Chapter 207: The knife rests on the neck
Qin Shaoyou smiled, from Yang Jiong's point of view, it is understandable, they are not ordinary people, the Shence Mansion is in Hongnong, of course we have to consult their meaning.
But for Qin Shaoyou, this is not the case at all.
He could almost imagine that if he discussed the military and political affairs of Tiance Mansion with Yang Jiong, the result would probably be to continue the previous imperial court's approach to Hongnong.
It is nothing more than appointing a few officials, but the governing power is almost in the hands of large and small scholars, nothing is wrong with levying grain and husbands, what Tiance Mansion can do, it is estimated that it is to repair bridges, build roads, maintain river embankments, set up a few schools, and no matter how much, it can be regarded as crossing the line.
This kind of structure is the norm, and it has been like this for thousands of years.
But in fact, the efficiency is extremely low, almost everything, need to rely on the Shi clan to have a hand, the people only know the master of the Shi clan, but do not know the Shen Ce Mansion, a year, collect more than 100,000 loads of grain, and you have nothing to do.
Compared with the current situation in Mengjin, it is really far away, Mengjin's model is that the Shence Mansion controls all aspects of things, and the Shence Mansion almost directly contacts the households, and everything the households do is closely related to the Shence Mansion, and any decision of the Shence Mansion is also very important to the people.
It seems that there is a bit of a centralized taste, but in fact, the efficiency can be greatly increased, breaking the pastoral life, but it can gather people together and produce more efficiently, as for controlling the people, it is also a matter of course, if you don't control them, there will always be the scholars to control, if you don't let them produce greater productivity, the scholars will naturally use their labor to make profits, if you don't recruit these strong men to strengthen themselves, the scholars will recruit them to be private soldiers.
To put it bluntly, the structure of the place is now threefold. The first is the government, the second is the scholars, and the third is the common people, there is almost no connection between the government and the common people, and this link is the scholars, and the scholars are both important talent training bases for the government. Good talents are provided to the government, and at the same time, the common people, who are taxed and managed on behalf of the government. In Mengjin, there is no status of the scholar clan, there is no agent between the Shence Mansion and the common people, and there will naturally be no loss in the middle, and this loss is extremely amazing, because the government is supposed to levy a hundred catties of grain. And the scholars often need to levy 300 catties of grain, only 100 catties of real grain to be handed over to the government, this is still the foot of the Son of Heaven, the wealthy family in Kanto, in fact, it is also quite a rule, if it is changed to some other places, that kind of heroism, is to expand the loss to ten times also.
The Divine Sense Mansion does not need such an agent. That is to say, the scholars are in the Mengjin model. There will be no place to stand, this is the reason why Qin Shaoyou made up his mind, he pursed his lips and smiled: "Yang Gong, it is a matter of course to implement benevolent governance. It's just that the Divine Wisdom Mansion can't leak it at will, otherwise, it will inevitably be spread by others. ”
Yang Jiong's face changed slightly. He has always been very polite, in fact, Yang Jiong is a good person, and he treats people kindly, originally he came out to negotiate, how much thought that Qin Shaoyou would give him a little face, who knows that people don't know what their faces are at all, Yang Jiong was suddenly angry, and he couldn't help but look at Wang Ju.
Wang Ju smiled bitterly in his heart, and said in his heart, Uncle Shi, what do you think I do? There is a debtor and a debtor! He smiled and said, "Uncle Shi, what does His Highness mean, uh...... It means......" He couldn't think of any words and phrases for a while, and Qin Shaoyou said it so clearly, he almost pointed at Yang Jiong's head and scolded, what kind of thing are you, and you are worthy of talking about military politics with me. I've said all this kind of thing, how should I embellish it.
Yang Jiong smiled coldly, knowing that Wang Ju was also wearing the same pants as Qin Shaoyou, so he suddenly got up and said, "In this case, the old man understands what His Highness means, and it is not too early to leave." ”
Lift your leg to go.
Qin Shaoyou hurriedly grabbed him and said, "Yang Gong sit down again, I have good tea here, a well-prepared super princess tea." ”
Yang Jiong's face turned pale: "I don't think it's necessary, tea, it's better to drink your own, other people's tea, you can't get used to it." ”
Wang Ju hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Uncle Shi is angry, His Royal Highness is a martial artist, maybe he can't speak, in fact, His Royal Highness wants to be friends with Uncle Shi, but he has some military and political ......."
