"The great man is this tree. If the branches and leaves are lush, their roots are deep within the people, but if it is..." Guo Jia lit, "This end is broken... should I keep it, or not?"

I lost my father at a young age, is it pitiful? Is it pitiful?

But for those people who are as hard to speak like sand, gravel and soil, have they lost their parents and wives in this process because of the corruption and injustice of these minor officials? So are these people pitiful? Who will be pitiful?

"People..." Chen Zhong fell silent.

Then Guo Jia also fell silent.

Guo Jia was holding a bowl of wine.

The wine rippled slightly, and his thoughts were also floating slightly.

The reason why Guo Jia is still patient with Chen Zhong is not that he has any feelings for Chen Zhong, but because Chen Zhong is a "poor child" who was specially promoted by Cao Cao some time ago. As someone who understands and knows some of Cao Cao's plans, Guo Jia feels it is necessary to communicate with Chen Zhong.

Of course, if communication is ineffective, then what should be done.

In comparison, the gentry in Shandong has nothing to do with ordinary people as a whole. The gentry is a gentry, the people are the people, and the great scholars are not Bai Ding, and Yangchun Bai Xue no longer has any connection with the people of Xialiba.

This is slightly different from Guanzhong.

Judging from the period in Guanzhong during Guo Jia's previous period in Guanzhong, perhaps because Guanzhong was somewhat affected by the Hu people's mixed residence, and because he was threatened by the Western Qiang for many years, the Guanzhong geniuses would relatively pay more attention to their local people. Of course, this is just in comparison.

After all, when the Hu people came to rob, these gentry members needed the people to resist foreign enemies together. Simply put, they knew that they needed the people to work hard, and of course they had to be slightly better. However, there have been no foreign enemies in Shandong for too long. Treating the people is just like treating pig dogs. Even if Cao Cao ordered these people to treat the people well, be honest and dedicated, pay attention to this and that, many gentry members in Shandong still do not take these instructions seriously.

In the eyes of many Shandong children, those people are all unfair people, they are all unruly people, and they always want to cause trouble from time to time, and they all need to be suppressed!

As long as it is not a large-scale death, hundreds or thousands of deaths are not a big deal. Even if tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands are really dead, as long as there is a "right" reason, it is not unacceptable. Those who are officials continue to be officials, and those who are officials continue to be officials, fathers pass on their sons, and sons pass on their grandsons. They have been officials for generations. Just like the Yellow Turban Rebellion that year, more than 100,000 "Yellow Turban Thieves" were killed, the children of the gentry applauded Huangfu Song and sang... Uh, what kind of gratitude song... made Huangfu Xi live again...

Now Cao Cao only killed a part of it, and did not even cover the attack surface to the families of these corrupt officials like the General of the Cavalry in Guanzhong. These children of Shandong gentry could not stand it. They screamed and cried bitterly, saying that Cao Cao was cruel and inhumane and inhumane.

In fact, Guo Jia sometimes feels that perhaps the means in Guanzhong can really shock the corrupt officials, and that the whole family will be harmed. Not to mention the family search, the wife will become common people and no longer be appointed to an official within three generations...

『……… Thank you for your guidance from the military advisor…” Chen Zhong finally gave up and solemnly thanked Guo Jia.

Guo Jia nodded and raised the wine bowl. Whether Chen Zhong really understood or pretended to be clear, if Cao Cao had not needed poor families to support the structural system of those officials who had been eliminated, Guo Jia would not have bothered with Chen Zhong.

"Come on, drink! To the man!"

"Respect the Prime Minister!"
