Shocking revealed! How did the magistrate of the Tang Dynasty use game wisdom to skillfully redress

Mondo Technology Updated on 2024-02-16

This is an extremely ingenious way to make a game, and people can't help but applaud after watching it. During the Tang Dynasty, there was a county that had just taken up a new county. On the day he took office, a peasant broke into the county government office and clamored for the county to avenge his grievances.

The magistrate asked the peasant why he was so noisy, and the peasant explained to him what had happened to him. It turned out that more than ten years ago, a relative in Talin County borrowed a few cows from his family because he was in urgent need of plowing the land. To be on the safe side, they also signed a lease of cattle. However, later, the relative took advantage of their family's funeral to secretly take away the cattle lease contract. Now, every time a farmer comes to the door of the relative to ask for cattle and rent, the relative kicks him out on the grounds that he has no contract. Not long ago, when the farmer went to see the relative again, the relative even lied that he had sold the cattle. The peasants now have a hard time, so they have to turn to the magistrate for help, hoping that he can make decisions for himself.

After listening to the peasants' complaints, the magistrate was deeply sympathetic. He asked the peasant why it had taken so long to report to the official, and the peasant reluctantly said that he had already complained to the government, but because of the cross-county affairs and the lack of strong evidence, the previous magistrate had not redressed his grievances. After the magistrate understood the situation, he asked the farmer to go back first, and promised that he would definitely help him get his cattle and rent back.

However, the magistrate racked his brains and couldn't come up with a perfect solution. At this time, the master whispered a plan in the ear of the magistrate. After hearing this, the magistrate's eyes lit up and he immediately did so. He called two penniless beggars, and not only provided them with abundant food and wine, but also gave them two taels of silver each. Subsequently, the magistrate explained to them the reason for the incident, and promised that there would be a reward of three taels of silver after the matter was completed. The beggars immediately understood the magistrate's intentions and gladly accepted the task.

Then, the magistrate put the two beggars in prison. The next day, he opened a court to interrogate the two beggars from yesterday. The magistrate shouted at them for stealing the farmer's cattle. The beggars were very frightened, so they had to "confess" according to the instructions of the magistrate, and told the location of the stolen cows. The magistrate sent people to take the beggars to identify the scene, and when they arrived at their destination, they found that it was the family of a relative of the farmer in Linxian County. The beggars insisted that they had sold the cattle to the family. At first, of course, the relative did not admit that he had stolen the cattle, but at the insistence of the beggars and the coercion of the magistrate, he had no choice but to take out the cattle rental contract and said loudly: "This is my rented cow, the contract is proof!" However, just then, the peasant suddenly appeared in front of him. Everyone laughed, and the relatives realized that they had been deceived. Eventually, he had to return the cattle and rent, and pay the rent that had been owed for more than a dozen years.

This method of doing the game is really clever, and it can be described as killing three birds with one stone: it not only helped the farmers get back the cattle and rent; and allowed Xinzhi County to earn performance at the beginning of his tenure; At the same time, it also let the people see the wisdom and justice of the county, thus winning their support.

Dealing with people, no matter what kind of industry or industry, is dealing with people. Therefore, if we want to make some achievements and not be calculated by villains, we all need to be well versed in human nature and know how to use people. Only by constantly learning and improving one's own wisdom and ability can we avoid falling into the situation set by others. If you feel that you lack the heart and eyes, are often cheated on, used by others, or are unable to make money, it is likely that you know nothing about human nature or lack the wisdom and means to deal with complex interpersonal relationships and social situations.

Therefore, I recommend you to read this book "Game Theory". Although it was considered a book that was not on the table, too real and cruel for ordinary people to read, it was always being read by those who were officials and businessmen. This book details how to deal with things, how to play games, and how to use negative thinking to think about things, find shortcuts quickly, and use means to achieve goals. It's a great book that trains us to see through tricks, see through tricks, and improve our ability to think backwards. When you can use gambling strategies with ease in life and work, success beckons you not far away.
