Qin Shaoyou understood that some people have begun to look forward to it now.

To be honest, today, the world has changed.

This change is more than just a simple lifestyle.

The most important thing is the changes in economic structure.

The soil on which the gentry relies on for survival is actually in danger. Regarding this, almost all the high sects realize the problem.

On the one hand, the Sui Dynasty held the imperial examination. Although the imperial examination was held, the court still compromised with the gentry and the family, so freaks such as the resignation appeared. However, the general trend was irreversible, and the system of the ninth-rank Zhongzheng system and the system of filial and honest people had completely declined.

On the other hand, it is due to the improvement of technical level, which leads to a decrease in the price of books.

Before the Jin Dynasty, the essential reason why the wealthy families were everywhere and monopolized everything was that most of the cultural knowledge at that time was recorded on bamboo slips and cloth. Even if paper appeared, the price remained high. In addition, although printing technology had already appeared, it did not form a scale, which meant that the cost of printing was unattainable.

Before the Sui and Tang Dynasties, education was almost a particularly luxurious thing. Except for the gentry and local tyrants, the other ordinary people had almost no possibility of knowing the words and lying. They were just a group of "beasts" limited to ten miles, ignoring the big words, and only the sunrise and setting eyes were only "beasts" who were sunrise and powerful. The children of the gentry and powerful began to learn from their childhood and were trained by their elders. Their advantages were infinitely greater than those of poor families.

This advantage means that no ruler can use other people to replace the gentry and family to rule the world, and the emperor will never allow a group of civilians who are ignorant of their words to manage the place. The emperor always has only one choice, either the gentry or the powerful. At that time, the emperor wanted to settle down. The only way he could use was to create some internal strife between the gentry and the gentry. He had no choice from the beginning.

The spread of knowledge began to become popular, or in other words, some people with a wealthy family gradually had the opportunity to get in touch with books. The monopoly of the gentry on cultural origin became precarious because at this time, for the rulers, they had already had a new choice, and this choice was not necessarily the meaning of you gentry and family. This was the meaning of opening the imperial examination. Because the imperial examination and because it was no longer out of reach, a group of poor children gradually stood out. The only thing the gentry could do was to recruit them as disciples and old officials.

It’s just this kind of alliance. Obviously, it is not unbreakable. In this world connected by clans and blood ties, when he is not a blood kin, he wants to completely control it. It is not that simple.

Immediately afterwards, the one who truly shook the status of the gentry was Wu Zetian. Wu Zetian ascended the throne and began to appoint a large number of cruel officials in order to attack dissidents, and these cruel officials severely attacked the economic foundation of the gentry.

The third disaster that is still in front of the gentry is still there, that is, the rise of the Shence Mansion.

If the Shence Mansion came into being twenty years ago, it would be afraid that it would not take long to be suppressed immediately because of the emergence of this freak. It has greatly hindered the fundamental interests of the wealthy and the gentry. It established Taiping Academy, making the gentry and wealthy monopoly on knowledge increasingly unscrupulous. In addition, the Shence Mansion has created a group of new wealth, which has severely hit the economic foundation of the gentry. At that time, the Hongnong gentry wanted to use this to attack the Shence Mansion, but the Shence Mansion was the result of the Shence Mansion.

The Ce Mansion used many methods, and the pastoral economy of the gentry collapsed completely. The collapse of the Hongnong gentry, to some extent, had many factors. On the one hand, it was because Qin Shaoyou's method of spending money was indeed too powerful. On the other hand, it was because the imperial examinations held in the Sui and Tang Dynasties that made the Hongnong gentry no longer have the same power as before. In addition, Wu Zetian's suppression during the reign, so the economic suppression was suppressed by Qin Shaoyou, and politically, he was unable to move.

Since I can't hold back, I can only cooperate.

The cooperation between the Hongnong gentry and Qin Shaoyou is a model. The gentry passed the gentry hall in large numbers to safeguard their political interests. Even if some policies hurt the gentry, they can still have some capital to bargain with the gentry hall.

On the other hand, it is economic integration.

The pastoral economy was the foundation of the Hongnong gentry, but soon they discovered that their lifestyle was vulnerable to the commercial economy of Mengjin. After all, they had enough connections and enough political capital and financial resources. When they devoted themselves to the commercial boom in Mengjin, what would be the result?

