Survival or destruction, this is an eternal problem.
The old dynasty has fallen. This is destruction.
Just like a forest on fire, after the fire spreads, there is another spring rain, and everything will become new.
However, after this forest fire, the first new shoots to sprout are those plants with deep roots. Therefore, the dominant species is still the dominant species. A fire destroys its trunk and branches. As long as the spring rain falls, , they will still take root and sprout.
The new forest is more vibrant than the stable forest.
This is the only thing Yun Zhao can understand.
Wars, famines, floods, droughts, and plagues destroyed the old Zhu Ming Dynasty, but the people who were tired of suffering and war rebuilt a brand new Lantian Dynasty on the ruins.
When He Tengjiao's head was chopped off in Nanchang, the last trace of fireworks from the Zhu Ming Dynasty also turned into a line of blue smoke curling up to the ninth heaven with He Tengjiao's death, and finally turned into nothingness.
When Zhu Ming ruled the world, Yun Zhao was advocating that the world be a commonwealth. However, after the rise of the Lantian Dynasty, it would make Yun Zhao heartbroken to cut down those branches and vines.
So, it’s easy to hurt others, but forget it about yourself...
As Zhang Guozhu said, the right thing is not necessarily the thing that is beneficial to the people, and the thing that is beneficial to the people is not necessarily politically correct.
So, this is the binary opposition in political life.
Yun Zhao’s current external environment is far better than that of later generations.
Today’s Empire on which the Sun Never Sets is nothing, and is considered barbarian by the rest of Europe. Later, there was the Rakshasa Kingdom, which was rolling with iron currents. In Yun Zhao’s eyes, it was just a group of beasts in disguise. skinned beast.
As for the ridiculously powerful North America, now, as long as Yun Zhao is willing, he can send a group of men in black across the ocean to kill them all.
At this time, Yun Zhao even has enough courage to go to war with the whole world!
You know, an ordinary rich man in Lantian County has more wealth than the Dukes and Earls of Europe.
Even when the Ming Dynasty was at its weakest, the dynasty's annual output still accounted for 40% of the world's effective output.
Today’s Lantian Empire is the real Central Empire.
Being strong can cover up many political flaws. Yun Zhao can only do this. The rest depends on whether the dynasty has the ability to correct its mistakes... Yun Zhao hopes that he can... …
This is why ambitious emperors are most often described as tragic figures in history books.
There are too many things that have not been done, and there are too many things that cannot be done due to reality. Just like the blacksmith wants to swing a giant hammer, the farmer wants to cultivate the land in the world, and the shepherd wants cattle. The sheep are full of pits and grains, and the merchants want to take them awayMoney all over the world is the same.
It sounds really miserable to hold the power of the sky but do nothing in vain.
So, Yun Zhao decided to give up.
The scholars in Jiangnan are unwilling to work in Lantian. Although this is the result of Lantian not needing them, they still publicize that they are indifferent to fame and fortune, and just want to write a book and hide it in Nanshan for future generations to discover. .
There are also people who want to use opera, a new cultural method, to tell the world something.
Even more people are willing to express their feelings directly with the bald pen in their hands, write sad and angry poems about underappreciated talents, and complain to the world about the unfairness of the world.
However, when their children were admitted to Yushan Academy, they sang the poem "Look up to the sky and laugh loudly and go out, how can we be from Penggao?" to show the world the ecstasy in their hearts .
“Once unfaithful, you will never be disloyal!”
This is the step that Jiangnan scholars found to prevent them from becoming an official after trying to figure out Yun Zhao’s thoughts.
This is a very humble step, but the purpose is very clear. They dare not ruin the progress of their children.
The Jiangnan scholar community is still very confident.
It doesn’t matter if one or two generations cannot enter the officialdom. Anyway, as far as reading is concerned, the literary talents in Jiangnan are far better than those natives in Guanzhong.
Yes, this is how scholars in the Ming Dynasty viewed northern scholars.
What they didn’t know was that Yun Zhao had already changed the way he studied.
If those scholars from Jiangnan use their own methods to teach their own children, the consequences will be disastrous.
Yun Zhao believes that the most vicious thing about the eight-part essay is that he has taught people the ability to do things on the spot in a snail shell, and to make things as detailed as possible, but he has lost the ability to look at the world.
Xia Wanchun now has the courage to swallow thousands of miles like a tiger.
He is not only building railways from Yushan City to Fenghuang Mountain City, Yushan to Chang'an, and Fenghuang Mountain City to Chang'an, but he has also made drastic reforms to the economic structure of Lantian County.
The first thing he did was to move all the steel plants in Lantian County out of Lantian County. The black smoky steel plants had long become a cancer in Lantian County.
Although this thing has contributed a lot of taxes, it is also as ferocious as a tiger in harming the environment.
