Chapter 120: Half-year-old Escape Governance (10)

With Jiao He's words, he felt that this person was extraordinary. Those who could say such words were obviously deeply the essence of Yidun's first pot of gold.

Yidun could not make any money in Lu, so he had to ask for advice from Mr. Tao Zhu.

Tao Zhu and Duanmu Ci were basically people of the same era, and Confucius mostly worked in Lu, but Duanmu Ci's path to wealth cannot be learned.

Because Duanmuci is a speculative person, buying low and selling high requires strong capital support.

However, when Mr. Tao Zhu started his business, he rarely used speculation, so Yidun could not learn Duanmu Ci's methods and had to ask Tao Zhu.

Tao Zhu said you have to have the first pot of gold first, but you are too poor now, so you might as well go to Xihe to engage in animal husbandry. The chaos in the Jin Dynasty was just when horses were needed, and animal husbandry could reproduce and increase.

So Yidun came to Xihe and started his business by raising a few horses. He took advantage of the opportunity when the chaos in the Jin Dynasty urgently needed horses.

As military supplies, horses were easily handed over to the nobles, and then they devoted themselves to the salt cooking and jewelry industry, and eventually became a rich man who could compete with Duanmu Ci and Tao Zhugong.

Jiao He means that he hopes to buy some seeds from Mozhe and plant them, so that he can develop. Just like Yidun relied on a few horses to reproduce, his first pot of gold still needs to be managed.

This is a very mature idea. Jiao He also said that Mo is the first priority to benefit the world. This kind of thing can benefit both the people of the world and the people.

Shiqi said: "How did you know the meaning of the ink?"

Jiao He was prepared and immediately replied: "I traveled between Jin, Zheng, Yang, Zhu, Liezi and others often gave lectures. There were not many people in Mo there, but I often heard them criticizing the Mo family's words, so I knew it."

"I am a businessman just to benefit. However, if I benefit, the people of Jin and Zheng will also benefit from planting these new valleys. Because I think it is feasible, I will go from Taoyi to Peiyi."

"Besides, there are wheat flour mill bean foods in Taoyi, Anyi, Luoyi and other places. Now the price of wheat beans has risen sharply. If it is not a food of a pariah, how can you not know the name of the Mozhe?"

This is perfect and there are basically no loopholes. Yang Zhu and others were originally hostile to the Mozhe, and the Mozhe took advantage of the previous opportunity to broadcast his reputation, so it was normal to hear it.

Jiao He said again: "Now, who doesn't know about the three valleys of Jiahe in Jin? In the past, Tang Shuyu won the Jin Dynasty and obtained Jiahe. It can be seen that although pearls and jade are expensive, they are still not as good as Jiahe. Pearls and jade can be exchanged for cities, and Jiahe can be awarded a marquis. The benefits of this are something that businessmen must not ignore."

This matter has been discussed internally by Mozhe, and said appropriately: "What you said makes sense, it is indeed a matter of benefiting the world. It is not impossible to sell Xingu."

When Jiao He heard this, he was secretly happy. He never expected that the Mozhe would agree so readily.

He had seen a lot of new things in Peiyi along the way. The golden wheat in Peixian was in the entire Peixian County. At this time, May, how could such a scene be here in previous years?

Besides, when I heard Shi and Wei just now, Jiao He also knew that after planting winter wheat, he should plant beans. Of course, it is best to plant black jade with not many seeds, but if it can be planted here, can it be planted in the Sanjin area? Can it be planted in Xihe?

There are also the techniques of composting and fermenting and fertilizing the fields, and so on, which are difficult for ordinary people to explain clearly.

Before coming to Peiyi from Wei, I thought it would be an extremely difficult thing, but I didn't expect it to be so easy.

At this time, advanced technology, organizational techniques, etc. can all prosper and destroy the country.

Qu Wuchen passed on the chariot war, Wu Zixu built cities and changed the military system, Fan Li's army changed, Yue Nu passed on the sword, Chen Yin taught shooting, Gongshu Ban changed the warship hook and refusal, etc., are all means to use their technological advantages to strengthen the country in the short term, and they all rose and fell on a whim.

Planting is of course a technology.

Perhaps some nobles looked down upon it, but Wu Qi, who guarded the Xihe River, and Li Ku, who presided over the reform, knew the difficulty, and it was not something that could be solved with seeds.

Especially with Wu Qi's reform of the recruitment system, the improvement of this cultivation technology became more important. Unlike the feudal conscript system of aristocrats in the blood, the recruitment system requires a strong economic basis to support professional soldiers.

But Jiao He didn't expect the other party to agree so happily. He thought he needed to tell him something more.

But he didn't know that this new planting technology would spread all over the world.

First, it can indeed benefit the world and make the world less hunger; second, under this conspiracy, the economic foundation of the nobles of blood will continue to collapse, and the emerging landlord class and self-cultivated farmer class will continue to rise; third, agriculture is the basis for the development of urban handicrafts and exchange economy. Without the foundation of agriculture, the technological advantages he masters cannot be exchanged for more benefits at all.

The most important thing is that the faster the country like the Central Plains and the Three Jins rises, the sooner the collapse of the Three Jins will come. The war between the Central Plains, Qi, Chu and Qin will curb the hegemony of the Three Jins, and the formal division of the Three Jins will be faster.

