"So you agree?"
Zhao Zhen, seeing that hard tactics didn't work, tried soft tactics, and switched to the strategy of inflicting pain on himself and playing the emotional card.
But he had already thought it through. Now that he couldn't go back, he had no choice but to stay.
If you want to live a better life after staying, you naturally have to adopt a cooperative attitude.
Zhao Jun said, "I've been telling you all this for days, and you know the situation in the Song Dynasty. If we want to be strong, in addition to improving productivity and expanding the pie, it is also important to carry out internal rectification."
"Reform is not a dinner party; it will affect the interests of many people, so there may be bloodshed and murder. These things cannot be achieved without your firm support."
"I'm willing to agree to this because I'm a descendant of the Zhao family, and I don't want the Song Dynasty to be destroyed by foreigners, ruled by the Hu people, and turned into servile slaves. But you have a bad history, so I must make it clear to you."
"I agree, but I want three rules!"
"you say."
Zhao Zhen was secretly delighted that his plan had succeeded.
"After that, I'll think carefully about the areas that need reform, make a comprehensive plan, and get your and their opinions before implementing it. What do you think?"
These words also show Zhao Jun's sincerity.
Because he mostly talked nonsense when he was blind, but when he regained his sight and found that he was actually in the Song Dynasty, he had to face the reality and understand that many things are easier said than done.
"In a company, trust between partners is very important. If you can't trust me unconditionally and believe what I say, then we will have to part ways."
"But I can assure you that I'm not going to make drastic policy changes right away."
"Instead, we will conduct in-depth investigations and research to discover what problems the Song Dynasty has and then make corrections. After all, as I said, if we go in the wrong direction, we will go completely wrong."
For example, the Song Dynasty is currently facing internal and external troubles. The Western Xia and Liao Kingdoms are eyeing it covetously, and there are constant uprisings in the country. If we carry out reforms now, like Fan Zhongyan did, and lay off a large number of officials, causing the domestic situation to become more turbulent, it would be no different from suicide.
Therefore, he clearly realized that many things must be done slowly and not all at once. He had to first clarify all the problems and then solve them step by step.
This is the five-step working method of "discovering problems, raising questions, analyzing problems, solving problems, and summarizing problems". It is also what great people often say: deal with the main contradictions first, and then solve the secondary contradictions.
