The new book "The World's Wealthy Merchants" has been uploaded, which is Rolls-Roy's transformation, and I ask you to support Rolls-Royce.
"The Wealthy Merchants of the World" is about the affairs of Zhezong and Huizong in the late Northern Song Dynasty, and it is about the story of a modern painter who traveled to the first year of the Northern Song Dynasty and Yuan Fu.
Unlike Rolls-Roy's previous five books that focused on major patterns and hegemony, "The World's Wealthy Businessmen" will be a small-scale book that focuses on the flow of life, and it is also Rolls-Roy's transformation. Of course, Luo Luo's book will not live to the end, otherwise he would not have chosen the beginning of the first year of Zhezong Yuanfu, Emperor Zhezong Yuanfu died in three years, and then our great artist Emperor Zhao Ji was enthroned......
And before the new book officially begins, Rolls-Royce has to make some explanations.
The protagonist of the new book is surnamed Wu, his name is ancient, and he is the eldest son in the family, so he can also be called Wu Dalang, but he is not the same as Wu Dalang who sells cooking cakes. Wu Haogu is the great-grandson of Wu Zongyuan, a great painter of the Northern Song Dynasty, a proper family of calligraphy and painting, and a painter from the Academy of Fine Arts in his previous life.
At the beginning of the Northern Song Dynasty, Luo Luo also read a lot, either promoted by the imperial examination, or on the road with military merits. After the promotion of the imperial examination, the new coup d'état law will be reformed, leading the people of the Great Song Dynasty onto the broad road of capitalism from top to bottom. And if the military merit rises, it is natural to seek to usurp the country.
However, Rollo wants to write a somewhat alternative luxury business path this time. In Rollo's view, it is very difficult for scholars to promote the development of capitalism, and even if one or two scholars and bureaucrats have such consciousness and cognition, they are actually very small in the face of the obstruction of the huge group of scholars.
After all, for scholars, it is the right way to gain political power through the imperial examination, and then exchange political power for economic benefits. This is the so-called book has its own thousand Zhongsu, and the book has its own golden house (this is what Zhao Heng said of the Great Song Dynasty Zhenzong).
In order to protect this right to "own the golden house in the book", how could the scholars who held the power of the Song Dynasty spare no effort to suppress the warriors who defended the country, and how could they vigorously support the rise of the merchant class and tolerate their transformation into a bourgeoisie that could threaten the power of the scholars? The merchant-heavy of the Song Dynasty was just a matter of the scholars and doctors who needed merchants to provide them with the wealth of raising soldiers and all kinds of pleasures.
So Luo Luo didn't plan to write a scholar doctor who could shake the entire imperial examination doctor group on his own this time, and of course he didn't want to write anything about iron-blooded strong Song...... Wealthy businessmen with tens of thousands of family assets may still collude with scholars and doctors in the Great Song Dynasty, and the martial artists who can fight well are simply suspects in the Great Song Dynasty who are plotting to usurp the throne, and it is too difficult to strengthen the Song Dynasty with iron and blood.
Therefore, Wu Haogu, the protagonist of "The World's Wealthy Merchants", is a businessman, a calligraphy and painting merchant who was reborn in Kaifeng, Tokyo, which was prosperous like a dream in the late Northern Song Dynasty.
However, fortunately, in the era of Wu Haogu's rebirth, there was also an artist emperor who was the first in the ages, and Wu Haogu brought his own superb painting skills in later generations. With such a golden finger, Wu Hao Gucai can gradually walk on the East Asian stage where Song, Liao, Jin, Xia, Goryeo, Japan, and Vietnam coexist, and become a big businessman between all parties, and finally create a new era of businessmen, and use the methods of wealthy businessmen to redeem the heavens of our China.
Although the Song Dynasty was a bit frustrated, it was a peak in the history of our Chinese civilization, and it was not very good militarily, but it was firmly ahead of the world in other aspects, and the ruling class of the Northern Song Dynasty was still the most moderate and enlightened in the history of Chinese feudal dynasties. If there was a time when the merchant class in China could develop and grow, it was probably only the Song Dynasty.
Another reason is that the Northern Song Dynasty was not a unified empire, Liao in the north, Xia in the northwest, Dali and Vietnam in the southwest, Jin in the future, and Goryeo across the sea from the Great Song Dynasty, and even Japan, which admired Chinese culture, were all members of the Chinese economic and cultural circle.
The Song Dynasty was in an era of coexistence of nations, and compared with a unified empire, the era of nations was undoubtedly conducive to the growth and development of merchants. The prosperity of commerce in the Song Dynasty also has a certain relationship with this.
If the coexistence of such nations can continue for another two or three hundred years, and even further give rise to a few merchant free states like Venice and Genoa, the flower of capitalism may not be able to bloom in the countries of East Asia.
At that time, the Great Song Dynasty will really rise to the top!
Okay, that's all for the new book. Rollo now assures everyone that he will try his best to write the book "The Wealthy Merchants of the World" to everyone's satisfaction.
