Chapter 364 The economic foundation of Sword Name is dedicated to cutting down the superstructure!
Just by looking at Meng Tian's eyes, Ying Chengyu knew that there were definitely ten thousand grass mud horses running wildly hidden in Meng Tian's heart.
Ying Chengyu couldn't help but laugh and said: "Does Minister Meng think that by being very defensive, we can guard against thieves from other countries?"
"It's impossible to guard against them!"
"We, the Qin Dynasty, have many foreign visitors, and all these foreign visitors will not hesitate to send Chang'an plows to other countries in exchange for rewards!"
"Rather than expending manpower and effort to strictly guard against it, we should let it go and let other countries learn from it."
The Qin Dynasty used profits to lure talented people, and talented people would inevitably be abducted by other countries with heavier benefits.
Whether they are important ministers or local officials, most of them are used by the Qin Dynasty for their own ideals, beliefs or interests, but there are very few ministers who only serve the Qin Dynasty.
Changing countries is as easy as changing jobs for them, with no guilt in their hearts.
So as long as Da Qin uses Chang'an Plow, Chang'an Plow will definitely be leaked.
This is inevitable and cannot be stopped by any means.
Meng Tian shook his head repeatedly: "Then we can't just let it go!"
"Even if we can block it for a few more years, it will be a huge benefit to our Great Qin!"
Ying Chengyu patiently explained: "Zhao's trouble lies in water conservancy."
"Yan's trouble lies in the poor land."
"Qi has many hills and well-developed water conservancy. Chang'an's plow will definitely increase Qi's grain production."
"However, Qi's troubles lie in the cowardice of its monarchs and ministers, and in the way it governs the country."
"This means that even if the Qi State has abundant grain production, it can only become the granary of our Great Qin!"
"If our Great Qin had not destroyed Han and Wei, I would never take out the Chang'an Plow."< br>
"However, the old lands of Han and Wei and the fertile land north of Yingshui River have all been owned by our Great Qin. The construction of the Zhengguo Canal in Guanzhong has also been completed. The land available for farming in our Great Qin is wider than that of the three countries!" ”
"So I think that instead of using the Chang'an plow covertly, we should promote it in a big way and make our Daqin grain production skyrocket as soon as possible!"
"As for stealing technology from other countries? Just let them do it. ”
The plow is just one part of farming.
Water conservancy, terrain, climate, etc. will all affect the final harvest.
Yan, Zhao, and Qi will indeed be able to obtain more food and liberate more people after obtaining the Chang'an plow.
But Da Qin got even more benefits!
When there is no defense, why not fully push it away to maximize the benefits that Qin can get and further widen the gap in strength with the three countries of Yan, Zhao and Qi!
Meng Tian was not convinced by Ying Chengyu at all, but asked: "What about Chu State?"
"Chu State has a vast territory, but because there are many mountains, hills and wastelands, it is difficult to ”
“The Changan plow developed by Changan Jun is light and easy to turn, and can be pulled by a single oxen.”
"The benefits of this plow are all beneficial to the Chu State!"
"If the Chu State can obtain the Chang'an Plow, Chu State will be able to transform a large amount of wasteland into fertile land in just a few years."
>"This thing is even more beneficial to Chu than to Qin!"
Meng Tian didn't know that in another timeline, this Quyuan plow was also known as Jiangdong plow.
This object first appeared in the Jiangdong area, which is now the Ji County of Chu State and other places.
Can the farming equipment built by the descendants of Chu based on the terrain of Chu not be suitable for Chu?
Ying Chengyu asked back: "Chu State?"
"I put this plow in front of them, do they dare to take it!"
Meng Tian even suspected Ying Cheng It was a slip of the tongue, and even the tone of the question was a little more hesitant: "Why don't you dare to take it?"
"It's natural to take something that is so beneficial to the country!"
Ying Chengyu smiled and said: "I am also waiting for them to get it!"
Meng Tian has been completely fooled by Ying Chengyu.
I even seriously doubted whether Ying Chengxuan had reached any cooperation with the Chu State.
Otherwise, why would Ying Chengxuan hope that Chu would steal the Chang'an plow!
