A rational person's choice must be profit-oriented. In other words, if something is beneficial to him, he will do it, but is rationality the normal state of people? No, hormones are.
There are more than two hundred hormones in the human body.
The brain thinks that it is directly controlling the entire body, and that all organs and parts are obeying orders, but in fact it is not.
Most of the time it's instinct.
For example, the baby's brain is not fully developed yet, and the brain gate is not closed, but the brain does not require special instructions for eating, drinking, or intervening in control...
The cerebellum and brainstem stand aside and watch the brain sneer.
When the body is strong, the brain becomes meaningful.
The brain is a fragile and central hub, but it is not the brain plasma that directly controls the functions of various organs in the body, but the hormones that drive this organ or part, as well as the nutrients required for its operation. Without hormones and nutrients,
Without the corresponding tissues and organs, even if the nerve conduction in the brain is rubbed and smoked, it is of no use.
Is it very similar to the entire national court system and political groups?
Fei Qian once thought he could control everything...but he soon discovered that this was not actually the case. Many times he was just imagining and planning, and the actual deviation could be seen as the result of correction of the trunk tissue.
.
"Human is a double-edged sword..." Fei Qian said to Zhang Liao calmly, "In fact, most things in the world are double-edged swords. Every advantage has its disadvantages. When using them, most stupid people just use them."
They can think of the advantages, but a few smart people can think of the disadvantages... But you and I are different. We not only need to think about the advantages and disadvantages, but also use them and drive them..."
Zhang Liao was silent for a long time, and seemed to want to speak several times, but no words came out.
Fei Qian glanced at Zhang Liao and said, "It's okay to speak frankly."
Zhang Liao cupped his hands and said, "I...I read Han Feizi's book yesterday: "Killing is called punishment, and celebrating and rewarding is called virtue." Could it be that my lord's move is a double act?"
Two handles.
Not two loaves.
The Western saying "carrot versus stick" is regarded as a classic by Chinese people who lack confidence. Who knows that related theories have already appeared as early as the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. It is a pity that many theories are in the process of development.
It was consciously sealed away by the emperor or the ruling class. It was only provided for the emperor and the ruling class to learn from and was not open to the common people.
This kind of knowledge is called the emperor's art, and it is also called the dragon-slaying method.
Raise your hands, Siku Quanshu, I am familiar with this matter!
When Zhang Liao said this, he was also a little worried about being scolded by Fei Qian.
After all, this involves the relevant theories of the ruling class.
"To attack a powerful minister without any reason to blame him is a sign of weakness." Fei Qian laughed and said, "Wen Yuan hesitated... Do you think I will blame you for this? I punished the subordinate because he was too smart.
Lord... um..."
Fei Qian suddenly thought of Cao Cao and Yang Xiu.
Speaking of which, Yang Xiu’s chicken ribs don’t actually grow on chickens?
Zhang Liao didn't know where Fei Qian's thoughts jumped, so he said with some shame: "I...I am just thinking about where to start in the land of Hexi..."
"Actually, I think Wen Yuan is overqualified for this... If Wen Yuan is still worried, then I will say more. The things here are nothing more than "personnel affairs"." Fei Qian held out two fingers.
Head, "People, how to use people, things, how to act, who does what, what to control whom, it is all the same. For example, in the Hexi Corridor, if you and I just kill indiscriminately, these people will definitely escape to the desert mountains and forests, even if they spend countless soldiers and horses
, even if it takes decades, it may not be able to be completely eliminated... Knowing this, why do you need to do this stupid method? What's more, in the past few decades of Qiang chaos, everyone has known to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, so they fled to the mountains, forests and deserts.
The Han people have no calculation...how pitiful they are..."
Fei Qian looked at the mountains in the distance and sighed, "Everyone knows that those who enter China and speak about China will be China, but what about the other way around? These fleeing Han people... If they raise their weapons again and continue for years... If things go on like this, they will perish.
If the people have lived in the land of barbarians for a long time, and they wear barbarian clothes, eat barbarian people, and speak barbarian people, will they be considered people of China or barbarians?"
"My lord is far-sighted, and I will learn from you." Zhang Liao responded solemnly.
Fei Qian has always had a guess about Liangzhou.
Just like Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty defeated the Xiongnu and said that the world's population was reduced by half in the end, the population of Xiliang dropped sharply. Is it a similar "halving"?
