Take the warehouse back to the end of the Ming Dynasty

After the world is pacified, I will set aside five years. During these five years, I dare not say how rich the world will be, but it can make the people of the world no longer live in fear, so that the people of the world will not live in fear. No matter how afraid of those corrupt officials and officials and excessive taxes, let the people of the world live and work in peace and contentment.

When I attack the West and overseas, I will never impose excessive taxes on the people for this reason.The strength of the country should not be based on the suffering of the people. I will do my best to minimize the negative impact of the war on the people. " Zhao Wenyu said earnestly.

Regarding Liu Wenzhong's doubts, Zhao Wen did not have any dissatisfaction.Liu Wenzhong didn't come from later generations, because of the limitations of the times, he didn't understand some things deeply, and Zhao Wen could understand these things.

"But five years is really too short!" Liu Wenzhong persuaded.

"Five years is not short, it is not short.

Do you know why I built so many factories in Xuanzhen?Why do I still let Song Yingxing develop tanks?Why did I let Sun Yuanhua build factories in various places?

Do you think I am only for the benefits brought by the factory?But do you know how many factories in Xuanzhen are losing money?Among other things, let's take ironworks as an example. How much steel can the private sector buy?The steel produced is basically used by me to lay railways and other places.

However, the monthly wages of the workers in the ironworks will not be short of them. "

Zhao Wen paused, took a deep breath, and then said: "Do you know how much benefit a factory can bring to the people? As the head of the Council, I believe you also know how many people in Xuan Town today rely on these Factories make a living.

The things produced by these factories, for now, can only be used by our army. As for the people, how much can they consume?With the war, the war materials will increase, and the war materials will increase, and the factories will have to work overtime in production, and the scale will inevitably increase.

By then, the factory will certainly expand.At that time, manpower will be needed to build the factory, and manpower will be needed in the factory.

The common people will also find jobs because of the increase in war materials, and the wages will not be less.With wages, people's lives will improve.

With the victory of overseas wars, the territory will become larger and larger, and it will be a huge fortune to sell the daily necessities produced overseas.

The cotton cloth produced by the factory is of good quality, and the cost is also very low. In addition, the glass products, silk ceramics and tea produced by the factory will definitely be sold overseas.

The wealth contained in these things is much more than that earned by launching a few wars. "

Zhao Wen stopped in front of Liu Wenzhong, talking about his views.

Hearing Zhao Wen's voice, Liu Wenzhong felt a huge wave in his heart.

Liu Wenzhong never thought that war could bring so many things. Although Liu Wenzhong had followed Zhao Wen for a long time, it was the first time he heard Zhao Wen's theories about Zhao Wen's theories.

Before that, Zhao Wen had never told him these theories.

Liu Wenzhong never thought that the war would be like this, not only did not lose money, but also made money.

In Liu Wenzhong's impression, from ancient times to the present, wars have always cost money, and fighting as little as possible.

Liu Wenzhong thought about it, and suddenly felt that something was wrong, and sweat began to flow from his forehead.

If this is the case, then the whole world, for the sake of huge interests, will definitely start wars non-stop.

Although Liu Wenzhong has never been in business, he understands that no one can calm down after getting used to making quick money.There is no difference between this mode of war and business in essence, and even this kind of war has become a kind of business.

Turning war into business is something Liu Wenzhong never dared to think about.Turning war into a business makes Liu Wenzhong feel horrible just thinking about it.

It is easy to go from frugal to extravagant, but difficult to go from extravagant to frugal. Liu Wenzhong still understands these simple truths.

Liu Wenzhong is afraid that one day, this country will be dragged into the abyss because of this model.

Liu Wenzhong raised his head and looked at Zhao Wen, "Your Majesty, if this is true, the whole world will go crazy because of this model.

At that time, for the sake of huge interests, the whole country will inevitably start wars non-stop.At that time, I am afraid that all people will focus on their own interests and forget about moral integrity.

At that time, if you want to restrain them, it will not be possible to do it with simple laws.At that time, this group of warmongers will definitely coerce the country into continuously launching wars, turning war into a business to make a fortune.

Under the obsession with profit, no one can stop, and everyone will be crazy because of this way of making quick money. When the time comes, no one in the country will be able to calm down.

Your Majesty, I don't dare to think about such a scene, I really don't dare to think about it.That would be a scene where the ceremony collapses and the joy breaks down, I really dare not think about it.

Your Majesty, this method is not advisable.If it is to eliminate those threats, I agree.But if His Majesty turns war into a business, I absolutely cannot agree.

From ancient times to the present, war is war, and war can only be war. "

Zhao Wen did not answer, but recalled the country where the industrial revolution first appeared.

Isn't that the reason why the steaming country grew into an empire on which the sun never sets?

Chapter 680 Let Sun Chuanting Go Home

"What you said is very reasonable. Once people get used to making quick money, they can no longer settle down to work normally." Zhao Wen stood in front of Liu Wenzhong and kept nodding.

"But, have you ever thought about a question?" Zhao Wen turned around and looked at Liu Wenzhong.

