Li Shimin soon decided to support some businesses, if not for anything else, that is, to dilute the land wealth of these scholars. Pen "Qu" Pavilion www.biquge.info especially since Shi Bufan adopted this new so-called cooperative model, so that the people of the whole country can increase their grain production, and even produce a large number of people who are out of agricultural production, and these people will also become future industrial and commercial workers. Shi Bufan also explained that support can now start to support business, because this business foundation has begun to be gradually solidified. In particular, the adoption of a new agricultural management method has long been a corporatized management, but everyone is both a shareholder and an employee, so it is not so obvious for a while. In fact, this kind of cooperative has long been a farming company, but Shi Bufan has not publicly admitted it.

However, Shi Bufan now suggested that Li Shimin could properly support commerce, so that he could not only absorb those surplus laborers, but also dilute the land wealth of the Shi clan. At present, the scholars did not realize that the wealth brought by industry and commerce was much more than that of land, and even the products produced by industry and commerce had a high added value, much higher than the original products of agriculture, which was the added value of industry and commerce. At that time, the primitive manor economy of the scholars will inevitably be replaced by new productive forces, and in the end, once their economic foundation collapses, their cultural and political foundations will be seriously shaken, and their downfall will be called inevitable.

Many people may think that the so-called economic base determines the superstructure is not applicable in China, because China has always used the military as the basis of rule. However, in fact, maintaining the military also requires an economy, and in fact, the economic base also affects China's political trend. From the primitive Zen concession system to slavery, and even to feudalism, etc., the economic base is changing, and it is not that some people take it for granted that only the military is the core of ruling China. What Shi Bufan did was to change the economic base and directly disintegrate the Shi clan from the economic base, so that their political foundation would also be doomed to collapse.

Shi Bufan came to this Qianzhuang Federation to preside over instead of Qin Jiarui, Qin Jiarui is still in confinement!

"I will preside over this meeting in place of Miss Qin. Now I have received a private promise from the emperor that we, the Datang Money Village Association, will be responsible for supporting business and supporting business development. Especially in the future, people everywhere will adopt a new cooperative model, so that they will definitely have a lot of surplus labor. At that time, we can use venture capital to drive employment by supporting others to start businesses, expand the scale, absorb more labor, maintain the stability of our Datang, and strive for a smooth transition for the people. In this meeting, we discussed the future planning and coordination to avoid vicious competition and problems! Shi Bufan said.

Shi Bufan looked below, and then found that there was one person missing, and asked, "Why didn't Zhu Dongjia come?" ”

"Oh, what about the headache of the Zhu Dong family recently? Recently, he had just transformed the pledge bank into a business method like the Qin family's bank, and no longer operated a pledge pawn. However, recently, as Zhu Dongjia made a lot of money by speculating in silver with Shi Yuanwailang some time ago, he has a big mind. He planned to marry his son. ”

Shi Bufan asked: "How can you marry a wife and use such trouble?" With the current net worth of all of you, can you use it so much? ”

"Shi Yuan Wailang, what the Zhu Dong family wants to marry their son is the daughter of a scholar clan, it seems that there is a surname Xun. The Xun family heard that the ancestor was Cao Cao's adviser Xun Yu, and his status was extremely noble. So they asked Zhu Dongjia for a bride price of 30,000 yuan before they were willing to 'get married'! ”

Shi Bufan then asked: "Xun family? In the past few hundred years, except for some famous names during the Jin Dynasty, I don't seem to have heard of this Xun family at any other time, right? It seems that the Xun family has not had any celebrities in the past few hundred years, right? “

