After more than 100 years of evolution and corruption, the state system was gradually controlled by the magnates and merchants, or the elite class supported by the bourgeoisie.

The state's taxes, grain, and social materials secretly flowed into the hands of tax rats through various channels, and the state's tax revenues gradually hollowed out, eventually becoming weak and impoverished, triggering large-scale peasant uprisings.

The most typical case is that in the last years of the Ming Dynasty, natural disasters continued to occur in various places, and the reason for this was that natural disasters were aggravated by man-made disasters, and local tyrants colluded with powerful and powerful civil and official groups to occupy military camps and conceal grain without reporting, evade taxes and maliciously default on taxes, and bureaucrats and local merchant groups headed by civil and official groups monopolized the local economy.

In the end, the local money and grain and grass could not enter the state treasury, and the local wealthy and powerful households forcibly occupied the people's land and hoarded countless grains, and the common people lost their land and caused the displaced people, which further aggravated the oppression and suffering of the local low-level population.

To say that such a merchant group and Haoqiang can be described in one word, stupid!

But it is obviously impossible to get the existing corrupt and powerful people with vested interests to give up their wealth, or even donate their wealth.

After more than ten years of destruction by Gongsun Yue, the wealthy class has long been swept away, and there is only a remnant of the elite class with the monarch's nepotism as the core.

Of course, King Xian knew it, but he could neither beat nor scold, let alone kill, because his throne still needed to rely on the maintenance of the old aristocratic system, so Mingli hinted that he was privately nagging, and in the form of apportionment, he collected 200,000 stone grains and grass, more than 1 million copper coins, tens of thousands of gold and silver and other things from the fiefdoms and magnates of the whole country, and the amount was very small.

Could it be that the magnates in the whole country only have 200,000 stone of grain? Of course, this is impossible, in fact, many people will not come up with real money even if they have, asking them to pledge willingly, which is a fool's dream.

In the context of today's era, there is neither a systematic sense of state, nor a systematic cultural identity and national cognition, and there is no such thing as a national businessman or a conscientious businessman, and even if there is, it is the impulsive behavior of the middle and lower classes of businessmen in society under the agitation of interests and politics.

The monarch under the old aristocratic feudal system, in the final analysis, maintained the leader of the vested interest group of the monarchy and the elite system. In other words, the meaning of the existence of the ruler is to serve the powerful of the ruling class by governing the country and the common people.

In other words, it is natural to let the blood and sweat of the common people be levied, and it is unreasonable, illegal, and unreasonable to let those in power spit out money, because it is natural for me to rule you, let me support you, why!.

As a result, the ruling class of the elite has absolute dominating power, and the common people are only tools for profit, which is a typical feature of the old aristocratic feudal system.

At present, we are in the turbulence of the times of the old feudal aristocracy system and the transition to the new feudal system, the common people have gradually transformed from the earliest slaves and pure exploitation objects to a more valuable means of production, the aristocratic core system has gradually collapsed, and it is no longer the main object of the monarch's dependence.

For example, the transformation of China from the Spring and Autumn Period to the Warring States Period was a violent collision between the collapse of the feudal system of aristocratic slaves and the transformation to a new feudal system.

A large number of civilians entered the military and the state system and held more positions. At the same time, the commoner class gained more freedoms, such as the disappearance of slavery and the progress of land ownership, which was a sign of the collapse of the old aristocratic feudal system.

In the process, during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, China gradually transformed into a complete feudal system through wars and cultural collisions between princes.

At present, it is the Black Turban Army that has broken the existing ties of interests, geopolitical relations, and the military potential and political inertia generated by the huge civil power base, which has seriously impacted the power dependence relationship under the existing old aristocratic system.

If the existing power and political system are not overthrown, there is no doubt that the black turban army's new productive forces will eventually overthrow the old aristocratic system of all existing conservative forces.

Since ancient times, it was not the common people who overthrew the regime, but the existing system, which could not adapt to the changes in the relations of production and the productive forces, and the resulting dissatisfaction of all strata caused by the uneven redistribution of interests was the peasant uprising.

Of course, An Lushan's kind of typical desire for power, the rebellion of feudal officials and local secession caused by it is not universally representative, and at the same time, the administrative system of the Tang Dynasty gave the local assassin too strong the right to assassinate the history, which also determined the inevitability of the An Lushan incident.

But in the final analysis, the collapse of most dynasties is still the uneven distribution of wealth and interests, and the ruling class has excessively squeezed the living space of the common people at the bottom.

Through more than ten years of administration, Gongsun Yue basically achieved the goal of eliminating the wealthy strata of the majority of the people in Xian, while inflating the elite strata, creating an uneven distribution of interests between the bottom and the ruling stratum, and intensifying contradictions.

Now, in addition to the capital city of Lingling and Guangxin, the powerful lords of other counties and counties, how many independent merchants and middle class people are not attached to the elite? Almost nothing, all of them were wiped out by Gongsun Yue, so the people at the bottom of Xianguo gained an unprecedented basis for resistance.

The existing economic potential of the Xianguo is all derived from the interest ties maintained by the aristocratic system, and from the interest groups maintained by the aristocratic system.

In other words, the aristocratic clique became the main culprit in the direct oppression of the common people, and this contradiction became extremely acute after the disappearance of the private wealthy class and private capital.

In the context of the era of low productivity and imperfect system, the commercial and production activities formed by the private wealthy class and private capital are the buffer of national stability, the link between the lower strata and the middle capital, and the rational production relations between the rich strata and private capital connect the people at the bottom.

Without this layer, it will eventually evolve into who has more resources and privileges, and who will stand on the opposite side of the vast number of people at the bottom. Obviously, Gongsun Yue succeeded in creating this situation.

As a supporter of the powerful, King Xian can neither open his mouth nor make a move, uprooting his nepotism and the aristocratic group and reinventing it, it is obvious that King Xian has given a chance, and the responders mean it. But if he is ruthless and steals his family one by one, then who else in the Xianguo country supports the king of Xian, and he will become a loner.

Therefore, if you want these nobles to be willing to come up with real money, without realistic benefits and benefits, it is difficult to impress their calculations.

If you want power, you can give everything you can under the existing system, and if you want money, you don't have a cent of the treasury, and you can't ask for land. Now only the pearls sent by Bailiyan can be regarded as a treasure that is regarded as a luxury at the moment.

What the powerful want to do with real money is nothing more than to enjoy glory and wealth, and their greatest external manifestation is to eat well, dress well, use good clothes, and use luxuries. What silk satin, jade agate, pearl gems, women and horses, are all luxuries, to show their aristocratic privileges.

Imagine that the next pearl necklace is enough to make people rush to it at any cost, and what King Xian has now is, what he doesn't have is only money, as long as he takes money and food in exchange, it's not a lot of money.

In fact, in the final analysis, the reincarnation of Bailiyan (that is, Wei Xian) is not an opportunity of the times (plug-in).
