"I'm afraid this is not a dangerous place," Huang Naiming pointed out that since then he has brought a lot of benefits to Li Shun, and now that Li Shun is attacked on both sides, he will not make any trouble in the south: "What's more, don't the two brothers remember to touch the Empress Dowager Zhao?" ”

"The son of the master of man cannot keep the weight of gold and jade with a useless body." Shi Tianyu nodded in agreement and said, "What Brother Huang said is extremely true. ”

"Brother Shi forgot the second half of the sentence, what is the situation? My father is a minister, and I am the son of a minister, I have not made an inch, relying on my father Meng to be in a high position at a young age, how can I deal with myself in the future? Huang Naiming felt that if he went, he could make Li Shun believe in the sincerity of the south more, which would also be beneficial to promoting peace talks between the north and the south, and he also wanted to find an opportunity to observe the people's livelihood in the north and the armed forces on the other side.

After making up his mind, Huang Naiming went to see his father, and when he arrived, Huang Shi was discussing with Jin Qiude about supporting the north, and Huang Naiming heard Jin Qiude say to Huang Shi:

"Since you want to be a good person, you should be the end, and send a batch of arms and gunpowder directly to the north, so that you can better win the hearts of the people and show the broad-mindedness of the adults.

"Say what you like, those who know how to repay their kindness understand that we sell them arms to help them, King Shun and General Xu are such understanding people, and for those ungrateful guys, no matter how you help them, you are harboring evil intentions, even if you give them arms for nothing, they will also say that you have a conspiracy, and you are uneasy and kind." Huang Shi feels that the effect of collecting money or not is the same, gratitude will not be reduced by not collecting money, and slander and slander will not stop because of not collecting money: "So I don't do any lend-lease bills, if you want to take things from me, you have to pay money with one hand and deliver them with the other, besides, is Fujian and Guangdong very rich?" Now I can't make ends meet, that is, I want to give it for nothing, are the workers willing to do day labor for King Shun, and the factory owners are willing to donate money to the north, and give them weapons that may one day be used to fight us? ”

"Does this adult also want to discuss with the Provincial Secretary of State?"

"Of course, I dare to say that the Provincial Secretary of State will definitely pass by a high vote, and the truce means that we don't have to spend so much money to raise soldiers, and the people can go back to work and farm, and the doctors who restore commerce and trade with the north must not be able to ask for it." In fact, Huangshi has privately discussed the issue of aid with some congressmen, and if the North is willing to spend money on it, they don't have much objection, but if it is given for nothing, almost no one agrees.

After Jin Qiude left, Huang Naiming continued the topic just now: "Father, Uncle Jin's worries are not unreasonable, the truce and the resumption of trade can greatly increase our strength, and the child can imagine that as long as Li Shun reaches an agreement with us, a large amount of gold and silver from the north will pour into Fujian, so that our strength will increase dramatically, and it is likely that some people will think that we are taking advantage of the danger of others in the future." ”

"Yes, I have drawn up a draft for military training, which is to increase the training time to 18 months, and in the future, new recruits will only be sent to the army to participate in actual combat after receiving a year and a half of training. For example, I also plan to follow Xu Ping's method and increase the amount of meat used by the soldiers, and I plan to set their daily meat consumption at 15 to 20 taels. "One tael is about 30 grams, and Huangshi's quota for soldiers will probably be controlled at 500 grams to 600 grams:" Xu Ping only did this when he first joined the army to increase the amount of training and exercise, and I plan to give each soldier this ration as a rule, and I plan to let the soldiers raise pigs and sheep by themselves, which requires money. The peace talks with Lee Soon will increase my business tax revenues and reduce other expenses, so I really need to make this peace talks happen. But doesn't Li Shun need it? After I make peace talks with him, he will definitely not sneak attack and annex his troops, he can rest assured and boldly transfer his troops to the north, and he can not worry at all about me creating friction so that he will still be in a situation of fighting on two fronts, and through this battle, he will eliminate internal hidden dangers and greatly enhance his prestige, won't he benefit from the peace talks? It's still what I just said, a clear-eyed person naturally understands, and those who mess around, no matter how good you do, it's useless. Huang Shi smiled: "I must ask for this money, and I have a clear conscience when I take it." ”

