Twenty-four years of Yuan Heng.

With Liu Renliang and others also dying of old age and illness, and Xue Rengui is also old, it seems that those families who have been handed down since the Wei and Jin dynasties have also begun to continue to control the court little by little.

You have to say that you don't need these people, it seems that there is no better person to use it, the imperial examination? The question is, can you pass the exam from a poor family?

Anyway......

When Li Chengqian came to chat with Li Chong on this day, Li Chong asked a little where the current prime minister came from, and then ......

I heard a lot of words from what place and what kind of clan.

As for what you have to ask, if you are from an ordinary person and climb up by yourself, even if you are not the prime minister, you can count it as if you are above the fifth grade.

That's all it can say......

It's very small, you can only pick one out of a hundred, and that's all good.

And this ordinary person is not an ordinary person in the general sense, at least, the family used to be beautiful.

When Li Chong heard this, he could only sigh slightly.

Li Chengqian said, "Teacher, why are you sighing? ”

Li Chong: "You say, is it better to use nobles to govern the country, or to use ordinary scholars to govern the country?" ”

Li Chengqian frowned: "Teacher, what do you mean by this ordinary scholar?" ”

Li Chong: "It's just ordinary people in the Tang Dynasty, through studying, and then becoming officials." ”

I saw Li Chong continue: "Before the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, or even now, those who govern the country are often generally those who are members of the big families. ”

"But with Emperor Wen of Sui Emperor Yang Jian, he proposed the imperial examination system, which provided a possibility for ordinary people to study and become officials."

"There are advantages and disadvantages for the nobles of the family to help govern the country, the advantage is that the organizational ability is not bad, and the combat effectiveness is also okay, after all, you look like Cao Cao, those Xiahou Dun, Xiahou Yuan, aren't they the children of their clan."

"So this Cao family, in the part of fighting, looks very combative, because there are many children in the clan. They can even use their house slaves to participate in the war. ”

"And if it were ordinary people, they might not be able to have such organizational skills. It is estimated that if he can mobilize the people of a village to rise up against the enemy's invasion, it can be regarded as a good official over the years. ”

"But what if you use a noble family? Nor can it be said that there are no shortcomings at all. ”

"It is precisely because they have such an ability to organize and mobilize, so, you see, Yang Jian will not usurp the throne, and then up, the king and the horse, share the world, the Langya Wang family in the Eastern Jin Dynasty and the royal family at that time were evenly matched."

"This is the disadvantage of using the nobles of the family!"

"You are still alive now, no matter how powerful the nobles of the family are, they are still not as big as you, so naturally you don't have to worry about this."

"But what about your descendants?"

"The elimination of the nobles of the family is an inevitable thing to do in the concentration of imperial power."

However, after the elimination of the nobles of the family, it is estimated that the future ministers will only be able to kneel in the court.

The Yuan Dynasty began to kneel, the Ming Dynasty was estimated to be the successor of the Yuan Dynasty, and the Qing Dynasty continued to deepen further.

The weak Song, who everyone looks down on, can still stand.

Li Chengqian said, "So what do you want to say, teacher?" ”

Li Chong: "No, just think about it casually." ”

Immediately afterwards, Li Chong said again: "But sometimes, it's too extreme, and it's often not good." ”

"It's best to be able to use the two in an organic way."

"But ......"

"This will inevitably give rise to partisan strife and camp antagonism."

"This human society is too complicated, and the more complicated it is, the more the country will almost die."

Li Chengqian is not very concerned about the matter of whether he will die or not.

Anyway......

Isn't there a teacher out there?

No matter what, the teacher will definitely take action.

I saw Li Chong say again: "The more prosperous the world, the more likely it is to have an invisible crisis, I think, Datang, is almost fast." ”

LI Chengqian; "So what is this crisis you are referring to, teacher?"

Li Chong: "I don't know. ”

Li Chengqian: "......"

Li Chong: "It can flourish and decline, this principle is absolutely correct." Now...... It has been almost sixty years since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, and it has been counted since your father and emperor, but the more this is the case, the more vigilant you must be. Especially don't be deceived by a prosperous place like Luoyang. Maybe out of Luoyang, it will be a different scene. ”

But for now......

Actually, it's okay.

After all, the development of this technology has given Datang infinite possibilities.

However, it is also necessary to be vigilant that the next thing will happen that laymen lead insiders.

Especially for the artisan class.

The greatest official of this academy should be selected from among the craftsmen.

It doesn't mean sending a civil official, or a eunuch to take care of it.

Of course!

Li Zhong just casually mentioned it.

In fact......

Who can solve all the problems of humanity alone. Really! Sometimes, he is suitable for lying down.

Li Chengqian's side.

After chatting with Li Chong for a day, he naturally gained a lot.

Today's Datang, it may be time to carry out some reforms in some policies.

For example, in the past, Datang did not allow people to leave their states and counties without permission.

Otherwise, it will be treated as a homeless person.

However......

Now that railways are so developed, there is no need for these.

In addition, if there are people who want to work in big cities, then should this labor relationship be established?

Although, Li Zhong felt that if he went to trouble the government, it seemed that he had added procedures.

But......

If it is not managed by the government, how can the interests of the workers be guaranteed?

Incidentally......

If it can really be standardized, and the number is large enough, in the future, this agricultural tax may not need to be collected, but will be replaced by a tax on workers.

There are also more workers, which does not mean that there is no one to farm.

After all......

And this is not with steam tractors.

In the future, it is estimated that this land will be directly contracted to powerful merchants to cultivate.

When the time comes, it is enough to collect the merchant's tax directly.

Li Zhong was in charge of editing, and Li Chengqian was in charge of listening.

However, Li Zhong definitely has a very conservative opinion on these various assumptions.

He's just saying it casually, not that it's going to be implemented right now.

Besides, even if you are a worker, it is estimated that there are not so many workstations.

Future......

In this material life, it must be more and more inclined to luxury, otherwise, it is estimated that it will be difficult to support so many workers.

If you say that it takes a year or two to weave a piece of clothing, and it takes hundreds of weavers to weave it, then the price of the dress must be very expensive.

However, it is expensive, but it will be able to feed more people in a longer period of time.

Luxury will definitely be a direction in the future.

Or rather......

Eating better and dressing better will definitely be a direction in the future.
