Xinshun 1730

Chapter 1480 Parting Warning ([-])

Mentioning the book Li said, Li Yan's heart skipped a beat, feeling extremely uneasy.

He has read books and received traditional education, so he has read "Wang Mang Biography".

[Mang played the Mingtang, Piyong, and Lingtai, built ten thousand districts for scholars, made markets, and often filled warehouses, and the system was very prosperous.To set up the "Book of Music", there are five members of Dr. Yi, and five people each.There are more than 11 professors of one art in the world, and Youyi's "Li", "Book", "Mao Shi", "Zhou Guan", "Erya", astronomy, picture prophecy, Zhonglu, Yueling, Art of War, " The text of "History" and those who inform its meaning are all in the bus.To recruit people with supernatural powers from all over the world, there are thousands of them before and after.

From the perspective of Dashun at this time, taking history as a mirror, it is inevitable to read history books from pre-Qin to Han.According to Liu Yu, it was an era of rapid productivity improvement and huge changes in social systems.

From Li Yan's point of view, although he may not be able to fully understand the relationship between productive forces and social systems, he also vaguely feels that the situation in Dashun is indeed a bit strange now.

Who did Wang Mang succeed in relying on?
Relying on... the Confucian scholars who actually had a marginal political status at the time.The real political protagonists at that time were military nobles and clans.

In other words, Wang Mang used the "marginal people" at that time.

For the scholars at that time, tens of thousands of houses were built, and those scholars were treated well.

Along with the development of textual research in Dashun, many people inevitably pointed out that most of the "Li" was forged by Liu Xin at that time, in order to legitimize Wang Mang's rise to power and reform.

Therefore, Wang Mang's restructuring is a very special "usurpation", which is different from before and after.

If you really want to make an analogy, it is really like the situation in Europe today and in the future: military aristocrats control politics, scholars are in a marginal position, they put forward political ideals, and use political ideals as a cohesive force to push people forward.

This is very different from the later purely military coups and rebellions—Wang Mang is considered the emperor elected by the "people", but the scope of the "people" is a bit small, mainly those who hold the right to speak and public opinion class.

The taste is more similar to color, leather, or something else.But it must be completely different from Cao Wei Dai Han and Xuanwu Changes.

Wang Mang's restructuring was a reactionary one.It is a complete reaction in terms of productivity and production relations, and it is also the only political practice of the Confucian retro-thinking trend after the blast furnace iron, ridge farming method, crop rotation method, and productivity of about [-] catties per mu. It proves that its thoughts are moral and eternal justice. There are merits in this aspect, but it is too reactionary in political economy.

Now, Dashun's situation is also very different from the past.

A group of "marginal people" who read books played a marginal role in Dashun's internal politics.

A group of new theories such as "Zhou Li" and "Ancient Books" with social thoughts and political ideals continued to spread.

A powerful class yearns for a system better suited to them.

A group of people uphold the elite thinking in the "Saint-Simonism" that evolved naturally from crooked scriptures, and divide the "class" at this time into the real guides, those with vested interests, and the rest, and there are many real schools of thought. This kind of elitist thinking believes that real scholars like themselves can lead Dashun forward by replacing those with vested interests.

Therefore, "writing books and setting up talks" at this time inevitably meant that Liu Zijun spread the study of ancient Chinese classics, passed on "Yi Li" and "Shang Shu", and designated "Zhou Guan" as classics to create momentum for reform.

Today, the educated and literate population with a master mentality wants political status; the bourgeoisie wants benefits and better protection of their interests; some idealists are thinking about solving the widespread poverty and the difficulties of small farmers.

Outward expansion, the fact that there are billions of land in Fusang Southern Ocean, the current situation where the contradictions between small farmers and poor people are extremely high, and the optimism that some reforms in the pioneering areas have shown results, an undercurrent is actually emerging in Dashun verb: move.

And this kind of undercurrent entered Dashun from a strange angle.

human and land issues.

The problem of people and land can be a problem of mergers, or it can deliberately avoid the problem of mergers, and it can even directly refer to the problem of not enough food per capita.

This question, and Dashun at this time, is just a cover.

When the land cannot be increased, the perspective can only be cast on mergers.For example, the old party regarded Wang Anshi's ambition as a manifestation before his fortune.Another one, the situation in the Song Dynasty, such as external expansion, is not very realistic. If you can't beat it, expansion is a hammer?

Time came to Dashun.

The contradiction between man and earth is already very scary.

The spread of corn and other crops in the southwestern region has caused the population of the southwestern mountainous area to increase dramatically; crops such as sweet potatoes and potatoes, even if they are used for disaster relief, are also "sacred objects". Maybe [-]% will die.

