Before returning to Liaodong.

Zhang Jingyi has always been thinking about what Liaodong is for the Zhang family.

Or rather, this world...... What will it be like in the end.

This is certainly not unfounded.

But at the point where he had to make a choice.

In fact, over the years, he has felt very deeply in the capital.

What I feel the most is the difficulty of walking.

Even if Zhang Jingyi has put forward a lot of tangible things, the complex relationship of interests and old-fashioned thinking still shackles his hands and feet.

Even with the support of the Emperor of the Apocalypse, every time he promotes a new policy, it is a matter of strength.

Thereupon...... Zhang Jingyi came to a conclusion that he couldn't laugh or cry.

It is not unreasonable for later generations to regard the Ming and Qing dynasties as the pinnacle of feudalism.

After countless dynastic changes, thousands of years of agricultural economy, the Central Plains Dynasty learned the lesson of severe punishment and strict law from the Qin Dynasty, the lesson of foreign relatives interfering in politics from the Han Dynasty, and the lesson of princes and kings and gate lords from the Wei and Jin dynasties.

Then to the Sui and Tang dynasties, they learned the lessons of the Jiedu envoys and the martial arts group.

After that, it was after the Song Dynasty learned the lesson that the New Year's coin was bound to raise tigers and so on.

A feudal social system centered around the land economy and based on grain came into being.

It can be said that ...... If there is a perfect system in the era of agricultural economy, then this system must be similar to the system of the Ming Dynasty.

So...... The most laughable thing is that Daming's problem is ...... It is precisely because its system is too perfect.

Through the policy of nurturing the clan, the harm to the clan and the princes and kings was minimized.

and then eliminated the gate valve through the imperial examination.

He also used the royal family to try his best to marry the common people and completely let his relatives withdraw from the stage of history.

The scholars who were born as landlords passed the imperial examinations and taught them the king's ministers and ministers, so that they would be ashamed of rebellion and glory with the title of the gold list, and after they had gained fame, they would borrow their families to maintain local rule, while the landlords and scholars who entered the dynasty formulated laws that would never deviate from the land economy, so that the beneficiary strata of the land economy could continue to benefit, so that they would never breed rebellion.

Then use these landlords and scholars who entered the dynasty to check and balance the military ministers, and control the military with literature.

At the level of the imperial court system, the cabinet adopts the court system, and ministers above the fifth rank can to a certain extent decide on the candidates for cabinet ministers and six books, so that those who can enter the cabinet and become ministers will at least not be discredited.

Then use the young landlords at the bottom to read, and the young officials who entered the court as officials for the imperial history, Hanlin, and various ministries, and use them to form a clear stream to check and balance and supervise the ministers in high positions.

Outside the imperial court, the brocade guards were placed to supervise the hundred officials.

On top of the brocade guard, the east factory is set up to balance the brocade guard.

At the local level, at first, the three divisions were used to check and balance each other, and then although a governor was added, the governor was similar to the official of the Qincha, and his power came from the imperial court.

To put it bluntly, this is an interlocking system, with the young supervising the old, with the literature and the military, and then with the eunuchs and brocade guards to control the hundred officials, in addition, there is also the Shilin Qingyi, with the scholars in the opposition, to control the ministers in the court who still want to leave a good reputation.

It can be said that ...... This is the ultimate power structure, if a piece of meat is the authority of the world, and the essence of this system is to cut it into meat sauce, and then everyone gets a little bit.

It is precisely for this reason that the perfect system of this ultimate agricultural society can allow the Ming Dynasty to continue to operate for two hundred and fifty years. No matter what happens, even if the emperor is captured, even if the emperor does not go to court for decades, even if there are many natural disasters and countless man-made disasters, it is still the reason why he can barely run when he is terminally ill.

And the only thing it defends ...... Although it can also be said to be imperial power, at the same time, it is also an agricultural landlord economy.

And the decline of the Ming Dynasty is ...... to some extent It is precisely for this reason that if it were not for the 'perfect' system of this agrarian society, if it was full of loopholes, it would be much less difficult to break the old and establish the new.

But in fact...... Zhang Jingyi found that because it is too perfect, no matter whether you are in a high position or in power, this perfect system will always have countless invisible hands that are balancing you.

What balances you is the ideas that are born out of this perfect system.

It's the people you can't see, they're hidden in every corner, they're not even right or wrong, you're embarrassed to classify them as badasses or villains, and they may even have extremely high moral standards.

This is also why, when Zhang Jingyi wants to do anything, there will always be countless reasons why he has his hands on him, and he can't let go of his hands and feet.

This is not to say that the two capitals and thirteen provinces in Guannai are no longer saved.

The people there are stubborn, but at least they are worldly, and they are not so frightened that they can fight against real things only by relying on the spiritual world.

