Under the fiery sun of early April in the Song calendar, the wheat of winter wheat in Henan is still golden. The peasants who remained in the township were ready for the summer harvest and did not stay in the township but worked on the construction site, while the people working in the city hurried home. A large number of people rushed back to their hometown from all directions like birds returning to their nests, and the already lively official road was crowded with people at this time, which meant that the official road was a little crowded and immovable.

Zhao Jiaren was on a hillside and watched the tide of homecoming before the summer harvest. Most of the high-ranking officials such as the Minister of Transportation, the Minister of Railways, and the Minister of Civil Affairs next to him saw such a lively official road for the first time, and everyone did not speak, guessing the thoughts of the Zhao Guanjia in their hearts. These people don't speak, and Zhao Jiaren doesn't speak. He thought of the Spring Festival in the 21st century, but felt that there were too many differences. In the 21st century, with the rapid popularization of high-speed rail and bullet trains, China's travel is becoming more and more ambitious. Not to mention the current situation, compared to that time, even the 80s, when there were many long-distance buses, probably can't compare. The crowded roads are all two-legged and four-legged, which is very incompatible with the industrial beauty that Zhao Jiaren admires.

After watching the scene, Zhao Jiaren said: "Who else wants to watch anything else?" ”

The high-ranking officials were silent, and they didn't really want to come to see it if they could. Some departments have seen enough, and some departments simply don't want to bother to look at it.

Seeing that no one answered, Zhao Jiaren said, "Let's go, go back." ”

Yang calmly watched the important ministers leave obediently without anyone speaking, he felt that he had a lot of questions, so he leaned over to Zhao Jiaren and asked, "I wonder if the official family made a mistake in letting the Ministry of Foreign Affairs come to watch?" ”

"No mistake." Zhao Jiaren replied: "The Ministry of Foreign Affairs has something to do with everything in front of us. ”

Yang Congrong knew that Zhao Jiaren had always been full of scheming and knowledgeable, and he said that this matter was related to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and naturally it would be related to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. It's just that Yang Congrong didn't understand where the relationship was. Yang calmly continued to ask: "The official, the minister still doesn't understand. ”

"What do you think when you see these people along the way?"

"This ...... They're hard. ”

"That's right, it's hard." Zhao Jiaren nodded in agreement.

Yang still did not understand where the Ministry of Foreign Affairs' hard-working connection with the returned peasants was. It is impossible for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to meddle in domestic affairs, so how can it be involved with the domestic peasants? Yang Congrong also fell silent, it is Yang Congrong's consistent practice not to speak about things that he is not sure about, and at this time, in the face of such a situation, he chose to remain silent in front of the officials.

Zhao Jiaren has no plans to tell the plan and the plan, this is Zhao Qian's errand, as a father, Zhao Jiaren only supports his son behind his back with silence. The same is true for leading the important ministers to watch this time, and many things will be prepared for everyone first. There is no lower limit for the officials to pull up the skin, first let them see how congested the road is, and then whoever says something to break the lower limit can clean up whom.

Back in Kaifeng, the Minister of Telecommunications came to find Zhao Jiaren. The minister said to Zhao Jiaren with a sad and indignant face: "Have you heard someone talking about the minister recently?" ”

"There are so many people talking about you, but they don't know what it is."

"Said that the ministers acted harshly and forced people to die." said the Minister of Telecommunications.

Recently, there have been several reports in the newspapers about the suicide of personnel in telecommunications units. According to reports, these personnel all chose to commit suicide after being the last in the assessment for a long time. Because most of the parents of the suicides were officials or cadres or personnel of state-run units, newspapers reported negative attitudes towards the telecommunications department's practices. In 21st century parlance, it seems that someone is starting to take the wind in the newspapers. Directly refers to the assessment plan designated by the Minister of Telecommunications.

This is really where there are people, there are rivers and lakes, and if there are newspapers, there are people who take advantage of the direction. Zhao Jiaren did not express his opinion, as if the time had not yet been announced for the large-scale employment of Japanese laborers. It's too early to comment on those who use newspapers to take advantage of the trend.

Seeing that the expression of the Zhao official family had not changed, the minister only felt extremely aggrieved, and he defended himself loudly, "The official family, of course I don't want such a thing." In order to clarify the facts, the minister specially sent an investigation team to the following to investigate in detail. Unexpectedly, the situation became more and more chaotic, and the news received by the investigation team was already a little outrageous. ”

"Hmm." Zhao Jiaren has seen so many bad things in the 21st century, especially after seeing the performance of the American Cancer Union, and has opinions on the difficulty of the investigation.

"Official, many people below say that the policy of the Ministry of Telecommunications is not to let them live. When many people heard about this, they asked someone to ask for help, saying that they would treat their children to a bite of food no matter what. ”

"Humph!" Zhao Jiaren chuckled. What a familiar saying, Zhao Jiaren has his own class feelings for laborers. In the 21st century, the Chinese Industrial Party regarded itself as a working man. However, the Industrial Party, which was oriented towards the interests of the workers, never shared most of the views of an agrarian society.

