Poor family mother and son

Chapter 627 "Selling Books"

The emperor felt a little helpless, he had already seen that Chu Qing was pretending to be her "ignorant village woman" again.

But it is understandable. In the eyes of the emperor, a person who is so "sincere" has now become careful to hide his edge, lest he will cause trouble. Wasn't he frightened by those people in the court?

The emperor said: "Then tell me, what books cannot be sold?"

This is another way to earn printing fees, um, we have to designate a bookstore to do this, so that the money doesn't slip into the pockets of outsiders.

Also, the emperor really wanted to know what kind of useful books in Chu Qing's eyes.

"Except for the Nine Classics, all sales are prohibited!" Chu Qing said.

emperor:"……"

The emperor's first reaction was that it seemed that the bookstore would not be able to make much money, but he immediately understood what Chu Qing meant: books on astronomy, political discussions, and military affairs were indeed not for sale.

Science and technology books will increase the productivity of the opponent, and will make it impossible for Daxuan to restrict and interfere with its economy;
Astronomical prophecies, spells and divination can make speculators seek to usurp the throne;
The gains and losses of current affairs, important meetings of the court, memoirs, and military frontiers are the most important things. On the one hand, it is necessary to keep national defense secrets, and on the other hand, it is necessary to strictly prevent spies and ordinary people from destroying current affairs, shaking public opinion, and misleading the world. .

"That makes sense!" the emperor nodded.

Chu Qing: "I'm ignorant, just talking casually!"

The emperor curled his lips: "Well, ignorance! Your ignorance should be learned by the civil and military forces of the Manchu dynasty!"

Hu Hengqiu said at this time: "I feel that when it comes to the land, Voss is no worse than my Daxuan. If war is inevitable, with my current strength, I will not be afraid of him."

Alas, men are still belligerent.

What's more, expanding the territory is the grand ambition of each generation of kings, and it is the goal they pursue all their lives. Hu Hengqiu's words can be said to be right on the mind of the emperor.

The emperor conceived the political significance of the war with Voss from the perspective of "the king has no exception", such as strengthening national defense and ensuring the safety of Daxuan; for example, promoting exchanges and exchanges between various ethnic groups and regions, and so on.

Hu Hengqiu analyzed the secret investigation department's summary of intelligence from various places in the past few years, such as the conflicts among the tribes in Voss, the seemingly incompatible members of the royal family, the actual number of armaments and the composition of the troops in the Daxuan garrisons, and so on.

The two chatted like a raging fire, Chu Qing didn't speak, it had nothing to do with her, they just went into meditation.

Mind breathing comes in and out naturally, the heart and breath are interdependent, and the mind and breath follow each other without interference. This method of following the breath seems to be free and easy, but it can enhance immunity in the smallest space and minimum physical exertion.

The body is the capital of the revolution.

"Chu Qing, what do you think?" The emperor's voice came, and Chu Qing was quite resentful: "Ah?"

Chu Qing's "ah?" made both the emperor and Hu Hengqiu realize that "family affairs, state affairs, world affairs are none of my business".

Hu Hengqiu glared at Chu Qing: Are you getting fatter?With whom?This is the emperor!
"People have no long-term considerations, and there must be near-term worries. War has never happened if you don't want it." The emperor said: "What do you think?"

how can i seeIf you want to fight, fight!You are the emperor and you have the final say.

You can think this way in your heart, but you can't say it right: "Your Majesty, what is the purpose of the war?"

Don't tell me it's for peace.

"What do you think?" The emperor threw the question back to Chu Qing. He just said the political significance of the war, and Chu Qing still wants to ask such a question, does he disagree?
Chu Qing said: "It's still the same sentence, I'm just a village woman, I can't think too far;
However, when I first settled down in Wukeshu Village, the village head was kind and arranged for me to be the cook of the school. At that time, the children would compete for each other when they ate, so that they robbed more and ate more than they could. just can't eat;

Thinking back now, I think it was resources...that is, materials, and the plundering of materials is a kind of nature. Therefore, with my meager knowledge, I feel that if we start a war with the country of Voss, we must seek something;
The country of Voss is a country with a vast land and few people. It is rich in products, but its development and utilization are relatively poor. If we attack it, I will settle the score first...

Oh, I can't figure it out, so I have to ask the Ministry of Households, how much was the military expenditure in the year of the war with Donglun?

How much has the livelihood of the people been affected?Is there a fiscal deficit, and if so, how much?If not, what is the balance?
Then compare how much the treasury has been filled in recent years, and then calculate whether it is worthwhile to fight a war?
Also, if we win, what can we get?Is it a few cities or destroying Voss as a whole?At that time, is it necessary to relocate the people, and how to rule the occupied land?
Hmm... If you lose... the minister is guilty!We can't lose, we won't lose! "

"Slippery! Say what you really think!" The emperor scowled.

Chu Qing felt wronged: "Your Majesty, I can only do small business, and when I think about problems, I can only think about whether it is worthwhile or not from the perspective of doing business;
The minister said before that if I use Voss' products and people's manpower to promote and improve my living standards, and the products I publicize can meet their needs in life without requiring them to develop handicrafts...

It is to make them rely on me to declare, which seems to be similar to the effect achieved by defeating the country of Voss, right? "

Chu Qing added: "The main reason is to save military expenses."

In fact, the effect is fundamentally different. The war can change Voss’s surname to Daxuan.

Therefore, it is useless to ask Chu Qing whether to call or not, the emperor has the final say.

"But..." Chu Qing said, "Whether there is a war or not, the Nine Classics will be sold!"

Emperor: "...why?"

Chu Qing: "Improve the overall quality of their people, no matter in terms of population, history or knowledge, we should declare that we should be a great country and have the responsibility to educate all people;

Let them know that obedient people can have enough food and earn money;

We must let them know that money can only be long-term if it is calculated and spent;

To let them know that their wives and children are hot on the bed is their greatest pursuit in life..."

The emperor understood, what Chu Qing said was not to assimilate the opponent with Daxuan's culture, but to paralyze the opponent!

Chu Qing explained in a timely manner: "Education, you have to start from the shallow to the deep. I don't know anything, and I don't understand even if I go deep."

The one who doesn’t want war the most is Chu Qing. It’s okay if she’s a commoner landlady. If she’s in danger, she’ll just spend money to move. Must not be sent to the front line?

An Ansheng is still the best way to make money.

Putting aside the issue of war, the emperor and Hu Hengqiu still agreed with Chu Qing's proposal of "selling books".

As a monarch, the first thing to rule the world is the hearts of the people. The means can be a certain idea or a certain religious culture, etc., or it can be multi-pronged.

After a relatively weak and backward culture comes into contact with a relatively strong, advanced and perfect culture, it will naturally be influenced by the strong culture and then assimilated, and books can speed up this process.

As Chu Qing said, "Let Voss rely on Daxuan from body to heart."

This analogy... the emperor trembled, why is it a little unscrupulous?Could it be that I am thinking too much?
