Merchants have always been like this, and when their industry and commerce are strong, they are keen to expand their markets; When the country's industry and commerce were sluggish, they were the main force of comprador smuggling.

The biggest businessman wants to make a profit, and it is linked to politics as the highest reward for a profit.

In the turbulent times of the Warring States period in history, there were Lü Buwei Qi goods to live in, Luoyi merchants invested in Zhou Tianzi's war bonds, and in the Han Dynasty, when the Seven Kings of Wu and Chu rebelled, there were also merchants who invested in the Han central government or the rebellious princes and kings.

War can be profitable.

Horses, land, grain, jewels...... These are all realizable, and the biggest reason for Zhou Tianzi's high debts in later generations is that he lost the war and did not have the spoils of war to repay the war bonds.

The reason why Zhongshan has succeeded in recovering the country and temporarily stabilizing the country is that the Mo family has made Zhongshan Jun successful in recovering the country and has the ability to repay the loans of those merchants.

The affairs of the Song Kingdom are similar.

Sishang gathered merchants from all over the world, and there were many merchants who had given loans to the emperor's father Yue Ling and the nobles of the Song Kingdom before.

Some merchants were clear-headed, and even if they lent money to those nobles or the royal fathers, they did so through intermediaries, fulfilling the decrees of Sishang, and had an IOU for the payment of stamp duty: this IOU for the payment of stamp duty meant that tens of thousands of troops in Sishang could be armed to collect debts for this purpose.

Other businessmen played a little clever trick and bypassed the economic control of Si Shang and took out direct loans, except that the contracts with each other did not have stamp duty deeds.

Now that the emperor's father Yue Ling has been captured, and many nobles have been captured or fled or died in battle, in addition to a part of the land to be allocated, the money owed still has to be repaid.

Even if there is no cash, then the mountains and rivers of the fiefdom and the like, then they still have to be repaid.

The Song State is different from Sishang, and the set of "natural law and morality" that is destined to be "natural things belong to the people of the world" in Sishang cannot be fully implemented in the Song State for the time being, at least the Song State still has a duke, and Sishang's attitude towards the Song State is more like hoping that the Song State will become a buffer land, a vassal state and an economic colony.

In other words, the legal principle of land reform in Sishang is that natural things belong to the people of the world, and the laborers of the land after labor reform have the right of priority to occupy, and the fief of the nobles has no legal significance, which is unreasonable, so why is this land your fief?

The jurisprudence of the land reform of the Song Dynasty is that "the nobles fled and rebelled, the fiefdom was revoked, and the Song Duke and the Emperor of the Inquiry Yuan gathered public opinion and decided to auction or distribute it to the people", which is a legal principle of human law, which is essentially inherited from the sub-feudal system, but the people who are divided into feuds have descended from the scholar class to the common people.

Part of it is because the situation of Sishang and the Song State is different, the second is that the economic development of the Song State has sprouted in recent years, and many small nobles have transformed into business landlords, and the third is that this matter involves the attitudes of various countries.

In view of this situation, and in order to win the hearts of the world's industrialists and merchants, it was prepared to admit the possession of the IOU of the stamp and repay it with the land of the nobles.

However, without the IOU of the stamp duty, it will not be recognized and will not be repaid.

This can be regarded as deliberate, even if the Mo family and Qi Weihan go to war in the future, and the merchants want to lend to them, they will have to pass through Sishang. At that time, whether to manage or not to punish, to punish or not to punish, that is a matter of a decree passed by the National Assembly, but if you privately lend to them without going through Sishang, in the future they will lose or the temple will collapse, and Sishang will not recognize this IOU.

In the end of the Song State itself, what Sishang planned was to mix sand and make a loose autonomous alliance, and use the Song State as a test field to tie the hundred schools to the forefront of the competition with the princes in Sishang, and some of these things need to be operated.

Closer to Sishang, the economic germination of the Song State was already very strong: the land that should be annexed was annexed, and those who did not have land went to Sishang to either work as farmers or become workshop workers, and there was no need to move in this case for the time being.

Far from Sishang, where the aristocracy was heavily exploited and the utopian fantasies of the so-called "true egalitarians" of the peasants were swept away by the most violent means.

For the future planning of the Song State, it is divided into several large regions, and the respective schools in the region are in power, with the central government of the Song Gong and the Inquiry Yuan in Shangqiu, but the centralized power of the Song State should be weakened as much as possible, and the Mohists should control the military power and standing army of the Song State, and each autonomous region will pay a certain amount of military taxes and taxes according to the population and land situation, and the rest will be tossed at will.

The bills stamped with stamp duty were mainly concentrated in some aristocratic fiefdoms in the central and western Song Dynasty, and the number was not very large, and the Mo family could lend a sum of money to the peasant family to repay the debt where they wanted "real equality", and then slowly repay the Mo family with agricultural products.

In the rest of the country, because other families do not have such a fantasy except for the real egalitarian faction of the peasant family, then they can take out a part of the confiscated land to pay off the debt, and let the Song State complete the transformation as soon as possible: the model of combining yeoman farmers and large-scale operating farms will force more people to run to Sishang, and make the Song State a raw material and agricultural product production area in Sishang, as well as an emerging market for industrial and commercial goods.

