Chapter 2319 Meat and vegetarian food, labor and hard work
Chang'an.
Not long after Fei Qian's exam ended, he got the final list after two rounds of corrections, and also saw the strategies of these people for reference.
In a certain respect, policy theory is a bit like the application theory of the ape test in later generations.
A monkey who cannot write good arguments is not a good monkey.
Some people in later generations said that the Civil Service Examination was based on the Western civil service system, but in fact, the Western Civil Service System was based on the ancient Chinese imperial examination system. Therefore, it is not easy to distinguish the origin of the current Civil Service Examination.
But one thing that is very interesting is that these two brothers, policy theory and application theory, actually have some similarities.
The policies and theories of the Han Dynasty, or these ancient policies and theories, have basically the same purpose as the application and examination of later generations. They are both a method of selecting and recruiting talents for the actual needs of the country, and they all have the "merit" effect of a selective examination.
The purpose of "eliminating the inferior" relies on words, or propositional compositions, which must be relevant to the current situation and expound on some views on national political affairs and suggestions for handling them.
To put it simply, it is "the urgent matter of the world".
Then the knowledge covered should be very broad, not just political theory, but the more it develops, the wider the coverage. In later generations, the scope of coverage may also include but is not limited to law, economy, culture, education, and even environmental protection and health.

"Policy theory" as a method of selection examination is a product of the early Western Han Dynasty.
Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty issued an order to convene the princes and ministers to recommend the candidates first, and asked the recommended candidates to "write their opinions in the article", and then sealed them, which was the first of "anonymity", and then the emperor personally opened them and examined them personally.
Whether their opinions are appropriate and thorough, and if they have the talent to assist the government, they can be hired.
Since there was no paper at that time, the opinions of the recommended candidates were written on bamboo slips, and those sent to the emperor for examination were all made of a large roll of bamboo slips, so this selection method was also called "Jian Ce".
Later, there were "Countermeasures" and "Shooting Strategies", that is, face-to-face answers and written test responses, so there was another name called "Ceke Questions".
At first, the policies were very transactional. Later, because the emperor himself was not sensible and had no level, he could not ask any questions. As an assistant, the ministers did not dare to ask some questions that were too current. After all, if they were raised, what would happen?
Doesn't being answered by that person mean that you are not good enough and need to be replaced by someone else?
How can we survive? Therefore, in the later stages of policy discussions, especially when the emperor was incompetent, they often became mere formalities. They even cut out a sentence or even a few words from the Four Books and Five Classics as the title. Such policy discussions can
You can naturally imagine what kind of talents you will get.
Of course, during the Han Dynasty, or during the entire Chinese Dynasty, the most classic policy theory was Dong Zhongshu's "The Virtuous Countermeasures", which influenced the Han Dynasty for three to four hundred years, and even continued to influence history for thousands of years...
"Meat-eaters are despicable, and it is not because they are not far-fetched that they can't plan far. It is because they despise their plans that they will fall."
Pang Tong's voice was ups and downs, and he was shaking his head while holding a policy paper.
"When you fall, your virtues will be lost, and this is the way to destruction. Or can you say: Those who eat meat despise them, and they will all fall? It is said: If you don't fall, those who fall will be lost. Because of the fall of the country, you can't live alone in peace. Therefore, there is a theory,
Meat-eaters cannot make plans, as they will do harm to their fall."
Pang Tong read a paragraph, then looked at Fei Qian and said, "How does this begin?"
Fei Qian laughed and said, "Keep going!"
Pang Tong took a sip of tea, and then continued: "Everyone in the country works, and those who work get their food. Those who work with plows, and those who work hard with salary. However, those who work hard will get a hundred times more than their hard work. Those who work hard will get a hundred times the salary.
What he desires may be a meal or a ladle of drink. What he desires may be a city or a city, which is more than a hundred times greater. Therefore, one can divide the labor and effort into meat.
I guess it’s not reasonable.”
