0054 Excuses

The house was finished. After drying in the house with a charcoal basin for a few days, Liu Pei officially moved. On the day of the move, Liu Pei set up a banquet in the village and invited the whole village to eat. What makes Liu Pei feel the most interesting is that some old people led by Uncle Qi criticized Liu Pei for not being able to live; While enjoying a feast that is usually hard to eat! Seeing that they were eating with their mouths full of oil and teaching themselves a lesson, Liu Pei felt very happy.

When the guests dispersed, Liu Pei also lay on the bed thinking about the current situation. The first step is to stand on your heels, and you've done it! Now it's time to grow.

But after this period of contact with the villagers, Liu Pei felt that it was very difficult to replace Daming in a short period of time. For he found that none of the people he came into contact with spoke ill of the emperor. Even if you are very dissatisfied with your life, that is, you scold two corrupt officials, absolutely no one will scold the emperor! At most, it is said that there are traitors around the emperor, and one day the emperor wakes up and cuts off the heads of all the traitors, and the world will be peaceful! It seems that thousands of years of imperial rule have long been engraved in the bones of these people.

Then there is the issue of education. There are only a few people in the village who are literate, and the level is extremely low! It's probably the kindergarten level of modern society, and it's not necessarily comparable!

Now the level of children in social kindergartens is quite high. At the very least, children in modern kindergartens are often able to read simple stories aloud under the education of their parents. And the most literate people in the village are probably dozens of words. This made Liu Pei feel very frustrated. You must know that the uneducated and the educated are definitely two different concepts when it comes to accepting new things.

Liu Pei, who couldn't sleep, simply ran to the utility room with a chair and waited for the space-time door to appear. Liu Pei sat there thinking wildly, calculating the history of the Ming Dynasty for the next 20 years.

He also discussed the situation with Professor Yuan during the late Ming Dynasty. In the end, Professor Yuan threw him four words: Heaven is dead!

At first, Liu Pei was not convinced! Liu Pei felt that there were natural and man-made disasters in the last years of the Ming Dynasty, how could there be such a thing as a natural death? Liu Pei also ridiculed Professor Yuan for not being a materialist. As a result, Professor Yuan casually listed a table and came out, and Liu Pei was dumbfounded when he saw it! It's really a thing!

First of all, the Ming Dynasty has come to the end of the dynasty according to time, and it can be said that it is riddled with diseases. Corrupt officials never come out; Land annexation is severe. The officials and gentry below divided into groups, and even formed parties, fighting endlessly for profit. The Manchus were the opposite. A nascent regime is full of ambition and has always had a strong core of leadership. Rights, manpower and material resources are relatively concentrated. Although there are internal battles, they are all working together when facing the outside.

Then there's the climate issue. The climate of the Xiaoice River, combined with corrupt officials and corrupt officials, destroyed the last group of yeoman farmers and drained the last capital of yeoman farmers. In the last decades of the Ming Dynasty, it was deeply affected by the climate of the Xiaoice River. Droughts, cold, heavy snowfall and other weather conditions have caused continuous land production reductions. Displaced people are everywhere, and even cannibalism!

Looking at the Manchu Qing side, after the Manchu Qing entered the customs, the climate of the Xiaoice River slowly subsided. And it just so happened that at this time, after nearly a hundred years of taming, potatoes, sweet potatoes and other crops finally regained their high-yield nature, and the grain produced was still edible after being exploited by the Manchu Qing Dynasty! This created the so-called prosperous Kangqian era. It is not so much the prosperity of Kangqian, but the prosperity of sweet potatoes! It was these cheap and high-yield crops that continued the Qing Dynasty.

There is also the peasant rebel army, or the rogue army, whose blow to the Ming Dynasty is quite heavy. Everything was destroyed and nothing was built. After that, the Jin army relied on a powerful intelligence system and cooperated very closely with the rogues. Once the Liukou fell into a trough under the blow of the Ming army, the Manchu side would jump out to stir up the situation! As a result, the Ming army's encirclement and suppression of the Liukou always fell short. In the end, the rogue grew stronger and knocked down the Ming Dynasty!

At the same time, the managers of the Ming Dynasty did not care about the rise and fall of the country at all, and desperately lay on the body of the Ming Dynasty to suck blood. These scholars took advantage of the state's preferential and exemption policies to engage in tricks such as cash investment, hid a large amount of land and population, and refused to pay taxes, even industrial and commercial taxes. As a result, the state had no money to raise its troops, forcing the state to put taxes on weak yeoman farmers, which accelerated the successive bankruptcies of yeoman farmers and the reduction of tax revenues.

Plus a Chinese specialty - traitors! I have to say that China's traitors have been in large quantities and high quality in all dynasties! In fact, many of the massacres at the end of the Ming Dynasty were carried out by traitors who received orders from the Manchus! I really don't know how they did it to their own people?

To sum up, in the last decades, the Ming Dynasty was actually fighting against the enemies of Liukou, Manchu, Xiaoice and gentry officials! In this case, it is already a miracle that the Ming Dynasty can continue for so long!

I don't know how long I thought about it, but the space-time gate quietly appeared. Liu Pei passed through the space-time gate and entered the warehouse. I felt the feeling of numbness all over my body again.

Liu Pei took a turn in the warehouse, and when he saw that everything was normal, he went back to rest through the time gate again. Liu Pei has already decided that if possible, he will go to the space-time gate every day to take a turn. On the one hand, it is necessary to check the charging status of the space-time gate. On the other hand, he continues to let the space-time gate transform his body. After all, this is the Ming Dynasty, and personal force is very important! If you have a strong body, you can also be more advantageous to subduing others.

Early the next morning, Liu Pei came to Uncle Qi's house. He made an appointment with Uncle Qi's family, and he didn't fire alone, he handed over rations to Uncle Qi's family, and Uncle Qi's family was responsible for his food.

After eating breakfast, Uncle Qi asked, "What are your plans for the future?" ”

Liu Pei said: "I have never farmed, so I plan to do business in the future. ”

"Doing business?" Uncle Qi squinted his eyes, looking like you were very cunning, and asked, "What kind of business?" Do you still have the capital? ”

Liu Pei patted his waist with a smile and said, "I still have a little capital!" And I'm going to do some unique business. ”

"Slippery boy!" Uncle Qi said with a smile: "How can there be any unique business to do in this world now!" ”

Liu Pei said: "Yes! There are a lot of good things on our island that Daming doesn't have! Isn't it my own business? ”
