Chapter 368, the unruly New Worlder
Zhu Lao Liu has a good mother, and his future in Japan depends on his mother.
But Zhu Lao Fourteen can't do it.
His biological mother, Concubine Li, was weak, and it was impossible for her to fight the two classes in North Korea.
So it can't be helped.
Emperor Zhu had to pay attention to everything for the sake of his son's future Korean world.
The future of the Ming Dynasty is a Celestial Empire system with the Ming Dynasty as the core, and in this system, the life of the first filial son of the Ming Dynasty in North Korea must be good - because this is a model created by the Ming Dynasty.
If you want people to follow suit, how can you just rely on brainwashing and fooling.
To rule over others, the first is by violence, and the second is by profit.
Violence does not last long, and peace and stability can only be achieved if it can be supported, or in other words, by a firm interest group.
So now Emperor Zhu also wants to establish a Zhu Korean interest group for himself and his son.
The key lies in the peasants, and the peasants cannot but be resolved in order for the DPRK to maintain peace and stability for a long time, and the peasant issue has two cores, the first is the contradiction over land, and the second is the contradiction between the peasants and the landlords.
"The so-called land contradiction is that the peasants have no land, and the two classes of landlords own almost all of the land."
"The contradiction between the so-called peasants and the two classes of landlords lies in the rule of the two classes over the countryside and the cruel exploitation of the peasant people brought about by this rule, under which the Korean peasants have been in hopeless and extreme poverty for a long time, and this is the root cause of the rebellion of the Donghak Party in Korea!"
It is not the god of Ma or the god of grace in later generations, let alone the report of the peasant movement.
It's Emperor Zhu.
Yes.
His Majesty the Emperor, a great empire, is now talking a lot about the class contradictions in the countryside.
If people in later generations see it, they will inevitably feel quite disobedient.
Just listen to that.
It's a bit like a meeting presided over by Mr. Kim, the great mentor of North Korea in later generations.
But look at this delegate.
All of them wore black gauze hats on their heads and red robes.
All of them were feudal lords.
As for the one who spoke on the stage, it was a lot more normal, it was Zhu Daohua, the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, who was wearing the regular uniform of a Ming army officer.
This is in the large conference room of the Changchun Hall in the central capital, a total of more than 200 civil and military officials are separated from each other, and Emperor Zhu's angry voice echoes in the hall, everyone can hear clearly, everyone has paper and pen in front of them, and they are all working hard to record.
This was Zhu's first rural work conference in North Korea.
Most of the officials attending the meeting were frustrated literati from two shifts.
Most of these people were scattered throughout the Ming Dynasty or selected by refugees who had fled from areas occupied by the Dongxue Party.
All of them have a certain level of education, can write and calculate, and can use fluent Chinese characters.
They will now be the fourteenth prince of the Ming Dynasty, the initial team of the future king of Joseon, and they will be assigned to various parts of Korea as officials, which is also the basic plate of the future Zhu dynasty.
Zhu Daohua has been an emperor for so long.
The level of power has been honed.
Of course he does.
Own son in North Korea can not have only one group of users.
Those officials from two classes of wealthy families are not very reliable, so it is necessary to support an official from a poor family outside of them.
It's called balancing.
Other than that.
Emperor Zhu is still very clear.
Any reform is easy to take advantage of others, but difficult to make a knife for yourself.
The reform of the Ming Dynasty stumbled and bumped, taking two steps forward, one step back, and moving forward one small step at a time.
Not to mention the equal division of land, even if it was a imperial examination, Emperor Zhu divided it into several steps to complete, and he would rather start a war to grab land than engage in any land reform in the country.
However, in North Korea, the reforms have been much more drastic.
Anyway, the landlord class in North Korea has little strength, Emperor Zhu can knead it casually, and Emperor Zhu has no pressure at all to divide their land.
Don't say it's Emperor Zhu.
Even the princes in the Ming Dynasty, these representatives of the Ming scholar and doctor class, did not take North Korea too seriously.
After Peng Jun and others confirmed that Emperor Zhu would not carry out any land reform to divide the land equally, they wisely stopped asking about North Korea.
Instead, he is busy with government affairs, especially to prepare for next year's "Great Enke".
After all, there are too many things in the Ming Empire, and Peng Jun, who is the prime minister and the leader of the Xianghu faction, the main force of the Ming Dynasty, has too many things.
And the future North Korean officials at all levels who are now being selected do not oppose the equal division of land, but not their land anyway - these people are all literati who have lost their land, so there is no resistance to equal land division.
"The Great Emperor is going to completely reform Korea and cut off all the ills."