On the one hand, there is a discord between Shandong officials and local big families. Not all outsiders may be strong, and strong dragons may not be able to control local snakes. Therefore, it is very difficult to clarify the local household registration situation. On the other hand, it is indeed
Affected by the war, many places were affected by disasters and many people were displaced.
After years of war, many documents and archives in Liangzhou have been lost, and if they are registered according to the existing situation, it will undoubtedly be equivalent to being an accomplice.
The hidden population of these wealthy Xiliang households was put to "great use" at certain times, such as when eight bastards were fighting!
The Guanlong Group of the Tang Dynasty was famous!
If it is true that in places such as the northern part of Guanzhong, Longxi, and Longyou, there is not even one household in a hundred, and the population is as thin as a single seedling thousands of miles away, what did these Guanlong groups use to rise? Do they use their lips to decide the outcome?
Or are they all barbarians, as recorded in history books?
Is it all about ethnic integration?
When the household registration is lost, who can prove whether the person is a Hu or a Han?
Therefore, Fei Qian is basically certain that the big households in Liangzhou must have a hidden population, but whether there are as many as Fei Qian guessed requires Zhang Liao to do the accounting.
This is the benefit of martial arts.
If it were a person from Shandong who has read poetry and books, of course the people from Shandong are better at talking about big principles, but will these guys from Xiliang listen?
During the Wuhu chaos in China, the Jie people ate two-legged sheep and were so bloody and cruel that humans and gods were outraged. But then they disappeared without a trace. When they appeared, they had no roots or feet, and no one knew where they came from. When they died,
There is no follow-up.
This is not common sense.
Even if fire burns and floods overflow, there are still traces to be traced. Even if Loulan disappears for thousands of years, there are still archaeological discoveries. The archaeological discoveries of the Keji tribe are almost zero. There are no clear tangible objects in later generations.
Clues can confirm the origin of the Jie clan.
Since the Jie people can establish a country, it means that they have at least a certain degree of governance ability at a certain stage. This kind of ability cannot be said to be present, nor will it be lost immediately if it is not available.
Fei Qian felt that the Jie tribe may not only be the cannibals among the Wu Huan Hua, just like King Zhou was indeed worse, but many of the pots were not King Zhou's, and were also blamed on King Zhou.
Strength and ambition are often twin brothers.
A large part of its strength is its population.
The civil servants were in Xiliang, and it was not easy to conduct a population census. A few desperadoes killed the civil servants for no reason!
But if it were replaced by a general like Zhang Liao...
Who will try to escape?
The power Fei Qian showed outside Jiuquan City was equivalent to a warning.
A very stern warning.
Zhang Liao is the executor. If someone really doesn't listen, there is no need to listen. With Zhang Liao's force and mature armaments, it is not a problem at all to destroy the manors and forts with one or two surnames...
It's just that in this world, not everyone is hardworking, and not everyone is willing to take the right path.
"They will not dare to say anything in this place..." Fei Qian said with a smile, "It's probably a delaying strategy... The banquet here is the ruler of heaven, and every inch is the human heart."
Zhang Liao said: "There are many outstanding people in Liangzhou, you should distinguish right from wrong."
Fei Qian smiled and said, "Know what you know, and do what you do. There are also people in Shandong who are well-read in poetry and literature who govern Xiliang, but they can't achieve long-term results... Wenyuan, this is where you can use your methods... Today
After the banquet, in addition to your headquarters, another three thousand soldiers and horses will be left with you. You can appoint and remove local officials in the four counties of Xinyong. You can just report them to the Chancellor. Is the term of office the same as in other places? Three-year examination
Once...to conduct a population census and make all preparations for the resumption of trade in the Western Regions...I have transferred Yishan to come and govern Xiliang..."
Hearing that Yang Fu was helping, Zhang Liao was overjoyed and accepted the order.
In the distance, the bonfire has been lit and the arrangements for the banquet have been completed. But the banquet is not the focus now. No one cares about whether the tables and utensils are gorgeous or whether the dishes are exquisite. What matters is who sits where.
, whose ass is where...
…
…
Every species hopes that the next generation will be strong.
The only exception is humans.
In nature, polygamous sexual monopoly is very common.