Facing Meng Tian's eyes filled with questions, Ying Chengyu said slowly: "Since the Wei Dynasty, all countries have implemented reforms."
"However, the results of the reforms vary."
"Our Qin Dynasty's reforms were the most thorough, completely eradicating the old aristocrats who enslaved children and servants in the country."
"Wei and Zhao Cizhi. "
"Yan, Han, and Qi came again"
"Wei Chu still followed the ancient system!"
Meng Tian frowned.
Meng Tian agreed with Ying Chengyu’s words.
Although Wei and Zhao still have many clans and nobles who can obtain titles and enjoy high positions without any military merit.
However, both Wei and Zhao put forward the guiding ideology of "eating, working, and getting paid", which almost eradicated the slave-owning class in the country, allowing the people of Wei and Zhao to fully release their power.
Although the three countries of Yan, Han, and Qi did not completely eradicate the domestic slave-owning class, they more or less suppressed the domestic slave-owning class and the old aristocratic class, and completed the reform to a certain extent. .
Only Chu State has repeatedly tried to reform the law, but has been blocked by the stubborn old aristocracy, and it still lives by the old system.
But, what does this have to do with Changan Li?
Ying Chengxuan continued: "The reforms in various countries are more or less compromises that have to be made because of the endless rebellion of domestic child servants."
"The child servants of Chu State rebelled quite early. , and the number of rebellions is the highest. "
"Why can the Chu State maintain the old system despite the overwhelming resentment of the child servants, so that the child servants have to continue to be driven by the powerful? "
Meng Tian thought about it and replied: "Because the Chu State will appease the child servants who took the lead in the rebellion." "First buy the thief leader with a lot of money, so that the thief leader can also control the child servants like a powerful person."
"If the leader of the thieves refuses to obey, then bribe the thieves to obey and make the thieves make noise or kill the leader of the thieves."
"This strategy will always have disadvantages!"
As for using force to suppress?
Forget it.
Meng Tian felt ashamed of Chu!
It was not just once or twice that the regular army of Chu State was defeated by the child servant rebel army.
Ying Chengqiao nodded slightly: "What Shilang Meng said is indeed a good strategy for treating child servants."
"But in my opinion, the Chu State's strategy for dealing with child servants who are in trouble is just This technique has been used by all countries.”
"The reason why the Chu State's child servants have not been able to force the Chu State to complete the reform is because of the Chu State's unique geography and landforms!"
"The Chu State has mountains and hills, lush vegetation, and numerous wild animals, making it extremely difficult to cultivate."
“Even after reclamation, it is difficult to bring plows into many acres of land, and they can only be cultivated by manpower, so that the grain yield is thin.”
“After the boy servants successfully rebelled, they could not enter the fields. After fighting against the Chu army for a long time, he could not survive in the mountains and forests."
"In order to survive, the boy servant had to kneel at the feet of the powerful again and let him be driven by the powerful."
Ying Chengxuan looked at Chang'an Li and smiled: "When Chang'an Li was introduced to Chu State, everything would be different!"
As Ying Chengxuan told it, Meng Tian finally understood.
Why do countries change their laws?
A very important reason is that child servants in various countries have the ability to be self-reliant, and they can reject the oppression and exploitation from the powerful.
Why has Chu State been unable to reform its laws?
A very important reason is that the child servants of Chu State could not survive for a long time after leaving the powerful. They were unable to refuse oppression and exploitation!
But now, Ying Chengyu has given the child servants of Chu the most advantageous weapon.
Not a sword, not an armor, not a heavy crossbow.
But Changan Plow!
With this plow, the child servants of Chu State can escape into the mountains after the victory of the uprising, find a small valley that is difficult for the Chu army to enter, and quickly complete the reclamation and sowing, forming a small self-sufficient society!
Meng Tian was shocked and said: "So Chang'an Jun paid great attention to lightness and steering when designing the Chang'an plow, and designed the Chang'an plow to be very suitable for the Chu land?"
"The Chang'an plow is sweet honey to all countries. "
"But to Chu State, it is just poisonous wine with sweet honey!"
Ying Chengyu shook his head again: "This Chang'an plow is to all countries in the world! They are all poisonous wine with sweet honey.”