Park Sun-il said with emotion.
He was also born in two classes, but he fell into the middle of the family very early, and went to Nanyang with his family at the age of thirteen to make a living.
It has been more than ten years since he left North Korea.
In fact, Park Sun-il can't even speak Korean well.
He even participated in the imperial examination of the Ming Dynasty, but unfortunately failed to pass the examination.
After seeing that the Ming Dynasty was going to recruit Koreans to become officials in North Korea, he did not hesitate to sign up.
Although the imperial examination of the Ming Dynasty could not pass, the imperial examination of North Korea was still easy - after all, there were few Koreans in the Ming Dynasty, and the pressure of competition was not great.
"Yes, the Son of Great Tomorrow is really the father of North Korea!"
Sitting next to Park Sun-il is a North Korean named Zhang Daxuan, who turned out to be from Class 7 Untouchables, because he went to work as a scholar for the young master of a rich and noble family when he was a child, so he knew some words, and now he can actually be an official - in the previous North Korea, it was impossible for him to be an official from such a background, so Zhang Daxuan didn't want to kneel down and call Emperor Daming's father, and he was willing to call his ancestor.
"That's right, the ills of the past 400 years, 20 million Korean Li people, 3,000 miles of splendid mountains and rivers, finally have a day of peace!"
Park Sun-il said.
When he was in Nanyang, he saw the collective farms of the Ming Dynasty, so he learned that the peasants had another way of life - they did not rely on the gentry and were not afraid of the government, and they also owned their own land (in fact, their own), whether they worked together or divided the land and worked alone (the operation mode of the collective farms was not fixed, although in general, sales and purchases were carried out collectively), which could make the farmers prosperous.
Even if you have to participate in battles often, even if someone dies. γ
But no one thinks it's worth it.
Because all are fighting for their own interests.
The peasants of the collective farms were not afraid of the gentry or the government, they had no worries about food and clothing, and they could even run private schools to educate their children.
Since, a collective farm without gentry landlords ran better than a village ruled by the gentry.
So what was the need for the landlord gentry to exist?
And what role does the existence of these gentry have for the state?
As far as the two classes of wealthy households in North Korea are concerned.
They will only lie on the bodies of North Korean peasants and suck blood.
Literature cannot be peaceful, and military cannot defend the country.
It's just a bunch of rubbish.
At this time, Emperor Zhu, who was sitting on the rostrum, continued to start his "Zhu's Rural Theory".
"The current hierarchy and land system in the DPRK is the biggest obstacle to the development of the DPRK, and the wealth of the DPRK cannot be used for the people, but is taken away by the two classes of wealthy families who occupy a minority of the population, and the wealth of a country cannot support the army or the people, but only supports a parasitic class that does not produce and cannot create wealth, which is a huge burden on the entire Korean society. Therefore, this parasitic class must be cut off, the privileges of the two classes must be abolished, all classes must be equal, the imperial examination must be expanded to the whole people, and any Korean citizen has the right to participate in the imperial examination in Korea! In addition, there is also an age limit for the selection of scholars in the imperial examination, until the age of 30, after the age of 30, do not go to the imperial examination, do something else, farm the land, do business, in short, it is better than sitting at home and reading dead books. β
Emperor Zhu moved the imperial examination reform of the Ming Dynasty to North Korea.
The DPRK takes China as its teacher in everything.
So the country's problems are actually similar to China's, no, it should be more serious - at least China's imperial examination is for the whole people, while the North Korean imperial examination only has two classes to take the exam, the class solidification is more serious, and the elite of the whole society is a group of useless literati doctors.
Emperor Zhu did not object to reading the books of sages, and it was very good to read a little bit of the truth of loyalty and patriotism, and Emperor Zhu was very supportive.
But you can't read it for a lifetime.
If the elite of a country reads the Four Books and the Five Classics to death, does not participate in production, does not create wealth, then can the country develop?
Emperor Zhu didn't want his son to rule a tinkling Korea.
If the old fourteen ruled the poor bastard Korean country like a certain cosmic power in the later generations, he would go to his eldest brother Zhu Yichi every once in a while to fight the autumn wind.
That's too irritating.
Jinshan Governor's Palace, Jinshan City.
"Big brother, what can I do now, why are all such important things lost, we are here to join the second uncle, not to join the collective farm!"
It was a tall young man who was drinking corn wine in a sip with an annoyed look on his face.
"Forget it, if you go to the collective farm, you can go to the collective farm, and you are also an official."
"Jiupin officials are also officials? What kind of training do you want to attend, you should have gone to Chengdu if you knew it. β
"Why is the Jiupin official not an official, and he will go back in June next year."
