Hearing the question, Zhu Yuan closed the "Please Place the Book of Hebosi" in his hand, looked at Lao Zhu, and said with a smile: "Ancestor, from the perspective that Yuan'er told you before that he would let Zuo Xiang and the hundred officials continue to be busy after the founding of the country, so as not to quarrel with right and wrong, this is a good thing. ”

Lao Zhu raised his eyebrows slightly: "According to what you mean, if you don't follow this...... Angle, it's not a good thing? ”

"It's hard to say," Zhu Yuan shook his head slightly, thought for a moment, and continued: "Ancestor, I have always had my own clear ideas for the management of the ocean, in a short period of time, fishing seafood, to provide more resources for the development and expansion of the Ming Dynasty, in the long run, this is for future generations to open up an additional foundation in addition to the traditional land." In addition, there are some concrete means, I have brought together many coastal fishermen and displaced people, not only to give them a stable livelihood, but also to give them more production in the future, because this is the income of their labor. All this is still based on the way of 'production' and 'distribution' in the 'science of economics', so that production is more abundant and distribution is more even. ”

Lao Zhu nodded approvingly, hesitated slightly, and shook his head with a smile: "If he does it, he really won't have your thoughts." ”

Actually, it can be imagined.

In the absence of core theoretical support, Li Shanchang and others will only follow the traditional set, gather fishermen from all over the country, and turn from ordinary people who were originally free to tenants, even slaves, and then oppression.

In this way, the imperial court may gain a lot in the short term, but after a long time, the collapse will be small, and it is more likely to cause big chaos.

Moreover, in addition to personnel, as far as the development of fishery resources itself, Zhu Yuan does not think that Li Shanchang will follow the sustainable development system proposed by himself, and is more likely to fish without restraint.

If this happens, it will not be a good thing for the country or the people.

Thinking so, Zhu Yuan continued: "Ancestor, I have been thinking about it recently, we have to print out the journal of economics, and we need to be in Jinling University...... Well, all universities should have a school of economics, or make economics a compulsory course for students......"

"Don't ......" Before Zhu Yuan finished speaking, Lao Zhu had already interrupted: "...... This kind of learning...... ...... of such learning"

'Wait' twice, Lao Zhu was stuck again for a while.

Seem...... It seems like...... Truly...... However, Lao Zhu really didn't want to share such exquisite knowledge with others, and wanted to only pass it on to the descendants of the Zhu family.

Zhu Yuan saw that the 'bend' in Lao Zhu's mind turned half and stopped, so he helped and said: "Ancestor, think about it, if Confucius did not have 3,000 disciples, there would be no Confucianism, if there was no Confucian morality and etiquette, there would be no national cohesion in China that lasted for thousands of years. This is the importance of a cultural system to a nation. Yuan Er said to his ancestors last year that 'moral etiquette' is one leg, 'economic science', I hope it can become another leg, if you want it to become another leg, it must be widely disseminated and deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. ”

Zhu Yuan's words reminded Lao Zhu of the letter from Xu Da at the beginning, 'Confucianism is like a shadowless sword, protecting me for a thousand years in China'...... Come to think of it, it should indeed become another 'sword soldier' of the Ming Dynasty in the future.

After pondering for a moment, Lao Zhu finally nodded, and then said, "This ...... How to do it, we have to carefully consider it. ”

"This is certain, ancestor, the complete set of economic science in my heart is not suitable for all to show, and even, some sayings, even words can not be left, and can only be passed on to our Zhu descendants in the future. As for the ones that can be widely disseminated, they must all be part of a very positive way to benefit the country and the people. ”

Lao Zhu recalled the 'economics' he already knew, and couldn't help but be curious: "You...... Tell me about it...... Not suitable? ”

"For example, in the 'distribution' part, my ancestors, in my conception, 'distribution' is divided into two aspects, 'distribution of interests at the institutional level' and 'resource distribution at the regional level'. The way of man, the loss is insufficient and the dedication is more than enough', the latter is the "Lu's Spring and Autumn Period" in the 'flowing water is not rotten, the hub is not beetle', ancestors, about these, we should have known in our daily conversations, and have their own understanding, right? ”

Lao Zhu nodded.

Zhu Yuan said: "Then, for the 'way of heaven, there is more than enough to make up for the deficiency; If Yuan'er did not guess wrong, you must understand it as a whole, ancestor you are heaven, for the sake of the livelihood of all people, you must lose those who are "surplus", because "the way of man" is "insufficient loss and more than enough", you must do the opposite. ”

Lao Zhu nodded again, pondering, and said, "Is there anything wrong with this?" ”

"That's fine, and this is definitely the explanation given in the future public 'economic studies.'"

