Yang Shiqi was a little injured internally, and he couldn't help but say: "Lord Yang, since you can memorize it, it can be seen that you should have a deep understanding of this book, I don't know what you think?" ”

Yang Pu sighed slightly, ashamed and depressed, "As soon as this book comes out, there will be no books in the world!" The previous servant was arrogant and humiliated! ”

……

Yang Puche was completely convinced, he just wanted to see Liu Chun soon, or ask for a question, maybe explain the misunderstanding, in short, he was convinced.

There are many people who have the same view as Yang Pu, including Dao Yan and Ru Yu.

These ministers gathered in Liu Chun's study, everyone had a smile on their faces, and there was a trace of awe in Liu Chun's eyes.

The first person to speak was Ru Yu.

He pressed the scroll in his hand and said with emotion: "Since the time of the first emperor, Lord Liu advocated changing the law, and many people knew at that time that changing the law would benefit the country and the people, but in the end, it was inevitable that people would die and the government would die. Over the years, there have been many people who have shouted to change the law, but there are very few who can successfully change the law! ”

"I don't say anything else, the change has touched the interests of too many people, they are bound to fight back, once the Son of Heaven does not support it, the wind direction changes, the change will fail, the Qingli New Deal of the Song Dynasty, Wang Anshi's change of law, are all this end. In the past, I was also scared, but not long ago, His Majesty decided to completely move to the gentry, and I felt a little at ease. ”

"Now that I see Lord Liu's writings, I am completely relieved, having this book is tantamount to putting the gentry in the coffin!"

Yang Jing followed: "That's right, if the gentry don't pay grain and don't serve, the tenant farmers under their control will be separated from the whole country. The more the gentry mastered, the less the imperial court mastered, that is, the decline of organizational leadership as Lord Liu said...... Incisive, so incisive! ”

These ministers all followed Liu Chun's changes to the law, but in fact, they were more or less worried. Even if the Son of Heaven is on the side of the Dharma-changing faction, it is useless.

As long as the Confucian scholar group is still there, as long as the Confucian and Mencian Taoist systems are still there.

Sooner or later, someone will fight back.

After all, not everyone can take the world as their own responsibility. Once there is a faint monarch and a villain, the change will be ruined.

But since Yoo Chun's book appeared, things have changed.

Liu Chun found the most fundamental method for the change, and had theory as the basis.

In this way, the reformers can use this theory as a weapon to fight against conservative forces.

In the past, the conservative forces relied on nothing more than the way of Confucius and Mencius, looking for some words in their favor in the Four Books and Five Classics, or making some interpretations that were beneficial to them, and then they fought back in the name of the sages and ancestors.

In fact, it doesn't matter what Master Kong said. Confucianism is like a ship that has been sailing in the ocean for too long, no matter how clean and tidy it is when it first sets off, at this moment, the bottom of the ship has countless oyster scallops attached to it, and there is too much dross.

However, all ancient scriptures have a problem, that is, they lack rigorous logic, and they often insist on their own words, and they cannot argue about right and wrong.

Yoo Chun is highly educated, and he attaches great importance to the rigor of logic.

He started from the strength of the country, and the whole set of statements is almost impeccable, as long as people with normal brains, after reading this book again, they will agree that the change of law is reasonable.

Regardless of whether they support it or not, no one can easily slander and change the law.

This one is so crucial!

For Ru Yu, Yang Jing and others, they are not too young, and it is time to consider the name behind them. With this book here, don't worry about it anymore.

"Change the law will win!"

A few people were relieved and happy.

The old thief Dao Yan is different from them, and Dao Yan attaches more importance to the second half of what Liu Chun wrote.

"Lord Liu, as mentioned earlier, there are generations of people who have learned as a reference, and anyone who has read poetry and books will understand, but what you write next, I'm afraid that many people may not understand it, right?"

Liu Chun smiled, "Master Dao Yan is really different. I mentioned the division of labor, I mentioned the skills of individuals...... In fact, there is a problem, that is, the long-term agricultural society makes us regard many phased things as a historical necessity, and then regard them as a cycle of heavenly principles, which is not right! ”

"For example, the rise and fall of chaos, in my opinion, is the process of agricultural society from development to collapse again and again. Confucianists throughout the ages have felt that the wealth of the world is certain, and this view was correct in a certain period of time. However, once out of this period, it becomes a mistake. ”

"In the pre-Qin era, bronze tools were still the mainstay, and it was not until the advent of iron tools that the pattern of male ploughing and female weaving was promoted to the world. Therefore, the rule of three generations is not a backward era compared to what the Confucians portrayed, at least in terms of technology, it is seriously backward......"

Liu Chun kept explaining, so to speak, every word he said brought a strong shock. It completely subverted the three views of several people.

But with this book at the bottom, they don't feel so subversive, but logical, as if it should be like this.

"We have now reached a stage of technological upgrading." Liu Chun said with a smile: "In Beiping, many new workshops have appeared, and after the birth of banks, credit capital has appeared, and overseas businessmen have poured in, letting us know that there is a vast market overseas." These new things, new knowledge, when used properly, can push us into a whole new field. Just like from bronze to iron, there will be a sea change. I dare not predict that this day will not be too far away, and within the next decade or two, it will appear. ”

Everyone took a deep breath and continued to digest what Liu Chun said.

