Chapter 1456 The Final Farce ([-])

The crux of the problem is not whether it looks like it, right or wrong, or whether it can be successful.

Even, as a later generation, it is very clear what is going on with this set.

Basically speaking, Na San just said not to go to China to grab the market, but after he came to power, he went to launch the two crows' aggression. Then you say what he said, does he believe it?
Liu Yu also supports immigration to Fusang. He does not oppose immigration, nor does he oppose agriculture to accommodate the population and alleviate poverty.

However, his immigration theory is purely old-fashioned theory.

In other words, the North American colonies did not have a social basis for social relations such as "capital".There the laborer is not naturally subordinate to capital.

However, Liu Yu’s approach is that since laborers are in the colonized land, they are not “naturally” subordinate to capital.

Then I add a coercive method, forcibly using a method similar to "hard labor slavery" to forcibly maintain the social relationship in which laborers are subordinate to capital, isn't that enough?

Specifically, the forcible nationalization of unowned land.With the power of the state, each piece of land is forced to have a certain currency price.

Want to be a homesteader?

You have to buy land.

It's all over the place, but it's not yours.This wasteland is actually worthless, but I'm sorry, if you don't pay, this land belongs to the imperial court.

So, if you want to buy land, you have to work.

Work and earn wages.

Earn wages and buy land.Then a new round of immigrants repeats the process.

Through this forceful means, the social relationship in which laborers are subordinate to capital is forcibly maintained.

"Using external force to forcibly create conditions to maintain the social relationship in which laborers are subordinate to capital" is the basis for Liu Yu's immigration to Fusang.

However, the ideas of the radical school of real learning, it should be said, are much gentler and more benevolent than Liu Yu's approach.

That is, through equalizing the land, collecting taxes, strengthening the state apparatus, and strengthening government finances.

Then with the government's financial contribution, within 30 years, all "immigration, navigation, and shipbuilding" will be the goal of the entire dynasty's operation.

Therefore, with the goal of "let everyone have a piece of land of their own", immigration is carried out.

Here, immigration is a kind of social welfare and a kind of benevolence and righteousness to the common people.

Not to mention that this is taking off your pants and farting. In the end, you have to follow the "American model" that Ilyich said-that is, through the state ownership of land, land distribution, and the creation of small farmers' family farms. However, small farmers are polarized and merged and managed. Form the model of capitalist agriculture.

All it said was that a Leviathan was needed for this to work.

The question is, can a Leviathan be reformed through reforms rather than violent bloody revolutions?
Furthermore, millions of students, countless landlords, and gentry, relying on reforms to equalize the land?

Relying on the sage, relying on "true scholars" to equalize the land?
What do you think?
How is this possible?

However, compared to Liu Yu's rebellious old horse theory, this set of things sounds much gentler, doesn't it?
How much benevolence and righteousness?How much better?More moral?

The real problem is precisely here.

It's the same as taking three.

It can be said that there is nothing to think about.

It can also be said that taking three is a careerist.

It can even be said that taking three is purely deceiving, and I don't believe what I said.

The problem is that since the legal revolution, republic, monarchy, restoration, anti-restoration, wave after wave.

Smallholders are struggling and countless people are out of work.

The speed at which the bourgeoisie drank blood was so fast that the bankruptcy of the small peasant economy was unprecedented.

Has anyone stood up and spoken out for the "humiliated and damaged majority who are speechless"?

Millions of extremely poor small farmers.

Hundreds of thousands of laborers without jobs in cities.

Thousands of people who have been sucked back and forth by the remnants of financiers, bourgeoisie, landowners, and nobility but have no voice, did the Orleans Dynasty speak for them?Or did the republican Party of Order speak for them?

Lao Ma said that the question is no longer a republic or an imperial system.But this group of people is still playing tricks of "words are better than content".

At this time, a relative of the hero, who can also be understood as the French "Third Prince Zhu", stepped forward.

Talk about agriculture.

Talk about industry.

Talk about finance.

Talk about exploitation.

Talk about eradicating poverty.

Talk about labor relations.

Talk about using the agricultural income from cooperative agriculture to force industrial capitalists to raise wages.

