Chapter 120: No way? At the end of the month
This is also the reason why Ma Qiang asked Zixu to take Xu Shu to see Youzhou from Chang'an. If he didn't build this foundation, he was really afraid that he would collapse when chatting with Xu Shu.
After the conversation broke down, Xu Shu was in trouble. Later, the plan to catch all the young talents in Lumen Academy was affected, and that was a big deal.
The talents of the prefectures and counties there can be calculated as a call, and there are talents from a country like Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong.
"What the General said is reasonable, so Emperor Wu used Zhang Tang in the past and moved the rebel leader to Guangwu, but there was no powerful force in the place, so what if it did?
Is the general clearing the fields and dividing the land and taking the imperial examinations to eliminate the wealthy families in the world?
Those who take the world as their enemies will die in the second lifetime like the Emperor of Qin!”
Yes, all dynasties have known that powerful people are not good things, but without a place, the local area will inevitably be unstable. Does Ma Qiang have a way to solve it?
Even if your troops are the best in the world and no one can beat you, you will always die of old age, right?
Then, not everyone who should come back will come back.
If there is no better way and better means to govern the world, don’t be fooled. It’s better to follow the old path. At least it will make the world peaceful for another two hundred years, right?
"Haha, the people are at ease. If someone hadn't interfered with it, how could the people have caused trouble?
In fact, it is also unfair to say that all the powerful families are bad people. Many of these people are gentlemen, and some even die safely for the sake of justice in the world. They can be called the backbone of our great man.
But the existence of powerful families naturally exploited the interests of the people of Guizhou, which will not change because of personal morality.”
Xu Shu couldn't understand it anymore, and he asked in confusion, "How can the general explain this?"
Ma Qiang smiled and said, "Personal good or bad is a matter of morality. In recent years, the Han Dynasty's court has been incompetent. Many local tyrants built roads and bridges were made by local tyrants. I can even say that some tyrants are good people, good people, and great tyrants who can't even stand trampling to death!
But is there any causal relationship between having good people among the powerful and powerful people beneficial to the world?
I can assert that--no!
As a class, a class is a collective that is different in social status or production relations, and can naturally occupy another collective's labor income, such as landlords and tenants, such as courts and people."
Ma Qiang explained a little and continued, "How did the powerful class maintain its existence?
First, monopolize government positions, and filial integrity and honest people can be recognized by the powerful and powerful, to ensure the political interests of the group. Second, to occupy a large amount of land, let the tenants cultivate for themselves, so as to possess the grain cultivated by the tenants, so as to ensure the economic interests of the group.
People have feelings, but there is no class. A class will only act according to the purpose of its birth. Therefore, our great Han gradually became a nobleman and a handsome man, and became a farmer who had no rice to eat, and a weaver had no clothes to wear. It became the world's greatest, but there was no place for the people to live and shelter from the rain.
The powerful class will not reduce the occupation of the people due to personal morality. Without external interference, it will only intensify until the exploited class has no way out and suddenly rebels, and it will reflect to reality, that is, the Yellow Turban Rebellion."
Xu Shu frowned and said, "Is the general wrongly accused the Yellow Turban Rebellion against the powerful families?
Moreover, the affairs of tenants have been there since ancient times. People who are poor will be rich. Moreover, the powerful families have been working hard for generations and accumulated family business. The fields, money and food they occupy are not obtained by doing anything illegal and illegal. Didn’t the general say that there are good people among the powerful and good people?
Even when the general cleared the fields, wouldn’t he keep the fields where the powerful families paid taxes every year?
It’s impossible for the world to think that the price of land is low, and that the people in the world can buy their own land to cultivate. Everyone doesn’t have to rent other people’s fields, houses, money and food. They can also find a satisfactory wife?
No way?"
Xu Shu smiled and shook his head, with a look of you, Ma Qiang, saying, "If you really don't want to, you shouldn't be a tenant."
In the past, Wang Mang also felt that all the slaves in the world were suffering, but what was the result?”
Many people in later generations do not understand why there are people speaking for landlords and blessings, and why there are so many spiritual capitalists, you are clearly exploited?
Is it because your ancestors are landlords and your own family is a blessing?
Of course not!
That's because the story of Yang Bailao and Huang Shiren is not performed everywhere in reality. Some Yang Bailao is even ecstatic to hear that Xier can marry Huang Shiren.
Because they will be grateful that in such a society where the strong are kings, someone can take them in, give them food, and do their work so that they can survive.
Yes, it’s enough to survive. Why do you have to ask for so many things? Why do you have to do so many things? What if the strong man who took me in is defeated by you?
Is there really still food to eat outside?
It's better not to take risks.
"There is indeed poverty in the world and wealth, and this is a principle that will never be changed. The powerful families of aristocratic families did make great contributions in the past. Whether it is the Yuan family or the Yang family, there are all people who serve the country in all dynasties." Ma Qiang nodded and admitted, "But their achievements have long been commended. Did their descendants rely on their achievements to become filial and honest officials?"
Ma Qiang laughed after saying that, "Actually, what I want is very simple. I want to give everyone an equal opportunity. The ancestors have achievements and accumulations, and there is nothing much to inherit these accumulations.
But in some things, it should not depend on the accumulation of ancestors, but on personal efforts.
For example, in my imperial examination, I want to tell those powerful families that as long as your descendants do not work hard, as long as you look down on a generation who has worked hard to study, be upright and work hard, you can become a human being.
If a family of aristocratic families come to ask me, why can these people surpass their efforts in more than ten generations or even dozens of generations after ten years of hard work?
I'm going to ask him back, your family has accumulated so many generations, why are you surpassed by a person who has been working hard for ten years? How stupid are you?"
As he said that, Ma Qiang seemed to have thought of something happy, and smiled like a child and said, "Yuan Zhi, I think you were looked down upon by some people because of your background when you were studying at Lumen Academy.
You can't be above me and everyone is equal. Below me, it's natural to do it~
You might as stupid as the children of aristocratic families I just mentioned, right?
How to choose the right man in the future better? Think about it again?"
Xu Shu was silent.
His mentality changed a bit when he was praised as a famous scholar by Pang Degong and others.
He was increasingly trying to maintain the original system because he was about to achieve the class leap that their family wanted for generations to achieve, and to become a gentry from a poor family.
