Chapter 481: Natural Selection, Survival of the Fittest

Killing chickens with a knife means in popular sayings that you don't have to use great effort to do small things, but in the eyes of Confucian scholars, this sentence means that governing a small country also uses etiquette and music, which is a debate between Confucius and his disciple Ziyou about governing the country, and Zhu Yijun has learned the true meaning of this sentence.

The reason why Wang Chonggu has to put so much effort into it is entirely because of the importance of the government, factories and regiments.

The official factory group building is to stimulate inertia or a stable state of the powerful right to leave the land and invest in the workshop, to settle because the world is trapped in mergers and acquisitions everywhere hooligans, used to lead the Ming Dynasty to the commodity economy metamorphosis is an important means, perhaps in the eyes of scholars, the humble craftsman is just a villain, but for Wang Chonggu, is the foundation of his gorgeous turn.

Therefore, he came up with three methods to manage the appeasement of nepotism in the official factory and copy the homework of his political opponent Zhang Juzheng, without any hesitation at all, which is called peace of mind.

Wang Daokun, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, expressed his deep agreement on this matter, the Ministry of Industry was originally at the end of the six ministries, and the transparent people in the court have become more and more vocal with the gradual implementation of the law of government, factories and regiments.

"The official factory group construction method is indeed the combination of the military guard and the craftsmen who live in the early days of the country, time flies, today is not the other day, even if it is the same, there is a fundamental difference, if you consider it from the perspective of production diagrams, then we can easily come to the conclusion that the productivity of the government and factory group will progress rapidly with the progress of machinery, and sooner or later, it will be able to provide people with enough goods." Wang Daokun disagreed with some of the views of the Songjiang School.

The Songjiang school believes that the official factory group construction = the military tun guard, but the production relationship of the military tun guard is a contradictory unity between the tenant and the landlord, while the official factory group construction is not the case, limited by the influence of land output, resulting in the output of the military tun guard can not meet the population growth of the military tun guard.

At the beginning of the country, the population was small and the land was large, and a household could manage a cow's land, and the land of a cow was the land that an ox could plow, about 100 acres, but with the passage of time, there were more and more people, and the land became less, and the contradiction between man and land began to be highlighted, and at this time a family may only have ten or even twenty acres of land.

Changes in agricultural production have never been achieved overnight, with two divisions, three divisions, and five fertilizers, and if you want to produce a breakthrough in agricultural production, you will be measured in a hundred years.

The technological progress of the official factory group is visible to the naked eye, which is why Wang Daokun attaches so much importance to the government factory group building, it is not a chicken now, but a cow, and it may become a strong cow in the future.

"Engineer Regiment Battalion." Zhang Juzheng mentioned one of the most divisive places in the court.

Wang Chonggu, Wang Daokun, and Zeng Shengwu led the firm support of the Criminal Department, the Military Department, and the Ministry of Industry, and the Engineer Regiment Battalion was promoted to the locality, and there were many hooligans, public order was chaotic, civil unrest broke out, violations of the law were widespread, and the Criminal Department existed in name only.

Zhang Juzheng, Wang Guoguang, and Wan Shihe opposed the immediate implementation of the engineer regiment battalion, and the two sides had several confrontations around the engineer regiment battalion, but no one could help anyone.

Wan Shihe smiled at Wang Chonggu and said: "I am too anxious to beg for hot tofu, I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry, Wang Cifu can wait a little, wait for the system of the engineer regiment battalion to be more perfect, otherwise a raw melon and egg will be pushed to the two capitals and fourteen provinces of the Ming Dynasty, and if something goes wrong, the imperial court will turn over the baked cakes, and it will be lost to lose face, but if this system is to be realized, it will be difficult to reach the sky, because it has been proven wrong." ”

"Wang Cifu, you don't want the engineer battalion to fail, do you?"

Wang Chonggu was blocked, Wan Shihe said some truth, once practice proves that it is not feasible, then the engineer battalion in the Wanli Dynasty will not be able to implement it again, to maintain the stability of the dynasty, in Wang Chonggu's view, has never been a derogatory term.