Therefore, the land issue has always been the biggest issue here that is most likely to attract attention.In other words, land and agriculture are the industries with the highest productivity and total output value at this time.

The original space for discussion was nothing more than limited fields and equal fields.

However, with the expansion of Dashun and the initial success of land reclamation in Fusang, the problems caused by the land as a wedge became more complicated.

In general, land issues are still being discussed.

However, the human-land problem is now more of a cover.

Immigrants increase land, so where does the money for immigrants come from?

Infrastructure construction is convenient for immigration, so where does the money for infrastructure construction come from?

To develop Fusang and relieve pressure for cultivation, how to solve the problem of boat tickets?

Immigration is used to solve the conflict between people and land. Given the population at birth, how many people have to be "sent" out in a year?Where does the money come from on such a large scale?

In the end, the core issue became a question of money.

So the land issue as an introduction naturally leads to economic issues.

When it comes to economic issues, it is inevitable to talk about such things as productivity, production relations, and class.This stuff is the same as gravity, Newton didn't "invent" gravity, he discovered it, which means that gravity existed before Newton.In the same way, things like productivity, production relations, and classes don't mean that if Dashun doesn't talk about it now, it doesn't exist at all.

In Dashun at this time, this is not a question of specific policies, but a question of which class should play the leading role.

For example, the emperor went completely crazy and wanted to "feudal relatives, use feudal clans to screen Zhou".Then, in the case of North America, it is impossible for you to make a difference between the country and the country. Even if you want to make a difference between the country and the country, then you must have Chinese people, right?
"Chinese people" went from Shaanxi to Qilu, that's easy to say.

It's hard to say that "Chinese people" went from Weihai to Jinshan.

This is not something you can run on two legs, you have to build ships, you have to prepare food and water, you have to have shipbuilding and logging tar canvas and other related industries, you have to train sailors and captains, etc.

After all, it is an economic issue.

That is to say, which one do you play? In this era, the problem is caused by the land issue and the contradiction between people and the land. In the end, it is just an introduction and a wedge. The question of class dominance.

There are many things, not to say that once a policy is released, it can be solved with a brush.

Here is an example of the "Homestead Act" of later generations in North America.The homestead law is "the sale of state-owned land to individuals".But the problem is that before this, the good land has been almost circled by railway companies, lumber mills, and financial capital.Before the Homestead Law, capital had already occupied land everywhere.It’s not to say that a man fell from the sky, Lincoln clicked on the homestead law decree online, and moved westward with one click, but the reason why he didn’t make achievements before was because the previous people were fools and didn’t click on the homestead law.

Dashun does not have a clear "Housing Land Law", but there is a very clear encouragement for reclamation in the Western Regions, not only tax-free for several years, but also seeds, so will anyone go?How many people are going?How many people can go?How many people can afford to go?It is even said that Dashun used to give policies to the real border issue, including talking about how many immigrants from the inland and how many acres of land were reclaimed, and it was for false officials, but in fact they still talked about it because it was not profitable.

Migration cost and transportation cost are issues that must be considered in Dashun.

Then, who will play the leading role, which class "led" Dashun's eastward movement, and led Dashun's resettlement and reclamation plan, this is a top priority that must be discussed.

Still the same sentence: Chinese and Chinese seem to be the same, but they are actually different.From the perspective of the "living space" and "future space" of blood-related nations, then everything they do now is just taking off their pants and farting.

No need to do anything, no need to care about anything, Liu Yu has already obtained a buffer period of several decades through war and drawing lines.Slowly and "spontaneously" migrating, the Chinese can still occupy the racial advantage in the Pacific Rim.

However, this advantage cannot solve the poverty problems, human-land conflicts, etc. of the people in the Southwest, Central Plains, Northwest, North China and other areas not near the sea in China.

Therefore, this is the reason for the surging "undercurrent" within Dashun—these people consider issues from the perspective of China, and they want to solve the survival problems of the majority of people in Dashun, a political entity. The problem is not to stand on the somewhat abstract future living space of the Chinese nation.

It is precisely because of this that there are conflicts between people and land, land issues, etc., which trigger economic thinking and discussion, and there is the question of "which class should play the leading role in this era" as Liu Yu said.

That is to say, the problem of "gambling the future on industry and commerce" mentioned by Liu Yu and Li Yan.

Now, someone needs to stand up, in a style similar to the French Physiocrats—[the Physiocratic system becomes the expression of a new capitalist society that makes its way within the framework of feudal society]—“ Inheritance" real school.

Dashun has the characteristics of Dashun, and what I’m talking about here is to take its essence. Under the current situation of Dashun, we use a set of things similar to the Physiocrats to open up a way in the old frame.

The old frame was only this big, and it always came to an end.But now, Dashun is still far from the edge of this old frame.At least in the frontiers, in the colonies, it's still early.