As long as this can be done well, the Song State can maintain the existing stability, and Si Shang can use more thoughts, troops, energy, and cadres for the Chu State.

The Song State is located in the middle of the world, the world is determined by the Song State, and it doesn't matter if the Song State has a Song Gong for the time being, if there is no Son of Heaven in the world, there will be no Song Gong in the Song Dynasty; On the other hand, if there is no Song Gong in the Song Dynasty, there may not be no son of heaven in the world.

Sishang, as the largest owner of capital today, had already educated businessmen a few years ago on what "reasonable competition" was, and several big businessmen who engaged in grain speculation and cotton speculation were ruined by Sishang's abundant financial and material resources and by the means that were most "in line with market competition," and the rest of them also opened their eyes to know what things could not be moved and what things could be moved.

Nowadays, the means of Sishang are more refined, and the attitude of the merchants is becoming more and more innovative, at least the laws and regulations on the side of Sishang are based on people, and there are laws to follow, which is better than the princes elsewhere.

Shijia Dolphin understands the meaning of suitability, and also understands the meaning of asking the attitude of the businessman, which is nothing more than to look at the attitude of the businessman, which can be regarded as a rehearsal.

The current situation is that the Wei State is waving its flag and shouting in the distance, which has the meaning of calling on the princes to interfere with the Song State to jointly join the alliance; Sishang's side also mobilized as never before, shouting the slogan that if all countries interfered with the Song Dynasty, the Mojia would definitely sacrifice the last Mo for the righteousness.

There are not many people who really understand the situation, and most people see the prospect of a big war breaking out, and as long as the businessman still has faith in Sishang, and has the idea of supporting and eager to make profits, then this is the biggest victory for Sishang.

The basic plate of the soldiers in Sishang was a large number of new homesteaders in Sishang, and the call of the Shu Peasants and Industry and Commerce Alliance to oppose the aristocracy was carried out only because of the attitude of the merchants, not only the merchants of Sishang, but also the merchants of Qi, Chu, Yan, Han, Zhao, Wei, Qin, and other countries.

The farmer's world, unless he is in the army, is within a hundred miles; The world of merchants is Southern Chu and Northern Yan, and they are a great help outside of Sishang that the Mo family can rely on.

If the businessmen temporarily support the current situation, it is foreseeable that even if there is a real fight in the future, the businessmen will choose to stand on the side of Sishang.

As for whether it will last, it is not whether Sishang's morality is desirable, but whether Sishang can bring the dawn of victory.

He said: "I think so, gather those IOU holders who have paid stamp duty through Si, and the city will come forward to talk to them. On the Song side, let us say that their debts have to be repaid. ”

"Sort out the location of the specific borrower's fief, and pay attention to the fact that the fief cannot repay the debt, it can only be divided, and only the private land of those nobles can be used."

"The rest can be talked about slowly. The affairs of the Song Kingdom can also be resolved slowly. It mainly depends on the attitude of each country. ”

"If the princes are really determined to interfere, it will be simple, the direct law will naturally benefit the world, and the Song and Si will be treated equally, so there is no need for two systems."

Speaking of the attitudes of various countries, someone stood up and said: "News from Chu that some of our people have been detained and placed under house arrest in Chu State. ”

"It's okay in Chen Caiyingdu and other places, and the king of Chu didn't give an order. But in some fiefdoms of the Chu nobles, the comrades we sent to survey and map and to carry out public activities were detained. ”

"How should this matter be solved?"

Shi sighed and said, "The state of Chu is now surging with an undercurrent. The king of Chu changed the law, touching the interests of the nobles and feudal kings. The aristocratic feudal monarch actually hopes that the king of Chu will start a war with us, and if we want to start a war, we need internal stability, and we must compromise with the noble feudal monarch. ”

"I'm not afraid of anything else, I'm afraid that the king of Chu doesn't want to fight, but the feudal king wants to fight, and when the time comes, kill our people, and try my best to prevent our reconciliation with the king of Chu."

"It's not impossible to force the bottom up, but force the war. This matter really needs to be resolved as soon as possible. ”

Under the sub-sealing system, the prototypes and variants on the following grams have always existed, which is exactly what Shi is worried about.

As soon as the words fell, the leader of the self-suffering and extreme faction in charge of the supervision and inspection department after the grandson smiled and said: "The giant is too worried, this is also simple." ”

"To benefit the terror of the world, to fight against the terror that afflicts the world."

"Which nobleman dares to make a move, then we will make some big moves, children, women and children are not guilty, and do not kill the whole family, but the person who does it and the person who orders it, none of them will survive."

"Kill one person for the benefit of the world, of course you can kill it. If he makes a move, we will have to compromise for the sake of the overall situation, which will inevitably make the princes of the world forget that our Mo family used to be a knight who violated the ban with martial arts, and also forgot that we had the reputation of assassinating the King of Chu Shengheng on our backs, and we would have no scruples about killing us when the time came. ”

Of course, this matter still depends on the attitude of the king of Chu. Whether the king of Chu is hesitating, or he is forced by the pressure of the nobles and feudal lords to directly say that he will not interfere, the king of Chu must express his position on the matter of detaining our people. ”
