Chapter 1303: Theory of Policy Science and Technology
Chen Xi looked at Cai Yan curiously. To be honest, he was a little unsure about Cai Yan's skills now. Cai Yan understood the knowledge taught by Chen Xi very well, and after he understood it, he came up with his own thinking.
"Let me tell you, you are indeed a little aggrieved for not taking the exam." Chen Xi sent a message.
"Maybe I have instilled some of my own thoughts into Wang Yi. What she writes now is not profound, but generally speaking, she has written what I said at the beginning." Cai Yan said through the message, saying that Cai Yan read again here
Looking at Wang Yi, she is really a very smart woman.
"I may have rarely thought about these things before. After coming under the rule of Xuande Gong, I have a lot of time and have been exposed to many of your absurd, but thoughtful and meaningful classics." Cai Yan said slowly
Tell her own story.
"Maybe it's because I was born with the ability to comprehend and understand classics. Your books gave me a lot of food for thought. Many of my ideas have changed, and my perspective on things is much different from before." Cai Yan clearly expressed a hint of confusion.
Sighing look.
"Although I was worried before, so far, it should be considered good. Many things seem to me to be very simple now." Cai Yan looked at Chen Xi faintly, with no confusion in his eyes.
"In my opinion, dynastic change is just an inevitable process. You can come late or come early, but if you can't change it, it won't happen. This is the inevitable result of selfish desires and interests." Cai Yan smiled when he said this.
"It must be what you taught me."
"The real reason for the collapse of the dynasty is that there is no promotion channel for the lower levels, and the upper levels monopolize all the interests. Moreover, in this case, the vested interests want to obtain more benefits because of their own selfish desires." Cai Yan
He repeated it using the words that Chen Xi had used before. Hearing Cai Yan use these words, Chen Xi felt a little upset for some reason.
"As for how to solve the problem, the most fundamental thing is to increase output. Whether it is agriculture or the handicraft industry that Chen Hou said, as long as the basic necessities of life can be solved, the dynasty will not collapse no matter how turbulent it is." Cai Yan was slightly disappointed when he said this, "However,
impossible."
"Why is it impossible?" Chen Xi sighed in his heart. Cai Yan's understanding was indeed amazing. If such a person were to be in future generations, he would probably be a god of learning.
"Land, acres, I have calculated that the population of 60 million is probably the warning line mentioned by Chen Hou. Once the dynasty is unified and enters the stage of prosperity, the world's population will skyrocket. I specifically checked the data from the Han Dynasty to Emperor Ling
The population in the year..." Cai Yan was obviously a little sad. She never paid attention to these things in the past.
"Well, it is true." Chen Xi nodded and said, "The population of 60 million is indeed the limit of the current land capacity of the Central Plains. That's why I want to expand the territory. Because of Doctor Hua and Doctor Zhang, the plague has not
outbreak, and because of Duke Xuande’s suppression, the Central Plains has not reached the point where the princes regard the people as dirt. Now the Central Plains has a population of close to 50 million..."
Cai Yan had already guessed this number, and because Chen Xi had inherited a lot of knowledge, she already had a clear understanding of the war.
It can be said that the large population that disappeared during the war was the foundation for the subsequent prosperity. It was precisely because so many people died that there was land and acres of land.
Unfortunately, the biggest problem has not changed. In the process, the number of aristocratic families has increased, and the population limit of the Central Plains has dropped again without changing the grain output per acre, until more severe turmoil breaks out and will
The aristocratic family took out part of the land.
"So it is more important to open up the territory and expand the territory. Your thinking is indeed right. The solution is to improve agriculture and handicrafts as much as possible internally, and invest excess manpower externally into opening up the territory and expanding the territory. Instead of clearing out the population in the civil war and occupying the brothers
It’s better to go out and seize other people’s land!” Chen Xi said coldly.
If it were three years ago, Cai Yan might have felt that what Chen Xi did was ungentlemanly, and even more likely that Chen Xi would have gone too far. But after three years of understanding, Cai Yan has also understood that his current life is
how come.
"If there is a grading in the future, I will also participate, just to see if there is anything surprising." Cai Yan changed the subject and suggested to Chen Xi.
"Okay." Chen Xi did not refuse in this aspect. To be honest, the answers of these people in this exam were pretty good. Unfortunately, Chen Xi's vision was too high and he always looked at problems from a historical perspective.
That's why it seems that this group of people behaves in an average way.
"Huh..." Lu Yu took a deep breath. He didn't know whether it was because he was hit by Mi Zhen's behavior or something else. Lu Yu, who had held back his breath, answered the last question very smoothly, almost literary.
No points added.
[There should be no problem with this. That bastard Lu Boyan should not be able to pass me.] Lu Yu thought to himself, [I wonder how that guy is doing now.]
Just when Lu Yu was about to turn around and look at Lu Xun not far away, he suddenly found Xun Yue standing behind him and immediately sat down.
"Very interesting answer." Xun Yue said to Lu Yu with satisfaction, and then walked elsewhere. He had been standing behind Lu Yu for a long time.
Lu Yu also started from the perspective of food and clothing, explaining the problems other than the political environment in the last years of the dynasty. However, Lu Xun took the road of conquest and expanded his acres as much as possible, while Lu Yu took the road of conquest based on the current environment.
took another path.
As long as the current environment remains unchanged, the most important thing to do is not to expand. The limit of the scope of its own control has been determined, so the most important thing to do is to improve the utilization rate, not only of acres of land, but also of people and materials.
Here, Lu Yu also gave examples of the comparison between the grain yield per mu in the spring and autumn and the current crop yield, as well as the changes in the grain-producing land in the past and the grain-producing land now. Then he proposed the relocation of densely populated areas, as well as official land reclamation, and the maximum utilization has been achieved.
resources owned.
Overall, this answer was very good, but Lu Yu finally said that there was no way to solve the fundamental problem, but he still chose to explore his own limits. After all, he felt that the land under his feet was not infinite.
Although this is already off topic, the examiner who got the paper cannot deny this fact, and Lu Yu also pointed out the distance between the limits of the empire in the paper.
It's just that unlike others whose purpose is to extend the life of the empire indefinitely, Lu Yu said that it simply can't be done. After the limit of the empire's rule appears, it should not continue to waste national power to expand its territory, but should instead explore its own limits and explore all aspects of it.
Pay equal attention to the excavation, technology and acres!
