"Fifth brother, you still haven't read enough, and you still don't see things deeply enough! Don't be angry, brother, what I said is not to make fun of others, but I really want to reveal a few words from my heart!"
He didn't know that Yi Xin was emotionally moved, and tears fell from his eyes. "Fifth brother! What Xiao Letian said is right. The world today is truly an era of great change that has not been seen in three thousand years!"
"Do you think I don't study Europa? Do you think I don't study other people's systems? If I didn't study, how could I think of transforming the old rules of our Eight Banners' political affairs into the same aristocratic parliamentary system as in Europe?"
"Brother, I'm not a fool, I want to open my eyes and see the world!"
"Uuuuuuuuah... But the more I look at it, the more scared I am. This world is too dangerous and scary for us Manchus!"
"Then what is industrialization? It is indeed an important weapon for a great country to govern and secure the country. Who doesn't know that more steel is better? Who doesn't know that you can make foreign guns and cannons yourself?"
"Even though I am blind, I know that the more warships like the Zhiyuan, the better!"
"What nonsense is Feng Shui? Do you think I really believe it? My opposition to the railway is not because of Feng Shui! If I didn't know the benefits of the railway, I, the prince in charge of diplomacy, would be blinded!"
"I understand, I understand everything! But just because I understand, I am even more afraid..."
"You think I don't want the ideal Qing Empire that Zai Chun wants? I also dream of an industrialized Qing Dynasty. I also want the children of the Eight Banners in the world to use foreign guns, cannons and warships to fight wars. !”
"But how can such a result be so simple? It requires a complete industrial system!"
"Hurd introduced me to many European books, and I also talked with many European scholars who traveled to the Qing Dynasty. I really studied what an industrial system needs!"
"Starting from raw materials, we have to build cash mines, coal mines, iron mines, gold, silver, copper and iron minerals... These are the most basic blood of industry!"
"Then we have to build roads, because you have to transport these raw materials to the factories! Steel plants, coke plants, various non-ferrous metal smelting plants..."
"Following this, there will be various processing factories, arsenals, machinery processing factories, train manufacturers, ship builders... including those that make daily necessities for the common people!"
"That's not all. After the metal industry, you also have the rubber industry, sulfur, caustic soda and other factories..."
"There are too many, too many to finish even one book!"
"These things together form a large network that relies on each other and cooperates with each other... This network is called the industrial system. Zaichun's utopia must establish such an industrial system in order to realize its dream!"
"Only when this network of tens of thousands or even more than 100,000 factories and workshops is formed, with complete upstream and downstream operations, can we have guns, cannons, and airships, including steel. warship!"
Fifth Master Yi Pei was a little out of his mind, "Isn't this... a good thing? So many factories and workshops can make money, won't the empire be more abundant by then?"
Yixin wiped away her tears and said, "Confused! My brother! You are so confused!"
"This industrial system is indeed very good, but have you ever thought about it. In order to serve this system, you have to build countless new schools!"
"How do you operate those new things? They need to be cultivated in new schools. Confucian schools cannot teach them!"
"And these new schools must teach Western techniques of studying things, so that a large number of people will think about problems with Western ideas!"
"Let's not talk about the Confucian scholars...not to mention the protests of Weng Tong and those people...even we ourselves are scratching our heads! With so many people thinking differently from ordinary people, will they be alienated from the imperial court?"
"I say it will definitely happen! It will definitely happen..."
"Not only are there new ideas, but there are also a new group of people coming together... Do you know how many strong laborers it takes to run a mine or a factory?"
"Thousands of them! Such an industrial system requires millions of young and strong laborers to be gathered together... My God, think about it, so many potentially dangerous elements are gathered together..."
An extremely terrifying expression appeared on Yi Xin's face, "White Lotus Sect, Tianli Sect, God-worshiping Changmao, Nianzi... Who knows if those messy sects will infiltrate inside!"
"Anyway, if others don't tell me, Xiao Letian's influence will definitely penetrate, because he has the deepest knowledge of these Western Yi objects, and he has established too many schools for the Chinese!"
"If the hearts of millions of people are no longer with our Qing Dynasty, once there are a few agitators, it will be an unspeakably terrible scene in the blink of an eye!"
"Fifth brother, you still don't understand? Don't you understand? If these people make trouble, let alone we can't stop it, what about the French Emperor Napoleon III? He can't stop it either!"
"So I say that Zai Chun is playing with fire. In order to control this huge power in the future, he doesn't have such clever means... What should he do?"
"What else can he do besides being a tyrant? Just watch, the more Zai Chun's plan is implemented, the more this guy's true face will be exposed!"
The fifth master, Yi Pei, was really dumbfounded. This was the first time he heard this truth. He suddenly realized that his sixth brother was really powerful!
It's no wonder that his father included him as one of the heirs back then, and he almost edged out his fourth brother!
I can really see things from a different perspective!
Yi Pei rubbed Fumu's cheeks and then bit his back molars and said, "Then break them up! In this damn system, we Manchus should be used more, and our own direct descendants should be used!"
"At the critical moment, we can still rely on our own family!"
At this time, Prince Chun Yixuan, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke, "No! It can't be used! Ooooooh..." Yixuan covered his face and suddenly started crying!
"Ancestor! Are you really going to destroy our country? Why is it so difficult for us to rule the Central Plains!"
“Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!!!
"We can't do it! We can't understand it!"
"Before entering the customs, we were full of people in the white mountains and black waters, fighting with wild beasts, heaven and earth, and other tribes... It is no problem to fight and kill people, but what about farming, forging iron and making things?"
"We don't understand anything at all. If our ancestors hadn't been smart and plundered some Han craftsmen from the Central Plains for a long time and flooded them in, I'm afraid we wouldn't even be able to make swords and guns in the war!"
"What happened when you entered the customs later? After taking over the world, everyone started to eat the hard-core crops, and no one really learned about construction!"
