After visiting Zilu Temple, the king and his ministers sat leisurely in the yard outside.

The ancient cypresses blocked the scorching sun, and sat under the shade of the trees to make people feel refreshed.

Zhao Zhen changed into casual clothes, sat on a large stone bench, and sat comfortably on it to enjoy the cool air. Several important ministers walked or sat on all sides to enjoy a rare leisure time. The tradition formed since the time of Taizu, when the monarch and ministers were together in private, everyone was more casual. Without the censor watching, there was no restraint of etiquette and they were all at will.

Zhao Zhen was a serious person, especially when wearing court clothes and handling official business, he obeyed courtesy everywhere. On the contrary, his father, Emperor Zhenzong, was more casual, and he had a banquet with his ministers, and he would have everything he had when he drank too much. Now, he went to the capital and went on a journey for a few days, and Zhao Zhen also put down his airs.

The emperor did not act like an emperor, so the ministers would pay attention to their words and deeds from time to time, and everyone became casual. The emperor said something wrong in front of him, and he would kill the whole family at any time. There was no such rule in the Song Dynasty, and most of the previous dynasties were like this. Those who distinguish loyalty and treacherous by their words and deeds, and those who would kill people casually were mostly habits formed by the Ming and Qing dynasties. The accusation of the chariot was a serious crime, but the only one who was really put on the table was Yue Fei’s unjust case in history, and the civil and military officials in the dynasty did not think that this crime could be held.

After completely resting, Zhao Zhen was intrigued and asked Xu Ping to sit beside him and said to him: "This Northern Tour, if the Khitan really thought we were going to restore Yanyun, and wanted to take action first, what should we do if we fight?"

Xu Ping smiled: "When soldiers come, generals will block them, and when water comes, soil will cover them, then fight. Zhending Prefecture, Baozhou, and Xiongzhou areas have already strengthened the walls and cleared the fields, and have heavy troops set up defenses. The Khitan troops cannot pass through those states. More than 100,000 troops can block Zhaozhou and Shenzhou in the north, gather and annihilate them. If the Khitan elites are destroyed, Your Majesty can personally raise the army and go straight to Youzhou, and build unparalleled martial arts."

Zhao Zhen curled his lips and shook his head: "Where is the battle so easy? Why did this dynasty fail several times?"

Xu Ping said: "The offensive and defensive momentum is different. When the alliance of Chanzhou was established, the morale of the army was unstable and the combat power was not good, so he had to reconcile the enemy when he had the upper hand. Nowadays, hundreds of thousands of imperial guards are seeking war, and everyone is good at fighting, and the troops are good and food are sufficient. If you can let the Khitan army stop under the strong city, you can work together to encircle and annihilate it. Why do you need to seek peace? That opportunity is the time when Your Majesty makes achievements."

Zhao Zhen looked up at the big tree above his head like a green screen, and thought for a while, and couldn't help but yearn for a while. If Yelu Zong really couldn't help but learn from his ancestors and sent 100,000 cavalry south, could he really get annihilated on Hebei Road? Such military achievements sound scary and make people dare not think about it, but Xu Ping came to the northwest for three years, and it seemed that nothing was wrong.

Xu Ping just laughed. Now the situation has come true. If the Khitan dares to act like Dangxiang, Yelu Zongzhen may really become the second in Yuanhao. The Khitan soldiers mainly rely on the nomadic tribes, the Han people in Yanyun land. The Song Dynasty has not completely given up. The Khitans have not really regarded them as people under their rule. They cannot rely on them. Hundreds of thousands of people, it is difficult to replenish them once they are gone. If they can annihilate the main force of the Khitan within the territory, the Song Dynasty army can crush north.

After thinking about it for a while, Zhao Zhen shook his head: "With Dangxiang's example, the Khitan king will not do this."

Of course, I would not do this. The Khitan is very cautious now and is guarding against the attack of the Song Dynasty everywhere. How dare I go south when I feel angry?

People's hearts are invisible and intangible, but they will always affect the national affairs. Dangxiang's defeat and Fengzhou's failure are slowly losing the psychological advantages of the Central Plains dynasty established by the Khitan over the past century. Now their confidence is still there, so they respond fiercely to the actions of the Song Dynasty. When the national strength is exhausted and their spirits are lost, they will lose their fighting spirit like a beast and be slaughtered by others.

Du Yan came over and took a memorial and said, "On the West Road of Jing, the three officials and Gongxian Huitongshe agreed that each large truck of Huitongshe system would be given to Sansi 50 jin of money for each of them. After three years, it would be reduced to twenty jin, and after ten years, it would be allowed to do its own."

Xu Ping nodded. The original meaning of Sansi was that Sun Erlang would give them how much money to sell a car without distinguishing the time limit. Xu Ping insisted that they set a deadline, even if they collected a little more money in the past few years. The patent still has a time limit, how can they eat others for a lifetime? Ten years was long enough, and it was hard to say which step the vehicle developed at that time.

