Chapter 488 Volume 5 Domineering Li Shimin!

Everyone was immediately speechless.

What Jun Yichen said makes perfect sense!

You still need to be strong in order to make iron. There is nothing wrong with that. There is nothing wrong with that!

But the question is, how can industrial transformation be as simple as it sounds?

It is not an exaggeration to say that one word can affect the whole body.

"Your Majesty, the industrial reform has indeed reached a necessary moment, but it must not be rushed." Fang Xuanling said, "Based on the current national conditions of the Tang Dynasty, it is indeed impossible.

Of course, we can try it on a small scale, but only on a small scale."

He knew that he could no longer stop Li Er, so he settled for the next best thing and prepared to narrow the scope.

Li Er sneered: "What kind of situation is the Ming Dynasty? Could it be said that the national conditions of the Ming Dynasty are better than those of the Tang Dynasty?"

"The boat is so small that it can be turned around, Your Majesty." Fang Xuanling said quickly, "The population of the whole country of the Ming Dynasty is only that of one state and one prefecture of the Tang Dynasty, how can they be compared to each other?

Besides, Your Highness is not afraid of failure!"

When he said this, Li Er was stunned.

This is so vicious!

It's almost like saying that Li Chengqian didn't regard the people of Ming Dynasty as human beings, they were just experimental subjects!

But was he wrong?

Actually not, at least in their minds this is indeed the case.

Even Li Er thought so.

Li Chengqian's advantage is really too great.

If Ming Dynasty can be managed continuously, it will naturally be the best result, which will leave him a considerable political wealth in the future.

But what if the business fails?

That was just a lesson from failure. He also had experience in this area, which in the eyes of many people is excellent.

In other words, Li Chengqian has a way out, and this is his advantage.

To say the least, he is still the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty.

But I can't say this.

This time, Li Er didn't know what to say.

Indeed, he can understand.

"Gao Ming's fault tolerance rate is better than that of Datang." Li Er nodded and said, "But judging from the development over the past year, the path he chose may not be feasible."

"It won't work." Fang Xuanling said immediately, "How many people were there in the imperial court of the Ming Dynasty? How many people were there in the Tang Dynasty?

His Highness can vigorously develop industry because he can really raise enough food from various countries to feed the people of the entire Ming Dynasty. No matter what means His Highness uses, he still does it in the end.

But the Tang Dynasty is different, Your Majesty.

The population of the Tang Dynasty is more than ten times that of the Ming Dynasty. Where else in the world can the Tang Dynasty raise so much food?"

"Why does this have anything to do with food?" Li Er waved his hand and said, "If you look at the Ming Dynasty's industry, most of it is actually centered around people's livelihood.

Just like this Quyuanli incident, isn't it the people who will benefit in the end?

Therefore, when industry reaches a certain level, it will definitely not affect the development of agriculture, and may even become a boost to agriculture."

"That's not what they say." Fang Xuanling did not agree with Li Er's remarks, "When industry reaches the level of the Ming Dynasty, business will flourish, and everyone will see the benefits brought by industry.

At that time, if one can make a fortune by just speculating, how many people will still be able to farm with peace of mind?

People’s hearts are not ancient!”

After he finished speaking, the others nodded.

This is also what they are worried about.

If you can make a fortune by doing business or joining industry, then who will work hard to farm?

There are not many people, really not many people!

This is just like everyone knows that reading is a bridge to change your destiny, so there are more and more people reading in recent years.

Well, who doesn’t want to live a good life?

Since farming and studying are not good, what about doing business? What about joining industry?

As long as there are lessons learned from the past, this trend will inevitably sweep across the entire Tang Dynasty. It may not be noticeable for a few years, but as time goes by, the consequences will only become more and more serious.

This is reality!

"Your Majesty, think twice!" Dai Zhou also said at the right moment, "Although industry will bring changes to us in a short period of time, from a long-term perspective, this is not the case.

Moreover, if one is not as good as a craftsman after ten years of poverty, I am afraid that many scholars will take detours. It will also dampen the will of more scholars to study.

At that time, the culture and education we have finally revitalized may be completely overturned in an instant."

Having said this, Dai Zhou breathed a long sigh of relief, as if he had really seen that scene.

Li Er also sighed when he heard this.

He actually knew these guys were exaggerating.

There are tens of millions of people in the world, how can there be a shortage of people to farm the land?

But he had to worry about this problem.

After all, this is an objective fact.

The human heart can never withstand temptation.

When a craftsman's income is greater than a farmer's annual income from farming, those people will indeed be tempted.

And this kind of temptation is undoubtedly very dangerous for the country.

The population of the Tang Dynasty was too large, and it was impossible to solve its own food and clothing problem by relying solely on food from various countries like the Ming Dynasty.

"Your Majesty, what does the Tang Dynasty want?" At this moment, Fang Xuanling said again, "What the Tang Dynasty wants is eternal! Even if the industrial reform can shine under your majesty's wise leadership, it will not last for a hundred years. What about in a year? What about in a thousand years?

Can't take this risk..."

These guys are all extremely smart people of this era. They never talk about class, they just magnify the problem infinitely. Just like that, they left Li Er speechless.

But how can Li Er be someone who gives up so easily?

He knew the essence of the problem, and he immediately said: "I know what the ministers have said. But when a problem occurs, there must be a solution.

In other words, I ask the most inappropriate question, if Ming Dynasty and Datang Dynasty break up at this time, and Ming Dynasty blocks all technologies from Datang Dynasty, what should Datang Dynasty do?"

Damn...

this……

Everyone was stunned, Li Er really dared to say it!

Does this mean that Li Chengqian is going to rebel?

But only Li Er dared to say this. Anyone else who dared to say this might die without knowing how.

"Are you speechless?" Li Er sneered, "How did I get the throne? You all know best!

Do you think I don’t know that some people are criticizing me for forcing my father to kill my brother?

I know!

I even know whose mouth these words came from!

But so what?

I dare to admit it if I do it!

Because I never care what others think of me.

If we hadn't taken action first, today, the person who forced my father to kill his brother would be Li Jiancheng!"

Everyone was speechless.

Li Er is really crazy today.

They really dare to say anything, but there are some things that Li Er can say, can they say it?

It couldn't be done, so at this time, the Liangyi Palace was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop!

But Li Er didn't care.

He really doesn't care.

Just as he said, he dared to admit what he did!
