Chapter 940: One, Two, Three Steps
Tang Yi is by no means alarmist, policies and regulations, even if they can't be ahead, at least they must keep pace and take a slow beat.....
It's going to kill you.
......
The Great Song Dynasty is in an era of change, the rise of overseas trade, the continuous emergence of new industries, while bringing unlimited opportunities and possibilities to the Great Song Dynasty, there are also infinite crises.
In the conversation with Master Fan and Jia Xiangye just now, Tang Yi was just thinking of some possibilities in a hurry, and when he went back to think about it, the more he thought about it, the more frightened he became, and the more he thought about it, the more scared he became.
Because, the farm alone is far more than the shortcomings he and Lao Jia stated.
Say, for example, child labor.
Yes, there is no concept of child labor in this era of the Great Song Dynasty, but what Tang Yi did in this era has slowly pulled the Great Song Dynasty out of the quagmire of the primitive economy.
The so-called advanced civilization......
In fact, the Great Song Dynasty is undergoing the advancement of civilization, and inevitably, the evil of capital will soon be revealed.
Once it is not handled well, then this giant beast will turn into a destructive force that tramples everything before it has time to be trained.
Child labor, blood and tear factories, exploitation, oppression, if those in power are slow to react, without any binding force, capital has no morality to speak of, and will naturally lose more and more humanity due to the continuous integration and evolution of capital.
The people are ignorant, they don't know what kind of greed will breed if they send their children to the workshop now; They don't know how bad an employment relationship can develop without the protection of the law.
And when it develops to an uncontrollable extent, Tang Yi hardly dares to think about what new contradictions will erupt between the toiling masses and the capitalists, between the emerging economic organizations and the political power.
No one knows whether there will be a "French Revolution" in the Great Song Dynasty in the 11th century, let alone whether it will collapse from the inside before the Great Song Dynasty dominates the world.
At this moment, even Tang Yi had a trace of timidity, and then he had an impulse to put the capital monster back in the cage......
It's so hard to control!
......
Now, this era has been changed beyond recognition by Tang Yi, except for familiar names, there is no intersection with the original trajectory.
Tang Yi found that the advantages of his traverser were getting less and less, and the remaining capital was just a little bit of foresight.
He really didn't know if this little foresight was enough to push Da Song forward.
At this time, Tang Yi admired more and more those great men in later generations of China.
Only when you are really in the torrent can you understand how amazing and magnificent those people are, how majestic and strategic, and how they can play the capital monster in an environment that is not suitable for the growth of capital at all.
Tang Yi now even gave birth to the same idea as later generations of Westerners:
"They.... How, exactly? ”
That's right, that's the idea!
As a matter of fact, the so-called socialism is only an ideal country, and it is truly practiced and has so many drawbacks that it is impossible to overcome.
Just as the so-called politicians and economists in the West predicted in later generations, a one-party system of government is prone to breed corruption and dictatorship, is more prone to paranoia, and cannot maintain long-term vitality.
Moreover, economic development is in fundamental conflict with its central ideology, which inevitably leads to decay.
In fact, Mao Zi used this set of things to drag the shelf.
The form of government that once occupied half of the world also became either left to fend for itself or became a dictatorship of the military junta over time.
However, only in China, the West not only did not drag her down, relying on Yellow, but dragged the West to start a great recession on its own.
"How did Huaxia do it?"
No one knows how they did it.
I don't understand how Huaxia continues to maintain its vitality and open all the way.
A country has cohesion, centripetal force, upward force, vitality, and the most important thing is that it is not dictatorial, but dares to claim to be a "home-country machine".
Looking at the future generations, there is only this one, a stable one.
From a philosophical point of view, this is a paradox.
Tang Yi now thinks the same as those Westerners....
He thought about learning this, learning that, learning about constitutional monarchy, learning about the Industrial Revolution, and even thinking about learning from the little devil Meiji Restoration, and in the end....
I found that the best thing is our own people's open road.
However, it is so difficult to learn!!
Where do you start??
......
——————————
I struggled all night, and I didn't completely straighten it out, but I did have some ideas.
Therefore, early in the morning, before dawn, Master Fan and Jia Xiangye were pulled out of the bed by Tang Yi.
"We're so tired like this!"
The two old men were already confused, and they were even more confused by Tang Yi's clueless sentence, and they looked at each other, both of them were dazed.
"Why are you so tired?"
"Piecemeal, tear down the east wall and make up the west wall." Tang Yi had dark circles under his eyes, but his eyes were firm and abnormal.
