

Deng's father was silent for a while, and finally sighed: "You are right, but the country also has a national scripture, which is difficult to read. In fact, it is difficult for you to understand the hearts of those in power. Killed, even hacked into pieces, Ling Chi execution is not an exaggeration, but what can be done? Just like the high official you said who was greedy for [-] million social security funds, he really deserves to be killed, even if he is killed [-] times I don't understand the hatred of the common people, but his background is feared by those in power. If that damned corrupt official is killed, it will really turn into a huge political turmoil. Maybe the situation will get worse, and even There will be a mutiny!"

Zhang Feng said: "Why did the mutiny happen? It must be because many officials gathered around the backstage, but as long as the power of the backstage is weakened, then what is there to be afraid of?"

Hearing what Zhang Feng said, Deng's father became interested: "Oh? Comrade, what can you do to weaken him?"

"It's very simple, take away power and control their money. If you want to do this, you need to improve the personal relationship between those in power and other officials."
