The Three Kingdoms: If you don't have money to buy an official position, you can only be the em

Chapter 48 Political Entropy
Huang Chengyan's question was so sharp that Jiang Cheng fell silent for a moment.

The dragon slayer turned into an evil dragon. This problem has not only troubled the Central Plains for five thousand years, but even foreign countries, and even the self-proclaimed most democratic "Eagle Sauce", have not been able to solve it.

This is a kind of political entropy.

That is: people who can make rules must be people with outstanding abilities and will occupy more social resources, so that their descendants will have a starting point far higher than ordinary people and control more resources.

This is the essence of the formation of major families.

Speaking of ancestors, among the descendants of Yan and Huang, which ancestor did not have wealth?

In terms of blood, we are all the same.

It was the repeated changes of dynasties, where the strong became stronger and the weak became weaker, that eventually gave rise to the Yuan family, the Sima family, the Jiangxia Huang family and other aristocratic families.

In the beginning, they may have treated the people well.

Originally, he was born into ordinary people.

But human nature is insatiable. After gaining wealth and status, they do not get satisfaction, but greater greed. The frog that climbs out of the well will not think of itself as a frog anymore, and will look down on its peers who are still struggling at the bottom of the well.

And they don't care whether there are companions pushing them when they are climbing up.

Dian Wei is honest and simple, while Zhao Yun is loyal and devoted.

But will their son?

Are their grandchildren still like this?

Let alone them, Jiang Chengdu didn't even dare to say that if he had a son, he wouldn't become a tyrant who exploited the people!

"If you want to let those who follow you gain fame and wealth, then you must take it from those who don't have it. But if you don't give them fame and wealth, then you're letting down those who have worked so hard to follow you!" Huang Chengyan asked, "How do you solve this problem?"

It was obvious that he was really considering joining Jiang Cheng.

Therefore, considerations were raised.

Dian Wei had no idea about this, he just felt like his head was itching and he needed to grow a brain.

But he patted his head and his brain died again.

The worries disappeared in an instant.

Zhao Yun also looked at Jiang Cheng, very curious about Jiang Cheng's opinion on this issue.

"Those who carry firewood for the public should not be allowed to freeze to death in the snow!" Jiang Cheng said: "If I were to choose, if there was only one meal left, I would give priority to Dian Wei and Zhao Yun!"

Huang Chengyan had no reaction to this, and Zhao Yun was not happy either.

"If some people eat two bites and some eat one bite, I will let them eat two bites too!" Jiang Cheng added: "It's not that I am partial, but those who have made contributions should be rewarded, and those who have made contributions should not be without rewards!"

At this point, Huang Chengyan reacted.

He nodded and said, "That makes sense. But if someone wants to eat three bites, and someone else doesn't have any, what are you going to do?"

Hearing this, Jiang Cheng did not answer.

Instead, he looked at Zhao Yun and said, "What would you do?"

"Yun will definitely abide by his duties." Zhao Yun said.

Then, Dian Wei also said: "I won't steal my brothers' things!"

"My answer is that those who abide by the rules are of one mind with me. Those who can make a living are of one mind with me. I am in the majority, and the people's will is in favor of me. I don't need to do anything, and someone will set things right!" Jiang Cheng said.

This attitude made Huang Chengyan understand.

Jiang Cheng’s bottom line is that aristocratic families can have it, but they will not have any privileges in the Yellow Turban Kingdom.

This is also a way left for Huang Chengyan and the scholars who defected to the Yellow Turbans.

Those who are willing to leave can leave, but those who are unwilling are the enemy.

"Scholars and farmers, workers and businessmen, officials and civilians cannot be equal," Huang Chengyan said, shaking his head.

“But if we put people first, people are not classified as scholars, farmers, merchants or artisans based on their origins, nor are they classified as officials or civilians based on their origins. Then even if people have different identities, there is no difference in personality!” Jiang Cheng said: “I can’t be perfect, but I can try my best. A world of great harmony is the great wish of saints, and maybe it will never be realized, but although I cannot reach it, my heart yearns for it. At least I can try my best to clean up the world’s filth and leave a better future for future generations!” “This is difficult,” said Huang Chengyan.

"So I cultivated 'supernatural powers'!"

……

Finally, under the threat of death, Huang Chengyan gave in, surrendered to Jiang Cheng, and handed over the "formation" he was good at.

The Jiangxia Huang family, derived from the Ji surname, are descendants of Emperor Huangdi.

The Five Elements and Eight Diagrams, the art of formation, first appeared in the Yellow Emperor and flourished in the reign of King Wen of Zhou. The emperor of the Later Zhou Dynasty was worried about rebellion, so he divided the formation into "military formation" and "magic technique".

After several evolutions, only the former remains in the outside world.

Only some of the descendants of Huangdi, who formed groups on their own, secretly collected some of them.

And the Jiangxia Huang family is just that.

It was passed down from generation to generation, from males to females, from the eldest to the youngest, and finally it was passed down to Huang Chengyan.

"In ancient times, there were ten major military formations: the long snake in a straight line, the twin dragons emerging from the water... the nine linked formations, the ten-sided ambush!" Huang Chengyan drew a picture and said, "And the one inherited by my Huang family is the 'Nine Linked Formation', also known as 'Huang Ge's Nine Bends', 'Nine Bends of the Yellow River Formation', which is arranged in nine palaces..."

He did not keep it to himself and taught all the formations he knew to Jiang Cheng.

This is a petition.

Otherwise, if you come to us for help but keep your special skills to yourself, what use will you be?
You know, Jiang Cheng is taking the "universal education" route.

It is strictly forbidden to cherish the old things.

"The Nine-Child Chain Formation seems to be different from the 'Nine Palaces and Eight Diagrams Formation'?" Jiang Cheng studied it carefully and found that Huang Chengyan's attainments in formation were actually a bit "average".

Not only is it ineffective against extremely powerful generals, it is also ineffective when there are many people.

In terms of personal skills, it is quite useless.

If there is anything else that is amazing, it is that you can use "soldiers" to form a formation, showing the power of the complete "ancient formation".

As a result, after getting the trick, he could also deduce the other nine military formations that had formation diagrams but no "magic".

Of course, the prerequisite is to have a formation diagram.

There were really not many people in the Yellow Turbans who knew that kind of secret technique. When Jiang Cheng thought back to the entire novel, he only knew that the "Cao Family" possessed the "Eight Gates Golden Lock Formation".

Guan Yu knew the "Long Snake Formation", which was most likely inherited from Liu Bei's family.

Of course, the possibility of him doing the reverse cannot be ruled out.

It is because of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms that we have the "Ten Ancient Formations" with a long history. According to historical records, the "Long Snake Formation" seems to have been created by Guan Yu.

"Zilong, do you know how to set up formations?" Jiang Cheng asked.

Hearing this, Zhao Yun shook his head: "I learned how to break the formation."

As for Dian Wei, he just started to smile foolishly.

The meaning is very clear: I only have muscles in my head, not brains, so I can't do such advanced things.

"Then you will be the one to learn the 'Nine Sons Linked Formation'! I will get you some soldiers later. Once you learn it well, it will be of great use in the future." Jiang Cheng said.

At this moment, Huang Chengyan looked at him eagerly.

"What's wrong?"

"I heard that anyone who joins the Taiping Dao can learn the 'Jiang Family's Supreme Divine Power'?" Huang Chengyan showed a yearning look and asked, "Can it lead to immortality?"

Jiang Cheng: “…”

You’re not a monkey, so please stop teasing me.
