Daming: Old Zhu, we agreed not to rush!

Chapter 176 Bourgeois society, the future of Ming Dynasty?

"Hmm... no external force?"

Liu Bowen thought it was quite right at first, but when he heard the external force suddenly, he suddenly felt something was wrong.

"Master Su, what do you mean by external force?"

Liu Bowen asked Su Jing.

Although the Ming Dynasty has just been established, its national strength is not comparable to those small countries.

Since ancient times, the unified dynasty of this land of China has always regarded itself as the kingdom of heaven.

Of course, there are also misnomers.

This external force certainly cannot refer to the change of the next dynasty. In that case, the cycle of dynasties in feudal society remains the same.

Liu Bowen could understand Su Jing's words, so he was confused.

Su Jing said lightly: "Our thoughts are imprisoned, but it does not mean that the thoughts of people in other countries are imprisoned."

"If we were the only ones, then there would be no problem with this feudal dynasty changing constantly."

"After all, the feudal dynasty has been reincarnated like this for thousands of years, and there have been no accidents."

"But just because we stand still doesn't mean everyone else is too. Our science doesn't develop, our ideas don't advance, new productivity tools won't be created, and productivity levels won't improve. Others will."

"In a territory that is very far away from the Ming Dynasty, changes are taking place there, and scientific ideas are sprouting and bursting out."

"Science promotes the improvement of productivity, and the improvement of productivity feeds the development of science."

"And science can not only be used to improve productivity, science can make a country stronger."

"One day, they will use force to open our world from the outside, and by then, it will be another look."

As Su Jing said, what came to mind was Huaxia's century-old history of humiliation.

If you fall behind, you will be beaten!
The original Huaxia has always been an existence standing on top of the world.

Unfortunately.
Thinking of this, Su Jing couldn't help but sighed.

Listening to Su Jing's narration, Liu Bowen felt helpless and lonely from Su Jing's words.

He felt that Su Jing seemed to know everything, as if he had seen the picture he described.

is it possible?

Shocked and puzzled, Liu Bowen asked Su Jing:

"So, Mr. Su means that the collapse of our feudal society did not happen naturally, but was forcibly changed by external forces, right?"

Su Jing glanced at Liu Bowen, this old Liu can always grasp the key points in the fastest time.

This thinking ability is really extraordinary.

Su Jing replied: "Old Liu, I can't say for sure about the future, I can only say that this possibility is the most likely to happen."

Even if Su Jing already knew the history, he didn't dare to be sure about what would happen in the next few hundred years.

After all, he has already changed the course of history.

He still knew about the theory of parallel universes.

"Is that so?"

Liu Bowen frowned, feeling something wrong with Su Jing's answer.

The greatest probability is true, but in Su Jing's previous remarks, there is no such thing as probability.

I was puzzled, but Liu Bowen didn't ask.

It's as if Su Jing never asked about his identity, some things are best just like this.

"Mr. Su, if science can develop normally in this feudal society, what kind of social form will it enter?"

Liu Bowen continued his previous question.

This is what he wants to know most.

"If science develops normally, it will be another scene."

Su Jing said indifferently: "The ruling foundation of the feudal society is the land. The self-sufficient natural economy has formed the landlord class and the nobles. They use the land as a shackle to restrain and exploit the peasants to obtain benefits. "

"The real ruler has never been a farmer."

"Businessmen in feudal society always relied on this self-sufficient natural economy. Even if they had it, they couldn't grow bigger and stronger because the level of productivity was too low and the surplus commodities were insufficient."

"With the development of science, the productivity will be greatly improved, the surplus goods will be greatly increased, and the trade will also become larger and larger."

"And science and technology can continuously increase the distance of trade, the scope of the entire business will also expand, and the speed of wealth accumulation will be greatly improved."

"When the level of productivity is sufficient, the wealth of merchants will invest and expand handicrafts and commerce, and a large number of labor will enter the factory."

"As a result, the self-sufficient traditional economy will inevitably be impacted. In order to maintain their own rule, the original feudal landlord class and nobles must suppress and restrict these businessmen."

