Chapter 294 Republic (4)

The boat stopped at Haizhou Port, and Hao Kang and Mu stood side by side next to the side of the boat. Looking at the serious expression of Mu, Hao Kang knew that Mu was very nervous. Hao Kang was also nervous, but it was not because of fear. He had been through life and death better, so he had long stopped fearing about life and death. What he was worried about now was whether Mu would not be able to bear the pressure.

"Let's get off the boat." Student Mu said.

Hao Kang carried the two people's luggage and walked in front. There was already someone waiting for the two at the port. When he saw Mu following Hao Kang, Mu's parents rushed to the front of them first. Mu's mother looked angry at the tall and beautiful Hao Kang in pure Jiangnan dialect mixed with the taste of school Mandarin: "Uncle, aunt, hello. I am Hao Kang." Mu's mother suddenly couldn't get angry.

Seeing that his wife was actually confused by this bastard who was quite fond of people, he couldn't help but feel good about her. His father, who also couldn't help but feel good about her, stepped forward and pushed Hao Kang away, took Mu's hand and shouted: "You know you're messing around when you go out. I will never let you go abroad again!"

Next to them were people from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. They had already prepared the carriages. At this time, they stepped forward and let Hao Kang and Mu's family get into two carriages. Neither the two young men nor women resisted, but looked at each other before getting on the carriage and exchanged glances. When everyone got on the car, the two carriages started and headed straight to the train station.

In a hurry, these people took the road-blocking train to their destination Kaifeng. The Japanese locals were very good at doing business and sent more than 100,000 Japanese workers. Each person dug three cubic meters of soil every day. In August, the railway was paved from Haizhou (Lianyungang) to Kaifeng. The importance of the railway itself is indescribable. Kaifeng does not have to walk the canal for a few days to go to the seaside, and you can arrive in more than a day by taking the train. Zhao Qian was more than happy and encouraged. The Song Dynasty's intervention in Japan finally arrived at the destination after several years of development. With a solid point of fit, the Song Dynasty and the Japanese were able to truly cooperate in utilizing the Japanese labor force.

My father's idea of ​​Japan was very clear decades ago, and it still took a long time to work step by step. Zhao Qian, who was involved in the last few years, saw the violent changes in the last few years, and the world was regular, which was beyond doubt. However, the regular operation was not according to people's imagination. There is no doubt about this. Sun Tzu said that those who are good at using military forces practice Taoism and protect the law, so they can be a political policy of victory or defeat.

Practicing Taoism and protecting the Dharma is so wonderful. Zhao Qian, who participated in it, was really moved by thinking about the hardships in the past years. With his father, Zhao Qian doesn’t have to worry about the general direction at all, and his father’s general direction never changes. The word “protecting the Dharma” requires firmness in execution. No matter how the other party changes, Zhao Qian cannot let the change go to another direction. The direction is correct, the execution is firm, and he is not eager for quick success and instant benefits, but only seek results. In the end, this thing can be successful.

When the conditions of war are determined, the commander's requirements are firm. After the matter is successful, looking back at the origin and feels that every step is reasonable. Only those who have walked that path personally understand how much confusion, anxiety, dissatisfaction, and even want to start over every step.

Can I be as firm as my father? Zhao Qian wanted to summarize this matter, but he had to get involved in other people's love and marriage. This made Zhao Qian a little annoyed. Seeing that he was in love, Zhao Qian felt not very happy. Anyway, his love failed. Moreover, he didn't know who exposed this matter, so the impact caused was not good. There was no way, so Zhao Qian ran to his father for help.

"This is an individual case, and an exception. Let's solve it according to human favors." Zhao Jiaren replied lightly. He didn't expect that the matter would develop to the present day, and the emperor himself had the highest authority to participate in the decision-making, and Zhao Jiaren didn't want to exaggerate the matter himself.

"Will the special case be regarded as an example in the future?"

"That depends on how you view the exception." Zhao Jiaren smiled. At the age of almost 60, Zhao Jiaren felt that he could see the world more comprehensively and enjoy the fun of the elderly relying on their seniority from the perspective of putting down many things.

"Please tell me about it." Zhao Qian was very interested in this.

"First, whether there are minors here, and minors are illegal. Second, whether there are illegal acts of coercion. Third, whether there is intentional deception between the two, hiding things that can affect the outcome of the marriage. Fourth, whether foreigners are barbaric. His country, his own education, whether he can speak Chinese, whether he can understand and understand many ancient Chinese books. Fifth, whether their understanding of marriage is in line with Chinese tradition. Sixth, whether people in the Song Dynasty understand the personal rights and rights deprived of this marriage."

