Chapter 364: Sword Name Economic Foundation, Specializing in Slashing the Superstructure!

Just looking at Meng Tian's gaze, Ying Chengcheng knew that Meng Tian definitely had 10,000 grass and mud horses running wild in his heart.

Ying Chengyun couldn't help laughing and said, "Does Meng Shilang think that he can prevent thieves from other countries by guarding it strictly?" ”

"I can't prevent it!"

"I have a lot of foreign guests in Daqin, and these many foreign guests will not hesitate to send Chang'an ploughs to various countries in exchange for rewards!"

"Instead of spending manpower and effort to strictly defend it, it is better to let it go and let all countries learn."

Great Qin lures virtuous talents with profits, and virtuous talents will inevitably be abducted by other countries with heavier interests.

Regardless of whether they are important ministers in the court or local officials, most of them are used by Great Qin for their own ideals, beliefs or interests, but few of them are courtiers who are only dedicated to Great Qin.

Changing countries is as easy as changing jobs, and they don't feel guilty.

Therefore, as long as Daqin uses the Chang'an plow, the Chang'an plow will definitely leak out.

This is a certainty that cannot be stopped by any means.

Meng Tian shook his head again and again: "Then you can't just let it go!" ”

"Even if I can block it for a few more years, it will be a huge benefit to my Great Qin!"

Ying Chengcheng patiently explained: "Zhao's trouble lies in water conservancy. ”

"The trouble of the swallow lies in the barrenness of the land."

"Qi country is hilly, water conservancy is also quite developed, Chang'an plough will definitely make Qi country's grain production skyrocket."

"The trouble of Ranqi lies in the cowardice of the monarch and the minister, and in the law of governing the country."

"This makes the Qi State only become the granary of my Great Qin even if it has abundant grain production!"

"If my Great Qin had not destroyed Han and Wei, this monarch would never have taken out the Chang'an plow."

"However, the old land of Han and Wei and the north of Yingshui have all belonged to my Great Qin, and the Zhengguo Canal in Guanzhong has also been completed, and the land that can be used for cultivation in my Great Qin is wider than that of the Three Kingdoms!"

"So this gentleman thinks that instead of using the Chang'an plough in a covert way, it is better to promote it drastically and make my Daqin's grain production skyrocket as soon as possible!"

"As for the theft of other countries? Let them go. ”

Ploughing is only one part of the farming.

Water conservancy, topography, climate, etc., will all affect the final harvest.

Yan, Zhao, and Qi were indeed able to get more food and liberate more people after getting the Chang'an plow.

But Daqin got even more benefits!

In the case of defenseless, it is better to push it out in an all-round way, so that the benefits that Daqin can get are maximized, and the strength gap with Yan, Zhao, and Qi is further widened!

Meng Tian was not persuaded by Ying Chengcheng at all, but asked, "What about Chu State?" ”

"The territory of Chu is vast, but it is difficult to cultivate because there are many mountains, hills and wastelands."

"The Chang'an plough developed by Chang'an Jun is light and easy to turn, and can be pulled by a single ox."

"The benefits of this plough are all beneficial to the Chu State!"

"If the state of Chu can get the plough of Chang'an, it will not take a few years, and the state of Chu will be able to convert a large amount of barren land into fertile land."

"This thing is beneficial to Chu, and even more important than to Qin!"

Meng Tian didn't know that on another timeline, this Quyuan plough was also known as Jiangdong plow.

This thing first appeared in the Jiangdong region, which is now Chu Guoji County and other places.

Can the farming tools built by the descendants of Chu based on the topography of Chu not be suitable for Chu State!

Ying Chengcheng asked rhetorically: "Chu State? ”

"Benjun put this plow in front of them, do they dare to take it!"

Meng Tian even suspected that Ying Chengcheng had made a mistake, and even the tone of his question was a little more hesitant: "Why don't you dare to take it?" ”

"Such a thing of a great country, naturally I want to take it!"

Ying Chengyun smiled: "Benjun is also waiting for them to take it!" ”

Meng Tian has been completely blinded by Yingcheng.

even seriously doubted whether Ying Chengcheng had reached any cooperation with the Chu State.

Otherwise, why would Ying Chengcheng expect Chu to steal the Chang'an plow!