"There is always a problem to solve, but there is no long-term plan."
Jia Changchao was even more puzzled, "The government has always been like this, isn't this how it came over?" ”
The imperial power of the world, to put it nicely, the world is the emperor's. To put it mildly, the emperor is the patriarch, and those of them who are officials are miscellaneous servants, and the meaning of existence is to help the emperor and the people solve problems.
However, Tang Yi obviously didn't approve of it, and slowly shook his head.
"There should be a planning ......"
On the other side, Fan Zhongyan was silent, since Tang Yi said so, it means that he already has a plan in his heart.
"Da Lang, you might as well tell me what kind of planning you have."
"Second elder, look!"
Tang Yi came to the spirit and unfolded a map of mountains and rivers in front of the two.
"This is where the Great Song Dynasty is located, the Central Plains, those overseas enclaves don't care for the time being, just talk about the Central Plains."
"Hmm." The two nodded. There is a red line on this map, which divides the Great Song Dynasty into two just north of the Yangtze River.
I saw that Tang Yi only focused on the north of the red line, "According to the actual situation of the Great Song Dynasty now, the northern region is the main grain producing area, and the south has not yet been developed outside the mountains, except for Bashu, Jinghu, Jiangnan, that is, along the Yangtze River, there is no grain." ”
"But what..."Tang Yi changed his words.
"Nowadays, the woolen spinning in the north and the cotton that is being planted are slowly rising, and the Yangtze River is covered with a dense river network, and the shipping business is extremely developed, so that in the near future, it is almost foreseeable that cotton and wool textiles, as well as shipping labor, will inevitably snatch agricultural labor."
Fan Zhongyan and Jia Changchao frowned when they heard this, this question, Tang Yi had already said it yesterday, but looking at it from the picture, it was much more immersive.
"This is what Da Lang said about long-term planning?"
"Only partially." Tang Yi continued. "And that's just the beginning..."
The so-called planning is not to take one step at a time, but to take one step at a time to see five or ten steps.
"Don't talk about it yet." Fan Zhongyan pointed to the mountains and rivers with a serious expression. "How do you solve this danger of the struggle between workers and peasants?"
Tang Yi said: "This problem alone, as long as we have foreseen it, it is actually very easy to solve." ”
"On the one hand, we can reduce agricultural taxes, give farmers more benefits, and try to retain farming labor."
"On the other hand, we can vigorously support the agricultural reclamation outside the mountains and open up new grain production areas."
"Hmm." Fan Zhongyan nodded.
"Feasible!!"
The agricultural tax of the Great Song Dynasty has been surpassed by the commercial tax several years ago, and judging from last year's tax revenue, the agricultural tax even accounted for only 30%.
In this case, even if the farmers are lightly endowed, it is not unacceptable.
"And what's next?"
"What's next?" Tang Yi smiled lightly. "Let's see!"
Referring to the mountains and rivers again, "the Yangtze River, and even the coastal states, the rise of shipping will inevitably lead to the prosperity of surrounding commercial goods." ”
"It is not difficult to imagine that in the future, those workshops that manufacture daily necessities and porcelain and tea department stores will inevitably move closer to these places."
"Along the Jianghuai, the coast will become the commodity distribution center of the Great Song Dynasty, from where all kinds of goods from small needles and threads to large vehicles and ships will be transported to the whole Song Dynasty, and even the whole world!"
"At this time, the imperial court should adapt measures to local conditions, distinguish the manufacturing industry, concentrate on construction, and make plans for each state and government, so as to maximize cost savings and form a scale."
"And the North!" Tang Yi didn't stop for a moment.
"At any time, the growth of the cotton wool industry will become more and more concentrated and more and more grouped!!"
"Do you two know what the consequences of this will be?"
“.....”
The two stopped talking, looking at the map in a daze.
What are the consequences? The consequence is that the dotted textile workshops are dotted with big fish eating small fish, and small fish eating shrimp, constantly merging and growing.
At last...
In the end, countless textile cities and textile towns were formed.
"What does Da Lang mean is that we need to prevent it early and stop this disorderly annexation?"
"No!" Tang Yi's answer was unexpected by the two.
"We're not going to stop it, we're going to help it."
Seeing that the two old men still didn't understand, Tang Yi had to explain: "The focus is not integration, the focus is on the town!" ”
"The textile industry will inevitably create more and larger towns, completely out of agricultural towns!"
"And this is a good thing for the imperial court, which uses commercial taxes as its main income, so why not?"
