86_86695 Wang Shuhui is a materialist. His view of history is a materialist view of history.

He agrees with a statement made by the famous theorist Ma Qianpao. According to Comrade Ma Qianpu's explanation of historical materialism, the reason why historical materialism is a scientific view of history is that historical materialism studies the objective process of historical development. That is, it is the study of a simple, historical process of how it progresses from one thing to another. To put it simply, historical materialism studies the question of "how to do it".

As a materialist, as a person with a scientific materialist view of history, Wang Shuhui believes that there is no subjectivity in the development of history. It is a pure, objective process.

"A materialist in an ancient agrarian society". It's a simple declarative sentence with no fancy embellishments. If, by chance, there was a materialist in ancient society, it would not be a big deal.

But, as mentioned in the previous chapters of this book, a materialist industrialist who has traveled through the gate of time and space to the ancient agrarian society, and who wields great power, has absolutely the same effect as throwing a Tyrannosaurus rex into the crowd, a mad hungry wolf into the sheepfold, and a large pervert into the Japanese women's bathhouse.

Just when Wang Shuhui was in his reception room, discussing the general trend of the world with Gu Junen, Song Xiance and Niu Jinxing. As the Baath Army drove the ass of the routs and bandits, it was stationed in various villages and towns around the area of influence of the Renaissance Society; With the working group of the Renaissance Society, the troops were stationed in these villages and towns.

In these villages and towns, all the big landlords who own more than 30 acres of land and do not participate in labor at all. In addition to the deterrence of the bayonets of the Renaissance Army, the "voluntary" procedures for the transfer of land without compensation. The vast majority of the other squatters were all accused of "banditry" and "rebellion" by the working group, deprived of their land, and organized a criticism meeting to criticize them.

Some people may say that people may not really have "bandits" or "rebellions". Readers who ask this kind of question would be a bit naïve. The gun is in my hand, who is a bandit or not, who rebels or not, it's not up to me to have the final say.

Just when Wang Shuhui took a gentle and elegant face, he listened carefully to the opinions of Gu Junen, Song Xiance and Niu Jinxing on the general trend of the world. Within Zhijiang County, the corpses of more than three-digit landlords and accomplices of the lackeys were drifting in the wind.

Speaking of which, Gu Junen, Song Xiance and Niu Jinxing, who are discussing the general trend of the world with Wang Shuhui, according to the standards of the Revival Society, they are all going to the gallows.

"In my opinion, I'm afraid it's almost time for the world to be in chaos and compete with each other!" After Song Xiance finished saying the rebellious words that shocked Gu Junen and Niu Jinxing, he carefully observed Wang Shuhui's expression.

Because of Wang Shuhui's personality, Song Xiance didn't see anything wrong with his wooden face. Although there is no kind of surprise expression when you meet a confidant and hear a thoughtful word. However, Wang Shuhui still nodded his head lightly with an amplitude that could be observed with the naked eye, just like he had heard the views of Gu Junen and Niu Jinxing before.

Compared with Gu Junen and Niu Jinxing, Song Xiance's specialty lies in being good at figuring out people's hearts. After so many days of inspection and visits to the Revival Society, Song Xiance, who fully understood the huge power of the Revival Society, already completely thought that Wang Shuhui was a guy who wanted to rebel.

Song Xiance came to a very rational conclusion based on the materials he had. That is, Wang Shuhui has already laid a solid foundation for his rebellion, whether in terms of theoretical preparation, organizational preparation, or strength preparation.

Song Xiance is a guy who is well versed in the "face-to-person" method of "listening to his words and watching his deeds". In his opinion, the revival society led by Wang Shuhui showed the characteristics of a rebel in both "words" and "deeds". He would not be fooled by the illusions of "words of saints" and "allusions to the sages" in the Revival materials.

From the perspective of general human nature, he believes that Wang Shuhui has made such a comprehensive and detailed preparation that has never been heard or seen in the history books. If it weren't for the rebellion, if it wasn't for the greater good, it would be completely impossible.

Although Song Xiance has not been engaged in special economic activities. However, he knows that in everything people do, they must pursue the input and output are proportional. He hadn't seen anyone who would actually lose money and make a profit. Wang Shuhui invested in such a big, unbelievable book, at least to achieve a kind of armed separation, to be a soil emperor, in order to be regarded as a direct proportion of input and output.

Therefore, in the past few days, although he was in front of Gu Junen and Niu Jinxing, he still looked like he was trying to find out the signs that Wang Shuhui did not want to rebel. However, in his own heart, he has completely decided that Wang Shuhui is going to rebel.

