Chapter 27 On Agriculture

At present, peasants are the identity of the lowest level of society, but before the founding of New China, the peasants who could become landowners were all landlords and gentry, and those at the lowest level could only become tenants.

Farmers are a great profession, but it is also a despised industry, because of the labor facing the loess with their backs to the sky, because of hard work, so even if all people's food comes from farmland, from farmers, but there are still countless people who are unwilling to be farmers, in addition to hard work and social hierarchy, even if some people are out of the land, but they will still feel inferior to themselves as the descendants of farmers, these are the bad mentality that exists in today's society, seemingly trivial, but in fact, it is a hidden danger of infinite harm!

In the past 5,000 years, due to the scarcity of land and the large population, although the civilization is brilliant, the era of not bothering about food is only one or two generations, and it is only one or two generations that this time has caused food waste, vanity and flashy thoughts and ideas that are detached from the land, these are the terrible impact of shaking the foundation!

The peasants are the grassroots, and the grassroots are the foundation of a society, and without the grassroots, or if the grassroots are shaken, the whole country will collapse, and the consequences will be very serious.

It is precisely because of the existence of peasants and the existence of people who guard the land that the country will continue to be protected. Soldiers protect the grassroots, the officials manage the grassroots, and businessmen lead the grassroots to develop and prosper, these are their respective responsibilities!

The world can basically be divided into two categories of land life, one is nomadic people, the other is an agricultural people, nomads wander around, so the concept of the country is very weak, which leads them to plunder when they are strong, flee when they are weak, and will not deliberately guard certain places, so that the nomadic country is often turbulent, and the nation is often changed!

And the human beings of the agricultural country depend on the land to survive, no matter whether the land is barren or the land is fertile, they will not leave the land, they will multiply on this land, inherit continuously, and build ancestral halls, ancestral temples, to establish their roots, even if they leave for hundreds of years, after more than ten generations, but through the word of mouth of the older generation, they still remember where their roots are, and they will still look for the land where their ancestors lived and thrived, so even if some of them became merchants, Some people have become scholars, some people have become soldiers, they will continue to miss their hometown, for the military with this mind will swear to defend the national land, for the people will not dare to do whatever they want because of the fetters of their hometown, for businessmen, will not go away because of the inheritance of the ancestral ancestral hall, even if they are rich, they will benefit one party, and they will not do anything wrong!

Therefore, farmers are the foundation of China, and they must not be discarded or belittled at will.

And the peasants will not move at will when they live in one place, and the family will have old people and children who live here for generations, and even if they have evil thoughts in their hearts, they will have many scruples, and they will not dare to do anything wrong, so that they will not dare to use wit and cunning, and they may not be able to face the accusations of neighbors, relatives and friends, so the peasants are more simple, social stability, and peace.

Wicked people are not born, good people are not born, good and evil are born from selfishness, but this situation can make people dare not harm others and benefit themselves, so that good people can spread widely.

But once you get rid of the fetters of the land, you will act recklessly for the businessmen, go away and fly high, be extravagant and greedy for the officials, be lazy and lazy, be a soldier, and have no home in your heart, you will not be careful to defend it, and you will be a traitor!

The wanderers have no invisible oppression, and because they are all strangers, they will be abducted and deceived for their own selfishness, and no one will know each other afterwards, so they will have no shame and will never tire of harming others!

Women are born weak, social pressure increases, and they do not have the tenacity of men, and even men are mostly unable to maintain the bottom line, let alone women? Therefore, after getting rid of the land, relatives and friends, neighbors, and fathers and villagers, they will stumble to seek some fireworks places, which are comfortable and do not need to pay much physical labor, so as to become morally corrupt, and gradually become a plaything swayed by the materialistic society, and become a dusty woman, so that morality is corrupt, etiquette collapses, and everyone will become rude and reckless, morally corrupt, and eventually harm others and themselves, causing tragedy!

Therefore, although the peasants are bitter and their status is not high, they are the most important part of the overall situation.

Because the peasants are simple and simple, less witty and cunning, every farmer who guards the farmland knows that food is not easy to come by, and knows that he has been favored by his predecessors since birth, and that he has accepted the gifts of others for food, clothing, housing and transportation.

And because the peasants have lived for a long time, there is a saying that distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors, the people help each other, social security is stable, the bottom line of moral integrity is slightly stronger, and there are no people who are full of food and clothing.

The grassroots are rich and stable, the country will be prosperous and prosperous, even if the grassroots people have too much peasant property, it is just an increase in land and an increase in houses, so that there are many family properties, and many family properties are fixed assets that cannot be moved, rather than businessmen like transferring wealth and flying away, the harm is endless, and the property is not willing to leave, it will die of old age and the hometown will be guarded from generation to generation, and the foundation will last forever, even if the regime changes, the nation will not die, and the glory will be recast in the ruin!

All political power, all commerce, or the so-called upper classes of occupations or people are all built up by the grassroots, and if the peasants or the common people at the grassroots choose to abandon him, then they will surely be destroyed, and there will be no luck!

Therefore, the ancient sages said that those who win the hearts of the people will win the world, those who have attained the Tao will have more help, and those who have lost the Tao will have little help.

The stone of the grassroots is like the source, the source is not extinguished, the sweetness is not stopped, the source is turbid and turbid, the upper layer is unstable and perishing!
