Hearing this, Ran Min smiled and said, "This question is too profound. If I don’t tell you now, you will know."
"Oh …"
"Son, do you know what always emphasizes agriculture and inhibits commerce in all dynasties?"
"ah! I know this! " Ran said, "Because agriculture is the foundation of our country! If the so-called country is supported by agriculture, where will it come from? Where do you come from? If all the Chinese people have gone to do business, who will come to agriculture? All previous dynasties have implemented the policy of emphasizing agriculture and restraining business! "
"That’s right"
The economic foundation of Chinese feudal era is self-sufficient natural economy. For people, owning land can extract huge wealth and the stable land rent income is the best means to get rich. At the same time, for feudal countries, agricultural development can make people live and work in peace and contentment, and make the national treasury granary full, which can not only lead to food shortage, unrest, but also be intrusive.
Therefore, the rulers of past dynasties regarded the development of agriculture as "founding the country" and regarded commerce as "the last industry" to restrain it.
Emphasizing agriculture and restraining commerce is the most basic economic guiding ideology of feudal dynasties in China, which advocates attaching importance to agriculture and restricting industrial and commercial development
From Shang Yang’s political reform to the measures of Emperor Wen’s attaching importance to agriculture until the early Qing Dynasty resumed economic adjustment, the policy of attaching importance to agriculture and restraining business was embodied, and the end of feudal system was not an accident, but an inevitable product of feudal natural economy.
"Historical Records of the Qin Dynasty" "The emperor’s hard work and diligence in agriculture, except for the end of the Qian Dynasty, is rich in the whole world."
During the Shang and Zhou Dynasties, the state adopted encouraging policies to support commercial development. Later, there were increasingly serious problems in society, such as commercial agriculture competing for labor and affecting agricultural production, and so on, and the idea of emphasizing agriculture and restraining business appeared.
But in the Warring States period, all countries emphasized farming and strengthening the central government, so the thought of emphasizing agriculture and restraining business appeared. Shang Yang advocated "emphasizing agriculture and restraining business" when Qin realized political reform.
In the early years of the Western Han Dynasty, after a long period of war, the people’s livelihood was depressed, but businessmen hoarded for profit.
Emperor Gaozu’s policy of "forbidding Jia people to travel by car and paying taxes again" and forbidding businessmen to buy land effectively avoided the obstacles to economic recovery caused by businessmen’s illegal profits.
In the generation of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, measures such as official casting of currency, monopoly of salt, iron and wine, official trafficking, price management, and heavier taxation on industrialists and businessmen were implemented, which restrained the influence of wealthy businessman dajia to some extent.
Ran Min nodded slightly and said, "China has been a big farming country since ancient times. A Ying, the Lord of the people, wants you to remember a sentence: A boat can also overturn a boat!"
"Water boat can also overturn the boat …" Ran Min said this sentence, and Jean Valjean was a little confused, but he knew that his father wouldn’t give him an answer, because all this had to be solved by himself!

Ding-dong! ……”
In a lush mountain forest in Mangdang Mountain on the outskirts of Yecheng, the valley is heavily guarded. It can be said that there are five steps, one post, ten steps and one whistle, and Wei Junrui is everywhere.
These Wei Jun Rui Shi wore iron helmets with iron curtains on their faces, revealing a pair of eyes, mouth and nose, and the rest of them were covered by the Ministry. They were definitely armed to the teeth!
The standard hunting is coming, and the sound of iron training is endless.
This is the weapons workshop of the Great Wei State. Most of the weapons of the entire Wei State military forces come from here!
At this moment, it is particularly lively because of Ran Min’s visit to this weapons workshop.
Ran Min was surrounded by a large group of people and visited the weapons and equipment just built in the weapons workshop.
China has been shadowing ten kinds of martial arts since ancient times "actually refers to ten kinds of weapons.
Generally, it refers to bows, crossbows, guns, sticks, knives, swords, spears, shields, axes, cymbals, halberds, oars, whips, maces, hammers, forks, palladium, and Goer. There are far more than ten kinds of weapons in China’s martial arts. If you add all kinds of exotic weapons and all kinds of hidden weapons, the total number will probably be hundreds.
Short weapon The so-called short weapon refers to the fact that its length is generally not more than that of the regular brow, so that it is often held with one hand. The most common short weapons are knives and swords.
Long weapons are the most common long weapons in Wulin, including guns, clubs and broadswords. hidden weapons has rope dart, meteor hammer, spike hammer, dragon beard hook, flying claw, soft whip, brocade lasso and iron lotus.
Since the Han Dynasty, most ancient weapons have been forged by pouring steel and tempering steel. The main method is that the texture is mainly medium carbon steel and high carbon steel.
However, the military standard weapons are actually not that complicated, that is, guns, spears, halberds, knives and shields are generally required to be absolutely qualified in quality.
Ran Min took a ring-headed iron knife and waved it a few times, then nodded slightly and said, "Yes, yes, this iron knife is very sharp and chopping rapidly. Can it be manufactured in large quantities?"
The person in charge of weapons workshop production replied, "King Huan’s first iron knife can be manufactured in batches, but the iron may be insufficient. We need more iron."
"This is not a problem" Ran Min said with the wave.
In the Western Han Dynasty, the recruits were developed with a straight body and a single-edged sword with a flat head, which is generally called "ring-headed iron knife". There was no obvious sword handle, and the wood chips were bundled and tied again. The thick rope quickly replaced the sword because it was good at chopping, and also made great progress in smelting because the demand increased greatly when Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty set up iron officials in various parts of the country to take charge of iron production.
In the Eastern Han Dynasty, the hundred-chain steel and local quenching technology made it stronger and sharper. As the Han Dynasty spread its fame to the four directions in the east and the west, this form also extended to the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties.
At that time, the acceptance and imitation of the ring-head iron cutter head in Japan had a very far-reaching impact on the development of Japanese knives in the future, and there are still many physical objects to prove it
During the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, the double-ear attachment method appeared, which changed the way of matching knives, and this way has been up to now; In addition, at this time, a new type of knife has been developed, and the blade body is slightly curved, and the blade tip is sharp in front and inclined in back, which is more suitable for chopping its shape, and the blade shape of later generations is very close.
"Why is there a word on this side?" Ran Min some curiously looked at the iron knife face words.
The person in charge replied, "Your Majesty, the production of weapons in our weapons workshop is very strict, and every process must be controlled so as to produce excellent weapons! The name of the craftsman will be engraved on the weapon surface produced in each workshop. If there is something wrong with the weapon, the craftsman is duty-bound! "
"So good!"
Ran Min praised this very much.
Back to Jianzhang Palace, before Ran Min could catch his breath, he heard that Liu Ba came running to report that he was an envoy from Japan.
"Japan?" Ran Min first paused and then seemed to think of something.
"Japan? Isn’t that our eastern island country? "
"yes"
"No" Ran Min didn’t good the spirit tunnel.
Liu Ba bowed his head and just stepped away. I heard Ran Min say "wait" again.
"Let the Japanese envoy wait at the Evergreen Hall."
"promise"
