Looking at the Life of Water Margin (67): Jiang Jing, the divine operator, tells us: Upright people are fat and poor, and they can absolutely achieve a clean wind in their sleeves
Text/Chinoiserie
The divine operator Jiang Jing is a good man of Liangshan who I like more. Two reasons, one of which is that Jiang Jing's surname is Jiang, which is my family's door, and as one of the hundred family names, Jiang Jing does not occupy a position among the 108 generals, and it is somewhat unreasonable to say that Jiang Jing has won the face of our Jiang clan. In addition, Jiang Jing is still a fellow of Hunan, which also makes me prefer. Second, Jiang Jing was a man of integrity, and as soon as he went to Liangshan, he became the logistics minister and chief accountant, and for so many years, such a big fat gap did not even spread the slightest corruption problem, until the time when Liangshan recruited security, there was still a large amount of gold and silver in his hand, presiding over the "big buy of gold and gold", the real two sleeves of clean wind. I often hear the saying: Don't say that people are corrupt officials, just because you are not in that position. This means that you will also be greedy when you have the opportunity.
Jiang Jingzu was a native of Tanzhou, Hunan Province, who was originally a descendant of the Fallen Keju, and abandoned literature and martial arts when the imperial examination was not the first. Jiang Jing was very talented in business, especially proficient in book arithmetic, more able to stab guns and sticks, and deploy troops in formation, known as "god operators". Jiang Jingxian, together with Moyun Golden-winged Ou Peng, Tiedi Xian Ma Lin, and Nine-tailed Turtle Tao Zongwang, fell grass on Huangmen Mountain, and was the second boss and cottage military division. Later, under the planning of Jiang Jing, a piece of the Song River went up to Liangshan and became a rare technical talent in Liangshan. When Song Jiang first arranged for the general to be appointed, Jiang Jing was in charge of the Kuzang Warehouse. This position is not something that ordinary people can do, and it is precisely because Song Jiang has taken a fancy to Jiang Jing's strengths and outstanding abilities that he has arranged for him to hold such an important post. Along with Jiang Jing, who was in charge of Liangshan's money and grain, there were also the small whirlwind Chai Jin and the heavenly eagle Li Ying. These two big men are far inferior to Jiang Jing in terms of account management, and letting them participate in the management of this fat gap is more of a co-optation and symbolic significance, after all, before they went to Liangshan, they were the rich and powerful on the side of the rich, and they brought capital into the shares. Therefore, the two big men are honorary hanging up, and it is Jiang Jing who is really in charge of personal work.
Such a fat difference naturally many people want to intervene, especially Song Jiang's who lineage, but no one has Jiang Jing's ability, so it is not easy for you to manage. "Divine Operator" was not called in vain, and Jiang Jing got this position by strength. Liangshan's account is not easy to manage, it is not easy to remember, today hit this village, tomorrow washed that village, all the belongings have to be put into the account into the warehouse. Of course, it is not excluded that some bold people will fill their own pockets, and after a long time, will not there be contradictions, and will not who will rob them at that time? That's not messy! Liangshan is a public-owned society that eats big pots of rice. How to achieve the return of granules to the warehouse, Jiang Jing naturally formulated a set of fair, reasonable and effective management methods, or those barbarians who are not afraid of heaven will abide by the rules and discipline? This is the level of Jiang Jing's superiority, and the difficulty is no less than that of platooning troops.
But what is more difficult is the logistical support work of liangshan's military horses. Everyone understands that to fight a war is to fight logistics, and if the supply of grain and grass materials is not enough, if the hind legs are pulled, then the battle cannot be fought at all, and if it is won, it will not be able to consolidate the results of the war. Therefore, Jiang Jing, the quartermaster general, has a heavy responsibility and cannot make any mistakes. Don't look at Jiang Jing as he did in the front like other brothers, in fact, he played the biggest role behind the scenes, and was a powerful guarantee for Liangshan's victory in the Southern Expedition to the North. Some readers even view Jiang Jing as the energy center of the Liangshan system, and whether it can operate effectively is related to the life and death of Liangshan. I don't think that's an exaggeration at all. Therefore, except for Jiang Jing, looking at the whole Of Liangshan, no one can do it. The prosperity of Liangshan is inseparable from Jiang Jing's dedication.
Don't look at Liangshan's abundant funds, there are many sources of funds, there are more places to spend money, three days a small feast, five days a big banquet, today to send gifts to the court officials tomorrow and then open a hook bar courtyard hotel, tens of thousands of horses and family members to eat and drink Lhasa, all have to ask Jiang Jing a person, if there is no planning, budget control, extravagance and waste is Jinshan Yinshan will also be eaten empty, every penny must be used to the real place, or when it is not recruited, where can there be money for everyone to share? Jiang Jing's contribution is in everyone's eyes, and Song Jiang is also like a mirror in his heart. Therefore, Jiang Jing was arranged in the room on the left side of Zhongyi Hall and lived with the great leaders of the Liangshan Politburo. This is a great spiritual encouragement, and here, I have to admire Song Jiang's management of intellectuals, which is indeed very clever!
As the saying goes, often walk by the river, where are the feet that are not wet? Jiang Jingtian deals with gold and silver every day, will he be moved one day, carry a few pieces of gold and take a few silver tickets home? Or do you have to work on the books? No, it won't! Because once this thing is done, it is impossible to rest, today take tomorrow to do, after all, it will be discovered by shrewd people, Song Jiang Wu uses Li Ying which is not a human spirit? Besides, there is still an iron face in sight, which can spare Jiang Jing? There is a little bit of wind and grass, and those guys who kill people without blinking are not alive to shave him? Of course, Jiang Jing is not afraid of death and does not dare to be corrupt, but really he has the bottom line of being a person and the professional ethics of an excellent financial and accounting teacher, and it is precisely his high degree of self-discipline and intellectual style that has won the respect and respect of the leaders of Liangshan.
Jiang Jing used facts to prove that even if an upright person is in a fat shortage, he can still achieve a clean wind in his sleeves! Today, many corrupt elements do not lack Jiang Jing's talents, but they do not have Jiang Jing's moral character and have fallen into a ruined and discredited situation. For those able people who are in high positions and hold real deficiencies, we must learn from Jiang Jing's principle and spirit of being a man who distinguishes between public and private with two sleeves and a clean wind, otherwise they will be caught by reaching out, and sooner or later they will not escape the sanctions of the law!
