[This old emperor is worrying about the system of nobles and inferiors. If it’s gone, then everything will be gone. Hahaha. ]
The old emperor had a different expression from the other court officials.
Although what Shen Zhiyi said seemed a bit exaggerated, it was not impossible to do so.
"I think, what if this system of noble and inferior status only exists in a small area?"
Civil and military officials in the court said: Then there will be nothing to worry about.
For many things, the most frightening thing is exceeding the limit, thus causing a series of bigger troubles.
But things on a small scale won’t cause any waves after all.
But this system of noble and inferior status that has existed for thousands of years is not so easy to solve.
So after the old emperor said this, he didn't say anything else.
He waved goodbye, and the rest of the people left in an orderly manner.
As for the Secretary of the Central Secretariat, he was also dragged out and caned according to the laws of Daye.
Because the slaves were not killed, this guy was only beaten with dozens of sticks instead of being imprisoned for a year.
Shen Zhiyi was in high spirits and directly switched the surveillance to the place where Zhongshu Sheren was.
As it bounced open, the screams rushed directly into her ears.
[Oh, you are shouting so vigorously. ]
[Wait, the man hitting with the stick didn't use all his strength, and the secretary secretly put a soft cushion on his butt to protect himself.]
Shen Zhiyi was furious.
The old emperor gave a look to Chen Decai standing beside him.
Our roundworms make another shining appearance.
When Shen Zhiyi looked up again.
[A new person beat him up, and he even took away the cushion on the buttocks of the Secretary of the Central Secretariat. That's right, that's right, this scream is just right.]
"Yanchen, you seemed to have something to say just now."
The newly appointed Minister of Personnel said: "Your Majesty, I think this system of noble and humble status should not be completely abolished."
“It’s natural.”
If it is abolished completely, it will offend a number of forces.
"But among the people, such a relationship has emerged. Take the textile machines that the emperor is planning to promote recently as an example. A wealthy businessman can buy a batch of textile machines, and then pay some money to find some people to work, so that he can start producing quilts, cotton clothes, etc. that the people need."
"Ahem."
The old emperor thought it was Shen Zhiyi who coughed in their minds, but he didn't expect that this time Shen Zhiyi couldn't help but make a sound.
"Why? What's your opinion, Mr. Shen?"
Shen Zhiyi saw the gaze from the new Minister of Personnel and shook his head frantically.
[What do I have? You said that the machine owners provide the capital and the machine workers provide the labor. I never expected that the seeds of zibenism have already begun to appear in this world!]
[Yes, the business development in the previous dynasty was quite prosperous. ]
What, what is this doctrine?
The old emperor looked confused.
[What the new Minister of Personnel wants to say is that the employment relationship should replace most of the slave system, so that the "slaves" can get paid when they work, and can use the wages to engage in market consumption activities, thereby driving the economic development of the entire society. ]
[This guy, even though he has come to the Ministry of Personnel, his mind is full of money-making matters. ]
The new Minister of Personnel looked at the old emperor and nodded slightly.
That's exactly what he meant.
The old emperor pondered for a moment, his hands in his sleeves.
"It's a good idea, but it's not appropriate. Let's leave it like this for now. As for the slaves, we can improve the laws and pay more attention to their needs in the future."
The newly appointed Minister of Personnel had already guessed this result, but he still couldn't help but feel a little regretful in his heart.
It seems that there are many ways to make money that are not suitable to be talked about in the future.
Although the old emperor was only interested in making money and caring about the people, in the end it was all about the imperial power in his hands.
To serve the people is nothing more than to clearly understand the truth that "the king is the boat and the people are the water; water can carry the boat, but can also capsize it."
Because he himself was once "water" and now he has become a "boat".
What the old emperor has always wanted is stability for his people.
After understanding this, the newly appointed Minister of Personnel began to focus on handling the affairs of the Ministry of Personnel.
[Well, the slaves nowadays have a miserable life. The old emperor only needs to give them some sweet treats according to the law, so that they will not have too strong a rebellious mentality.]
"It's getting late, you guys should go back too."
[The old emperor looked listless.]
Shen Zhiyi picked up the pen.
[On the 30th of Xin Hai, the newly appointed Minister of Personnel left in disappointment after his advice was rejected. The emperor stared at his back for a long time, unable to recover.]
Zhang Sheren: Chen Lang, ah, Chen Lang, you are suitable for writing unofficial history! Oh no, you are suitable for writing miscellaneous books!
The old emperor let out a breath that had been stuck in his throat when he heard Shen Zhiyi's nonsense daily notes.
"Get out, get out, all of you."
[The emperor was very upset when he saw the other people in the hall, so he said, "Get lost."]
Zhang Sheren gave Shen Zhiyi a thumbs up in admiration. Even after being kicked out, he was still writing the daily notes. He was truly dedicated in an alternative way.
Shen Zhiyi closed the booklet with a refreshed mind and looked at Zhang Sheren who was standing beside him.
"Will Shen have a rest tomorrow?"
"That's natural. Chen Lang, take more rest. After all, you can't go back home during the New Year."
[Very good, I can’t laugh anymore, nnd Zhang Sheren, just wait for me! ]
Shen Zhiyi returned home depressed, took a freezing bath and lay down on the bed.
The thought of being able to sleep in tomorrow made her unable to fall asleep in bed, so she simply laid a carpet on the floor.
Do yoga.
After working for a few seconds, he felt tired and happily put the blanket away.