“The country of Chu, which has not yet reformed, will be the most poisoned, and the remaining countries will also inherit the poison.”
"Even our Great Qin will not be immune!"
"With the emergence of the Chang'an plow, our Great Qin's annual harvest in Guizhou will also skyrocket. Even if we don't go to the battlefield to fight, we can still have food and clothing."
" The military merit system, the tax rates, and the methods of governing the people all need to be revised accordingly."
"Otherwise, the country will be unstable!"
Looking at this world, the people who cultivate it are all in need. The method evolved from the initial manual farming to the two-oxen-three-husband style, which kicked off the reform in various countries.
At the end of the Western Han Dynasty, the two-oxen-one-man farming method was born. Soon, Wang Mang usurped the Han Dynasty.
At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the system of one cow and one husband began to become popular, and then came the troubled times of the Three Kingdoms.
In the midst of troubled times, Quyuanli came into being. It was during this period that the handover between the Sui and Tang Dynasties was completed!
We can find that the emergence of every new farming method is accompanied by the death of an old system, or even the collapse of a dynasty!
This may be a coincidence.
But Ying Chengyu is more inclined to think that this is the economic foundation and the superstructure is cut with swords!
The superstructure can prevent the independent development of the economic base, just like the Qing Dynasty, or some areas where two oxen and one husband were still used for farming more than two thousand years later.
But once the economic base has completed independent development, but the superstructure is still unable to change accordingly, then this dynasty will be abandoned by the times!
As an important cornerstone to support the economic foundation of the millennium, can the current systems of various countries survive the Chang'an plow?
I can’t keep it down!
The Chu State, which has not changed its past, will surely become the biggest victim of Chang'an Li.
Even the system of Great Qin could not withstand the changes brought about by the Chang'an Plow!
The sudden realization that just emerged in Meng Tian’s eyes was once again replaced by shock and incomprehension: “How can this plow have such a great impact on the world?”
“Since Chang’an You think this thing is poisonous wine with sweet honey to me, Great Qin, so why did Chang'an Lord take out the Chang'an plow!"
Ying Chengqiao smiled and looked at Ying Zheng: "Because I'm sitting here. The person above the throne is Brother Wang!”
"How to formulate a system suitable for the future world is the responsibility of Brother Wang and all my colleagues."
"I am just a small Zong Zhengcheng and a military academy commander. At most, I am no more. I have gone on many expeditions for the Qin Dynasty, why should I worry about such important matters?”
“I believe in Brother Wang’s wisdom!” Fang Tianxia brings about any uncertain changes.
But now, Ying Chengyu thinks about it.
If Da Qin's existing system cannot withstand the changes brought about by Ying Chengyu, then reform!
Lu Buwei is still alive, Han Fei is still alive, and Ying Zheng can live for decades more.
Han Fei is there to prepare for war, Lu Buwei is there to pacify the people, and Ying Zheng is at the helm.
When it comes to reform, who is more skilled than Da Qin?
Playing with reform, who can play better than these three people today!
With these three big men in charge of Da Qin, what should Ying Chengxuan be afraid of!
When Chishi was in school, the history textbook said that Quyuanli appeared in the late Tang Dynasty. The evidence for this statement came from Lu Guimeng’s "Raishi Jing" in the late Tang Dynasty, and was also obtained by Director Hu Zexue and Professor Wang Xingguang. Waiting for the recognition of scholars. However, a mural depicting Qu Yuanli was unearthed from the tomb of Li Shou in Sanyuan, Shaanxi Province. After determination, the mural was not a subsequent addition, but Li Shou and Li Shentong were Li Yuan's cousins, who died in the fourth year of Zhenguan! There is a long time difference with the late Tang Dynasty.
According to the mural, Cheese believes that the Quyuan plow had been introduced to the north and started to be used on a small scale in the fourth year of Zhenguan at the latest. Therefore, Cheese has reason to support many scholars such as Professor Yu Shenglong and Associate Professor Liu Xi. According to this view, Quyuan Li appeared in the Sui Dynasty or earlier, rather than in the late Tang Dynasty.
