As soon as Long Lin finished speaking, he unexpectedly attracted sneers from all the ministers.
Hahaha......
"Your Highness, the teacher we hired in our mansion cost our money."
"As for teachers, they just teach our children. If they were put into a school, do you think it would be the same?"
...
"That's right, Your Highness, as long as the imperial court does not prohibit the matter of asking Mr. Shu, as long as the people have the ability, they can do it."
...
"You are absolutely right. There are so many officials in the world that they are already redundant. If there are more students, how will the court arrange these people?"
"Your Highness, don't you know that the dream of students all over the world is to reach high school one day and completely change their destiny?"
...
Long Lin felt helpless after hearing this.
He simply said something stupid. What he thought was right, but the facts were obviously wrong.
Putting students together is a good thing for ordinary people, but for the powerful, this is obviously not a good thing.
Another point is human nature. They don’t hope that most people can become talented. On the contrary, they hope that the fewer people, the better.
In this way, their descendants can always stand at the top of the world, while most ordinary people can still only run around in the fields.
That's why they set the school fees so high.
Then it is said that it is so that the world's food can be increased. Anyone can figure out what is going on, but people all have selfish motives.
In many places, there are no schools at all. They are just people who did not go to high school and became teachers.
This is the fact, so these people can never change by relying on their words.
There are some things that can only be done by doing, but cannot be solved by talking. These are just simple things to study.
If land is involved and you want these people to hand it over and distribute it to the people, then there is no need to say anything.
I'm afraid it's no different than taking the lives of these people.
Suddenly, at this moment, Long Lin seemed to have thought of a lot, but he also understood deeply that this problem would always be a dead end.
It's like putting a huge cake there, and the people on top can eat most of it, while the people on the bottom can only eat a little.
It’s not that the people above don’t know, they understand it very well, but the cake is only so big. If others eat more, they will naturally get less.
And human nature is that they want to control most of the cake in their hands, and then continue to reduce the possibility of most people eating the cake, or even give no chance at all, just to allow most people to live.
If they have the strength, they can guide the rules. Unless there are irresistible factors, their ideas will never change.
And what he can do in the world is far from being as simple as imagined.
He can only rely on his own ability to do a few things.
"My lords, what you said is really good. You have the aura of serving the country and the people above your head, but in private, you are always thinking about your own affairs."
"That's really nice to say. If the people have the ability, they can also ask for the husband. Isn't this something that the people can never achieve?"
"You don't want all the women in the world to go to school. You just want most of them to stay at home and become tools for childbearing while supporting their families and running around in the fields."
"Ordinary people want to make their children better, so they try their best to send them to your mansion, and then serve them as servants and maids."
"You are arrogant and talk about serving the country and the people, but in fact, have you ever really thought about the life and death of the people?"
"Afraid of less food, have you ever thought about it? How can we really make more food? Just think that if more people farm the land, more food will be available."
"If this is really the case? Why are there so many people in the world who still don't have enough to eat?"
"You are afraid that there will be more people studying, and that the court will have no place to accommodate them, but have you ever thought about adding some channels so that students who do not have high schools can have other choices?"
"It's not that you haven't thought about it, but you have thought about it very clearly."
"You were afraid that the people would leave the fields, so you tried every means to cut off all the people's roads so that they could only stay in the fields."
"What kind of fields are they staying in? Are they staying in your thousands of fertile fields?"
"They worked so hard, but in the end, you picked the fruits of their hard work, and then gave them a little bit of food, making them think that the only way to survive was to surrender to your hands."
"You do not regard them as common people, but as your tools."
"What's wrong with girls studying? What's wrong with me opening up schools to study? They can't go to high school. I can arrange for them to become teachers."
"They can't go to high school. I can arrange for them to become bridge engineers, hydraulic engineers, road engineers, pharmacists, cultivators, and smelters."
Long Lin said a lot at once, but actually he had no intention of convincing these people. He just wanted to tell his father these words.
He can understand what these people are thinking, but he will never let them get their wish. Sooner or later, he will make them suffer and cannot speak out.
"I know, are you trying to say that the people are short of food and clothing, and food is the foundation for the people in the world."
"I also clearly understand this. If you want to make more clothes, you must have enough clothes to make them."
"If the world can only produce one piece of clothing a year, let alone the common people, even you ministers will have to run around the streets naked."
"The reason why I established the Clothing Research Institute is to increase the production of clothes so that enough people can really have enough clothes to wear."
"You want to talk about food? Don't you?"
"With more food, it's not that complicated. There are more people in the world, and more land can be planted. People all have their own fields. If they cultivate it for themselves, the harvest of the fields will definitely increase."
"Doing it for others? And doing it for yourself? Is it the same?"
Hahaha......
After Long Lin finished speaking, he saw that all the ministers' expressions had changed.
The expressions of these people have become particularly ugly, and deep in their eyes, there is a faint fierce light.
Long Lin couldn't help laughing.
"Are you trying to say that there is only so much land in the world, how can there be land for most of the people?"
"The common people have one-third of an acre of land. As long as food is planted in the ground and the harvest is greater than ever before, it will be enough to feed the common people."
"But how can we become more? Then we need to change. What kind of crops do you use for farming? Do you use oxen on heavy land? Why not use hand planers?"
"Because you understand that when oxen plow the land, it can make the land soft, and then the seeds can be planted in the land, so that they can grow more lushly and have more harvests during the autumn harvest."
"But haven't you ever thought that if the number of cattle can increase, will there also be an increase in the number of cattle in the fields?"
"In that case, wouldn't the people's harvest be greater?"