Yang Jiong saluted Qin Shaoyou: "Your Highness, farewell." ”
So he walked away.
………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
Yang Jiong was really angry, in fact, he was really worried, because Meng Jin's model was terrible, he saw it very clearly, Meng Jin from the inside to the outside, there was no place for the Shi clan, there, the peasants were directly controlled by all aspects of the Shen Ce Mansion, they read, they farmed, they worked, almost all of them were inseparable from the Shen Ce Mansion, as for the merchants, they were just their lubricant, and inside, it was more like a huge manor, where there was a foothold for the Shi clan.
He was afraid that Qin Shaoyou would push this to Hongnong, if this was the case, then what should the Yang family do with so much land, so many farmers, and so many private soldiers?
Since Qin Shaoyou is unwilling to talk, his attitude is naturally self-evident, this is a fundamental conflict of interests, he is already about to see the red with a bayonet, and everything he talks about is false.
In Hongnong, there are still many people looking forward to his reply, Yang Jiong has long had no intention of staying here, and when he left the Shence Mansion, he ordered his followers to return to his hometown.
Qin Shaoyou and Wang Ju stayed in the middle hall, Wang Ju just smiled bitterly, he couldn't help but stroke his forehead: "In the past, I assassinated Wu Sansi and was caught by the seas in various states, but now I follow His Royal Highness, I am afraid that from now on, many people will break off with their students." ”
Qin Shaoyou didn't comfort him, he gently put his finger on the case, thoughtfully, and said, "What is this, we are doing the right thing." ”
This sentence hits Wang Ju's heart.
We're doing the right thing.
In addition to the grace of knowing the encounter, there is also the feeling accumulated in ordinary life, and the reason why Wang Ju can resolutely stand on Qin Shaoyou's side, I am afraid that this is the only reason.
Meng Jin's model made Yang Jiong clearly see a new world, and he now knows that the original crowd gathered, division of labor and cooperation, its production efficiency can be many times that of self-sufficiency, the original people who work together, and then use some knowledgeable people to lead, what they make will be several times better than self-sufficiency, relying on their own craftsmanship. It turns out that many inconspicuous things, such as the most common cloth, small households sit alone in their own homes to weave, not only poor quality, poor color, a person a year, can weave dozens of feet is good. However, when people gather to buy or customize, or improve better textile machines, a person's output, evenly spread, can reach hundreds or even thousands of feet, and because there are special personnel to design, the color is not much brighter.
What a thousand people used to do, now only one or two hundred people can be done, and the income is better, so many people can free up their hands to do other livelihoods, as long as people gather, everything can be produced, tea is like this, porcelain is like this, firecrackers are like this, tea oil is like this, fur is like this, wood is like this, everything is like this, because large-scale production, more wood and iron tools are needed, so these two industries are more vigorous, and the mass production of iron tools can be accompanied by the provision of better agricultural tools, Better farm tools are not only cheaper, but also often more efficient, and now there are farmers in Mengjin, but the farmers here are often responsible for dozens of acres of land by one person, not because they are strong, but because their tools are better, and they have cattle and horses and other animal power instead of more manpower.
Wang Ju is almost certain that the value generated by the entire Mengjin is higher than the value generated by a few Hongnong counties, a small county is worth dozens of counties, and now, since His Royal Highness is sealed in Hongnong, what reason does he have to compromise with the family, is it still to let Hongnong produce self-sufficient production on the old model? That's a pity, it's a tyrannical thing.
But if the entire Hongnong County can reach the level of a small Mengjin County, what does this mean?
Wang Ju didn't dare to think about it, he only knew that he was doing the right thing, no matter how much resistance there was, he had to give it a try.
"Your Highness, it seems that Hongnong's side is not negotiating, so ...... next"
Qin Shaoyou sighed, he couldn't help but take a sip of tea and pondered for a moment: "Right now, it seems that there is no other way, just fight them and directly crush them into powder." ”
Grind into powder.
Wang Ju was dumbfounded, these people are scholars, do they want to be strong? Doesn't His Highness know how big the energy of these people is, once they move, it will be an uncontrollable situation, and they haven't digested Hongnong, does His Highness want to rely on a small Mengjin County to fight against the entire world's scholars? Even if it is the Guanlongmen valve, although he likes to see the bad luck of the Kwantung Shi clan, he never wants Qin Shaoyou to set a precedent of directly attacking the Shi clan with bloody means, after all, you can do this today, and if you can get away with it after doing it, who knows that tomorrow, this knife will be on your neck?
