Chapter 3727 General trend

Ace conducted a "Respect Speech" that pointed out the direction of trade and established a trade route based on mutual respect, and the basis of mutual respect is self-reliance.

For aristocrats, self-improvement is just right. In the era of monopoly of knowledge, there are many stories within the aristocracy that encourage their descendants to strive for self-improvement. The aristocrats are definitely the first group of people in the world to strive for self-improvement and have rich experience in self-improvement. Therefore,

The nobles believed that Ace's speech was a compromise to the nobles.

"Very good, Ace has also realized who the real master of the sea is. Why do we become nobles? It's because our ancestors strive for self-improvement. Why are civilians civilians? It's because they don't know how to strengthen themselves at all, they only wait for others to arrange it.

Good everything. It is actually very simple to rule ordinary people. Just give them a bridge built with beautiful slogans and let them walk happily. Then we take off the bridge and let them fall into the abyss. What is really difficult to handle are those

The low-level nobles are always staring at us."

Ordinary people's attitude towards the big nobles is that of a man, while the low-level nobles think that the big nobles are the ones I can replace.

The rise of grass is the greatest threat to the great nobles.

In the eyes of the great nobles, "Respect Speech" is Ace's compromise, while in Cao Mang's view, it is Ace's declaration of war on the great nobles. Cao Mang thinks that these well-dressed and well-off nobles do not understand what self-improvement is.

Self-improvement means getting things done at the lowest cost. Cao Mang and the big aristocrats do the same thing. Cao Mang only needs to eat well, but the big aristocrats also need to eat well, so the cost is different. Cao Mang can do things at a lower cost.

It’s called self-improvement, and high-cost guys like the great nobles should be eliminated.

The nobles believed that the "Respect Speech" was beneficial to them, while Cao Mang believed that the speech was to encourage him.

So both sides began to strengthen themselves.

Du Lan smiled. This is just like the imperial examination. Rich families think that they are rich and have better teachers, so the imperial examination is beneficial to them. But the poor families think that it is just about studying. If they are hanging on to their own merits, they don't believe that they can't study in a wealthy family.

In the past, compared with fighting, nobles had six arts and learned swordsmanship. But ordinary people had no fear of death, so why should they fear death? After ordinary people passed through religious organizations, they completely suppressed the nobles. The nobles could dance with guns and swords again, and their physical strength was limited. In the end,

It is better to choose the imperial examination. In the imperial examination, the nobility still has many advantages.

When the nobles cannot monopolize knowledge and do not have an advantage in force, they will choose other ways of playing games. Therefore, Huang Chao still takes the greatest credit, after all, it makes the wealthy realize that their advantage has disappeared.

The game on the sea is still going on. Ace's attitude towards the navy is to be patient as long as the navy does not threaten his core interests. The most important thing now is to build your own system. Once it succeeds and there are winners, even in the end

If the navy wins, some people will implement the pirate model.

Ace knows very well that if a system is proven to be achievable, then some people will practice it. For example, the parliamentary system in ancient Greece, even if history proves the shortcomings of the parliamentary system, because it can be practiced, some people will accept it. Because the parliamentary system in ancient Greece was very good.

The land suppressed the tyrants, which was a good way for the nobles to fight against the king.

So even though ancient Greece perished, the nobility still dug the Parliament out of the dust.

In fact, ancient Rome also had a parliamentary system, and the inheritance of Rome had a beginning and an end. It started with the royal era, then the republican era, then the imperial era, and then split...

The Roman Republic had a parliamentary system, but it was eliminated with the development of Rome. It was eliminated because the parliamentary system was a management method that allowed citizens to degenerate into free people. In the imperial era, Rome was a feudal system, and the feudal system was a

A management method that turns freemen into citizens.

Why did Rome move out of the Republican era? It was because more people became Romans. When it came to management, Rome would inevitably enter three levels of management, and it would begin to enfeoff.

After the reform of Rome, you could become a Roman as long as you joined the army, which greatly improved the strength of Rome. But then a problem arose. Many Romans were not directly managed by the Roman Parliament at all.

Just like the Qin Dynasty implemented the county system, which was later followed by the Han Dynasty, as more and more people became Han Chinese, the management of the county system was no longer enough. The counties developed from 36 counties in the Qin Dynasty to 103 counties.

Three times. It was too difficult for the emperor to manage 103 county officials at once, so 13 states were set up. The emperor managed 13 people, and the 13 people then managed 103 people. This was more convenient.

Then there is a problem with the 13 state pastors. Why don't you become the emperor yourself?

The emperor was deposed.

The same problem existed in ancient Rome. In the beginning, Parliament could manage the land, but as the land grew larger and larger, it could no longer control it. Instead, interest representatives emerged from various places, that is, people like Caesar, who had a large number of Romans under their command.

, and does not accept the management of parliament.

So Caesar and the others would wonder why they should listen to the parliament? Rome entered the imperial era. However, the emperor could not control so many places, so the four emperors co-ruled, and finally the east and west were divided. The Eastern Roman Empire found a monotheistic religion and proposed the divine right of kings.

The concept stabilized the emperor's status and entered the feudal era.

Therefore, the process of imperial system and enfeoffment is that there are more and more Romans and more and more Han people.

In the parliamentary system, there are fewer and fewer Romans, because only in this way can the status of members become more and more stable.

The emergence of tyrants will allow more people to become Greeks and further strengthen the parliament. After the tyrants disappear, the parliamentary system will allow more Greeks to become free citizens.

Because the parliamentary system means all parties compete for resources to maintain their own advantages, and the resources flowing in society are becoming more and more concentrated, so the life of the Romans will naturally become worse and worse.

Enfeoffment is actually to fix the resources, which can protect the status of the Romans well. The nobles cannot over-extract resources, because the number of Romans does not change much, and the Romans cannot be upgraded, nor can they be demoted easily.

.

If the emperor takes power, he will have to consider how to solve the problem of three-level management and being left out. The territory of counties and counties is too large, and there must be a management class for states, roads, roads, etc. How to restrict them becomes the emperor's consideration

The problem.

In the Age of Discovery, a large number of resources were discovered, and the parliamentary system was revived. The nobles once again entered the stage of robbing resources and looked for ways to preserve value. At first, the nobles invested in works of art, then tulips and other things. Through extensive investment,

Finally found a new direction for industry.

The development of science and technology has a lot of luck, because after the nobles obtained a large amount of resources, they invested in many things in order to preserve their value. Technology is just one of many investments.

It’s not that Westerners are like gods and have a unique vision to fall in love with technology at a glance. In fact, they have invested in many, many things.

One of the characteristics of the parliamentary system is that it frantically grabs resources. Once they grab resources, they hope to establish their own areas of advantage, and there are all kinds of investment areas.

In the end, technology came to the fore, and many nobles followed suit. Not everyone developed industry from the beginning. For example, Tsarist Russia developed industry very late. They all saw the sun never set and made achievements before investing in it.

Of course, as the dividends of the great voyages were used up, the drawbacks of the parliamentary system emerged, which would allow more Romans to become free citizens. In the past, there were resources in the New World that could be exploited, and the parliament could divide the majority and still maintain the lives of the Romans.

But as the dividend disappeared and Parliament continued to rob resources, it could only rob the resources of the Romans.

There is only one way to solve this problem, feudalism. That is to fix the identity of each class. In this way, although there is no way to upgrade, at least it will not be easily downgraded. As long as the obligations are completed, it is not difficult to maintain Roman identity.

Rome has an obvious development trajectory, so Westerners cannot criticize the Roman parliament. They can only criticize the parliament of ancient Greece, but they cannot explain why ancient Greece disappeared in the end.