Huang Naiming didn't say anything more, but expressed his intentions, he was originally worried that Huang Shi would oppose his risk to send an envoy to Shunting, but Huang Shi pondered for a moment and then nodded: "Yes, and you can stay in Beijing until the end of the armistice, so that Shunting will be more at ease with me, and transfer more troops back to the north earlier and more timely, so that the war in the north can be calmed down as soon as possible, and the people in the north can suffer less." ”

After finishing speaking, Huang Shi seemed to feel that he was a little heartless when he spoke to his son like this, so he comforted Huang Naiming and said: "Ming'er, you know that I don't plan to let Daming Zhongxing, I will not be there in the future, these people are your people, you should suffer a little, and you will not suffer." ”

"Yes, father, the child also wants to serve the country."

"It's best if you think like this, farmers want to plough the land, workers have to work, merchants have to operate, they all have to earn their own rations, only you don't need it, you are the one who gets the most benefits from this country, and you deserve to make the greatest contribution to this country." Huang Shi seemed very happy, and after teaching Huang Naiming a few words, he said: "Actually, not only am I willing to help Li Shun this time, but I also don't plan to force King Shun and General Xu to a dead end in the future. ”

"Is Father looking down on them for this?"

"There is also the suspension of the new prison by King Shun, the eunuch system is the most barbaric and brutal system I know, for thousands of years, shameless literati have gone forward to praise the benevolence of this emperor and the mercy of that emperor, but I have always thought that they are cold-blooded barbarians. King Shun abolished the eunuch system again......" Although he heard Huang Shi say the word "again", Huang Naiming thought that Li Zicheng had said something similar before, and he didn't expect that Huang Shi remembered what happened in another world: "Although I guess that the successor of King Shun - if Da Shun can not be destroyed, most of them will still restore the eunuch system instead of King Shun's unknown female official system, but since I am here, then this barbaric system will never be restored by another darker dynasty." ”

"In addition, General Xu did not give up Beijing but returned to the division, which surprised me a lot, I believe that this must be General Xu's re-influence, with my understanding of King Shun, he can't change his habits of wandering, lack of a kind of tenacity to resist, and this tenacity is indispensable for those who achieve great things......"

"Wait a minute, father," Huang Naiming found that Huang Shi was far away again, and hurriedly asked, "Father hasn't said why he looks down on them because they don't rob the rich and help the poor." ”

"That's the case, since ancient times, our emperor has always regarded the people as pigs and sheep to be slaughtered, and those who took advantage of the chaos to rise up are even more hard-hearted and have never treated their compatriots as people, but unfortunately, in history, only such people can seize the world, and kind-hearted people like King Shun are mostly given to the king's precursor. Since ancient times, only the most despicable and shameless villains have been able to defeat other heroes who are slightly inferior to him in terms of meanness, insidiousness, and incorruptibility, and take the chair to sit in the Jinluan Palace, which is called Taizu by later generations. "When Huang Shi and Huang Naiming, Huang Xiwen and these children speak in private, their remarks are always deviant and smack-like, and I am afraid that in this world, these children can do it without changing their faces and hearts when they hear Huang Shi's nonsense.

"As I said yesterday, since ancient times, the people's hearts have been determined by the law, and the fastest and best way to calm the people's hearts is to find an enemy. This method of creating enemies is also divided into superior and inferior, one is to find foreign races outside and accuse them of being our enemies of China; The other, which is even simpler, is to refer to a group of our compatriots as enemies of China. And this is also a good way to shirk responsibility, just like the gentleman of Donglin, who put all the responsibility on the first emperor, so that their guilt will be washed away. This is how the emperor can point to a group of people and say to the people, the reason why you are not living well is because they are guilty, and you can live a good life by slaughtering them all. Make these rich people enemies and kill them all, use their blood to comfort the dissatisfied people, use their wealth to survive the country's difficulties, if there is a problem in the future, find another group of people to come out as enemies, such as starving to death of many people or something, then there must be Xiaoxiao who is sabotaging, tell the people that you are suffering because of them, you just go and kill all these enemies. ”

