In the ward of Gangnam Hospital.

Jiang Xueying was keenly aware that Zhao Hao seemed to have a different opinion on Li Zhen's article, so he asked softly: "Then dare to ask my brother, what kind of court do you want to have?" ”

"......" Zhao Haoxin said, of course I hope for socialism, but the conditions cannot be met.

After a moment of silence, he took a deep look at his most trusted assistant and felt the need to make her clear what he was thinking. so as not to go the other way back in the future.

So he closed the book and said in a deep voice: "I hope that there will be a strong state apparatus to escort us!" ”

"Oh?" Jiang Xueying was stunned, she didn't expect that her views on her brother would be so different.

"Girl, we can't just focus on Jiangnan, a place with a big palm." I listened to Zhao Hao's serious words:

"The Ming Dynasty has two capitals and thirteen provinces, but it is not just one Jiangnan. Without a strong state apparatus, how can we make up for what is lacking? Blindly emphasizing the 'supreme inaction' can only make the rich richer and the poor poorer. ”

"This is what the younger sister didn't expect, or the elder brother saw it comprehensively." Jiang Xueying showed a sudden expression. "We really can't just look out for ourselves."

"If we look a little further, as I have repeatedly emphasized, the world has entered the Age of Discovery. The Spaniards and Francs divided the world, and the Dutch, British, and French were ready to move. If we miss this era, the Ming Dynasty will always be in a passive situation, and the glory of the Heavenly Empire will never be restored! ”

"And the Ming Dynasty's many stubborn diseases that seem to be terminally ill will have hope of healing as we enter a new era. How can the Ming Dynasty last for another 200 years, 400 years or even longer? Only to make yourself great again, the sun and the moon are in the sky, and the continents and oceans will shine forever, and there is no other way to go! ”

"We're already behind in this competition and we have to catch up. But it's not just about trying to open up the sea. Zhao Hao cut the railway:

"Our ships must have not only cargo, but also artillery and muskets. We need to have well-equipped and well-trained sailors, and the support of the government and the opposition at home, to protect our shipping routes and drive those Tessians out of our sphere of influence! ”

The more Zhao Hao spoke, the more excited he became, the whole person seemed to be shining, and Jiang Xue was drunk when he saw it.

This is what she is most obsessed with Brother Zhao. She felt that Zhao Hao was neither a literati nor a businessman, but an idealist who would 'be the best'!

No amount of wealth can be exchanged for the ideal brilliance, which makes people dizzy and fascinated, and they are willing to follow in his footsteps.

~~

As Zhao Hao said, the Age of Discovery was never the free trade or market competition that later generations talked about, but the state capitalism with artillery.

And what about the Age of Discovery? The British Empire, which gave birth to the Industrial Revolution in another time and space, was not the free, enlightened and honest country that later generations portrayed.

On the contrary, it is a bureaucracy and a powerful state with explosive military spending, non-stop wars, a policy of intervention, high taxes, high debt, and extreme protectionism...... It is also definitely not a democratic country.

It was not until it completed the Industrial Revolution and became an empire on which the sun never set that it suddenly advocated liberalism. The aim is nothing more than to fool the backward countries that follow his example, abandon trade protection, open their domestic markets, and become dumping grounds for their goods. and destroy their national industries so that they can continue to dominate the country.

With these lessons learned, how could Zhao Hao commit infantile disease again?

Therefore, he knew very well that what the Ming Dynasty needed in this era was to protect the development of industry and commerce internally, and to smoothly allocate the country's resources. Externally, it can protect territorial security and protect a strong regime that expands overseas.

It seems that this is very similar to the state capitalism led by Comrade Lenin, but the system of a few hundred years later cannot be applied to the Ming Dynasty today.

So Zhao Hao didn't dare to say which system was most suitable for the Ming Dynasty. He can only try to do what he can to promote the development of the Ming economy.

Isn't it said that the economic base determines the superstructure? Then let the system of the Ming Dynasty evolve with the development of the economy, and see if it can endogenously produce a set of systems that meet the requirements of the times.

That day, Jiang Xueying asked him one last question. "Big brother believes in the imperial court, will it become what you want?"

"......" Zhao Hao looked out the window silently, where there was a plum tree that bloomed the first red plum of this winter.

This kind of thing has never been able to pack a ticket......

~~

It was the end of winter, the sky was overcast, and the small north wind was whirling, even in the south of the Yangtze River, it was cold enough.

Kunshan County Yamen room.

Uncle Yu is hiding in the concierge with a few fellow Beijingers.

Their group of house slaves who followed Gongzi to the south are now scattered all over Suzhou to take care of things.

Some help their sons take care of their private business...... It is mainly the school under the name of Singularity Investment, the weapons and steel research institutes, etc., which have no business to do with Jiangnan Group.

Some of them work in the headquarters of Jiangnan Group or various companies, in addition to doing their duty as employees, they also secretly act as the eyes and ears of the son, in case someone deceives them and blinds Zhao Hao.

There are also people like Yu Bo, who run errands in the county government and help Zhao Erye run around.

Therefore, it is rare for everyone to wait for leisure, and this time it happened that seven or eight people returned to the county office, so they gathered in the gatehouse and chatted about idle chatter.

A barbed wire fence rests on the charcoal basin, and a dozen sizzling chicken wings are roasted on it.

Qi Ren, the director of the Ordnance Research Institute, took a bristle brush and brushed the seasoning on the chicken wings, and the fragrance made the villagers' mouths water.

Yu Bo held the teacup and joked: "This thing is too convenient to use, but if you let Gongzi know, Lao Qi, you let the blacksmith who plays the gun pipe help you build the barbecue grill, I'm afraid I will have to put you on the shelf for the test." ”

"What do you say? We're all playing this for scientific research. Qi Ren pouted and said, "This is all part of the test, do you understand?" ”

"Nonsense, roasting chicken wings is also a test?" Naturally, the villagers didn't believe it.

"Of course. Don't underestimate this barbecue grill, this wire on it can't be made anywhere. Qi Ren said triumphantly: "Have you seen such a soft, tough, and rusty wire that is not easy to rust before?" ”

"yes, I haven't." The villagers suddenly said: "If you change to another iron frame, you will have to rust if you use it once, and you can't use it a second time." ”

"Hehe, you haven't seen much." Qi Ren said and stopped: "But I can't tell you, otherwise it will be leaked." ”

"you!" The villagers chirped one after another: "I don't think you know." ”

"Eating chicken wings can't stop your mouth." Qi Ren rolled his eyes and said, "Okay." ”

"I'm coming, I'm coming." The villagers snatched up the grilled chicken wings.

Yu Bo finally grabbed one, and when he was blowing hot air to cool it down, he saw his cousin Yu Xu, who was staring outside, coming in from outside.

"Brother, there is an old man outside who claims to be our old lady."
