Half an hour later, Tian Yu brought the Xian Yufu brothers to see Liu Kuan. informed Liu Kuan that the prisoners had been handed over to the county soldiers to take back to Yuyang County, and he had sent someone to pick up the villagers in the mountains.

After a victory, the village was jubilant, Tian Yu's cousin also arranged for the villagers to prepare a banquet, and everyone drank and sang and cheered until dawn before they dispersed.

Hua Jun's limbs are disabled, Zhang Li, and Wang Bing's cultivators don't want to do anything with ordinary people, so the three of them hid in the mountains with Zhao Taiweng on the day of the battle.

The next day near noon, Liu Kuan got up and went to greet the three of them, Hua Jun's face was ugly, Zhang Li said: "The thieves are also people who seek to live, you wait for a big killing, only to increase the sins, hey!" ”

After Liu Kuan heard this, he looked at Hua Jun's face and defended in a low voice: "The thieves burn, kill and loot, and if the villagers don't organize resistance, hundreds of people in the whole village will be slaughtered, and the villagers are innocent." Uncle Shi, Uncle Shi, the disciple did not kill a single person last night. ”

Hua Jun coughed after hearing this, Wang Bing didn't say anything when he saw this, but just patted Hua Jun's back. "If you don't do it, dozens of people will die because of you!" Hua Jun said while coughing, waved his hand after speaking, and drove Liu Kuan out of the room.

Liu Kuan just went out in disgrace, but bumped into Zhao Taiweng leading Tian Yu into the door, so Liu Kuan turned around and followed.

After Zhao Taiweng entered the door, he saluted the three Taoist chiefs and signaled Tian Yu, who immediately knelt on his knees. Zhao Taiweng said: "Zhao Jiabao is fortunate that the three Taoist masters came, and the old grandson saw the Taoist immortal wind and Dao bones, and begged the old man to come and say something, and implored the Taoist to accept him as an apprentice. ”

Tian Yu listened to it and kowtowed.

Zhang Li and Wang Bing looked at Hua Jun, Hua Jun was silent in a low voice, contradictory in his heart, thinking that the talents in his door were withering, and he should accept more disciples, but he had a heavy responsibility on his shoulders, wandering around, and there was no condition for accepting disciples and bare-bones lintels. Although Tian Yu is extremely intelligent and has excellent roots and bones, his five elements are impure and he is not suitable for cultivating the superior exercises of this sect, so he hesitates again and again.

Seeing this, Zhang Li said: "Senior brother, this son is sincere, intelligent, erudite, brave and calm, and can worship under the third senior sister." Zhang Li was already a little disheartened, so he pushed him to Wang Bing.

After Zhang Li finished speaking, he gestured to Wang Bing, and when Wang Bing saw Hua Jun nodding silently, he said to Tian Yu: "Are you willing to worship under my door?" ”

Tian Yu was overjoyed, "The disciple is willing!" After speaking, he kowtowed to Wang Bing.

Seeing this, Wang Bing knew that Tian Yu was willing, so he helped Tian Yu up and said, "You can learn some scriptures and martial arts from me in the future." ”

Zhao Taiweng was overjoyed and was busy preparing for the banquet of the Luo people. Liu Kuan smiled and approached, Tian Yu hurriedly saluted Liu Kuan, "I've seen senior brother!" Liu Kuan pulled Tian Yu and was very happy.

However, he said that after Gao Ai escaped that day, he went straight to Jizhou away from Youzhou, and went to Zhang Niujiao in Boling, and later led the team to fall into the grass for the coward, and the bandits from more than 1,000 people were in trouble in Jizhou and Youzhou.

After Gao Ai fled, he held a grudge against Zhaojiabao and vowed to avenge this blood revenge. Tian Yu and Xian Yufu brothers became famous in Yuyang after this battle, and the name of Yuyang Sanjie gradually spread.

After Tian Yu apprenticed, Liu Kuan and others lived in Zhaojiabao for a period of time, and Liu Kuan practiced with Xian Yufu, Tian Yu and others every day to discuss the general trend of the world. Hey, Liu Kuanxin said, it seems that pointing out the country is a common problem of good young people from the past two thousand years, Liu Kuan is a person from later generations, and he knows the general trend of the world well, but his views are too bizarre, and Liu Kuan's wording is very cautious.

Xian Yufu is erudite and knowledgeable, and said: "There are three evils today, my Han is in danger, one is that the dynasty is corrupt, the eunuchs are in power, the relatives are in power, and the officials are in trouble; After the death of the three Zhang Jiao brothers, the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans, the Jizhou Yellow Turban Army (later the Black Mountain Army), and the Baibo Yellow Turbans continued to abuse; Third, natural disasters continue, the people are not living, since the war between the Han Wu and the Xiongnu, after the Southern Xiongnu annexed, the grassland plague, spread to my Central Plains, over and over again, for a hundred years, but there is no cure. In recent years, there have been several locust plagues in the north, frequent breaches of the Yellow River, and continuous floods in Jingzhou and Jiangdong below the Yangtze River, all of which are rare disasters in a century. ”

Tian Yu continued: "Natural disasters and man-made disasters, the harm of the family must not be said, the state and county records, such as a thunderbolt, the family annexed the land, when the disaster and famine arose, the hoarding was strange, and the government was unable to help, and the people were desperate, only to rebel. The people are suffering! ”

Liu Kuan was very surprised when he heard this, Xian Yufu and Tian Yu were really talented and could clearly see the current social situation, Tian Yu actually pointed to the land annexation and family issues, which was considered to hit the nail on the head.

