Chapter 151: Insights

After He Xi settled down at home. went directly to Guozijian.

Guozijian is He Xi's base camp in Nanjing.

It is also He Xi's most important position. Although, a lot of news can also be seen from the newspapers of all parties. But He Xi knows very well that there are some things that he will not see in the newspaper.

He Xi needs to know first-hand information from the forefront.

In Guozijian, Song Lin, Su Boheng, and others are all there, and Xie Jin is naturally there.

Although Xie Jin is young at this moment, he is not tall. But between the expectations, there is a sense of radiance. It can be seen that in the past half a year, Xie Jin, who presided over the journal, has been regarded as the number one person in the Daming Shilin.

At least Xie Jin had no place in front of He Xi before.

And this time, explaining the overall situation of the Jingshi, Song Lin and Su Boheng also deduced why Jin explained it.

"That's pretty much it." Xie Jin said.

The whole thing, of course, began with the dispute over the opening of the sea. From the very beginning, both sides lift the lids on each other. Ding Xian said that there are drawbacks to opening the sea. Xie Jin said that usury is vicious. Ding Xian said: Opening the sea leads the people to seek profits. Bad for the customs of the world. Xie Jin said that lynching is carried out on a large scale in various places, and the country is not in mind.

In short, hit the opponent's soft underbelly.

But for a long time. The controversy between Ding Xian and Xie Jin. I won't go down this path.

For no other reason, the two of them may be fine. But the accidental injury was too great.

Zhu Yuanzhang did not tolerate sand in his eyes. Zhu Yuanzhang will verify the information that broke out on both sides of them one by one, as long as it is true. Kill the killer and show no mercy. Do so on both sides. Injured a lot of people by mistake. After all, Zhu Yuanzhang's brocade guard is powerful. But the Jinyi guards are only tens of thousands of people.

It is necessary to monitor the military administration, the ministers, and the localities. Spy on the vassal king, and so on. This is scattered, and they may not know much about many things in the people.

This is a very realistic situation.

It's the same with any intelligence department. The more you want to know, the more money you will have. And Zhu Yuanzhang certainly has money in his hands, but he will not invest most of the money in Jinyiwei. Therefore, any divine intelligence agency that was rumored in ancient times was blown most of the time.

Even during World War II, weren't there still some intelligence operatives who made a living by compiling intelligence?

Zhu Yuanzhang's ears and eyes are not omniscient.

Now, the people below have turned it out, and Zhu Yuanzhang naturally wants to deal with it.

Xie Jin and Ding Xian have nothing to do. On Xie Jin's side, some nobles involved in overseas were caught a lot of pain. This is also because most of He Xi's faction are from Guozijian. There are not many people in the Beijing Division. And I have to admit that some people with a high level of education also have a better bottom line.

Then there is the He Xi faction, except for He Xi, there are few people in high positions. There are also fewer black spots. So the firepower is all on Xungui.

As a result, the two sides reached a new tacit understanding.

But this tacit understanding does not mean that the dispute between the two sides is over.

Xie Jin is capable, he pulled Yongjia's learning over, and He Xi's immigration policy as an endorsement.

The reason why it is said that Xie Jin is capable. It was because Xie Jin found that He Xi's doctrine did not contradict Yongjia's learning. There is even a lot of overlap. He Xi theory is a scientific methodology. Logic, in order to avoid direct conflict with science, does not talk deeply about some philosophical aspects.

But Yongjia's learning, in many ways, fits perfectly with He Xi's doctrine. For example, the integration of righteousness and benefit, such as trade and benefiting the country. The most important point is to do things. This point of view is incompatible with the science of science, which talks about the nature of the mind.

And if you study it deeply, what He Xi said is closer to a way of doing things. And Yongjia's learning, holding high the banner of meritorious service, the two sides simply hit it off and connected seamlessly.

Although it is said that Yongjia's learning, in the Southern Song Dynasty, was endorsed by Ye Shi and other scholars, and it was widely circulated, no less than science. But after entering the yuan, it disappeared. Very little has been handed down. Among the contemporary Confucians, I have not heard of anyone inheriting the Yongjia faction.