Facing Meng Tian's eyes full of question marks, Ying Chengcheng said slowly: "Since the beginning of Wei, all countries have changed the law. ”

"However, the effectiveness of the changes varies."

"My Great Qin has changed the law most thoroughly, completely eradicating the old nobles who enslave servants in the country."

"Wei, Zhao second."

"Yan, Han, Qi again."

"Wei Chu still follows the ancient system!"

Meng Tian's brows tightened.

Regarding Ying Chengcheng's words, Meng Tian agreed.

Although Wei and Zhao still had many relatives and nobles, they could obtain titles and enjoy high positions without any military exploits.

However, both Wei and Zhao put forward the guiding ideology of 'food is hard work and meritorious', which almost eradicated the slave-owning class in the country and allowed the people of Wei and Zhao to fully unleash their people.

Although Yan, Han, and Qi did not completely eradicate the slave-owning class in China, they all more or less suppressed the slave-owning class and the old aristocratic class in China, and completed the reform to a certain extent.

Only the state of Chu repeatedly tried to change the law, but they were blocked by the stubborn old aristocracy, and they still lived with the old system.

However, what does this have to do with Chang'an plow?

Ying continued: "The changes in the laws of various countries are more or less compromises that have to be made because of the endless chaos of domestic servants. ”

"The servants of the Chu State have been in turmoil quite early, and they have made the most disturbances."

"Why can the state of Chu maintain the old system despite the dissatisfaction of the servants, so that the servants have to continue to be driven by the powerful?"

Meng Tian pondered and replied: "Because the Chu State appeases the servants who took the lead in the uprising. ”

"First buy the head of the thief with a lot of money, so that the head of the thief can also drive the servant like the powerful."

"If the thief does not obey, then he will buy the thief, and make the thief make noise or kill the thief."

"This strategy is invincible!"

As for the use of force to suppress?

Don't mention it.

Meng Tian felt ashamed of the Chu State!

It is not once or twice that the regular army of Chu State has been crushed by the servant rebel army.

Ying Cheng bowed slightly: "What Meng Shilang said is indeed a good strategy for treating servants. ”

"But in the eyes of this monarch, the Chu State's strategy against the servants of the uprising is just a technique, and this technique has been used by all countries."

"The reason why the servants of the Chu State have not been able to force the Chu State to complete the law change is because of the unique geography and landform of the Chu State!"

"The mountains and hills of Chu are thick, the vegetation is abundant, and there are many wild beasts, which are extremely difficult to cultivate."

"Even after reclamation, many acres of land are difficult to bring into the fields, and can only be cultivated by manpower, so that the grain yield is thin."

"After the servants succeeded in the rebellion, they could not fight against the Chu army for a long time, and they could not survive among the mountains and forests when they retreated."

"In order to live, the servant had to kneel at the feet of the powerful again, and let the powerful drive him."

Ying Chengcheng looked at the Chang'an plough and showed a smile: "But when the Chang'an plough is introduced to the Chu State, everything will be different!" ”

With Ying Chengcheng's narration, Meng Tian finally came to his senses.

Why did countries change the law?

A very important reason is that the servants of various countries have the ability to be self-reliant, and they can refuse the oppression and exploitation from the powerful.

Why has the state of Chu been unable to change the law for a long time?

A very important reason is that the servants of the Chu State cannot live for a long time after leaving the powerful, and they are not capable of resisting oppression and exploitation!

But now, Ying Chengcheng gave the servants of the Chu State the most advantageous weapons.

Not a sword, not armor, not a heavy crossbow.

It's the Chang'an plow!

With this plow, the servants of the Chu State can completely escape into the mountains after the victory of the uprising, find a small valley that is difficult for the Chu army to enter, quickly complete the reclamation and sowing, and form a self-sufficient small society!

Meng Tian was shocked and said: "So Chang'an Jun attaches great importance to lightness and steering when designing the Chang'an plow, and the design of this Chang'an plow is very suitable for Chudi?" ”

"Chang'an plough is sweet honey for all countries."

"But for the State of Chu, it's just a wine with sweet honey!"