Zhao Qian had already taken out his small notebook and started recording. After his father finished speaking, he asked clearly what he had not had time to record. After finishing the notes, he read them again. Zhao Qian praised: "It's amazing. Officials, this is a very special case that is much stricter than the marriage of his own people in Dasong."

"Extraordinary cases are just like this. They must be in line with the truth and in line with human nature. If the exception is a mercy that makes illegal ones legal, then don't make exceptions."

Zhao Qian nodded repeatedly, then said, "Officials, as far as I know, these are not a problem for those two people."

"Who are they? They are both college students of the Song Dynasty. In the mainstream society, they are already knowledgeable, experienced and capable. If they don't mention nationality, they are united and probably have a love affair. I regard them as an exception. The ordinary situation is that there are women from the Song Dynasty being abducted on the border, and the newspapers will not discuss whether to marry, but ask when the Song army will attack the barbarians."

"Officials, isn't there any consideration for supporting this matter?"

"Zhao Qian, please remember clearly that no one is stupid. Why do you want to cooperate? Because we have room for cooperation in the interests we face in front of us. Cooperation is not that others have become our slaves and are completely controlled by us from now on. If you think so, it is not that others are incompetent, but that we are stupid. Cooperation is cooperation, and business is business. It is reasonable, beneficial and conservative."

Zhao Qian agreed with these views very much. He plucked up the courage for himself and asked loudly: "Officials, I participated in the Japanese affairs. I just felt that the government had a look at it countless times higher than ours. When I was operating this matter, I always felt that I had reached the end and it should be over. The government would not. The government still felt that this matter should continue to move forward, and this matter should continue to move forward. Now that this matter is over, I can see that this matter is over. Now I just need to implement the things I have set up before. As a result of my reflection, everything the government has done in the past has seen in the past thirty or forty years has been seen by the government. It is just based on the power of the Song Dynasty at that time. So the government made every step. If I asked me to do it, it would go straight to the end. No matter how good the thinking and understanding would fail. I want to know the government's understanding of the development of the world, and pointed out this path, I have no doubts anymore. The rest is to do it."

Zhao Jiaren felt that he should be happy, but he couldn't be happy at all. Zhao Jiaren used to think that why the ancients were not as good as people today. From a biological point of view, there has been no essential changes in the human brain for thousands of years. I am afraid that even the subtle changes are limited, and it is not even possible to shorten the time to seven hundred years. The brains of the people of the Song Dynasty are no different from those of the New Chinese people in the 21st century. The only difference is "common sense".

History has changed, Wen Tianxiang has changed, but it is not big enough. Among the newcomers Zhao Jiaren has strongly cultivated, there are finally people who dare to ask the core questions on Zhao Jiaren's face. This makes Zhao Jiaren sure that he is not wrong. It is just that this question involves Zhao Jiaren's own roots, and everything he comes from what he has learned and seen.

If you want to save the Song Dynasty, you have to destroy the Lin'an court; if you want to save China, you have to destroy the private ownership of the land; if you want to promote social progress, you have to eliminate the feudal sentiment party. This is not the result of Zhao Jiaren's unremitting efforts, but the historical facts he learned through learning. Even so, Zhao Jiaren was still looking forward to the front and back when he was reincarnated for the first time. The reality of the murder of the whole family made Zhao Jiaren understand that looking at the cold and correct conclusion is kindness in itself. If you want to save China, you must sacrifice some people. This sacrifice is insignificant compared to the cost of the destruction of China.

Zhao Jiaren can understand these things, but Zhao Jiaren doesn't know how to tell his son. There is no essential difference in intelligence between the two people, and they are not much different in personal efforts. The reason for the gap between the two people is "common sense".

Looking at the father's expression, Zhao Qian felt a little worried. He loved his parents, and the more he knew about the world, the more he felt grateful. In this era, there were too many parents regarding their children as their own personal belongings. Their parents never regarded them like this. Children are the products of their lives, so they tried their best to cultivate their children into people who could deal with the world by themselves. Even if Zhao Qian is a child of the Tian family, it is the case.

What Zhao Qian is doing now is to ask his father for the foundation of his life. Getting this treasure means getting everything from his father. Not to mention an emperor, even the father of an ordinary family may not be able to accept it. This means that the son has obtained all the ideas of his father from then on, and this is what the father can lead the family.

When I was worried, I heard my father say, "This will be a very hard study."

"I will do my best." Zhao Qianxi said.