"Have you ever wondered why this land has never changed from the Qin and Han Dynasties to the present?"

"What does Your Majesty mean by this? I don't understand!" Liu Wenzhong didn't know what Zhao Wen said about this piece of land that has never changed.

"The way of life, the way of production. From the Qin and Han Dynasties to the present, the people on this land have always been working at sunrise and resting at sunset. They are farming in the fields day after day, and they don't even have time to appreciate the stars in the sky. .

Moreover, even if they worked so hard, they hardly had a few full meals.Most people in this land have never left their hometown from birth to grave.Many people spend their entire lives in poverty and work hard, hoping that hard work can make their lives better.

But what was the result?Are they doing well?The people are too close to death, so close that there is only one flood or one drought.

The people have never been really rich since the Qin and Han Dynasties. They have always been poor. I want the people to live better.Even if we continue to wage wars for this, as long as the people can live better. " Zhao Wen said.

"Your Majesty's idea is certainly good, but if you really turn war into a business, then sooner or later you will be backlashed by this business.

Moreover, the people work at sunrise and rest at sunset, and the family is happy and prosperous, isn't it just right? "Liu Wenzhong asked back.

Zhao Wendao: "War is a double-edged sword. The key is to see who uses this double-edged sword. If this double-edged sword can be used well, it will bring huge benefits. This benefit is so huge that it can change the entire world. The world. If it is not used properly, it will drag the world into the abyss.

However, we can't give up eating because of choking. At present, the world needs war, and I need the value generated by war to transform the whole world.It is impossible to complete the transformation of the world by relying on domestic strength alone, and must rely on external forces. "

The power needed to promote the development of society is huge, let alone promote the current Ming Dynasty?

If only relying on domestic strength, Zhao Wen may not be able to realize his ideals in his entire life, so he must fight abroad.

Didn’t the country where the industrial revolution started completed its social transformation precisely because of the continuous war?

This piece of land is much larger than that country, and the population is several times larger.It took a hundred years for that country to complete the transformation, let alone China now.

"Okay, let's stop here today, don't say any more. I understand what you said, but I can't give up sending troops overseas just yet." Zhao Wen waved his hand and said calmly.

"By the way, hasn't Sun Chuanting surrendered to the new dynasty?" Zhao Wen suddenly thought of Sun Chuanting whom he hadn't heard from for a long time.

Since Sun Chuanting was captured by Zhao Wen, he was brought to Xuanzhen by Zhao Wen.Although he was still held in a big prison, Sun Chuanting's cell was much better. Both the environment and the food were very good.

Sun Chuanting is a capable person, so Zhao Wen wanted to persuade him to surrender and let him be used by himself.

However, Sun Chuanting has nothing but tough bones, and he is unwilling to surrender to Zhao Wen no matter what.

Even if Zhao Wen brought before him the evidence that Chongzhen said that he had absconded on the battlefield, he did not surrender to Zhao Wen.

It's just that his loyalty to Chongzhen was shaken, and he didn't surrender to Zhao Wen for this reason.

"Your Majesty, not yet. Sun Chuanting is unwilling to submit to the new dynasty no matter what he says. At the beginning, Sun Chuanting cursed every time he saw someone sent by the minister.

Although I don't scold so much now, I still haven't let up. "Liu Wenzhong shook his head, embarrassed.

"Did Sun Chuanting's family take over from the capital?" Zhao Wen asked again.

After capturing Sun Chuanting, Zhao Wen asked spies all over the capital to bring Sun Chuanting's family back.

It's just that as soon as things were arranged, Zhao Wen started to deal with the war against Huguang and Shandong, and didn't pay too much attention to this matter.

Liu Wenzhong said: "Your Majesty, they have been brought back a long time ago. But even so, Sun Chuanting has not surrendered. The minister asked the imperial court to demote him before and tried to persuade him, but he just refused to surrender."

When Liu Wenzhong mentioned Sun Chuanting, he got a headache. This is the hardest court official he has seen so far.

Zhao Wen frowned, and said slowly: "In that case, let him go and let him go back to his hometown."

For Sun Chuanting, Zhao Wen still has some respect in his heart.

Therefore, in dealing with Sun Chuanting's matter, Zhao Wen did not send them to Japan or Java like other officials who surrendered.

"Your Majesty, just let it go like this? Sun Chuanting is not comparable to others. This man has the ability to lead the army. What should he do if he returns to his hometown to confuse the local people and fight against the new dynasty?" Liu Wenzhong With wide eyes, he looked at Zhao Wen with disbelief.

Zhao Wen shook his head, "Fight against the new dynasty? Impossible, even if he has the heart, he can't recruit enough soldiers and horses. What's more, now that the world is almost settled, are you still afraid of Sun Chuanting? Just do as I say! "

"Obey!" Liu Wenzhong stood up, bowed in salute, and then retreated.

Early the next morning, the prison in the west of Xuanzhen City opened its doors.

The large prison in the west of Xuanzhen Town is not very large, and it is mainly used to detain criminals with relatively high status.

