Li Hu's promise did not make these wealthy businessmen feel excited.

These wealthy businessmen are also well-read people. Many of them come from families of officials and their understanding of national affairs is even better than the bureaucrats in the court. They know that it is not realistic to rely solely on Li Hu's strength to compete with the entire "scholar" class.

Li Hu obviously knew it, so he was very cautious in formulating and implementing specific policies for the reform. After he formulated a general direction for the reform, although his pace was firm, it was very small, especially this first step, which was very small. This was also an important reason why the second stage of Lishan’s political discussion broke out in fierce conflicts with landlords and merchants just as the second stage of Lishan’s political discussion began.

Both groups swear to declare that they represent the interests of the lower-level people.

As the party with ruling power, it is natural that the scholars and bureaucratic groups are very clear about the nature of landlords and merchants seeking profits. Therefore, when Li Gang compromised, he immediately came up with a minimum salary system. Whether the lower-level people are engaged in industry and commerce or other industries, first of all, they have no land. Once they lose their source of living, they cannot survive. In the end, they have no choice but to rebel, which puts the court under tremendous pressure.

The minimum wage system can ensure that other practitioners except farmers can live on their own labor, which can not only prevent landlords and merchants from over-exploding the lower class people, but also ensure social stability.

As the weaker party, the landlord merchant group had an instinctive fear of the court. The court controlled the scholars, and they were not all noble people with noble etiquette and righteousness. Especially in this dynasty, scholars put their interests first, but were still not satisfied after seizing a large number of privileges. They even put their power for personal gain in a "supreme" position, and corruption was rampant. In particular, the reformists used reforms to enrich the country and strengthen the people as an excuse, and used national policies to collect intensive taxes, seize and plunder. The landlord merchant group cleverly used various means to pass on such losses to the lower-level people as much as possible, which led to poor people at the lower-level people. Nowadays, landlord merchants have the opportunity to participate in politics and make decisions. Of course, they should use the excuse to protect the interests of the lower-level people as an excuse to ensure that national policies are beneficial to themselves, and then indirectly protect the interests of the lower-level people.

Both groups used the interests of the lower-level people as weapons of the game, which made Li Hu at a loss and could not find a way to compromise or compromise in his eagerness.

Among these five giant businesses, Chengdu

The Changsun Kangning is very prominent.

Changsun Kangning is over 50 years old, with a thin figure, long beard, steady and smart. This man is very knowledgeable and has a deep study of finance. The strategy of taking the Jiaozi system as the core of financial system reform was first proposed by him. When Fan Zhichang was in Chengdu, he was very close to him and was deeply influenced by his financial views. After a long period of thinking and research, he immediately came up with a relatively complete reform strategy with financial system reform as the core.

After Fan Zhichang returned to Chang'an, he introduced him to Li Hu. Li Hu had several deep conversations with him and admired his talents.

Changsun Kangning was already very famous. During the period when Lishan was discussing politics, he gradually became the leader of the landlords and merchants with his own strength.

After Changsun Kangning met Fan Zhichang, he made a careful plan and made a careful plan. The key point was to apply his own theories and experiences in finance to this change. This was first to protect his own interests, and secondly, he also had a little idea of ​​saving the world and peace. Talented people inevitably have some desires to govern the country, manage their families and pacify the world.

During the political discussion in Mount Li, he suddenly realized that his wish could be realized, so his ambitions gradually began to expand.

At this banquet, Fan Zhichang and Changsun Kangning were talking for most of the time, while the other giant merchants only followed Changsun Kangning and did not express their opinions easily.

"When will the Grand Marshal plan to launch the Western Expedition?" After Li Hu made a series of promises, Changsun Kangning immediately turned the topic to the Western Expedition.

Li Hu suddenly became a little unhappy.

Changsun Kangning obviously did not believe his promise and directly threatened the Western Expedition. Li Hu was eager to launch the Western Expedition, and the Western Expedition required a lot of money and materials. Under the current circumstances, the national treasury could not meet it and could only borrow money from landlords and merchants from all over the country. This was also the real purpose of Li Hu to invite them to Chang'an in the name of discussing state affairs.

