Chapter 594: Prevent the disorderly expansion of capital, illegal fundraising and conspiracy
"This is to buy you, and it is also intended to bribe the entire Datong Machinery Factory, and then take advantage of it, so that the factory's original intention of benefiting employees will become a tool for several wealthy and powerful people to make profits!"
Bang!
Bi Ziyan slapped the table with a palm and said, "It's not small! You can get an interest-free loan of 6 million yuan in silver coins for you!"
Gu Yanwu nodded and said, "These wealthy businessmen in Suzhou are already chaebols! They intend to use their wealth to control the world and prevent the court from their will to make the world rich."
"We can't let them succeed!"
Bi Ziyan replied directly.
"Make the poor richer, and the rich will not become poor. The wealth obtained from consumption will be distributed as much as possible to the hands of producers, rather than just the hands of operators, so as to avoid the richer and the poorer poorer. This is the original intention of our Datong Machinery Factory!"
Gu Yanwu also replied, "I just didn't expect that these Suzhou chaebols would have such a sensitive sense of smell and would come up with a way to prevent factories like us from appearing so quickly."
"But I have to say that people's methods are very clever. They are not forcibly preventing factories like you from appearing, but by buying you, they will change your color! This is the same as the establishment of a dynasty. Even in the early days of the founding of the country, how honest and honest the monarchs and court officials will eventually be corrupted by them."
Bi Ziyan said.
"We are not at ease. We are all building this factory for the concept in our hearts, not seeking great wealth! The students are only worried about the future."
Gu Yanwu said that and looked at Bi Ziyan.
"Report this matter and your concerns to Your Majesty, so that Your Majesty can know about this matter!"
Bi Ziyan ordered.
...
"Capital is really omnipresent, and I don't want to concentrate the world's wealth in the hands of a small number of people for a day!"
After receiving Gu Yanwu's report, Zhu Youxiao expressed such emotion.
"The world is bustling with people for profit, and the world is bustling with people for profit! Human nature is inherently evil, not good. Xunzi's words are actually the argument that those who practice good governance have been based on from ancient times to the present!
Therefore, I believe that the meaning of the existence of the court is to prevent the evil of human nature, the laws and regulations, the morals and civilizations established are all to suppress the evil of human nature, and to make the world of human beings different from the world of animals."
Wen Tiren said at this time and said:
"Your Majesty, I will give you a title of Xunzi, and I will rank this with Confucius and Mencius, so that future generations will know that they will not forget to suppress the evil of human nature at that time."
"No! Human nature is inherently good, and its evil is all caused by birth. Governing the country should be based on promoting goodness. I believe that the employees of Datong Machinery Factory will not choose to betray their own purpose of building a factory! As long as they educate hard, more and more people will understand this principle and then be strict with themselves, and know good and eliminate evil, so as to preserve their own conscience."
Liu Hongxun retorted.
"The two are not contradictory to promote good and eliminate evil!"
"Xunzi's status can be increased. How can I respect a saint alone in China? In this way, a saint will become a thief! Moreover, China has great ideas, more than a saint? And goodness should be promoted. Therefore, even if the Datong Machinery Factory changes color in the future, we must set up a new Datong Machinery Factory for experiments."
Zhu Youxiao made his own decision.
"yes!"
Liu Hongxun replied helplessly.
Although he was unwilling to recognize Xunzi's status, he knew that the court now needed to show its attitude of controlling the disorderly expansion of capital by acknowledging Xunzi's status, and he did not object anymore.
"We must also prevent the disorderly expansion of capital and crack down on huge amounts of funds raised by the people. We will issue an edict to the world. Anyone who raises more than one million yuan without my permission will be conspired to rebel. It does not mean that we must prepare a large number of troops and secretly build a large amount of weapons to be considered a rebellion. We can accumulate huge amounts of funds without authorization, intending to manipulate the government, and we can also conspire to rebel!"
Zhu Youxiao said, and instructed: "The East Factory must find out the source of funds from Hu Cunyi and others. If there is any illegal fundraising, arrest it first and then trial!"
"yes!"
...
Not long after.
According to Zhu Youxiao's instructions, the Ming Dynasty court formally issued an order to place Xunzi in the Confucian Temple, and asked to be with Mencius and be named as the most sage and sage together with Mencius. Confucius also changed from the most sage and sage to the most sage and sage.
Before, because of the Yansheng Gong Mansion, Zhu Youxiao abolished the Yansheng Gong's title, but did not take Confucius' position as the Supreme Sage.
Zhu Youxiao still recognized Confucius' contribution to Chinese thought and culture.
Therefore, he still retained Confucius' reputation.
However, Confucius is now placed by him as a position alongside Mencius and Xunzi.
In Zhu Youxiao's view, there is still a difference between sages and teachers. The sages mean to let future generations follow and follow, while the sages only let future generations know their knowledge, and should study their knowledge and think independently.
Therefore, Zhu Youxiao changed the Supreme Sage to the Supreme Sage.
When Zhu Youxiao issued the edict, the world was in an uproar.
"There are three things that are not understood: one, how can the Supreme Sage and the Master be on par with the two saints of Meng and Xun; two, how can Xunzi be qualified to be a Confucian Temple; three, Xunzi can be a Confucian Temple, what about Yan Zi, Zeng Zi, Zi Sizi, and Zhu Zi?"
The scholar Jin Zijun talked about this matter in front of the scholars because of this matter.
Another scholar, Gong Hongxu, said: "The intention of the court to do this is not to respect Xunzi, but to use Xunzi to tell the truth that the hearts of the world are inherently bad, so we must strengthen control."
All the scholars said that they were called.
Many civil servants who advocated that people's hearts were good were indeed quite dissatisfied with this, and felt that the court was deliberately strengthening the control of the people, so that people could not be free.
"I actually misunderstood people like Gu Ningren (Gu Yanwu), and these people are not moved by profit!"
After Hu Cunyi learned that the court issued an order to honor Xunzi and prohibited fundraising, he guessed that the court must have known through Gu Yanwu and others that his intention to use capital to change the color of the Datong Machinery Factory, so he issued such a decree. Therefore, he said this in anger.
"We still dare not make money at will in the future!"
"I, Scholars, have always been uneven. The fundamental reason is that some people read books wrongly. The sage's righteousness has not been unified. Some people only care about the justice of the world, but do not care about the power of a person."
"What is the main power, life and wealth, and freedom! The freedom to do business, the freedom to seek profit, the freedom to choose the master, the freedom to use money, and the freedom to live! We rich businessmen and big businessmen have worked hard for generations, of course, we should use whatever we want, and why should the court take care of it! It's really outrageous!"
Although Hu Cunyi was a wealthy businessman, he was also a Confucian scholar. Therefore, he talked a lot at this time, then slapped the table heavily and said to his son Hu Chun:
"You go out and see which Han vassal states govern the country with this freedom. These days, I will divide the property at home for my father and prepare to leave Middle-earth and leave this place where people cannot be free."
"yes!"
Shortly after Hu Chun said that, Xiwen hurriedly ran in: "Master, the people from the East Factory are here! He said he was taking you to the Anti-Corruption Department for questioning."
Chapter completed!