"This will also be very cruel. It requires you to change your common sense. If you want to truly turn these common sense into your things, you have to do more hard work. You will always be shallow in your knowledge and you must practice it."

"I will do my best!" Zhao Qian could understand his father's concern.

"In addition, when you have the strength, you will feel your own evil. I think back now that I have killed many people over the years, my personal malice and fear. Although I am also trying my best to resolve the negative impact these memories have brought to me, I can't do it."

Zhao Qian was stunned. He also felt this way. Many times, behind the things that had to be explained with high-sounding reasons were very dark and negative motives. The cruel impulse arising from anger and fear made Zhao Qian feel regretful. Unexpectedly, a powerful person like his father would be like this.

"More importantly, if you want to understand this, you need to build a faith that serves the people wholeheartedly. Without such ultimate faith as support, your own conscience will collapse. You will likely become a powerful person, so you have to prove that what you do is right by satisfying your desires."

"Officials, what is the ultimate belief?" Zhao Qian had heard this word, but couldn't understand it.

"Ultimate faith means that I cannot prove it right now and is inevitable, but I firmly believe that he is right and improve this ultimate faith in the process of constantly moving forward. It is precisely because I can't do it that I have to have faith. It is precisely because it is the ultimate that I pursue it without hesitation."

"I... don't understand." Zhao Qian replied. When he said that, Zhao Qian felt that saying this might not be correct. Dad is Zhao Qian's ultimate belief. Because what Dad did was something that Zhao Qian believed that he could not do no matter what, Zhao Qian devoted all his strength to follow his father, hoping to see the scenery he saw. The happiness obtained by this pursuit was beyond the happiness that Zhao Qian obtained from other places. Dad said that it was caused by the human brain peptide reward mechanism, but Zhao Qian was willing to believe that it was similar to the joy brought by the shock of the soul. The joy was not only for a moment, the more he got, the more confident, and fearless.

"That's because you have seen too little. But... forget it, I will teach you that the world in my eyes is completely the world in my personal eyes. You prepare before listening, that is my personal opinion and my personal basis. Don't imitate this, because this is a pure personal opinion. This is just my foothold in the coordinate system, not the entire coordinate system. When you can't feel where you are now, you can try to compare with me to find your own position. Even if you have learned everything about me, you are still you. Whether you want it or not, you will only have your own coordinate points. You are you, and I am me."

Zhao Qian felt that this passage was so ordinary. Decent teachers would tell the students all kinds of textbooks. If they didn’t say it, they could hear the calluses. Anyway, Zhao Qian was already familiar with it. At this time, he had a flash of inspiration and replied: "Who am I, where I came from, where I want to go."

"Yeah." Zhao Jiaren nodded, very happy. Logic is only one of the benefits of this. It will not make people smarter, nor will it give people supernatural abilities. Logic is just a very useful tool. Its function is to make people who have received logic training not get too far away from the basic principles when they don't understand at all. Even if the son in front of him was reciting the textbook, he said the correct direction the textbook told. Satisfied, Zhao Jiaren continued, "I have to prepare lessons, you can wait first. You can deal with Hao Kang's affairs."

"Does the officials want to include Mongolia in the economic frontier of the Song Dynasty?" Zhao Qian also put down his heavy ideological analysis and took on easier specific work.

"Water and Eastern Rome are also civilized countries. The characteristic of civilized countries is that they have systems. Just like China, the core system started from Zulong to the present. Eastern Rome was invaded and its country was temporarily destroyed, so it seemed that the system was chaotic. As for Japan, it has been very stable until now. When we talk about systems, we can evaluate them with advanced and later years. Because the system itself has such qualitative values ​​and standards. Mongolia's culture cannot support a system, and there is no way to communicate with Mongolia except for force. They have traditions and styles, but there is no system. Simply put, when we finally contact the Japanese territory from the institutional level, the system of Japan providing labor to the Song Dynasty was established. What next thing we have to do is discuss and maintain this system. What system can we establish between us and the Mongolians?"

Zhao Qian nodded repeatedly, feeling that a fog in front of him was cleared by real experience and the concept proposed by his father. Economic control of Japan and Eastern Rome was based on the other party's civilized bottom line, and everyone could interact civilizedly. The Song Dynasty gained benefits through trade, and Japan and Eastern Rome also gained benefits through trade. As long as any agreement with Mongolia generates benefits, Mongolia will want to monopolize this benefit through force. Therefore, the basis of institutional exchanges with Mongolia is to kill Mongolia. If it cannot be defeated, any system is a nonsense, and it is just a meat throwing away the tiger and holding fire to put out the fire.

