"Old Liu, you got up very early."

As soon as Su Jing came to the living room, she already saw Liu Bowen sitting in the yard.

In fact, this meeting is not too late. According to the 24-hour time system, it is about eight o'clock in the morning.

This is also because it is almost winter, so Su Jing gets up at this time.

In the summer, I get up before seven o'clock.

Because it's too hot.

And now it's because it's too cold.

"Master Su, young people sleep well."

Liu Bowen said with some envy.

Su Jing smiled and said: "Develop good eating habits and pay attention to daily exercise. You can do it too, Lao Liu."

"I can't, I'm old."

Liu Bowen shook his head and said.

A young man's biggest asset is his body, and Liu Bowen has already passed this time.

Su Jing smiled and said: "It doesn't matter when you get old, let's start from now on. By the way, Lao Liu, do you know Wu Qin Xi?"

Su Jing stretched her body and walked out of the door and into the yard.

"Not really."

Liu Bowen has naturally heard of Wu Qin Xi, but he doesn't know how to do it.

"Then come on, I'll teach you. It will be good for your body if you practice more."

Su Jing urged Liu Bowen.

Liu Bowen wanted to refuse, but saw that Zhu Biao and Zhu Ru had already arrived beside Su Jing.

This is not just Su Jing practicing alone, even Zhu Biao and Zhu Ru have to practice together.

"Okay, then I, Old Liu, will trouble Mr. Su."

Liu Bowen nodded, got up and came to the courtyard.

Su Jing began to teach Liu Bowen Wu Qin Xi, and he taught it very seriously.

However, unlike teaching Zhu Biao and Zhu Ji, Liu Bowen's old arms and legs are not as soft as children after all, so he still has to do some movements slowly.

Fortunately, Wu Qin Xi itself does not have any strenuous movements. Although Liu Bowen had some difficulty, he still completed it.

"Hoo~~ho~~~"

Liu Bowen took a few deep breaths and said, "Mr. Su, I'm really old, and I won't be able to do it after these few times."

If it weren't for Su Jing's assistance, Liu Bowen felt that he would never be able to finish it.

Su Jing encouraged: "Old Liu, you are already quite good at it. You actually did it the first time. Pay more attention to your diet and practice more every day. As time goes by, your body will become more flexible."

"As long as you follow these instructions, I can't guarantee you will live longer, but it won't be a problem to live for another three to five years."

What Su Jing said was quite confident.

After all, healthy and reasonable eating habits coupled with daily exercise were the only magic weapons to enhance immunity in ancient times.

It is not an exaggeration to increase life span.

"Then I'll thank Mr. Su first. When I go back, I will do the same."

Liu Bowen replied with a smile. He didn't think too much, he just thought it was Su Jing who was saying nice things.

However, Zhu Biao on the side looked very serious. Unlike Liu Bowen, he listened carefully and implemented every word Su Jing said.

Just because he was the one who stayed with Su Jing the longest, he knew deeply that what Su Jing said was not lies.

After the exercise, Su Jing went to have breakfast.

In the courtyard, Zhu Biao came to Liu Bowen and said: "Master Liu, what Master Su said, Master Liu must strictly abide by it after he returns."

"As for the diet mentioned by Master Su, Master Liu will have to inquire with Master Su later."

Seeing Zhu Biao saying this to him solemnly, Liu Bowen's face also showed something strange.

With just a thought, he realized what Zhu Biao's special warning meant.

"Master, are you saying that what Mr. Su said was not to comfort me, but that it can really extend my life?"

Liu Bowen asked Zhu Biao,

Although he knew what Zhu Biao meant, he still had to ask to feel at ease.

Zhu Biao thought for a while and said: "The students are not sure, but Master Su never tells lies. Do as he says, and you will be right."

Prolonging life has always been pursued by countless people.

Liu Bowen paused for a moment, nodded and said, "Thank you, Master, for telling me. I understand."

After a while, Su Jing came back after finishing breakfast.

Just like yesterday, Zhu Biao and Zhu Ru were studying in the courtyard, while Su Jing and Liu Bowen were in the living room.

"Master Su, when you just mentioned paying attention to your diet, how should you pay attention to it?"

Liu Bowen asked Su Jing.