Wang Chonggu said unwillingly: "In my opinion, it is not a big deal, in fact, you can let the local try to form, follow the trend of the court, the court policy changes, the local also changes, and the local can also be in practice, constantly adapt measures to local conditions, the situation in the Ming Dynasty is different, and the specific policies will also have subtle differences." ”

The new policy of the Wanli Restoration, in the Ming Dynasty is not completely consistent, the implementation of the local have some subtle differences, for example, the Ming Dynasty in Yunnan, Guizhou, Sichuan and Guizhou, will not prohibit the gathering of people to give lectures, if there are scholars to go, will also give the road fee with a post, this is the Xingwen education and education of the local Tusi, and the strength of the Qingzhang is very weak, Yunnan even acquiesced to the annexation of land by the Qianguo Mansion, the main contradiction is different, the decrees are different.

Obviously, in this matter, the conservative is Zhang Juzheng, and the radical is Wang Chonggu.

"Wang Cifu, we all climbed up from the place, the court changes, will the place really change?" Wan Shihe shook his head and said: "This is impossible, it is advisable to have fewer loopholes from the beginning." ”

"Okay." Wang Chonggu finally admitted it, and put up with it for a while, but now the system is full of loopholes, and it still needs to be carefully polished.

After this most-for-tat issue, the atmosphere in the Mandarin Hall became much more relaxed.

Li Chengliang took an inch in Liaodong, expanded more than 100 miles of land, and set up six tunbao, which has become an annual practice, every year Li Chengliang has to expand the soil, mainly the black soil is really very attractive.

Wanli a total of ten years, Li Chengliang to expand the soil 600 miles, Li Chengliang with the annual expansion of the soil to express his deference, every year to expand the soil is not equal, and this year, Li Chengliang's Tunpu has arrived at Jilin Shipyard.

Jilin Shipyard, specially sent Liaodong Commander Liu Qing in Yongle 18 years, Hongxi first year, Xuande 7 years three times to lead the army here to build shipbuilding, the huge shipyard, has become a link and key to connect the Beijing Division, Liaodong Division, Nuer Gandu Division.

"Liaodong Commander Liu Qing saw a bunch of golden chickens in the woods, so he named it Jilin, and later thought it was not good, so it was changed to Jilin." Wan Shihe talked about the origin of the name Jilin, which is also an interesting story.

Hubu Shangshu Wang Guoguang said with emotion: "Daming Tunbao is expanding, and the people of Daming are going to Liaodong to make a living, the land is fertile, and it can feed a group of people once a year." ”

"The geographical location of Beiya is extremely important, because it is the key to the two largest grain-producing areas in the Ming Dynasty, and the key place in the strategic area."

The map is becoming more and more refined, and the large-scale cultivation area suitable for cultivation, the junction of the North China Plain and the Liaodong Plain, is the Beiya, based on agriculture and mulberry, and the geographical location of the Beiya is particularly important.

Perhaps, when Emperor Cheng Zuwen opened up the Nuer Gandu Division, it was to prove the correctness of the northward migration and open up a grain production area, but for various reasons, Emperor Cheng Zuwen did not finish this matter.

This place in Jilin is the place of Shitu County during the Yongle and Xuande periods, with the general trend of Xingwen and Wuwu, the direction of Daming Liaodong completely shrank in the Great Wall area along the Tieling and Fushun, which makes the Ming Liaodong Division always be in a passive defense, unable to attack in a dilemma, Daming knows less and less about things outside the pass, and the control ability is getting weaker and weaker.

This is really a very dangerous signal, once the Jianzhou Jurchen, Haixi Jurchen, Savage Jurchen, Transkhalkha, and Tatar left-wing Tubarian Khan complete the merger, the Ming Dynasty will be completely in the predicament of fierce war.

After driving out the Tatar left-wing Tuban Khan tribes, the Ming Dynasty did not sit back and relax in the eastern direction of Liaodong, but needed to further advance and complete the Shitu County.

Now Li Chengliang has been doing this, and Dr. Daming Gewu went to Liaodong to draw a more precise map.

