Three Kingdoms

   Chapter 377 The Closed Circle

  Fei Qian didn't leave immediately after dismissing the people surrounding Du Yuan's tent, but sat alone in the tent, feeling dazed.

  What caused the gentry to form a gradually closed circle?

   In other words, what caused the Chinese nation to lose the motivation to go out?

   According to a sentence that Fei Qian learned in school: the economic base determines the superstructure, and the superstructure reacts to the economic base.

  Fei Qian thinks about it carefully, in fact, from the Spring and Autumn Period to the Warring States Period, from the Warring States Period to the Qin Dynasty, and from the Qin Dynasty to the Han Dynasty, almost every dynasty had ideas constantly colliding, trying to dominate the entire state power and social economy...

During the Spring and Autumn Period, a hundred schools of thought contended. Many people proposed different ideas of governing the country. There were all kinds of strange things. Schools and other relatively large schools with a complete ideological structure survived, and then the Qin Dynasty rose with the Legalists, but failed to manage the social conflicts at that time with the Legalists, and collapsed. Liu Bang used the Huang Dynasty to establish the Han Dynasty. The old Taoists, recuperating and recuperating. Later, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty used Confucianism to consolidate his rule...

   Fei Qian took a pen and paper, and wrote down his messy thoughts.

  Well, let’s just ignore that messy Wang Mang...

  However, why did Confucianism win out in this chaotic battle at the ideological level in the end, and became the dominant learning in the Han Dynasty? And it became more and more fierce in the subsequent dynasties, dominating the political arena?

  Fei Qian pondered for a long time, and finally wrote down the word "government" on the paper...

During the period of Emperor Wudi of the Han Dynasty, the power of the princes in various feudal states continued to expand, and foreign enemies such as the Huns continued to invade outside. Therefore, there was an urgent need for an ideological tool that could support him in ideological and moral terms to carry out centralized rule. Dong Zhongshu was at a critical moment Presented an improved version of Confucianism, which eliminated internal and external troubles for Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.

  From this aspect, Confucianism has a positive meaning, but why did it grow crooked later?

   And the longer it is, the more crooked it is...

  Fei wrote down the new four characters "fooling the people and suppressing business" under the word "potential rule", then paused for a while, and wrote "lazy"...

  During the Spring and Autumn and Warring States Periods, Confucius advocated education without discrimination, opened up the wisdom of the people, and let the people know what is ritual and what is righteousness. However, in the hands of the successors of Confucianism, while holding Confucius, they are doing things that are completely opposite to Confucius...

A farmer whose ancestors have been working in the same place and knows nothing is obviously better at ruling than a businessman who has traveled all over the world and has extensive knowledge; Wise maesters rule well...

  So fooling the people and suppressing business.

  Because this method has been effective and easy to use, I never thought about changing it, or I didn’t want to change it at all, so I was lazy and lost the ability and courage to develop and innovate…

  As a result, those who want to reform in the later stage need to bear more pressure.

  In order to protect their dominance, the emperor likes more and more stupid people. In order to protect their status, the gentry are holding their knowledge tighter and not leaking out, and are becoming more and more closed...

   Although this closed thought was finally broken by the imperial examination system, it only broke the circle of the gentry, and the closed nature of the whole thought remained unchanged.

  Go to heaven, ha ha.

  The land is vast and abundant, ha ha.

   Barbarians from all directions, ha ha.

  If it is possible, is it when this closed framework is not so strict...

   Fei Qian was thinking about it, when he suddenly heard a rush of footsteps outside the tent, and the soldiers reported that Du Yuan asked to see him.

  Fei Qian folded the piece of paper he was writing on, put it in his bosom, and let Du Yuan in.

   "Wenzheng, are you awake? Have you used latex?"

  Du Yuan bowed to the ground, with a face full of shame, and said: "Yuan is incompetent, and actually labored the Lord... This is Yuan's crime..."

  Fei Qian waved his hand, picked up another piece of paper from the table, handed it to Du Yuan, and said, "Wen Zheng doesn't have to do this, come, sit down, this piece of paper, you should take a look first."

  Du Yuan took it over and took a look. It was a list, which stated the person in charge of various affairs and the time for checking the accounts...

Fei Qian said: "These people's intelligence varies from high to low, but they have all done their related affairs, so it shouldn't be too difficult to get started, so let these people do it first, Wenzheng, you don't have to do it all the time. Just keep an eye on it and check regularly."

"A person only has twelve hours in a day. If you sit here and work from morning to night, you will have twelve hours at most. But if you use these people well, you will have more than twelve hours. gone."

"Don't worry about choosing these people just because I choose them. According to the future situation, if you can't do well once or twice, but you are willing to learn, you can teach; if you can't do well, you don't want to learn or you really can't learn. , change it."

  "You must learn to let go of employing people. If you have any problems, come to me again."

   "My lord's teachings, you should always keep them in your heart." Du Yuan stood up again, and kowtowed, "Don't doubt the person you employ, and don't use the person who doubts you."

   Feiqian smiled, and didn't continue to say anything on the topic of employing people.

  The highest state of employing people is not to use people without suspicion and others to use them. According to the concept of company operation in later generations, you should be suspicious of people when you are employed, and you will use people with doubts. It's just that the B role is ready when it is used, maybe there is a BB role, and the supervisor's C role, and at the same time, the budget for the collapse of the A role is prepared.

  The extent of authority given to A is the extent to which he can accept losses. For example, if he can bear a loss of one million, the authority given to A may be 500,000.

  If something goes wrong, A can be pulled down immediately, and B can be used to push it up...

Of course, the specific operation is not as simple as that. Otherwise, there is no such thing as easy to do and difficult to do. It is just a matter of knowing this point and not knowing this point. This gap will gradually be reflected in the entire team. Then it will affect the future development.

Of course, in the Han Dynasty now, Fei Qian didn’t have many talents to use, so it’s still the same sentence. A leader who only immerses himself in dealing with specific matters is not a good leader. He only focuses on how to find talents and cultivate them. Talented leaders can lead a team well.

   At this point, Fei Qian still has a long, long way to go.

   "Okay, I have one last question for you. Now we still have to solve the problem that we don't go through the Huren leader, but recruit ourselves. What are you going to do?"

Du Yuan almost blurted out subconsciously, saying that he would do it right away, but he saw the paper that Fei Qian gave him with the person in charge of various affairs, thought for a while and said: "If you find someone to take charge of this You must be able to speak Hu... Well, if some Bingzhou veterans who can speak Hu are asked to be in charge of arranging these Hu people, what do you think, my lord?"

"Well, you can try." Fei Qian smiled, stood up, and said as he walked out, "Wenzheng, pay more attention to rest, and remember your attempt and decision today, we should let more people Mastering the skills, rather than trying to have all the skills in your own hands…”

   During the days when Chibi just came back from defeat, Cao Cao was in a trance, always talking to himself.

   Later, Miaocai and Gongming were worried, so they went to visit the lord.

   As a result, outside the account, I heard the Lord say that the blow was too great.

   Miaocai nodded: "Well, it's quite big."

   Gongming snorted: "How do you know?"

   Miaocai smiled and said, "If you are not old, how could King Zhou like it?"