Of the glory his uncle once brought to France.

Talking about his uncle's time, the life of small farmers must be better than now.

Talk about land annexation.

Talk about the usury plight of small farmers.

Talk about the oppression of workers.

Talk about the future.

Tansha, although it is utopian.

Talk about domestic industrial protection.

Talking about free trade allows big capital and financiers to make money, and tariffs should be used to protect vulnerable local industries.

Talk about defending the sovereignty of "the people".

Talk about [whether the republic or the monarchy.In the final analysis, no matter what form the government takes, it should care about the well-being of the people]

Talk about going to China to find thousands of consumers when there are thousands of people who have nothing in their own country.This is a disease of the brain, and the country’s prosperity and development should be resolved]

Indeed, as Lao Ma predicted: the meaning of Nasan’s existence is to let the people get rid of all superstitions about the past.The transformation of the new era is difficult to start until the superstition of past things is broken.

Twenty years after this prophecy, the battle of Sedan and the raising of the commune's flag meant that the French's superstition about the past was completely eliminated.

But, at that time.

Nazan is one of the few people in France who realizes "the power of the workers", "the power of the people when they are organized", and "the power of the silent majority".

[Unorganized masses are nothing; disciplined, they are everything.Without organization, they can neither speak nor be understood; without organization, they cannot even listen to or receive common impulses]—On the Eradication of Poverty, Chapter 2. P14.

Compared with the Blanqui on the left, who is thinking about setting up a secret society, he is much taller; he is even taller than the group of fat-bellied people on the right.

Many fanciful and provocative contents expounded in Nasan's "On the Eradication of Poverty" and "The Problem of Beetroot Pimples"...

Let alone 1840.

Even after 150 years, most people will still feel that this set of things makes a lot of sense.At least, intuitively, it seems to make sense.

In particular, this set of utopias centered on petty bourgeois utopias is extremely powerful in countries where "small peasant economy" prevails.

Because what the small peasants... want is small property, small estate ownership.These are the things that touch the heart of the small farmer most, before they are utterly devastated, before they figure out what is causing their general poverty, and sing along with the workers to shatter the old world.

At the same time, this set of things is not opposed to the development of industry and commerce, and even extremely supports the development of industry.

To some extent, it is also in this inevitable and painful stage of "suffering from the development of capitalism and suffering from the underdevelopment of capitalism".

Even if we say that this kind of "adapting to the will of the people", the final result is to intensify and intensify the contradictions between classes with stable politics and rapid development.

But isn't that the mission of this kind of thinking?

One mission is to maintain social stability, reconcile contradictions, increase the power of the country, and rapidly develop industries at the end of the small-scale peasant economy.

Another mission is to finally explode into fireworks and let the people get rid of all superstitions about past things.

This is the macro historical trend and a tool for unconscious historical progress.

As for the actual operation, does Li Yan have this condition?
In Liu Yu's view, it is possible.

Of course, it seems that the difference is quite big.

Nasan is similar to the "Third Prince Zhu" of the previous dynasty.

And Li Yan is the emperor's son.

Before taking three, I just played a few tavern riots.

And Li Yan had already fought the British in the Atlantic Ocean.

To put it simply, Nasan is an outsider in the political arena, relying not on the power of the institutional faction, but on the power of the silent majority.

And Li Yan, for the court, for the institutionalized court and the state apparatus, certainly cannot be regarded as an outsider or a marginal force.

However, Dashun has a very special place.

That is, as far as the current court is concerned, outside the regular imperial examinations and outside the small circle of the Liangjiazi aristocratic system, there are hundreds of "outsiders"-Dashun's practical school.

The bald head once gave a speech: Countless nameless Yue Wumu should be used to cast a famous Yue Wumu; countless nameless Washingtons should be used to cast a famous Washington.

Since it is said that, for the Real School, Liu Yu’s so-called “searching for talents according to the picture” means grasping according to the picture, and grasping a large number of “pictures” with similar ideas.

But these people are neither the third prince Zhu, nor the fourth uncle of this dynasty, nor the king of Qin, the chief general of Tiance.

So, is it possible to forge a famous "Ji" by relying on countless nameless "Ji"?

