Chapter 213: History is the premise of the economy

Because Cui Mingyan doesn't know about these things, she usually just hears her uncle-in-law say that there are holes everywhere now, and everyone is very pessimistic in private, and it is precisely because of this Cui Mingyan that they break their heads and want to go out.

"Thank you, uncle, I just communicate a lot with foreigners, and there are a lot of foreign language materials from Polytechnic University! The earlier Western literature can still be referred to, but in recent years, the reference value is not much, and it is all value-oriented, which I don't like!"

In the face of Qi Yong's inquiry, Ji Donglai tried not to answer the supergang, after all, almost without exception, the Chinese people in this era are superstitious about the big brother of the United States.

also includes Qi Yong in front of him, who is in a high position, and it can be seen that the other party should also be a cadre who has returned from foreign training.

If something is advanced in mind, then any reason from the poor will be discarded as unreasonable, which is a common disease in the world.

"The young man is not small, you can't even look at Western classical economics, so how do you think you should look at the economy? The economy is inherently values, and only with reasonable values can you understand a lot of things, so you probably haven't read many economics treatises when you first entered college, right?"

Qi Yong kept looking at Ji Donglai, and now he feels that he can't understand Ji Donglai, at least the other party's current point of view Qi Yong is not very optimistic.

Every year, the bank hires a gold medal lecturer from a foreigner to come and give a lecture, many things are very practical and classic, Ji Donglai overturned it with a word, which made Qi Yong very unhappy.

Especially thinking about the huge holes he has handled, Qi Yong feels that Western economics is getting more and more correct.

"Uncle, don't worry! My personal point of view is that when looking at any economy, we must first look at history, and it is not scientific to look at the economy without looking at history!"

"Huh?"

This time, not only Qi Yong, but even Qi Yong's wife was stunned at this time, because the other party is also a history teacher, and the other party has taught modern history for so many years, and he has not found any connection between the two.

"Tell me about it, it's the first time I've heard your point of view, Yanzi, you're a very interesting kid!"

Qi Yong usually reads a lot of history books, and it's a good thing to argue with his wife when he's fine, and when he heard the other party talk about the connection between history and economy, Qi Yong became interested.

"Hehe, let's just say one thing! Is modern China being beaten because it is backward?"

Ji Donglai asked all three people at the scene in one sentence, including Qi Yong's wife, a modern history teacher. All the textbooks studied by the other side are based on this theory, and if they fall behind, they will be beaten.

This point of view has been used in China for more than 100 years, how can Ji Donglai say that it has changed?

"Yanzi, your little friend is a little interesting, what's it called?"

This time, Qi Yong's wife went into battle in person, Cui Mingyan pinched Ji Donglai hard, his eyes were full of disgust, and Ji Donglai grinned in pain.

"Ji Donglai, let you do it, my aunt is a teacher at the High School Affiliated to the National People's Congress, and she teaches modern history, your little point of view is not enough to refute here, so don't you apologize quickly?"

Looking at Ji Donglai's appearance, Cui Mingyan made a look.

"No need for Yanzi, come to the east! Historians and educators have been studying for almost 100 years, and if you are backward, you will be beaten.

Qi Yong's wife waved her hand at Cui Mingyan, Cui Mingyan patted Ji Donglai, and secretly said that you could do it, Ji Donglai was also secretly bitter in his heart, and secretly said that he was too talkative, but now he has to send it.

"Ahem, auntie, I really didn't know you were teaching history, that ......."

"Go on, you kid must have your own basis in mind! Yanzi said that you are in business, and people who do business are logical, and we also want to see the difference between us and these liberal arts students! It doesn't matter if you're wrong, after all, you're a junior!"

Ji Donglai wanted to prevaricate, but the kind of tightening of a teacher on the other side came up, Ji Donglai knew that he couldn't say it anymore, so he smacked his mouth.

"Yes, yes! Then aunt, let me ask you a question first, are we introducing or outside the construction of various disciplines in our modern times

Forcibly entered?"

Ji Dong took a sip of the water cup when he came here, and the other party was slightly stunned, because this matter was not in the history books, but the other party really knew.

From the Wuxu Reform to the later 1901, there are a lot of rights and wrongs in between, and it really broke up, and it seems to be really controversial, and the other party doesn't know where Ji Donglai's arguments are, so he also picked up the glass and took a sip.

"What do you think?"

As an adult, the other party will not be easy to target.

"Foreign imports, including backwardness, will be beaten, because since the Gengzi indemnity, almost all of this money has been used to build a new school! The core of the new school is that if you fall behind, you will be beaten! Therefore, these views are not studied by the elites of the Chinese people, but imported from outside, and they have been digested and absorbed by us after a hundred years of chewing, and we think they are reasonable! But what I'm trying to say is, it's the same as ***!"

After Ji Dong finished saying this, he stopped talking, leaving the other three people looking at each other over there, especially Cui Mingyan's aunt, some of the other party's ideas at this time were directly shaken.

Because it is reasonable for Ji Dong to connect these views with historical events, from the war to the war, the reparations of Gengzi, why do foreigners knock on the door of the country again and again?

Wait a minute!

"No, if you don't fall behind, you will be beaten, how can you explain the war?"

Cui Mingyan's aunt thought about it for a while, and immediately thought of a difference, Ji Donglai smiled again this time.

"Auntie, Humen sells cigarettes, and there are foreigners' warships parked in the port, and the location of the destruction of *** is in Humen! Why don't foreigners fight Humen or Guangzhou, but march into Tianjin?"

"If it was really backward at that time, wouldn't it be the same where to fight? Humen has destroyed this place, hit here, and subdue this place to be able to reflect his panic and national prestige, why not? Instead, go north to fight Tianjin Wei?"

Ji Donglai didn't want to have a meaningless debate with the other party, because for a hundred years, many things have been deeply rooted, and after countless people have added oil and vinegar, some points of view, although distorted, have been framed seamlessly.

It's easy to overturn the other side's theories, just don't go around the arguments and let them use those theories to explain contemporaries.

There is a Tao that if your theory is really useful, then use it to explain other things generally, and all of them can be explained, then you are the axiom.

"This ......"

This time, Cui Mingyan's aunt was directly speechless, because the other party hadn't thought about it when she was lecturing before, and strictly speaking, she hadn't thought about it deeply.