"Man's great desires and the great troubles of the country are not due to hard work, but are obtained by not working hard. I think of our ancient ancestors, who were exposed to frost and dew, chopped thorns, tasted hundreds of grasses, and fought with yellow sand to gain a small place and a piece of land. However,
Today's descendants don't cherish them very much, but throw them away when they move. They sit and eat in vain. They don't seek to learn much, but only pursue all their desires. However, the money in the family is limited, people are greedy, and carnivores are despicable. If this is the case, the more desires become more and more, they will fall.
The deeper it is. Therefore, meat-eaters do not plan far, but fall into lust, which is not the harm of meat-eating."
"If one person falls, the family will decline. If one family falls, the family will be in ruins. If one clan falls, the county will be in ruins, and the harm will be serious. If some carnivores fall, the rest will also die. The remaining people will not fall, and they will eventually be moved to destruction. Why?
Why? Therefore, the achievements of the five hegemons in the Spring and Autumn Period could not be continued. The country of Hufu, riding and shooting perished due to laziness. If the meat-eater is diligent and agile at first, he will be the king. If the meat-eater is confused and falls, he will be in danger. Begin with a far-sighted strategy.
, to be able to defend the land, Cao GUI may not not eat meat, and Lu Zhuang may not all eat grain.”
"Whoops! However, those who have fallen down do not think it is an exaggeration, and those who are in danger do not think it is dangerous. They only see the small space at the bottom of the well, trapped in the soil in front of their own door. The spirit of youth and advancement is clear in talking, and the promise of diligence is lying drunk on the bed.
Right and wrong, knowingly committing mistakes and covering up mistakes, day after day, year after year! Sad man! The sun is cutting and the moon is cutting, and you are falling and dying!"
"Meat-eaters are despicable and cannot make far-sighted plans. There may be a reason for this, but it is not the fault of meat-eating, it is just greed that leads to their downfall. People in the world know the reason, but they do the opposite, use sharp axes on others, and steal.
When it comes to oneself, it’s going down again.”
Pang Tong finished reading, stopped, and then smacked his lips twice, as if he still had some unfinished thoughts.
Fei Qian touched his beard and looked around, "What do you think?"
Xun You nodded slowly and sighed, "Very good."
The rest of the people also nodded in praise.
Fei Qian asked again who made it, and immediately heard a relatively familiar name, Tian Yu and Tian Guorang. He was slightly stunned for a moment, and then took a look at the list with his place of origin marked, and found that he matched the number.
"That's it, take it!"
Fei Qian made the final decision, and immediately ordered people to copy and post the articles of the top three, including Tian Yu, and then ordered all officials to write a policy paper with the theme "Meat eaters are despicable"...
In fact, these are all leftovers from later generations. I have never seen a meeting held by the head office, which is a meeting organized by a branch company, a study organized by a branch company, and then each employee writes his or her impressions.
However, it is still relatively rare for big men to do this, and for a while, they were a little confused and uncomfortable. Moreover, because of this incident, Mi Heng's situation suddenly became a little difficult.
Because the phrase "meat eaters are despicable" was not said by Mi Heng at first, but by Cao GUI. However, these officials could not go to Cao GUI to settle accounts, nor could they disobey General Hussar's order, so naturally there would be more
The anger caused by the burden transferred to Mi Heng, completely forgetting how happy they were when they heard Mi Heng ridiculing Pang Tong.
Just like feeling good is temporary, prostatitis is permanent.
When you are happy, you can naturally do anything to Ni Heng. Dear Xiao Tiantian, you can say anything. But now that you are happy, you have to take responsibility for your actions...
Grandma, look away, this kid... uh, no, I didn't say that!
Spicy Gobi.
As a result, Mi Heng's treatment suddenly went from being admired by thousands of people at the beginning to being disliked by everyone now. It's like an internet celebrity removing makeup and turning off the magic tool, and everyone suddenly disappeared.
The people who originally lined up to invite Mi Heng disappeared in the blink of an eye. Mi Heng suddenly felt as if he had been reported by the people in Chaoyang District as soon as he woke up. Not only were they all removed from the shelves, but the crowd was empty, and even faint
There are situations that are despised by thousands of people.
this……
Has this changed?
Many times, when you can stay out of a thing, it will naturally become calm and calm. Once you get deeply involved in it, you will suddenly change your original appearance of a master and start jumping around.