After all, it is a matter of prolonging life, so it is better to ask clearly first.

Su Jing smiled and said: "This is simple, let me think about it for you."

"First of all, eat three regular meals a day. Because you are older, you should eat less salt, sugar and oil."

"In addition, daily staple foods such as rice and noodles should not be too much. One meal should be one punch. Eat more vegetables and lean meats."

"That's about it."

Su Jing didn't speak too professionally, after all, this was the Ming Dynasty.

After hearing this, Liu Bowen felt a little surprised.

Eat less salt, sugar, and oil. These are all good things. Ordinary people have to think carefully about buying them if they want to eat them.

And you should eat less rice and noodles, which are the best things to fill your stomach.

Why do you hear Su Jing saying that these are not good things anymore?

"Mr. Su, is your diet a little too much?"

"It looks a little strange, doesn't it?"

As soon as Liu Bowen opened his mouth, Su Jing interrupted him.

Su Jing certainly knew Liu Bowen's doubts.

The concept of modern healthy diet is based on modern people whose energy intake has greatly exceeded the standard.

In the Ming Dynasty, even having enough food was a luxury for most people.

When it comes to healthy eating habits, there is actually some reason not to eat minced meat.

"Indeed, at first glance, it seems to make no sense."

Su Jing continued: "I know the sufferings of the people and what their lives are like."

"In the entire Ming Dynasty, there are actually very few people who can implement my healthy diet."

"Because most people have no choice, survival is the first priority."

"Of course, what I have to tell you is that if you can really follow the diet I said, your body will definitely be better than it is now."

Liu Bowen was silent, he understood what Su Jing meant.

He is one of the few people in Ming Dynasty who can implement this healthy eating standard.

At this time, Liu Bowen thought of the class mentioned yesterday. He himself should be considered an exploiting class.

"I understand what Young Master Su said, Old Liu."

Liu Bowen cupped his hands towards Su Jing and said.

When it comes to the lofty ambition to save the world and save the people, Liu Bowen still has it in his heart.

However, now it seems that I am just one of those exploiters.

Liu Bowen's face looked a little lonely.

"Old Liu, don't think so much. I see that you think too much. This makes you unhappy and has a great impact on your health. Do you understand?"

Su Jing saw some changes in Liu Bowen's expression and comforted him.

Lao Zhu's son Zhu Biao was like this, and so was his servant Liu Bowen.

Why do everyone become so full of emotions at every turn?

"Master Su, let's continue what we did yesterday."

Liu Bowen briefly responded to his emotions and said to Su Jing.

Yesterday we just finished talking about the two forms before feudal society, primitive society and slave society.

Now it should be the form after feudal society, which is also the form that Liu Bowen wants to know most.

Things in the past can be gleaned from history books.

What happens in the future is not something ordinary people can know.

Su Jing looked at Liu Bowen and said, "Old Liu, it's okay for us to talk about the past, but the things behind are not that simple."

Su Jing did not speak very straightforwardly, but he believed that Liu Bowen could understand.

Sure enough, Liu Bowen looked solemn and said: "Mr. Su, Old Liu, I know it very well, but I implore Mr. Su to teach me."

This is Liu Bowen's pursuit, and there is only determination in his eyes.

Su Jing felt Liu Bowen's emotions from his eyes. After thinking for a while, he nodded and said, "Okay, then I will tell you about the possibilities after the feudal society continues to develop."

"Thank you Mr. Su."

Liu Bowen bowed towards Su Jing again, like a humble and studious student.

Su Jing didn't pay attention to this. He was already recalling, thinking and organizing in his mind.

"Yesterday we mentioned that slave society and feudal society have one thing in common, class exploitation. Slave society is the exploitation of slaves by slave owners, while feudal society is the exploitation of the civilian class by the landlord class."

“The difference between the two lies in the different productivity tools, resulting in different levels of productivity, and changes in the main means of production, resulting in different changes.”

“In slave society, slaves are the means of production and are owned by slave owners and directly exploit their labor force. In feudal society, the landlord class controls land, the means of production, and exploits other classes through means such as extracting land rent and usury from farmers who use the land. "

"The core reason why such a change occurred is the emergence of new productivity tools, the iron plow and the oxen plowing!"

