In the entire Yanhuang, no one can surpass Yang Guang.

So the emperors remained silent at this moment.

Don’t mess around with areas you don’t understand, otherwise you will only be slapped in the face by professionals.

Li Zicheng was so angry that he jumped straight away. He thought Chen Tong could use the art of quibbling, and he could just use the double standard method.

But I never expected that Chen Tong would say that Zhu Yuanzhang's system was correct!

This is clearly arguing with myself.

People do not pay food:

"Everyone listen, how shameless Chen Tong is!"

"You don't even admit the basic universal facts."

"Who doesn't say that there is something wrong with Zhu Yuanzhang's top-level design?"

"You are denying 1+1=2."

……………………

Chen Tong laughed loudly, his eyes full of disdain.

Chen Tong:

"I have told you that everything needs to be analyzed in detail, and professionals also need to do professional things.

Who put a big hat on Zhu Yuanzhang's top-level design system?

What about Zhu Yuanzhang's system in the economic dimension?

Aren't an economist?

Wrong!

They were all a bunch of historians.

I just ask, do historians understand economics?

Economics and other disciplines have different views on the three aspects. Do the conclusions they draw are in line with basic economic common sense?

It doesn't fit at all!

Historians don’t even know the basic common sense of economics, and they can’t even analyze the basic supply and demand relationship.

What do you think is the economic conclusion they have come to is a turbulent truth?

Isn't this ridiculous?

Just like many so-called masters of Chinese studies now, they crossed the border wildly, those who studied the Analects of Confucius evaluated poetry, and those who studied poetry evaluated opera.

Do you think what these people say is OK?"

……………………

Yang Guang laughed loudly, his eyes full of praise.

Infrastructure Madman (The Eternal Savages):

"Chen Tong is right. Do people who study history evaluate the economic system?"

"It will only go in the opposite direction."

"This is equivalent to being poor, they can't get rid of the blame, and they even teach others to make money."

"You dare to believe this?"

……………………

Wu Zetian's beautiful eyes were full of appreciation, and his eyes were full of tenderness when he looked at Chen Tong.

This is the man she admires. Just by Chen Tong's words, many people can shut up.

Why should historians decide on economic issues?

This is to judge whether those who study opera or perform operas have to judge whether they are good or bad?

What do they know?

Are there still few such cross-border things?

This can only be regarded as an entertainment program. It’s enough for laymen to listen to the excitement. Do you really regard these as the criteria for judging experts?

Heart of the Sea of ​​Illusion (Eternal Emperor, World Overlord):

"As we all know, how many of your so-called general public and your so-called experts know the economy?"

"A group of people who don't understand the economy judge Zhu Yuanzhang's economic system."

"I can only think of the word ridiculous."

……………………

Li Shimin was extremely speechless.

Chen Tong turned the tables in just one sentence.

Now even he is worried. Do those historians really understand economics?

If they really understand economics, why can't they understand Yang Guang's operations?

Why can't they explain why Yang Guang is so rich?

In their mouths, the reason why the Sui Dynasty was rich was that it frantically plundered people's wealth and ointment.

This statement is simply ridiculous, even Li Shimin doesn't believe it.

……………………

Li Zicheng felt even more uncomfortable than Li Shimin because he was the one who raised this question.

It was him who questioned the economic system designed by Zhu Yuanzhang.

He originally thought that this was a well-known thing and there was no need to argue, but Chen Tong could turn the tables like this.

He only now realized how strong Chen Tong is in his ability to argue.

Before we can discuss this, I feel that Chen Tong has already gained the upper hand.

And it has made people already very distrustful of the judgments of these so-called historical experts.

This is ability.

But he won't give in easily.

We are speaking with facts!

People do not pay food:

"Okay, okay, you Chen Tong is sharp-tongued, I can't tell you."

"Let's not talk about these theoretical issues. Let's analyze specific issues in detail, look at the top-level system designed by Zhu Yuanzhang, and analyze each item."

"See whether he is good or bad to the economy!"

"I'll ask you, is it because Zhu Yuanzhang used extremely low taxes that made the Ming Dynasty short of money?"

"Is this the biggest loophole in this system?"

……………………

Chen Tong couldn't help but laugh.

Chen Tong:

"Before discussing this issue, do you think about the question you asked is ridiculous?

An emperor of a dynasty adopted extremely low taxes, which was to benefit the people.

You actually say there is something wrong with this system?

On which side of your butt is sitting first?

You look at this issue from the perspective of a ruler, but do you know how good such a low tax rate is for the people?

Isn’t this the emperor the people most willing to meet?

The benchmark tax rate customized by Zhu Yuanzhang for the Ming Dynasty was a tax rate of 3%.

It can be said that in all feudal dynasties, this belongs to the lowest level.

Isn't this good?

And what you never imagined is that the next emperor of the Ming Dynasty raised the tax rate to 1.5%, which is the highest tax rate in Yanhuang in history.

I just ask, is this good or bad for the people?

You only see Zhu Yuanzhang collecting low taxes, so that the country does not have that much tax income.

But you can't see Zhu Yuanzhang hiding wealth among the people!

If it were you, would you have to customize high tax rates to exploit the people? Only then do you think this system is good?