Seeing that Huang Naiming could listen attentively, Huang Shi said in an accentuated tone: "Governing the country is a very hard thing, especially when you don't rely on the method of creating enemies to govern the country, you need to have a heart of love for the people, a heart of repentance for mistakes, and when you realize that your ability is insufficient, you have the consciousness to give up the rights in your hands for the country and the people, and let more virtuous people replace your consciousness." And making enemies is simple, as long as you have a cold heart and turn a blind eye to the blood and suffering of your compatriots. If the country wants to develop, it needs to make the hard-working people rich, and let the people who do not work hard pay, you can't be perfect, but every effort you make will make our country rewarded, so that our compatriots and people can live happier, this is of course a very difficult road; And the other is not, you can kill a group of scapegoats as soon as you encounter a problem, decades of life pass quickly and there are many Chinese, you can sit back and relax all your life, your son and grandson rely on this method to mix the same no problem at all, under normal circumstances, there are already new rich people at this time, but these people can no longer move, they are the descendants and officials of high-ranking officials and nobles, they will become more and more insatiable, encroach on the land on which farmers live, seize the money from the sale of melons and fruits by small people in the market, and gradually the rich will become strangerThere is no place for the poor, there are more and more people who have no way to live, the world is declining, bandits are swarming, until the day is noisy, killing people and taking money, and then there is a new chaos brewing. ”

"Father is talking about merchants and gentry, is he talking about land annexation?" Huang Naiming has heard many scholars say that the reason why Daming has problems is because of land annexation.

"Yes, it is too easy to kill a group of merchants and gentry and deprive them of their property, and it is so easy that you don't need to think about it, but shouldn't the industrious be richer than the others? Why is it that land is annexed uncontrollably, why can those big landlords not pay taxes, why can many people who do not work for themselves become rich, while those who work hard are poor? These are problems that require a lot of effort to solve, and are far less troublesome than pointing at the rich as enemies and then eliminating them. Huang Shi saw that Huang Naiming was still a little unclear, so he gave an example: "For example, if we divide a person into enemies and non-enemies, guilty and innocent according to the wealth they have, if this criterion is a pig, a person with a pig is a sinner and an enemy, and when his pig dies, he is innocent and non-enemy, so is it the pig or this person who is guilty?" Is China's enemy the pig or the owner of the pig? ”

Huang Naiming laughed.

"If a pig is too little, and there are so many pigs that one person can't raise them and needs to hire someone to help him raise them, then I think it's still the pigs who are guilty, and if the pigs are more obedient and the owner doesn't have to hire someone to help, then he is not a sinner and an enemy of China." The same is true of the question of land, and in short, the inevitable corollary of this theory is that land and livestock, and all other wealth, are enemies of China. ”

Father laughed. Huang Naiming couldn't stop laughing.

"The former way of governing the country is very hard, you need to be patient and endure loneliness, sometimes you may hate a person to the bone, but you still can't hurt him a cold hair, you may know that a person is wronged, but you can only let him down; The latter is very easy, since ancient times, literati have no bones, you can raise a group like raising and advocating excellence, or you can use book burning to deal with those who refuse to be bought, and as a result, most people will compromise. A few hard bones will give them a charge of insulting their old mother and fornicating with their father and concubine, and let them die for 10,000 years, and the literati you raise will praise your merits, even if your perverse actions have killed millions of people, the literati will defend you, which is the price that the country is rich and the people have to pay. ”

"Literati are really boneless," Huang Shi sighed again: "As long as you take those few hard bones, the most that remains, at most, is to dare to say a few strange words through the satire of the past and the present, and as long as you stare at them, they will be so frightened that they immediately take the book back to delete and change it, intending to pretend that they have never written it." ”

"But I still hope you don't take the latter path," Huang Shi finally said: "You must go flowers, then you should choose outsiders, and don't take your own compatriots as sacrifices." ”
