Chapter 115: The Covenant of Ten Thousand Peoples Pact (6)

Three days later.

The people who gathered here have not left yet, but are more enthusiastic.

I have food and drink, but I don’t have autumn harvest for the time being. I just heard many sayings about paradise yesterday, and my passion is just hot.

Shi and the secretary were holding paper and pen and recording something.

Some people kept running over and saying something.

After saying that, I looked through the text I recorded before, and after confirming that it had not been recorded before, I read it out loud and discussed with everyone how to deal with it.

All the people who gather here are in the law.

People keep telling out all kinds of unexpected situations that may be encountered in life. When most people think that this matter is necessary to be established, they will discuss what to do if it violates it.

Zaomei Qisui took a piece of paper and ran to Shi from a distance, reciting: "The people from the village in the 7th century of Jiawu, said that if someone stole the cow and ate it, how should he be punished?"

After looking around, it seemed that no one mentioned this matter yet, probably because ox plowing has not yet been popular.

The village and community in the 7th century of Sino-Japanese War was just a number, and it was a crafting machine used for temporary gatherings.

Perhaps because the village community had a permanent residence, I knew the prophecy of the land, and I heard the moist people stationed in the village talk about the use of oxen plowing and mysterious things like plowshares and chariots in the future, so I deliberately mentioned it.

Soon, I said this matter loudly to show my inquiries, and at the same time, I used the power of the Mo to explain the future use of the cow.

Many people shouted: "Cut your hands!"

Some people also shouted: "Smash to death!"

The barbaric customs at this time are still retained in the villages and communities. This is not the Qin State after the reform. It is impossible for the law to go deep into the grassroots level. The villages and communities still retain the original cruel customs.

No one thinks there is anything wrong with these seemingly cruel ways of dealing with them, especially after the Mozhe explained the changes brought by the cow.

However, some people objected: "If you smash your hands to death or chop your hands, there will be no cows. Although some people may not dare to do this in the future, chopping your hands will be of no use to those who lose your cows."

As soon as we mentioned this, many people agreed and then shouted: "You Mozhe said a good idea. If we think it's good, we agree."

At this time, there were many senior Mohist figures around him. They did not have the right to legislatively, and only had the right to suggest the law for all people at this time.

This was not deliberately divided by Shi, but Mozi insisted on doing so.

Mozi agrees with the synonyms of the upper and lower parts, and the lower parts absolutely obey the upper parts.

Even though these things were created, Mozi still did not change the synonyms of the upper and lower parts, and the lower part absolutely obeyed the upper part, but the definition of the upper part was different from before.

In Mozi's view, this is no longer the king, but the "public will" bound by the interests of the people.

It can be the Lord or not, and the Lord himself is just a symbol, and the true Lord should be "public will".

Everyone must obey this "public will", so it is the best. Even the Mohist has the right to suggest. After all the suggestions are finally accepted, they become a "upper" that cannot be easily touched, and ultimately achieve synonyms of the upper and lower levels.

Hearing that the people hope that the Mozhe would give a good solution, Mozi understood that once these methods were accepted by the people, they would have to be written on the silk. In the end, everyone agreed with them, and then they would be the common law between the villages and communities participating in the gatherings in Peidi, so they attached great importance to it.

Shi said first: "I think this is the case. If this person can compensate, it will be forced to compensate a cow, and then a part of the money will be confiscated. If there is no money, the government will first compensate the cow, and then the person will force labor to repay the cow's money. If it is done for the second time, it will be directly used to cut the nose, and then continue to force labor to repay double."

The word "Government" that combines government and government" does not exist at this time, but both words already exist, so it is not abrupt to combine them together. On the contrary, it is not necessary to explain it to understand the meaning.

Of course, this understanding is limited to those who have read books. As for the word "people" is a new word, it only needs to be accepted by them. Even if you call this thing one, two, and three, it will not affect the people's understanding.

In "Da Ya, Emperor", there is a saying that "the two countries have not been protected, and the four countries have been protected, so we can study and conquer them. God avenges them, and hates their contours." Political means political affairs.

The "Rites" also said that the Xia official Sima was in charge of his subordinates and in charge of national affairs, and was called the governor of the king and the country.

At this time, the division was very detailed. The heavenly officials were also called governing officials, and had the power to govern; the earthly officials were called instructors, and were responsible for education; the spring officials were called ritual officials, and were responsible for sacrifices; the summer officials were called governing officials, and were responsible for politics and law; the autumn officials were called criminal officials, and were responsible for arrest and disposal...

The word "fu" in the government also exists, and when it comes to the theory of "fu treasury", it has it even more in all countries.

According to the name at this time, it is not appropriate to call it a government government. At least it should be a government government at the level of a heavenly official, and in fact the responsibilities of the six officials must be.

But if the six officials have all their responsibilities, it will be a bit overbearing, so the word "government" and "government" that is vague and easy to be understood by other schools.

Furthermore, since ancient times, the word "Zhou Mon" has simply changed from the affairs of the Grand Sima to the meaning of "official affairs", which is just right here.

