Chapter 516 Liu Argues Qiangguo

Mi Zhu and a group of guests were taken to Qingzhou Opera County, and Kong Rong immediately invited Mi Zhu to a banquet. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoAs for the potter brothers, they are not among the banquets, and no one can look down on a son-in-law who has no effect.

During the banquet, Kong Rong asked Mi Zhu: "Zizhong, now that your family property is all in Xuzhou, I don't know what your plans are in the future?"

"Haha, I want to come back when Tao Zhugong's daughter dispersed, although I don't have Tao Zhugong's ability to govern the country and secure the country, but I learned his skills from business. Although I don't have any property in Xuzhou, as long as I'm here, I'll come back sooner or later! Mi Zhu laughed.

Tao Zhugong is Fan Li, he is a famous military strategist, politician, economist, as if omniscient and omnipotent. In his early years, he assisted Goujian, the king of Yue, to restore the country, and 3,000 Yuejia swallowed up Qiang Wu. However, the emperor can share weal and woe, but not wealth and prosperity? Let's ask Gou Jian's filthy endurance and humiliation in his early years, Fan Li knows it clearly, how can Gou Jian tolerate him?

However, Fan Li also saw this early, after Gou Jian returned to the country, Fan Li went into hiding, changed his name and surname, and became rich in business three times during the period, and scattered his family wealth three times. Fan Li's honor is widely known to future generations, so I won't list them one by one.

Mi Zhu compares himself to Fan Li, although he is only doing business, but Kong Rong does not dare to underestimate him.

Among the four ranks of Shinong, industry and commerce, and civilians, the rank of merchants is the lowest, and they are regarded as lowly industries, because merchants are highly profitable, and they cannot afford to make profits early, and this kind of people are the most despised.

However, Liu Wei advocated business, or not praise, but encouraged its development, and governed the country with the idea of Confucian benevolence and righteousness.

Moreover, businessmen are a floating group, which is not conducive to management and is a factor of social instability, if businessmen are respected, then the power of the people will also chase interests, but the country is based on benevolence and righteousness, so that the society will be chaotic.

This is the fundamental reason for the feudal society's emphasis on agriculture and suppression of commerce, and the fundamental reason is to stabilize the position of the ruler and the stability of the country.

Fortunately, Mi Zhu is benevolent, although the family started with business, but these things are common to help the people, although he is a businessman, but his status is very noble, Rao is a descendant of Confucius, a representative of Confucianism, and he can't afford to be a benevolent person who started with business.

After listening to Mi Zhu's words, Kong Rong laughed and said: "Zizhong really has the demeanor of Tao Zhugong, I don't know if Zizhong is going to Luoyang or staying in Chang'an?"

Kong Rong wants Mi Zhu to stay in Qingzhou, if Mi Zhu develops in Qingzhou, it will inevitably drive the development of Qingzhou and benefit the people, and Xuzhou is rich, in fact, it has a lot to do with the promotion of the Mi family.

Zizhong thought for a moment and said: "Let's go to Luoyang, the little sister is still in Qingzhou, and now His Majesty wants to admit her into the palace, and I just escort them to Luoyang."

Kong Rong was slightly disappointed, but nodded with a smile and said, "Then since you decided to go to Luoyang, the old man will send General Qin Qiong to accompany him to protect him, and he will also tell His Majesty about the situation in Qingzhou."

The main thing is that Mi Zhen is too important, Kong Rong also has to be cautious, after all, from Qingzhou to Luoyang, there are only two roads, one is through Yanzhou, the other is through Jizhou, both are hostile camps, if you are not careful, it will not be good to be captured by the enemy.

"Thank you so much!" Mi Zhu was overjoyed.

After the banquet, on the second day, Qin Qiong took hundreds of soldiers, disguised as a business traveler, and rushed from Jizhou to Luoyang. Compared with Yanzhou, Jizhou's defense is looser and easier to deal with. Half a month later, the group arrived in Luoyang without danger.

After coming to Luoyang, Liu Wei met Mi Zhu, Mi Zhen, Mi Zhen, Liu Wei naturally looked at it, and even if he ordered someone to choose the auspicious day of the zodiac, Mi Zhen entered the palace.

Mi Zhu, on the other hand, was summoned into the study by Liu Wei to discuss major matters in secret. In the study, Liu Wei took out a stack of copywriting for Mi Zhu to see, while he himself was dealing with government affairs. This copy is very thick, about dozens of pages, Mi Zhu read it for a long time, but he kept thinking about it, and his face changed unpredictably.

After watching it for two hours, Mi Zhu put down the copy, looked at Liu Wei and said bitterly: "Your Majesty has the heart to improve the status of a businessman?" Growing a business? ”

Obviously, the copywriting in Mi Zhu's hand was drafted by Liu Wei for commercial construction.

But after listening to Mi Zhu's words, Liu Wei shook his head and said, "Status? Shinong, businessmen and businessmen are all ordinary people, and there is no good or low. They are all my people, and I naturally treat them equally. It is divided into four grades because the scholar is a scholar and has the highest status, while the big Han peasant is the root, the peasant naturally ranks second, and the worker is second. And businessmen, businessmen are profit-oriented, and they are a factor of social instability, so they are ranked last. ”

But in His Majesty's copywriting, it is to set up a Ministry of Commerce and develop commerce, so that everyone in the world will chase interests and no one will serve the farmers, which will inevitably have an impact on agriculture and shake the country. Although the grass people are businessmen, His Majesty's move is a big business, but the grass people are more considerate of the country and hope that Your Majesty will not develop business! Mi Zhu shook his head bitterly and said.