The more chaotic the Mohist, the greater the chance of the Mohist, and it will give Mohist more time to develop.

Under a stable system, it is too difficult for the Mo to do things.

He was not able to express his thoughts, so he could only use the saying that this thing could benefit people in the world to convince the Mo to obtain support and consent.

Whether it is a malicious spy or a businessman who is purely for making money, they are very welcome and wish they could spread these new technologies tomorrow.

Without great development of agriculture, how could there be more metropolitan men and urban handicraftsmen? Once new productivity develops, how can the old production relations be so easy to gain a foothold? Under the change and restoration, more people will agree with the morality of metropolitan men.

He had a conspiracy in his mind, so he and Jiao He carried the drunk reed back to the place to stay in the village pavilion.

Shi asked first: "I have heard that north of the Three Jin Dynasties, land can be bought and sold? There are many people who use the land to make profits?"

Jiao He knew that Mozhe was well-informed, and he often heard that before Shi became Mozhe, there were two masters who had traveled all over the world. He was not surprised by the news that Shi knew, but only said that it was indeed the case.

After all, the Three Jins was a powerful country at this time, and the commodity economy developed rapidly, which was basically at the same level as Taoyi, the state of Song. However, because the land transactions in Jin were supported by national reforms, the land issue was different from that in Song.

Jiao He said: "Although there are transactions, they are mostly used to pay off debts. The three Jin Dynasties set rents, and there are also people who lend money and cannibalism. The year is not good, so they have to buy and sell land."

The earlier the reform, the earlier the land merger will occur, which will break the well-field system. Although the situation in Jin State is not serious, there are already clues.

Mencius once commented on the physical renting system that became popular after decades: Once a famine occurs, a fixed rent cannot be lost, so by the end of the year, even parents cannot support their rent.

Not only has the disadvantages of the fixed-class system already appeared, but the situation of usury has become extremely popular.

Mencius also said that if you set a rent and encounter bad times, you need to ask others to borrow usury, which will lead to getting poorer and eventually throwing the body into the valley.

Later generations Mengchangjun often lent loans, and the interest rate increased and the people who had Xue Di could not afford to pay the interest, so most of them were fleeing.

Society seems to be in the old era, but the dawn of the new era has been shown in the form of disadvantages.

The one-stop collapse system of leasing, debt, loan, bankruptcy, and escape in feudal society has emerged at this time and has become a major social problem.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for Mencius, Xunzi, and Han Feidu to mention usury and small farmers' bankruptcy just a few decades later.

Shi heard Jiao He say this, but he didn't care much. If you think about it, you will know that it will happen later. Sad sighing is meaningless. It is better to find a way to change it.

He said: "If this is the case, it can be seen that the land price is not expensive? There are many people who sell land with loans and have no way to make a living, they can only rent a commission to make a living. This is an opportunity that can make profits and benefit people. You are just right."

Jiao He hurriedly asked for advice, and then he talked about the way bankrupt farmers get rich by doing cheap labor and operating landlords.

It is just a matter of only talking about the affairs of the Three Jin Dynasties. Mo people cannot solve the problem of mortgage loans or land annexation, but it can always prevent those who lose their land from starving to death, which is also a decisive thing.

Jiao He also heard the meaning of "Shi": it was nothing more than buying land, planting crops, and exchanging crops for money near cities or rivers.

At the same time, hiring farmers who have lost land and are forced by usury and let them use them as laborers in the fields, which will not only prevent them from starving to death, but also may accumulate and become rich by themselves.

As for river transportation, it had already formed a scale at this time. Later, Qin attacked Chu from Bashu and went down the river, resulting in "three hundred miles a day"; and the tax-free pass issued by E Junqi in the era of King Huai of Chu even stated that the duty-free materials could not be loaded in more than 150 items...

All these existing or unexisting facts support a suitable view: it is absolutely profitable to do commercial agricultural production in places where Sanjin is convenient for transportation by rivers, or directly near the city walls.

But the premise is to have superb planting technology.

One is determined to quickly send out the transformation of planting technology so that enough people can afford to sell iron tools on a large scale in the future, and can develop handicrafts while selling them at high prices.

Another one was to spy on Wu Qi, Li Ju and others who thought this was a secret matter, and the Mozhe would treat it as a treasure and would not easily show it to others.

The two sides hit it off.

Jiao Helian praised Shi's idea and agreed with Shi's internal connections such as bankruptcy, joint efforts, and management. He wished he could remember all these words and go back and tell them.

Shi Ze said: "It seems simple to have crops, but it is actually extremely difficult. If rice has no water, how can it be harvested? If wheat encounters frost, wouldn't it be hungry? Besides, the ink sells you seeds like new grains such as black jade. If you don't know how to plant them, how can you benefit the world? Even if you are yourself, you will suffer losses?"

Jiao Hexin said I just wanted to know the details, but you said that.

Shi explained the morality in it again. In Jiao He's praise, Shi said: "The man who wrote the art of farming on the grass and silk. However, those who can tell must teach children in the village school. Fortunately, there are not many words in it... The man who has dictionary such as scriptures, and also has sentences that read punctuation. As long as you recognize the words, there will be no ambiguity."

"There are many people like you... I think you might as well live here first and learn words? It is also better to observe these local methods of farming. In the future, you can grow and get rich, and you can spread the world..."
