Chapter 418 The Importance of Education

When Zhang Juzheng said this, he was very sure, because he believed that no ruler was willing to say that he was in the same class as the common people. So that the emperor committed the same crime as the common people?
"What if I say there is a way?"

Ye Xiao's words were simply astonishing. As soon as he uttered these words, everyone in the audience was dumbfounded.

"I don't know what method the master said?"

Zhang Juzheng continued to ask.

"Since this is the case, let's think about a question together with me. What is the direct conflict between the big landlord class represented by the dynasty and the common people?"

"Naturally, it's the land. Those big landlords, big families, hold a lot of land, and the people need this land to live."

After Liu Bowen thought briefly, he gave the answer. After Ye Xiao heard Liu Bowen's answer, he nodded in satisfaction. This did not waste his usual conversation with Liu Bowen.

"Berwin is right about the matter of land. Now if I take back all the land in the world and distribute it to the people, what will happen?"

"If it is true what the Lord said, then there will be new landlords in this world, because there will always be people who will go bankrupt due to poor management, and finally these lands will be taken away by those who are good at management or opportunistic. There will be new big landowners."

Zhang Juzheng was dealing with internal affairs, he had been familiar with this kind of thing for many years, and soon he analyzed the pros and cons of it.

"You're right, that's why I want to completely control the land under the name of North Korea, and the people and families only have the right to use it. In this way, even if a new big landlord arises, I can make them calm down. It's gone to ashes."

When Ye Xiao said this, everyone was shocked immediately. They really didn't expect Ye Xiao's chess game to be so big. They are all knowledgeable people, so they naturally understand the meaning of Ye Xiao's words.

"But this alone is not enough, because if it is only like this, the people will always be farming, but our population will always be growing, just like today."

"Now the population of the area under my jurisdiction has reached a peak value. And because of the advanced agricultural tools and planting methods, we can temporarily support so many people, but I will not be able to support them in ten years. "

When Ye Xiao said this, everyone looked at Zhang Juzheng. As the head of the cabinet, Zhang Juzheng was in charge of the six ministries, and he knew the affairs of the six ministries most clearly. Clearly.

When Zhang Juzheng saw that everyone was looking at it, he nodded immediately. Seeing Zhang Juzheng nodding, everyone knew that Ye Xiao was not talking nonsense.

"Everyone has to understand that even if I unify the world, the world will fall into turmoil again with this population growth rate for at most 200 years, so how to avoid it?"

"The way I think of is to mobilize the people of the world, let them get rid of the thinking of scholars, farmers, businessmen, persuade them to use their creativity, develop better and more powerful planting methods to increase food production, and let them actively open up The outside world, let them change their minds that their homeland is hard to move."

Ye Xiao said that the more he talked, the more excited he was, and the people who listened to him kept nodding their heads. They had the most contact with Ye Xiao. From Ye Xiao's mouth, they understood that there was a vast world beyond this big man.

Ye Xiao even told them that if you walk eastward along the East China Sea, you will find a continent. On this continent, Ye Xiao told them that there are survivors from the ancient Yin and Shang Dynasties.

When everyone heard Ye Xiao say this, they were not surprised, because according to the description of Shan Hai Jing, there is indeed a continent east of the Han Dynasty, but everyone regards Shan Hai Jing as a myth.

Seeing everyone nodding, Ye Xiao continued.

"I want to change their thinking. The only way to start is education. Nowadays, education is in the hands of aristocratic families. It can even be said that studying means that you have status. It is basically impossible for Qianshou to get ahead."

"However, the heads of Guizhou account for more than [-]% of the world. It is these heads of Guizhou that have promoted the development of history. At the time of the Yellow Turban Uprising, if there were no these heads of Guizhou attached to Zhang Jiao, how could it be possible to change the situation that the big man stirred up? Moreover, we should start from the golden period. Thinking about it, why did these heads of Guizhou follow them?"

"One is because they don't have enough to eat, and the second is the most important point. They don't have the concept of family, country and world in their minds. These leaders only want to have enough food. He doesn't care about the fact that the superior, as long as the superior It can cure their diseases and feed them well.”

Ye Xiao said, the more he said this, the more excited he became, and the more people in the audience listened, the more shocked he became. No emperor or thinker in the past and present dared to say such a thing.

And Ye Xiao's words also made the Confucian scholars present, especially the Confucian school represented by Liu Bowen, very excited, because they heard from Ye Xiao's words that Mencius thought that the people are the most important and the king is the least.

"So now what I want to do is to let the people of the world understand that they are proud of being Han people, let them understand that the Han land is sacred and inviolable, and let them understand that there is a wider world after people have enough to eat, not just Confined to the feet, now everyone can understand what I mean by setting up a bookstore."

After Ye Xiao finished speaking, everyone in the audience remained silent for a long time. Only now did they understand the gap between them and Ye Xiao, that is the gap between heaven and earth, that is the gap between fireflies and the vast stars.

They didn't understand why Ye Xiao did this before. Some of them even thought that Ye Xiao did it because of his self-consciousness of destroying the Great Wall. Ye Xiao shouted.

"May your lord be willing to die!"

Looking at the people kneeling there, Ye Xiao couldn't help but rubbed his head. He told these people countless times that they don't need to kneel down, but these people will still kneel down when encountering big things. He also wants to know how to change this habit. There is a long way to go.

"Okay, speed up the construction of the academy, and don't kneel down again in the future, the man has gold under his knees."

When everyone heard what Ye Xiao said, they agreed perfunctorily. Looking at the expressions of these people, Ye Xiao knew that he had said another nonsense.

And just when Ye Xiao finished discussing the matter, Pang De and Wang Ping also entered the territory of Yuzhou smoothly.

"Is this Yuzhou City? Young Master, I originally thought that Chang'an was already the largest city in the world, but I didn't expect that Yuzhou is even better built than Chang'an."

"This is where General Ye started his family, and it is now General Ye's political and economic center. Naturally, it should be better built. Okay, let's find a place to live in this Yuzhou for a while, and find out how we can meet General Ye. "

After talking, Pang De and Wang Ping wanted to find an inn, but every few steps, several people in brocade clothes appeared and stopped them.

"My two masters are here to invite you."
