Chapter 58 A good system is one that can fit the times
"Do you still want to go to class?"
"If you don't want to go to class, let's go back to sleep, and if you want to go to class, just sit honestly for me, don't keep interrupting!"
"Okay?"
Seeing Lin Che say this, Zhu Fan knew that the other party was not angry, and hurriedly said:
"Mr. Lin, you continue!"
"Let's promise never to interrupt again!"
"Let's just sit and listen to the lecture honestly, don't worry!"
Hearing this, the corners of Lin Che's mouth twitched, and he said helplessly:
"It's just a broken mouth, how many times have you promised me, which one counts?"
When Zhu Fan heard this, his face turned red, and he said embarrassedly:
"This is the last guarantee!"
Lin Che didn't bother to bother with him anymore, he just wanted to finish his lecture early and go back to sleep.
"In short, if you want the Ming Dynasty to have long-term peace and stability, you must abolish the household registration system!"
"And that damn guard military household system can't stay!"
"Otherwise, sooner or later, the Ming Dynasty will have to die!"
"The military household system of the guard?"
Zhu Zhang's eyes widened, he couldn't believe that there was something wrong with this system.
Zhu Fan is good at martial arts, and often follows his cousin Li Wenzhong to study in the military camp.
Have an understanding of the army's guard house and military household system.
The Ming army was divided into two levels: roughly 5,600 people were guarded, and the one who managed the guard was called the commander.
The guard is divided into five thousand households, and the number of people in the house is one thousand and twenty, and the chief is called a thousand households.
The 1,000 households are divided into 100 households, with 112 people and 100 governors.
There are two general flags under the hundred households, and the general flag leads five small flags.
The military household is hereditary, which ensures the source of soldiers in the army.
The treatment of military households is to pay rice on time every month, which is called monthly ration.
Soldiers with families are given one stone of rice per month, and those without wives and children are given six buckets of rice per month.
These are the basic standards, and the monthly ration is never in arrears.
When a soldier has made military achievements on the battlefield and his military rank has been raised, the monthly ration will also increase.
There is a monthly ration for the dwellers, and there is a ration for the expedition.
The Ming military household was no more than 10,000 times stronger than the tyranny of the previous dynasty.
Why has this system also become a malpractice, and it will lead to the collapse of the Ming Dynasty? !
"Sir, the military household system allows military dependents to receive food every month, and soldiers can also receive food every month, even if it is defective, it will not be a bad government!"
Zhu Fan thought left and right, and felt that there was no problem with the military household system, so he frowned and said.
He really couldn't see anything wrong with the military household system.
As a result, in the next second, Lin Che bluntly shattered the luck in his heart.
"No, the problem is very big, the plague of the military household system is so big that it is the same as the imperial examination system and the household registration system, it is a fatal problem that can destroy the country if you are not careful."
"How so?"
didn't expect the consequences to be so serious, and the stunned on Zhu Fan's face went to the next level.
"What's the perfect system to replace?"
Zhu Fan believes that the systems mentioned by Lin Che are all perfect, and it would be nice if there was a system that could be perfectly replaced.
Lin Che shook his head slowly.
"You have to remember that any system, even the one I propose, will be flawed, no more than big or small."
"The quality of the system cannot only be judged by the defects, but also by whether it fits the current times and national conditions."
"If it fits the times, it's a good system over there."
"Otherwise, no matter how good the system is, it will be useless if you copy it."
Lin Che said, taking a sip of tea to moisten his throat.
"I see, sir."
Zhu Fan was thoughtful, indeed, he relied too much on Mr.
There is no flawless system in this world, but it is just that future generations find loopholes and slowly fix them.
Progressive systems are not always good, for example, can you use communism in a feudal country?
Obviously, no, this thing will affect the whole body, and the national conditions must be comprehensively considered before the changes can be implemented, otherwise it will be self-defeating and dragging the huge empire into the abyss.
The systems proposed by Lin Che are all systems that are in line with the national conditions of the Ming Dynasty, are they flawed?
Of course.
But when the defect affects the country, the Ming Dynasty may have innovated long ago, so the impact of this defect on the Ming Dynasty is almost none.
Inside the secret room.
Zhu Yuanzhang's father and son were also affected by Lin Che's deafening remarks and fell into a huge brainstorming, which is known as 'epiphany' in Taoism.
"You now understand why I said that these two systems are no longer in line with the national conditions of the Ming Dynasty."
Hearing this, Lin Che nodded with satisfaction.
Lin Che's tireless teaching finally made Zhu Fan understand.
"Sir, I'll ask anyway."
"Although we already know that the military household system is not in line with the national conditions of the Ming Dynasty, the students still do not understand what is not in line with the national conditions?"
"Please also ask the gentleman to explain my doubts."
Zhu Fan bowed deeply to Lin Che, eager to know the answer.
Lin Che doesn't ink either.
It's good to have doubts, but I'm afraid that I don't know how to pretend to understand.
"At the end of the Yuan Dynasty, the society was in turmoil, and there were countless rebels who rose up in various places, and the people who farmed the land continued to suffer from military disasters, and the crops had long been lost."
"In that era when they didn't have enough to eat, the only choice they could be to become a soldier could barely eat."
"From the perspective of that era, the military household system was indeed an acceptable option, and it also gave the people a way to live."
"Even if you make meritorious service on the battlefield, it is possible for Ha to be a marquis and pay homage, but now the situation is different."
"It is the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, and the life of the people is quite stable, which is completely different from the scene of the poor life of the people at the end of the Yuan Dynasty."
Lin Che said a word to break through the doubts in Zhu Zhang's heart.
"Sir, do you mean that because of the transition from troubled times to peacetime, it is not in line with the national conditions of the Ming Dynasty?"
Zhu Fan took a deep breath when he heard this, and said his guess.
"Not bad!"
Lin Che nodded, that's the case.
"In troubled times, the people went to serve as soldiers, and the food they ate was grown in peacetime."
"Nowadays, the military household system is still used in peacetime, resulting in the families of the people who were previously in the army getting two strong men."
"Even if there is no man of appropriate age, even young children must be reservists, and when they reach adulthood, they will go to serve in the guards."
"So the most productive men went to the army, and the crops could only be tended by the old and the young, the women and the children."
"The food harvested by Daming is less, and the people have no spare energy to do other things, just thinking about living every day and not starving to death, you can exhaust them."
Lin Che stopped when he said this, leaving Zhu Fan some time to digest.
And the voice just fell.
In the secret room, Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly slapped his head, making Zhu Biao next to him stand up directly from the chair in shock.
"Yes, yes, we should have thought of it a long time ago!"
Zhu Yuanzhang looked shocked and enlightened, he should have thought of it a long time ago as the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty.
But he even asked Lin Che to bring it up, and he realized...
"After all, it's my poor soldiers!"
Zhu Yuanzhang closed his eyes and let out a lament.
Since he became the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, in order to consolidate the country, he has been using troops abroad, but for the common people and those military households to fight every day, they feel unbearable.
Therefore, he has not discovered the drawback of the military household system.
The so-called mystery of the authorities is clear to the bystander, and the fact that a person can regard himself as a bystander in the system of the operation of the whole country shows the vastness of his vision and the grandeur of the pattern.
Fortunately, Zhu Yuanzhang had a clearer understanding of Lin Che's vision.