"Why are the officials laughing?" The Minister of Telecommunications' eyes were red. He felt that there was too much ridicule and ridicule in Zhao Guanjia's smile, which was undoubtedly unbearable for the aggrieved Minister of Telecommunications.

"The person I'm laughing at has nothing to do with you, you don't have to think about it."

"How can these people have nothing to do with the ministers."

"Then I ask you, if those people say this for you or for the results they want."

"Yes, of course...... Uh...... "The Minister of Telecommunications was stunned, maybe the brain is used too much, and the emotional intelligence logic of the men in science and engineering is sometimes very problematic. Even if it doesn't feel right, the Minister of Telecommunications still can't think that the claim that he is involved has nothing to do with him. He struggled for a while before he said unconfidently: "What they say should be for themselves...... bar. ”

"In that case, you do your job. That's your tenant's business, and why should you care about what people say and things that don't concern you? Can't you spend all day listening to what others say? ”

"Yes...... The minister didn't want to do that. ”

"I know you don't want to, but if you do, I'll remove you. Causally, why did those people commit suicide? ”

"They feel wronged?" The Minister of Telecommunications was not convinced of his explanations.

"Nope." Zhao Jiaren decisively rejected this view, and he continued: "They feel hopeless. I think many people in the telecommunications sector firmly believe that after entering this department, they will have a stable job, and their future life can be based on this job. Get married, have children, honor your parents, and live a decent life. Do you think these ideas are wrong? ”

"Uh...... Absolutely. The Minister of Telecommunications replied that he was still not confident.

Zhao Jiaren sighed: "I'll give you a few minutes, think about why you hesitate for yourself." ”

A few minutes later, the Minister of Telecommunications spoke, and this time he did not hesitate, "The official, the minister thinks that the work must be done well first, and only after doing a good job can there be a good future." ”

"You think so, so you can be called the Minister of Telecommunications. You think that everything you get is just the result of your hard work, that you enjoy the job, and that you get a lot of joy and confidence from it. ”

"Exactly!" The Minister of Telecommunications' eyes lit up.

"A lot of people are looking for the pay for the job, and I don't laugh at that, it's human. For many people, it doesn't matter if they do a telecom job or not, what they need is the dignity and pay that the job brings them. ”

The look of the Minister of Telecommunications showed some indifference caused by resistance, which was really the style of a science and engineering man. After thinking for a moment, the Minister of Telecommunications said, "Official, I will strengthen the system after I go back." ”

"The strengthened system you are talking about will not be a more detailed and stricter management of the current regulations, right?"

"The official is right."

"I don't think it's right."

"What should the officials do?"

Zhao Jiaren sorted out his thoughts for a while, and suddenly smiled, "Ha, I thought that after you went back, you would have to explain clearly the meaning of the five words of serving the people to the vast number of personnel in the telecommunications department." Let them understand what they are doing, let them understand what kind of department the telecommunications sector really is. When everyone understands, we will adjust the system according to serving the people. ”

"Serving the people......" Minister of Telecommunications was somewhat overwhelmed. This was said by the Society, and the Minister of Telecommunications never intended to serve anyone other than Zhao Jiaren. Zhao Guan's family has the grace of promoting him with a sense of knowledge, why should he serve those people who have nothing to do with the Minister of Telecommunications.

Zhao Jiaren understood what the minister was thinking, what the feudal monarch needed was to firmly grasp all power and the loyalty of his subordinates, and Zhao Jiaren might be in the top three among the emperors of the past dynasties in this regard. Such success did not make Zhao feel rejoiced, and what he was expecting was not. When Qin Shi Huang was alive, weren't Wang Qian, Meng Tian, Li Si, and Zhao Gao loyal to him? Therefore, Qin Shi Huang founded a new social system in China as a great reformer in Chinese history, which can really be said to be bathed in the ancestral grace of the ancestors for all generations.

Zhao Jiaren still remembers the poems that the industrial party would mention if they completely repudiated the feelings of feudal agricultural society. Persuade the monarch to scold Qin Shi Huang less, and the cause of burning the pit should be discussed. The soul of the ancestral dragon is still dead, and the scientific name of Confucius is Gao Shizhen. Hundreds of generations have practiced Qin politics and law, and ten batches are not good articles. Familiar with the feudal theory of the Tang Dynasty, Mo Congzi Hou returned to King Wen.

With such a majestic and immense, as soon as Qin Shi Huang died, the Qin State fought for power. The fact that China's two great reformers faced such a situation after their deaths does not just show that personal loyalty is unreliable. Practical interests always trump nostalgia.

That person is remembered by the Chinese people and the people of the world, not because that person represents himself or represents a certain family or a certain force. That person represents an ideal, represents a path, represents a philosophical thought. In short, that person resonates with the idea of human emancipation and progress, and the people will miss what he represents.

Only by surpassing oneself can one transcend life and death. Even if it is for his own sake, Zhao Jiaren understands that he needs to do this.
