Chapter 289 (2)
Hongdan also read the report submitted by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, which wrote about the preparations for Hongzao's marriage. The house was arranged in Ganxitou, and it was being renovated, and Fujin's dresses, cars, etc. were also intensified.Everyone didn't say anything, but stepped up their actions in order to let the emperor see his son marrying a wife as soon as possible.Qin Tianjian also came to join in the fun and reported the auspicious day from the divination.

The rest are trivial matters, and there is a letter from Guangzhou, which is sent by Orondai.Lao E's life is not bad, leaving the capital, the pressure on him is much less, and he mixed with the local bully leader Nian Gengyao, and his life is quite nourishing.

When a hooligan meets a bully, the bully still has the upper hand. Hongdan thought of this sentence inexplicably. Judging by the methods of Nian Gengyao this year, it is really a hundred times worse than that of Erlundai who just blindly fights.Elundai's money became more abundant again, and the filial piety sent to the East Palace became more and more generous.In the letter I wrote, the tone became more and more cordial.

After reading what he wrote, Hongdan thought deeply.Unilaterally suspended the trade with the Netherlands, but could not stop the smuggling, but wasted the tax money, is not it, a move to lift the ban?

Putting the letter away, Hongdan got up and straightened his clothes, remembering that not long ago, when he went to talk to Shujia, he also relieved his mother.

"Are you here? Are you all busy?"

"Yes, my son looked at Ama again when he was passing by just now. He read the book for a while and fell asleep again."

"Well."

Hongdan said slowly: "Seeing that Ama is asleep, I didn't dare to disturb the old man. I have something to do. I will go back to him when Ama wakes up later." Then he talked about the government.

Shujia heard a little distracted, Hongdan sighed secretly: "Crossing the river by feeling the stones, there are many difficulties, not all ideas are feasible, or it is feasible here but not there..." By saying Today's work, going around in circles to comfort Shujia.

Shujia laughed: "You think I'm in a bad mood, is it because of this?"

"Gah?"

"There must be changes right now. Not just the tax code, but these...people!"

"A group of nerds, now that I have felt their pulse, there are plenty of ways to deal with them."

Shujia shook her head and said, "It's not just about nerds, I just want to find a way out."

"In a prosperous age, you will never add gifts. That is to say, if you have another child in the future, just add a spoonful of water when cooking. Tell me, will they have children?! At that time, how many people will there be in the world? , They always talk about Dingkou and the number of households, but they don’t know that it is easy to have children, but it is difficult to raise them! When I was young, I just added a spoonful of water, but when I grow up? What should I do? I want to marry a wife and have children, and I need a house Where do these come from? The extra births will gradually become redundant.

"Also, the family has [-] acres of land, and two sons are born, and each person is divided into five acres, and they can still live. If he has two more children, he will be half-starved and half-fed! After two generations like this, Originally, a well-to-do family would have to be poor. How much wasteland can be developed into good fields in the world? After it has been developed, it will not be used for a long time. There will be mergers. The people will become beggars. broke through!"

What she said made Hongdan suddenly change color, but after thinking about it carefully, what she said was indeed reasonable.Of course, she still vaguely remembers some history textbooks, combined with the actual situation she saw, it is certainly not alarmist.Chinese people have always paid attention to many children and many blessings. At this time, there is no concept of family planning at all.The country is vast and abundant, where the water and soil do not support people?The ruler also hopes that the larger the population, the more people who work and pay taxes, the better.

Hongdan even tugged at the corner of his mouth abruptly: "Er Niang is a little alarmist, it may not be that far."

Shujia smiled wryly. Historically, Yongzheng's New Deal was only a flashback for this dynasty and the feudal society of China as a whole.After this review, the country did not think about making progress, and was intoxicated. It didn't take long for the population to expand and the national strength to decline.

According to Shujia's estimate, the current new deal is not too far from the new deal in history due to objective conditions and King Yong's great efforts.If you don't continue to think of a way out, you will still die.At that time, she could already foresee that the White Lotus Sect, which has aimed to overthrow the current government since its birth, would reappear like a ghost!
She didn't think about the future generations, but she didn't want her children and grandchildren to be violently revolutionized.The worse ones are like Louis XVI being beheaded, and the better ones are like Pu Yi, who was imprisoned for war criminals.She would rather decentralize power and find a middle way, or, like the Meiji Restoration, at least a constitutional monarchy can be established.No matter how bad it is, as long as your children and grandchildren are not so rigid and everyone is in harmony, it is not bad to be an ordinary person.

But facing such a behemoth as the empire, she simply couldn't do anything about it.She knows her own shortcomings. Gender is an inherent disadvantage. Only by influencing her husband and son can she open the gap.Fortunately, her husband and son are the emperor and prince.She had no choice but to fight.

And these words, she really didn't dare to tell Yinfeng, she could only tell her son.At least, even if Hongdan felt that what she said was too sensational, it would not have any adverse effect on her.

Her expression was terrifying: "I'm talking about the gentry, even if their homes are all confiscated, can they support the extra population? You can't force people to have children, so you will rebel! This is yours." matter."