Because his mother, younger brother, and wife have all been taken to Wangfu Town by the Fuxing Society for resettlement. Therefore, in despair, Song Xiance developed a speculator's mentality. He wanted to get ahead of Gu Junen and Song Xiance and curry favor with Wang Shuhui. In order to gain a higher status in the revival organization in the future.

Although Wang Shuhui is a very incompetent guy for interpersonal relationships. However, his grasp of historical figures is still relatively in place.

Song Xiance, in his impression, belongs to the kind of unreliable character who is full of cowhides. As a shoddy prophecy that can come up with such a shoddy proverb as the "Eighteen Sons Master Artifact", he came to fool Li Zicheng and encourage Li Zicheng. Wang Shuhui would not believe it at all. This cannot but be said to be a stereotype in the historical sense influencing Wang Shuhui.

Therefore, after Wang Shuhui listened to Song Xiance's "shocking words", he was very calm. He sat on the chair and tilted his head slightly in the direction of Song Xiance. said that he was ready to listen carefully to what Song Xiance was going to "put" (fart) later.

"Emperor Daojun succeeded the emperor with side branches, which is the root cause of the chaos in the world."

"Since Jiajing, the three generations of emperors of Zhu Ming have all been mediocre and incompetent. Emperor Jiajing was obsessed with the immortal road and ignored the government, Yidi invaded Beijing in the north, and the Japanese robbed the south of the Yangtze River in the south; Emperor Longqing was obsessed with beauty, neglected state affairs, court affairs, and entrusted matters to the cabinet; Emperor Wanli did not go to court for 30 years, which was unprecedented, and the history books were rare. With these three faint monarchs holding the authority of the country, the world has long been full of holes. ”

"Now, Zhu Mingwai can't resist humiliation. The northern captives and the eastern captives ravaged the nine sides, with the defeat of Salhu in front and the loss of Shenyang in the back. It is impossible to accept the mandate of heaven and appease the people. In the past, there was a famine in Huaibei, and now there is a breach of the Yellow River. The small people of Shengdou died either at the hands of barbarians, or died at the wrath of the heavens. ”

"I thought that the Zhu Ming court had been convicted of heaven. Only then did the barbarians from all directions attack, and all kinds of disasters arose. Now that the people are in dire straits, the court is forced to raise taxes without sympathy! This is not a sign of chaos in the world, and what is it! ”

Song Xiance originally prepared this set of rhetoric based on the information of the imperial court mansion that he came into contact with at the Fuxing Association in the past few days, in order to get close to Wang Shuhui and increase his weight in Wang Shuhui's heart. However, not only in the process of collecting materials, but also now, after he made this set of rhetoric public, he already felt that his rhetoric was no longer to cater to Wang Shuhui.

Not only Gu Junen and Niu Jinxing, who heard this, but also Song Xiance himself, also sincerely believed in this set of rhetoric.

Gu Junen and Niu Jinxing, including Song Xiance himself, were all very shocked by these words. However, Wang Shuhui disagreed with Song Xiance's words.

In Wang Shuhui's view, the fall of the Ming Dynasty was an objective process. Under the combined influence of subjective and objective factors such as the climate of the Xiaoice River, excessive concentration of land, foreign invasion, and the corruption and degeneration of the ruling class, it is normal for a feudal dynasty to come to an end

Love.

Judging from the viewpoint of historical materialism, in China's more than 2,000 years of feudal history, all feudal dynasties were like the Ming Dynasty, under the joint influence of various subjective and objective factors that were the same in general but different in detail, from establishment, to stability, from stability, to prosperity, from prosperity, to collapse, and finally to extinction after the society developed to the limit of what the feudal land system could carry.

After the demise of one feudal dynasty, another feudal dynasty will be re-established on the basis of the release of the pressure of social development caused by the natural and unnatural attrition of the population. This is the basic law of the "cycle of chaos" in the history of Chinese feudal society.

Specific to the Ming Dynasty, how it perished, this is an objective and realistic process. As a time-traveler from later generations, Wang Shuhui already knew.

Song Xiance's remarks just clash with Wang Shuhui's view of historical materialism. He started from the perspective of idealism, first set up a hypothesis about the demise of the Ming Dynasty, and subjectively found reasons for the demise of the Ming Dynasty.

From the perspective of subjectivism, he blamed the emperor for the imminent demise of the Ming Dynasty. Then, from the standpoint of idealism, he blamed the foreign invasion and the occurrence of natural disasters on the emperor's anger from heaven and the disaster from heaven. Thus we have come to the conclusion that "the world is about to be in chaos" and is pure and pure, without any objective basis.