After reading the memorial, Zhao Zhen said to Xu Ping: "The profits of the three departments shall be returned to the court. Why did the prime minister forcefully to give benefits to the people and make the people seize the benefits of the court? People should not compete with the people for profit. The prime minister repeatedly refuted it, and it seems that this should not be done."

Xu Ping said: "This time it is not that the officials give in to the people. How can they dare to benefit the people on behalf of the people? The court gives concessions to the people, reduce taxes, exemption of labor, but transferring industries is not. Why? Industry is separated from the government and enters the people in detail, but only a few families. How can the people in the world benefit? The people are the people in the world, not a few families or a few families, and the benefits of the people should be divided in this way. Therefore, the government gives concessions to the people, not necessarily the people who benefit. If the people are not dealt with well, the people in the world are exploited more severely."

Whether it is the government that does not compete with the people for profit, or the country retreats and the people advances, the interests are all promoted by a few people, but in fact, the whole people cannot benefit. The result is that the regime loses its source of wealth and enriches a small number of people, and most of them may not be beneficial. Will private enterprises treat employees more well than official enterprises? Or will they generously use their wealth to benefit society? Obviously it is impossible.

The purpose of releasing part of the official industry to the public is not here. The official makes concessions to the people. The people who benefit are not the people under the meaning of the regime. A small number of people make a fortune with the help of the official industries, and cannot really make the people profit. Moreover, private people do not need to assume social obligations like the regime. Without strong institutional constraints, exploitation is almost an inevitable result.

Du Yan said: "Since that's the case, why did the Prime Minister ask the three officials to let this part of the industry on Huitong News Agency?"

"Xunzi said: "The king is a boat; the common people are water; water carries a boat, and water covers the boat. For this reason, because the country at that time was a country with one surname, the world was a world with one surname, so this is said. Now, the world is the world of the people, and this is said to have changed. What is the king and the people at this time? The people are water, and the court is fish, and the fish will not survive without water. The three corps release some industries from the people, which is to release water from the people to support the court. If the industries of the three corps are all the officials, they will be isolated from the people. The so-called "severance from the people will have no way to survive. The three corps have this industry, and the people also have it. Learning from each other and complementing each other is the way to last."

Official-owned enterprises may not be inefficient, and private enterprises may not be inefficient. In fact, it is difficult for private enterprises to compare with official-owned enterprises. However, without private industries, official-owned industries will increasingly tend to live behind closed doors, and they will gradually become corrupted like the current imperial guards. The reason why Xu Ping asked the three officials to give concessions to the public was not because of the system or efficiency and management issues, but simply to maintain economic exchanges between officials and the people. When the proportion of private enterprises is too large and threatens the future of industrial development, it is also very normal to operate in reverse.

In Xu Ping's previous life, state-owned enterprises were very obvious examples. They were isolated from society and gradually developed to form their own small circle culture, and to hereditary succession. They lost their sense of social responsibility and were in a mess. As for the system issues, or some people think that state-owned enterprises are not good, and they have to sell them all into private enterprises. It is purely because some people want to swallow public interests and compile them for their own private interests. Many state-owned enterprises have maintained their ownership unchanged and fully entered market competition, but have developed very well. Whether it is the treatment of workers or the quality of products, state-owned enterprises are not bad.

First, in order to win the support of this small circle, they kept them closed and formed a special interest gang, thus losing the hearts of the people outside the circle. They could not control themselves and then smashed them all at once, kicking these people away, and losing the hearts of these people. Such power tricks can only succeed for a while, and eventually leaving behind the consequences of the whole society's economic disability. I don't know how much effort it takes to wipe off their butts.

Once people lose their hearts, no matter how much investment in the system and economy is, it is difficult to achieve results. In Xu Ping's previous life, many cities dominated by state-owned factories and mines could not be saved after their decline. It was not that there was insufficient resources or that the methods were wrong, but that the people there had been deceived badly and nothing was used. After investing money, they did not find a way to develop, but how to put the money in their pockets. As for the future, previous experience told them that they could not think about the future.

In the public world, the regime and the people are the relationship between fish and water. Without fish in the water, it is a pool of stagnant water, and fish cannot survive without water. Therefore, Xu Ping asked Sansi to transfer the industry to the public to feed the people's business operations. As for whether the business is good, the efficiency of the business, and even the quality of the product, Sun Erlang and others are far inferior to Sansi's business operations.

This is the meaning of selling official business and transferring the interests of the three business business. Private business is more efficient than official business, which means that there is a statement. The fundamental reason for capitalism is that they only have rational natural persons they talk about in economic activities, that is, everyone is selfish, and everything is for themselves. On this basis, a liberal market economy has been formed. Socialism is just the opposite, and it believes that there are only social people in economic activities, so it is based on public ownership.

With experience in previous lives, Xu Ping knew that neither of these two extremes was reliable. It was the regime and the people who blended each other and were closer to reality.

Water can carry a boat, but it can also overturn it. Xunzi said about that era. In the era of family and world, there is a master and a guest, and the ruler is right to understand it like this. It is not a family and world. In the era of public world, it will not be in line with the reality of the times.