When most wild beasts choose a mate, they choose a mate based on the criteria of being more adaptable to the environment, healthier, stronger, and able to produce healthier next generations.
Therefore, although beasts cannot speak human words, the overall mate trend of beasts is to evolve to be more adaptable to the environment, but humans are different.
Humans like negative selection.
In order to ensure the "purity" of the palace, the ancient kings chose only young girls to enter the palace. The result is naturally conceivable. If the mother's body is not sound and unhealthy, how can there be good heirs? After one corpse and two lives, he cried again.
God doesn't bless me, but I don't know that God is busy. How can he have time to manage the things under the buttocks of a few big ants on the ground?
This is the ignorance of ancient people, but what about modern people?
Even if you are uneducated, don't understand the allusion of having a thin waist and starving to death, and have never seen the ugliness of a three-inch golden lotus, you still have eyes after all? Look at the spouses of the top people, which one chooses to cut bones?
An awl-shaped face? Who would choose an A4 waist who cracks ribs? Who would choose a lame man who mutilates his hamstrings and chops his tendons?
Then a group of Internet celebrities...
Well, except for half sticks.
After a hard day's work, a group of people muttered that I was already exhausted, and if I couldn't feel refreshed, why should I use my brain again? It would be so tiring...
Little did he know that the capitalists on the side were simply ecstatic when they heard these words!
Capitalists like laborers who are as tired as a dog when they work every day and as lazy as a pig when they are not working. These are all good people! Great citizens!
As for those who spend all day thinking about street lights and turrets, they are all bad people! They are bandits!
The Zhang family among Liangzhou Sanming is a typical example of negative selection.
The Shandong gentry passed down scriptures to their families, and then they tempted and even forced people all over the world to take scriptures as their priority.
Otherwise it would be disloyal and unfilial!
Liangzhou was originally a frontier, and the strong folk customs were a natural choice and an evolution to adapt to the environment. In this desolate and cold environment, even the worse people would not be able to survive!
Han Feizi said that he was in the service of the king, but in fact it showed that nothing should be taken to extremes, and both soft and hard power are important. Zhang Huan was deceived and was the best example, and it led him to go astray.
So much so that all his own children focus on scripture calligraphy rather than military strategy. In a place like Xiliang, a master calligrapher who only writes cursive scripts that the herdsmen can't understand all day long speaks with force, or
Does the words of a general who can mount a horse and kill the enemy and intimidate the frontier have the power to intimidate?
Maybe Zhang Huan realized his mistake when he was old, so he named his third son "Meng"...
Now Zhang Meng is ready to be fierce.
Zhang Meng and Duan Xuan were sitting together.
This scene, I'm afraid, a few years ago, anyone who saw it would have thought they were hallucinating.
Because although Liangzhou is known as Sanming, the Zhang family and the Duan family have always been at odds.
But now the two of them are sitting together, one old and the other young. They have not only abandoned the original barriers and acrimony, but also crossed the age gap. Is this a positive choice or a negative choice?
"Uncle Duan Shi... Qiaoqi once had a long talk with Uncle Shi..." Zhang Meng raised his hands and said, "Please forgive me for being ignorant, but I don't know what we talked about with Uncle Duan Shi?"
Duan Yan narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "If I said it was nothing, you wouldn't believe it. You must think something was wrong...I said it was something, and you would wonder if it was that matter...so why bother asking?"
Zhang Meng was not embarrassed by being exposed, but smiled calmly and said: "My nephew is just asking, if Uncle Duan Shi doesn't tell me, forget it."
"So, you are being stingy?" Duan Yan also laughed, "Well, it's better to be stingy than to be criticized..."
"..." Zhang Meng was speechless for a moment.
Logically speaking, since the two of them didn't talk to each other and had no common hobbies, and the two families were not compatible before, they should break up immediately, just throw up their sleeves and leave with a snort, but the two of them didn't.
No one had any intention of leaving the table.
Time passed little by little, and seeing the time set by Fei Qian getting closer and closer, both Zhang Meng and Duan Xuan became a little anxious.
And not only Zhang Meng and Duan Xuan, but other people with other surnames who were originally prepared to watch the two men's movements were also restless.
In troubled times, who can have peace of mind?
Although Fei Qian didn't mention a word, who doesn't know what Fei Qian wants?