Lao Zhu saw Zhu Yuan's slow appearance, and was a little anxious: "You kid, don't make a fool of yourself, hurry up." ”

"Ancestor, but in fact, these are actually two things," Zhu Yuan smiled and sped up some of his words: "For the country, the ancestor is the 'sky', and you must 'lose more than you lose and make up for the deficiency', but, for foreign countries, your ancestors, you have to be a 'person', 'lose enough and give more than enough'." ”

Lao Zhu understood: "This ...... You're ...... Do you mean to say that I will be a robber to the foreigner, who has robbed things to feed my own people? ”

"Ancestor is wise," Zhu Yuan nodded vigorously: "Because, for a country, whether you steal or rob, your own or someone else's, in short, the more resources you have, the richer the people, the richer the people, the more stable the country, and further, the more stable the country, the more long-lasting the country." Ancestor, are you willing to be a robber to the outside world for the sake of our Ming Dynasty thousand-year-old country, or for the sake of the name of a humble gentleman, and die again for three hundred years? ”

"I ......" Lao Zhu was about to blurt out, but he stopped halfway through and glanced at his precious twenty-third grandson: "You...... This layer of meaning is indeed not suitable for paper. But if we do this, won't it cause the Gentiles to resist? ”

"In the short term, those who dare to resist will be eliminated. For a long time, the ancestors, Yuan'er will try to make a set of moisturizing and silent plunder models. ”

A silent predatory model?

Lao Zhu pondered it, this is a robber, he can still 'moisten things silently', and 'plunder models', although it is a new word, it is quite straightforward.

It is...... It's not a good thing to hear.

Seeing that Lao Zhu was still looking at himself while pondering, waiting to continue, Zhu Yuan raised his hand and pointed to the blue and white porcelain that people had brought in before: "Ancestor, there are many principles, but one of them can also start from these things." ”

Lao Zhu followed and looked over, suddenly laughed, and glared back at Zhu Yuan: "The clever tongue is like a yellow, but you are waiting for me here, and you are still ring by ring?" ”

"Ancestor, I was wronged," Zhu Yuan smiled and raised his hands: "It was originally an interlocking set of systems, and these blue and white flowers happened to be just related to it." ”

Lao Zhu was just joking, and quickly said, "You took it......"

Zhu Yuan pointed to the plum bottle of 'Xiao He Yue chasing Han Xin' among them: "Ancestor, guess first, how much silver can this bottle be worth in Yuan'er's era?" ”

Lao Zhu looked at the past, and said thoughtfully: "This is a good thing, if it is put for hundreds of years and becomes an antique, I am afraid that it will be worth tens of thousands of yuan?" ”

Zhu Yuan was just about to talk about the later relevance of this plum bottle, thinking about it or taking it back, so as not to interrupt his emotions, he just shook his head: "Less, too much." ”

"How many can there be?"

Zhu Yuan made a 'eight' gesture: "800 million." ”

The news that this plum bottle was auctioned was of course fake, but in order to impact Lao Zhu's heart, Zhu Yuan casually used it.

A white little lie.

However, Lao Zhu couldn't get Zhu Yuan's expression for a while: "What...... 800 million? ”

Seeing that Lao Zhu was puzzled, and remembered that he was not very sensitive to the later monetary units, Zhu Yuan thought for a while and said, "If the ancestor has just estimated 10,000 yuan, he can buy 10,000 stone of grain at the moment." In my time, grain was about one yuan a catty, 800 million yuan, which is 800 million catties of grain, equivalent to ...... Well, about 5 million stones. ”

Five hundred......

Ten thousand!

…… Stone?

Lao Zhu felt that he had heard it wrong for a moment, looked at the plum bottle, turned to Zhu Yuan again, turned around again, and turned back again, his eyes widened, with an expression of 'I read less, don't lie to me'.

Zhu Yuan said calmly: "The Yuan blue and white craftsmanship is special, and there are very few generations, plus the promotion of people with hearts...... Well, there is also this plum vase itself, compared with other blue and white flowers that are often just flower and bird patterns, it has the story of 'Xiao He Yuexia chasing Han Xin', which is more rare and precious, so the selling price is as high as 800 million yuan. ”

Saying this, Zhu Yuan pointed to the others: "These ...... Yuan'er didn't know, it should not have been passed on, but later, even some small pieces of Yuan blue and white that were far inferior to the plum bottle were often tens of millions of dollars. ”

Zhu Yuan said it rightly, and Lao Zhu finally felt that his precious twenty-third grandson was not like he was lying to himself, it seemed, as if he was ...... He had no reason to lie to himself.

What are the benefits of being scammed?

So he looked at the plum bottle again.

According to the statistics completed some time ago, this year, the total grain tax income of Daming is 15.43 million stones, which is a lot more than last year. But...... Right now, it's just a blue and white plum vase...... One-third of the grain tax revenue!

This is not a plum bottle, this is a mountain of gold!

Subconsciously wanted to get up, Lao Zhu reacted, stopped again, and sat down again.

Calm, calm.

When someone is gone, let's take a closer look at it in private.

Breathing out without a trace, Lao Zhu calmed down and looked at his precious twenty-third grandson: "This ...... What's the truth in this? ”

"There are many truths, but what Yuan'er wants to talk about is one of them, culture."

