Chapter 408: All Living Beings
The most ideal system in Yang Hao's heart is the real **, what capitalism, socialism, in his opinion, the ruling class is exploiting the toiling masses.
But what Comrade Lao Ma said is not right, when the productive forces of human society have not reached a certain height, there can only be a theoretical state.
The current social model of Qi is not a feudal society in the traditional sense, in fact, Qi has no tradition of dividing feudal states at all.
The high degree of centralization and the planned economy look like a mixture of imperial and socialist.
Yang Hao gave a political lesson to his son on this day.
And the content of the teaching is a summary of his experience in the past ten years.
He didn't expect Yang Zhi to fully understand his own thoughts, as long as his successor understood how to govern a country in this system, it was enough.
Maybe this time and space can enter the communist society in advance because of his arrival, Yang Hao thought.
Yang Zhidao: "Is my father worried about the fleet?" ”
Yang Hao nodded and said: "Yes, how can my father not worry, if he can succeed in going to sea this time, it will completely change our Daqi." ”
"Father, is the so-called American continent really that good?"
Yang Zhi was a little puzzled.
Yang Hao smiled and said: "Whether it is good or not can only depend on how the people are governed, how the system is, if you let Baoshan go, it is just a wild place." ”
"Since you have what we need in Daqi, will the imperial court conquer there?"
Yang Hao laughed when he heard this: "Conquer there? As a father, I can't do this, the Americas are thousands of miles away from me, and I don't know how much taxes I have spent on this voyage, and there is a lot of spare power to conquer it, and this matter can only be left to posterity. ”
"Father will definitely rule Daqi forever and live with the sky."
Yang Hao said: "What is the same life as the sky, it's all, how can people not die, don't believe those lies, human life is limited, in this limited life, try not to leave regrets for yourself, this life will be content, if thousands of years later, there are still people who can remember you, maybe this is another sense of eternal existence." ”
"Father, why do people die?"
This topic was a bit dull, and Yang Hao didn't know how to answer it for a while.
I could only sigh and say: "Don't think about those useless, we live the moment is the most important thing." ”
Yang Zhi nodded and said, "Erchen understands." ”
"Well, you must know that as rulers, we are not just simple exploiters, we and the toiling masses are a community of destiny, one is prosperous and one is lost, when the people at the bottom live well, as rulers we can live a better life.
If the monarch or official only knows how to covet pleasure, and does not care about the life or death of the people at the bottom, in the end, there is only one way to go, and the water can carry the boat and overturn the boat, which is exactly the case. ”
"Father, aren't even you free?"
Yang Hong said in a deep voice: "How can anyone in this world have real freedom, the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility, but most capable wicked people are not like taking this responsibility, such people are often in high positions, you say that such people are hiding, what will happen to me?" ”
Yang Hao frowned and pondered for a moment and said, "In the long run, my Great Qi will decline." ”
"Tell me what you think."
Yang Zhi sorted out his language and said in a deep voice: "For example, the researchers of the Academy of Sciences, if they don't want to research, just want to eat, drink and have fun, then my Daqi's science and technology will not be able to progress.
The same is true for officials, if officials do not consider the lives of the people, the Qi country will become confused, and the court will lose the support of the people.
”
Yang Hao showed a teachable expression, nodded and said, "Yes, that's exactly the truth, okay, let's be here today." ”
Yang Zhi got up and bowed: "Erchen retires." ”
After the door was closed, Yang Hao picked up the water cup and took a sip, sighed lightly, got up and walked to the window, lay on his back on the bed, and looked at the beam of the room with some distraction.
Only when you become an emperor do you know what it means to be alone.
Although he has a wife and children, he has a brother who fights the world with him.
But the gap in identity has formed a natural barrier between the two sides.
Yang Hao's loneliness in his heart can only be borne silently.
He now misses the days when he used to have friends with himself, eating barbecue at a roadside stall and bragging.
At that time, although he was also a member of the ** silk, he had a happiness that he could not experience at this time.
The burden of a country, a civilization weighed on him alone, and he sometimes felt very tired.
He really wanted to learn from those unenlightened monarchs in later generations to indulge in a lifetime of pleasure, but whenever he wanted to, he always unconsciously developed in another direction.
"Maybe Lao Tzu was born to work hard!"
Yang Hao smiled bitterly.
In July of the fourteenth year of Hongwu, half a month had passed since the departure of the fleet.
This season, the Central Plains has entered the hottest season.
Farmers outside Chang'an City worked in the scorching sun.
The sunrise and sunset have become the truest portrayal of the toiling masses.
has reached middle age, and has been living in Chang'an City for ten years.
He was once coerced to come to Chang'an City, and in more than ten years, he has started a family in Chang'an City.
Once he also wanted to enlist in the army, but he was too thin and weak, and after he missed the army, he did a lot of work in Chang'an, worked as a shopkeeper in a restaurant, and went to work on the construction site.
With the development of Qi business, he became a member of the merchant class by mistake.
From the beginning of walking the streets and alleys, selling some small items, to now having his own store, the experience of more than ten years has made him feel that it is not easy.
Ten in the evening is the best time of the day for business.
At this time, the hunters who go out for a day always bring good furs, and in addition to buying furs, his shop is to provide some poor quality liquor for the hunters who have been tired from a long day.
It has also become a major gathering point for nearby residents in their spare time.
Here they can brag to each other and talk about some of the seven aunts and eight aunts.
This small shop is the most realistic portrayal of the ordinary citizens of Chang'an City.
Contempt's personality is more dull, he just likes to sit quietly and listen to the neighborhood I don't know where to hear the anecdotes, when someone calls for wine, hurriedly prepare the wine for the guests, and then continue to sit quietly aside, sometimes making calculations, sometimes echoing a few words of ridicule from the guests.