Fei Qian wants to take back all authority over the Hexi Corridor!
The emperor's order was useless, and Prime Minister Cao didn't care even if he called him. The good days of local big family controlling the countryside seemed to have come to an end...
Perhaps it can be seen as Fei Qian's last act of madness, but who has the guts to stand up to it?
The sound of drums sounded unhurriedly, as if urging these people to make a decision.
If you don't eat the toast, you will naturally have to drink the wine as a penalty.
"How did the hussar know that there would be chaos in Jiuquan?" Zhang Meng gritted his teeth, and under the cover of the drums, he finally couldn't hold himself back and said eagerly, "Someone...could someone report the news?"
Duan Yan glanced sideways at Zhang Meng, "Your friend is visiting everywhere, even a blind person can see..."
After saying this, Duan Xuan stood up, patted his robe, and prepared to go to the banquet.
"Uncle Shi!" Zhang Meng stood up quickly and grabbed Duan Yan's sleeve, "We are both from Liangzhou...Uncle Shi wants to help me no matter what..."
Duan Xuan tugged on the sleeve in Zhang Meng's hand, but did not pull it open for a moment. He said helplessly: "Only if you are willing... let go!"
Duan Yan pulled out his sleeves and swayed forward.
Zhang Meng was a little sluggish.
The nobles all like to bet.
Or is it "gambling" on luck?
In the hearts of the Zhang family and many wealthy people in Liangzhou, Fei Qian is certainly the hero, but isn't the world still not completely determined?
So bet a little here and be a little ambiguous there, is it wrong?
It's not like I took the initiative to provoke it. It was the people in Shandong who threw themselves into their arms and it was voluntary. I...what could I have done wrong? Even if I did, it was just a mistake that men and women all over the world would make.
That’s all!
As for Zhang Meng, did he know that the Handan merchants were engaging in collusion behind his back?
hehe……
Zhang Meng thought he was doing it secretly, but he didn't expect that the curtain on his butt was not lowered at all!
No, this is the butt curtain of a Handan merchant!
Zhang Meng frowned and thought for a long time. It wasn't until the drums sounded again and his servants were urging him that he made up his mind.
He is different from the old guy Duan Yan. Duan Yan can go to the banquet empty-handed, but he can't.
Zhang Meng originally thought that Duan Xuan was old and stupid, but he didn't expect that it was him who was stupid!
"Go and invite Mr. Handan to come."
Zhang Meng sat down again and gave instructions.
Don’t be afraid of being late for good food.
The Handan merchant came, but he had been hiding for the past few days, not daring to approach Fei Qian.
Because in the original plan, Handan Shang was Xu Yi's successor.
One in front and one in back, one call and one response.
As a result, Xu Yi inexplicably launched his attack in advance without even saying hello, while Fei Qian's movements were so fast that he put out the turmoil in Jiuquan before he could do anything.
It was like a small flame was stepped on into the soil before it could spread into a prairie fire.
After meeting Zhang Meng, the Handan merchant was a little strange, "Brother Xian, why haven't you gone to the banquet yet? Go quickly, go quickly, no matter what the hussar says, just respond vaguely... The prime minister is currently working on a critical issue, and the hussar can
How long should we stay here? We should still follow the previously agreed upon policy... It is not convenient for me to meet Hussar here, so I will not go to this banquet..."
If the original plan can be implemented, his Yongzhou governor will have some weight.
But now that Qiao Qi is here, the mere governor of Yongzhou is like a fart...
Who would have thought that Hussar would actually stay in Jiuquan?
Shouldn't we rush to Guanzhong to guard against Cao Cao?
Therefore, if the plan failed, we cannot blame the Handan merchants. It can only be said that the weather was not at the right time and luck did not come, so we can only wait for the next opportunity...
This is what the Handan merchant thought, and what Jijigugu said too.
But obviously, Zhang Meng still didn't want to listen.
Zhang Meng lowered his head, his voice was very low, and interrupted the Handan merchant, "Brother Handan... I am in trouble now, I hope you can lend me something to avoid disaster..."
"What...do you want to borrow?" The Handan merchant seemed to sense something was wrong, and moved his body slightly backwards, as if trying to put some distance between him and Zhang Meng.
Zhang Meng raised his head, his eyes flashed, and his voice was stern, "Let me lend you your head!"
