"There is nothing wrong with the problem, but there are some aspects that need to be further improved, and the situation in the south and the north is different, and there will be different differences in different regions."

"Further improvement is to make the paving into the mu better implemented, so that it can be implemented in the north and south more smoothly!"

Di Renjie shook his head, the problem is not in the policy of apportioning the land to the mu, but in the regional differences between the north and the south, and some measures are not suitable for the south.

"If that's the case, then postpone it for half a year, and have half a year as a buffer period, and I believe that we will be able to solve the shortcomings."

This small problem is not a problem, it doesn't matter if it is postponed for half a year, the most important thing is to be able to implement the apportionment into the mu.

Truly let the people at the bottom of the Tang Dynasty be able to profit, this is the most important thing.

"Thank you, saint!"

Di Renjie crossed his hands and bowed!

"It's boring here, Di Aiqing, go out for a walk with me, and I'll talk to you about something else by the way!"

After staying in the palace for a long time, Li Jing felt a little bored, and invited Di Renjie to go out for a walk together, take a break, and talk about business taxes by the way.

The emperor invited, as a courtier, he naturally would not refuse, and the two left the palace, and Li Jing mentioned to Di Renjie about improving the status of the businessman.

As a person with old ideas and old concepts, Di Renjie has a lot of complaints about Li Jing's reform of commerce and elevating the status of a businessman.

He, like all the old thinkers, opposed Li Jing's promotion of the status of a businessman, and they felt that doing so would be detrimental to social stability.

To put it bluntly, valuing agriculture and suppressing business is conducive to maintaining the rule of the landlord clique.

In fact, agriculture has low risk resistance, but once there are natural and man-made disasters, resulting in no harvest on the land, and when farmers cannot afford to eat, it is easy to go into exile and migrate, and in serious cases, it will also provoke civil uprisings.

Coupled with the influence of Confucianism, the ruling class has stifled the ideology of the lower levels, and the concept of valuing agriculture and suppressing business has been deeply imprinted in the hearts of the people.

In the eyes of most people, a merchant is a treacherous person, and a merchant who is mercenary and tends to be inflammatory, will naturally be spurned by Confucianism, who is full of poetry and books.

Foreign Duan famously said: "With a proper profit, capital will be very bold." ”

"As long as there is 10% profit, it will be used everywhere, and with 20%, it will be lively; There are 50% of them, which will cause positive risk-taking. ”

"100 per cent, it will make people defy all laws; 300% will make people not afraid of sin, or even the danger of hanging. ”

Although this passage blatantly reveals the greed of capitalism, and the blood and squalor of the process of capital accumulation, it is also applicable to businessmen.

Walking to a gazebo, Li Jing and Di Renjie sat opposite each other, Di Renjie said:

"Is the sage planning to change the national policy of the Tang Dynasty? Since ancient times, emphasizing agriculture and suppressing commerce has been the foundation of the country and the long-term stability of the Tang Dynasty. ”

How could Li Jing not understand what Di Renjie meant, he was telling Li Jing that if he did something that put the cart before the horse, it would cause trouble for the Tang Dynasty!

Since ancient times, it has been based on agriculture and improving the status of businessmen, which is to put the cart before the horse, which is shaking the foundation of the Tang Dynasty, and the world will be in chaos if it goes on like this!

But Di Renjie didn't know that if Datang wants to be truly rich and strong, it will not work to rely on agricultural development alone, and only the all-round development of Datang can truly achieve prosperity.

The role of merchants is still very large, of course, the treatment of merchants should not be left alone, not only to make them more enthusiastic about making money, but also to use the law to restrain them.

Otherwise, they will definitely be lawless and even do things that harm the national interests of the imperial court!

For example, the Jin merchants in the late Ming Dynasty, when the country was in crisis, sold important materials to the Manchurians, the enemies of the Ming Dynasty, and sometimes acted as spies to sell the country's intelligence.

Such mercenary businessmen are very hateful, so we should treat businessmen with turnips and sticks, and strengthen their patriotic feelings.

"I really want to change the status of businessmen, so that there will be a better development for the Tang Dynasty, and Shinong Industry and Commerce have been proposed for thousands of years, which is no longer suitable for contemporary times!"

Li Jing nodded, without the slightest concealment, he just wanted to change the status of businessmen and break the people's fixed way of thinking.

"The sage said this, the minister does not dare to agree, the businessman is mercenary, good at tending to the flame, and there is no morality at all, as long as there are enough benefits, there is nothing they dare not sell."

Di Renjie retorted. Li Jing sighed lightly, he knew that it was not easy to convince Di Renjie, who was solidified in his thoughts, and even the people of the whole world!

"What Aiqing said, I understand in my heart, but if Datang wants to be truly rich and strong, it must not only focus on agriculture, and industry and commerce must not lag behind, so as to bring more wealth to Datang."

Did the saint ever consider what would happen if this case was opened? If everyone were to be in business, and who would cultivate it, wouldn't the land be barren? ”

"If the country does not have enough food, won't the world be in chaos? Could it be that the sage wants the Tang Dynasty to fall into exile? ”

"How can a saint behave like this worthy of the emperors? The minister bowed his head and begged the saint to think twice, and not to destroy the foundation of the ancestors on impulse!"

Di Renjie said and left his seat and bowed to Li Jing, Li Jing wanted to develop the economy and business, and he did not object to Li Jing doing so.

But if he wants to put the cart before the horse and destroy the foundation of the Tang Dynasty, he must not agree, let alone improve the status of businessmen!

If the status of those businessmen is improved, won't they be even more lawless, and I am afraid that their nostrils will be curled to the world.

Li Jing is very helpless to Di Renjie, but if he doesn't improve his status as a businessman, how can he let more people actively engage in business and bring more business taxes to Datang!

In later generations, the market economy was practiced, and the business competition was so fierce that not everyone did business, but people from all walks of life did it.

Doing business also requires brains, not to say that you have a few pennies and know how to buy and sell goods.

Before starting a business, you first need capital, know how to sell, etc., which is not something that can be done by just one person.

"Improving the status of merchants can mobilize the enthusiasm of merchants, increase taxes for the imperial court, and improve the finances of the imperial court."

"The future Datang will need a lot of money and a hundred flowers to bloom in order to achieve a truly prosperous world."

The truly prosperous and wealthy Tang Empire in Li Jing's heart must be a brilliant and ambitious plan, how can it be limited by money.

If he really had to be sorry for his ancestors, then he could only make a decision against his ancestors, improve the status of the merchants, and make the merchants more active in business.

Merchants in business, in addition to guarding against them betraying the interests of Datang, can also use businessmen to understand the situation outside Datang and prepare for the future Datang conquest of the world.

Some people died, but not completely......