When there is enough grain to eat, the peasant households should be lured to the city and the urbanization of the Great Song Dynasty should be accelerated, so that the commercial tax will be higher and higher.
The proportion of agricultural taxes will be further reduced, and in the end, it will not be a problem to exempt agricultural taxes or even reverse them.
So the question is, if farmers do not collect taxes on their land, and even have subsidies, and this group, which is the backbone of the country no matter what age it is, has no worries, then is there anything not easy about stability?
"So...."
Tang Yi turned his head, "On the first question just now, the imperial court can't just reduce taxes. ”
"On the one hand, tax cuts, and on the other hand, food prices are controlled."
"The imperial court should control the profits from farming within a scope that can not only lure some people to the towns, but also retain some people to ensure grain production."
“......”
“......”
The two old men were dumbfounded, and finally understood that this was what Tang Yi said about macro control.
Use policies to guide the people.....
Jia Xiangye subconsciously asked: "Then what about the next step?" ”
I heard Tang Yi answer indifferently:
"First sell the small commodity department stores of the Great Song Dynasty to the whole day, and use cheap labor and quantity to accumulate wealth for the Great Song Dynasty and the people, and this stage mainly relies on the imperial court and Guanlan folk studies."
"Folk studies?" The two were puzzled.
"The second elder forgot? There are a lot of good things and good technologies in folk studies that have not been used. ”
"And what's next?"
"The next step is the rise of cities and towns, which will inevitably lead to the large-scale construction of urban real estate, roads and bridges, and water conservancy."
"It's expensive, but... This is all a heavy industry!! ”
"With such a huge demand for the entire Central Plains, cement, road and bridge projects, as well as corresponding equipment, have become urgently needed."
"At that time, there will be no need for the imperial court to go out, and the people will try their best to improve technology and equipment in order to save money faster and more efficiently."
"When the towns and roads are almost built, it is estimated that our Great Song Dynasty will also be able to form a complete set of heavy industry system."
Tang Yi's face was full of longing......
The Great Song Dynasty is still a period of lack of technology, and I don't know what the so-called heavy union looks like after going through this.
Of course, it will certainly not reach the level of later generations, but ....
Enough to look forward to, right?
Even if only one gear set was built in the end, it would be epoch-making.
"And then ....."
Tang Yi smiled deeply, "With money!" ”
"Ships and armies supported by heavy industry!!"
"Then it's time for us to go out into the world with the money and the broadsword."
"Even if we don't make achievements in Europe and West Asia now, just by buying it with money, we can buy out the world!"
"Buy a big Song full picture!"
“......”
“......”
Fan Zhongyan was speechless for a while.
Jia Ziming was stunned for a while.
"This...."
This sounds a bit mysterious, but how...
How does it make so much sense?
"And then?"
Jia Xiangye really doesn't believe it, Tang Yi's head has almost come up with a hundred years, right? He doesn't believe that there is a next step for this demon?
Sure enough, as soon as Jia Xiangye asked this, Tang Yi really scratched his head in embarrassment.
"What's next...."
"I haven't thought about it yet..."
Well, it's not that I haven't thought about it, it's that I don't have to copy it.
The later generations of Huaxia have only come to this point, this shameless guy does not have the wisdom of Grandpa Mao and Grandpa Deng, and it is not easy to see through the number of steps that others have already taken.
Let him create his own ...... It's a bit hard.
But then again, will it work?
In Tang Yi's opinion, there is really something feasible!!
First of all, the humanistic environment of the Great Song Dynasty was very good, and the people and officials were relatively easy to accept.
Secondly, the world environment is also good, and the only threat to Da Liao has been choked by the Great Song Dynasty.
The European market, as well as the Arab market in West Asia, has also been opened, and there is no such complicated and cumbersome trade agreement as in later generations.
......
And the current Great Song Dynasty does not have the difficulty of making it as strong as the later generations of Mi Kingdom, the only difference is that the world in the eleventh century had to cultivate the market by the Great Song Dynasty itself.
However, the Great Song Dynasty only had a population of more than 100 million, which was not as large as that of later generations of China, but in this undeveloped 11th century, 100 million people were enough to enjoy the "demographic dividend".
This two or three steps....
It should be done, right?
......

Let's admit it to myself, this chapter is a bit shameless.
The water is very....
In fact, Cangshan just took advantage of the territory of the Great Song Dynasty to understand the current affairs....
But.... Tomorrow's end, it could be a",
