Chapter 4029: The internal reason
No matter what kind of management it is, there must be loopholes, which is inevitable. Therefore, when the so-called management has loopholes, the main considerations are more about cost and difficulty.
It is obvious that compared to the former, it needs to focus on the large-scale people, the latter, it only needs to focus on the small number of bureaucrats, even if it is supervised, it is easier.
"After saying this, it is true that the scale of bureaucracy is there. If the situation you are talking about is really easier to manage than the people." Liu Bei nodded and admitted this fact, "If it is just like this, it will not be solved. If this problem is encountered like this, it will still be a problem."
"Isn't I solving the situation I'm facing now?" Chen Xi said with a smile. "In fact, in my understanding, the operation of the country must require money. All infrastructure and all projects that are beneficial to people's livelihood require a lot of capital investment."
Liu Bei nodded, and he also knew this. Without a large investment, where can we develop.
"The problem is that we can't create so much money alone." Chen Xi sighed and said, "In fact, the bureaucracy itself does not have the ability to make money. Their existence, at the core, should be to optimize management, but in fact, it is not the case."
Liu Bei frowned, he really didn't understand this.
"In fact, where money comes from is actually very clear. It is taken from the people. This sentence has already explained the essence, that is, no matter how the money is obtained, it is the result of the gathering of values created by the collective labor of the people." Chen Xi's expression was very calm.
"It seems that I didn't charge money, but in fact I collected money, that's what it means." Chen Xi looked at Liu Bei, and Liu Bei thought.
"So, if any political entity wants to continue to operate, it must do its best to avoid a situation. This proportion taken from the people cannot let the people die." Chen Xi said with a little lament.
"In fact, the collapse of the dynasties has already explained this issue, and the narratives of the philosophers also describe this reality. However, the gap between theory and reality is too big. After the other national income is stopped, the tax can only be increased and cannot be reduced." Chen Xi said helplessly.
This is the biggest fatal point in national operations. When the country itself has industries, taxation is only a very important part of it. However, when state-owned industries, because of technology, ceilings, human resources, etc., cannot continue to provide these funds originally used to provide national operations.
Then there are only a few choices left, one is to give up high-speed operation, the other is to nominally operate at high speed, suppress internal borers, and the remaining two are to increase taxes and streamlining the bureaucratic system.
The choice is so simple, but in fact, there is only the second one to choose. If Chen Xi changes, he will also choose the second one. It is impossible to increase taxes. It is better to print money at the end of the year to make up for the deficit than to directly increase taxes. It is impossible to streamline the money. Who is working at the executive level? If the simplification is gone, the problem will be even greater.
As for the first one, it is even more unselectable, so I will not solve it first. After all, internal problems and external solutions are available. I may be able to see the sun when I drag them.
After all, the operation of the country is different from the group of wild animals. Human despair and wild beasts are still fighting. One is the despair of the entire country, and the result of the collapse is no better than the one who fell before. No matter how much technology is reserved or how much technology is left, aren’t it all just collapsed? So it’s also a choice to boil it and eat charcoal-grilled eagle sauce.
So Chen Xi is very rational. It is impossible to increase taxes. Any project that has the opportunity to become tax revenue will be cut down. From the beginning, you will be nailed to death. Don’t think about donating miscellaneous taxes. You can drive the aristocratic family out just to spread the taxes and put the taxes into practice. Don’t catch the bottom and make the wool, so that those people can survive, feel the goodness of the Han Dynasty, and see hope.
As long as it is maintained to this level, the remaining problems are all problems of the bureaucratic system. So if there is a problem, it will be clear who will hit, and it will be clear who will be whipped.
"So, sometimes, you just need to figure out who the opponent is." Chen Xi said with a gentle expression, "and for most people, it is actually difficult to understand from the national level who is the enemy, who is a friendly army, and who is the swaying middleman."
Liu Bei nodded, and his own people were actually quickly divided into his mind.
"So you have to beat them up or beat them up, beat them up and let them understand that they are not irreplaceable, and they will calm down." Chen Xi looked at the East, Jizhou, and now it should be at the craziest time.
