Chapter 2030 Leading the way
To achieve the goal of no dissatisfaction, but also restrain the continuous development of the family. "
Emperor Xuanming became more and more satisfied the more he listened, and he also knew that these matters would involve a lot, so he was not in a hurry when he heard that Chu Heng wanted to reform the treatment of soldiers, and of course he took the opportunity to add insult to injury.
I want to see how Chu Heng fights against those officials, and how he can do what he said.
If he can only talk but can't do it, as the emperor, he naturally doesn't need to do such useless work.
Said it was to add insult to injury, but also meant to test him.
"In addition to this, there is the issue of human trafficking."
"If there is a way to make money in the future, the natural population will increase, and everyone will be more willing to have children."
"I think that human trafficking can be prohibited, especially parents buying and selling children, and husbands buying and selling wives and children." When Chu Heng said this, he was filled with emotion. Although there are many servants in the family, he prefers to hire people to come to the door work.
But the biggest problem now is too much eyeliner.
It may be very difficult to completely abolish human trafficking. Those aristocratic families will be the first to disagree. They are used to the life of being served, so how could they be willing to not have this kind of preferential treatment.
So Chu Heng's goal is actually the latter.
At least the forced sale can no longer happen, and the voluntary one is another story.
When Emperor Xuanming heard this, he already felt that his thoughts were a bit too taken for granted. There is no human trafficking, no servants? There are no eunuchs and maids in the palace?
He couldn't imagine, or even understand what Chu Heng was talking about.
"Chu Aiqing, in the matter of human trafficking, slavery is also a way of checking and balancing, what do you think?"
Emperor Xuanming said so, and Chu Heng was not disappointed. After all, this was a feudal dynasty, and it was not the future fair society for everyone that A Yu said, and he could not force it.
"Your Majesty, I understand." Chu Heng had no intention of confronting Emperor Xuanming at all, and he nodded slightly to show that he agreed with what he said.
Emperor Xuanming's face looks better now.
"I also know that the sudden abolition of human trafficking is delusional and may cause social shock, but I think that although there is no need to abolish human trafficking, it is also illegal for private human trafficking."
"Reducing such incidents can add at least tens of thousands of people to the imperial court a year, and among these tens of thousands of people, women account for the majority. There are now many more men than women in the entire Great Chu, which is why the population cannot increase. .”
"There are tens of thousands of people a year, and another 10,000 children will be born in two years. After a long time, the population will double in ten or twenty years. Now the Northland is only 200,000 Soldier."
“In the countryside, a woman can have five or six children in her lifetime, and these children can continue to reproduce after they grow up.”
"If there are too many people, there will be no one to grow the land, and there will be insufficient food. In addition, in the future, we will be able to do business with overseas customs, and the population and money will only continue to grow." When Chu Heng talked about the data, he was a little obsessed with it. Somewhat pedantic and emotional by the end.
Emperor Xuanming has never seen him so emotionally released.
He was also a little tempted to hear that, after all, these things are indeed what he needs most right now.
What does a country need to be strong.
People, silver, food, army!
"How did Chu Aiqing think of this?" Emperor Xuanming was really surprised.
Chu Heng said with some embarrassment: "Actually, I went to ask my wife."