Fortunately for the court, Li Chengliang did not continue to show signs of becoming a feudal town, it seems that Li Chengliang did not want to be An Lushan of the Ming Dynasty, and An Lushan Shi Siming was able to rebel in the Tang Dynasty because of the connivance of Tang Xuanzong, and also because of the Tang Dynasty's harsh policy on the land of the three towns of Hebei.

Emperor Ming did not condone Li Chengliang, and was often vigilant about Li Chengliang, which even Li Chengliang's son Li Rusong knew very well, Qi Jiguang said more than once that whether Li Chengliang would slide to the feudal town mainly depends on whether the Beijing camp is strong, and he can't think about it if the Beijing camp is strong, and the Beijing camp is weak, he just doesn't want to have to be a feudal town.

Li Rusong thinks: Qi Shuai is right.

The court is engaged in the martial arts all day long, and even the civil officials can kill the military attache first (Wang Ji killed An Jing), and Fang Junzhen over there has a grudge, and he will not work if he does not counter, and he will put three guns on the sky, worthy of the imperial court, who is a good person and a good Daming Ning Yuanhou is not appropriate, and he is the king of the mountain of wild monkeys?

On the contrary, various decrees supported Li Chengliang to open up in Liaodong, loyal to the monarch and the marquis Yu Zhao, and repeatedly asked for the Tuntian policy, organized the people into households, and even Shandong had to transport grain to the Liaodong capital every year, and the Liaodong capital division was also the first military region to achieve full salary, and when the Wanli second year crusade against Gule Village, it made up the full salary, one year earlier than the other nine sides.

Liaodong has lost the foundation of feudal townization, top-down, bottom-up foundation, Li Chengliang is now more like a Ming loyal monarchy, reliable pioneer general, rampant in Liaodong, and now has expanded to Jilin, and asked for the reset of the shipyard.

"Recently, the Interpretation Institute has been on the Tao, and the content is quite mysterious, please take a look." Zhang Ju said with a strange expression: "The chief medical officer of the Liberation Academy, from the matter of natural selection, argues the distinction of Huayi. ”

Zhang Ju's face was mixed, and when he saw the title of this book, he only felt that the chief doctor of the Jie Yuan was crazy, but after reading it carefully, he felt that it was very reasonable, logical, and self-consistent, and could explain many problems.

A strange thing.

"What's that? Argument for Huayi's distinction? "The Ministry of Rites Shangshu Wanshi and a little numb, Huayi's distinction is an important battlefield of etiquette, and as a result, the chief medical officer of the Liberation Academy has to explain it from a biological point of view.

The Resolution House is about change and choice.

Everything has to start with the moth of the Mentougou Xishan Coal Bureau.

Soot caused the moths in Xishan to turn black, because it was more difficult to be found by natural enemies, and white gradually became scarce, which is natural selection and human selection, Li Shizhen and Chen Shigong, the chief medical officers of the Liberation Academy, noticed this fact, and naturally got a "Theory of Natural Selection" and "Theory of Human Selection" to assert that the evolution and variation of species in the biological world are based on the evolution of natural selection, and also the evolution of human selection.

Natural selection, natural selection, human selection, artificial selection.

The changes of these fluttering moths have led to the thinking of the Enlightenment on the evolution of human beings, from Maoru drinking blood, to stable farming, and then establishing a gathering place, forming a stable ecology, and the influence of nature on humans has become weak, whether humans have stopped evolving, is the concern of the Solution.

Soon, the temple was relieved because they saw from Takarashi that breeding was an artificial choice.

Human beings have domesticated livestock plants, and constantly selected livestock plants according to demand, making human life easier, such as the rice of the two Song Dynasty Zhancheng gradually replaced the traditional rice, such as the sweet potato that is now rescuing the famine, and the yield has been rising under continuous selection and breeding.

Human selection, as opposed to natural selection, is more purposeful and faster.

Human selection interferes with the evolution of crops and livestock, so does human selection interfere with human beings themselves?

The answer is yes.

The evolution of human beings is accelerating, and this is the thinking about human evolution under the framework of "Natural Selection" and "Anthropic".

