"Ordinary people account for 10% of the world's wealth, aristocratic families and landlords account for 40%, Buddhism accounts for 30%, Taoism accounts for 10%, and the royal family accounts for 10%?"
Chen Yun frowned and asked, "Is there such a thing?
It’s not that the world belongs to the family. Even the world belongs to the emperor. How come he only accounts for 10% of it? "
Ordinary people only account for 10% of the share, which Chen Yun understands.
From ancient times to the present, even if the population share of ordinary people accounts for 90% of the total population, in terms of wealth, the combined wealth of all ordinary people accounts for less than 10% of the entire country or the world.
This is the truth!
As for the wealth in the world, in his past knowledge, the wealthy families must have the highest number.
Wealthy landlords are not the kind who can be called landlords if they have more than ten acres of land. At least they have to own land in several villages or towns to be called landlords.
[In our hometown, the land we farmed belonged to a small landowner. His land occupied half of the town, and the fields in more than a dozen villages belonged to him.
Those like this are considered small landowners. 】
Therefore, when it comes to the proportion of property, aristocratic families and wealthy landlords account for a relatively high proportion, so he believes that even a 40% share is considered reasonable in his opinion.
But the royal family only accounts for 10% of the share, which is too exaggerated!
“10% of the share is too much!
If the feudal kings from various places had not occupied some land, they might not even be able to occupy Chengdu!
The imperial court now only receives three to four million taels of silver from taxes every year.
You must know that in the founding year of the People's Republic of China, Emperor Taizu was considerate of the people and collected very little taxes. In this way, the annual tax revenue exceeded 70 million taels of silver.
But now, hundreds of years have passed, the taxes imposed on the people have increased, but the annual tax revenue of the state treasury is only three to four million taels. How ridiculous is this! "
What Fu Tianchou said was not exaggerated or concealed at all, at least he did not have such thoughts in his heart.
Chen Yun instantly understood what was going on. It was similar to the late Ming Dynasty.
In the early years of the Ming Dynasty, Emperor Hongwu collected tens of millions of taels of silver per year in taxes. By the end of the Ming Dynasty, Emperor Chongzhen only collected several million taels of silver per year.
Who can I talk to to reason with you?
No one can reason with him. After all, everyone in the court is a wealthy landowner and a representative of a wealthy family.
"I see!"
However, having said that, there are some things that Chen Yun still needs to ask clearly: "Why is the royal family so miserable, while the world's aristocratic families and wealthy landlords only account for 40% of the wealth?
Doesn't this make sense? "
Fu Tianchou smiled bitterly: "Human King, in this world, although under the protection of the ancestors of the human race, I can still live comfortably.
But after all, in addition to human ancestors, there are also immortal Buddhas in this world!
Fortunately for the immortals, after leaving the mortal world, they don't miss the human world too much. The most important thing is that the ancestors of the human race are more wary of the forces of immortals and gods.
Therefore, it is difficult for immortals to descend to the mortal world!
Therefore, Taoism only accounts for 10% of the world's wealth, just like ordinary people and the royal family have the same share.
But Buddhism is good at amassing money, has a backer, and is very popular in the human world. Although it is suspected of deceiving people, it is difficult for human laws to take the initiative to control them without coercion.
People who are outsiders do not need to be taxed or do corvee labor. In the year of great disaster, they will definitely come out to collect a lot of land at a very small price.
Even if dynasties change, they can still inherit these lands as time goes by, until now this Buddhist sect accounts for 30% of the world's wealth! "
After all that, if Chen Yun still didn't understand, he was definitely pretending to be stupid, so he looked at Fu Tianchou:
"You are indeed very loyal!
But I’m afraid I can’t refuse your conspiracy!
But aren't you afraid that I will kill you? "
At this point, everyone present understood that although Fu Tianchou was forced to offer advice under pressure, in fact the plan he came up with was a conspiracy!
Moreover, it seemed that Fu Tianchou had definitely done his homework before coming here. Zhang Beihai was definitely not the only one to be able to see such a thing as the lack of food in Jinhua Mansion. There were many people in the world who could see it.
Among them was Fu Tianchou.
But now, Fu Tianchou's strategy is very simple, which is to drive the tiger and swallow the wolf. In the end, it is best for both sides to lose.
Employing human kings to challenge Buddhism, whose orthodoxy has stood for thousands of years, wants to destroy Buddhism and steal money, food, and women... (I’ve said it before) Ahem, it will definitely shock the hearts of the world.
To put it mildly, he was able to raid Buddhism today, and to put it mildly, he robbed Buddhism of its wealth and food.
So if he is allowed to capture other cities and other state capitals, will he rob the wealth and food of those state capitals, aristocratic families, landlords and wealthy families?
No one can say for sure!
It is impossible to say that this is the ultimate goal of Fu Tianchou, the Minister of War.
Sure enough, scholars in this era can become such a big official and plan every step.
"Your Majesty, you have to make this move!"
Fu Tianchou stopped pretending and said it clearly.
What he meant was that Chen Yun was asked to destroy the Buddha. He had to destroy it, and it had to be destroyed!
As soon as Chen Yun was asked to destroy Buddhism and take away the food and wealth of Buddhism in Jinhua Prefecture, he would be separated from the aristocratic families and wealthy landlords in other state capitals in the world.
Previously, the major state capitals could even open the city gates and tie up the local city defense officers to present the city as long as they heard that the Human King wanted to take over the city. The trend disappeared from the moment he destroyed the Buddha.
It may even arouse the hostility of aristocratic families, wealthy landlords, and Buddhist and Taoist sects all over the world.
If the Emperor of Liang Kingdom is added behind these people, they almost represent the entire human world!
When the time comes, it’s still unclear who will be named the Human King!
This is the plan that Fu Tianchou, the Minister of War of the Daliang Kingdom, made for the Emperor of Daliang, and it was a conspiracy that had to be followed!
Because if he doesn’t take this step, he will have no money or food!
If he doesn't rob Buddhism, he can only rob aristocratic families or wealthy landlords. He can only choose one of the two.
Because you have hundreds of thousands of people who need to eat, and they are all watching you, so you have to choose one.
Fu Tianchou was imprisoned!
This was the result of his benevolence. Even if Qingfeng and Yuechi knelt in front of Chen Yun's study all afternoon, they could not change this result.
Wen Xi sighed: "Destroying the Buddha is not impossible. There have been emperors who have destroyed the Buddha before!
However, most of your dynasties will not last long after they are destroyed!
Although the emperor has luck in the world, Buddhism in the world not only has some luck in the world and cultural background, but also has merit!
Although Buddhist scriptures have the ability to confuse people's hearts, it is precisely this deception that, at least among ordinary Buddhist monks in the Central Plains, leads people to do good.
This is merit!
Thousands of years of merit leading people to do good are like mountains and oceans.
Once the emperor wanted to destroy the Buddha, it was usually because of money and food.
Since it was because of money and food that he had the intention to destroy the Buddha, it proves that he, as an emperor, is not actually doing a very good job!
In terms of merit, it is not as good as the entire Buddhist sect!
This battle between merits is like two strong men fighting each other or two fighting dogs fighting each other.
Just arrogant, as long as you are taller and stronger than him, he will obey you!
If you can't compete with him, you rely on the energy of the human world as your backing and forcibly destroy its carrier, Buddhism!
They also took money and food from Buddhism, and in the end the merits counterattacked, which could easily cause big problems!
This is the secret plot of Fu Shangshu hidden under the surface of conspiracy! "
