aside.

Prince Zhu Biao frowned.

Like Zhu Chong, he was confused and did not understand the deep meaning of Lin Che's words.

Just when he was about to stand up and ask his father, the voice next door sounded again:

"I know you don't quite understand! Let's take the Mongolians as an example!"

"The Mongols who are now settled in the Central Plains have undergone a hundred years of integration. When you see them, can you still find in them the barbaric temperament that they had when they rode horses across the grasslands?"

"These people live more like Han people than we Han people, with elegant temperament and gentle manners. They never say that they are Mongolians to the outside world, but regard themselves as Han people and are proud to be Han people."

"These people are completely adapted to farming life. If we let them go back to the grassland to herd horses, they will not go back even if they are killed!"

"It can be said that these Mongolians have been completely assimilated by Han culture!"

"Has completely integrated into the Chinese nation!"

Seeing that Zhu Xi seemed to understand but not understand, Lin Che continued:
"These Mongolians changed from a nomadic civilization to a farming civilization, and their economic structure and inherited culture have undergone profound changes."

"Looking back at the long history, it is not difficult to find that the Chinese nation has been continuously joined by new blood and formed through continuous integration."

"These people from other ethnic groups who were absorbed into the Chinese nation brought different cultures, technologies, and wealth."

"In the early Western Han Dynasty, the Han army fought with the Huns and was often at a disadvantage because the Han army was dominated by infantry at that time. Even if there were cavalry, the combat effectiveness of the cavalry was far from being able to compete with the Huns' cavalry."

"It's not that the Han people are physically inferior to the Xiongnu, it's just that the quality of the horses under their crotches is far inferior to that of the Xiongnu."

"But during the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, this disadvantage was reversed. Do you know what Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty did?"

After hearing this question, Zhu Xi thought about it seriously.

The story of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty fighting against the Huns has been told more than once by the great Confucians in the university. I don’t know if these great Confucians’ ideas are consistent with Mr. Lin’s...

Zhu Ping said cautiously:

"Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty introduced a policy of raising horses specifically and hired Huns who were good at raising horses to train war horses."

"Clap! Clap! Clap!"

Lin Che applauded and praised:

"exactly!"

"Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty implemented the strategy you mentioned and reversed the decline on the battlefield in one fell swoop."

"And the Han-Hungarian war also turned from defense to offense."

“This is where the Chinese nation is advanced, learning from each other’s strengths, embracing all rivers, and being open-minded.”

If Zhu Ping had some enlightenment, he seemed to understand something:
"So... what do you mean, sir, that we Han people should continue to absorb technology and wealth from foreign races to strengthen ourselves?"

"Integrating different races through culture!"

This statement came out.

Lin Che's eyes showed a look of relief:

"Not bad, I finally understood something."

"Some of it is correct, but not entirely."

After receiving Lin Che's praise, Zhu Ming couldn't help but show joy, bowed and said:

"Students are stupid!"

"Please teach me, sir!"

After speaking, he raised his glass and toasted to Lin Che.
Lin Che casually raised her glass and touched it with him, and said calmly:

"It's right to absorb technology."

“Absorbing wealth is wrong.”

“Is it wrong to absorb wealth?”

After hearing this, Zhu Xi chewed it several times and became confused again.

see.

Lin Che smiled:
"It is very difficult to directly absorb wealth. As I said before, those foreign races are now more sophisticated and are not so easy to fool."

"So, let's try another method."

"Absorb people who bring wealth, absorb people who can make money, and dig out the roots of these alien races."

"Let these rich foreigners come to our Ming Dynasty and do two things in their lives."

“Earn money and spend it!”

Zhu Xi: “…”

"You have to know that the upper class has access. Let these wealthy foreigners spend money to live comfortably in the Ming Dynasty society and feel the charm of our Han culture."

"In this way, if one word spreads from ten to ten, and from ten to one hundred, more wealthy foreigners will come to the Ming Dynasty to enjoy life, and eventually they will be completely assimilated into the Han people."

“Everyone gets what they need, those who can spend money enjoy it, and those who can make money pay more taxes.”

"Isn't it beautiful!"

After hearing Lin Che's words, Zhu Ming stood up suddenly, his brows filled with admiration.at the same time.

The Zhu family father and son next door also looked amazed.

however.

Before the father and son could applaud each other, Lin Che poured a basin of cold water down:
"However, we can only think about this matter, it is impossible."

"If you want to blame it, blame it. Today's emperor is reversing the course of history and has reached a dead end."

“It’s impossible for the Ming Dynasty’s economy to take off!”

"The Ming Dynasty will also perish because of lack of money!"

As soon as this word comes out.

Zhu Yuanzhang was suddenly stunned and thought:

Well said, why did you turn it on us again?
Who did we provoke?

Why are we reversing history again?

After Lin Che said this, we have all become sinners in the history of the Ming Dynasty!

Seeing his father's ugly face, Zhu Biao hesitated whether to persuade him or not.

at this time.

Separated by a wall, Zhu Xi asked the father and son's doubts:

"Mr. Lin..."

"Why did you say that?"

"Didn't you praise the current emperor's civil and military skills before? He can be called the emperor of the ages..."

"Why are you talking and becoming the king of subjugation again?"

Zhu Xi said, puzzled.

Mr. Lin's lectures are really good. When he talks happily, he makes people angry and excited.

But always at the critical moment, there will be a turning point, and the country will be destroyed at every turn, which makes people panic.

Lin Che took a sip of wine and said lightly:

"Praise is followed by praise; scolding is followed by scolding."

"Gong cannot offset one's faults, and one cannot cover up one's faults. These are two different things."

"You have to know that if the founding emperor established policies and did not realize the mistakes at the time, they would often continue."

"Even if future generations discover that there are problems, they will not easily abolish it, otherwise they will be labeled as treasonous."

"It's been like this since ancient times."

"Isn't it necessary to subjugate the country?"

"I've told you this before."

Zhu Xi sighed. He originally wanted to defend me, but what he said was the truth. There was really no way to defend him.

After thinking for a while, he stood up and bowed:

"The student did not understand what sir meant."

"Please enlighten me!"

After Lin Che poured herself a drink, she relaxed and then said:

"There's actually nothing to say about this. If you talk about it too much, it just becomes a complaint."

"There's nothing you can do about it. People's vision is limited. You can't look ahead hundreds of years. It's normal to do wrong things."

"It will be more painful to know that there are too many things but cannot change them."

"After you go out, you will continue to be your noble young master. Why are you looking for trouble?"

After hearing what Lin Che said, Zhu Xiang blushed, gritted his teeth, and said without giving up:
"You can't say that. You see, we have been learning from you for half a month, and we have made considerable progress!"

“I feel much stronger than before!”

Seeing that Lin Che's wine cup had reached the bottom, Zhu Xi hurriedly filled it with wine, pulled off a piece of chicken leg, handed it to Lin Che, and said flatteringly:

"How about you just talk about it casually?!"

"You should drink to relieve your boredom!"

“Otherwise, you’ll hear half of it and miss half of it, and you’ll feel really uncomfortable all over!”

"Sir, are you right?"

Lin Che shook her head after hearing this, took the chicken leg that was handed over, and said helplessly:

"You, you don't listen to things that are useful, but you inquire about things that are useless, endlessly."

"You are really difficult!"
