New Shun 1730

After the prince introduced the rice ban in Hubei, he retreated, which is normal.

As for the practical school of Dashun, Liu Yu was sure that some of them would not retreat.

The reason why the prince retreated was that he wanted political achievements, but he did not have a holistic "Tao" or a holistic "scripture" in his mind.

And the reason why Liu Yu believed that the practical school of Dashun would not retreat...

How to say it, believing in the Bible is also called firm faith; believing in the words of saints can also be called firm faith.

As for Lao Ma's theory, Liu Yu either practiced it in reverse or only said half of it.

In Dashun, a crooked scripture that could not be crooked anymore was derived.

In this case, a complete set of "scriptures" requires the three basic elements of "discovering problems", "solving problems" and "looking forward to the future".

Whether it is the Bible, the Six Classics, the Quran, or other economics, it is almost the same.

Without the four words "looking forward to the future", this scripture is definitely incomplete as a scripture.

As mentioned before, whether it is Liu Yu's two legs of per capita food or the theory of industry and commerce that can accommodate more people, these can be considered the future, but not the "ultimate future".

In the Bible, there is the Last Judgment and the birth of the Kingdom of Heaven.

In the Six Classics, there is self-discipline and restoration of rituals, and the great way is already practiced.

These are considered the "ultimate future" and can eventually be molded into a complete set of "classics".

It has a head, a tail, and a body.

In the context of the Dashun era, Liu Yu's theory of Lao Ma is basically either reversed or only said half of the words, and it is naturally impossible to draw an original conclusion.

However, in the context of the Dashun era, Liu Yu's set of things has a system, and it is a system that includes the ultimate future.

It's just...

This whole set of cutting and reverse practice can be described as a hodgepodge of "reactionary, vulgar, and utopian" economics.

It's not an exaggeration to call it a big poisonous weed.

Reaction is the status quo.

Vulgarity is the goal.

Utopia is the ultimate future.

These three elements are so complete that they form their own system. Under the productivity, economic foundation, and historical tradition of the time, a whole set of new knowledge has been formed, becoming the "classic" of the practical school.

Reaction refers to what Liu Yu had previously satirized, saying that Dashun is now engaged in "Malthusian economics".

Vulgarity refers to the Dashun practical school's understanding of the goals of "industrial and commercial development", "industrialization", and "productivity", which is "List economics".

Utopianism refers to the goal of "ultimate future". In view of its historical tradition, small peasant fantasy, etc., Dashun's goal is "Saint-Simonism".

Therefore, the set of things that Dashun's practical school learned, which was cut, taken out of context, reversed, and only said half by Liu Yu, became a standard "reactionary, vulgar, and utopian" three-in-one poisonous weed after forming its own system.

And what Liu Yu said was that in the dead end he set for Dashun, there was a theoretical way out of the situation for the most cunning and capable feudal ruler, which was contained in this trinity of poisonous weeds.

In simple terms, it is an enhanced version of Napoleon III and a conservative version of Kita Ikki.

The reactionary status quo is Malthusian economics.

It refers to the policy of "dividing politics between the inside and the outside" of Dashun. In fact, there has been overproduction in the advanced areas of Dashun.

This overproduction is not the overproduction of "still overproduction after the full development of the domestic unified market".

Those who support the continued development of industry and commerce in Dashun include landlords, nobles, royal families, usurers, and complete rentiers.

They support the development of industry and commerce.

But at the same time, they must keep their butts and prove that their existence is valuable.

So, based on the special overproduction that has appeared in Dashun at this time, they took out the set of things that Liu Yu used to fool Japan, which can be regarded as Liu Yu shooting himself in the foot.

Simply put: in this reactionary economic model, rentiers, landlords, nobles, etc., who only consume and do not work; only collect rent and do not produce, are the cornerstones of social stability.

They are the real "effective demanders".

If there were no such people who only consume but do not produce, who only collect rent but do not work, wouldn't there be an "effective demand crisis" of overproduction?

These landlords, nobles, royal families, rentiers, etc. who support the development of industry and commerce are considered "comrades" in the early development of Dashun's industry and commerce.

They have fought against the pure conservatives who opposed the development of industry and commerce, and have also supported Dashun's reforms.

But when Dashun's industry and commerce gradually started to develop, they naturally found a theory that was beneficial to them and promoted it.

They even applied this reactionary economics to the current situation of Dashun's foreign trade.

After explaining the current situation, they drew a crude equal sign between the demand for overseas trade and domestic landlords, rentiers, nobles, military sticks, students, etc. who "only consume but do not produce".

These people are collectively called "effective demanders".

After all, Dashun's handicraft industry is a bit strange, and it has achieved an astonishing trade surplus in this handicraft era.

Since the middle of the Ming Dynasty, it has been a Pixiu, eating but not defecating.

As for silver, it was a commodity in the early days and is now a currency, which inevitably creates an illusion: currency is not a commodity.