After seeing the large area around the steel plant, the large trees burned to death by sulfuric acid fumes, and the river filled with dead fish, Xia Wanchun's determination to relocate the steel plant became as firm as a rock.
The steel factory has been moved, and the steel manufacturing plant must also be moved. Then, things like hydraulic lathes must also be moved. At least, they can no longer exist in Yushan City.
Paper mills, wool textile mills, silk reeling mills, dyeing mills, and other workshops were also relocated.
The wastewater discharged by a paper mill is enough to make it impossible for fish and shrimp in a river to survive.
OneThe foul-smelling wastewater discharged from the woolen textile mills was enough to eliminate human habitation within a radius of two or three miles.
These workshops that played an incomparable role in the founding of the Lantian Dynasty are now completely different from the Lantian County that Xia Wanchun expected, and the contradictions among the people have become very acute.
The steel factory alone spent 14,000 silver dollars last year to compensate the people for their polluted fields, livestock, and water wells.
There have been more than 100 fights and disputes due to pollution incidents in Lantian County.
In addition, the people in Guanzhong are now burning coal, and when winter comes... it will be terrible.
Master Liu cannot move these workshops.
Xia Wanchun has no problem.
In addition, they have no longer granted land to these rapidly expanding workshops in recent years, and they themselves feel that the place where the workshop is located is too cramped to turn around, so they quickly negotiated the relocation matters, and The relocation address has been found.
However, the first requirement for these workshops is the railway!
The place where the workshop is newly relocated must have a railway connecting the workshop with Chang'an!
The next requirement is land replacement.
The directors of these state-owned workshops unanimously believe that the value of the land formerly occupied by the workshops is much higher than that of the relocation site, so there must be a land compensation policy when relocating.
Finally, they also requested that there was no way to relocate the blast furnace. They moved to a new place and needed to rebuild the blast furnace. Therefore, Lantian County must provide sufficient compensation.
If these conditions cannot be met, they will not hesitate to take the lawsuit to the Prime Minister's Office. If this is not possible, it is not impossible to take the case to the imperial court.
These conditions made Xia Wanchun furious. When he came to ask his master for policies, he closed the door and beat him severely.
"Why don't you compensate me?"
After the beating, Yun Zhao threw away the cane and then began to reason with his apprentice.
“They are greedy!”
“Why are they greedy? You want to demolish the workshop, and they agree to demolish it. It is your request, so you will not compensate them. Do they have to bear the losses during the relocation? "
"That is the property of the country, and mine is also the property of the country, there is no need!"
Yun Zhao said again! He slapped Xia Wanchun on the forehead and said loudly: "It's not necessary? Have you asked the great craftsman Liu Guohui for his opinion? They are just waiting for you to come to discuss compensation.
Although the property is all The property of the country, however, is still divided into departments.
The reason why they agreed to the relocation was partly because you are my eldest disciple, and the other half was because they planned to use the compensation from the relocation to rebuild the country. Planning and setting up a new workshop.
If you refuse to pay compensation, do you believe that Liu Guohui will refuse to move and report your bad behavior to me? ”
< p>Xia Wanchun sighed deeplyHe said in a tone: "The relocation fee of six million silver dollars, six million silver dollars was thrown into the water in vain, and there was not even a sound." Yun Zhao was angry and hit the disciple's head again. He slapped his face and said, "You ghost, you ghost, how much do you want to exchange these slaps and the whip you just received?"Xia Wanchun rolled his eyes and looked at the roof, and after a long time he said: "As long as Just allow your disciple to go to the Prime Minister's Office to apply for the subsidy."
Yun Zhao said with a smile: "The Prime Minister's Office is now a pass-through fortune-teller. If you leave the matter in Zhang Guozhu's hands, Zhang Guozhu will still give it back to you. , let you think of a way.
If you dare to say that there is no way, they will write a letter saying that you are a vegetarian."
Xia Wanchun spread his hands and said: "I have no money!" p>
Yun Zhao glanced at his disciple and said, "Then just endure the sour smoke and dirty water."
"Is there no other way?"
"No, For now, you can only go to an unimportant place to pollute.”
Xia Wanchun came to Yun Zhao to find a way, but he couldn’t get any solution, and he was whipped and beaten countless times in vain. hit.
Yun Zhao thought that this guy must have a solution. He didn't think that a mere six million silver dollars would be enough to make him the magistrate of Lantian County.
These workshops that need to be relocated are actually a symbol of Lantian’s huge strength.
It is because of these large chimneys that spit acid smoke into the sky day and night, and the workshops that continuously discharge sewage into the rivers, that the Lantian Dynasty’s army composed of steel can attack and be invincible. .
Pollution first, treatment later, Yun Zhao still knows this strategy.
This is a fate that all industrialized countries cannot escape.
Unless another kind of industrial civilization can appear on this earth - for example, people can cultivate something called "qi", or everyone can cultivate to fly with a sword, move mountains and fill seas mythical realm.
