"The essential reason why the Xia Shang were so brutal to slaves was that the production method at that time was still slash-and-burn, and large-scale slaves could be obtained by expanding from the Central Plains."

"When the level of productivity is limited and the food production is not enough to feed the entire population, the slaves at the lowest level naturally become cheaper."

"And since the end of the Shang Dynasty and the beginning of the Zhou Dynasty, as the "Book of Songs, Zhou Song, Zaiyun" said: Zai Yun Zai, its cultivation, thousands of couplings, and the clouds."

"The mode of production began to change to cooperative farming, so productivity also increased dramatically, and while food production could support a large number of people, cultivation also required a large number of slaves, and slave owners began to pay more attention to the lives of slaves."

"It's called – the productive forces determine the relations of production!"

Jiang Xinghuo asked the bearded man: "According to the concept I explained to you before, you translate and translate, what does it mean that productivity determines production relations?" How is it reflected at the turn of the business week? ”

Zhu Gaoxu recalled it and replied a little stumblingly.

"Productivity is the ability to grow food...... The ability to grow food determines the ...... of food production Who owns all the information, and what is the position of the people who produce and own it...... Also, it is who ultimately distributes the food. ”

The more Zhu Gaoxu spoke, the smoother he became, and even according to the context that Jiang Xinghuo had just said, he vaguely felt that he had deduced how this relationship was reflected at the turn of the Shang and Zhou dynasties.

Zhu Gaoxu blurted out: "Because in the era of the turn of the Shang and Zhou dynasties, cooperative farming replaced slash-and-burn farming, and the ability to grow grain was greatly improved, so although all the materials for producing grain were still in the hands of the original slave owners, the status of slaves in the process of producing grain was greatly improved!" And the grain was ultimately distributed to the slave owners! ”

"Bang!"

Zhu Di next door slapped the table hard.

This time it was not a shock, but a surprise.

Is this still his stupid son who only knows how to go into battle and cut people?

Compared with a month ago, under Jiang Xinghuo's teaching, it is like two people!

"Well, that's great! Hahahaha! ”

Zhu Di's joy can't be hidden, he originally preferred this cool Xiao's own second child.

It's just that Zhu Gaoxu used to be extremely resistant to studying, but now he has opened his mind here with Jiang Xinghuo, and he can go to the road of both civil and military affairs in the future.

And Zhu Di turned his head, but saw Dao Yan's solemn face, which was unusual for Dao Yan, who was always resourceful.

"Master?" Zhu Di asked tentatively.

Dao Yan did not answer, but motioned for Ji Gang and the two scribes to withdraw.

After the three of them left the secret room, Dao Yan organized his words before speaking slowly.

"Your Majesty, the old man suspects that Jiang Xinghuo is talking about ...... Dragon Slayer! ”

"What?"

Zhu Di was slightly stunned, then frowned and pondered for a moment.

"I've heard of dragon slayering." Zhu Di raised his head and asked, "Didn't the master assist me in ascending to the throne with the dragon slaying technique?" ”

"What the minister learned is still the set of dragon support techniques handed down from Liu Bingzhong, the great master of the Great Yuan Dynasty, and can only help people with dragon qi to ascend to the throne, and they do not have the ability to really change the world like dragon slaying."

Unconsciously, Dao Yan's self-proclaimed words became extremely solemn.

Zhu Di couldn't help but say, "What does the master think?" Is Jiang Xinghuo's "Theory of National Fortune" the legendary dragon slaying technique? ”

"The minister feels a little similar, but not like it." Daoyan's answer was very contradictory.

In fact, Dao Yan was not ignorant of dragon slaying techniques.

Although the dragon slaying technique has been lost, it is the same origin as the dragon slaying technique.

Legend has it that the science of dragon slaying can change dynasties and even establish a new system.

It's like the dragon slaying people who learned the Legalist technique to assist Qin Shi Huang to rule the world and set all kinds of new rules for the world.

It's just that the dragon slaying technique has been lost for too long now.

Dao Yan didn't believe that there were still people who would master this science.

"Your Majesty, and keep listening."

Zhu Di's face was solemn, and he continued to listen with Daoyan.

"Your answer is very correct, and now I will talk about another truth that is closely related to it."

"Let's continue along the timeline at the turn of the business week." Jiang Xinghuo said slowly, "Due to the progress of farming technology, the productive forces have been greatly developed, and the population has begun to grow explosively. ”

"At the same time, Zhou was a small state and Shang was a large state, and after the coalition destroyed Shang, Zhou was unable to rule all the regions, so he had to 'feudal state', and chose to enter a feudal dynasty from a slave dynasty."

"Since the feudal system has been adopted, it is necessary to resolve the disputes of the princes by clarifying the ranks, so that the noble and the low are equal, and the old and the young are different. So the Duke of Zhou formulated the "Zhou Rites" and implemented the patriarchal system, and China's history entered the Spring and Autumn Period. ”

"It's called – the economic base determines the superstructure."

"The productive forces determine the relations of production, the economic base determines the superstructure, whether it is history or future development, follow these two sentences, as long as you apply what you have learned, you can see through the fog, see through the truth, and even see through the future."

Zhu Gaoxu probably understood, but he still didn't believe it, or the ultimate secret was too easy to say, and he couldn't believe it.

Such an important secret is hidden in these two sentences...... Mr. Jiang, it's not that I want to find fault, I just want to ask, is this true? ”

At the same time, Zhu Di next door was also suspicious, and Dao Yan, who had always been calm, had no waves, but he lost his voice directly.

"No way, it's absolutely impossible!"

"There is no way that this knowledge still exists in this world!"

Zhu Di turned his head, also a little incredulous: "Is it so?" ”

"Dragon Slayer!"

"It's possible that it's a real dragon slayer!"

Dao Yan affirmed on the one hand, but then denied it, which seemed extremely contradictory.

"No, it can't be!"

Dao Yan's hands, hidden in the big sleeves of the black robe, began to tremble uncontrollably.

Seeing this, Zhu Di couldn't help but feel shocked.

"Master, what the hell is going on?"

Dao Yan Heavenly Man fought for a long time before he calmed down.

Dao Yan pinched the rosary and explained: "Your Majesty, according to legend, those who learn dragon slayers, once they learn it, they can use it to gain insight into the fortune of the dynasty, take advantage of the situation to create heroes, and slaughter the dragon of the dynasty." ”

"If you are using it, you can weigh the world, and you can create a new system."

"The productive forces determine the relations of production, and the economic base determines the superstructure, these two sentences have touched the core secret of the 'current situation', which is almost the same as what is said in the dragon technique."

Zhu Di took a light breath and asked, "So, the master thinks that Jiang Xinghuo is really talking about the legendary dragon slaying technique?" ”

"If Jiang Xinghuo can also tell the 'luck', I'm afraid it's true."

Dao Yan nodded slowly and said.