Liu Wei's eyes were full of appreciation, and the content of this copy was a series of policies and plans to stimulate business. If ordinary people see it, they will definitely take advantage of the opportunity of Liu Bian's great business to make a lot of money, and although Mi Zhu is a businessman, he thinks about the country and advises Liu Bian not to prosper business. His benevolence and loyalty made Liu Wei admire.

Merchants are like this, they are the cancer of the Confucian benevolent society, and no ruler will develop commerce and cause turmoil in his rule. Yes, they just keep suppressing business, and Mi Zhu doesn't understand Liu Bian's ideas, and he can't figure it out.

Although Liu Wei admired Mi Zhu, he did not intend to extinguish his thoughts, if a country wants to become strong, it will not work without business. Although the Han Dynasty is a big agricultural country today, the proper development of commerce will not have an impact on agriculture, and Liu Wei must restrain businessmen while developing commerce.

"This is a copywriting plan for the development of business, and I know the disadvantages of developing a business, what are the benefits of you unilaterally talking about this!" Liu Wei waved his hand.

"Your Majesty's plan to develop commerce is indeed novel, and I am afraid that Tao Zhugong is alive, and it is nothing more than that. If it is really implemented according to the plan, it will greatly promote the prosperity of our Han, but the rise of merchants is not conducive to stability......"

Before Mi Zhu finished speaking, Liu Wei raised his hand to stop it, and Liu Wei smiled: "It is enough to promote the prosperity of my Han Dynasty, as for how to suppress and stabilize after the rise of businessmen, I have a way!"

"What can Your Majesty do?" Mi Zhu said in surprise.

"As mentioned above, I want to set up a Ministry of Commerce, and the role of the Ministry of Commerce is to manage the merchants of the world! And I also intend to compile a commercial code to manage these unstable factors! Liu Wei said with a smile.

"The Commercial Code?" Mi Zhu was so surprised that he could hold a steamed bun in his mouth, and he didn't react for a long time.

After all, the law is too avant-garde, and it is the law of the Han Dynasty, and it is not very regular. Because Confucianism governs the country now, Confucianism stresses benevolence and righteousness, and the law does not care about human feelings, so many laws are not perfect. In many places, the trial of cases is not carried out in accordance with the law, and is managed by people. Therefore, some local officials are fair and honest and do not leave anything behind, while some officials are mediocre and incompetent, so they do not know how to govern and the society is dark.

But if there is a law, and everything is done according to the law, then it is not subject to the will of man.

But the rule of law country, that is the Qin state, the Qin state with the rule of law, too strict, the second died. The Han learned a lesson, governed the country with Confucianism, and influenced with benevolence and righteousness, and survived for 400 years under the coordination of law and external Confucianism and internal law.

Liu Wei came from later generations, and he hoped that the country would be governed by the legal system, but today's Han Dynasty does not allow it. Changing the law may lead to a country becoming stronger, or it may lead to a country entering the abyss, not to mention that Liu Wei is not unified now, and there are many princes outside, transforming the country from the Confucian rule of benevolence and righteousness to the rule of law of the Legalists, Liu Wei can't think of it. And today's Han may not need to change the law, the main contradiction in today's society is the family, the meal must be one bite at a time, and the transformation must come step by step, without the slightest mistake.

The establishment of the Ministry of Commerce is the first step for Liu Wei to reform the law and strengthen the country.

Mi Zhu is still preconceived in the end, and the development of business, he fundamentally thinks that it will not work.

Legal restrictions, he can't think of this at all, try to ask the whole country has no sound law, is the co-governance of Confucianism and law, the two are coordinated with each other, sometimes Confucianism will override the law, and in business legislation, how can he think of it?

But if this is really done, the development of commerce will promote the economy of the Great Han, and on the other hand, the Great Han is introducing a commercial code to limit the unstable factor of merchants.

The idea is undoubtedly feasible.

Liu Wei has not told anyone else about this plan, Mi Zhu is the first to know, Mi Zhu is a business giant, let him set up a business department, first of all, he knows how to develop business. Secondly, Mi Zhu, who started in business, understands what are the unstable factors of businessmen. And the Ministry of Commerce under him will eliminate these harms to the country according to these hazards of merchants and adapt measures to local conditions.

And Mi Zhu's loyalty and benevolence strengthened Liu Zhu's thoughts.

"Your Majesty, dare to ask where this commercial code is now, can you give the grass people a look?" Mi Zhu looked at Liu Wei expectantly and said.

Liu Wei laughed and said, "Isn't this commercial code not in your heart?" You started in business, so you naturally understand the dangers of businessmen, and I plan to compile a commercial code with you as the main person, and the content of the code is to eliminate the harm of businessmen to the country for me! ”

Mi Zhu's expression was stunned, and he said in surprise: "Thank you, Your Majesty, the grass people will definitely compile this commercial code!"

The first commercial law, if it is from his Mi Zhu's hand, it will definitely go down in history in the future!

Liu Wei waved his hand and said: "This I still have to discuss with the ministers, and after the discussion, the articles of association will be set, and then the commercial code will be compiled, and the business will be developed after that.
