Not to mention Chen Qun, even Liu Beifang's senior officials in the conference room looked at each other in confusion. Only Li Ru and Jia Xulue, who had the most experience in governing, had some ideas.
The rest are Xi Zhicai, Guo Jia and others. Although their IQs are absolutely fine, their horizons are limited and they are not very clear.
After all, when they first came into contact with government affairs, they were in the hands of Wang Xuan. Before that, they mostly just studied. If they don't stand in that position, they will never have that kind of experience.
"Yes, it remains unchanged!" Wang Xuan said with a solemn and upright expression: "From a macro perspective, since the founding of the Han Dynasty, and after Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the entire Han Dynasty has not changed at all. Do you agree with this?"
As soon as Wang Xuan finished speaking, the conference room fell into silence. Everyone began to think, but Chen Qun was a little confused. What is the macro?
"Jushou, explain to him what macroeconomics is."
When Wang Xuan said this, Chen Qun felt very embarrassed. He prided himself on being an unparalleled scholar.
"The population has been fluctuating around 50 million since it reached its peak after Hanwu. The high and low are just due to natural disasters."
"Economy, the imperial tax revenue remains basically unchanged every year. That is to say, whether it is grain output or salt, iron, horses, silk, hemp, etc., it remains unchanged. For more than three hundred years, as the ruling family, Chao Zhongxun
Gui, the local gentry, has not made any political achievements."
"Technology, the key factor that can bring further productivity, is even more shameful. Let alone progress, it is far inferior to the Spring and Autumn Period. Basic optical principles and mechanical principles have been completely abandoned, and mathematics has also been completely abandoned.
no progress."
"Infrastructure, okay, this is even more embarrassing. In the entire 400 years of the Han Dynasty, how many new cities were built? How many miles of roads? The best roads turned out to be the foundation of the Qin Dynasty, which was the Great Wall to resist the prairie people.
, it is also thanks to the Qin Dynasty, you must know that the Qin Dynasty is called the violent Qin by you."
"As a result, the entire Han Dynasty lived peacefully on Chidao and the Great Wall, which were the most criticized areas of Qin Dynasty. It's really ironic."
When Wang Xuan said this, Liu Bei's face became very embarrassed. I inherited a big man. Can you please be merciful?
Wang Xuan looked at Liu Bei and smiled nonchalantly, "The King of Han doesn't have to be like this. To be honest, it was never the emperor who controlled the affairs of the Han Dynasty. The emperor was basically ignored."
"Either the scholar-bureaucrats or the relatives have taken advantage of the emperor, not to mention the eunuchs. If the eunuchs were really that capable, I'm afraid they would not be happy to burst out of the coffin."
"Well, the real situation is that for a family like the Chen Qun family that has been passed down for generations, the really powerful relatives are also from the family, from the three ministers and nine ministers of the imperial court to the local governor, so even if the emperor of our Han Dynasty wants to do something for himself,
It’s very difficult to accept responsibility.”
"Unless you are an extraordinary figure like Emperor Gaozu or Emperor Wu, it is completely impossible to suppress these aristocratic families to realize your political ambitions."
Let me say something here: Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was given a posthumous title, and his temple name was Shizong. According to the "Posthumous Law Interpretation", the posthumous title is called Wu to be strong and rational, to be powerful and virtuous, to be strong and virtuous, to be able to control disasters and chaos.
To punish the people and overcome them is called Wu; to praise one's ambitions and make them poor is called Wu.
There are mixed reviews and criticisms, and the final praise for having too many ambitions means that one has to resort to violence even if one has too few steps to do so.
In contrast, the latitude and longitude of heaven and earth is called Wen, the morality is profound and profound is called Wen, the diligent in learning and asking questions is called Wen, the kindness and love for the people is called Wen, the simple people and the courtesy are called Wen, and the title of Ximin is called Wen. These are the serious posthumous titles.
Obviously, after the death of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the aristocratic families that were the real rulers took a counterattack against Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.
"As a wealthy family that actually controls the operation of the entire Han Dynasty, it has made no achievements or even declined in terms of population, technology, economy, and infrastructure. Isn't this a typical example of being unable to do anything and not having enough to eat?
What else do such a bunch of losers do?"
"Is there still a shortage of trash in the world? If you grab a lot of these things, the imperial court will be full and full. I'll keep them for you!"
Every time Wang Xuan said something, Chen Qun's face became uglier, changing from blue to red. When Wang Xuan said they were trash, it turned completely dark.