Since this illusion exists and silver is just abstract money, then can we say that Dashun's foreign trade is also looking for "effective demanders" to solve Dashun's overproduction crisis?

Foreign trade is the pillar of Dashun's current reform and the cornerstone of Dashun's transformation of tax treasury.

In this case, foreign trade is looking for "effective demanders".

Then, aren't domestic landlords, rentiers, lenders, royal family, military officers, students, etc. "effective demanders" who only consume but do not produce?

Without those who only buy but cannot sell in overseas trade; without domestic landlords, rentiers, royal family, military officers, etc. who only consume but do not produce, how can Dashun's industry and commerce develop?

How to develop industry and commerce without "effective demand"?

Here, it is not just the former fellow travelers and the current reactionaries who think so.

In fact, some people in the Dashun School of Realism have similar ideas.

It's just that they expanded the so-called "effective demand" to the concept of "equal distribution of land".

Some radicals in the Dashun School of Realism - of course not all, but now that Dashun is facing a change that has not happened for a thousand years, so that various thoughts are flourishing - some radicals in the School of Realism also build an ideal society based on the self-cultivating peasant economy after the equalization of land.

That is, according to the thousand-year dream, social reality, and traditional demands of Dashun, the "effective demanders" are expanded from landlords, rentiers, military officers, etc. to the larger number of self-cultivating farmers after the equalization of land in the future.

The basis of this trend of thought, subconsciously, is still the separation of "agriculture, industry, and commerce".

That is, through the equalization of land, the number of self-cultivating farmers is expanded. And self-cultivating farmers are only farmers, not industrial and commercial.

Therefore, self-cultivating farmers can be "effective demanders" for "industrial and commercial production".

Self-cultivating farmers buy ironware, cloth, sugar, wine, etc., because the "effective demand" of 10,000 taels of silver spent by one person and 100 people is different.

Therefore, the "equal distribution of land" demand of this part of radicals, at least under the current situation, is also based on this reactionary economics, and is the conclusion drawn from Malthus's "effective demand" theory.

This is the "reactionary" economics in the trinity of reaction, vulgarity and fantasy, which is reflected in the current situation of Dashun.

The ideological source of this social consciousness comes from Liu Yu's extreme use of Marx's theory, only saying "how capitalism came about", avoiding its internal contradictions, or thinking that Dashun is not qualified to talk about the internal contradictions of capitalism.

Its social foundation comes from the fact that Dashun's industrial and commercial development, reform, foreign trade, and development of industry and commerce, etc., did not rely on the bourgeoisie itself. On the contrary, it relied on the support of Dashun's imperial power, nobles, and some landlords, and developed in a way similar to the Westernization Movement.

These people, sitting there, will naturally look for what is in their interests; proving that they are not only not a burden in the new era, but an indispensable part.

Thus, the first foundation of Liu Yu's so-called "this whole set of perverted scriptures", reactionary economics, was laid.

The second foundation of "this whole set of perverse teachings" is List's economics.

According to a certain definition, it can be regarded as a kind of "vulgar economics" with a proper noun.

Here, we will not talk about the superficial things such as "tariff protection for the poor and free trade for the rich" in List's economics.

Let's only talk about the "industrialization" problem in List's economics.

That is, what exactly is industrialization, the goal of the Dashun School. And the thought that drives the Dashun School to believe that industry and commerce must be developed and industrialization must be achieved is the cornerstone of the Dashun School's "vulgar" "industrial party" - the productivity problem.

List's economics talks about productivity.

Not only talk about it, but also talk about it a lot and talk about it in particular.

However, the "productivity" of List's economics is not the "productivity" in Lao Marx's theory.

On the contrary, the productivity in List's economics is more like a hodgepodge of things like "economic base" + "superstructure" + "historical tradition" + "institution" + "nationality".

For example, List believed that the development of productivity was [the abolition of monogamy, slavery and feudal territory, the stability of the succession to the throne, printing, newspapers, postal services, currency, measurement, calendar, clocks, police, etc., the invention of systems, the implementation of the principle of free ownership of real estate, the adoption of means of transportation... the people and officials have gained a certain degree of spiritual power, freedom, local autonomy], etc., all of which are the development of productivity.

He mixed these things together and abstracted them into the elements of "productive forces".

It is easy to draw a conclusion: how to guarantee these things?

So, it is inferred that this requires something.

This thing is a collection of groups with powerful power to protect and promote the development of this hodgepodge of abstract "productive forces", to ensure safety, to ensure that the system is conducive to the development of productivity, or as a tool to achieve the development of productivity he defined as "all-encompassing, from systems to laws and regulations to nationality to traditions".

This thing is a tool to protect "policy creeds that are conducive to the development of productivity".

In other words, an entity is needed to implement these policy creeds.

What is this thing?

What can better serve as this tool?

What the hell, can it be so powerful at this time?

Naturally, it is very easy to draw a conclusion at this time.

Country.