They suddenly realized that farming really doesn’t make money, and it doesn’t make any sense to keep boxes of money in the cellar. It turns out that having money in your hands can produce several times of money. It turns out that connections are not just tools to maintain status, but also tools to make money.

The Hongnong clan not only did not decline, but also rose strongly by taking advantage of this east wind.

The Yang family alone was originally the largest family in Hongnong and had a stable status. Unfortunately, Wu Zetian did not allow the Yang family to be an official, which made them dormant for a long time. But now, Yang Jiong has become the speaker. That’s fine. The most important thing is that the children of the Yang family began to go to business. Now there are hundreds of shops, one caravan, and seven or eight workshops. They earn gold coins every day, and their wealth has almost doubled in just over a year.

The other gentry were like hungry tigers and sheep, each making their own business. In fact, they were not keen on running workshops, but were more keen on selling goods. They looked down on the profits earned by running workshops because they had more profitable transactions. In this era when the connection between regions was not close, it was very difficult for ordinary merchants to deliver a batch of goods hundreds of miles away, because the status of merchants was not high, and they would definitely encounter difficulties along the way. This was the case with the government and the local tyrants. Therefore, often a batch of goods worth a thousand trump cards may be more than several times the amount of money spent hundreds of miles away.

However, the gentry was different. The most important thing about the gentry was their connections. The government did not dare to make things difficult for their goods. They would try their best to facilitate the checkpoints along the way. When they arrived at the local area, the local tyrants became their help. For a thousand guan, ordinary merchants would spend 3,000 guan to handle the goods and transport and the losses along the way. However, for the gentry, they only needed hundreds of guan to be responsible for the manpower and animal power along the way.

This...is huge profit.

This huge profit has made the aristocrats taste the sweetness, so almost in Hongnong, every household's high-ranking house nowadays, although they occasionally set up a few workshops to play and arrange a few children to learn production and operation, their real pillar is agents and goods. The more Mengjin produces, the more developed the trade, the greater their profits they make. These people are more like a group of profiteers lying on the coffins of their ancestors, quite like the landlords and landlords of later generations, but their functions are irreplaceable to others.

Some of the Kanto gentry had long visited Mengjin for an undercover visit. They were stunned by the income of some Hongnong families. It turned out that when people took a trip to goods, they could save effort, and their income was higher than the income from hard work to plant tens of thousands of acres of land. This shock was no longer just a reason for being moved, but more of a naked envy.

So, these people flocked to each other and finally came.

However, Qin Shaoyou's temporary neglect of them made them feel a little uneasy. He was struggling to get to Yang Jiong every day, and some people even went to find the monster Wang Ju. Even a guy like Wang Ju has become a hot commodity for everyone. He always went to Wang Ju to find out the news in the name of some distant relatives or the reasons of the Wang family's old friends.

The Shence Mansion has become a force that can help the Guanlong clan. Although its power is still a little insufficient, it should not be underestimated. Now that even this last worries are gone, what are you waiting for?

Yang Jiong mentioned these people's thoughts to Qin Shaoyou, and he talked for half an hour.

In this regard, Yang Jiong knew very well that even the Pei family who had acquaintances with him, they were latecomers. Since they were latecomers, Yang Jiong still hoped to maintain some advantages in front of them. Of course, joining with the Kanto gentry would have great benefits for the entire Shence Mansion. After all, the power of these people is amazing, which has great benefits for the trade and political impact of the Shence Mansion. The stronger the Shence Mansion, the fewer the Yang family's concerns and the more stable the status will be. Therefore, Yang Jiong did not rush to pull the Guandong gentry into the waters, and maintained a certain degree of vigilance. However, at the same time, he said to Qin Shaoyou at the end of the summary: "Your Highness, now all the Kanto families are willing to make good friends with the Shence Mansion, and the situation is imminent. His highness and the Wei family competed with the temple before, and they also made a lot of efforts. If he ignores them at this time, it is probably a pity for people to feel disappointed."

Qin Shaoyou nodded and said, "It's good, it's time. But according to Mr. Yang's opinion, what should we do?"

Qin Shaoyou always called Yang Jiong as Gong Yang, which is different from calling Mr. Wang Juwei, and it is more respectful. On the one hand, Yang Jiong is old, and on the other hand, he also respects the identity of Yang Jiong as the speaker. The meeting hall is rationally independent of the Shence Mansion and has a very transcendent status. Qin Shaoyou does not want to be criticized for this matter.
