Chapter 30 Public Discussions on the State of Land

"Lin'an can surrender, but I will not surrender. The Song Dynasty can perish, but I will not perish. Jia Sidao does not represent the Song Dynasty, nor does it represent the China. Because of being free from the will of Jia Sidao, you can betray the motherland and surrender to the enemy? These scholars and officials want to surrender themselves, but they can still be their own choice. Now, if you defend these people, you can be ashamed of being a human being!" Because of anger, Sima Kao's voice was sharp, and his emotions were probably not much lower than the roar.

Zhao Jiaren felt that this was considered to be a patriotic education level that had been implemented, but it was too dogmatic and lacked materialist dialectics. But he did not pick on the bones. If he talked about materialist dialectics, what he wanted to criticize now is probably the position and interests of the landlord class of the Song Dynasty. If we analyze it from this perspective, the landlord class may have a natural backbone.

No matter what Zhao Jiaren thought, after Sima Kao's angrily rebuked with a swear word, Wen Liangrong's mental state was not overwhelmed by Sima Kao. He retorted decisively, "For three hundred years, the scholars stood up when they encountered national crisis. Jia Sidao used his own power and forced military generals and suppressed scholars, and only then did he find out what he is today. Today, so many people follow Zhao Taiwei, but it is not that Zhao Taiwei has devoted his energy and wisdom to benefit everyone for more than ten years..."

When Zhao Jiaren heard someone telling the truth so clearly, especially the reason for his own rise, he couldn't help feeling a little horrified. The eyes of the masses were indeed sharp, and no one said it publicly, which did not mean that no one could understand it. The army that seemed to be gathered with a wave of hand was not established in a day or two. Feeling that the eyes of the Jinshi of the Song Dynasty were not bad, Zhao Jiaren's horror quickly became happy. If the Song Dynasty had reached such a level, it would be easier to communicate with the people.

"You traitor!" Sima Kao was so angry that he shouted.

This emotion was so excited that Zhao Jiaren felt a little puzzled. However, looking at Sima Kao's angry look, Zhao Jiaren thought about it. Is it so angry that Sima Kao was exposed because the truth was exposed? If the guess was true, it means that Sima Kao also saw Zhao Jiaren's way of rising up early. Moreover! Sima Kao felt that this thing was a bit unreasonable.

Zhao Jiaren was not ashamed of his rise. He even felt that his rise was so arduous and even worthy of praise. However, from the perspective of the official, even if Zhao Jiaren's actions were not unfaithful, it at least proved that Zhao Jiaren was not a pure minister.

Once the dispute reaches the point of being labeled, there is no way to reason. As a traitor, Wen Liangrong was furious half-true and half-false. He immediately retorted: "I am the official of the court. During my tenure as an official in Fuzhou, I have never slacked off. When Mongolia went south and the court was in crisis, I tried my best to do my best. When I was an official, Sima Kao, what were you doing? You only became an official again after you arrived in Fuzhou. Regarding hard work, I can be above you."

The most painful experience in Sima Kao's life so far is the dark time when he was hit by Jia Sidao and had to retire early. Even if he rose again with Zhao Jiaren's power, Sima Kao felt that there were only a few years of precious time completely abandoned. This pair of academic masters was very difficult to accept.

Wen Liangrong showed the level of Jinshi in his verbal benefits, which directly touched Sima Kao's heart disease. Before Sima Kao was completely brought to the ditch, Zhao Jiaren spoke, "Sima Kao. Since he can't compete with others in his verbal words, you can admit defeat and accept it."

Sima Kao could not understand this at all. He turned his head angrily and looked at Zhao Jiaren. What caught his eye was Zhao Jiaren's calm and steady expression. There was no blame in this expression, but there was a little sympathy. This made Sima Kao feel like he was thinking.

Zhao Jiaren sighed in his heart. This is the weakness of human beings, but it is also a weakness that cannot be overcome. It is too difficult to change one's own view by reversing the electrical signal. It is also a content that chooses one's own path regardless of the court. Zhao Jiaren's neurons label this content as a positive emotion worthy of pride. In Simakao's neuron circuit, it is marked as painful recollection of this negative emotion.

As long as you touch this memory, it will bring pain to Sima Kao. If it is the root of pain in the use of speech points, it can have a huge impact on Sima Kao. Sima Kao is not such a guy who loses his rationality and is easily mobilized by others with words.

Although I really want to help Sima Kao, Zhao Jiaren had no choice at this time. He didn't have time to let Sima Kao understand these problems. In the current time, what Zhao Jiaren could do is to end this matter, and hope that Sima Kao's brain nerve circuit would have the part that "decisively admit defeat" and "decisively give up the sunken cost".

I don’t know if there is really a part of Zhao Jiaren’s hope in Sima Kao’s spirit. Anyway, Sima Kao finally raised his finger and pointed at Wen Liangrong threatily, and then shut up.

Sima Kao, who was defeated, temporarily withdrew from the battle group. Zhao Jiaren himself chose to go on the battle himself. He had no intention of giving up on the matter of land ownership.