The two young men sat in the tavern of Jinshan City with their heads drooped and drank wine.
They are Li Zhongyi's two eldest nephews, Li Zhongren and Li Da's two eldest sons, Li Dao and Li De.
Originally, they came to defect to their second uncle Li Zhongyi, but when they arrived in Jinshan City, they found that the checks and identification certificates in hand were actually taken away by pickpockets. γ
That's a big deal.
They can't prove their identity, and no one believes that they are here to defect to their relative Li Zhongyi.
Now there are two options for them.
One is to join collective farms and farm land, like most immigrants from Sichuan.
Another is to participate in the official selection examination in Jinshan City - in fact, it is very easy to pass, there are too few literate people in this place, basically as long as you can write and calculate, you will be a nine-rank official.
It's too easy to get an office.
But the Li brothers are unwilling.
They had brought a thousand dollars with them, hoping to hire a group of men to enclose the land and build a farm, but now they lost their checksβeven if they stole their checks, they couldn't get the money.
The cheque was a registered cheque.
But they don't have a check in hand, so they can't withdraw the money.
The Li family brothers, who became poor eggs, had no choice but to accept their fate.
It is better to stay in Jinshan City and participate in the training of officials than to go to the collective farm.
In any case, it is much better to be an official and go to the grass people.
The two brothers were grumbling.
I heard a cold snort of mockery.
Li Dao looked up, and it turned out to be a man wearing a red robe with quail embroidered on the complement holding a wine glass, with a mocking look on his face.
The Li brothers looked at each other.
They are now considered to be alternate nine-rank officials, and they are not afraid of this nine-rank sesame official.
Li Daogong arched his hand and said, "This lord."
"Don't call me an adult, I can't stand it, I can't stand it." The Jiupin official took another sip of wine.
"Do you really think you'll be able to go back next June? Dream on! β
The Li brothers looked at each other: "This is the case. How? β
The Nine Rank Official looked left and right, lowered his voice and said, "The Son of Heaven is doing everything possible to immigrate to the New World, how can he easily let you wait to go back." β
"I'm waiting for an official!"
"Officer? So what? And ah. In the future, if you are an official here in the New World, don't put on any official stands, beware of being beaten! β
"Hit? Who dares to fight an official? β
"Hehe, let me tell you, don't look at the immigrants who came with you are honest and obedient people, and those who have been in this place for a year and a half will not take you and me, the nine-grade petty officials, in their eyes."
"The adults laughed, the official is the official, the people are the people, and wherever they go, the people are afraid of being officials."
"Hmph"
The Jiupin official snorted coldly, looking like you would have known it sooner or later.
Right now.
A man dressed in fur walked in, carrying the carcass of an animal on his shoulder, and swaggered to the hotel shopkeeper.
"Shopkeeper, take the game?"
"Close! Harvest! You wait, I'll give you the money. "The shopkeeper is polite.
"Okay, give me another pot of good wine and two side dishes."
Say this.
The man looked around and found that there was a place in front of the Li brothers, so he swaggered to the table next to him and sat down.
The Li family brothers' faces changed slightly.
Their family is a tyrant in Daqiao Town.
Ordinary people have to bow their heads when they touch them.
And now they are wearing robes, as well as official bodies, and there is an official wearing official uniforms next to them.
This common people dare to sit on an equal footing with the officials?
There are no rules at all!
"Shopkeeper! Bang this out of here! β
Li De and Li Erye were already on fire, and immediately slapped the table and shouted.
The woman paused for a moment and turned her head to look at Li Dao and Li De's brothers.
The Li brothers also looked at the woman, the woman was very unpleasant, but both of them felt as if they had seen it somewhere.
'I can't do it, two masters, this is from Zhuangzi! The shopkeeper hurried over.
"Zhuangzi? Which Zhuangzi is on? β
I haven't waited for the shopkeeper's answer.
Boom.
The woman threw a package wrapped in a round object with the smell of blood in front of the Li brothers.
The two of them trembled.
"Everybody's Head"
Li De shuddered.
"What's wrong with the collective farm?" The woman spoke.
"You two are Li Zhongyi's nephews, right?"
The Li brothers froze for a moment.
Li Da hurriedly stood up and asked, "Are you?" β
"Your aunt!"
The woman stood up and said, holding the head.
"Shopkeeper, don't want the wine and meat, my hometown is here."
"Alright, alright." The shopkeeper also laughed.
"Let's go, what are you doing in a daze?"
"Where to go?"
"Go to your uncle."
