Yuan Huang looked at Xiao Ruxun's calm face and sighed deeply.
"Ji Xin, what you said, are these your own thoughts, or is it someone else's plan for you?"
Xiao Ruxun said, "My own thoughts."
Yuan Huang nodded.
"Then do you know that everything you want to do is extremely dangerous? If you're not careful, you'll lose everything? The safety of the world depends on you. You've tied everyone in the world to yourself. If anything happens to you, or if you make any mistakes, do you know the consequences?"
Xiao Ruxun took a few steps slowly.
"I know, I know what the worst result is. What I'm doing now is not much different from what Wang Mang did, but I have no other choice. This is the only path I can take, and I must take it to the end. Daming the world is rotten to the core. If I don't take action, someone else will. Daming, it's hopeless."
Yuan Huang walked up to Xiao Ruxun and looked at him seriously.
"Isn't everything you're doing out of your own selfishness? Isn't it because you want more power? Isn't it because you want to be the emperor? "
"I like power. I want power and I want to do all this. It is indeed this desire that drives me. Deacon Yuan, I have never denied it in front of you."
Xiao Ruxun replied, "But at the same time, if I want to hold this power steadily, I have to stabilize the Divine Huaxia and develop steadily. Only in this way can I hold power and enjoy it smoothly. Therefore, I want power, but I also want the country to be strong and prosperous, and the people to live in peace.
If I continue to maintain the Daming world, I have to be cautious in everything I do. People will continue to starve to death, and people will continue to lose their homes and become refugees. How many refugees can Myanmar accommodate? How many people will starve to death every year in Myanmar?
But Sir Yuan, in the past three years, not a single person has starved to death in Myanmar. I will also set this as my goal and promote it to the whole of China. I am confident that I can do it. Although my methods are a little cruel, to deal with those blood-sucking worms, is it useful to speak nicely?
It was useless. They would never hand over what was in their hands. They didn't care about the lives of the farmers at the bottom. Even if a knife was placed on their necks, they wouldn't hand over their lifeblood. Humans died for wealth, and birds died for food. This was an unchanging rule. Therefore, they had to die.
I'm making a revolution. This revolution isn't just about one dynasty or one generation, but it's about the world. I'll change something that has lasted since the Qin and Han Dynasties until now. I won't limit my vision to the Divine Prefecture. The hope to break this shackle is above the sea. "
Yuan Huang shook his head.
"What you said is too broad and vague. Do you know how difficult it is to do it? How much suffering have we suffered since we started our business in Myanmar? The difficulty of reorganizing the world is several times more difficult than starting our business in Myanmar. Have you thought about it?
In this broken world, starving people are everywhere, and refugees are everywhere. If we don't pay attention, there will be a civil revolt, a civil revolt that will shake the foundation of the country! Can you do what the ruler of a country wants to do? Do you know what to do? Do you know where to start? "
"Start with the word 'repair'."
Xiao Ruxun answered Yuan Huang with one word, which made Yuan Huang very confused.
"Repair? Repair what? "
"Repair roads, cities, embankments, schools, and palaces."
Yuan Huang was stunned.
Xiao Ruxun continued, "Mobilize the army and refugees to repair roads, cities, houses, and palaces. The world is broken and needs to be repaired on a large scale. This is the key to breaking the current situation. The central government will allocate funds, the officials will manage the army, and the refugees will be mobilized to join the army to repair the world.
Sir Yuan, I've said that I'm very rich now. The world has just stabilized, and it's indeed very unstable. Danger lurks everywhere. Where will the danger come from? From the people! When the hearts of the people change, it's easy for danger to occur. The way to make people unable to change is to make them busy, so that they have no time to think about change.
Repair roads, cities, houses, and palaces. If they work, they'll have food to eat. If they don't work, they won't have food to eat. Using work as relief, not only can we repair the broken world, we can also gather refugees and starving people. It's easier to manage them, so that they won't lose control. It can also make them busy, and they won't have time to think about change. It can also make them full so that they won't starve to death.
To the army and officials, this will be a huge project. The army has to manage the refugees and starving people, so the army is also very busy. The officials have to be in charge of the construction site, so the officials are also very busy. It can also be used to train the army and officials. It's now the middle of winter, and there's no need for spring plowing. Everything can start.
As long as I have money, I can let them settle down in the shortest time and let them have something to do. As long as they have something to do, as long as they are busy, they won't have time to think about other things. During this period of time, I can gather my advisors to set up a new system for the new dynasty, new rules, and all sorts of other things can be set up.
When the roads are repaired, the cities are repaired, the houses are repaired, the system is perfected, and the rules are set up. The world will be stable, and wherever the roads are repaired, there will be stability. People are chaotic because they have nothing to do. As long as they have something to do, they will have to work hard to earn a living, and they won't have time to think about anything else. "
Xiao Ruxun took in a deep breath, "Repairing roads, cities, houses, and palaces is also cultivating the hearts of the people, and the world."
Yuan Huang frowned.
He realized that he couldn't find a better way to deal with it.
Let people be busy, let people have something to do, let people have something to look forward to, let people settle down, let people settle down, and then the world will be stable.
He had enough to eat, but not that much. He had work to do, but it wasn't that easy. He had to pay taxes, but it wasn't to the point where he didn't have enough to eat. Every year, he would have enough money to do other things.
People will settle down, and the society will be stable.
Work for relief was actually the same principle, but the effect of work for relief in previous dynasties wasn't very good. It was nothing more than a lack of money, corruption of officials, and so on.
But as long as there was money, they could steadily get through the most turbulent period at the beginning of the country. Put the military officials and the people together, and it was easy to supervise and restrain each other, so that no one would have other thoughts in their hearts.
Assign tasks to the places that each army and each official was responsible for. As the roads were extended, the power of the new Daqin Dynasty could extend to the local areas, from the center to the local areas bit by bit. Wherever the roads were built, the power of the central government would extend there. It could also eliminate the landlords, redivide the land, and redo the census.
Bring the people who had been hidden by the landlords into the census of the court, and it could also play the role of straightening out the civil affairs and increasing the tax revenue. In the end, the new dynasty could completely control the whole world. As long as they got through this period, the new dynasty's control over the world would be unparalleled.
That would be an incomparably strong and solid dynasty. The only problem was that there must be enough money. But as for money, Xiao Ruxun had enough money. The money from confiscating property and the money from doing business, Yuan Huang had enough reason to believe that Xiao Ruxun would not be short of money, and that he would have more and more money.