"Such actions will inevitably lead to the continuous deepening and sharpening of the contradictions between the two classes, until they can no longer be maintained, and will erupt and form a revolution!"

"From the perspective of businessmen, what I call the bourgeoisie, in order to safeguard their own interests, they must have more power, because most of the right to speak was in the hands of the feudal landlord class before."

"If they want to seize the right to speak, they can only use revolutionary means to finally form a new social form exploited by capital. I call it a capitalist society."

Su Jing didn't know much about capitalist society, and the example he gave was actually Britain.

After the beginning of the British colonial era, a large number of businessmen accumulated wealth through maritime trade, and then invested in the development of handicrafts and commerce at home and abroad.

Su Jing only knew about the humiliating colonization history of the changes in the land of China, but he really couldn't say anything about the natural transformation of the feudal society.

revolution.

Bourgeoisie.

capitalist society.

Liu Bowen carefully understood what Su Jing said. This was different from the previous slave society or primitive society. There was only Su Jing's description, without any historical records.

No one knew if what Su Jing said was true or false.

But since Liu Bowen came to ask, he naturally believed in Su Jing.

It's just that Su Jing said a lot of new concepts at once, and it still took him some time to understand.

Su Jing took a sip of water, and after talking so much in a row, his mouth was also parched.

What little knowledge of Marxism I had in my head was almost wiped out.

Seeing Liu Bowen's pensive look, Su Jing got up and ran directly to the kitchen.

Talking is tiring, especially with such continuous high-intensity output.

His stomach is already hungry.

Liu Bowen didn't notice Su Jing's departure at all, he was immersed in the theory Su Jing described.

Is this the development process of capitalist society?

So what is a capitalist society like?

Many questions appeared in Liu Bowen's mind again.

He was very excited and wanted to apply it to the current Ming Dynasty.

However, Liu Bowen soon realized that such a process is simply not suitable for the current Ming Dynasty.

To be precise, the entire feudal dynasty could not apply such a process.

What Su Jing said is right, there is no room for scientific development on this soil.

The feudal dynasty started from the unification of the Qin Dynasty and has been passed down from generation to generation.

The development of productivity has not progressed by leaps and bounds.

The ups and downs of these dynasties are actually the same, and there have been no fundamental changes for thousands of years.

Nothing has changed!

The Ming Dynasty destroyed the Yuan Dynasty, and after hundreds of years, a new dynasty will destroy the Ming Dynasty!

It's like a dream that never stops.

"Old Liu, eat something."

Su Jing's voice sounded, pulling Liu Bowen out of his thoughts.

Googoo~~~~~
Liu Bowen's stomach growled.

Don't look at what he didn't say, most of the time he was listening.

But his thinking has never stopped, and his energy has been consumed.

"Oh well."

Liu Bowen came back to his senses and nodded towards Su Jing.

In front of him is a plate of boiled eggs, and there is a dipping plate with salt next to it.

This.
Liu Bowen was slightly taken aback, but was a little surprised that Su Jing ate so simple.

"Try it, boiled eggs dipped in salt, delicious and healthy."

Su Jing recommended to Liu Bowen.

This is his favorite way of eating in previous life, very delicious.

"Okay, I'll try."

Liu Bowen nodded.

In fact, boiled eggs are not unfamiliar dishes to Liu Bowen.

It's just that they are all eaten on the march, fast and simple, without any seasoning.

Normally, he really doesn't eat like this.

Following Su Jing's example, she dipped the egg head in a little salt, and then took one bite at a time.

The aroma of the eggs is extremely strong, with a little salty taste, and the egg yolks are just cooked, which is really quite good.

"Master Su, this"

After eating it in one bite, Liu Bowen showed surprise on his face.

He never thought that an ordinary boiled egg could have such a taste.

"It's surprising that a small boiled egg is so delicious, isn't it? Let me tell you, Lao Liu, the simplicity of cooking is also very particular."

Su Jing took another bite, her face full of satisfaction.

