Chapter 1608: Fight In the face of Wang Hua, Ye Chunqiu will never be perfunctory, and these words can be regarded as his sincere words.
And Wang Hua was silent, he knew that Ye Chunqiu had something to say.
It is a well-known fact that the power of the Zhenguo government comes from the merchants.
But businessmen and scholars are not allowed, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is the same situation, after all, this is the world dominated by scholars, and even more, a businessman without the support of the gentry can be killed and robbed of life almost at will, of course, the premise is to find a good excuse, after all, it is two official words, saying that you are guilty, and you dare not admit it As the merchants' business became bigger and bigger, especially some big chaebols, with the help of the Zhenguo government to complete the most primitive capital accumulation, their money has begun to increase like a snowball, and there are some wealthy merchants, whose wealth can be described as rivaling the country, but because of this, the scholars have become more and more disgusted with them, and this disgust has been brewed and may erupt at any time.
This time, it may be that someone is fanning the flames behind it, but no one can guarantee that there will be spontaneous anti-business sentiment next time.
Ye Chunqiu sighed, and then continued: "Have you ever thought about why the scholars are so hostile to Shang Jia In fact, the little son-in-law also has some ideas, and the root of this may not come from the Four Books and Five Classics, you must know that before the Qin and Han dynasties, the status of Shang Jia was not low, and the reason why it is like this today is just because Shang Jia is useless." ” "Useless" Wang Hua heard Ye Chunqiu's novel theory, but his heart became moved.
Ye Chunqiu nodded and said: "Yes, it's useless, the businessmen need the scholars, they need the protection of the scholars, only with the influence of the scholars in the local area, the businessmen can settle down, so in essence, the businessmen must stammer, in this kind of knotting process, but there is a problem, obviously this person has more wealth, and his life is even more prosperous, but he wants to tie up an ordinary talent or a person who may only have a few hundred acres of land at home, obviously a county order, A year's salary is only barely enough for food, clothing, shelter and transportation, and there is no extra wealth, if he is really honest, he may still be hungry, but if he is not honest, this corrupt and perverted thing, can not see the light, where like those businessmen, wealth accumulation is extremely fast, spending money like earth, if you are willing to be high-profile, it is a servant like a cloud, and there are many people. ” "This inevitably makes people feel unjust, you stammered me, you have to beg me to be safe, but why are you better than me?"
Ye Chunqiu looked at Wang Hua's expression of listening carefully, and continued: "So the businessmen naturally became the objects of casual contempt, contempt, and even bullying by the eunuchs. ” "Now it's time to publicly recommend the first assistant, but the situation is very different, the first assistant is of course decided by the reader, but to be public, if you want people to know the candidate for the first assistant, to beat his competitors, then you need silver, and you need a lot of silver, this is a lot of money, this silver depends on the reader to come out of them they are not willing to come out, then it can be to let the businessmen come, so, the businessmen have the value of use at this time, you refuse to give me benefits, I will support others, with a lot of silver to completely knock you down."
"You have to ask for a lot of silver" Wang Hua frowned, feeling very incomprehensible.
But Ye Chunqiu's understanding is enough, in this era when information is not developed enough, if the candidate Shoufu wants to increase the winning rate, he must make his image deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, so how to penetrate into the hearts of the people Ye Chunqiu didn't continue to explain too much at this time, because Ye Chunqiu knew that this old Taishan would soon know the mystery.
After the public promotion, it means that the businessmen can use their own financial resources to increase their influence among the candidates for the first assistant, which is undoubted, and the most important thing is that at that time, who will dare to continue to create anti-business sentiment If you continue to be anti-business, the businessmen with strong financial resources can try their best to pull you down.
Ye Chunqiu immediately chuckled and said: "Of course, at the moment, the son-in-law has to ask for Taishan's head, Lord Taishan, and now the new deal is imminent, and the public promotion of the first assistant is only in the evening, the son-in-law hopes that Lord Taishan can come forward and compete with Li Gong, if Li Gong is still in power, then all the calculations of the son-in-law will be in vain." ” Wang Hua was surprised by these words, Wang Hua said in surprise: "The old man no, no, the old man's reputation is far inferior to that of Li Gong, if the old man is unwilling, there is really no comparison, Li Gong's reputation is too high, after all, he is a veteran of the Three Dynasties, whether it is seniority or popularity, it is not comparable to the old man." ” "You can give it a try."
Ye Chunqiu had to show a confident look, and encouraged: "At least Lord Taishan's reputation has always been good, I have probably calculated, the world's scholars, there may be eighty percent of those who support Li Gong, but at least two percent are in favor of Lord Taishan, although it is a little worse, but it may not be that there is no chance to swim against the current, anyway, the real public push can only have results after two or three months, at this time, there can still be a lot of things to do Lord Taishan, the son-in-law has come to this point, it is already a ruin, if Li Dongyang succeeds to the position of first assistant." , the son-in-law will definitely have no good fruit to eat in the future. ” How could Ye Chunqiu not know that Wang Hua had always treated him like his own son, so he hoped to push Wang Hua to a higher achievement because of this kindness, not to mention his grievances with Li Dongyang. also because he knew that Wang Hua valued him, Ye Chunqiu deliberately said it very seriously, as if he really wanted Li Dongyang to continue to be in power, and he was going to finish.
Wang Hua heard Ye Chunqiu say that there were two percent of those who supported him, and he smiled bitterly in his heart, the difference between eighty percent and two percent was too great, this was basically a moth to a fire, and it was a humiliation for himself.
But looking at Ye Chunqiu's pleading face, Wang Hua couldn't bear it, and didn't refuse anymore, but said: "Hey, you yourself said that the odds of winning are not high, could it be that you have any ideas" Ye Chunqiu saw that Wang Hua's attitude had relaxed, and immediately cheered up, and said: "There are ideas, and there are many more, Li Dongyang's biggest disadvantage is actually that he is not familiar with the rules of public recommendation, he can be a qualified cabinet first assistant scholar, but if you talk about how to win people's hearts, a hundred Li Gong, I'm afraid it can't match me, and my son-in-law has experience in this." ” Although there is a little bit of bragging, but Ye Chunqiu is more or less, he really has a little confidence, no matter what, there is no possibility if he doesn't fight, at least if he fights, there will still be a chance. aa2705221:
