Being tired is naturally very tiring.
With Lao Zhu, a workaholic, in front of him, Zhu Yunzhen will certainly not indulge himself in pleasure.
But fortunately, the body of seven or eight years old is really full of energy.
It's like you don't feel tired at all, and even if you are extremely tired, you can feel as good as before when you wake up.
This is the vitality that belongs only to teenagers!
Zhu Yunzhen cherishes this feeling. In his last life, he clearly experienced the feeling of gradually declining energy.
If we don’t take advantage of the abundant energy and time we have now to build the Ming Dynasty.
Then when he grows up, where will he find the time to eat, drink, have fun, and indulge in pleasure?
If Lao Zhu knew what he was really thinking, he would probably be extremely speechless.
After Zhu Yunxuan and Xu Miaojin watched the show, they each returned to their respective residences.
Tomorrow, there are still a lot of things waiting for him to do.
…………
early morning.
Zhu Yunxuan opened the latest edition of People's Daily while eating his breakfast.
Look at the current news and various articles published above.
This was a habit he gradually developed.
Although he decided to start People's Daily, the content was actually handled by Daoyan monk Yao Guangxiao.
Zhu Yunzhen actually didn't know the specific content.
I only know a general direction. After all, People's Daily still shoulders a heavy political task.
The propaganda team is a subtle means of going deep into the countryside, while the People's Daily is a vane that releases signals openly.
The two complement each other and stick firmly to the propaganda slogan.
Regarding the importance of propaganda, Zhu Yunxuan understood it better than anyone else in the Ming Dynasty.
Everything can be left to others to do, but only to promote this point, Zhu Yunzhen must personally check it!
Therefore, in the People's Daily, he never fails to publish.
As soon as a new issue comes out, he will read it immediately, make annotations, and hand it over to Yao Guangxiao for improvement.
The main content of this latest issue of People's Daily is still focused on acquiring, dividing and rectifying land across the country.
This is the biggest event in the recent history of the imperial court.
Therefore, People's Daily discusses this issue every issue.
This important tool of public opinion propaganda has always been controlled by the gentry.
He even used this to threaten the imperial power.
Anyone who dares to offend their interests will be infamy for eternity.
There are countless similar examples.
The emperor who worked hard to rule the country wanted to establish a clear record of history, but because he violated the interests of the vested classes and the so-called scholars, he suffered a lot of infamy after his death.
Even though he was stronger than Qin Shihuang, he was scolded for thousands of years for "burning books and entrapping Confucians".
The emergence of People's Daily made the tool of public opinion directly controlled by the imperial power for the first time.
There is no need to rely on scholars anymore.
You know, those people's interpretations are usually distorted.
Only choose what is beneficial to you.
If it is not good for them, they will do everything possible to attack, distort, and throw dirty water on them.
Now, they can't splash it even if they want to.
Because every issue of People's Daily will provide detailed reports, interviews, and explanations.
Use simple, easy-to-understand language and text, and use the people below to explain clearly.
In addition, newspapers and periodicals also conducted a large number of exclusive interviews.
This is to make it more down-to-earth, and it can also serve as a window for the court to understand the real thoughts of the people.
Zhu Yunzhen looked along bit by bit.
The first one is an exclusive interview with ordinary farmers.
The farmer was a little confused about the land reform initiated by the imperial court.
I don’t know what the court wants to do.
He did know the news, but he didn't understand it, and his understanding was very superficial.
At the same time, he did not express much opinion on the imperial decree. He just said that we would wait and see the situation after the specific policies were implemented.
If it's good, support it.
If it's bad, object to it.
This kind of thinking can represent almost 80% of farmers, and their thinking is very simple.
If it can bring benefits to me, then I will listen to you. If you make it difficult for me, then it will be against you.
Very simple, yet very practical.
"The people's wisdom of the Ming Dynasty still needs to be strengthened..." Zhu Yunzhen had no intention of fooling the people.
Only by opening up people's wisdom can more and more talents emerge in Ming Dynasty.
Take advantage of the turbulent changes in the world in the future.
Zhu Yunzhen would never choose to fool the people even though he knew the consequences of fooling the people.
But enlightening people's wisdom is a long-term and even long-term matter.
"Now we can only hope that the newly established propaganda team can be effective..."
After Zhu Yunxuan saw the new play rehearsed by the propaganda troupe, he had them go to the countryside and perform it in one village after another.
At the same time, he also asked the King of Chu to continue to look for new troupes to join the preaching group.
Zhu Yunxuan promised that these troupes who joined the propaganda troupe would be freed from humble status in the future, and if they did well, they could even be given knighthoods.
Become the powerful class they dream of.
Since ancient times, there have been scholars, farmers, industry and merchants, but actors are untouchables whose status is even lower than that of craftsmen and merchants.
Belongs to the ninth rank.
Scorned and shameless by the world.
In particular, the Ming Dynasty compiled a detailed yellow book in which all birthplaces were recorded. As long as you have a lowly status, your descendants will have a lowly status for generations to come.
Not being allowed to take the imperial examination to become an official is equivalent to blocking the path to advancement.
Now that they knew there was a possibility of escaping from their humble status, these actors were naturally full of energy and performed like crazy.
Help Zhu Yunxuan with things.
And despite the actor's low status, no matter what era, the influence of actors among the people is not low.
Zhu Yunzhen can be regarded as exerting their greatest value.
In addition to actors, there are also some people who also belong to low status, such as slaves, hired workers, Lehu and so on.
Zhu Yunxuan also paid special attention to it.
Mainly, many of these people belong to the urgently needed labor force.
Strictly speaking, Ming Dynasty did not lack labor.
But farmers have a natural resistance to leaving their hometowns to work elsewhere.
It's great to be at home, but it's hard to go out.
On the contrary, it is those slaves, hired workers, paid households and the like who travel everywhere, eat hundreds of meals, and wander around all the time, so they can be easily mobilized.
Only with their guidance can farmers be mobilized.
After watching it, I then watched Landlords and Gentlemen.
It would not be too difficult for the imperial court to take over land from ordinary people.
After all, the people are weak and the court gives you money to redeem the land. You have no reason to resist, and you don't have much intention to resist.
Why bother?
But it is possible for the landlords and gentry to do so.
Selling the land to the court would bring huge profits!
Therefore, in the hearts of these landlords, they are not that resistant, and they feel pain and happiness at the same time.
After all, that’s a lot of money!
The Ming Dynasty was only a few decades old, and the landlords did not have much surplus food in their homes.
Suddenly faced with so much money, it was impossible to say that he was completely unmoved.
"It seems that land reform is not a big problem...but we still have to find ways to continue to eliminate the resistance in the hearts of landowners."
"In today's Ming Dynasty, it is best if there is no chaos but no chaos."
Zhu Yunzhen thought secretly in his heart.
The landlord's emotions were still under control, and most of the worries in Zhu Yunzhen's heart suddenly disappeared.
And this is not only true for the landlord in the People's Daily, but also the information Zhu Yunzhen learned from all aspects.
Just listen to one side and you will be dark, listen to both and you will be clear.
Zhu Yunzhen did not completely believe the information he learned from his subordinates.
Rather, it takes multiple observations to make the best judgment.
Otherwise, you may make wrong judgments because some of your subordinates want to cater to you!
Fortunately, this situation does not currently occur.
After reading the interview with the landlord, Zhu Yunzhen looked at the interview with the servant farmer.
This is a group that has benefited completely. The servant farmers who originally made a living by renting land have to bear not only high rents, but also high taxes.
Add the two together and life becomes extremely difficult.
Ordinary people can save surplus grain in three years, but it may take ten years for domestic farmers.
And this has to be under God’s good will!
Therefore, as soon as the imperial decree came out, the servant farmers immediately raised their hands and agreed.
Because firstly, the court would help them to terminate the old contract for renting land, and secondly, although they could not get money, they could get free land.
From now on, you only need to bear one land tax.
For them, life suddenly became easier!
Of course they couldn't be more welcome.
In this exclusive interview in People's Daily, the domestic farmers' views are exactly the same.
I am full of expectations for this decree from the imperial court.
At the same time, I began to be full of expectations for my future life.
Generally speaking, the situation of land reform is very good. As long as Zhu Yunzhen can lay the groundwork once, no one dares to reach out this time.
Block the implementation of the imperial decree.
"It seems that the pilot projects in Yingtian Mansion and Suzhou Mansion can be implemented!"
Suzhou Prefecture was selected because the situation here is the most complicated, while Yingtian Prefecture was selected because the capital had the best control.
Don't be afraid even if something unexpected happens.
Zhu Yunzhen had an idea in his mind.
Put down the People's Daily.
Prepare to attend today's morning meeting to announce that land reform has officially entered the implementation stage!
The time has come.
No need to wait any longer!