"Master Su is so proficient in the way of food. Old Liu admires it."

Liu Bowen praised and ate another one.

Su Jing laughed and said: "Old Liu, you only know what happened. When we first met to eat pork feet rice, I told you that the recipe was developed by me."

Liu Bowen was taken aback for a moment, and then the scene when he and Zhu Yuanzhang met Su Jing for the first time came to mind.

That's right, Su Jing had already said that at the time.

But at that time, Su Jing made Zhu Yuanzhang jump in anger.

"I'm getting old, and my memory is not very good, Mr. Su forgive me."

Liu Bowen said to Su Jing.

"Eat it quickly, these eggs are a very high-quality source of protein, it's okay to eat more."

Su Jing said.

"protein?"

Liu Bowen frowned, and said to Su Jing, "I don't know what this protein means?"

"Oh, it's nothing, it just means that eggs are very good and good for health!"

Su Jing immediately rounded it up, sometimes speaking too casually, it is easy to slip up.

Liu Bowen looked at the egg in his hand, frowned and then let go, and continued to eat.

A plate of eggs was gone in no time.

Su Jing ate five, and Liu Bowen ate three.

Young people, just have a good appetite.

"Mr. Su, what should this capitalist society look like?"

After eating, Liu Bowen started asking questions again.

Su Jing took a sip of water and replied: "To know what a capitalist society is like, you must first understand what capitalism is."

"Capitalism is a social system based on private ownership of the means of production. Its main content is the exploitation of the bourgeoisie who owns the means of production by purchasing labor power. Under this system, capital in its various forms is the main productive force material."

"To put it bluntly, capitalist society is the exploitation of the proletariat by the bourgeoisie."

exploit?

Liu Bowen was taken aback, and said, "Mr. Su, what do you mean, this capitalist society is still exploitative?"

In the previous slave society and feudal society, Liu Bowen learned about the existence of exploitation.

He didn't understand why exploitation still existed after productivity increased again.

"Yes, exploitation has always existed. The value created by the labor of hired workers greatly exceeds the value paid by capitalists to purchase labor power. The difference between the two is the surplus value that capitalists occupy for free. This is the exploitation of the proletariat by the bourgeoisie. "

Su Jing replied.

Liu Bowen hesitated, this was a little different from what he had imagined.

From feudal society to capitalist society, the change is not as great as Liu Bowen thought.

"Master Su, the capitalist society, the bourgeoisie, are actually transformed from businessmen, right?"

Liu Bowen looked at Su Jing and said.

Su Jing thought for a while, then nodded and said, "It's okay to think so, but the bourgeoisie in the early days are actually landlords, and those who own the means of production are counted."

"However, the biggest difference between the bourgeoisie and the landlord class is that the landlord class exploits the peasants, but the peasants still own the land. When the bourgeoisie exploits the workers, that is the employment relationship. The workers come to the factory to work, get paid and leave, and the workers do not own the land. land."

"In this way, the status of the exploited workers will be even lower, and in the feudal society, there is at least the saying of a scholar, a farmer, a businessman."

Liu Bowen was really surprised to hear Su Jing's affirmative answer.

The existence of merchants, who were regarded as the most humble class in feudal society, would unexpectedly occupy a dominant position in the next social form.

Some are beyond common sense, but thinking about the deduction according to what Su Jing said, it seems that there is no problem.

"Master Su, will the future Daming be broken by external forces?"

Liu Bowen asked Su Jing the last question.

Ming dynasty!

Will the Ming Dynasty be destroyed by the next dynasty, or will it be forced to change the form of feudal society by the external force Su Jing said.

Su Jing shook her head and said: "I don't know, maybe it will, maybe it won't."

"The future is too far away, who knows what will happen."

Some things, after all, are still not suitable to be said directly.

The theory can be discussed, but Su Jing is still relatively cautious about such a major event in the future.

Not because he was afraid that Liu Bowen would leak it, but because he was worried that if he said it, it would cause some changes.

For me, that is history, but for the Ming Dynasty, that is the future.
