Chapter 645 Happy Jiangzhou People
"There has never been any high-end technology in governing counties and dynasties."

"Everyone also knows what they can do to govern."

"But, they just don't do it."

"Because if they do that, they will lose their interests and they will no longer have the privilege."

"Yang Xian, what you said is absolutely right, so the reason why the dynasties of the past dynasties perished in 300 years seems to have fallen into a cycle, and it was never because people's wisdom was not enough." Zhu Yuanzhang sighed, "It's because of interests that let the nobles The classes made the same choice. Disastrous to the country and the people, to the common people."

"The fundamental reason why Chinese people have been living in dire straits for thousands of years is not because of the incompetence of the emperor and ministers of the dynasty, nor the limitations of the times, but because of two words, interests."

"Technology determines social productivity."

"The economy determines the survival and development of the dynasty."

"Interests determine the form of the dynasty."

Zhu Yuanzhang said.

"Your majesty is wise!" Liu Bowen said, "The emperor's 'three decisions' were born out of nowhere. All courtiers should learn the spirit of ***'s 'three decisions'."

"If the ministers can understand the spirit of the emperor's 'three decisions' thoroughly, the Ming Dynasty will surely prosper."

"Become the Immortal Dynasty."

"Not bad!"

"Not bad!"

After Liu Bowen finished speaking, all the ministers seconded their opinions one after another.

"Okay." Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand to prevent the officials from continuing to flatter him, and said, "About the fact that a large number of people from other states and counties want to move to Jiangzhou, we have decided that they cannot be allowed to move."

"Although the common people want to move to a prefecture and county in Haiyan and Heqing to live in peace, it is very urgent, and we understand it very well."

"But there are too many people, and it is not easy for the Mo family to accommodate them.",

"And the people in other states and counties have been evacuated, and it is indeed unfair to other states and counties,"

"Emperor Shengming!" The ministers said in succession.

"However, the people all over the country want to move to Jiangzhou, but His Majesty ordered to stop it, which will inevitably cause a lot of public grievances. For the sake of the overall situation of the court, they cannot be let go." At this time, Li Shanchang stood up and said, "For today The only way to do this is to let the whole country create a few more places like Jiangzhou."

As soon as Li Shanchang said this, the whole court fell silent.

All the officials were silent.

The reason for this is simple.

Jiangzhou is a paradise for the common people.

But for those who have bad intentions and want to make money, Jiangzhou is hell.

In a word,
Under Jiangzhou's governance model, it is difficult for them to make money.

They have no privileges anymore, and they are no longer masters.

So although they all said that Jiangzhou was well governed, none of them wanted to follow suit.All the officials don't want the places they manage to follow Jiangzhou.

Even, it won't be long before they will slander or try their best to discredit Heijiang Prefecture.

Because the current Ming Dynasty does not allow such a powerful school of Mohism to exist.

Such a 'heresy' in Jiangzhou is not allowed to appear.

In the muddy pond of Daming, a pool of water as clear as Jiangzhou is not allowed to exist.

The hostile forces are so strong, if Lao Zhu hadn't handed over all the governance rights of Jiangzhou to the Mohist family, so that the supervisory censor could not control the governance of the Mohist family, I am afraid that Jiangzhou would never be like it is now.

It is connected with the surrounding ponds and communicates with water sources. No matter how clear the pond is, it will be blackened by the surrounding sewage.

So when Lao Zhu let the Mohist govern Jiangzhou, it was almost completely independent.

It is difficult to make the water in a one-acre paddy field clear and transparent, but if the one-acre paddy field is divided into dozens of small paddy fields, then it is easy to be clear.

This principle, Qin Yu once demonstrated to Lao Zhu himself.

Of course, don't worry, the dynasty will be split after the division.

As long as all the divided paddy fields belong to the landlords, there is no such thing as division.

"That's exactly what we think!" Zhu Yuanzhang said.Li Shanchang said that this sentence was ordered by him, but all the officials did not respond, Lao Zhu also guessed, knowing the wishful thinking in their hearts,

But he was too lazy to argue with them, and said: "Since the management achievements of the Mohist school are obvious to all."

"Then the Mohist family should be allowed to govern a larger area."

"Excuse me, Your Majesty, how much territory do you want to give the Mo family?" Yang Xian stood up and asked.

"The entire province of Zhejiang." Zhu Yuanzhang said, "We have already said before that the province should be governed by a hundred schools of thought. Moreover, it is also one of the important future policies that Mr. Qin formulated for the Ming Dynasty. .”

"Actually, the plan to let hundreds of families govern the province has been proposed for a long time."

"It took a long time for Baijia to operate in various provinces."

"However, when they went to the provinces, the promotion and popularization of the Hundred Schools of Thought was difficult. The reason was that they were suppressed by the feudal aristocratic forces and could not adapt to the local sophistication."

"Now that the Mohists have made achievements in Jiangzhou, they have found the point of breaking the game. Then the Mohists should take advantage of the victory and pursue it, govern a larger area, set an example for the other hundred families, and then the hundred families will catch up."

"Report to the emperor." At this time, Gao Qi, a scholar of the Hanlin Academy, stepped out of the train and said, "The main reason why the Mohists can manage Jiangzhou well is that Jiangzhou is too small."

"Small places are indeed easy to manage, but larger places are not necessarily so. The water in a small pond is easy to clear because the fish in it are small."

"The water in a big pond is not easy to be clear,"

"Because the pond is big, the fish in it are also big."

"You said it very lightly." Zhu Yuanzhang said coldly, "You are denying the achievements of the Mohists by saying that!"

"Jiangzhou is very small?"

"Compared to the provinces, the state capital of Jiangzhou is indeed small, but it is at least a state. If the Mohist can manage a state well, it proves that the Mohist's ability is beyond doubt."

"If it was changed to before, let alone a state capital, it would be a small county with hundreds of miles. I am afraid that no one can manage it like the current Jiangzhou. Then the government will be clean and the people will live and work in peace and contentment, right?"

"Looking at the history books of China, in the thousands of years of history, has there ever been such a state and county, like Jiangzhou now, where everyone lives and works in peace and contentment, does not pick up things on the street, and does not close the door at night?"

All the ministers were speechless when they heard the words.

"My Majesty, according to the real data survey." Li Shanchang said, "The satisfaction of the people in Jiangzhou with the imperial court is almost 100%. The happiness index of the people is also almost 100%."

"No adulteration whatsoever."

Almost 100% satisfaction without any exaggeration.

Because the contrast is too obvious.
