Chapter 536 Send ore?

"Hundreds of years later, the emerging aristocracy will be banned by the old aristocrats. This shows that our emerging aristocrats and the reformers have a common enemy." Li Shanchang continued.

"There are still reformers?" The Huaixi nobles didn't understand, "Isn't the superior and Qin Yu the only ones advocating the New Deal? Why is there a reformer suddenly?"

"Reformists, will they be as ridiculous as the Zhedong Party?" said Sun Xingzu, a native of Huaixi.

"No." Li Shanchang said seriously, "the reformers are much stronger than the Zhedong Party. There are only a few literati in the Zhedong Party, and the reformers are all over the country. Those who benefited from the New Deal are all The reformers, they all support the Emperor and Qin Yu's new policies, and they have formed a force that cannot be underestimated."

"Among the reformers, there are officials selected from the Southwest. They became officials through Southwest Enke. They are all grateful for Qin Yu's kindness, so they also support the New Deal."

"Secondly, among the reformers, there are Jixia Academy, a hundred schools of thought."

"There are also businessmen from all over the country, and the group of people who have become rich under the New Deal, such as Shanxi coal bosses. Of course, there are also people all over the country who are full of food."

"So, Qin Yu and the emperor are not fighting alone."

"On the contrary, their power is getting bigger and bigger, so big that we can't compete. Of course, this is inevitable. If there is not a large number of supporters for the New Deal, it will not be able to go ahead."

"Although one of them is the emperor and the other is the principal of Jixia Academy, it is impossible for the two of them to be enemies of the whole world."

"Actually, the reformers, and some of us." At this moment, Cao Xin said suddenly.

"Who!?" The crowd froze when they heard the words: Could there be a traitor among them?
"For example, Hua Yunlong, even Hu Weiyong...and those Huaixi generals who are eager to gain military exploits." Cao Xin said, "Hua Yunlong is now the king of Korea. His Royal Highness conquered the Wa country, and he will go down in history as a military adviser."

"It is much more valuable to be famous in history for conquering the Wa Kingdom for the first time than being a prime minister."

Qin Yu's new policy, the most important one is to fight abroad.

Most of the generals who lead the army are from Huaixi. Once they get the chance to go out, they will get huge benefits.So they have absolutely no reason to hate Qin Yu, but to thank him instead.

Qin Yu, at most, let them lose their fiefdom and privileges.Compared with the establishment of outstanding military exploits, those fiefdoms and privileges seem a little insignificant.

The crowd fell silent for a moment, these nobles from Huaixi were actually not monolithic.Not all Huaixi nobles hated Qin Yu and wanted to kill him.

For example, Lan Yu, he doesn't hate Qin Yu.

What he wants to do the most right now is to get the chance to attack the southwestern countries.Obviously, without Qin Yu, the emperor would not have launched troops against the small southwestern countries.

If Wu Liang was planning to assassinate Qin Yu, if he found out, he would probably send someone to rescue him.

The nobles of Huaixi who regard Qin Yu as the enemy of life and death are only those generals who have no chance to go to war, and those civil servants.

"Is this why Li Xiang asked us to fall to the reformers?" The crowd asked, "But Qin Yu really made us lose our land and unable to grow our family."

"Land is actually not a very good thing." Li Shanchang said lightly.

"Isn't land such a good thing?" The crowd froze when they heard this.

Throughout the ages, the most precious things in this land of China are land and fertile fields.Having land means having food, and food is the foundation of everything.

After all, it is an agricultural society.

Moreover, with the land, houses can be repaired and built. Many tenants have no place to bury people after they die, because the land is not theirs, so in ancient times, many people sold their bodies to bury their fathers.

The biggest expense for them to bury their relatives is not the coffin, but the land.

After owning the land, they are landlords and nobles, and they can rely on the tenants to live and let the family prosper for generations.Therefore, the emperors of previous dynasties rewarded meritorious officials, basically they rewarded a few households.Li Shanchang's Shiyi has [-] households, which is equivalent to the land given to him by the emperor, and can support [-] tenant households.

In ancient times, there was the title of Marquis of Ten Thousand Households, which means that the emperor rewarded his courtiers with ten thousand households of food, which was the ceiling of the courtiers.

The idea that land is lifeblood has been deeply ingrained in people's minds.

But now, Li Shanchang actually told them that the land is not important?
"Do you know the Zheng family in Shanxi?" Li Shanchang asked without directly explaining to the crowd.

"Is it the family of Concubine Zheng?" the crowd said.As a local family, the Zheng family in Shanxi did not know it before.But now Concubine Zheng's daughter is going to marry Qin Yu, which has made the Zheng family famous in the capital.

"That's right." Li Shan said long, "The Zheng family used to rely on tenants and rent for a living, but now they are involved in the coal business. I heard that their daily income is equal to the grain output of the Zheng family's previous [-] acres of fertile land for a year."

"That's why Mr. Qin said that the income generated by land is actually the lowest among all industries."

"The coal business is so profitable?" Huaixi nobles couldn't believe their ears.The income of a coal mine in one day is equal to the output of a hundred acres of fertile land in a year?

What kind of scary number is this?

Such a number simply exceeded their cognition.They haven't experienced the wave of business before, and they haven't even heard of it, so such a thing, they can't even dream of.

If the coal business runs for a year, how much money will it earn! ! !

"After the Zheng family got the right to operate one of the three major coal mines in Shanxi, in just half a month, their life has changed from being poor to rich." Li Shanchang said.

Such a big change in half a month?Stars appeared in the eyes of the crowd.

"The Zheng family used to hate Qin Yu like other gentry, and tried every means to bring him down. But since they tasted the sweetness of the coal business, they can't wait to confess Qin Yu."

"And do you know that Zheng's coal mine was given by others!"

"Give a coal mine, a mountain of gold and silver to the Zheng family?" Cao Xin was dumbfounded when he heard this, "There are such stupid people in the world? Are those businessmen crazy?"

"They're not crazy. The newly rising businessmen who controlled the coal mine gave the coal mine to the Zheng family because of Qin Yu's face." Li Shan said long.

(It was actually a wise move for them to give the coal mine to Zheng's family. They were born as ordinary people, so they can't keep a large property, but if they can gain some relationship with Qin Yu...)
Many people have the ability to make money, but do not have the strength to keep it.