Ying Chengcheng shook his head again: "This Chang'an plough is a sweet wine for all countries in the world. ”

"The state of Chu, which has not changed the law, will be poisoned the most, and the rest of the countries will also inherit the poison of this thing."

"Even I, Daqin, am not immune!"

"With the appearance of the Chang'an plow, the annual income of my Great Qin Qianshou will also skyrocket, even if you don't go to the battlefield to fight, you can still have food and clothing."

"The system of military merit, the rate of taxation, and the art of governing the people all need to be revised accordingly."

"Otherwise, the country will be unstable!"

Throughout the world, the method of cultivation has evolved from the initial manual cultivation to the two-ox three-man style, which opened the prelude to the reform of the law in various countries.

At the end of the Western Han Dynasty, the two-ox and one-man farming method was born, and it didn't take long for Wang Mang to usurp the Han Dynasty.

At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the one-cow and one-man system began to be popularized, and then the Three Kingdoms were in turmoil.

In the troubled times, Quyuan plough came out, and it was during this period that the Sui and Tang dynasties completed the handover!

We can see that the emergence of every new way of farming is accompanied by an old system going to the grave, and even with the collapse of a dynasty!

This may be a coincidence.

But Ying Chengcheng prefers that this is the economic foundation in the sword slashing superstructure!

Superstructures can prevent the development of an economic base, as in the case of the Qing Dynasty, or in certain areas where two oxen and one man were still used for cultivation more than 2,000 years later.

But once the economic base has completed its independent development, and the superstructure has not been able to change with it, then the dynasty will be abandoned by the times!

As an important cornerstone of the economic foundation of the millennium, can the existing systems of today's countries be able to lower the Chang'an plow?

Can't stop it!

The state of Chu, which eats the ancients, will surely become the biggest victim of the Chang'an plow.

Even Daqin's system can't withstand the changes brought about by Chang'an plow!

The suddenness that had just sprung up in Meng Tian's eyes was once again replaced by shock and incomprehension: "This plough will have such a great impact on the world?" ”

"Since Chang'anjun thinks that this thing is a sweet wine floating in my Daqin, then why does Chang'anjun still take out the Chang'an plow!"

Ying Cheng smiled and looked at Ying Zheng: "Because the person sitting on the throne is Brother Wang!" ”

"How to formulate a set of systems that are applicable to the future world is the responsibility of Brother Wang and your colleagues."

"This monarch is just a small Zongzheng Cheng and a military academy order, at most he is just a few more expeditions for Great Qin, why should this monarch bother about such a major event of the country?"

"This monarch believes in the wisdom of Brother Wang!"

The former Ying Cheng Chan couldn't think about it, and he didn't want to bring any uncertain changes to this world.

But now, Ying Chengcheng wants to open.

If the existing system of Great Qin can't withstand the changes brought about by Ying Chengcheng, then change the law!

Lu Buwei is still alive, Han Fei is still alive, and Yingzheng can live for a few more decades.

There are Han Fei in preparation, Lu Buwei in Anmin, and Yingzheng at the helm.

In terms of changing the law, who is more skilled than Daqin?

Play the law, who has played these three today!

With these three bigwigs sitting in Daqin, what are you afraid of!

When Cheese went to school, the history textbook said that Quyuan plough appeared in the late Tang Dynasty, and the evidence for this statement came from the late Tang Dynasty Tortoise Meng's "The Book of Lei", which was also recognized by scholars such as Director Hu Zexue and Professor Wang Xingguang. But in the tomb of Li Shou in Sanyuan, Shaanxi Province, a mural painted with Qu Yuan plough was unearthed, and after measurement, the mural was not a follow-up painting, but Li Shou Li Shentong was Li Yuan's cousin, who died in Zhenguan for four years! There is a considerable time lag with the late Tang Dynasty.

According to the mural, Cheese believes that Quyuan plough had been introduced to the north and began to be used on a small scale by the fourth year of Zhenguan at the latest, so Cheese has reason to support the view of many scholars such as Professor Yu Shenglong and Associate Professor Liu Xi that Quyuan plough appeared in the Sui Dynasty or earlier, rather than the late Tang Dynasty.

Emphasize: If there are book friends who are going to school, please forget this paragraph and use the textbook as the standard, the score is the most important!