The first to wake up was Dao Yan, and he said worriedly: "Lord Liu, what you said, the old man is a five-body caster. Be completely convinced. It's just that these words may not be suitable for preaching to everyone in public, and the old man is afraid of being used by someone with a heart! ”

Ru Yu nodded, "Yes, what Yao Lao said is extremely true, now I am afraid that some Xiaoxiao will use the ideas in the book to confuse people's minds, and it will not be easy to do." ”

Yang Jing also followed: "Lord Liu, you mentioned the rise and fall of chaos, the change of dynasties, and there are also many concepts that subvert traditions, we can understand your intentions, but some small people may not understand!" ”

The worries of several people were expected by Liu Chun.

As an important minister of the court and the main person involved in decision-making, Liu Chun has no need to hide anything from them, what should be done, just how it is.

Indeed, some of his statements will cause controversy and even be used by others to make a fuss.

After all, there are too many subversions, and they will scare people to death!

"Your reminder is reasonable, and I have prepared it here, please take a look at this."

Liu Chun took out another manuscript, and the name of this book is much simpler, with only three words, "The Wealth of Nations".

After they opened it, they found that Liu Chun had almost deleted the previous half, and no longer talked about national strength, leadership, land, and people...... Instead, let's talk about just one issue, and that is the division of labor!

The division of labor can bring about efficiency improvement, and efficiency is the lifeblood of the workshop factory. More products are produced in the same amount of time, which means more wealth is created. In the competition, you can gain an advantage, and then get rich rewards.

Just as important as the division of labor is science and technology, and new technology is also the key to winning in the competition...... As an employer, you must not only focus on squeezing workers, but must learn to distribute work reasonably, carry out precise and meticulous management, and at the same time encourage workers to learn and improve their technical level.

The deleted Wealth of Nations looks much more popular than the previous version. Liu Chun also gave the example of the Daning Iron and Steel Plant to explain and make the new Wealth of Nations theory easier to understand.

After several people saw it, they all laughed, "Lord Liu is really smart. The previous edition was mainly used by courtiers, but this edition can be popular all over the world, so that everyone can study it together, wonderful, really wonderful! ”

They were discussing when someone burst in through the back door.

Zhu Gaochi and Zhu Gaochu, one of them grabbed an arm, like a chicken, and brought Zhu Gaosui to Liu Chun's study, and brought three books together.

"Master, this third child is really hopeless!" Zhu Gaoxu scolded, "Look at him, what is he doing?" He stole your old man's manuscript and sold it! ”

"Sold?" Liu Chun was surprised: "Really? ”

"This is still fake, there are two hundred copies in total, and there are only three left!"

Liu Chun frowned, "Third Highness, are you so short of money?" That's just a few hundred books! Is it worth selling? ”

Zhu Gaosui broke free from the shackles of the two brothers and argued: "Master, the disciple is for the sake of the master's fame, but the disciple doesn't want to make money!" I swear to God! ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he asked Zhu Gaochi to give him a slap.

"Master, don't listen to the nonsense of the old man, he sold a book for a thousand taels! With these 200 books alone, there are almost 200,000 taels in the account! This kid made a windfall! ”

Zhu Gaochi is indeed as careful as a hair, when he learned that the third child sold books, he secretly sent someone to understand the situation, and when he learned that he sold 1,000 taels of books, Zhu Gaochi was angry.

This third child, who earns any money, is simply out of his eyes.

Zhu Gaoxu was even more angry, "Master writes books, it's so hard, you use it to sell it for money, is it something that a disciple can do?" Don't say anything, you kid hurry up and hand over the money! ”

"Yes!" Zhu Gaochi said viciously: "Two hundred thousand taels, no less." It's better to get the money back when you go back. Otherwise, if we wait for Master's book to continue to be printed, people will hate Master when it is expensive. ”

Zhu Gaoxu was holding a fist as big as a sandbag, and he was about to beat the third child hard.

"You make money and let the master bear the name, what are you?"

After listening to his brother's words, Liu Chun said in a low voice: "You don't have to worry about buying expensive, because this edition is only five hundred copies." Next up is this! ”

Liu Chun casually handed the abridged version to his brother...... The three of them took it and looked at it carefully, all of them were dumbfounded, "Master, this is a lot worse than your original?" ”

Liu Chun said: "Step by step!" Some points of view cannot be thrown out all at once, so let's start with the economy! ”

The brothers breathed a sigh of relief together, and Zhu Gaoxu frowned and said: "In this way, these five hundred copies are a lonely version, and they sell for a thousand taels, which doesn't seem to be expensive!" ”

Zhu Gaochi also realized, "Yes, this is Master's hard work, wouldn't it be disrespectful to Master if it is cheap." ”

The two of them chattered, and Zhu Gaosui suddenly exclaimed: "Wait, according to what you say, isn't it cheap?" ”

The two men raised their fists at the same time.

"You stinky brother, see if we don't kill you!"

Zhu Gaosui was about to cry, "Wait! He hurriedly threw himself on the table, "This, isn't there three more...... Books, what about books? "No matter how he looks, is he gone?

"Who, who took it?"

Zhu Gaosui shouted to the sky and grabbed the ground, wailing loudly. The old thief Daoyan was holding three books at this moment, got into the carriage, and immediately ordered, "Hurry up, go quickly!" ”

He has to collect it well, and if he doesn't have 10,000 taels in the future, he won't sell it!

"Bookmark for easy reading"
