Chapter 181: Serial Set
The so-called people don't offend me, I don't offend people.
For a long time, for the Donglin Party, Wei Gonggong has always adhered to the view that it is an internal contradiction in the imperial court, rather than a contradiction between the enemy and himself. To this end, he is willing to absorb, transform and reuse a group of Donglin Party members, such as Huang Zunsu, Ruan Dacheng, Tu Yizhen, Kong Mingde, Sun Bixian, Cheng Zhengji and others.
Among these people, there are big thieves who are ranked in the "Donglin Point General Record", there are also students who do not know the world, and even children who do not even have fame. But after the ideological transformation of the study class, they have now started a new journey in their lives under the leadership of Gonggong Wei.
Although Gonggong Wei does not think that his anthology and guiding ideology will necessarily make the teachers and students of Donglin reborn and become a person who is really useful to the country in his mind, no matter what the real motives of these people are, whether they obey their father-in-law on the surface, or really agree with their father-in-law in their bones, their father-in-law trusts them enough and lets them go.
People can be changed.
And the father-in-law is generous, tolerant, and tolerant.
He allowed speculation and allowed his heart to be in Donglin, because he believed that in the face of the mighty general trend, personal narrowness and the limitations of thought would be destroyed!
There is no suspicion in employing people, and there is no need for suspicious people.
In terms of the specific use of Donglin Toucheng personnel in the study class, the father-in-law can be said to have achieved the ultimate. He handed over the most important propaganda field to Huang Zunsu and Tu Yizhen, who were listed in the "Donglin Point General Record".
The gun fights the world, and the pen rules the world.
No matter which dynasty or generation, mastering public opinion is equivalent to mastering the world, because everything that the people know is told by others. They don't have their own sources of information, they don't have their own ability to analyze their thoughts, they just passively receive information, and this information is basically processed.
There is no right or wrong in information processing.
Good things can be processed, and bad things can be processed as well. The only thing that determines whether a message is right or wrong is whether it is conducive to rule and stability.
For example, the Manchu Qing Dynasty's processing of Ming history caused the Manchu rule to suddenly become extremely legitimate, causing 99 percent of the people in the previous life of the father-in-law to identify with this colonial dynasty and turn a blind eye to the suffering caused by this colonial dynasty to China and to all ethnic groups, including the Han Chinese.
Even after tea and dinner, the vast majority of people will always mention a few words of Kangxi and Qianlong when talking about the past and the present at the wine table, and the evaluation is always positive, while the previous Ming Dynasty, whether it is the dynasty itself or the emperor, was all condemned as decadent and mediocre.
The reason, in the final analysis, is that what the people know is what has been processed. What they know is what those who want them to know. Whether it's history books, influences, or cross talk sketches, there are no exceptions.
The father-in-law, who had a deep understanding of this and had not written any books for ten years, was naturally well aware of the benefits of information initiative, so he needed to cultivate his own political propaganda power.
"Huangming Daily" is the key manifestation of his father-in-law's actions in this field, this newspaper is not only to let His Majesty the Emperor know the loyalty of his father-in-law Wei and the goodness of his father-in-law Wei, but also to let the world know that everything he does is to serve the people wholeheartedly, not for his own selfish interests.
In such an important field, the father-in-law handed over Huang and Tu, who were born in the Donglin Party, which shows that the Duke of Wei is indeed eclectic, and it is indeed truly accommodating the Donglin Party.
In addition to Huang and Tu, there were many disciples of Donglin Academy, such as Cheng Zhengji, Sun Bixian, and Kong Mingde, who participated in the construction and development of the Imperial Army and the Special Economic Zone.
The so-called Donglin Party is nothing more than a combination of representatives of interest groups.
Gonggong Wei and the Special Administrative Region and the Imperial Army led by him are also a combination of interest groups, but the combination of Gonggong is more advanced than the Donglin Party, and can better represent the development direction of the Emperor and the interests of the people of the Emperor and Ming.
In the area of political propaganda and army building, the father-in-law let go of the Donglin Party, and in the fundamental economic field, the father-in-law of Wei did not close the door to the Donglin Party and the Jiangnan gentry group behind them.
The father-in-law had always hoped that the Jiangnan gentry would also join in the maritime industry, cooperate with the maritime forces led by the Zhejiang Party, and inject the strongest vitality into the economy of the Ming Dynasty in the 17th century, so as to save the empire that was about to collapse.
It was pointed out in the "Collected Documents of Wei Gongwen" that economic innovation will inevitably bring about political innovation, and political innovation will inevitably bring about the emancipation of the mind.
There is a sequence between the three, and no idea is born out of thin air, and no political innovation is not driven by economic interests. Only economic innovation can bring about a series of innovations. What is a financial benefit? A rich country and a strong army are the peace of the country and the people.
Put it on a family, it is to earn more money and solve the problem of food and clothing. Only after the problem of food and clothing is solved, will we think of going to a better life. Then the production and lifestyle of the previous family will be changed accordingly, which is innovation. When life is good, health and recreation and all aspects of the requirements will appear, and this will lead to the emancipation of the mind.
Quoted from the Jiangnan gentry group, in the words of his father-in-law, guarding the one-third of an acre of land, guarding the small workshop, thinking about how to make the court not collect taxes all day long, so that he could put the silver originally included in the treasury into his own pocket, and be a miser, instead of trying to expand the scale, expand channels, increase sales profits, and win for individuals and the country, then these people deserve to be served by the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and it is worthless to spend a penny.
It is a pity that so far, the group behind the Donglin Party has not joined the maritime industry headed by the father-in-law, and is even very hostile and repulsive. In the previous two years, the conflict between the father-in-law and the governor of Yingtian, Suzhou, Changzhou and other local governments was a manifestation of this phenomenon.
In order to break the blockade imposed by the Jiangnan gentry clique on the special maritime zone, the father-in-law had to adopt the method of "sealing the river and Jinghai" and personally inspected Jiangbei, thus opening up a trade route in the blockade circle and using force and half-coercion and half-inducement, thus laying the foundation for maritime trade in the special zone. Otherwise, there are no basic commodities, how can there be trade!
Fortunately, the father-in-law put down his body and went to Ningbo to meet with the four Ming Dynasty ministers Shen Zheng, and the concession of interests was exchanged for the cooperation of the maritime forces headed by the Zhejiang Party, which made today's joint fleet and Taiwan's pro-army command the envoys, otherwise, there would be many difficulties.
Wei Gonggong is a kind-hearted person, he did not kill the Donglin Party because of the hostility and slander of the Jiangnan gentry group, he hoped that through several years of maritime trade development, the Donglin Party and the group behind them could see the benefits of the maritime industry, so that they could take the initiative to participate.
However, the letter of the Jingshi Donglin Party and Yang Lian's attempted knock on the door made the father-in-law realize that the power of the stubborn conservatives was very strong, and they were also a great threat to him.
I want to turn my heart to the bright moon, but the bright moon shines on the ditch!
The news brought by Cui Yingyuan is relatively comprehensive, and the intelligence collection ability of the East Factory is still first-class in the world. From various news, Wei Gonggong analyzed that the fundamental purpose of Yang Lian and others in writing was not only to kill him Wei Liangchen, but to uproot the Zhejiang Party that cooperated with him Wei Liangchen.
It's a political ensemble.
