There were many foreigners in Yuandadu, and Yuandadu was the largest nationalized city in this era.
Bicycles are not uncommon here. Many people are riding bicycles on the street, which is completely different from other places. Trendy things are always the most popular.
"I heard that a foreigner came to Dadu and wrote a travelogue to introduce Dadu, saying that Dadu is full of gold." Zhao Min proudly introduced the center of the Yuan Dynasty.
"I'm afraid there are bones everywhere under this gold." Zhang Wuji retorted. He knew how people in other places, especially those in the old areas of the Southern Song Dynasty, lived. It was so miserable.
Zhao Min was not happy when she heard this, "That is only temporary. As long as we continue to develop, everyone will have enough food and clothing soon." She firmly believed that the current difficulties are just the pain of industrial development.
Du Lan said: "You two should stop fighting. You are from the same school and about the same age. You need to be friendly."
"Master, it's him who always speaks ill of the imperial court. We in Wudang have so much money because of the imperial court's good policies. I admit that the imperial court cannot let all the people live a good life, but this is only temporary and will not always be like this."
"Let's talk about silk. In the past, silk was only worn by rich families, but now silk is a very common commodity, which shows that the development is still good." Zhao Min's remarks were also reasonable, but he was more biased towards the imperial court.
Zhang Wuji didn't know how to refute. In his heart, the Yuan Dynasty had been persecuting Wudang for the sake of martial arts wealth. He was seriously injured by Xuan Ming when he was a child. Zhang Wuji never had any good impressions of such an unscrupulous court.
"Master, are you right what I said?" Zhao Min is already good at acting like a baby.
"Yes, that's not right either." "This court is not a court for the people. The people now only receive charity from the court. The real resources are all in the hands of the powerful people in the court. They have assets, land, and population.
They don't need to produce, but they can get the maximum profit, but only give it to the people of the world. If these don't change, then there will be no cure for the Great Yuan." In the final analysis, it is still profit distribution, when most of the wealth in the world is concentrated in the hands of a small number of people.
When this happens, it will naturally make most people unconvinced.
History keeps repeating itself, and even the ICBC revolution cannot change it.
Every time the world is initially settled, resources are relatively fairly distributed to most people. However, as time goes by, resources and wealth will continue to accumulate in the hands of a few people. When the wealth and land are almost annexed, then the world will be in chaos.
when.
War is a means of human self-regulation, and the reason why war can stimulate human potential and technological level is entirely because war is the most direct means of benefit distribution. Victory can directly benefit, and the temptation of Hongguoguo's benefits will naturally make people wring their hands.
Pursue victory wisely.
War is barbaric but efficient, and it is a competition for interests with the largest number of participants, so excellent ideas can naturally come to the fore in the shortest time.
After listening to Dulan's analysis, Zhang Wuji nodded immediately. Isn't that the reason? It's because officials are greedy and don't care about the lives of the people. That's right.
Zhao Min also knew this. Taking the property of their Ruyang Palace as an example, there were countless mulberry fields, several silk factories, and many domestic slaves. These domestic slaves were not paid and only had two meals, but they
Twelve hours of work to do.
But even so, the Ruyang Wang family's property is not the largest, and there are many dignitaries richer than Ruyang Wang.
It can be seen that the master is right, Zhao Min thought, it is true that the centenarian sees clearly. But if the rich and powerful are asked to hand over their wealth, I am afraid that none of them will be willing.
It seems that this is a dead end, and Zhao Min realizes for the first time that reality is so cruel.
"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. It has nothing to do with us. Now let's go rescue the people from the six major sects." "Zhao Min leads the way."
"Master, don't rush to save people. I have become a master and I have to let my father know. Let's go back to the house first and then save people." "As long as I am here, releasing people is not a matter of words." Zhao Min thought.
Let's go home first. She was bullied outside. At this time, she missed the warmth of home very much.
Dulan said: "Well, after coming all the way to Dadu, it is reasonable to visit an old friend."
"My father will be shocked when he sees the master." Zhao Minxin said that if his father knew that he had worshiped Wulin Shinhwa as his master, he would be so surprised that he would not be able to sleep or eat well.
However, when Zhao Min returned, she not only had to face her father's surprise, but also faced an arranged marriage. As the princess, her marriage was destined to be a deal.
King Ruyang really didn't expect that his daughter would become the apprentice they targeted for suppression. He was very angry. Why was he so helpless? Didn't he know that they and Wudang were incompatible with each other?
Zhao Min was stunned by her father's attitude and the shock of the arranged marriage. This was even scarier than being forced to become a disciple by Du Lan that night.
"Zhenzhen Zhang, the so-called harm to the family is not harmed. You threaten my daughter to join Wudang. Isn't it the behavior of a martial arts hero?" King Ruyang doesn't want people to know that his daughter is a disciple of Wudang. What if his political opponents find out?
When the time comes to read a book in front of the emperor saying that he secretly colluded with Wudang, his political career will be over, and he may even be sentenced.
Thinking of this, King Ruyang felt chills on his back. He believed that he was a thief because he was old and refused to die. Zhang Sanfeng was really vicious and insidious, and his heart was as vicious as a poisonous scorpion.
Dulan naturally knew what King Ruyang would think in his heart and how much he would hate himself. The more he hated him, the happier Dulan would be, and there was nothing the other party could do anyway.
"I only accept my disciples based on their qualifications and not their status. Zhao Min is a martial arts wizard who is rare to see in a hundred years. I can't bear to let her beauty be dusted, so I accept her as my disciple. In time, I will definitely give you a martial arts master." Dulan laughed.
The earth seems not to know what King Ruyang means.
"Zhang Sanfeng, don't go too far. Don't you still know what the relationship between your Wudang and my Ruyang Palace is? If people find out that my daughter is a disciple of Wudang, then the emperor will be furious and our family will suffer no good consequences.
Eat, don’t you know? You are so vicious!” King Ruyang was so angry that he almost lost his temper.
"Really? King Ruyang, I have always regarded you as an old friend."
"I'm just afraid that others will think we are friends?!" "My daughter will never accept you as her teacher. You can leave, or I won't be polite."
"It seems that you haven't been polite at all. You didn't greet me with good wine or food, and you didn't sweep the bed to welcome me. Do you, the Prince of Ruyang, call this polite?" Du Lan said that he did not feel the hospitality of the Prince of Ruyang at all.
The King of Ruyang saw that Dulan refused to take any advice, so he threw the tea cup in his hand on the ground and shouted: "Here comes someone!"
It turned out that the musketeers had been ambushed secretly. At this time, the musketeers filed out, pointing the black muzzles at Duran, and might shoot at any time.
"Zhang Sanfeng, you forced me to do this." King Ruyang originally didn't want to see blood, but now he has to see it even if he doesn't want to: "Even if you are a martial arts legend, you can't stop the gunfire."
Du Lan still sat there, as calm as the moon in a well: "If you don't kill me today, your end will be ugly."
"You are threatening me when you are about to die? Zhang Sanfeng, you are indeed a lunatic!"
