Chapter 105 Statements about the Feudal South China Sea
"Feudal South China Sea......" Zhao Jiaren repeated Xu Yuanzhi's words flatly.
The former Shangshu suddenly visited and abruptly raised the topic of the feudal South China Sea, and Zhao Jiaren was indeed a little overwhelmed. But only slightly.
As Xu Yuanzhi said, Zhao Jiaren did think about the problem of the feudal South China Sea. During the period of national expansion, feudalism was actually a very effective means. Needless to say, the Shang Dynasty and the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period of the Zhou Dynasty were China's great feudal era. According to the estimation period, the Shang and Zhou dynasties have a period of about 1,600 years.
It was generally accepted that the era of unification of Europe was the era of the Roman Empire, and that what was later called Charlemagne's Empire united was only Western Europe.
European historians regard the fall of the Western Roman Empire as the end of European antiquity. The fall of the Western Roman Empire is thought to have been in 476 or 480. By 2010, Europe had been divided for 1530 years.
After the death of Charlemagne's son Louis in 840, the feudal system officially became the institution in Western Europe. In 843, his three sons decided to divide the Frankish Empire into three parts in the Treaty of Verdun. The empire was later subdivided several times in the partition of PrΓΌm in 855, the Treaty of Melson in 870, and the Treaty of Libermont in 880. Zhao Jiaren feels that once this system is established, it will continue to move forward. After that, Europe officially entered the feudal era from sub-feudalism to more sub-feudalism. The tide has come and Europe can no longer be united. From 840 to 2010, there were also 1270.
Purely from the perspective of the feudal era, the time of the feudal era in China is not necessarily shorter than that in Europe.
Zhao Jiaren believes that culture is not simply literacy, nor is it calligraphy, painting, and calligraphy. Rather, it is a certain understanding of history, politics, institutions, and philosophy (logic), and finally forms an understanding. Therefore, New China is undoubtedly the most cultured stage in China's past dynasties, and there is no one.
Based on the unparalleled cultural level of Zhao Jiaren's Zhao official family in this era, Zhao Jiaren has never been able to make up his mind to implement the feudal system. Because of the long time, the bloody wars between the Chinese countries in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period have become the glorious history of princes and generals. At every turn, 'beheading X 10,000', 'beheading XX million', 'pit X 10,000', 'pit XX million', 'beheading', 'slaughtering', 'slaughtering XX city', these figures are all footnotes to the merits of those famous people.
No one seems to care that the numbers represent living human beings.
If those are so far away that it is difficult to imagine the personal era at that time, before Zhao Jiaren traveled, there were still people who experienced World War I and World War II in the world. There are many people who lived through the World War II era, and there are many more photos and films about the Second World War.
In such a divided era, the wars between countries were bloody and brutal. On the ground, on the water, in the sky, under water, mankind has developed all kinds of weapons, ballistic missiles and nuclear weapons have been put into war. After World War II, under the terrifying nuclear balance, humanity finally entered an era of peace without all-out war between the great powers.
With Zhao Jiaren's cultural level and sense of responsibility, he can't make the decision to divide the seal no matter what.
A smart person like Xu Yuanzhi just looked at Zhao Jiaren's expression and sighed: "It seems that the official family has considered this matter." β
Zhao Jiaren nodded, "It is precisely because I have thought about it that I feel that the feudal South China Sea is very inappropriate." A large number of plantations were established, and the land was good or bad for the state. In the future, those guys who have made a lot of money refuse to return it, and all kinds of struggles arise, which is a legal lawsuit. Speaking of heaven, it is nothing more than a local rebellion. The system of feudalism determined that those plantations were developing rapidly, and they were drawing the ground as a prison, manipulating prices at will, and cutting the feudal domain in the future. The countries that are divided into feuds are all legitimate, and if the imperial court wants to cut down the feudal domain, the blood that will definitely be killed will be shed. And the accumulated resentment can't be eliminated for a hundred years. β
Zhao Jiaren went to college and worked in the United States. He himself had come into contact with many of the 'remnants' of the Confederates. These people just thought that they did not belong to the United States of America, but to the Confederate. The Civil War ended in 1865, and by 2015, 150 years later, the resentment had not yet dissipated.
If it is divided, when it comes to cutting the feudal domain, it will be a brutal civil war between the Zhao family. The war at that time would definitely tear the Zhao family to pieces. Thinking of such a future, Zhao Jiaren somewhat understands why the influence of the feudal system in all dynasties has become less and less since the Qin Dynasty.
Those who decided the fate of the country, as long as they thought of the inevitable results brought about by the feudal system, would rather endure the many problems of the great unified country than choose the old path of the feudal system.
I don't know a lot of thoughts in Zhao Jiaren's mind, Xu Yuanzhi just relied on Zhao Jiaren's words to analyze, and the old man said slowly: "Do you really think that the interests of those plantations can be so great? β
"Of course." Zhao Jiaren glanced at the pair of white-edged black cloth shoes with rubber soles on Xu Yuanzhi's feet, "Master Xu, let you not wear rubber-soled shoes, do you think you can adapt?" β
Xu Yuanzhi didn't expect Zhao Jiaren to ask this seemingly off-topic question. After thinking for a moment, the former head of the household department completely understood what Zhao Jiaren meant. He shook his head and sighed, "Definitely not." β
"My Great Song Dynasty now has a population of 80 million. One piece of palm oil soap a month for a person. A year is a billion fast soap. How much does it cost. If this money was used by the post-feudal countries to buy weapons and prepare armies. Once the feudal domain is cut, what will it look like? β
After listening to Zhao Jiaren's description of the future, Xu Yuanzhi nodded slightly. As long as the thinking can be improved, Xu Yuanzhi has a strong understanding of what Zhao Guanjia described.