Finally, he firmly said: "Overpopulation!" This problem is not prominent now, but it will be a big problem when Hongdan's generation takes the lead.Probably by growing sweet potatoes and corn?The population explosion in the later generations, but still able to ensure the food and clothing of most people, is also benefited from the development of science and technology.Right now, it is impossible to count on this, only expansion.

She flew low on political economy, remembering only basic common sense.Today, it is impossible to build a strong country by relying on agriculture alone.The added value of agriculture is the lowest. To develop the economy, industry and commerce must be developed.But how to develop and what kind of plan to make, she has no idea at all, and she can only make changes on the basis of other people's plans.However, at least industry and commerce can solve the surplus labor force.

Hongdan was dumbfounded. He had already figured it out in the first half. The population problem might not be a big problem in the era of his father's rule. After two or thirty years, it will be his turn, and the trouble will be big.He looked at the year-end summary, and this year alone, there are already 30 people who have never added taxes!20 this year, 20 next year, and 20 the year after...

Hongdan started an infinite loop playback in his head, his face turned pale.He also thought that a large population was a sign of a prosperous age, and the more the better, he didn't want the population to decrease, which meant that the world was not good.Thinking about where these people are going to find a suitable arable land to support themselves, they are very uneasy.

And the second half is really incredible!In the eyes of people at that time, China was the best place in the world, with abundant products, while other places were barbaric lands, unsuitable for human habitation.expansion?There has to be value there.Hongdan also wanted to make contributions, but after looking at his wallet, he still resisted this desire to not do business at a loss.

Hearing about the development of industry and commerce, he wanted to jump! "Agriculture is the foundation of a country..." He began to narrate many famous passages in history to prove that the existence of commerce will make farmers feel uneasy, reduce food production, and shake the foundation of the country.

Shujia wants to vomit blood! "Can you think of another way to house so many people? Kill them? Eat them?"

Hongdan originally thought that the task at hand was difficult enough, although he had slowly entered the state, he didn't want to get hit again, he stammered and asked, "Have you mentioned it to Khan Ama?"

"I can only tell you that you can start thinking about what to do next."

Hong Dan is silent.

Shujia is also silent.Zhang Cheng was sent by Louis XIV. Louis XIV himself was a person who promoted mercantilism, and the transformation of Europe had already begun.The colony of the Dutch circle has come to Asia, and the New World has also been discovered. Countless gold and silver have been transported to Europe to support the development there.If you don't do it, it will be too late.Shujia really wanted to persuade everyone to go to America for development.

The compulsory education she mentioned was a foreshadowing on the basis of persuading Yinfeng and Hongdan.

Rare things are valuable, and when there are many scholars, they are worthless.

It is also an examination of civil servants, but it is not the current examination method.Turn the township examinations, general examinations, etc. into high school entrance examinations and college entrance examinations. Passing the examinations only means that you have studied well and you have a degree.But you may not be able to be an official. If you want to be an official, you have to take the exam alone.Someone is missing in a certain department, a quota is drawn up, and everyone signs up.Educational qualifications, grassroots work experience, and political affiliation can be required...

Fame becomes nothing more than a diploma.

Of course, the basis for the implementation of this plan must be the popularization of education.

What will happen to so many educated and cultured people?Whether it is business or industry, there is a good knowledge base.Surplus labor has to find a way out, literate jobs are more productive.

The development of European capitalism cannot be attributed to primitive accumulation and the expansion of the market.The only example Shujia can think of is Europe. Thankfully, she memorized this textbook for the college entrance examination, and she still remembers it now.

With the improvement of the quality of the Chinese people, coupled with the gold and silver from America, there is hope for development.It's just that the market problem has yet to be resolved, which is the most important part. She couldn't find a suitable market, and when she found it, she didn't know how to convince everyone.

When the mother and son were relatively silent, a person in a distant place was getting angry and pulling up his sleeves.

Nian Gengyao has always had a scholarly side. If he is not of my race, his heart must be different. The heavens rule the country, look down on others, and those who provoke me will be punished!Wait, wait, let's not say that he has integrated into his flesh and blood, and he came as soon as he opened his mouth, without reminding.

In [-], the governor was able to get along like a fish in water in Guangdong and Guangxi, and his tough implementation of the New Deal has achieved good results, and has been affirmed and praised by his superiors.My own purse is also much fuller. Compared with collecting fire consumption, the smuggling trade is obviously less dangerous, and it is not easy to cause impeachment.

I live a happy life, and I will work for a few more years as the governor of these two provinces. When the new deal is stabilized, I will transfer to a better place to hang out. If I do well, I may be able to become the governor of Zhili. The seat of the first governor in the world.Now he has a central official title on him, although it is only a false title, if he does a good job as the governor of Zhili, he may become a bachelor by "joining the cabinet and paying homage" like Li Guangdi.And he was much younger than Li Guangdi back then!

Life is going so smoothly, and a little unsatisfactory is like the only black sesame on the pancake, which is particularly eye-catching. When he heard that the Dutch "abducted" the people from his territory, his old man was outraged!

Unlike Shujia who was working behind closed doors and dreaming in his head, Nanyang has come into the sight of the officials of this dynasty because of the failure to develop the Americas.Although Governor-General Nian is still suppressing his bully habits with a trace of gentleness, but soon.