The same is true for Mi Heng. In fact, he thought he was staying out of the matter, but in fact he could not escape from the vortex at all.
"Where is your Zhengping?"
A young official asked, standing in front of the post house.
The steward of the post house quickly directed him to Mi Heng.
"Are you Zhengping?" The official glanced at Mi Heng and confirmed his identity. He didn't say anything polite to Mi Heng. He waved back and asked the attendant to hold up a lacquer plate. "The hussar has an order.
You Heng, You Zhengping are the envoys of Guanzhong Guanfeng, this is your order!"
The attendant placed the lacquer plate next to Mi Heng.
Mi Heng glanced at the lacquer plate coldly, "I'm sorry, but I obey!"
"If you don't want to obey your order, please go to the official residence and shirk it yourself! I am just the person who delivers the order and I have no responsibility for this matter. Farewell!" After saying that, the young official turned around and left.
Mi Heng was startled for a moment, but then he couldn't catch up. He looked at the official robes and seals placed on the ground, his expression changed, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
The official quickly returned to the Husband's office and returned to Fei Qian.
Fei Qian nodded, indicating that he understood...
"My lord," Pang Tong smiled at the side, "You, Zhengping, are probably still ungrateful..."
Fei Qian laughed, waved his hand and said, "It doesn't matter, let him do it."
Fei Qian just sent out a signal. He really didn't care what Mi Heng was thinking or not thinking.
Regarding Mi Heng, Fei Qian feels a bit like an angry fighter, or a bit like a hippie?
In a unique state, he criticizes the entire world in an angry tone, but does not criticize himself.
Fei Qian does not have a deep understanding of the concept of hippies, but this does not prevent him from understanding and grasping the mentality of people like Mi Heng.
For most of the gentry children, the Eastern Han Dynasty was full of disturbances and emperors changed. In fact, these gentry children did not receive much impact. Especially for the gentry children in the Central Plains of the Han Dynasty, even if they heard about some border troubles,
It's just a temporary emotion. These gentry children still have something to eat and drink, and they even make money from war. Coupled with the large-scale concentration of land, the lives of these gentry children are undoubtedly prosperous and they have nothing to worry about.
Food and clothing are adequate.
There are carriages and horses for travel, and fish and meat for meals. Children of the gentry who are born in families with abundant material conditions do not know whether hunger is a problem, nor do they know how hard it is for the ancestors of the Han family, nor do they know the cruelty of war. At least they were born in Mi Heng.
In his later teenage years, Mi Heng was carefree and rarely knew what pain and suffering were, so those people represented by Mi Heng chanted slogans...
"Don't be content with the present, want poetry and the distance!"
"Don't let Du Wu stain your eyes!"
And so on, he expressed his deep hatred for some power-money transactions in the Eastern Han Dynasty. On the one hand, he enjoyed various dividends and benefits brought by the descendants of the gentry, and on the other hand, he showed that he was noble, pure and unique.
Subsequently, with the bloody casualties caused by the Yellow Turban Rebellion, the gentry children in various counties and counties were captured by the rioting people and captured the manor and Wubao. When the gentry children realized that the class dignity they had maintained for decades and hundreds of years was destroyed by a group of
The mud-legged man dragged the manure to the ground with a dung fork. When the warehouses of the gentry children were smashed open, the men were killed, and the women were raped, only then did these originally pampered gentry children truly realize the cruelty of reality.
The big bosses in the court were shuffling their cards crazily by taking advantage of the social turmoil, and interests and power were constantly changing and trading in light and darkness. But people like Mi Heng didn't understand politics, and the cruel reality hit them hard.
If you can't change the status quo, you will play with yourself and engage in criticism and performance art.
Mi Heng was not the first, nor was he the last. After the Eastern Jin Dynasty, it became even more obvious among the gentry children. They took drugs, were naked, decadent, immersed in endless pleasure and illusion, and lost all pursuits...
This kind of collapse is spiritual, so when a group of young boys in later generations pursue the Western hippie culture, to be honest, you don’t need to look at the West for this hippie thing. Our ancients have played it thousands of years ago, and it was them.