The more I thought about this, I felt that this sentence expressed the facts and truth. Zhao Qian was more excited about the lesson his father was going to teach. At such a height, what could I not see clearly?

Zhao Jiaren was also thinking about similar things. The Russian tradition that Mongolia and even embezzled Mongolia was heard when Zhao Jiaren was drinking and chatting with a buddy in the 21st century. At that time, everyone was talking about the thunderstorm plan between Barbarossa and the Soviet Union. After the signing of the Soviet-German peace agreement, Germany turned to deal with Western Europe. The Iron Man formulated the thunderstorm plan. The basis of this plan was that Germany and Western Europe were in a protracted war, which greatly consumed their strength. When both sides were exhausted, millions of Soviet Red Army set out from occupied Poland to kill Germany from behind and defeated Western Europe.

It is normal for the Otaku of the Keyboard Politburo to go off topic while talking. The buddy told me that Russia has no system and that their tradition is intimidation. From a war perspective, after Germany killed France and defeated Western Europe in a month, the Soviet Union had to consider responding with a defensive attitude. However, the Russian tradition made the Iron Man uncle invest heavily in the Polish region divided by the Soviet Union to put on an offensive posture, intending to scare the beard by arranging heavy troops.

Unexpectedly, Xiaomouzi saw through the iron man's trick at a glance and launched an attack without hesitation. The thunderstorm faced Barbarossa, and Xiaomouzi defeated the Soviet army to pieces.

Zhao Jiaren felt enlightened when he heard this. He had not considered the problem like this before, but had read many other books. In the books, Zhao Jiaren had read two views and historical materials. First, Russia actually inherited Mongolian culture. Second, many German soldiers actually did not want to fight this war before launching the Barbarossa plan. At that time, although Germany was not full of favorable feelings for the Soviet Union, at least he felt that he had killed the traditional Western European enemies, and Germany should have been restored, and everyone went home to enjoy the benefits of the war. At least was the Soviet Union an ally of Germany at that time.

As a result, after the Battle of Barbarossa, the views of German soldiers on the front line changed. In an interview with the German soldiers in World War II that Zhao Jiaren saw, the German soldier who was asked by the Chinese biographer, firmly stated, "The distribution of the Soviet army is not defensive, but offensive. I am a soldier. After seeing so many Soviet military arrangements, I am sure that the Soviet Union is going to launch an attack on us. I am a soldier, I understand."

These materials combined with the arguments put forward by this buddy made Zhao Jiaren suddenly enlightened. The materials that had puzzled him in the past instantly became content that made him understand the truth. These cognitive "common sense" now even became the basis for analysis of the Mongolian Empire.

Thinking of what he wanted to tell his son, Zhao Jiaren felt more pressured. Is the basis of so much common sense based on countless history, or is it much more advanced than the current situation of the Song Dynasty. The creation of Zhao Jiaren's own strength is these history and the learning and understanding of history. Is his son and the Song Dynasty capable of accepting these concepts?

Thinking of this, Zhao Jiaren remembered a passage I had read before. Funerals, countless funerals, noble, humble, full of sorrow, unknown... All these funerals have just ended, and the bells of mourning remained in the air with shock, and people have already started dancing.

Not only dancing, but also working, studying, falling in love, getting married, holding celebrations, and having fun... This is the people who are fought for, used, sacrificed, and protected. They are like soil, no matter how trampled, they will not be defiled, and no matter how much blood is penetrated, they can bloom flowers. Looking at them, you will feel that everything is worth it, no matter how turbulent and disputes, how many lives of geniuses are sent in vain, and the blood of heroes are worth it. Everyone will die, and only they will live forever.

That person was once worried about how China should get rid of the vicious circle of history, but after he chose to study and carefully read the twenty-four histories, the person said that he had found a way to get rid of this vicious circle, which was people's democracy.

Zhao Jiaren was a little moved when he read this history because he believed that that person was a member of the people. But that was all about his cognition at that time. Now Zhao Jiaren found that at least for himself, if he could not base his ultimate concept on the basis of the person's "people are the masters of the country" and "serving the people wholeheartedly" that he vigorously promoted to the people in such a fierce social movement, Zhao Jiaren would not be able to find a way to bear such a powerful force backlash.

The strong will be afraid, and the strong will be uneasy. If you cannot serve the people to gain a foothold, you can only swallow the people to gain peace of mind. Both barbarism and civilization can produce strong people, and this is the difference between barbarism and civilization.