"First of all, the "Theory of Natural Selection" of the Interpretation Institute can be described as a shocking stone, a word that breaks the sky, which is worthy of affirmation, natural selection, survival of the fittest, simple eight words, summing up the infinite principle of all things." Wan Shihe first affirmed the theory of natural selection, he explained: "The eight words of natural selection and survival of the fittest are His Majesty's annotations to the theory of natural selection. ”

The courtiers glanced at Wan Shihe and were quite disgusted, Wan Shihe really seized the opportunity to make a fool of himself, and it was all costly.

is obviously so proficient in etiquette and can rely on his ability to be an upright Ming Gong, but all day long, he only knows that he is sloppy and patting horses, which is simply insulting.

The Ming Gong also admitted that His Majesty's eight words summed up the theory of natural selection very well, and the theory of natural selection is about nature's interference in the evolution of species, in addition to the theory of natural selection, it is the interference of human activities in the evolution of species, the theory of human selection.

"If this thing is seen by those missionaries in Taixi, I am afraid that they will be furious and crusade against Daming." Wang Chonggu felt that this theory of natural selection was completely contrary to the creation of the world by God, and that the theory of natural selection would get a natural inference that human beings themselves were their own gods.

Because people are interfering, making choices, and interfering with plants and animals in an all-round way, the big moths in Mentougou, the seedlings of Baoqisi, and the horse breeds in the Daningwei enclosure are all the results of human interference.

Tessie's Holy See has a far-reaching influence, and this thing will be banned by the Holy See when it spreads to Tessie, which is a demon book that is contrary to Tiangang and shakes the foundation of the Holy See.

Daming didn't have this kind of worry at all, it was originally people-oriented, Li Chengliang bombed the Dragon King Temple, and he didn't see the Dragon King turn over the river and the sea, and wanted to kill Li Chengliang, after all, Li Chengliang really had artillery.

"But the rest of the content is debatable." Zhang Juzheng signaled everyone to look back, the previous natural selection, human selection, are the practice of practice, species in the process of reproduction, there will be various changes, the change of the natural environment has chosen these changes, human interference is more direct than the natural environment, and the purpose is stronger, the speed of evolution is faster.

The latter part is the argument of the choice argument of Huayi.

The Chinese population is large, since the pre-Qin era, the population of the Central Plains is far ahead of the world, the population base is huge, resulting in an increase in human changes, and the Spring and Autumn Warring States 800 years of chaotic war, cruel human choice began, short, weak, not smart enough people continue to die in the cruel internal dumping, future generations become stronger, and then more cruel dynastic reincarnation.

The intensity of the war in the dynastic cycle, the great demographic decline and post-war population increase, and the drastic changes in society further accelerated the evolution of the people themselves.

Population determines change, and violent upheaval chooses change.

In the theory of natural selection, the speed of natural selection is far inferior to the speed of human selection, because the changes in the natural environment are calculated in a hundred years, but the intensity of man's purposeful choice is much higher than that of natural selection, and the intensity of war and the intensity of population change in the Central Plains are much higher than that of the world.

That is, only a huge number of people can have more changes, and more drastic selections have chosen to change, so that those who cannot adapt are eliminated, resulting in the physique, intelligence and other nature of the Central Plains people, which are far greater than those of other people in the world.

"It actually makes a lot of sense." The Ministry of Rites Shangshu Wanshi and the first of all, the theory of natural selection and the theory of human selection, the greater choice of human choice than natural selection, the huge population and cruel selection of the Central Plains, and the larger-scale changes and choices in both horizontal and vertical aspects led to the superiority of the Central Plains people over the rest of the world.

The logic is self-consistent, and there is no problem.

Zhang Juzheng frowned and said, "Does it make sense?" Tessie's shipbuilding had gained a commodity advantage, and if it weren't for His Majesty's determination to open the sea, this advantage would have been further expanded. ”

"I don't think this argument is beneficial to the Ming Dynasty, Tessie's speculation after the fall of Rome was in full swing, and the great travel culture made these speculations more efficient, this superiority theory is the starting point of self-style, and it is the enemy of life and death of the Central Plains civilization."

"Da Ming is already so powerful, just stop and enjoy the peace, isn't this the starting point of Xingwen Kuanwu at the beginning?"

