Bandits are like fire, not to be conspicuous?

When Yingzhu left, he was still pondering this sentence in his heart.

The point of this statement is the word "eye-catching".

And can this reflect Ju Zizhou's personal character?

He doesn't know, but generally speaking, the characters who desire to be "eye-catching" are people who are flamboyant, wealthy, and powerful.

Ying Zhu felt that Ying Zheng could try to control Ju Zizhou in this way.

After Yingzhu left, Yingzheng came over: "It's not quite right." ”

"What's wrong?" Ju Zizhou asked.

Ying Zheng couldn't say what was wrong.

But he intuitively felt that Ju Zizhou's previous remarks were problematic.

It was based on what he had learned, coupled with his instincts that had been forged by his sensitive personality, and he trusted his instincts.

Ju Zizhou stared at Ying Zheng: "Do you really think there is a problem?"

"That's what I thought." Ying Zheng nodded.

"Is there really a problem?" Ju Zizhou's tone changed, with a hint of teasing.

Ying Zheng was asked by him like this, and he was a little unconfident.

"There should be......

"Do you want to think again?" Ju Zizhou asked in a consultative tone.

Ying Zheng gritted his teeth: "It's just that there is a problem!" ”

His character does not allow him to make too many concessions.

Ju Zizhou nodded with satisfaction: "Your feeling is not wrong, there is indeed a problem!" ”

"But Senior Brother hopes that if you feel that there is a problem in the future, you will use what you have learned to find out the problem specifically!"

"And you need to be more confident!" Ju Zizhou said: "Because I may mislead you, and others may also mislead you!" ”

"This kind of misdirection can't even be said to be deception - just like what I just said to Qin Wangzhu, I didn't deceive him, I just used a little bit of words to mislead him!"

"What words?"

"It's just a little bit of a misleading number." Ju Zizhou smiled: "King Qin doesn't know much about ordinary people and ordinary people's lives. ”

"Because he has been detached from his roots for too long!"

"He didn't know that ordinary farmers eat dry rice when they are busy and porridge when they are free, and the sauce and vinegar are often brewed by the villagers, and they will not be full of two meals."

"And most importantly, they are often forced to eat raw food."

"So......" Ying Zheng nodded: "So that's the case!" ”

"In fact, their cost of survival is not as high as I calculated, but if you don't say a little higher, you can't mislead King Qin." Ju Zizhou said.

So there is nothing wrong with the fact that the "poison in the country" is "the grievance of the people", right? Ying Zheng asked, "I don't think there's any problem." ”

The so-called "poison in the country" is indeed "popular grievances", and there is nothing wrong with it. ”

But the impact of the survival problem is actually very small, and the main problem I hope you will remember for a lifetime - this is an inevitable problem caused by the asymmetry of power and responsibility, not an economic problem, but a "distribution problem" hidden behind the economic problem! ”

"Assignment issues?" Ying Zheng wrote down the word.

"If you have a good enough memory...... Ju Zizhou said, "You should remember the data of Zhao Guo in the Handan Investigation, right?" ”

"How many people are in their household?"

"Commoners often have families ranging from eight to fourteen!" Ying Zheng replied immediately.

The "Handan Survey", before he took it out and dedicated it to King Qin, he had already memorized it, and such data was at his fingertips at this time.

"How much land does a family own?"

"Poor peasants range from 16 acres to 87 acres of land."

"The middle peasants have 88 acres of land to 166 acres of land."

"Rich peasants range from 167 acres to 800 acres of land."

"Did you find a problem?" Ju Zizhou asked.

"If you don't eat dry rice at every meal, you can barely eat enough above the middle peasants!" Ying Zheng was stunned: "Why? ”

"Zhao Guo can't help drinking, can't help private fights, can't help private groups fight each other."

"In the land of Yan Zhao, there are a lot of rangers!" Ju Zizhou smiled: "Because there are many people who are extremely poor, there are also many people who have lost their land and even become slaves!" ”

"Relying on the power of the nobility alone, you can't control the vast areas outside the city!"

"They may be able to requisition the houses of the people in the wilderness, as we have encountered on the road, but they cannot force them to pay taxes, and they cannot force them to serve the king of Zhao and the nobles of Zhao."

"Not because they don't want to take care of it, but because they can't! They are not capable! ”

"The basic plate of the nobles of Zhao State is the group of people who are in the "middle peasant" dynasty! ”

"Because of the Zhao state, those people received so much land and other resources that were enough to feed and even detached from actual production."

They are the real "vested interests" of Zhao State! ”

"So they support Zhao Guo."

"And this part of the people ...... It's very few! Ju Zizhou said: "The land of Zhao is concentrated in the hands of all kinds of large and small nobles. ”

"Below the aristocracy, the population above the middle peasant dynasty is actually not much."

These people are the "backbone" of Zhao and the main source of conscription. ”

"In the battle of Qin and Zhao, this group of people was the main source of strength for the Zhao State."

They enjoy the benefits of the existence of the "Zhao State", and therefore need to defend the existence of the "Zhao State" in order to defend their own interests. ”

In this, interest is "right", and service is "responsibility". ”

But most of the "Zhao people" do not enjoy the "right" to be enough to feed themselves, so they are actually not uncommon to have enough "right" to feed them, so they do not need to be responsible for the "Zhao State" at all! Because those people are not the vested interests of the "Zhao State" at all. ”

"Even if you are a "Zhao person", but "Zhao State" is not their country, so if you tear your throat and let them love the country, they can't love it, and if you force them to die for King Zhao, they won't sell their lives! ”

"And the Qin State is different! The state of Qin is slightly fairer. ”

"In addition to the "lowly status", the Qin people have a way to obtain more land and wealth, although it is inevitable that there will be unfairness and excessive concentration of land, but ......"

But the "rights" enjoyed by the "Qin people" are equal to the "responsibilities" they have to bear? Ying Zheng asked.

Ju Zizhou glanced at Ying Zheng with disdain.

The "rights and responsibilities" of the Qin people are not equal! Ju Zizhou said: "The Qin law stipulates that the "responsibility" that every Qin person needs to abide by is fixed, but the "power" is divided into "twenty ranks" and issued by the system. ”

"Although it is slightly better than Zhao Guo, it is not much better."

This asymmetry between "power" and "responsibility" is the root cause of public discontent. ”

And what "equal rights and responsibilities" need is as "fair" distribution as possible! Ju Zizhou said: "I don't know how much grain is produced per mu in Qin, but it is definitely more than that of Zhao. ”

"But even so, the Qin people who don't have a title are still having a hard time."

What will happen if they obey the corresponding "responsibilities" and do not get the "rights" they deserve? ”

Ying Zheng was speechless, and the little pride that had just risen in his heart suddenly disappeared without a trace.

"You should have calculated...... In fact, the grain of Zhao is not small...... Based on the data I gave, you can figure it out...... The food is enough to supply all the Zhao people, so that everyone can eat enough. ”

"But the reality is, no."

"This is not because the yield per mu is too low, resulting in a shortage of total grain."

"It's a distribution problem!" Ying Zheng nodded: "Then Senior Brother, the sentence "Productive Forces Determine Production Relations" that you taught me before has not been invalidated?"

"That's half a sentence!"

"The productive forces determine the relations of production, and the relations of production in turn affect the productive forces!"