It's just that...... They still need time.

This is also the reason why Zhang Jingyi stubbornly hopes to return to Liaodong.

This is because this is a happy land for exiles, and there are displaced people who cannot survive in Kannai and have lost faith in the perfect system of Kannai. There are also rogues who dare to raise their knives and meet each other with the landlord and scholars. There are also Jiannu people, many craftsmen who have migrated here for a better life, and many disciples who have come here with Zhang Jingyi, a teacher.

These people are complex, but they don't reject new things.

Of course, Zhang Jingyi knew that if he wanted to break the last line of defense of the main scholars in the Guanzhong, the only thing to do was to cultivate a new group of rentier classes.

It's not that Zhang Jingyi doesn't hope for the great harmony of the world, but because, at the moment, he really doesn't dare to follow Wang Mang's example and go too fast. Simply, it would be good for him to solve the affairs of the present generation, and if there is a problem in the future generations, there will naturally be children and grandchildren to solve it.

And the most urgent thing at the moment is to let everyone's interests be tied to the Zhang family.

Obviously, Huang Taiji has set an example.

They actively grabbed land, made money, and then sent the money to the Zhang family, who was responsible for their investment, and the investment in Liaodong not only got benefits, but also allowed Liaodong to achieve rapid development. In other words, the Eight Banners of Jiannu have been completely tied to Liaodong.

If it is said that in the future, who wants Liaodong to be stable, and who is more willing to consolidate and defend Liaodong, then Zhang Jingyi is extremely convinced that there must be those Jiannu people among them.

After chatting with Huang Taiji for more than an hour, Zhang Jingyi immediately began to draft the charter.

A new foundation, the Liaodong Development Fund, will absorb all the funds that are willing to invest here, and then invest in various fields through the Zhang family, giving birth to countless industries.

Therefore, when this fund was established, it was naturally lively, not only the Jiannu people invested money, but also many businessmen!

Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong rode horses with a group of brothers who came with them, wrapped in old jackets in the cold wind, and stopped from a distance to look at the huge door, as well as many people entering and leaving Daohe, and the sound of firecrackers resounded endlessly.

Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong did not step forward, but dismounted, put their hands in their sleeves at the end of the street, squatted down, and a group of people looked at the grand scene when many people in silk and silk came in and out with greedy eyes, and even Zhang Xianzhong shed a sigh of anger in his mouth.

"I don't know if I ......" Li Zicheng felt like a beggar at this time, and he couldn't help but say in a tone of envy: "This thing...... The Jiannu people invested more than 10 million taels of silver......"

The little minions in the back first widened their eyes in shock, and then drooped their heads one by one, and they began to use their barren imagination to imagine what the concept of 10 million taels was.

"Where did they get their money, it wasn't robbed." Zhang Xianzhong snorted and spat on the snow...... A small crater was smashed into the snow.

Li Zicheng said: "It's not robbery, they also have a certificate, they are acting on the king's orders, how can they be diligent in the king's orders?" ”

Li Zicheng continued seriously: "Brother Zhang, we have been obedient to the people, and we have made an edict, so don't use your mountain king's style in the future, we are law-abiding people." ”

Zhang Xianzhong: "......"

As he spoke, Li Zicheng's eyes showed obvious hope, and he continued: "In a few years, we will be like those slave builders, we have so many strong men, and we will rob ...... Can't kill those slave builders? I have found out the details of those Russians, and we can't wait any longer, so we must hurry back and gather the sons and daughters, and we must start before the Jiannu people. ”

Zhang Xianzhong's face was still gloomy, but now his face looked a little better, and he nodded emphatically: "That's the reason, tsk...... Thirty years of Hedong and thirty years of Hexi ......"

Li Zicheng stood up at this time and said, "Let's go." ”

Zhang Xianzhong said: "Don't you go to congratulate? ”

"I'm not going." Li Zicheng sighed, and then said: "We are like this, it is a shame to go, now go back immediately to gather people, as soon as the customized swords and firearms are delivered, we will set off immediately, this world is to support the bold, starve the cowardly." ”

Zhang Xianzhong bowed his head thoughtfully: "It makes sense, but it's a pity that several of my godsons are in military schools, otherwise, how good it would be to take them with you." ”

Sigh for a while.

Li Zicheng smiled: "They have their future." ”

Speaking of the future, Zhang Xianzhong subconsciously smiled, although in the original rogue, the acceptance of Yizi itself was a military consideration, because in the environment of daily killing, only the relationship between father and son is the most reliable.

But...... After so many years of fighting together, and being commensurate with father and son, it has long been beyond the consideration of interests in the real sense, and there are real emotions, and I sincerely hope that my sons will have a good future!

"It's also, let's ours, him!" Zhang Xianzhong couldn't help but curse in a low voice.