"Yes! The Xun family has declined, just hanging a layer of scholar skin, but life is not very good. However, when many businessmen and some emerging families want to marry wives, they mostly ask for a lot of financial resources. And the Xun family heard that the Zhu family was a businessman, and they looked down on it very much. They even heard that the Zhu family had made a lot of money recently, so they asked for a bride price of 30,000 yuan! Although the Zhu family can take it out, they have all the money in the bank's reserves, and according to the iron-clad rules of our money bank federation, they cannot be moved and misappropriated at will. So Zhu Dongjia is worried? The real Zhu Dongjia can use less than 10,000 yuan, and the remaining 20,000 yuan, I don't know where to get it? ”

Shi Bufan scolded: "Play the piano indiscriminately!" Since your Xun family doesn't look down on this businessman, then don't let your daughter marry her! Not only do you want to marry in the past, but you look down on others, and even ask for so many bride prices, what is that? ”

"Hey, Shi Yuan Wailang, you may not know that many declining scholars now make a living by 'selling' their daughters?" Someone scoffed.

"Sell your daughter?" Shi Bufan is still a little puzzled.

After listening to these people's explanations, Shi Bufan finally knew what was going on with the so-called low-level scholars in the early Tang Dynasty. During the Tang Dynasty, many low-level scholars did not live well, not only the class between the Hanmen and the scholars has been solidified, but even the classes within the scholars have also begun to solidify, and it is difficult for the family as a whole to improve its status without major changes. Therefore, Shi Bufan came up with the futures market, so that many low-level scholars saw the opportunity of speculation, and they could expand and develop as soon as possible after obtaining a lot of wealth through speculation. Therefore, although everyone knows that the extraordinary futures market is a poison, but they know that it is very dangerous, there are still many people who are willing to come over and speculate. This is also the reason why the scholars agreed to develop a futures market.

However, although these low-level scholars have long since declined, they are arrogant and self-righteous. Look down on others, think that businessmen and those emerging poor people are some lowly people. Marrying them is "self-deprecation" and deliberately looking down on yourself. Because the so-called "families" of the two sides are different, they often want to marry the daughters of those declining scholars, and they also have to give the corresponding "loss money", that is, they have to get a lot of money at the time of the dowry, which is simply scary. This is called the difference between the two families, so if a person with a low family wants to marry a woman with a high family, he must "compensate" the money for the difference between the family's families.

Although the Tang Dynasty did not deliberately introduce policies to suppress merchants, the traditional habit of merchants has long been to keep merchants at the bottom of society. In addition, they do not have much political influence, which makes them even more unable to effectively protect their interests, but makes them even more lower.

As for the other side, those declining scholars still can't let go of the so-called nobility of their ancestors, and still stubbornly believe that they are noble. Of course, they have spent hundreds of years to create a noble class, not only ordinary people have been deceived, but they themselves have also been deceived, thinking that they are such "blue-blooded nobles", and they really think that they are extremely noble? Therefore, no matter how hard they live, they all think that their family is high and their status is very high.

"Hehe, there are many broken clans who are not living well, not as good as all of us here, and even we are not as good as the senior treasurers in your family. But they lack arrogance and think that their ancestors are noble, so they are still scholars and ask for a lot of dowries? “

Shi Bufan asked rhetorically: "That old Zhu is just such a cheap bone, spending money to marry such a daughter-in-law who can't afford to raise him?" When the time comes, they won't have to turn the sky upside down? What is the use of marrying such a daughter-in-law, neither to run the family nor to help with something. And she doesn't have a strong background relationship behind her, just a broken clan, what benefits can she bring him? Do you want to spend 30,000 yuan on a dowry to marry? ”

"But who made them nobles?"