After nodding, Xu Yuanzhi asked, "Official, what is the matter with the joint price control you are talking about?" β
"Since the Great Song Dynasty on our land must use these, the higher the price of those countries that are divided, the more they will earn. A piece of soap costs an extra penny, which is a billion yuan. They don't have any brains. β
"Haha." Xu Yuanzhi laughed. As a head of the household, he has a very clear understanding of the difficulties of taxation. After laughing, Xu Yuanzhi got up, "Official, I originally thought that it could be divided in the South China Sea. However, after listening to the official story, I now feel that it is a good thing to open up a large plantation. Moreover, the government has determined that the land is state-owned, and future disputes are limited after all. Even if there are small people who do something, everyone knows that we are officials, they are bandits, and they are thieves. And so he took his leave. β
When Xu Yuanzhi was sent away, there was another meeting in the distant Sriwijaya. The Song army did not use the Juban team to death, since it had already made great efforts when attacking the water royal city, the juban team was repaired when attacking the land royal city.
For the comprehensive victory of the Great Song, the Shiban team is very confident. At this time, they held a meeting of cadres about their future.
"Ladies and gentlemen, His Highness Hu has promised you, as long as you fight well, your family, your children and grandchildren will get a job on the plantations all over the South China Sea. In addition to the normal salary, this errand is rewarded every year. Her Royal Highness Hu is a close minister of the Zhao official family, and she has never broken her promise. Sasuke Takeda wrapped gauze around his left arm and said to the cadres with a full heart.
"Can you give land?" A cadre asked.
Zhao Naruto, who was sitting next to Sasuke Takeda, glared at the cadre of the Juban team, and then said in a tone of hatred: "You are now a samurai!" Why do you still want to be a farmer! β
Hearing the word samurai, the Juban cadre smiled embarrassedly. The title of samurai was reserved for Japan, and the Juban team had served the Great Song for more than twenty years, and they knew that such a position did not exist in the Great Song Dynasty. After laughing, the warrior said, "I heard that after the soldiers of the Great Song Dynasty retire, they will divide the land. Can we also give the land? β
Sasuke Takeda shouted, "You are samurai!" Warrior! On the plantations in the south, it will be the natives who will work, the barbarians. Your job is to manage the barbarians inside the plantation and fight the barbarians outside the plantation. Dividing the land and farming, it is also a shame that you can be so willing to fall! β
"Then aren't we the earth?" A cadre asked with a twinkle in his eyes. The name of the land is the name in the Japanese system, and the name means that it is in charge of the existence of common land.
"I think it's the Lord of the Hundred Names, right?" Other views were also made. The lord of the hundred names is probably a rich peasant.
"I repeat, you are samurai!" Zhao Naruto shouted.
Hu Yuelian, who was sitting in the center, put away the long sword that had been wiped, raised her head and looked ahead. Carving a boat for a sword is a negative term, but Hu Yuelian wasted a lot of effort after the war to find the location of her carved traces. It also took a lot of effort to salvage the overboard sword near that position. Putting the wiped sword beside him, Hu Yuelian said, "Naruto." If some people don't want to fight, don't force them. β
"Hey!" Zhao Naruto immediately bowed his head and replied.
After all, it was a meeting after the victory, and everyone sat more casually. Hu Yuelian said happily: "In the Wa Kingdom, I still talk about granting fields. In Da Song, we have made more progress. All the land in the world is owned by the state, and you can apply to farm and apply to become a farmer. But the land is not privately owned. β
Everyone is not stupid, especially these gang who come out to lick the blood. Of course, there are some people who are addicted to fighting, making money, and enjoying simple and direct carnal desires. There are also some people who still want to be able to earn their family business. Land is undoubtedly the best family business. After listening to Hu Yuelian's simple and straightforward narration, these people all knew that what Zhao Mingren said would probably not change.
Looking at the expressions of these people, Hu Yuelian continued: "Since the land is state-owned, the official positions on the land are the positions within the imperial court planning. In other words, you are not the subordinates of the plantation owners below, but the subordinates of the Great Song Dynasty. Our Great Song Dynasty court treats his subordinates very well. β
"We will be the courtiers of the Great Song Dynasty?" The Japanese people naturally look at the problem from the perspective of the Japanese people.
"That's right. is a foreign minister, and he is also a courtier of the Great Song Dynasty. Hu Yuelian said it rightly. Since the integration of officials, theoretically, he is a lieutenant chief, a pavilion chief, and he can also become a prime minister through promotion. The door from the lower floor to the upper floor of the Great Song Dynasty was finally opened.
"What His Highness Hu said is true!" Zhao Naruto was the first to respond. He was the first person in the Juban team to follow the Great Song Dynasty, and he was also the one who made the most profits. Now Naruto's family is in charge of the plantations in Siam and in the plantations of Luzon. Naruto also hired many Wakuni who had fled from the countryside due to poverty or debt, working on plantations. Zhao Naruto's dream was to one day gain the power to open up plantations in the South China Sea. He also felt very helpless about his subordinates' choice to cling to the traditions of the Japanese Kingdom and not lose them.
The Wa Kingdom has its own national conditions, and the Great Song Dynasty has its own rules of the Great Song Dynasty. The two are not to be confused.
