"I can agree to your batch exchange, and I can also compensate you for the real nurturing land, and I will also make compensation in other aspects, but you need to bear the responsibility for the development of those places, and when our decree arrives, resolutely implement it !" Chen Xi said as he glanced at the heads of aristocratic families.
"Will the decree be resolutely implemented?" Wei Jian frowned.
"Don't worry, I won't attack your actions within the rules, or even those that wander on the edge of the rules. Our decrees are generally universal ones and will not be specially customized." Chen Xi also knows this group of aristocratic families. He explained slowly what he was worried about.
"Some conceptually universal decrees will actually harm our interests. This is a word game." Xun Shuang argued hard, and now it was obvious that it was time to talk about some substantive issues.
"Okay, anyway, it will take a long time. You nominate a group of people to draft a charter and a regulation with us. We will engrave it after the discussion. The time limit is five years. As for the reason..." Chen Xi heard Xun Shuang's words, He also nodded slowly.
It is impossible for the Aristocratic Family to walk the path that Chen Xi wants in one go. What he has to do now is to drive the Aristocratic Family into place, whether it is tempting with carrots or whipping with a riding crop, soft or hard as long as it is useful.
After all, whether Chen Xi admits it or not, aristocratic families are really elite in this era, at least most of the talents are cultivated by aristocratic families.
As for the imperial examination, Chen Xi has indeed thought about it, but it must be shackles. In the end, the pure imperial examination will turn into stereotypes and become Ming Confucianism. It is strange that Qing Confucianism should not be mentioned.
Everything needs to be restricted. After a certain limit, there will be no good things in this world. However, before the aristocratic family has developed to the level of a powerful family, there is still value in saving it, and this is Chen Xi's idea.
After the Three Kingdoms, the ninth grade Zhongzheng was free from the constraints of a poor family. The aristocratic family was completely invincible, but after papermaking became popular, the reason why the emperor wanted to suppress the aristocratic family was because of its huge base. Ordinary people completely overwhelmed the wealthy families with their numbers.
But the huge literati group, after losing control, caused greater destructive power than the aristocratic family. This huge base always left people speechless, since it was not a good thing. Is it all ruined?
Chen Xi is not that stupid. Not to mention what it takes to kill aristocratic families. To be honest, 60% of the officials under Liu Bei's rule are from aristocratic families. Although Chen Xi hopes to try his best to reduce this figure to 50%, whether he admits it or not, he is doing it for Officially, the advantages of the aristocratic family are really obvious.
It is even estimated that Chen Xi will not have the stability of a generation, and most people will not be able to meet his requirements in terms of quality.
The ancients said that one can know etiquette if one is well-endowed, and one can know honor and disgrace if one has enough food and clothing. This is the most true portrayal. The common people who have been poor for too long are also military supplies officers like Mi Fang. It goes without saying that whoever steals military supplies is more likely to steal military supplies.
Just like what Chen Xi once saw, the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans fought without frowning on the battlefield to protect their stable life, but petty theft also existed everywhere.
Just because the Yellow Turbans were able to break half of the steamed buns they received and distribute them to their comrades in the most difficult time does not mean that they are purely good people. It is normal for them to intercept certain seized supplies privately.
So much so that Chen Xi also specifically warned the military to maintain good military discipline, but in fact the military discipline of the Qingzhou Army is still not very good. Although it is not as exaggerated as having a military record, it only needs war. They will do more damage.
To solve these seemingly small things, it would take almost a generation of quality training. This is where Chen Xi is most helpless. You obviously have the most complete experience, but you have no way to use it.
Of course, this is okay. At least it only takes one generation to solve it. The problem is not too difficult. For an empire, it only takes one generation of time and investment. As long as the goal can be achieved, it is not unbearable.
The most difficult thing is that certain things cannot be solved even if Chen Xi has nearly two thousand wisdom, experience, and knowledge.
Everyone knows that the aristocratic family is a trap, but it was simply impossible to eradicate the aristocratic family in the Three Kingdoms era. Even Chen Xi’s current power cannot do it. A power cannot be run by just a dozen or so people at the top. There are a large number of lower-level personnel. , may be more important than the few people at the top.
Remove almost all the top, middle, and lower-level strata of a country that maintain the stability of the country and region. Probably any empire will collapse. Even if it is a blood exchange, this is not the case. This is the important reason why Chen Xi has to slowly figure it out.
This is just like the Soviet people criticizing the Soviet government. As a result, the Soviet government collapsed. Not only did the Soviet people not get everything they wanted, but their lives were not as good as before, so much so that they have not recovered for more than 20 years.
This is still an industrial country, and it is still rich. Its national strength far exceeds that of a powerful empire in China at any time before 1840. By the way, the Soviet Union has not exaggerated to the point of removing 90% of the country’s ruling class. According to the situation at the time, it actually only had 100%. More than thirty points...
Of course, taking away 90% is a joke. It is impossible to do it. Before it reaches that level, all the rules are messed up. If you want to completely destroy the family from its foundation, other than slowly overdoing it and letting it die naturally, Unless you have a complete backup official system outside the aristocratic family!
It's a pity that in the Three Kingdoms era, no country was so luxurious. After all, if there were two Zhuge Liang, two Pang Tong, two Fazheng, two Jiang Wan...
This was simply unrealistic, so Chen Xi immediately put an end to the idea of destroying the family by force and turned to think of other methods.
It is really not difficult to push aristocratic families into the abyss like in history. As long as papermaking and education are popularized, and it takes several generations to support the people, most aristocratic families will be wiped out in one hundred to one hundred and fifty years.
Of course, if there is a family with geniuses appearing from generation to generation, there is no way. The so-called geniuses will basically not be knocked down with the same efforts. Just like if the Zhuge family produces Zhuge Liang from generation to generation, well, Zhuge Liang will appear from generation to generation. Jin is enough to make people despair. If this happens, there is basically no solution.
It couldn't be easier for Chen Xi to use the same method as in history to give strength to the aristocratic family that is currently sliding into the abyss, but is this method really good?
When you stand high enough, you should no longer consider the interests in front of you. This is what Chen Xi understood when he was studying. Taking a long-term view as much as possible is what people like them should do. (To be continued.)