Shi Bufan finally couldn't help but say, "Are your brains really in the water?" Just for such a so-called scholar identity, making such trouble? When the time comes, you will marry and go home, and I am afraid that some of you will suffer! If the family is powerful, then it's fine, but a broken clan, you actually spend so much money for this so-called face, so aren't you asking for yourself? Forget it, I won't say anything, you have this unjust money to go to waste, isn't it good for you to donate it to ordinary people? After spending so much money and marrying a great bodhisattva home, nothing can be done. Even, when the time comes, women still think how noble they are, thinking that they are studded with diamonds! A vase will be enough to make your family restless! ”

Shi Bufan is really speechless for this kind of person. It is already a dilapidated settlement, the standard of living has plummeted, and it has no political influence, and even the economy is very poor. But he dared to ask for such a high dowry, as if he had suffered a loss. Shi Bufan is really speechless for this kind of person. Who is not worthy of whom, not necessarily! If it is said that Shi Bufan is like this, he also roughly understands the situation of the old Zhu family, and it will be worth at least hundreds of millions in later generations. Of course, the vast majority of them are real estate and those who are industrialists, and not all of them are activity funds.

But this is enough for the upper echelons of society, but a broken scholar clan is not as good as the senior shopkeeper under Lao Zhu, and he dares to ask for 30,000 yuan as a dowry, which is simply unreasonable. Neither a political tycoon, nor a wealthy family, even in later generations, the marriage of those political families and business families does not even need to be so complicated, and the dowry will not be more than 100 million!

"Hey, for the sake of the face of this so-called scholar, the values of the entire society have been perverted. Do you really think that if you marry a scholar, people will look up to you? Sick! Shi Bufan scolded.

"Go tell Lao Zhu and let him stop this marriage! Face is earned by oneself, not given by others. Marrying a wife will not bring you real face and dignity. Otherwise, if you go bankrupt and marry this woman, then people will be more delicate and look down on you even more. With their old Zhu family's property, I'm afraid it will be easy to marry a daughter-in-law who is both beautiful and able to run the family. But what else does the daughter of the Xun family have besides the identity of the scholar on her head? Except for the identity of this clan, I'm afraid there is nothing else. If this kind of woman marries home, she is a loser! When the time comes, not only will you have to serve her as a cow and a horse, but she may not be able to look down on you and think that she is married! So there is no need, as long as you have money and self-confidence, then no one will look down on you. Don't think that marrying a noble wife will make people look up to you, and others will talk about you. Even if you do this, it will only make those nobles look down on you more, understand? Shi Bufan said.

Shi Bufan also understands this phenomenon, and it is also the same in many Wests, who like to marry the daughters of the so-called nobles, hoping to improve their status. This kind of aristocracy is not the so-called wealthy family, not the kind of Chinese "aristocracy" with money or power, but the kind of people with titles handed down in ancient times. The standard of nobility in China is to have power and wealth, but in the West, the standard of nobility is the so-called bloodline and title that have been handed down from ancient times, which are not linked to power and wealth.

However, many Westerners would rather spend huge sums of money to marry a useless nobleman than marry a capable daughter-in-law. Those in power are a kind of "nouveau riche" in their eyes, but those aristocrats do not think that they are in decline at all, even if they live a poor life, they also look down on those "tide makers", and think that they are nouveau riche. This kind of thinking actually existed during the Tang Dynasty in China.

Even if the Xun family declined, they thought that they were noblers and nobler than businessmen, and businessmen were just nouveau riche, so they had to "lose money" to them. This kind of is really speechless, a so-called scholar identity is so bullying? makes a lot of money, no matter how high the official is, he is all looked down upon by these scholars?

"These broken warriors, since they are so noble, then I will also let them be noble! Don't you want to be noble? Then I will find a way to give you a noble identity, so that you will be high and completely ungrounded, see what you do? Shi Bufan snorted coldly.

"I'll go to the palace again, you should dismiss the meeting first, this meeting will be postponed, and Miss Qin may preside over it herself." I'm going to solve this so-called Broken Clan matter! Shi Bufan said.

Shi Bufan knew that this was not only an ordinary matter, don't look at this matter as a trivial matter, but it would help to build the self-confidence of those businessmen. If this matter cannot be solved, then this will make the merchants unconfident and make them unconfident in front of the nobles. Perhaps only by giving them confidence in front of the nobles can that truly guarantee their interests. (To be continued.) )