Everyone had a clear idea about this, but no one expected that Li Hu would sincerely ask them to discuss national policies. The first stage of Lishan's political discussion established the basic national policies and development strategies. This result was remarkable, beyond everyone's expectations, but entered the second stage and entered the formulation of substantive reform policies.

Later, the concealed conflict broke out immediately and was very intense. The reason was that Li Hu's sincerity gave landlords and merchants unprecedented hope.

The bureaucratic group's fierce reaction was as expected, and Changsun Kangning and a group of big landlords and merchants had a long time to deal with the countermeasures. The focus of this countermeasure was to fight the Western Expedition, which was a killer move that forced Li Hu and the court to make concessions.

Li Hu held back the anger in his heart, smiled, and made the words clear, "The decision of the time of the Western Expedition is not in my hands." Li Hu stopped, carefully observed the changes in expressions on everyone's faces, and then turned his eyes to Changsun Kangning, "When do you think I can launch the Western Expedition?"

Changsun Kangning knew that Li Hu was unhappy, but he was confident and calmly responded: "Master, even if you launch the Western Expedition tomorrow, we will spare no effort and help each other."

Li Hu sneered secretly, but the smile on his face became even brighter, and a sentence hit the nail on the head, "I said in Mount Li that there is no history to learn from our reforms, and we have no experience. We must constantly explore and summarize while ensuring the stability of Middle-earth, and strive to complete the change from one to three generations. The series of measures you have taken in Mount Li are too

Too radical, the pace of change is too fast, and it is easy to fail and cause turmoil. Under the current situation, we must seek stability. Any measures that may lead to failure cannot be implemented. However, I can promise that we will just wait for us to destroy Xixia and pacify the Southeast. Our pace of change can be faster, and I will spare no effort to support your reform measures."

This sentence is equivalent to completely cutting off the fantasies of Changsun Kangning and others.

Li Hu was not afraid of their threats at all. If both sides understand each other and cooperate comprehensively, the overall strategy of change would remain unchanged. Otherwise, Li Hu would not rule out the use of force to plunder.

Fan Zhichang, Yan Qing, Zhao Yanguang and others showed a hint of disappointment, but Changsun Kangning was calm and asked slowly: "Master, from the Han Dynasty to the Tang Dynasty, both civil and military affairs were emphasized at the peak. However, after years of peace, the status of civil officials became increasingly prominent. The general family gradually declined due to lack of merits, and had to let their descendants study scriptures to ensure their career. May I ask Da Zheng, after three generations, can the court be guaranteed to be worthy of both civil and military affairs? May I ask Da Zheng, today's reform, can the scholars of the Song Dynasty be changed from the first interest to the first priority of etiquette and morality? If the scholars of the Song Dynasty still advocate interests, can they still ensure that the reform strategy of the Song Dynasty lasts forever? If the scholars of the Song Dynasty still advocate interests, can they still ensure that the reform strategy of the Song Dynasty lasts forever? If the scholars of the Song Dynasty want to ensure their own interests,

Being defended Middle Earth and being self-consistent, can you guarantee that the strategy of using civilized martial arts will not reappear Middle Earth?"

Li Hu's expression changed immediately, and the smile on his face slowly faded away, falling into deep thought.

Changsun Kangning's words hit Li Hu's point. What is the purpose of Li Hu launching reforms and reforming national policies? It is to ensure the interests of the tiger and fierce warriors and ensure that the tiger and fierce warriors can enjoy wealth and glory for generations. If the national policy of equal importance to civil and military affairs is overturned, then his greatest wish and the ultimate goal of launching reform will fail.