But if there is no heir, it does not mean that it is lost. Blowing soil from the pile of old papers, you can still find the doctrine of the Yongjia faction.

More importantly, as a member of Confucianism, the Yongjia faction has many theories and propositions on many basic Confucian issues, and these things make up for many gaps in He Xi's theory. With the bonus of Yongjia's learning. He Xi's knowledge is more systematic.

The achievement of a doctrine is not something that can be accomplished by one person. Xie Jin's theory of He Xi has widened the border, and it has also put forward theoretical support for the matter of opening the sea.

And Ding Xian didn't give it for nothing.

After all, science is an explicit science.

Ding Xian didn't have to do a lot of theoretical innovation, it was enough to support his theory.

What settles the people, there is constant production, there is perseverance. And operating at sea, there is no fixed residence. If you are rich, you will mess with the laws of the court, and if you are poor, you will have a vicious heart. There is also support, the Ming law itself does not actually support the migration of the people. In the imperial court law, it is forbidden for the people to leave the county without a guide.

Only those who read books have the privilege of traveling.

Of course, this is not too strict. After all, in this day and age, there are naturally limited roads that can pass cars and horses. But there is no limit to the number of paths that can be walked away. And the people sneaked away, and there were no chariots and horses to use.

The imperial court also did not have so many people to manage so many people. It is nothing more than leaving the local area, and becoming a black household of displaced people, as long as you do not enter the city from now on, do not take the main road. Generally speaking, there is no problem.

The two sides are at loggerheads. On the whole, Xie Jin is not lagging behind.

Of course, this is all superficial.

Behind this is naturally a confrontation between two factions.

There is no need for Xie Jin to tell him.

He Xi also has his own channels, and the main force supporting Xie Jin is no one else. It's Lu Zhongheng.

Others dare not come forward. But almost all of Lu Zhongheng's net worth is pressed overseas. Now he is an emperor overseas. Deserve it. Everything the Lu family has invested overseas. Once there was a change in Daming's maritime policy, Lu Zhongheng had nothing.

How could he allow it, and it was also in Nanjing that Lu Zhongheng did not dare to mess around. Otherwise, Ding Xian's neck is headed. It's long gone.

Of course, the Jiangnan gentry are not vegetarians.

In the end, they suffered from this period of controversy.

Why?

None of them. That is the thing of making money at sea, which has always been popular on a small scale. With the speed at which news spreads in this era, a matter can spread all over the world in a few years, which is already very fast. But the newspaper changed all that.

Before that, the matter of opening the sea was rarely talked about in the newspapers.

In He Xi's view, it is enough to engage in less sensitive things and make some things an established fact. The rest will not be too late in the future.

But now, maritime trade is becoming more and more developed and influential. For the gentry, the loss was also painful. For example, many tenants have gone to the sea to earn a living. For another example, because of the rise of maritime trade, many people's businesses have also been affected.

The rise of maritime trade is not good for everyone.

There is not a single thing in the world that is good for all groups. Not to mention anything else, the sea trade has made Songjiang Mansion develop rapidly, and it has a bit of bearing in the future of Shanghai. And Suzhou Liujiagang is naturally very prosperous, but as far as Suzhou City is concerned, it may not be a good thing.

There are many nouveau riche merchants along the coast, and there is a possibility of challenging the scholars in the rural order. This is even more unacceptable to them.

Ding Xian brought out this matter. It also meets their demands. That's why they support it, and there are a lot of people behind it. The Zheng family is gone, and Liu Sanwu is gone. The interests of business, the status of academia, and political disagreements are all embroiled in this controversy.

But there was something that the scholars never expected.

That's the big controversy. Only then can the whole world be convinced of one thing, this sea trade is very profitable. Don't underestimate this. In this way, in some places in the interior, when people are desperate, they also begin to think about trying to run to the sea.

This also creates another situation.

With the support of He Xi, Daming's maritime trade was mainly based on ocean trade. After all, ocean trade makes money. However, the cost of ocean trade is also large, that is, the nobles can participate. Now, the Age of Exploration seems to have begun.

Of course, this national population refers more to small businessmen.