"It is true that the theory of natural selection can explain many phenomena that we cannot explain, and the first part is worthy of affirmation, but the latter part is better not to preach."

Weakness and ignorance are not obstacles to survival, arrogance is, the two Song Dynasty are rich in the world, culture and its prosperity, the arrogance that looks down on anyone, so that the two Song Dynasty did not see the danger brewing, the Northern Song Dynasty died in the Jin State, and the Southern Song Dynasty died in Hulu.

Expelled the Tartars, restored China, established discipline for Chen Gang, and relieved the people.

Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang of the Ming Dynasty has already carried out it once, if he still holds Huayi's distinction and lives empty-eyed, then can he still expect another Zhu Yuanzhang in the Central Plains?

Why does this kind of luck befall you Han people every time?

This is the reason why Zhang Juzheng opposes "The Theory of Natural Selection" and "The Theory of Human Choice", he thinks about this issue from a historical perspective, and this kind of deliberately arrogant rhetoric is not advisable.

Daming is strong, but not strong enough.

"It doesn't include other factors, just the biological changes and choices of people." Wan Shihe added.

"That's not going to work either." Zhu Yijun said directly: "Natural selection, human selection to discuss changes and choices, talking about natural selection, survival of the fittest, this is worth publicizing, but the latter part of the superiority theory is not necessary, stop at the Wenhua Palace, arrogance and arrogance, is a shameful behavior, even Qi Shuai, every battle must be lost, and then win, and then a hundred battles to win." ”

"Inflated and complacent, never advisable."

Zhu Yijun set the tone for this discussion, this is the shaping of public opinion in the wind, that is, no matter how reasonable what the Interpretation Institute said, this kind of arrogance and arrogance are all stumbling blocks that hinder Daming's determination to forge ahead.

"Obey the holy teachings." Wan Shihe had no choice but to bow to his head.

Your Majesty always has a strange sense of urgency, although Daming Zhongxing has not yet been completed, there is still some distance from the grand occasion of Yongle at the beginning, but His Majesty's sense of urgency, the sense of urgency of the Ming Dynasty's strength, has never weakened in the slightest, and even as he grows older, it shows more and more intense urgency.

Zhu Yijun did not explain this sense of urgency, in this feudal imperial system, the emperor was wise and natural, and there was a certain sacredness in the Wanli period, Zhu Yijun could actually pretend to be a dream of heaven and man to shape a kind of mystery and consolidate his imperial power.

But for the Ming Emperor, the mystery is of no use at all, but pretends to be a ghost, and the emperor seems to be timid, just like the Taoist Xuanxiu.

Emperor Ming is the king of the world, scholars and doctors will not give up their ideas and behaviors because of the emperor's mystery, Zhu Di Jing succeeded in becoming the only emperor in history who rebelled and successfully ascended the throne, claiming that he was the reincarnation of Emperor Zhenwu, Yongle 19 years, the newly built three major halls of Beiya were burned clean, the Ming people did not believe in this thing at all, and it was not a monotheistic world.

Zhu Yijun really couldn't say to the proud Zhang Juzheng:

Heaven and man grant dreams, after the death of Mr., all the achievements of the new deal have been liquidated, the Ming Dynasty is declining, the Dongyi and the North are confluence, the battle of Sarhu is a defeat of the Ming Dynasty, and now Nurhachi, who is now made into a specimen, established the Houjin, the Ming Dynasty has been defeated again and again, the small slave chief Huang Taiji established the Tatar Qing, the Ming Dynasty died in the civil unrest, Chongzhen in Li Zicheng entered the Beijing after hanging the coal mountain, the Southern Ming Dynasty infighting, the Tatar Qing Dynasty entered the customs and sat firmly in the country, the Central Plains civilization died in the hands of the captives, and the world has undergone drastic changes for a hundred years, and the ships and guns have been mounted on the coastline of the Central Plains, and the tragedy of a hundred years of humiliation.

This is too cruel for Zhang Juzheng.

Therefore, Zhu Yijun is very urgent, and this sense of urgency is interpreted by the courtiers as: dedication to making meritorious contributions.

It is not surprising that the emperor wants to make a contribution, and it is very reasonable.

