On the other side, Luo Haifeng heard himself praising the people of the Aisin Gioro Dynasty for their rich lives.
He was immediately mocked by Jiang Yuan.
Instantly, Luo Haifeng's lungs exploded with anger.
"Jiang Yuan, if you don't have any evidence and you're slandering me, Professor Sun Zhongyun and I will definitely report this to Shanghai University!”
Looking at Luo Haifeng who was trembling with anger, Jiang Yuan sneered,""Who says I don't have proof?"
After saying that, he raised the microphone and looked at the camera with bright eyes.
"Let's talk about the Ming Taizu period first. Ever since the Ming Taizu expelled the Hu captives, he issued a series of economic reform measures.”
"In addition, Zhu Yuanzhang severely punished corrupt officials and eliminated the court.”
"In the 10th year of Hongwu, the economy of the Jiangnan area in the south began to recover. Rice piled up like mountains in Jiangnan and Guangdong. The lives of the common people gradually improved, and the economy flourished.”
"During the period of Emperor Yong Le, Emperor Yong Le raised the status of the business and pushed forward the development of the business. At this point, the status of the merchants was raised and during this period, the prototype of the famous trading company appeared.”
" Until the Xuande period, when Emperor Xuande was honest and loved the people, and the people under his rule lived a prosperous life. The southern textile industry and other industries developed rapidly under the promotion of commerce, and there were Jin merchants, Wei merchants, and Zhejiang merchants.”
"The rice in the south is two to three times ripe. In addition, since the Yongle era, Zheng He has gone to the West seven times and opened up the maritime industry. He sold domestic tea leaves, porcelain, silk, and other items overseas, and the economy has developed again!”
"At this time, as long as ordinary people enter the textile factory to work, they can earn hundreds of copper coins a month. A year's salary is enough for the family to eat and drink.”
"At that time, a bushel of rice was only worth a few copper coins.”
As soon as Jiang Yuan finished speaking, Sun Zhongyun suddenly sneered.
"In the heyday of Kangxi and Qianlong, a bucket of rice is almost the same!”
"This doesn't mean that the people of the Ming Dynasty are better off than the people of the Aisin Gioro Dynasty!”
Jiang Yuan sneered in his heart when he heard the old thief's retort.
He immediately continued.
"Haha."
"Ever since Dao Guang succeeded to the throne, there have been frequent peasant uprisings, causing prices to rise rapidly.”
"The later emperors were even worse. They signed a series of agreements, ceding territory and paying reparations.”
"But where did these reparations come from? They were all taxes paid by the common people. All kinds of fire consumption money, additional labor money, corvee taxes, bit by bit, were collected from the hands of the common people.”
"Later on, a large amount of drugs flowed in from the west, causing many people to be sallow and emaciated.”
"This is ridiculous!"
" You…" Luo Haifeng's face fell when he heard Jiang Yuan's words.
He could wash away the rest of the history, but he couldn't wash away the history of the western customs.
Ignoring the furious Luo Hai Feng, Jiang Yuan looked at the audience and said in a deep voice.
"Perhaps everyone still thinks that the commoners of the Ming Dynasty and the Braid Dynasty haven't changed much.”
"Then I will continue to explain to everyone."
"First of all, the Ming Dynasty did not prohibit culture. There were almost no major literary inquisition incidents throughout the dynasty.”
"In terms of cultural contributions, there were four famous scholars, and there were countless scholars and poets. Three of the four famous works appeared during the Ming Dynasty.”
"Can the Braids Dynasty, which is popular in the Word Prison, compare to this?!”
The female host standing beside Jiang Yuan heard his explanation and her eyes lit up.
The audience in the live broadcast room also listened with interest.
Only Sun Zhongyun and Luo Haifeng, who were standing at the side, had extremely ugly expressions.
Jiang Yuan sneered as he watched Sun Zhongyun and the other man, whose expressions were extremely ugly.
"In the early Ming Dynasty, the social atmosphere was relatively frugal. In the middle and later periods, along with the rise of the status of merchants and the vigorous development of the maritime industry, the social economy was unprecedentedly prosperous. At that time, one-third of the silver in the West flowed into the Ming Dynasty!”
"Moreover, they were more particular about food, accommodation, clothing, and entertainment. Gradually, the concept of cuisines appeared, which was the four major cuisines in the early days.”
"Another important social ethos is the culture of collecting books. Both the government and the people like to collect books, and private collections are especially developed.”
" Under the stimulation of commerce, new technologies such as color printing and overprinting appeared. The number of printed books reached a new peak, which also expanded the readership of books. The emergence of various popular novels also provided another form of entertainment for the common people.”
"At the same time, the craftsmanship industry has advanced by leaps and bounds, and the style of furniture has entered a new stage.”
"Private gardens were also very developed in the Ming Dynasty and became the model of gardens. Among them, the most outstanding representative work of garden art was Ji Cheng's book, Garden and Smelting.”
"The entertainment trend of the people is also becoming more and more developed. The term tourism has appeared for the first time.”
"When a man gets married, he will be betrothed three times and six times. On the wedding day, he can wear a gorgeous official robe.”
"When a woman gets married, she will be carried by eight palanquins and officially married. She will be crowned with a phoenix crown and dressed in red robes!”
"How can the Aisin Gioro Dynasty compare to treating the people like this?”
"At the same time, in the southeastern provinces of the late Ming Dynasty, an unparalleled social welfare system was established.”
"There are alms homes in the southeastern cities, where the imperial court provides for the elderly and orphans.”
" Different cities also have welfare policies. They provide land compensation and financial assistance to bankrupt craftsmen and handicraftsmen who are disabled due to work.”
"During this period, the Ming Dynasty saw the emergence of the seeds of capitalist society, which was a hundred years earlier than the West!”
All the viewers in the live broadcast room were shaken by Jiang Yuan's words.
They could already imagine that this was a great era, an unprecedented golden age.
Business was booming!
The economy was developed!
Merchants went out to sea to sell goods, and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment.
Students had ambitions, and scholars and poets came forth in large numbers.
Three or five friends went sightseeing.
Strolling around the romantic scene, looking at the eight beauties of Qin Huai.
They went to restaurants to eat, taste the four major cuisines, eat delicacies, and eat delicious food.
Men marry, three betrothal gifts, six matchmakers, eight big sedan chairs.
When a woman marries, she wears a red dress ten miles away and marries officially.
When they imagined such a scene, the audience could not help but be stunned.
"Oh my god, is this the Ming Dynasty? At that time, one-third of the silver from the western countries flowed into the Ming Dynasty!”
"Previous poster, do you think customs doesn't make money? At that time, the country's main tax was on business taxes.”
"Just by listening to Teacher Jiang Yuan's description, I can imagine how prosperous this dynasty was.”
"Such good benefits, such as a nursing home, bankruptcy compensation, and hardship compensation.”