The madness of the bureaucrats is sometimes really hard to complain about, whether it is for the people who are willing to sacrifice themselves or for superiors.
Just like the revolution, although there are few at the top, they who betrayed the class, at least they have resources to give money, food, and support. They themselves have a certain influence. At the same time, the bottom, the vastest scale, and the most determined determination, after becoming enlightened, they can fight regardless of their death, which is the vastest foundation.
The middle class actually has nothing, it has no scale, no scale, no resources, even if you have empathy, they are not the so-called general public and cannot effectively connect them. So when you really have to take a ruthless move, it is actually very clear who will hit the target, which is the least impact.
Of course, it is to join forces with the bottom to solve problems for the bottom and work for the group of people in the middle, because it can not only solve problems but also relieve stress.
"Is that true?" Liu Bei nodded after hearing this, "I don't pay much attention to Jizhou. After you answered the previous question, I knew that Jizhou's problem is actually not a problem anymore. As long as I can solve the problem, as for things like punishing the past and preventing the future, I actually rely more on you to deal with it."
"Compared to punishing past mistakes and preventing future, for bureaucrats, it is more important to make them recognize their position. If it is irreplaceable, it can only be seen by the other party's morality. If it is difficult to replace it, the other party's small actions need to turn a blind eye. If it can be replaced at any time, they will work hard to safeguard their own power." Chen Xi said calmly, not saying that it was just to take care of the people's empty words.
There are officials who are for the people, but everyone asks this, that's nonsense. For most people, it's enough for bureaucrats to work hard to solve local people's livelihood problems purely for being officials and high-ranking officials.
Even for the bureaucratic system, it is a great success to be able to restrain all bureaucrats to advance and achieve high-ranking officials in this process. The problem is that, in fact, this is actually not in line with reality.
"It proves that even if they are connected, they are just objects that can be replaced at any time." Chen Xi was extremely calm. "In this way, they will be much calmer, and of course there will definitely be some guys who taste the taste of power and are completely desperate to jump over the wall."
"The dog is anxious to jump over the wall?" Liu Bei narrowed his eyes, and the cold light was not covered at all.
"There is no need to use this expression, because this kind of thing is inevitable." Chen Xi shook his head and said, "At this point, any country or nation is actually meaningless to these people. Their goals are no longer these, and the others are abandonable objects. But the good thing is that there is no object around us that can be connected to them, and in a hurry, they cannot find them."
This era is not the era of rapid information transmission in later generations. Even if these people have such ideas, it is difficult to convert the information they have at hand into resources that can escape.
So Chen Xi was not worried that these eager bureaucrats would choose to sell the country or something. In reality, even if they wanted to sell the country, they would not have the target to sell it. The actual conditions made it impossible for them to come into contact with foreign circles.
"What if they attack the people?" Liu Bei frowned and said.
Liu Bei was not worried about those people who treasoned the country because they had no basis for implementation, but if they were to persuade the people, Liu Bei would have a headache, and compared with the former, the latter was less difficult to implement.
"It is very likely, but the people will not work hard, eat enough and dress well. All this is not given by local bureaucrats. Why should they work hard for local bureaucrats?" Chen Xi said with a plain expression, "Every large-scale reform order is from public documents under Chang'an."
"As for forced orders, there is basically no possibility. The people who have gathered villages and villages these days are not easy to deal with. The disadvantage of being a soldier in the whole country is that they are prone to private fights. The advantage is that the people are martial and dare to fight. It is difficult for local bureaucrats to force them." Chen Xi said quietly.
The saying of hammering the dog's head is not to be heard, but it can be done, and it is possible to incite something. The possibility of forced orders is very small. However, if it is incited, there will be no result in facing some people, such as Liu Bei.
"In other words, in the end, I have to go to Jizhou?" Liu Bei pointed at himself and said in surprise. This was really an accident. He originally thought he didn't need to go.
"Generally speaking, you don't have to go. It mainly depends on the madness of the bureaucrats. The more crazy the bureaucrats, the greater the possibility of you cleaning up the mess in the past." Chen Xi said calmly, "It is logically possible to incite local people to do this, but whether it can succeed is also a two-point saying."
