Capital has no kingdom, while the nobility has fiefdoms.

Capital has no country, only interests, and it is destined that capital will harm national interests for the sake of interests.

As the saying goes, but when the profits are huge, capital does not hesitate to start a world war and destroy the world.

With the transfer of the economic center, capital will also be transferred, but the fiefdoms of the nobility will not be transferred, and the existence of the Donghua aristocracy objectively reduces the outflow of capital.

In the era of economic crisis, the economic pressure on Donghua is far lower than that of other countries.

The nobles of Donghua are even more famous for their stinginess, and they take it as their responsibility to work hard to make money, and after making money, they are mostly used to build fiefdoms, or work with the people of the fiefdoms to harm the people of the world and obtain profits.

Your own field is the most precious, the most valuable, and the most cared for.

Later, an economist said that the aristocratic population of Donghua was only 1 percent, but they accounted for 50 percent of Donghua's wealth, but blindly investing capital in production and construction instead of consumption seemed to be detrimental to economic development, especially in times of economic crisis.

After many nobles discussed it, they thought about it, and it was true, the nobles were too rich, but they were stingy and reluctant to spend money, which was not conducive to the economic development of Donghua.

As a result, they began to spend a lot of money on the construction of various foundations, the improvement of some social welfare, and the construction of some hope projects, etc., but these projects, in fact, are also investment projects, and they are high-profit projects, and they still do not stimulate the consumption of the aristocracy.

Later, the nobles of Donghua began to build some villas, buy some calligraphy and paintings, etc., to promote consumption.

It's just a pity that the nobles of Donghua just bought some calligraphy, calligraphy and paintings, just because this is a nostalgia for the ancients; However, he is extremely disdainful of porcelain, jade and other antiques, just because this is broken copper and iron, and it is just speculation by merchants.

As for those luxury goods, the nobles of Donghua despised them to the extreme and decisively refused them, just because these luxuries would corrupt the virtues of the nobles and lead to the decline of the nobles.

Various policies to encourage aristocratic consumption have been introduced, and Donghua aristocrats have also taken action to build villas and buy some high-end consumer goods, but consumption is still not vigorous.

In the rules of the aristocratic family, it is even stipulated that it is proud to make money, and if the amount of money earned is more than the amount of money spent, it is honor; However, if the amount of money spent exceeds the amount of money made, it is blacklisted. All this led to the lack of consumption of the aristocracy.

The aristocracy of Donghua is even more low-key, most of the clansmen are rarely officials, and the commoners account for 80% of the officials, but the nobles control Donghua's army and finance, which makes the nobles and commoners restrain each other.

In the whole of Donghua, there is freedom of opinion, and you can attack a certain official, but you can't attack the aristocracy and attack the existing system.

In terms of marriage, among the Donghua nobles, there is a tradition of marriage, but there is more respect for the opinions of children, parents rarely force it, and harmony prevails among the nobles.

After all, the Donghua aristocracy has been able to stand for less than 300 years, and it is relied on by virtue and internal unity.

Although the aristocracy needs to unite with each other and need foreign aid, it also needs internal unity.

The destruction of internal unity for the sake of foreign aid is somewhat more than worth the cost.

And between nobles, marriage is more of a spontaneous choice between the next generation.

is the so-called circle of the nobility, it is so big, between the noble disciples, the acquaintance is these people, they have grown up with each other since childhood, and the so-called love is born over time, and they can gradually walk together. This kind of marriage does not need to be forced by parents at all, and many children automatically realize the marriage.

Besides, women always have to get married, men also have to leave incense offspring, and they always want men and women to be combined, they may refuse this marriage, but they can't refuse the next marriage, they may reject this noble disciple, but they can't refuse the next one.

In aristocratic circles, there are pits everywhere, and if you don't want to jump into this pit, you will jump into other pits.

may have rejected the marriage of this family, but could not refuse the other.

Parents and elders just play a leading role, and the circle is so big that it will always be connected together.

Of course, some families, in order to consolidate the relationship between each other, will match some people, but this kind of matchmaking changes greatly, some people are unwilling, but the rest of the family is willing, and among the many children, there is always a suitable pair.

And even if it is a marriage, the relationship between each other is only maintained on the surface, once there is a big conflict, whether to tear the face or tear the face, whether to fight or fight, that kind of for a certain family, to damage the interests of their own family, many noble families will not do it.

The nobles of Donghua are essentially selfish, just for the benefit of the people of their fiefdom, while other outsiders are dead or alive, and they don't care about my.

And some noble disciples will also fall in love with the commoners, and they will be sniped and hindered by their parents - but this hindrance does not come from money, from status, but from virtue.

The daughter-in-law of the nobleman and the man he marries may have no money or ability, but he must not be without virtue -- the first is that he must not commit a crime within three generations of his in-laws.

"Virtue ......"

Li Qing savored these two words and deeply realized Donghua's emphasis on virtue, which was almost to the point of perversion.

"And what's the second one?"

Ding Siyu said: "In order to maintain the purity of the Huaxia clan, a man can marry a woman from the barbarian land, but a woman cannot marry a man from the barbarian land!" ”

Although in the 21st century, the world has entered modernization, but the aristocracy of Donghua is still the most conservative group in the world, this conservatism is not institutional conservatism, not technological conservatism, but cultural conservatism.

In the eyes of many Donghua aristocrats, Africa, Europe, America and other places are still barbarian lands.

"What kind of rule is this?" Li Qing said with a smile: "I thought it was forbidden for nobles to marry commoners, and for the Huaxia clan to marry with various ethnic groups in the West, but I didn't expect it to be semi-forbidden!" ”

"This is the root of Donghua's strength!" Ding Siyu said: "Donghua's marriage system must be conducive to the development of Donghua, and blindly prohibiting it will only enclose oneself in a narrow area and trap oneself to death; However, if you blindly open up, there will be a phenomenon of Donghua barbarianization! ”

"To prevent self-isolation, to destruction; In order to prevent degeneration, there is a semi-closed marriage system! ”

"Legend has it that Emperor Taizu of Donghua said that a man from Donghua married a woman from the land of barbarians, and the child he gave birth to, following his father's surname, was the heir of Donghua, in order to integrate the barbarians and change them into China; But the barbarian man married a Chinese woman and gave birth to a child, who was called the barbarian father, and he was transformed into a barbarian! ”

"The former is to increase the population of Donghua; The latter is to reduce the population of Donghua! ”
