Two days later.
Ji Heng walked towards the hut again.
Hu Hai had been waiting for a long time, but he looked a little embarrassed.
There are two major cases in the house.
On one of the tables were two jugs of wine.
Ji Heng glanced lightly, sat down on the floor, and shook the wine bottle.
Portions are generous.
"I'm not going to cheat in this regard." Hu Hai smiled awkwardly, glanced at a wall, and then changed the subject and said, "What are you going to talk about today?"
Ji Heng thought for a moment and said slowly: "Let's talk about the reform."
"This is the last part of the world situation."
“And the most tangible part.”
"At the beginning of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the world was completely in chaos. As the heroes fought for hegemony, a large number of vassal states were destroyed, eventually forming the Seven Kingdoms."
"The seven countries can stand out for their own reasons."
"The key is to seek change!"
Ji Heng's expression remained as usual.
When he saw the two jugs of wine, he knew that Mr. Ji had found out that the partition wall really had ears.
But he didn't point it out.
Also unintentionally pointed out.
He talks about metaphysical things.
Those who can understand will naturally understand. If they cannot understand, they will still be confused even after listening to it all.
Because he was talking about the outline of the great changes in Zhou and Qin!
True.
He can talk about some physical things.
For example, talking about how to increase productivity, or improve farming methods, and make papermaking, compass, gunpowder, printing, etc. available in advance, but in the end it will not change anything.
In a world of centralized power, stability and conservatism will be the mainstream in the future. As long as the trend remains unchanged, no matter how many things are invented, they will eventually be lost to the world.
Likewise in later generations.
Gunpowder is used to make fireworks.
Compasses are used in Feng Shui.
The advent of papermaking and printing will not promote social progress. It will only make the bottom class more suppressed. It will also accelerate the monopoly of knowledge by the top class, making the world's policies that dumb and tire the people more thorough.
The prosperity of hundreds of schools of thought comes from the fact that the emperor lost his official position and learned from the barbarians.
With the unification of the world, unified thought has become a consensus. Now there are still books among the people, and people at the bottom can still study. When these things come out, the violent weapon of the court will be further strengthened, and the bottom will increasingly lose their right to speak.
To the point of becoming a real fool.
This is not the world's luck.
This is something Ji Heng doesn't want to see.
The only thing he can do is to let the world know that this change is not over yet.
To truly end it, everything needs to change.
It's just the beginning now.
"Seeking change?" Hu Hai whispered, not very interested.
partition.
Fusu's heart moved slightly.
"Change?"
"Is this the reform you were talking about before?"
"Change the country, change governance, change livelihoods, and change the people."
“The implications of changing the world’s civilization!”
"It's just that you want to change too much. Da Qin's changes have caused the world to boil, and you want to change even more."
"But I also want to hear what you think of change!"
Ji Heng retracted his gaze, narrowed his eyes slightly, held a wine bottle in one hand, and patted the big case with the other, and said: "It is said in Zhouyi: 'Easy, the poor change, change leads to generalization, generality leads to prosperity'."
"The world is changing all the time, and you and I are changing all the time."
"That's what people do."
"The same goes for countries."
"When the Zhou Dynasty divided the world, there were more than a hundred princes. However, within five hundred years, there were only dozens of princes left in the world. By the time of the Warring States Period, there were only a dozen or so. The fundamental reason is that these princely countries have lacked changes."
"If you are poor and do not think about change, you will be abandoned by the world."
"When the Qin Dynasty did not change, it was poor and weak, and was almost divided by the world."
"When Duke Xiao and Lord Shang carried out their reforms and thoroughly reorganized the Qin State for more than twenty years, it was as if the Qin State had been rebuilt, from a poor and weak country that had been bullied to a powerful tiger and wolf country."
Hear the words.
Hu Hai sat upright.
His eyes were very solemn and solemn.
Ji Heng glanced at it lightly, but did not take it seriously, and continued: "Under the reforms of Duke Xiao and Lord Shang, Qin completely rose to prominence and laid the foundation of Tiger and Wolf in one fell swoop. In the Spring and Autumn Period, Zheng, Wu, The more you wait for the country, the more it gradually disappears into the world."
"why?"
"It's because we are stuck in the old ways and don't want to be flexible, and we are eventually abandoned by the times."
"If there is no way to govern the world, the country will not follow the ancient laws."
"The world must change."
"If things remain unchanged, something will happen to the world."
"Therefore, since the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, all countries have been actively reforming."
"The reason why countries take the initiative to seek change is that the court wants to control the variables here."
"That's all."
"Only in this way can the power of the imperial court be kept intact."
"I won't talk too much. I will mainly talk about the Seven Kingdoms."
"The Seven Kingdoms have all changed throughout history."
"Perhaps the seven countries' reforms have only one purpose."
"It's about trying to be strong."
"When trying to strengthen one's power, one should govern according to the customs and according to the place."
"By solving the most difficult problems within each country, we can then maximize our strength."
"Among them, Wei had Li Kui's reform, Chu had Wu Qi's reform, Qi had Zou Ji's reform, Korea had Shen Buha's reform, Qin had Shang Yang's reform, Zhao had Hu Fu's riding and shooting, and Yan had Le Yi's reform."
"There were reforms in the seven states of the Warring States Period."
"From the reforms in various countries, it is not difficult to see that the emphasis and severity of each country are different, so the reform results are also different. Because of this, there are different laws and regulations, and the customs of different places are very different."
"It is precisely because of the different directions of reform in various countries that everything in the world is different."
"The Qin Dynasty was ordered by heaven to unify China, but due to the different customs in various places, it is difficult to achieve true unification."
"Now that Da Qin is relying on pressure to implement it, it is naturally unpopular with the people and is also blocked."
"If we want to reduce assistance, minimize internal friction, and reduce the difficulty of unification, we can only adapt to local conditions and find opportunities for breakthroughs from the reforms of various countries. Only in this way can the 'cultural system' be smoothly implemented."
"And that's what I'm talking about today."
"political reform!"
"Know yourself and your enemy, and you can fight a hundred battles without danger."
"Only by knowing where the 'difference' in Kanto lies, can we truly prescribe the right medicine."
"Otherwise, it will be like the Qin court now, which will implement it wholesale and the people will resist fiercely. After all, the Guandong nobles are still there, and the customs in different places are very different. How can we easily succeed if we want them to change their customs?"
Hear the words.
Hu Hai nodded.
He now feels that the court is too hasty.
partition.
Fusu thought thoughtfully and whispered: "By learning from the reforms of the six countries, we can find out the problems in various places, and then seize this loophole to differentiate the cultural system promoted by Da Qin to a certain extent, and use these breakthroughs to penetrate , and finally allowed various places to accept the Qin system and Qin government."
"Use a point to make the surface, use a point to break the surface."
"This method is indeed the safest and most easily accepted by all parts of Kanto."
"Ji Heng is truly a talented person!"
Fusu was filled with admiration.
