"Yes, these outsiders, instead of staying at home, went to Hangzhou to die. Do they deserve it?" King Yu asked in a strange tone.
At this point, Duke Dingguo still doesn’t understand. These outsiders were none other than the refugees who had originally poured into Hangzhou. Moreover, it seems that autumn is about to begin, and I am afraid that there will still be a wave of refugees pouring into Hangzhou before this winter.
"My dear, Meng Lang, I will stick to my duty from now on and never do this again." Xu Yande was also knowledgeable and immediately changed the subject. I don’t dare to talk too much about the refugees. If one fails, the car will overturn.
"Your Majesty, it's just that Hangzhou has caused a sharp drop in land prices this time. We, the Nanjing gentry, who don't have workshops, have lost their family business for more than a hundred years, and we are somewhat resentful. I also felt resentful for a while. My mind is blinded by resentment."
Wang Yu was very happy when Xu Yande was willing to tell the truth. You should have said so earlier. If I had said this earlier, everything would have been easily solved.
Ding Guogong is different from Wei Guogong. His family basically owns all kinds of land. Recently, the land price has dropped and he has bought some more. It’s just that now it’s completely a bargain and it’s halfway up the mountain.
"There is one more thing that I would like to say if I don't say it. Wei Guogong has more contact with Xinxue, but I have not been idle in recent days. I have obtained the latest handwritten textbooks of Xinxue. There is a word for economic crisis."
"I think that the plummeting land prices in Jiangnan this time may be what Xinxue calls an economic crisis. I am not saying that Gao Hanwen intended to cause chaos, but he knew that there would be. From this point of view, the entire manuscript textbook is Xu Yande's final bet, but he did not submit a letter to arrange it in advance.
Wang Yu is quite familiar with new textbooks, but he has not carefully read the latest economic crisis. At this time, I frowned when I saw it.
"Stay back"
King Yu dismissed Xu Yande and closed the door to further study the content by himself.
"You said that everyone wants to be a minister for many generations and their family property will last forever. Is there anything wrong with this idea?"
Wang Yu held the lesson plan sent by Gao Hanwen alone. Ask the little eunuch next to the study.
Different from the students' handwritten textbooks that Xu Yande got, what Yu Wang had in his hands was a lesson plan, in which the concept of each key sentence was explained clearly. The handwritten version depends on whether the student has attached course notes. If there are none, the intention of the textbook cannot be seen.
This economic crisis seems to be Gao Hanwen's solution to the 300-year curse.
Just imagine, if within 300 years, the gentry and dignitaries of the entire dynasty could easily make a lot of money from land, how resentful the people of the world would be.
How scary a dynasty without economic crisis would be. This means that the world has a sustainable arbitrage mechanism. As long as you use your identity to occupy the land, you can naturally sit back and relax forever.
Such a thing would be okay if you were a gentry and a powerful person, but if you were a commoner, you would really not be reconciled to it. This is why the middle and later stages of the dynasty were full of powerful officials and ambitious rebels.
If the opposition is taking advantage of the dissatisfaction of ordinary people, then they will naturally be the rebel leaders.
If the government is taking advantage of the lower-class gentry who have benefited unevenly, then they will naturally be the leaders of powerful ministers.
“It would be best if there is an economic crisis every ten years, so that Ming’s profit-making mechanism can be diversified and rotated. No one can forever occupy a mechanism and use it as his own eternal profit-making machine. ."
Wang Yu looked at the annotations on the lesson plan and was filled with anxiety. Fortunately, Xu Yande did not see these contents, otherwise Gao Hanwen would not be held accountable for his indulgence in the crisis.
After closing the book, King Yu remembered another sentence in the book: any arbitrage mechanism is limited. Using land as the only arbitrage mechanism will inevitably collapse with the efficiency limit of land. Two hundred years is basically the limit of land production efficiency. With continuous farming, the land will become barren and barren.
When land production has long lost its growth potential, but the officials and gentry are still pursuing land at high prices, it is destined to collapse.
While King Yu was resting, he asked Lu Fang to verify the yield of the land, as if for final verification. Please remember to collect it, the latest and fastest website is free to read without anti-theft