Sun Chuanting wore a very simple padded jacket and walked out of the prison gate.

As soon as he walked out of the gate, the door behind him creaked shut.

Sun Chuanting let out a long breath, with a sad face.

"Da Ming!!!" Sun Chengzong shook his head, then walked forward without looking back.

After walking a few steps, Sun Chuanting saw several familiar figures.

"Father!" came a familiar voice.

Sun Chuanting looked up and saw his son Sun Shirui, his wife and several familiar servants standing on the side of the street, looking towards him.

The corners of Sun Chuanting's eyes were moist. He took two quick steps and held Sun Shirui and his wife in his arms.

"Husband, you have suffered!" Sun Chuanting's wife, Mrs. Zhang, hugged Sun Chuanting and cried bitterly.

After a long time, Sun Chuanting let go of the two, "How are you doing recently?"

"Father is suffering, and the baby and mother are doing well recently!" Sun Shirui nodded, wiping the tears from the corners of his eyes.

"Okay, that's good, that's good. Let's go home!" After Sun Chuanting said, he held their hands and walked forward.

At this moment, several strong men appeared in front of Sun Chuanting.

Sun Chuanting stepped forward, blocked the two of them behind him, and glared at the front, "What? Does Zhao thief want to kill us? We are here now, come on!"

"Misunderstood, Mr. Sun misunderstood!" The leading man hurriedly put on a smile. "We are following His Majesty's will to escort Mr. Sun home!"

"Hmph, the old man will go back, go back and tell Bandit Zhao that the old man does not accept his favor!" Sun Chuanting scolded.

"Mr. Sun, Your Majesty has no malicious intentions. Your Majesty just asked us to escort Mr. Sun to the train station in Xuanzhen, and send Mr. Sun to the train station to Daizhou City." The leading man hurriedly said.

"Hmph, I don't take his train, even if I walk back on foot, I won't take his train." Sun Chuanting didn't appreciate it at all.

The leading man said: "Mr. Sun, don't, if you really go back, we will be in trouble."

"What does your misfortune have to do with this old man?" Sun Chuanting glared at them, and then led his son and wife away in big strides.

Looking at Sun Chuanting who left, a man asked, "What should we do now?"

"What else can I do? Go directly to the train station and buy a train ticket for Sun Chuanting in advance. Seriously, why is this person so stubborn? Which of the officials who surrendered to us can be treated like him? I really don't understand!" The leader The man shook his head and headed for the train station with his entourage.

Sun Chuanting said that walking back was just an angry remark. If he really walked back, it would be a hundred and eight thousand miles, and he didn't know that he would go to the year of the monkey just by relying on them.

Before Sun Chuanting left the cell, the steward in the cell packed the necessary luggage for Sun Chuanting according to Zhao Wen's instructions, and also stuffed some silver dollars inside, but Sun Chuanting didn't take it at all.

"Father, go back to your residence first, and bring your luggage." Sun Shirui looked at his father and said.

Sun Chuanting stopped and frowned, "They all belong to Thief Zhao, what are you doing with them?"

"Father, no, these are all brought back from the capital, and many things are at home. When I went out today, I had already packed these things, but because there were too many, I didn't bring them with me." Sun Shirui replied .

"Oh, at home. Now that the imperial court is gone, where is there a home?" Sun Chuanting looked melancholy.

"Husband, when I was in the capital, when the news of your defeat and death came, I didn't know what to do.

Not long after this news came, His Majesty said that you were defeated and feigned death, and absconded and disappeared.Not only did they fail to consider your merits, but they also punished you for your crimes.They even sent Jin Yiwei to arrest us and put us in imperial prison.

At that time, all the servants in the mansion were scared and ran away, leaving only us orphans, widows and a few loyal servants. "

When Sun Chuanting's wife, Mrs. Zhang, recalled her days in the capital, she felt terrified for a while.

"Just before Jin Yiwei arrested us, Xuanzhen's spies in the capital came to the door. They said, you are still alive, and they were sent by you. I didn't think about it, so I followed them. I found out later that They are Xuanzhen's spies."

Sun Chuanting said: "What are you doing with these words? This is already in the past tense!"

To be honest, Chongzhen's actions really chilled Sun Chuanting, and it was still the kind of chilling.

But Sun Chuanting was a man of integrity after all, even though Chongzhen treated him like this, he still did not choose to submit to Zhao Wen.

To some extent, Sun Chuanting is worthy of Chongzhen.

Whether in history or now, Sun Chuanting is worthy of Chongzhen.On the contrary, Chongzhen was sorry for Sun Chuanting.

"Okay, don't say these words, hurry up and go home with your luggage!" Sun Chuanting said, and walked forward quietly.

Along the way, Sun Chuanting was sullen, not knowing what he was thinking.

When he got the luggage and walked out of the residence, Sun Shirui asked, "Father, are we really going back to Daizhou City?"

"Xuanzhen has a train that travels thousands of miles a day. When I was brought to Xuanzhen by Zhao thief, although I took it, I didn't feel it well at that time.