Play with the rest.
Some so-called hippie activities and performance art in later generations, such as lying on the ground listening to the sounds of soil plants and feeling their breath, the naked plant festival, not naked plants, but naked animals, naked watering flowers, gardening,
Running naked on the streets, calling on humans to let go of their restraints, return to nature, embrace themselves, etc...
And this kind of thing was done by Liu Ling, one of the Seven Sages of the Bamboo Forest. When a friend came to visit Liu Ling and saw Liu Ling naked, Liu Ling said plausibly, "I use the heaven and the earth as a building, and the rooms as robes.
Why come into my clothes?"
Therefore, Mi Heng's so-called stripping off his clothes and scolding Cao Cao may be new to people today, but to Fei Qian, it is nothing at all.
The reason why Fei Qian gave Mi Heng the position of a watcher is to let Mi Heng see some actual things by himself and not be immersed in his own fantasy. After all, people like Mi Heng are actually among the nobles.
There are some more or less, and they are also representative to a certain extent.
Therefore, no matter what Mi Heng thinks, Fei Qian will not directly confront Mi Heng at the moment. After all, anyone who has some experience in arguing with later keyboard warriors or gangsters will know that if they want to compete with keyboard warriors or gangsters,
It's just a matter of words. It's an almost impossible task. It's harder than landing on the moon alone.
So Fei Qian immediately used the title "Meat Eaters Despicable" to pull all the officials away from Mi Heng. On the one hand, it allowed Mi Heng to really see his surroundings clearly, instead of just seeing the people surrounding him.
, on the other hand, Fei Qian also needs the current Guanzhong officials to focus on harvesting and storing grain.
For farming people, the harvesting and storage of grain is undoubtedly very important. Moreover, even if the grain is stored well, it is prone to mold and deterioration. If it is three years old, it is not very edible, and if it is five years old, it can basically only be eaten.
Since livestock is being raised, how to store more grain and how to convert some old grain have become issues that Fei Qian must consider.
Grain storage is basically difficult to improve in terms of technology...
Before there are major breakthroughs in the current materials science, the difference in shelf life between overhead warehouses and pit-type storage is actually not very big. Fei Qian even discovered that in the loess area of Sanfu, Chang'an, the difference between cave dwellings and pits
The storage model seems better than building an overhead warehouse alone.
Moreover, the storage and construction costs of cave dwellings and pits are even cheaper.
You only need to choose a place, then dig a pit, burn it with fire to completely dry the earth wall, then spread plant ash in the pit, then lay wooden boards, spread mats on the wooden boards, and put grain on the mats.
After the chaff, a layer of mat is spread. This is done on both the walls and the bottom of the cellar. This method of "matting chaff between mats" can insulate the grain cellar from moisture and heat, just like a huge thermos bottle, isolating moisture and insects.
Moreover, the storage of grain is basically done in winter, so that the effect of low-temperature grain storage can be achieved. The grain in such a grain cellar is not easy to heat up, germinate, and is not easy to rot. It can effectively extend the "shelf life" of ordinary grain.
Extended to five years, and some drier grains, such as millet, can be stored even longer.
It's just that even if the shelf life is extended, it still needs to be replaced in time. The new food is stored in it, and then the old food is replaced. During this replacement process, many tricks will occur...
Fei Qian had been better at fighting corruption before, so when Qiu Huo replaced grain and grass this year, not many people dared to commit crimes, or the new batch of people were not very familiar with the process...
As for old grain, everyone knows that it doesn’t fetch much, especially when new grain comes on the market.
The problem was not big before. After all, Feiqian was still relatively short on food and grass in the past few years, and even did not dare to expand its troops on a large scale because of food and grass restrictions. However, with the stabilization of a large number of refugees, the development of farming work in various places, and the new
With the use of agricultural tools and the further promotion of composting technology, grain production has been increased. The amount of stored grain and grass has increased, and the amount of old grain replaced has naturally increased.
So, Mi Heng's problem seems to be very important in his personal eyes, but in fact, for Fei Qian, it is obviously how to increase the value of these old grains that is more important...