Zhu Yiyi listened to the content of the court discussion with great interest, change led to diversity, and cruel competition made choices for change, Zhu Yiyi could understand this, so he felt that he had no problem liking the beauty of all countries! Because he has increased the diversity of the Ming people! More variations are made.

There is another paragraph between the theory of natural selection and the theory of human choice that was not discussed in the court discussion, that is, in the upheaval without earth-shaking and dynastic changes, the theory of anthropy is still affecting everyone.

The world is trapped in mergers, people who are not strong enough and lack of intelligence can not obtain enough materials, and it will become very difficult to marry a daughter-in-law, which is also a subtle, not so drastic but real artificial choice, the poor are the poorer the richer, the stronger and the more beautiful will be combined, wisdom and wealth will be combined, this is the right thing, the chief medical officer of the Jie Yuan generally believes that the intensity that eventually leads to this artificial choice is actually not weaker than war.

The last paragraph is even more deviant than the theory of superiority, and the court has not discussed it at all.

Two-thirds of the recital of the Jieyuan was directly cut off, and only the theory of natural choice and the theory of human choice could be published in the newspaper and miscellaneous newspapers, and the subsequent court discussion made Zhu Yiyi yawn again and again, which was really boring, it was all a battle between people's hearts and ghosts, and meaningless internal friction.

After the court meeting, Zhu Yiyi immediately slipped away and went to prepare for his wedding.

"Your Majesty, today's "Escapade" has been delivered." Zhang Hong sent the miscellaneous newspaper edited by Lin Fucheng of the Songjiang School to the palace.

Zhu Yijun looked at it with great interest, this time Lin Fucheng was mainly talking about the establishment of a more free employment relationship, rather than a slave relationship of strong personal dependence, Lin Fucheng has now become an advocate of the imperial decree, mainly talking about the rationality of abolishing the untouchable.

Slaves can only do repetitive, meaningless work, can not do any creative work, the transformation of production relations to large-scale free employment relations, to the Ming Dynasty far-reaching, the abolition of lowly status, no longer recognize the deed of sale, is the first step, no freedom there is no creation, no creation there is no technological progress, the improvement of productivity, in order to make material rich.

In addition to advocating the imperial court's decree to abolish the untouchable status, Lin Fucheng also met with Tessie's envoys, Le Agsil, Diego de and others, and discussed the City of Freedom, the corner of freedom occupied by the Portuguese a hundred years ago, full of all kinds of freedom without any restrictions, but it is a lair of infinite magnification of the true evil of human nature.

It was only recently that the House of the Wise brought some changes to the Free City.

This conversation is extremely interesting, Li Yashi, who was born in Taixi, kept refuting Lin Fucheng's views, but Lin Fucheng insisted on his own opinion, and Li Yashi's reasons for refutation were very sufficient, and he came up with Zhang Juzheng's public and private theories.

Li Yashi thinks that the Ming Dynasty is too free, there is no need to continue to admire, everyone in the world has their own home, each for their own interests, each has its own interests, people have their own interests, as far as maritime trade is concerned, the tariffs of the Ming Dynasty are only six per 100 value, and the maritime merchants are still chattering, put it in Taixi, then they have to shout that Felipe is invincible, and the tariffs of Taixi countries remain high, and Daming is so light on taxes, it is really a blessing.

Daming does not lack freedom, but lacks public heart, public morality, and lack of Hong, that is, the heart of the world, and the big case of Guiyanwan Private Market is ironclad evidence.

And Lin Fucheng's version of the anecdote is about the scope of freedom, to the effect that freedom belongs to the necessity of every Ming person.

Zhu Yijun finished reading the miscellaneous newspapers, put them aside, and picked up the Nagasaki Governor Xu Wei's recital, this time Xu Wei played nothing else, begging for the Ming treasure banknote, the last Nagasaki trade fair was quite successful, and the daimyo of the Wa Kingdom tasted the sweetness of the seigniorage, and began to crazy wealth mode.

Zhu Yijun picked up a silver coin in his hand, which was a silver coin issued by Oda Nobunaga, in order to fight against the Ming treasure banknote.