"Culture?"

"Yes," Zhu Yuan said: "Ancestor, the "Classic of Mountains and Seas" series of fountain pens of 'Zhiyongzhai', the one with a silver in 1888, do you remember?" ”

How could it not be remembered?

That money-grabbing thing!

Well......

Grab money?

Take another look at the plum vase.

Same...... It's the same thing.

Lao Zhu suddenly believed the statement of his precious twenty-third grandson.

The facts are right in front of you.

This 'Xiao He chasing Han Xin under the moon', compared with what 'Kuafu chasing the sun', 'Jingwei reclamation' and the like, is obviously a routine.

Seeing that Lao Zhu's expression was a little more abrupt, Zhu Yuan said: "The ancestors should have some understanding, that's right, this is the power of culture, or in other words, the added value of culture." Hard power such as economy and military is very important whether a country is strong or not, but equally important is soft power such as culture. For example, although the Song Dynasty was weak enough to be bullied by all the surrounding countries, the culture of the Song Dynasty, such as Song Ci, was admired and admired by all the surrounding countries, which was a manifestation of soft power. Although this strength is not of much use to a weak country like the Song Dynasty, cultural strength is crucial in the new era I envision. ”

Lao Zhu felt that he understood a little more, and said very realistically: "According to what you mean, that is, the "Classic of Mountains and Seas" ...... That culture, can it be sold for a lot of money? ”

"That's the straightforward truth," Zhu Yuan smiled and nodded: "Ancestor, go back to what we just said, the loss is not enough and the service is more than enough, to put it bluntly, it is plunder, being a robber." However, it is not decent to be a robber directly like that, and we Chinese are too face-hungry to do it, so change it and plunder in disguise. For example, this blue and white plum vase, from craftsmanship to culture, full of connotation, I have five thousand years of brilliance in China, so although the cost is only 800 yuan, 800 million yuan is sold to you, which is very reasonable, right? You bought my bottle, so that you can show that you are educated, you are a decent person, you can step into my circle, you can also pass this bottle to your children and grandchildren, it seems that your family is very high-grade, how good, and all this, not 1 billion, not 900 million, just 8 billion, 5 million stone grain. Ancestor, are you all moved when you hear it? ”

The more Zhu Yuan talked, the more excited he became, and the old Zhu Mo was holding a handful of rosewood paperweights on the book eucalyptus, not moved, but a little impulsive.

I want to hit someone.

This is the mind...... Why do you want to be crooked for a long time?

No wonder all dynasties have emphasized agriculture and suppressed business!

Don't learn well!

However, after the impulse, thinking about the twenty-third grandson of the baby who had crooked his parents' thoughts, he had indeed sold the "Classic of Mountains and Seas" series of fountain pens to 1888 taels, and after thinking about it, Lao Zhu had to approve. He also understands that the cost of 800 yuan is sold for 800 million yuan, which is just an extreme example of Zhu Yuan, but at most, a fountain pen with a cost of dozens of taels of silver can be sold for nearly 2,000 taels of silver, and this kind of profit of dozens or hundreds of times is really more cost-effective than directly being a robber.

】

After a little more relief, Lao Zhu finally said, "You ...... How? ”

"This is also the purpose of bringing these blue and white porcelain here today, ancestors, to sell at a high price, first of all, we must infinitely raise our own culture, the simplest one, we must cherish ourselves, all the things left by our ancestors are treasures for us, we must be serious and careful to worship, to what extent does this go, even if a Chinese character, is our rare future, if there are gentlemen who dare to disrespect Chinese culture, even if they fight a war, they must not hesitate."

Lao Zhu subconsciously waved his hand: "Raise troops at every turn, this is over." ”

"It's just an assumption, and if we can make a profit after actuarial calculation, it's not impossible to fight a war," Zhu Yuan continued: "Secondly, it is to belittle others. All cultures outside of China should be reduced to dross. Why can my Huaxia be inherited for thousands of years, and why can my Ming Dynasty be so powerful. Why? Because our Han people are superior, because we are superior in culture, because we are superior in military, in short, because everything is good. And you, why are you backward, why are you barbarians? Of course, because everything you have is bad, all dross, and you should all be swept into the dustbin of history. If you don't sweep, I'll do it for you. When you clean it up, you come and buy my culture at a high price, and a pen sells you for 1888 taels of silver, which is all affordable. A piece of clothing, a satchel, sold you 10,000 taels, do you want it? No, then you can only be a barbarian, and a barbarian should be swept into the dustbin of history. And my porcelain, tea, paper...... It's all good things, add some cultural connotations, and then sell them all to you at a tenfold and hundredfold price, which has the glorious five thousand years of my Chinese in it. What, you resolutely do not buy? It's a pity, you barbarian, please walk into the dustbin of history. If you don't want to, I have no choice but to drive my million-strong army over and give you a ride. ”

Lao Zhu: "......"

God, this kid is so crooked, can I change it?
