Li Chenan picked up the wine bowl and beat the two of them in one fell swoop.

Su Yian quickly picked up the wine bowl. Liu Xiayin was suddenly stunned, and he also took a big sip with him.

He didn't eat the pig's ears anymore.

Because Li Chenan just said that he wanted to talk to Su Yian about agriculture...

In all dynasties, no matter which country, agriculture must be the foundation of the country!

But the news from Jiangnan said that the Regent will soon promote the revitalization of industry and commerce!

It is not an agricultural problem that needs to be solved urgently.

He put the problem of agriculture behind industry and commerce!

This seems very ridiculous to Liu Xiayin.

This is also one of the reasons why Liu Xiayin disliked the regent—

Even if you can’t fill your stomach and your life is hanging. What’s the use of prosperity in industry and commerce?

This is not just Liu Xiayin’s thought.

It is estimated that most of the officials in the Ningguo court today do not understand this very well.

Except for explaining to Wen Zhuoyu and other officials in the Imperial Study Room, Li Chenan has not yet discussed this issue in depth to anyone.

But today he wanted to talk to Su Yian.

Because Wen Zhuoyu believes that Su Yian has the talent of being a good minister!

Although Li Chen'an abolished the Prime Minister, the highest officials of the three provinces were equivalent to the former prime minister, and they only divided the power of the prime minister.

But these three highest officials from the three provinces were appointed temporarily.

For example, Cheng Jingting, the minister of the subordinate, was a helpless move to drive the ducks on the shelves.

No one to trust is available!

The old Duke Cheng was already very old. It was not that he would be useless when he was old, but that his energy could not keep up with the pace of the court's subsequent implementation of a series of reform measures.

So Wen Zhuoyu hopes that Li Chenan can convince Su Yian. If Su Yian is willing to return to the court, in Wen Zhuoyu's opinion, he is a rare talent.

But Li Chen'an's reform measures were really advanced. What he was more worried about was that great scholars like Su Yian would usually have a very stubborn mind.

If they cannot change their minds and cannot accept their own opinions... then his great talent will have no effect on Li Chenan.

It will even become a huge resistance!

The only one who understands Li Chen'an is Xiao Baozi—

No matter how strong a cow is, if it does not cultivate the land... it is definitely not a good cow!

Rather than keeping waste of forage, it is better to slaughter and eat meat!

The three of them took a sip of wine.

Li Chenan put down the wine bowl and looked at Su Yian, and asked:

"Sir, why are there very few dynasties that have been descended for thousands of years? "

This is what Li Chenan is asking Su Yian.

Liu Xiayin also put down the wine bowl and looked at Su Yian. He didn't know how Su Yian would deal with it next.

Su Yian pondered for three breaths, stroked his short beard and said slowly:

"In my opinion, the reasons are nothing more than three points."

"Mr. Su, let me hear it."

"First, in the late dynasty, corrupt officials were usually rampant in the temple, but the people were living in poverty."

"Secondly, in fact, the rulers of all dynasties attached great importance to people's livelihood at the beginning of the country, especially the farmers!"

"To overthrow an old dynasty, the rulers would almost redistribute the land of the old dynasty to the peasants."

"But this class that truly maintains the interests of the system rulers is not the peasants, but the scholars and officials in the world!"

"They, read books and have knowledge, and only they can help rulers govern the country."

"As time goes by, the group of scholars and officials will become larger and larger, and their hands will stretch longer and longer... and the land can plant the most important food, which is the most important living substance in any dynasty."

"As the power in the hands of literati and officials becomes greater, they will be involved in all walks of life for the benefit of their family, including land!"

"They control the law, their connections, their armed forces, etc. They will use these powers to infringe on the people and take the land to them at a low price from the people, and the original owners of these lands became their tenant farmers."

"Third... the farmers without land will become rootless duckweed."

"They have no ability to resist unknown risks."

"For example, famine, plague, disease... any disaster will displace them, so they will take risks and become bandits."

"A country exists in different lengths of history, but in my opinion, if these three points are summarized in one place, it is just a sentence."

Li Chenan raised his eyebrows: "What kind of sentence?"

“The distribution is unfair!”

When Su Yian said these four words, Li Chenan truly admired him.

He immediately sat up straight and asked again: "What aspects of injustice do sir think are there?"

"I think that first of all, it is educational injustice!"

"Reading is a very expensive task. The children of farmers cannot afford to read at all!"

"They were not from the literati class, and their children had no chance of being recommended to be officials!"

"The imperial examination was created by the previous dynasty. It was originally a great innovation. It provided children from poor families with an opportunity to enter the official career, but..."

Su Yian took a deep breath and shook his head: "It's just a cover-up!"

"Reading is a very luxurious thing. Poor people are poor, so how can they afford to pay for their children to study?"

"Their class has never been changed for generations. The only way to change is to gather people and turn against each other when they are desperate one day!"

"Secondly, the unfair distribution of wealth!"

"The scholar-official class controls the greatest wealth of the entire country. They live a life of living, but the people who support them have put in the most effort, but they are still poor... Everyone wants to live a good life. Why are some people born rich and noble, and most people still unable to turn over even if they spend the efforts of several generations?"

"This is not to worry about lack of weight but not to be uneven."

"Again, it is the injustice of the law!"

"I have been thinking, everyone is human, why can't the doctor be punished?"

"Why can the poor be bullied by the rich?"

"The land held by farmers has been largely annexed by the rich, and there are many dark places here!"

"The people who master the law and the rich go together, the peasants lost their land, and there was not even a place to shout for justice!"

"The accumulated resentment will inevitably lead to an opposition between the two classes!"

"Once this opposition reaches a certain irreconcilable level, once someone shakes the flag and shouts... the world will be in chaos!"

"So, wars rose everywhere, and another vigorous battle began, until this dynasty was overthrown and until another new dynasty was established."

"The reason why it's only three hundred years is the time from the brewing to the occurrence and then to the end of these contradictions."

"The short-lived dynasty is just that these contradictions break out more quickly and become more intense."

"I am generally so in my opinion, so I think that if the Regent wants to build a strong country, he should start with how to solve the problem that the land of the peasants will always belong to the peasants."

"Rather than starting from industry and commerce!"

"Because no dynasty perished because of the backwardness of industry and commerce!"