"Master, for all generations, warriors have conquered the world and scholars have ruled the country. Once the scholars have controlled their power, they all try to attack the warriors. Especially in this dynasty, they have become more and more aggressive, trampling the warriors under their feet and swearing them at will." Changsun Kangning's voice continued to increase, deeply stimulating Li Hu, "If the warriors of the Song Dynasty could share power, would the Song Dynasty suddenly collapse? The reason why the Song Dynasty was defeated today was because the Song Dynasty raised a group of shameless scholars who held the Tianxian. If they were not for them, would the Song Dynasty suddenly fall apart in its prosperous period?"

"The first priority of the reform of the Grand Marshal is to abandon the national policy of using civil and military power. However, if the Grand Marshal wants to continue the strategy of equal importance to civil and military power, the first priority is to try to curb scholars.

To monopolize power.”

"For generations, harems, relatives, eunuchs, and military men have been the cause of subversion of the dynasty. Therefore, after the founding of this dynasty, it was strictly forbidden for the harems, relatives, eunuchs, and military men to be involved in politics. However, this dynasty was defeated more than 160 years after the founding of the country. So I would like to ask the general, who was defeated this time because of the dynasty?"

The room was very quiet. Li Hu's face was cold and he didn't say a word.

Changsun Kangning smiled slightly, "Scholars control power, and scholars compiled the history of usurping the country. May I ask the Grand Marshal, how did this period of national history be compiled? Who destroyed the Song Dynasty? Will those scholars tell their descendants in national history that the scholars ruined the Song Dynasty? From this, do priests have no responsibility for the defeat of all dynasties?"

"The Song Dynasty was defeated because of the greed, corruption and betrayal of the scholars, and was defeated because of the extremely shamelessness of the scholars. At this time of change, the Grand Marshal allowed such a group of scholars to take power and preside over the change. How great is the success of the change? How great is the possibility of the Marshal's reform strategy continuing for a long time?"

Li Hu suddenly felt suffocated and could not find any refutation.

"The Grand Marshal said that the Middle Earth today is different from the past. The biggest contradiction in Middle Earth today is the contradiction between land and population. Therefore, the strategy of governing the country must be changed. It is necessary to subvert the tradition of governing the country in history and take a new path. But do these scholars and men have a clear understanding of Middle Earth today as clearly as the Grand Marshal? Do they understand the Grand Marshal's concept of governing the country? They have destroyed a dynasty that is booming. Can the Grand Marshal still expect them to create a brand new dynasty?"

"Since the founding of the Song Dynasty, it has been aware of the contradiction between land and population, and has been encouraging the development of industry and commerce. More than 160 years later, the industry and commerce of the Song Dynasty had developed to a certain level, and a huge group had formed. This group contributed half of the taxes to the Song Dynasty, but why did they not receive the respect they deserve? Why couldn't they enjoy the power they deserve? Why did their status not be as good as farmers who cultivated land? Why are industry and commerce a lowly business, and people engaged in industry and commerce all untouchables? Who disregarded the facts and wanted to crack down on and suppress the craftsmen and merchants who contributed half of the taxes to the Song Dynasty?"

"Master..." Changsun Kangning shouted excitedly, "Master's governance philosophy and Master's reform strategy, we understand us the most, and we support us the most, and the people who oppose you and even conspire to kill you behind your back are scholars. In this case, Master still wants to blind his eyes and stay away from the alliance

Are you friendly and close to the enemy, and fight friends and trust villains? Will the Grand Marshal want to see his efforts turn into smoke and dust, and see his dead brothers eventually bear the reputation of the traitor and be infamous for thousands of years?"

Li Hu's heart was trembling, and murderous aura in his eyes gushed out, and a violent gust boiled in his blood.

Changsun Kangning knew that his words had taken effect, immediately stood up and said sternly: "The scholars defeated the Song Dynasty, split Middle Earth, and let the people of Middle Earth suffer. Shouldn't they be punished? Shouldn't they be held responsible? The general can favor them, but God will not let them go. The gods in the sky will definitely punish them. Thousands of innocent souls will definitely revenge them. As long as Middle Earth is under their rule, the disaster will never stop."