Is it possible to cast a spokesperson for a marginalized person by relying on countless unknown marginalized people, even if this spokesperson is not a politically marginalized person?

To put it simply.

Relying on the Northern Expedition to the Rakshasa, the Western Expedition to the Junggar, the Conquest of Japan, the South Seas, and the First World War, relying on these prestige, he played "internal and external checks and balances" and "new and old checks and balances" and played well.

So, can the prince play well?
Once the prince's conservative or even reactionary policies hurt the interests of this group of people, do these practical schools recognize your prince as a dick?
As for the trend of thought.

Now that it is said, the "crooked scriptures" of the practical school have been completed.

In fact, once the prince succeeds to the throne, there will be problems in governance, or lack of skill, or a policy similar to the rice ban in Hubei will be played out again.

Then, for these "countless unknown marginalized people", they are likely to say a word to Li Yan:

[Go ahead, Your Highness! 】

As far as the radicals of practical learning are concerned, in their eyes, this matter, or their ideal, can be realized.

VIP.

There are tens of thousands of practical scholars who were excluded from the imperial examination system and the military aristocratic system.

Among them, the landlord class is extremely small.

Small peasants, small producers, soldiers, sailors, junior officers, industrialists, colonial petty officers...

In their view, since the gentry were bound by the imperial examination system, it would be impossible to carry out the reform of land equalization.

So, they go, they don't have much to do with the land in the interior, so can't they do it?
There are hundreds of thousands of students and gentry on your side, and there are 10,000+ practical scholars on my side.

Be righteous.

Li Yan's surname is Li.

Juntian is the most benevolent government in the world.

Isn't that righteous enough?

ask for money.

Will the industrialists and businessmen and chaebols in the pioneering areas be short of money?There is no mountain of gold and silver in Dashun, and almost all the gold and silver in Dashun flow in from here.How can there be no money?
Want a gun.

Foreign expansion, Indian conquests, navy expansion, and service life benefit system have left a lot of problems. Once the old emperor dies, will the new emperor no longer maintain the Australian land allocation for veterans and retired sailors in order to save money? Annuity's huge financial hole?
Even if there is no change, wouldn't it be possible to have a "Neuburg Conspiracy"?
To the future.

Emigrate with all our strength, rely on cultivation to increase everyone's income, rely on agriculture to increase the "per capita possession" of domestic grain and meat, rely on the increase in the average agricultural population income to develop industry and commerce, rely on the increase in agricultural income to force factories to raise wages, and rely on domestic trade Complete industrial development...

From the perspective of the radicals of practical learning, how can there be no future?This, at least seems to be more feasible than Linchuan King Shu and An Hangong, right?

So, the foundation is there.

Only two questions remain.

First.

If there is a problem with the crown prince's administration in the future, these people will find Li Yan and shout [Go ahead, Your Highness! ], would Li Yan dare to take off his glasses and put on a blindfold and felt hat to look like Taizu?

the second.

Malthusian economics in trade, Listerian economics in industry, Saint-Simon's utopia in future visions, this set of "crooked scriptures", does Li Yan have the ability to pick them up and become a "interpreter"?Can this set of things be compiled into a system?

But in fact, it seems that these are two problems, but they are actually one problem.

Because the crookedness has already been accomplished.All you need to do is tie this set of things up with a thread.

Even if he can't tie it himself, and his writing is not good, wouldn't he find a shooter?
So, essentially, it's a question of,
That is, does Li Yan have the will to be a tool for this unconscious historical progress?

That is, to complete those two historical missions.

During the transition period, protect the development of industry, while trying to maintain the situation, intensify social contradictions and strengthen the power of the new class.

At the end, use the inevitable ending to break the superstition of the people of Dashun towards all old things, which is the prerequisite for opening a new era.

Including the holy king, including the heroic spirit Juntian, including the three generations, including the holy king, including the old emperor's foreign plunder, including Liu Yu's abnormal development of industry and commerce, and including the future based on the utopia of the radical school of practical learning, all of them are destroyed. .

He will summon all the heroic spirits, and finally he will personally burn all the heroic spirits he summoned and show them to the people of the world.
