Chapter 208 Nonsense
When Lu Ning saw everyone open their mouths and their faces were full of fear, was it what Lu Ning said wrong? Didn’t Americans in later generations make money by war? Every war will make a fortune, and the economic downturn will also be caused by war to solve the problem. Every war has made its technological level a leap forward. Is there still falsehood? Then Britain also relies on continuous conquests and continuous expansion to become stronger and stronger? Of course, these things cannot be explained clearly to the people under his command.
At this time, the words of Mr. Cai Yong came to Lu Ning's ears and said, "Ziyi, you must not say anything like this anymore. This is completely a crooked and nonsense. What you are talking about is completely contrary to traditions, customs, Confucianism, and the dynasty. Especially, you cannot tell the Emperor Wu, that is a wise monarch and a great man. How can you, a young man, say something random?"
Lu Ning smiled bitterly and shook his head and said, "Old Master, we didn't say anything. Emperor Wu is a wise king and a great man of a generation. That's right. But whether it's a wise king or a great man, they are all humans rather than gods. There are no perfect people in the world. As long as it is a human rather than a god, he will make mistakes, have mistakes, and have mistakes, but he just says that his mistakes are far less than his merits. You cannot let future generations discuss his merits and demerits just because he is a great man and a wise king.
Right and wrong, merit and demerit are spoken by history, and are evaluated by future generations. Including Mr. Cai, Master, you are the same. You are great scholars of the world. Who dares to say about your works, theoretical research, monographs in front of you? Only future generations can make very objective, correct and reasonable evaluations of you. Can you say that everything you great scholars of the world are correct? You are all perfect? Do you have no shortcomings? Your works are classics? No way?"
The scholars under Lu Ning were shocked by Lu Ning's words. Mr. Cai was also flushed by Lu Ning's penalties. Guan Ning kept nodding. Guan Ning thought for a while and said, "Ziyi, I, a famous master, listened to your strange ideas, although it was contrary to common sense, but there was still some truth. Although I did not fully understand some of your views for a while, I still felt that there was a certain reason to find. Every time you talked, you would surprise me. Some of your views are also helpful and referenced for Confucianism research, and they are also very philosophical. If you say that you don't know a big word every day, how could you know so many things? You can also say such profound opinions and theories? Even the great Confucian scholars of the world are not as good as you. Although you are not very clear about the collection of classics and history, you still know the generality from your words. Why is this?"
Good, why do you always like to ask why? Can Lu Ning explain these 100,000 whys? Do Lu Ning dare to say it? What a shitty collection of scriptures and history, Lu Ning knows it, it is just a movie from later generations. You can watch more TV. After all, Lu Ning has accumulated more than two thousand years of knowledge! Of course, Lu Ning knows it, you don’t know.
When Lu Ning saw that they were all waiting for explanation, Lu Ning was dizzy. Lu Ning sighed and said, "Master, how could I understand these things? They were just nonsense. Sometimes in my dream, the fairy Chang'e would give me some guidance. I don't know if it was right or wrong. Anyway, it was said according to her original words." After saying that, Lu Ning smiled foolishly, and I didn't know anything.
When Guan Ning saw that Lu Ning was playing tricks again, there was only a wry smile on his face. The people next to him almost laughed out loud, but they didn't dare to be arrogant in front of Guan Ning and Mr. Cai. Gu Yong looked at Lu Ning and said, "Lord, can you explain to us what war economics that Fairy Chang'e told you?"
Lu Ning smiled and said, "Yuan Tan, I am not very clear about this issue. Although Fairy Chang'e said a lot, I can't remember much, so I can only briefly talk about the little bit I remember. Everyone knows that war consumes a lot of food and money, a lot of human resources, and a lot of soldiers. But while war consumes so many things, it also creates wealth for us! For example, our army's conquest against the Xianbei Tartars, on the one hand, our army consumes a lot of materials, but also allows our army to seize a lot of things, which benefits the generals, soldiers and the prefectures; our army also occupied a large area of land resources, which also allows us to have more territory to resettle victims and refugees, and the places occupied by our army have many mineral resources, which are shared by all the people in our jurisdiction; on the other hand, due to the war, it consumes a lot of materials, which also makes our various wars
The production factory of the required materials has worked overtime to improve efficiency, increase efficiency, and increase taxes for us. The war also consumed all the materials that were about to be unsold, allowing various materials to be stable at a certain price instead of selling at a lower price, ensuring the interests of factories and merchants. Moreover, due to the ongoing war, we have constantly come up with various ways to improve the performance of weapons and equipment in the hands of soldiers, which has also promoted the improvement of the production technology level and performance of various weapons and equipment. The improvement of these technologies will also promote the improvement of the production technology level of civil and military products. Do you civil and military officials not feel these? Everyone knows what the level of our army's weapons and equipment is! Everyone knows what our tax level is! Why can we achieve such great results in a short period of time? Haven't you ever thought about it seriously? Haven't you analyzed it? This is unlikely."
After hearing this, Sima Lang shook his head and said helplessly: "Brother, you are like that, but I still can't understand and cannot understand it. Consumption means consumption, and the more you consume, the better? Isn't this nonsense? But there have been earth-shaking changes in your leadership's jurisdiction, which are incomparable to other foreign counties and prefectures. This is true. As for the fallacies you said, I don't agree with it."
He is really a fish-wood head. Lu Ning smiled bitterly and said, "Fifth brother, then do you think we have made a profit or a loss every year when we resettle a large number of disaster victims and refugees?"
Sima Lang said without thinking: "Of course it's a loss. It's just that we are placing refugees. Refugees are our responsibility."
Zhang Yang also said: "My lord, we have placed a large number of disaster victims, and refugees are really a loss. No other county or state are resettled, so we only come to place as much as we can. Of course, it is a loss. The prefects and governors of other prefectures and counties laugh at the lord for being stupid. Even when I was a prefect, I could only put a few big pots lightly. I have never done such a place as my lord."
