These words directly confused the people in the car dealership.

Why are the gentry ranked first? Because the gentry are the fundamental rulers of the world.

The fact that the imperial power does not go to the countryside is not just a matter of words.

The transportation in Daqian is extremely underdeveloped, let alone going to the countryside. In remote areas, the local old parents are the emperors of the country.

Take the Qin people's ancestral land in Guanzhong as an example. The nobles killed people, and the old parents didn't even dare to let go.

It is unreasonable to say that it is necessary to cover up the facts.

The capital is four hundred miles away from Guanzhong, what about five hundred miles, eight hundred miles, or even a thousand miles?

Wouldn't it be earth-shaking?

Therefore, it is not just talk about ancient soldiers and generals supporting their troops and respecting themselves.

Old Zhao and Chenqiao rebelled, and that's why the yellow robe came about.

Qin Mo's words can be called treasonous. Isn't this self-rebellion?

"Scientists, farmers, industry and commerce have been like this for thousands of years. How can you just change it if you say it?" Du Jingming couldn't stand it anymore and started arguing quickly.

"Old Du, you are anxious, the situation has become too small, isn't it?" Qin Mo snorted: "I tell you, if this continues, it will be useless. The nobles occupy the best and most fertile land in the world, and they don't have to pay taxes.

It might be nothing at first, but after more than a hundred years, the world has become prosperous and the population has increased dramatically. Where will there be so much land for them to plant?

Guanzhong used to be the most fertile place, but my father said that Guanzhong is not good anymore. There have been too many crops planted over thousands of years, and the soil fertility cannot keep up.

There is not enough land to plant crops, there are too many people, and the problem is that there is not enough food to eat. If there is another natural or man-made disaster, do you think there will be unrest?

Also, this is nothing. The world is so big anyway, so if there is not enough land, just fight. If you win, you will get the land. Then move the Gan people there, and in three generations, it will definitely become the inherent land of Da Gan!

However, fighting a war is not an easy task. The anti-war voice in the imperial court is still very loud now, so in a few decades, if people don't bully us, they probably won't go to war.

What we are about to face next is land annexation.

Thanks to the meritorious deeds of the family, the land was continuously annexed, and the vassal kings became vassals. All taxes were collected in the country, and the people of the land were anointed and raised.

If we meet a conscientious vassal king, the people under his rule may still be able to have enough to eat. If we meet a heartless vassal king, like those in the fish and meat village, do you think the world will be filled with joy?

Moreover, there will be more and more vassal kings in the future. When the time comes, the imperial court will no longer be able to grant any title. What should we do?

In the event of a natural or man-made disaster, a drop of water falling into the oil pan will instantly detonate the situation!"

In the carriage, everyone was silent.

Everyone was shocked by Qin Mo's words.

"Jingyun, do you mean to change the structure of scholars, farmers, industry and commerce?" Li Shilong asked tentatively.

To be honest, he felt a little scared when he said this.

This is no longer just a slap on the neck of the aristocratic family, but also the meritorious service of the imperial court.

"I made it very clear. Although I, Qin Mo, have not read any books, I also like to listen to stories. When I was a child, I was thinking about why all dynasties lasted for three to four hundred years and died in just a few decades. Woolen cloth?

Father, you also hope that Da Qian Guozuo will last for hundreds or thousands of years, right?"

"That's natural!" Li Shilong said: "Historical records show that the longest dynasty in Zuo was eight hundred years!"

"In my opinion, if Daqian continues like this, it will take at most two to three hundred years!"

Ouch, little ancestor, can you say this?

Gao Shilian's heart almost jumped out of fear.

Li Yue also wiped the sweat from his forehead, "Idiot, don't talk nonsense. My father is so wise, how can it be possible that Da Qian Guo Zuo only lived for two or three hundred years?"

Li Zhi saw this and said, "Are you cursing Da Gan?"

"I don't talk to people who run brothels!" Qin Mo killed Li Zhi with just one sentence, and then said to Li Shilong: "Father, I just made it very clear. If I want Da Qian Guozuo to be longer, I have There are two ways, one is to continuously expand the land and always let the people under the rule have food to eat.

Our Daqian people are the most honest and lovely people. As long as they have food to eat, they will not rebel.

The second is to constantly adapt to society through innovation, and always put the people first. Only by making them feel treated, their lives will get better, they will have food to eat, and their children will have room for advancement, and people will Everyone has hope, but do you think they will rebel?"

At this moment, everyone was silent, especially Li Shilong.

Although Qin Mo spoke in plain language, it was very reasonable.

Du Jingming said: "That's good, but everything is so beautiful, you still think too simply."

"My father has told me since I was a child not to argue with fools. If you argue, you are right!" Qin Mo said.

Du Jingming was extremely embarrassed. This Qin Mo was too capable of fighting.

"Jingyun, what can you do?"

"Father, what can I do? These are all my own thoughts. I don't know what's right or wrong. If you think it's right, just use it. If it's not, it's okay." Qin Mo scratched his head.

Li Yue said at this time: "Father, I think Hanzi is right. Although we can't see these problems now, looking at the history, it is always like this for a dynasty to prosper and collapse.

Therefore, Erchen thinks that the fool's two methods are very good. First, we should expand our territory externally. Secondly, we should focus on internal affairs and continuously improve people's livelihood so that all the people in the world can have enough to eat. Only the common people can Only when you have enough food can you have enough food to pay taxes.

Ordinary people have the ability to protect themselves in the face of natural disasters.

Therefore, I am willing to give up the Yuezhou fiefdom and distribute all the land in the fiefdom to the Li people under my rule, so as to collect more tax revenue for the imperial court."

This sentence shocked everyone present again.

The feudal king gave up his fiefdom?

It has never happened since ancient times!

"Lao Ba, do you know what you are talking about?" Li Shilong frowned.

"My son, I know clearly. What I said is right. The world has just opened, there are few princes, and there are still places in the world that can be sealed.

What about more than a hundred years later? Will there still be fiefdoms?

All food and tax revenue under the rule belonged to the king, and he had to pay tribute from the capital every year, which put great pressure on the court.

What if there is a calamity year and the court is also in trouble?

Therefore, I sincerely ask my father to grant me permission. If I want to become a vassal, I only need a place to establish a vassal.

The king goes to the fiefdom not to enjoy the blessings, but to govern the place."

Li Yue's words were so impactful that Li Shilong's expression relaxed, and he laughed loudly from behind.

Qin Mo also didn't expect that Li Yue would have such an awareness.

What a good boy, your path has been broadened in one fell swoop.

Let's put it this way, staying in the capital will give you more opportunities than joining a feudal clan.

And it's so open and aboveboard that no one can tell anything wrong.

Dou Xuanling and Du Jingming were in the same mood, they both raised their hands and said, "The king of Yue has such a big heart, I admire him!"