Although Song Xiance's conclusion that "the world is about to be in chaos" is consistent with the results of historical development. However, Song Xiance's approach was still using idealistic thinking to explain the impending demise of the Ming Dynasty. At the end of the day, he's doing a "why" thing.

Although Song Xiance and Wang Shuhui's conclusions are the same, they are completely opposite in nature. Wang Shuhui analyzes "how (to)" from the perspective of historical materialism, while Song Xiance explains "why" from the standpoint of subjective idealism.

It is precisely because of this essential conflict between the two that Wang Shuhui disagrees with Song Xiance's flattering statement. It was this disdain that made him reveal his true feelings for the first time after listening to Song Xiance's words, with a contemptuous smile on his face.

In the eyes of Gu Junen, Song Xiance and Niu Jinxing, Wang Shuhui was smiling. In fact, Wang Shuhui's smile is a mockery of Song Xiance's subjective idealistic thinking in the process of discussing the situation in the late Ming Dynasty.

Of course, although I completely disagree with the perspective of Song Xiance's discussion of the shape of the late Ming Dynasty. However, Wang Shuhui still agrees with Song Xiance's conclusion that "the world is about to be in chaos". In particular, unlike the vast majority of Chinese in the late Ming Dynasty, Song Xiance saw at least three important factors that threatened the Ming dynasty's rule: foreign invasions, financial crises, and natural disasters.

Therefore, he was not prepared to refute Song Xiance's words. On the contrary, he also had to provide Gu Junen, Song Xiance and Niu Jinxing with a factual basis to support this assertion.

Wang Shuhui immediately asked the clerks around him to bring over the carefully classified imperial court newspapers collected by the Fuxing Society. Take out the statistical tables and information related to Song Xiance's words, related to foreign invasions, natural disasters, and additional taxes, and attach the relevant news to the newspaper. Wang Shuhui said to Song Xiance:

"Sir really has a talent for the world. We, the Revival Society, have collected rumors from the Imperial Court and various provinces in recent years. We have analyzed and summarized these newspapers and materials, and we have indeed found that the number and total amount of barbarian invasions and rebellions, natural disasters and taxes mentioned by the gentleman are showing a trend of increasing year by year, and this trend has a tendency to become more and more intense! ”

Gu Junen, Song Xiance and Niu Jinxing, although they lack the statistical habits and abilities of industrial society. However, as a scholar with a considerable cultural foundation and understanding, after reading these statistical materials and tables that Wang Shuhui simplified into and can understand and operate even the members of the Renaissance Association who have just completed literacy, not only can they quickly understand and grasp them, but also these specific numbers and real evidence, after combining them with their daily news and feelings, bring them a sense of clarity and enlightenment.

At the beginning, Gu Junen and Niu Jinxing still felt that Song Xiance was a bit deceitful. After Song Xiance said the analysis of the reason for "the world is about to be in chaos", they felt that Song Xiance was a little far-sighted, but also a little worried.

However, after listening to Song Xiance's words and seeing the specific materials provided by Wang Shuhui, a gloomy and cold feeling that penetrated the bone marrow instantly emerged from under the feet, along the feet of the two people, all the way up to their chests.

Not only Gu Junen and Niu Jinxing felt like this, but even Song Xiance himself felt a little frightened by his crow's mouth. I don't know if I don't see it, I was shocked when I saw it, the Ming Dynasty from the beginning of the Jiajing year to the year of the Apocalypse, in the past hundred years, there has basically been no peaceful life.

Especially since the middle of Wanli, whether it is a foreign invasion or internal turmoil, whether it is a flood or drought disaster or a plague and earthquake, it seems that all kinds of unfortunate things have erupted together as if they had been promised. Looking at these materials extracted from the imperial court newspaper and the local chronicles of individual states and counties, Gu Junen, Song Xiance and Niu Jinxing really felt a little creepy.

Their creepy people are not only because they see the actual evidence that the Ming Dynasty is going to perish, but also because of Wang Shuhui and the Fuxing Society's ability to analyze and see the truth of the matter from the fog, but also because they thought of the hint that Niu Venus did not answer at the beginning.

What kind of person and what kind of organization is this Wang Shuhui and his revival association? Do they really have the kind of unpredictable ghosts and gods, like the kind of legend, who can see the subtleties and "control the yin and yang and control the gods"? Is it precisely because Wang Shuhui has such an ability that he saw the future of "the world is about to be in chaos", so he began to prepare for rebellion early?

For a moment, the three young scholars were silent
