Before they met, Lu Yu guessed that he would meet this Tang Court prince for the first time, whether it was a fierce confrontation or an undercurrent undercurrent, he was not afraid, he had the ability and confidence to adapt to changes, even if it was positive!

When he heard the inquiry made by the eldest prince in a very low manner, Rao is Lu Yu thought that he was calm, and he also raised his eyebrows in his heart!

Sleepy meets a pillow!

Before coming to Qingzhou, Lu Yu and Zuo Yining deduced that with their ways and methods, Qingzhou's military reform could not fail, and the only hidden danger was the vision, perspective, and values of the Tang court's high-level leaders! To put it bluntly, just as the eldest prince said, if the three princes of the current dynasty stubbornly believed that although Qingzhou's military reform was successful, in the final analysis, it was Yunjian Hou who was competing with the people for profit, then no matter how much Qingzhou's military reform was accepted and welcomed by the people, the military reform would be stopped.

Middle Earth Kyushu, even if it is the great Confucianism of the Zhoushan School Palace, even if these great Confucians really pursue the people-oriented, but in the final analysis, it is still the official standard.

When the eldest prince asked this question, Lu Yu knew that the eldest prince already had a seed of exploration in his heart! It is good to have seeds, as long as Lu Yu watered in the right way, there was no need to exert too much effort, and the last hidden danger of the military reform in Sanzhou would naturally disappear into invisibility. Even, if the most likely successor of the future Tang Court can be brainwashed in advance, the radiation capacity of Yunjian Mansion for the entire Kyushu will be enhanced.

"What His Royal Highness said is actually three questions, one is whether the wealth of the world is fixed! The second is whether the Tang Court is gathering wealth to compete with the people! Third, if the people are rich, will the National Assembly really be strong!"

Lu Yu's confident voice was as deafening in the ears of the eldest prince Li Xian as Hong Zhong Da Lu, that's right! This is not one problem, these are three questions! After the three questions were split one by one, Li Xian seemed to have understood something in an instant, but when he thought about it again, he couldn't grasp it!

Seeing Li Xian's appearance, Lu Yu smiled confidently and continued: "Let's talk about the first question first, is there a fixed number of wealth in the world? If we want to clarify this issue, we must first know what is the wealth of the world!"

"The so-called wealth, is only gold, silver, and copper money wealth? Obviously not! The house in Cloud City is just a pile of stones, but now it is very valuable! The elixir of Baicao Valley may have been only used by ordinary demon clans as a wild vegetable to satisfy hunger tens of thousands of years ago, but now it is very valuable! The sinking iron in the depths of the East China Sea is even a lump of iron at the bottom of the sea, but it is worth a fortune when it is taken back to Kyushu! More broadly, even today's population can be said to be wealth!"

So the gentlemen of the Cloud Academy summed up a truth, the so-called money is actually just a general equivalent recognized by everyone! Whether it is silver taels or copper coins, it is only a unit of counting used to define the value of an item, and this kind of thing is called money. Mr. Ming Dao of the academy discovered a large number of heterochromatic shells in the ancestral tribes of ancient times a few months ago, and he speculated that they were the earliest currency. ”

"So from a historical point of view, Middle-earth Kyushu has existed forever since ancient times, and all the valuable things on Kyushu are searched for valuation, then the wealth of the world is indeed certain!"

"But from a microscopic point of view, the osmanthus brewed in Guyue Town, Yunjian Mansion is in the local area, and every household can brew it, because there are a lot of brews, so you can buy a pot of it for only five cents in the local area! This kind of wine is light and elegant and fragrant, and it is sold to the bitter cold land of Youzhou by the Yunjian Academy, and it can only be sold for three wen and a pot is often unsalable, but if it is sent to the painting boat on the bank of the Qinhuai River, it is difficult to find a pot of good osmanthus brew for a thousand wen. ”

"So we know that from this point of view, money in the world is never static, and even money changes anytime and anywhere from person to person!"

Lu Yu's straightforward words not only attracted the eldest prince Li Xian, but even Jiujun and Kong Wojing listened to it and came to their senses! The reason is very superficial, and even without understanding it, you can understand the meaning of general equivalents and currencies, especially the problem of different price differences in different regions, isn't it just this kind of work that the caravan is doing, buying low and selling high? But no, these principles sound simple, but why has no one said it before?

Seeing a few people thoughtfully, Lu Yu continued: "The second question is whether Tang Ting's accumulation of wealth is competing with the people for profit! I think first of all, we still have to figure out what happened in the process of wealth gathering!"

"I have 100,000 taels of silver in my hand, and I came to Jiujun to buy a good bamboo leaf green, so I gave the money to Jiujun and got Zhu Yeqing. Jiujun took 100,000 taels of silver and applied to Xianwuhou to repair the Danya military camp, so the military camp took on a new look, and Xianwuhou received 100,000 taels of silver. The Marquis of Xianwu asked me to buy 10,000 sets of ordnance, so the 100,000 taels of silver came back to me! In the process, the 100,000 taels of silver did not miss a penny, but because of the flow of these 100,000 taels of silver, I had the best bamboo leaves in my hand, and the Jiujun repaired the Danya barracks, and the Marquis of Xianwu got 10,000 sets of ordnance! This is the meaning of the convergence and flow of money!

"Just like the construction of my Cloud City, at the beginning, I asked my disciples to ask my family to borrow money, and after a year, I repaid it in batches, and the money was returned, but we have a majestic Cloud City in our hands!"

"Only when money is flowing, can it play its general equivalent, and if the people of the world only learn to bury it in the cellar after obtaining the money, then we will find that we have no money to relieve the flood in the south, we have no money to put food in the famine in the north, and we have no money to buy military rations and ordnance during the border attack, so more and more vicious circles will eventually push the whole world into the endless abyss. ”

"Therefore, if Tang Ting gathers wealth and takes it from the people for the people, it will be beneficial and harmless. But if Tang Ting's accumulation of wealth is just to bury the money in another place, or even just to cover some people's private pockets, then this kind of accumulation of wealth will really compete with the people!"

"The last question, in fact, there is another saying that the country is rich and the country is strong! From these two words, I think of a question: Is there a chicken or an egg in this world? If there is a chicken, then isn't the first chicken hatched from the egg? If there is an existing egg, where does this egg come from?"

"When Mr. Hengqu and Mr. Yushan were thinking about this issue, they told me that any problem depends on the actual situation in which he is located. If there is no strong local government to command, everyone will only be defeated and eventually defeated by each of them! In that kind of place, only when the country is rich will the people be strong. In the rich land of Xuzhou and Yangzhou, the richer the people, the more taxes they pay, and the more people in the family, so the population of a government has increased, the taxes have increased, and the overall strength is naturally improving. This is what we call when the people are rich, and the country is strong!"

Therefore, no problem is absolute, and every issue must be decided according to the specific actual situation, follow the attitude of seeking truth from facts, and test all utopian dreams with practical actions! Since the implementation of the Qingzhou Military Reform Plan of the Yunjian Academy, there are outstanding points and shortcomings! Our success stems from the summing up of every mistake. ”

The eldest prince Li Xian looked at Lu Yu with burning eyes, never! No one had ever said these words to him from this angle, and even he never knew that he could still look at and understand the world of Kyushu in this way! But it was these superficial truths that made his heart tremble! Looking at Lu Yu again, there was finally a lot of recognition in his eyes.
