At this time, as long as Chen Xi acquiesces, these tenants who were once vassals of the aristocratic family will move to the northeast under the command of the aristocratic family.
At that time, even if the people want to scold their mother, they will not be able to blame Chen Xi and Liu Bei. There will be a large number of aristocratic families to share the people's grievances, and Chen Xi will later use the aristocratic families to redistribute land to the people.
Basically, at that time, the development of the Northeast Plains was a certainty, and both the common people and the aristocratic families had gotten what they should get, and the pressure on the government and internal conflicts would be alleviated.
So sometimes even if you have a good political strategy, you still have to be able to use it. Otherwise, even if you know that these things are beneficial, there is no way for the people to see the results. How can short-sighted ordinary people follow your footsteps?
.
What the people want is substantial benefits that can be seen with their own eyes. If it cannot be given to them, it will be paid back in a moment. As time goes by, then don't blame the original people for turning into unruly people.
"What does Zichuan have to teach our family?" Chen Shang said with a smile. After a series of in-depth exchanges, Chen Shang understood Chen Xi's attitude towards the family. It was not very good, but after all, he was still a son of the family.
, so I decided to listen to what Chen Xi said.
"I can't say teaching, just some suggestions. If your uncle is willing to listen, you can listen to it. If you don't want to, forget it." Chen Xi shook his head and said.
"Zichuan just says it straight away." Chen Shang said, looking at Chen Xi whose expression was almost unchanged.
"If the aristocratic family wants power to exist forever and privileges to exist by their side forever, then they must make sacrifices." Chen Xi looked at Chen Shang and said, "There will be rewards only if you pay. If you want to obtain these things reasonably, the aristocratic family
We must come up with corresponding things.”
"..." Chen Shang was silent. He could understand what Chen Xi was talking about, but how could the family always keep pace with the country? After all, there would always be times when the interests of the country and the interests of the family conflicted.
"You are wrong. In fact, the interests of the country and the interests of the family do not conflict." Chen Xi said calmly, "Although this requires the family to restrain their greed within a limit, I think this is better than using the entire family to gamble.
A certain expansion burst is much more stable."
"If the interests of the country and the interests of the family can be forever overlapped, we will not mind restraining our greed. No one is willing to use the entire family to gamble on that slim hope." Chen Shang said calmly, not being forced to do anything, which family can
Would you risk the whole family to die?
"That's good. In fact, I don't think you are stupid. Why haven't you seen through this problem for hundreds of years? In fact, the interests of the country and the interests of the family must be consistent. Just like now, the Taishan expansion family is also being dragged to expand." Chen Xi nodded.
He nodded, obviously a little casually.
Chen Shang didn't speak this time, but just listened to Chen Xi's words quietly. He didn't quite understand what Chen Xi said.
"Let's put it this way, the national government needs to account for one-third of its strength, the aristocratic family accounts for one-third of its strength, and His Majesty accounts for one-third of its strength. The world will actually be stable." Chen Xi didn't care whether Chen Shang could do it or not.
Understand, just explain it briefly.
"But most of the time it is impossible to be so fair, but as long as one party's strength is not greater than half, there is no problem. Even if one party's strength is greater than half, but everyone's goals are the same, it will not have any impact." Chen Xi's words made Chen Shang catch something.
Something, but I can’t think clearly about it.
"Actually, it doesn't make much sense to talk about this. Let's be clear. When will everyone's goal be the same?" Chen Xi looked at Chen Shang's thoughtful expression and asked a question.
"During the war, when striving to unify the world, both the aristocratic family and the monarch have the same purpose, because the unification of the world has the greatest benefit for both the aristocratic family and the monarch." Chen Shang took up the conversation and said, "Even
After that time we were able to live in harmony for decades."
"Isn't that right?" Chen Xi clapped his hands and said, "You and the country can actually keep pace with each other. Sometimes you die for your family and you also die for the country. You can obviously keep pace with each other."
"But after the war ends, the family and the country will gradually separate. As time goes by, the friendship left behind by helping each other will gradually be wiped out." Chen Shang calmly recounted what had been verified countless times.
In fact, national interests and family interests will conflict sooner or later.
"Haha, then why do you want to turn the battlefield internally and externally? You don't know how big the world is. Why don't you give it a try? Internally, conflicts will appear sooner or later. Externally, when has the Han Dynasty ever disappointed aristocratic families?
Why don't you rely on your strength to erode other countries, as long as you open up some joints of the Han Dynasty..."
There seemed to be infinite temptation in Chen Xi's calm voice at this moment. Chen Shang was frightened and at the same time, he couldn't help but give birth to countless daydreams. It is true that all four sides were vassals of the Han Dynasty, but how could the four sides fulfill their obligations as vassals?
It makes sense to deal with the other party.
"Although the aristocratic families in the Han Dynasty were strong, the country was even stronger, but what about those countries? I know that the strength of the Chen family is seven or eight, and five Chen families can conquer a small country and pay national protection fees.
, how much is the remaining profit?" Chen Xi calmly recounted the facts.
"The interests of the country and the interests of the family overlap. Even if they don't overlap, the protection fees actually paid also overlap, and the family has grown stronger. If necessary, the border troops can even be invited to take action to open up the entire joint, and even
Pull the entire line of people into the water and form a community." Before Chen Xi could speak, Chen Shang had already completed the following words.
[The aristocratic family still can’t change their core way of thinking, so let’s forget it and don’t force it. Let them go and let them do whatever they want. 】
Chen Xi was also helpless. He clearly didn't mean this, but the family understood it like this. What else could he say? Looking at Chen Shang's tone, he knew that the family had done this kind of thing before.
"No matter how you think, the aristocratic family is more realistic than the country. You must realize that what the aristocratic family needs is interests, and what the country needs is morality. When morality and interests conflict, you can directly take the lead." Chen Xi also said
Not wanting to explain what he said above, he continued speaking on his own.
"The virtues of aristocratic families are for their own people, and there is no need to pay attention to them for others. It is not wrong to say that they need interests. As for the conflict between national morality and interests, there are indeed many times, and there are some things that are difficult for the country to handle. We
It's easy to handle, but the problem is that the country can't trust us." Chen Shang also understood what Chen Xi said.