He could tolerate everything else, and Chen Qun didn't bother to refute. After all, such nonsense as population, technology, and economy, in the final analysis, no one valued these things.
At least they don't take a fancy to it, and presumably, His Majesty the Emperor doesn't take a fancy to it either. Isn't it that what the Emperor takes a fancy to is that the world is peaceful? As long as the country is stable, the devil doesn't care about bullshit population, technology, etc.
But the only thing he couldn't admit was that this was not to deny the legitimacy and correctness of the emperor and the nobles' management of the world.
"If there are no nobles to guard the heaven, how can the world be peaceful? Can we expect the emperor to rule the world alone?"
"What's more, the rise and fall of the world cannot simply be left in the hands of one person." Chen Qun said, bowing to Liu Bei and continuing: "No one can guarantee that the emperor will be wise and powerful, and the things involved in governing the world are complicated.
It cannot be decided by one person. If the rise and fall of the world is pinned on the emperor, it would be a blessing for all the people if the emperor is a saint. But if the emperor is just an ordinary person or is ignorant and incompetent, it will be a disaster for the world."
"So, what's wrong with the nobles assisting the emperor in governing the world? One person will make mistakes, but if there are many people, someone will eventually make up for it. Only in this way can the world be long-term and peaceful, and the country be long-lasting."
"The world has always been like this. Isn't it true that under the King of Han there are talented national teachers who hold all the power?" At this point, Chen Qun did not forget to provoke.
"Bah bang bang." Wang Xuan clapped his hands with a smile on his face and said, "Chen Wenchang is right. Our master is indeed talented, omniscient and omnipotent."
How shameless is it for someone to brag and boast in public? Chen Qun's eyes widened in disbelief.
"But..." Wang Xuan looked around the crowd, and finally saw Liu Bei's face, "It's not necessary to have all the power. If you can give me less trouble and let Wen Ting stay at home, that would be great!"
"Hahahaha." Everyone laughed.
Chen Qun frowned. He really couldn't understand Wang Xuan's position in Liu Bei's group.
"Of course the emperor cannot rule the world by himself. This is true." Wang Xuan nodded in agreement.
"There is nothing wrong with leaving it to you nobles to manage. The key is that your management is good!" Wang Xuan spread his hands, "This is such a great Han Dynasty, and you have to completely manage it. The emperor is dead, and you just call it
Come up with such an answer sheet?"
"Shouldn't such management be completely fired?" Wang Xuan turned to Mi Zhu and asked: "Zizhong, let me ask you, you gave a monopoly industry to a team to manage, and in the end,
If it goes bankrupt, will you bring this team back to continue managing the new industry?"
"Of course not." Mi Zhu said subconsciously, and then glanced at Chen Qun sheepishly. It was so embarrassing that her brother-in-law had tricked her.
"Then according to the rules, how should the team deal with this team that has completely ruined the industry?"
"Uh..., it depends on the specific situation." Mi Zhu didn't know how to answer.
"What if this team completely exaggerated the industry, but each of them made hundreds of millions of dollars on their own?" Wang Xuan continued to ask with a sneer.
"Then, we can only follow the family law." Mi Zhu sighed, thinking about it, those nobles who completely praised the Han Dynasty really deserved to die.
If the people below ruined their own property and enriched their own pockets, then I would definitely kill their whole family and confiscate their property.
Not to mention Mi Zhu, everyone else here also agrees with this point. Although there is no comparison between governing the world and family business, the principle is the same.
What's more, this big man is the best in the world. There are no foreign enemies in this world. The so-called grassland diseases are really just ringworm and scabies.
What industry can be compared with the entire Han Dynasty?
So, when I think about it, it is really useless to think that the industry of an invincible world can be wiped out by this group of nobles, and the whole family is screwed to death...
Well, they themselves are getting fatter.
Thinking of this, Zhang Fei, Guan Yu, Zhao Yun and other people who came from poor backgrounds and could not belong to the noble family looked at Chen Qun in a different way.
Damn it, it turns out that all my sufferings are caused by these gangsters!
However, if it weren't for these gangsters, we wouldn't be where we are today, so... we should kill them all to avoid trapping our descendants in the future.
Chen Qun blushed, and the veins on his forehead popped out, and argued, "Governing the world cannot be considered useless...can governance, the affairs of the nobles, be considered useless?"
