The Empress’ Livestream

Chapter 821: Build the prefecture, set the capital (10)

Views:

Building a city requires on-the-spot inspections, measuring the land, and understanding the situation before proceeding with design and drawing.

Wei Ci knew that she had been pitted by Zhang Ping, a pig teammate, and would not have any leisure time in the future.

Before going to Beijing, Wei Ci secretly searched for Jiang Pengji, and the two had a secret conversation, the content of which was only known to them.

"My lord, I asked a disrespectful thing - what are your intentions?" Wei Ci is a very rational person. After two days of adjustment, he has recovered from the nightmare that night, and he looks like a normal person. Now when he talks about Business, not personal.

Jiang Pengji and Wei Ci chose a secluded place to talk.

Even if there are ears on the wall, Jiang Pengji can find it immediately, because no one in the world can hide from her spiritual exploration.

"Where is your ambition?" She murmured and said with a smile, "Naturally, it is the ambition of the world and the people. Zixiao and I have the same mind and ambition. If you have something to say, you can just say it directly, no need to do this. Temptation. As long as you say it, I will listen carefully."

When Wei Ci heard this, her cheeks were hot and her ears were bloodshot.

Jiang Pengji said such misleading words when she had nothing to do, even though Wei Ci had experienced a hundred battles, she still couldn't resist.

He restrained his wandering thoughts, returned to normal, and said earnestly, "My lord, kindness is not only for the world and for the people, but also for the prosperity of the country and the prosperity of the world. Today, in the troubled times, countless people have suffered from this catastrophe. They had to leave their homes, be displaced, lose their homes and land, and even countless people sold their children and daughters to survive, just to survive. The world knows that the world will be divided for a long time, and the world will be divided for a long time, and the country will prosper and decline. Zuo is prosperous, because the monarch is wise and the officials are virtuous, so that the weather is good and the people live and work in peace and contentment. But, the country is declining, why is this? Just because the monarch is stupid and the officials are mediocre?"

There are only a few reasons for the prosperity of a country, but what about the decline of a country

Just because the monarch is stupid, the officials are mediocre, and the weather is not good

Regarding this question, Wei Ci started thinking about it when he was young in his previous life, and has been thinking about it until now.

Wei Ci has always admired Jiang Pengji, not only because what the other party did was his ideal, but also because of another reason.

The other party is the beacon on his lost road, guiding him to uncover many questions that confuse him.

If you pick up any of these questions and say it, it may cause an uproar, and it will lead to criticism from scholars all over the world.

Wei Ci was aware of the danger, but he did not feel lonely and helpless, because he knew that there were others walking on the same path as him.

"Ci looked through the historical records and found that the decline of the country is not only a top-down phenomenon, but also a bottom-up phenomenon. If the country is likened to a towering tree, the monarch is the crown, and the officials are the branches, then the common people are The root system extends vertically and horizontally to the ground. If the crown dies, the tree can still survive. If the branches are damaged, the trunk can still extend. However, if the root system is damaged in large areas, the tree is in danger.”

Jiang Pengji listened carefully.

She could feel that he had his own understanding and sentiment about it, not just scripting it, let alone talking about it on paper.

Wei Ci continued, "Soil is the root of tree roots, and it is the foundation that nurtures them. If these soils are taken away by people, tree roots cannot live."

Jiang Pengji looked solemn, and understood what Wei Ci meant.

"You mean land merger?"

Wei Ci's face tightened, she took a deep breath, and said solemnly, "That's right!"

What is land merger

Today's land can be bought and sold. Aristocratic families, squires, and bureaucrats can borrow power and money to get more and more land from peasants, and even make them have no apprentices. This phenomenon is especially obvious in disaster years. Once the people lose their land, it means that they have lost their means of survival. They can only continue to sell their properties and become low-cost laborers and become tenant farmers for the big landlords. In this era, this is a stubborn disease that is difficult to cure, and it will become more and more serious.

Once the land annexation reaches a certain level, the country will also go to the path of decline, and even if the Lord of ZTE emerges, the dynasty cannot be saved.

Land mergers will intensify, and there will be conflicts that cannot be reconciled between peasants and the tyrants who own a lot of land, and the country will also have violent frictions with these tyrants. Throughout the history books, many Qingming monarchs will take measures to curb the pace of mergers, so that land mergers can be alleviated to a certain extent. If it can't be alleviated, then there will inevitably be a problem - the peasants will raise their hoes to rebel!

Jiang Pengji is from the future, and the entire universe is an area for human exploration.

Because of interstellar warfare and people's thinking, the speed of population reproduction is simply not as fast as the speed of expansion.

For intelligent creatures, the entire universe is boundless, and they have a wider space and an endless unknown field to explore.

But in ancient times, it was different. Human beings were technologically backward and productivity was low. They were invisibly bound by the land, and it was difficult to break free.

For them, the land is a piece of cake. The more others share, the less they share. There is a conflict of interest between them.

The source of human war is the struggle of interests, and in the ancient times, tracing the origin is even more the struggle for land!

Not to mention this plane, the audience in the live broadcast room also has the problem of land mergers.

In the history of China, there have been endless laws and regulations governing land mergers in successive dynasties, and land reforms have progressed layer by layer.

This is the case with the land-equalization system, the one-whip method, and the pie-in-the-mu.

Jiang Pengji disliked the discomfort of kneeling and sitting, so she changed her posture and said a few words, "Tell me, I'll listen."

Wei Ci felt his heart beat like a drum, and he could hear the powerful vibration from his left chest, he knew he was nervous.

"My lord... According to the opinion of kindness, why not pinch the source of the land annexation from the root!"

After saying these words, Wei Ci felt that she had lost all her strength, just waiting for Jiang Pengji to express her position.

Jiang Pengji asked, "Pinch off the source?"

Wei Ci didn't say anything, only said eight words—

"Under the whole world, could it be the king's land!"

Jiang Pengji was startled, she raised her eyes and looked at Wei Ci, only to see the firmness in the other's eyes.

After a while, she smiled happily.

"okay, I get it."

Under the whole world, could it be the king's land!

She likes it.

Not only do I like this sentence, but I also seem to like the person who said it more.

"Zixiao, come here."

She beckoned to Wei Ci, her face turned from pale to ruddy. Seeing her calling, a hint of hesitation flashed in her eyes.

But - Wei Ci never knew what "no" was when facing Jiang Pengji.

They walked forward on their knees, and the two were less than ten inches apart.

Jiang Pengji grabbed his hand abruptly, and Wei Ci almost jumped up in shock.

"Don't be afraid, I won't eat you again."

Wei Ci secretly showed a wry smile, the other party really wouldn't eat him, but for him, it might be more frightening than eating.

"The heart of filial piety is with me."

Wei Ci's eyes widened in astonishment. Those eyes, which contained all things and stars, were so bright that they felt dazzling.

The audience in the live broadcast room watching the whole process: "..."

This dog food is too filling.