"We can fight away the Mongolian invaders, eating rice from Jiaozhi, Chameng, and Siam. They eat beef from Jeju Island, and the spices from the South China Sea, Tianzhu, and Sinhalese. Jiaozhi, Chameng, Siam, and Jeju Island all use the land state system. The people of the Song Dynasty farmed and operated there without paying land rent. All they had to do was sell the various materials they produced to the court. Then they bought the goods they needed from the supply and marketing cooperatives run by the court..."

Now more than half of the cadres under Zhao Jiaren's army are under the imperial court, and most of the remaining half are officials who choose to support the Zhao family. However, so far, many people have no idea about how Zhao Jiaren operates the "outside domain". At this time, Zhao Jiaren began to talk about the business model, and everyone listened very seriously. Those guys who had the corresponding training even took out their small notebooks and used pencils to quickly record them.

After talking about the situation in the operation areas of the state-owned land system, Zhao Jiaren summarized: "Many people know that when the public land reform, I opposed the public land reform. That does not mean that I did not sit in the position of the left prime minister at that time, so I had to oppose the public land reform. Now that I have the power, I will do more radical than the public land reform. This is not the case. In my opinion, if it is wrong to go east, it is definitely wrong to go west. I opposed the public land reform because of Jia Sidao's public land reform at that time.

It is based on the current production method of the Song Dynasty to simply change the ownership of a certain part of the land. This method of changing soups and not changing medicines is destined to not solve the problem. If you want to solve the problem, you must have a new model that is suitable for this state-owned land. I made certain adjustments in the Sanfu, and I directly adopted the new model in the out-of-territorial land at that time. Judging from the results, the effect is very good. I want to do state-owned land now, not to crack down on people with land, but to solve the problems that have been in the Song Dynasty for hundreds of years."

After saying this, Zhao Jiaren glanced sharply over everyone and said almost word by word: "I want to ask you now, if you oppose the state-owned land, you think the system of state-owned land itself has problems, so you should oppose it. Or you don't care whether this system is good to the Song Dynasty or not, but because you have land at home, you must firmly oppose the state-owned land."

After Zhao Jiaren finished speaking, he picked up the water cup and started drinking. This speech made him dry and needed moisture to nourish him. The clerk next to him saw that Zhao Jiaren had finished drinking the water in a few sips, and hurriedly brought the kettle to fill Zhao Jiaren's cup. Zhao Jiaren turned to the waiter and said, "Thank you."

Although it was normal for Zhao Jiaren to thank him, the little official couldn't help but smile. He answered in the standardized model that the Political Affairs Hall had recently begun: "No need to thank you." Then he walked along the seats of everyone attending the meeting to see if there were still others who needed to add water.

At this point, there was a voice in the room. It was also a simple answer between "thank you" and "no thank you". Apart from that, no one dared to talk about a word about the question raised by Zhao Jiaren before. Including Wen Liangrong, who was very fierce in fighting Sima Kao, did not dare to say anything.

Is it to oppose state-owned land or to preserve your own private land? This is a question that is easy to understand. It is easier to answer, just say "Agree" or "Oppose".

Everyone actually knows the thoughts in their hearts. Similarly, everyone is very clear about the comparison between themselves and Zhao Jiaren's power, and is very clear that Zhao Jiaren wants to implement state-owned land because Zhao Jiaren wants to turn the land into his. Before Jia Sidao carried out public land reform, he dedicated his 20,000 mu of fertile land to the country. Zhao Jiaren offered not 20,000 mu. The Jiaozhi, Champa, and Siam he obtained through expanding territory. Just in the situation of the Song Dynasty, Zhao Jiaren turned millions of mu of land under his name and under the name of the Navigation Guild into state-owned land. Wen Liangrong dared to accuse Sima Kao, and all officials, including Wen Liangrong, did not dare to accuse Zhao Jiaren of morality.

More importantly, through the success in Jiaozhi, Chameng and Siam, Zhao Jiaren officially made these officials understand that he raised that state-owned land is not a matter of economic interests, but a matter of major national policies. The Song Dynasty was a country ruled by officials, so officials were very clear that they could be incompetent people and could fill their own pockets when implementing policies, but they could not use personal gain as a reason to oppose national policies. This is a basic moral issue.

The officials who had land at home closed their lips, and they knew that if they started to participate in the discussion, they agreed to some extent that "land can be state-owned".

Looking at the officials, Zhao Jiaren did not speak immediately. His eyes glanced at his own people. Judging from his expression, the attitude of these guys was calm and did not show any obvious objection. With the gaze, Zhao Jiaren spoke again. Because of the moisturizing of tea, his voice seemed very clear. As soon as Zhao Jiaren spoke, everyone held their breath and concentrated, afraid that they would miss a word.

"Before, Jiangnan Fourth Road carried out public land reform, so this time, this time, this time, the four roads should be state-owned. You can avoid other roads."

The sound of gasping for a cold breath sounded, and a breath of breath from his chest caused some movement similar to a storm in the conference hall of the Political Affairs Hall.