“Productivity represents the economic base, and the economic base determines the superstructure, including class relations, the state apparatus that maintains such relations, social ideology, and corresponding political and legal systems, organizations, and facilities.”

"Therefore, the transformation of feudal society into a new social form is naturally inseparable from the improvement of productivity and new productivity tools."

"I call the transformation of iron plow and oxen farming as a symbol of the times the agricultural revolution. This is a revolution that greatly improves the efficiency of agricultural production."

"Of course, farming with iron plows and oxen is not the first agricultural revolution. Earlier, our ancestors changed from hunting and gathering to a lifestyle of planting and raising, which can also be regarded as an agricultural revolution."

"The feudal society dominated by agriculture has lasted for thousands of years, which shows that the simple agricultural revolution can no longer promote changes in the social form."

"The next transformation of social form needs to focus on industry."

Su Jing spoke slowly. In fact, it was also the first time that he reintegrated and expressed this knowledge in a way that he understood.

In the process of talking to Liu Bowen, he also gained some understanding of his own.

"Industry? Do you mean handicrafts?"

Liu Bowen asked Su Jing.

At this time, there was no modern industry in the Ming Dynasty.

"Handicrafts are part of industry, but the production efficiency of handicrafts alone is not enough."

Su Jing replied.

A simple handicraft industry with too low production capacity.

Moreover, the current handicraft industry in Ming Dynasty is mostly concentrated in light industry.

"So, this new productivity tool must have a production efficiency that far exceeds that of the handicraft industry, right, Mr. Su?"

Liu Bowen asked again.

He really listened and thought seriously.

Su Jing nodded and said: "Yes, new productivity tools that are enough to promote changes in social forms must be subversive and must break through common sense."

For the ancients, modern industry transcended common sense.

Su Jing did not say it directly because for Liu Bowen, these were too advanced.

"Master Su, this is the meaning of science."

Liu Bowen said suddenly.

This sentence immediately stunned Su Jing. He really didn't expect that Liu Bowen could connect science with this.

Have you ever mentioned science to Liu Bowen?

Liu Bowen saw Su Jing's doubts and explained: "When I chatted with the young master yesterday, he told me that Mr. Su once said that science and technology are the primary productive forces, and new productivity tools require science to be born."

"I didn't quite understand it then, but now, I do."

After hearing Liu Bowen's explanation, Su Jing couldn't help but look at Liu Bowen a few more times.

I thought I had overestimated Liu Bowen before, but now I didn't expect that I still underestimated him.

This old Liu is really awesome!

It took him a long time to learn Marxism.

Now, after listening to it for less than two days, Lao Liu can actually understand it like this. It’s amazing!

"Old Liu, I have a question for you."

Su Jing suddenly said to Liu Bowen.

Um?

Liu Bowen was slightly taken aback and said, "Master Su, please tell me. I know everything that Old Liu has to say."

Su Jing paused and said, "Odd changes to even."

After saying that, Su Jing stared at Liu Bowen, waiting for him to say the next code word.

However, after waiting for a while, there was nothing.

"Master Su, what's the problem?"

Liu Bowen looked at Su Jing with a puzzled look on his face and asked: "What kind of distortion remains unchanged? Is this a problem? Old Liu, I have little talent and knowledge, and I have never heard of it."

"really do not know?"

Su Jing asked again.

Liu Bowen shook his head and said: "I really don't know, Mr. Su, I didn't lie to you, Old Liu."

When Su Jing suddenly asked this question, Liu Bowen was also confused and couldn't understand what Su Jing was doing.

"I'm just asking casually, forget it if you don't know."

Su Jing immediately said: "It has nothing to do with you, I'm just overthinking."

Su Jing herself felt that she was too nervous, and even suspected that the old Liu in front of her was a time traveler like herself.

If this were true, it must have been discovered long ago. Is it still happening now?

It can only be said that the wisdom Liu Bowen showed was a bit beyond Su Jing's imagination.

An ancient man, after listening to Marxist theory, was able to understand and accept it, and even had his own ideas.

this is too scary!

Liu Bowen breathed a sigh of relief, as long as it had nothing to do with him.

If something happened to Su Jing and she didn't tell herself, it would be uncomfortable.
