Chapter 93: What's so difficult to break the family
"Hehe, how do you break it? With a knife? If that's the case, the court will immediately have no one available, and most of the officials are children of the family, if not the family.
Because the family has mastered the inheritance of knowledge, ordinary people must have a relationship with them if they want to obtain it, master and apprentice, master and servant... And so on, and the family is not a soft persimmon, the hidden forces behind them can be called terrifying, and the real reason for the decline of many dynasties throughout the ages is the means behind them, difficult! ”
"Land, taxes! There is also a monopoly on knowledge, which adds up to the rampant nature of the family, most of the land in the world is in the hands of this family, although there are many people, most of them are tenants, and the family does not have to pay taxes because of its own status, which causes all taxes to be pressed on the heads of other people.
And the inheritance of knowledge has always been in the hands of the family, and the children of the poor family often need to spend a huge price if they want to study, and they will also be excluded from the family after entering the officialdom, and these children of the poor family can only do more than two choices, one is to be a lonely minister, and then be slowly marginalized and transparent, or become the lackeys of the family and integrate into them, and then form a new family. ”
The eldest grandson Wuji analyzed it very thoroughly, basically the current Tang Dynasty is supported by the children of the family, at least before the results of the imperial examination, the children of the family will be very active, so the current Li Shimin is the most constrained.
"Okay, for your sake, I'll help you do this, isn't it to master the land, to put it bluntly, it's to master the food, the people can't live without food, so naturally they have to listen to them, but what if I have enough food... As for the transmission of knowledge, I do have something that can speed up the spread of knowledge, papermaking and movable type printing, have you heard of it? ”
In terms of food production, Chen Mo really hasn't been afraid, the area of the farm has expanded, and Chen Mo has a lot of land in the Western Regions, all of which have been converted into spatial pastures and fertile fields, and grain and meat are produced every day, it can be said that as long as he is willing, it is no problem to feed a person in the Tang Dynasty for free, of course, he will not be stupid enough to do that, and he still knows about the enmity and enmity.
Most people don't cherish what they get for free, and even take it for granted after a long time, and if they don't get it one day or a little worse, they will feel resentful, so they can't do free things.
They had to be allowed to earn it through their labor, and they had to make these ordinary people who were originally under the rule of the family feel that this was the only way they wanted.
So what Chen Mo wants to do now is to build momentum!
The eldest grandson Wuji didn't expect that he would have such a big harvest on this trip, and what he was carrying in his arms was the process of papermaking and movable type printing, but no one thought of this as a seemingly simple thing, of course, this is also because paper has not yet been popularized, but the papermaking technology provided by Chen Mo will greatly improve the output and quality of paper, provide the most favorable weapon for cultural dissemination, and also become the ultimate weapon against the family.
And they have to pay very little, just cooperate with Chen Mo to take action, and these actions such as levying labor are completely for Datang, it can be said that Chen Mo is completely volunteering to help.
Naturally, the actions of the eldest grandson Wuji cannot be concealed from the eyes of those who have a heart, and the family also has eyeliner in the palace, but they don't know that what the eldest grandson Wuji has on his body will become their poison.
"Your Majesty, you have gained a lot today!!" The eldest grandson Wuji was excited, his tone trembled, and Li Shimin's eyes lit up when he heard this, usually the eldest grandson Wuji was excited, it must be very important.
The eldest grandson Wuji did not sell Guan Zi and directly took out the two volumes of formula in his arms and said: "Your Majesty, this is the improvement of paper, although it is rare, it is less than one-ten-thousandth of the value of this volume of movable type printing, with this, the family will cease to exist..." ”
There are no longer four words to say categorically, Li Shimin looked at the movable type printing in shock and even the outstretched hand trembled a little, destroy the family? That's the biggest headache he's having right now, and it's actually solved by this little thing.
"That's what you talked to him about? What do we need to give? Li Shimin didn't think that he could have such a benefit without paying, he was ready for pain, but the eldest grandson Wuji was still smiling.
After a long while, Li Shimin became impatient, and the eldest grandson Wuji said slowly: "Your Majesty, Boss Chen is really a master in the world, not only did he not ask for any benefits, but also solved another troublesome matter for us, he wants to build roads and water conservancy to link all the states and counties, no matter where you go from now on, you can reach it by car and boat, and from then on, the situation that the imperial power does not go to the countryside will never appear again, and those families who are powerful in the local area will never have it again." ”
"Oh!! And this kind of good thing? Aiqing is quick to tell me how to talk about it... "Li Shimin is in a hurry, as if he was caught by a monkey.
The chief eunuch outside the Taiji Hall doesn't know how many times he heard the emperor's laughter, he has already sent someone down to make a royal meal and send it, seeing that His Majesty is talking about sex is afraid to talk about going late at night, but the emperor is happy that he is happy to serve the person who serves.
The next day, the royal family near the cross slope of a royal village quietly rose two construction sites, and the court on the eldest grandson Wuji also raised the issue of road repair and water conservancy, although this question is a bit abrupt, but it is good news for civil and military officials, especially for civil officials, their favorite is to engage in engineering construction, there is too much space for operation, once it is a lot of money.
Looking at the officials below who were gearing up to stand up and speak, Li Shimin sneered, You all want to take advantage of any good thing, this time it depends on how you fight with others.
"Your Majesty, about the construction of roads and water conservancy, the director of the Hero Academy came to Weichen two days ago, he said that he was willing to take over this business without a penny, saying that he wanted to exercise the ability of the students, and Weichen saw this good thing, so he agreed, I don't know what His Majesty wants?"
Li Shimin: "···"
"No! This must not be done! The roads in the world are related to the safety of the country, and water conservancy is related to the lifeblood of the people's cultivation. Chen Cui Chengyuan resolutely opposes this matter! ”
"The minister xxx is also against it!"
"The minister is also against it!"
"Minister····· Against "XN