When Ran Qiu returned home late, Confucius asked him why he came back late. Ran Qiu said that there was political affairs. Confucius immediately said seriously: You can't call it political affairs, you should call it political affairs. Only official affairs are called politics. What you do for Ji's servants is called affairs...

Now that it is a public opinion, it is just right to take this name, and there is no abruptness.

During the two days of gathering, Defender Fifty-four had already explained the truth that the Moists wanted to express.

Since Mozi regarded the public will as "upper", this "upper" is not a human, but a blurred thing, so it is impossible for him to execute this will by himself.

If there is really a person who can condense a personality by combining the power of faith and public will, it would be simple, but it would be impossible.

Therefore, there needs to be an intermediary between the public and the public opinion, which is a wise man elected by a specific wise man. The role of these wise man is to find ways to ensure the implementation of the supreme "public opinion".

In essence, everyone is part of the upper part, but if they are a separate person, they are completely lower, so they should go from above, both from above and from themselves.

This logic solves the problem of what is "bottom from top" and "bottom from top" in the heavenly ambition.

If this is not solved, you can easily become a king. Now that you have reached this point, you can no longer be a king, or at least you cannot be a king with absolute power.

Of course, this thing is rare in the world where the monarchs can be forced to commit suicide at this time. Weiss, who had initial reforms, could barely count as half of them, and other countries were still early.

Although the government has not yet been established, this intermediary between the "upper and down" defined by the Mesoter can already exist in imagination.

Regarding the law of killing cattle, the suggestions put forward are not very good, but they can demonstrate the role of this upcoming "government" in a short period of time, deepen the impression of the people, and facilitate further increase of the authority they have in the future.

Anyway, if you have the opportunity in the future, you can still practice the Dharma. One time and another, it is estimated that there are not many people stealing cattle, and the place is not big. The ink person can still afford it. They will slowly correct it when they have the right to collect taxes in the future.

After considering the discussion, the ink people agreed and took the paper to ask the suggestions they had just discussed and asked if everyone agreed.

Everyone may not understand what the intermediary is between the upper and lower levels, but they like this way of handling it. They all agreed and thought it was excellent.

First of all, the one who loses a cow most wants is a cow, rather than punishing the stole the cow, which is for self-interest; but if you only punish the stole the cow, you will only suffer less similar losses for others, but you cannot take into account your own interests.

Everyone cheered and said, "In this way, I agree. I will record this law in the chapter "Theft Law". I have started writing. I cannot change it unless it is the next gathering!"

The person below shouted, "Then write it down quickly, we all agree."

After finishing writing, he read the rules loudly again. After confirming that everyone had heard it clearly, he solemnly put the paper in his hand aside.

This is decided, not a discussion. In a few days, everyone present will press the handprint or write down their names to confirm that it will take effect.

Anyway, there are not many people, and there are so many people in small places, so there are so many people in the Mo, so you can manage this way without leaving any blind spots.

After writing this, Shi did not continue the next question about how to convict theft. He glanced at Mo Zi, and saw Mo Zi nodding at him, and then shouted: "Just like the matter of stealing a cow just now, even if it is to be solved, someone needs to arrest and someone executes it."

The people said one after another: "Your Messenger will catch you. We will let you catch you."

As soon as the person below finished speaking, Mo Zi smiled and knew that the time was too short, and the people still did not understand the "name" in it.

Mozi praised the name and the name of the name, so Mozi praised it very much when he proposed the punctuation that was not easy to misinterpret the original meaning.

This name may not necessarily be understood immediately by the public, but the Mohist cannot not explain it clearly. This is called justification. Mozi attaches great importance to it, and of course he attaches more importance to the right to interpret the name.

Shi smiled at the people below and said, "You are wrong. You are not asking us Moji to capture it, you agree to our Moji to do this. But you ask the people of the Government to capture it, you agree to let the Government do your public opinion and everyone."

"The Mohist is just because he happens to have this ability, so you recognize that he will form a government in the future. Don't confuse this. If we Mohist change our name tomorrow and call it Confucianism, what should we do?"

The people laughed and shouted, "Then as you say, write it down, it doesn't matter."

Shi Xiaoxiao, and said nothing for the time being, and said, "There is another thing. The Mo is naturally a righteous person, and as long as he benefits the world, there is no other way. But if the Mo is not enough, and someone happens to be good at catching and stealing, he may not be a Mo. He must maintain the public opinion of everyone, and he must also have a meal. Therefore, taxes and taxes are different. You know, this is one of the functions of taxes."

Everyone thought, it turns out that taxes are used to do this? But I don’t know that we used to pay the silk tax and the millet tax. But no one really explained what it was for. The Mozhe said this, which makes sense.

But then I thought about it that I had already paid a tax. Do I have to pay another tax if I set up this government? Although it is for everyone's benefit, it would be bad if I paid another tax. Besides, why don't you melancholy ask for taxes from the monarch?

Or if you explain the truth to the monarch, the monarch will return our taxes to the government, right?
