Chapter 42: The Only Changer! (Ask for collection)

Fusu secretly bowed.

South Korea used to have a well-developed handicraft industry, and he had heard of it.

However, it is impossible for Daqin to change the system of arranging households and people, and standardization and institutionalization are the national policy of Daqin, and it is impossible to change it easily.

Only by institutionalizing standardization can we increase the speed of production.

It can also greatly reduce losses.

Comparing the two styles of workmanship, he thinks that Qin is superior.

Ji Heng pillowed his head with his hands, just lay on the ground, looked at the eaves with his eyes, and said lightly: "Then there is Qi Guo, and it is also the last one." ”

"There are two ways to change the law in the Qi country."

"The first time is Guan Zhong's change of law, and the second time is of Zou Ji's change of law."

"There is an interval of more than 300 years between the two changes, one is Jiang Qi and the other is Tian Qi, which should not be compared, but although there is Tian Qi in the middle, the political system of Qi itself has not changed much, and the impact of Guan Zhong's reform is more far-reaching."

"That's it."

"The focus of the Guanzhong Reform Law is business."

"The main thing is the business of trade and industry, and the benefits of fish and salt."

"As for the specific measures......"

Ji Heng's face was solemn.

Before he crossed over, he didn't know much about Guan Zhong.

But after these lifetimes, he admires Guan Zhong a lot.

This man was unusually forward-looking.

Ji Heng Zhengse said: "I will say a few more words about Guan Zhong's change, because Guan Zhong's change is two extremes of Shang Ying's change. ”

"One is merchant-oriented, the other is agricultural."

"You can figure out for yourself whether it's good or bad."

"But I also want to say one more thing, it is a stone of the mountain, and it can attack jade."

"In my opinion, some concepts are beyond the contemporary, or even far beyond them."

"If future generations can follow suit, it may be able to extend the national honor."

Hear the words.

Hu Hai looked suspicious.

He really didn't expect Ji Heng to have such a high evaluation of Guan Zhong's change method.

But as Ji Heng said, the Guan Zhong Reform Law and the Great Qin Shang Martingale Reform Law are almost two extremes.

Where can Daqin follow suit?

Partition wall.

Fusu sat upright.

Ji Heng has talked a lot about it in the past ten days.

But it was the first time he had heard Ji Heng so solemn.

even bluntly said that it could extend the national ancestry.

This surprised him.

If he remembers correctly, the effect of Guan Zhong's change is not good, and even the Qi State has declined for a lifetime.

Why did this change make Ji Heng pay so much attention?

Fusu shifted and pointed his ear at the wall, hoping to hear clearly.

Ji Heng took a deep breath and said slowly: "One of the contents of the Guan Zhong Reform Law is 'Shinong Industry and Commerce, and the Four People Divide Industry', which divides and manages all social strata according to occupations, and "industry and commerce" and "Shinong" are juxtaposed, thinking that these people are 'the stone people of the country, and the foundation of the public'. ”

"There are no advantages or disadvantages between Shinong and business."

"Specifically, the people are divided into scholars, people, craftsmen, and merchants, and then they live in fixed areas according to their respective specialties, so that they can easily exchange experiences, improve skills, promote the production and circulation of goods, and create a professional atmosphere and a stable social and educational environment."

"And then let the society move forward steadily."

"It's a bit prescient."

"It's just too subjective, coupled with the fact that the same behavior is wrong, under the self-cherishing and mutual tilting of the broom, failure is doomed."

"But the idea of moving society steadily forward is the right one."

"The world is changing."

"If you are poor, you will change, and if you change, you will be able to do it for a long time."

"This change is passive, it is a helpless move, and it is a last resort."

"But if you can follow the changes in the world, or even lead the changes in the world, is it possible not to be 'poor', and does it mean that there is always room for maneuver?"

"Won't it be too much to return?"

"The second article of the Guanzhong Reform Law is to 'invigorate the micro and control the macro'."

"Stimulate the development of commodity economy internally, reduce tariffs externally, encourage free trade, and activate the market."

"In a nutshell."

"It is to start with finance, taxation and price to manage the overall situation."

"And be flexible in terms of food prices and taxes, establish a national grain storage system, control grain price fluctuations to achieve a balance between abundance and hunger, and use price fluctuations to regulate the economy and increase national income."

"The third is the 'salt and iron franchise'."

"This is a startling feat in my opinion."

"Guan Zhong said it very thoroughly, that is, 'tax is at the price' and 'taken from the invisible, so that people are not angry'."

"This practice is more subtle and more lucrative than other taxes."

"The fourth is to 'encourage consumption'."

"The production of goods can be boosted through consumption."

"Guan Zhong mentioned in "Guanzi Riding Horses" that when the people are in arrears, the people have no jobs to do, and the state should vigorously carry out the construction of palaces and pavilions to promote people's employment and protect people's livelihood and balance the economy.

"Although many of the changes are just formalities, they have not really been implemented."

"But these concepts are extremely advanced and thought-provoking."

Ji Heng's voice echoed in the room.

He knew that the 'Ji Gongzi' in front of him might not think so.

After all, the Guan Zhong method cannot be called a success.

After Qi changed the law, he only prospered for one lifetime, and then declined.

In the future, it was replaced by Tian.

But as a posterity, he was well aware of the correctness of these ideas.

This kind of practice of stimulating economic recovery and promoting employment through the government's investment in fixed assets was not explored in the West until Roosevelt's New Deal, and Guan Zhong put forward this idea more than 2,000 years earlier than the West.

If the writing on "Pipes, Riding Horses" is true, this concept can continue to be traced upwards.

It can even be traced back to the ancient Yu clan.

That's the foundation!

Ji Heng couldn't sigh in his heart.

The ancients may have only failed to meet the conditions for production, but the theory has been prepared for a long time.

And Guan Zhong is also worthy of being a big businessman.

Proficient in the way of capital.

Guan Zhong's idea is to stop the war with business and hegemony with peace.

Develop the commodity economy internally, so that the people will be prosperous and will not rebel.

Expand foreign trade with foreign countries, maintain balance with military deterrence, and use the supply and demand relationship in trade between countries to subdue neighboring countries.

Guan Zhong's ideal state after changing the law, he can even find a correspondence in the future life.

Ji Heng shook his head.

Calm down your ups and downs.

Although he was very amazed by the content of Guan Zhong's change.

However, he also knows that the Guan Zhong Reform Law is only an empty point of view, and it is difficult to actually implement it.

It can't be implemented at all.

At that time, the social productive forces could not support this social change.

Moreover, the society is moving in that direction, how to improve technology, how to develop productive forces, Guan Zhong did not give an answer.

Just put forward some empty avant-garde views.

Hu Hai coughed dryly, and said with a slightly different expression: "Ji Heng, Guan Zhong's change, although I haven't heard of it, but as you said, the monarchs of Qi have all changed, what is there to praise about this change?" ”

"Shang Jun's change of law is the way to enrich the country and strengthen the army."

"I've read a lot of books and heard a lot of people speak, but no one has ever mentioned the Guan Zhong Reform."

"This is enough to prove the failure of the management and reform law."

Ji Heng nodded and said, "Guan Zhong's reform is indeed a failure, because his concept is too advanced to be implemented, but because of this, Guan Zhong's reform is even more valuable in the world's reforms." ”

"Because he is the first Fa changer of the Legalist family!"

"And the only one!"