"Two great talents, admire below!" Liu Kuan said, "But what is the root cause of these problems? In fact, jumping out of the present, the emergence of these problems is also inevitable, in the long river of history, this is a kind of law, let's call it the way of heaven. ”

"Oh, what do you mean by that?" Tian Yu interjected and asked.

Liu Kuan continued: "Since the Shang Zhou, the population of our Chinese has soared, the people's willingness to have children is high, and the population reproduction is not controlled, resulting in overbreeding. But the development of productive forces is slow, it is difficult to increase the grain output per unit of land, a Han Dynasty was established for 400 years, and the two emperors of Heshun and Shun, the population was 60 million, to the time of Emperor Huan of the Han Dynasty, in 157 AD, the census again, the population was 56 million, the land was limited, a large number of people were controlled in the hands of the family, the population was overloaded, and the food was bound to be in short supply. This is already the case. ”

"Natural and man-made disasters, hunger, and wars will lead to a sharp decline in the population, and even a large-scale extinction, so there will be a relative easing of the contradiction between man and land, so a new order will be established, and it will begin to recuperate, and enter a peaceful and prosperous era, and then the population will grow to an overload, and then there will be war...... As a result, there is a cycle of ruling the world, recuperating and recuperating, population growth, population overload, troubled times, eliminating population, and ruling the world. ”

Liu Kuan said eloquently, and when he was smooth, he forgot that some nouns were not used by the ancients. But Tian Yu and Xian Yufu are such intelligent and erudite people, the two of them heard it freshly, and they felt that what they said was reasonable, and they had a sense of deafening. These are basic knowledge for a high-achieving student of law, but Tian Yu and the two heard about it for the first time, and the two pondered for a long time, and their thoughts couldn't help but fly to the various stages of the Shang and Zhou dynasties, the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, and the Qin and Han dynasties, and confirmed them one by one, and felt that they were very reasonable.

"So how do we break this cycle of rise and fall so that the prosperity lasts forever?" Xian Yufu jumped out of his contemplation and asked, "Is there a solution?" ”

After Liu Kuan heard this, his mind was sweating, this question is not too big, this is to answer the postgraduate examination essay question by himself.

Tian Yu also looked at Liu Kuan after hearing this, Liu Kuan was difficult to ride a horse, counting, anyway, his knowledge was more than enough to fool them, "This problem involves a wide range of aspects, and it is also a thousand-year-old problem, so I will put it simply." The contradiction between population and land should be resolved, first, it is necessary to appropriately limit the population, and in the prosperous era, the population should not be allowed to multiply excessively, and family planning should be practiced; if a peasant couple has 10 acres of land, and they have 5 to 10 children, and each person will only get one or two acres of land after separation, and within three generations, from the perspective of the family, the contradiction between population and land will not be small. Second, when the wasteland is reclaimed and the territory is expanded, there are still large areas of wasteland, tidal flats, and deep forests to be developed, and the northeast of Youzhou, the west of Yizhou, and the southwest of Jiaozhi are all scattered tribes, and they should be educated and immigranted. ”

Seeing the surprise on the faces of the two, Liu Kuan continued: "Third, improve productivity, develop together with industry, agriculture and business, prosper the economy, and solve employment. It is not allowed to emphasize agriculture and suppress industry and commerce. Fourth, it is necessary to straighten out the political system, strengthen supervision over power, and solve the problem of not prospering or dying because of one person. Fifth, land annexation should be restricted, the development of the family should be inhibited, and local secession should be eliminated; Sixth, we should pay attention to education, medicine, craftsmanship innovation, and let hundreds of schools of thought contend. After the scientific development, the population carrying capacity per unit of land area will be greatly increased. That's all for now. Liu Kuan said, Yun Danfeng was expressionless.

Xian Yufu and Tian Yu opened their mouths like bowls, dumbfounded. Liu Kuan's language is peculiar and deviant, but he is very systematic and systematic.

In the next few days, Liu Kuan could no longer be idle, and was pestered by the two of them every day to explain the relevant terms and explain the reason for "Liu Kuan's Six Strategies".

Liu Kuan's head is as big as an ox, tired of coping, after all, the two have been immersed in Confucianism for more than ten years, Liu Kuan's deviant views are difficult for the two to accept for a while, in the midst of the controversy, Xian Yufu, Tian Yu is knowledgeable, and has a solid foundation in Confucian theory.

Not to mention that Xian Yufu and Tian Yu got along with Liu Kuan for a long time, talked about the Tao, imperceptibly, and also accepted his thoughts, how many years later, because the two and their disciples were mostly Yuyang people, their doctrine was its own school, and it was called "Yuyang School" by the world. ”
