·What is the essence of the "salt and iron monopoly"
war that started during the period of Emperor Wu of Han? It is massacre and plunder.
But the biggest factor affecting war is not military power, but wealth. With the sound of a cannon, gold is ten thousand taels. This is a law that has not changed forever.
How much money did Emperor Wu of the Han dynasty spend years in battle? In the two years from 123 to 124 AD, Wei Qing lost 100,000 soldiers and horses and consumed more than 200,000 catties of gold in a single expedition. See clearly, not two.
Just build a Shufang City, mobilize more than 100,000 people, spend tens of billions of dollars, and the military castle deep into the loop like this is linear. Think about how much it will cost in total! At this time, what was the income of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty in a year? It is 4 billion yuan.
Han Wudi not only spent the huge legacy that his ancestors had accumulated for him, but also overdrawn the wealth of his descendants for generations .
So how did Emperor Wu of Han maintain this credit card that he maxed out? That is to do everything.
Salt, iron, wine, transportation, customs and other industries that were originally open to the private sector were so profitable that they were monopolized by the imperial court by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty through administrative means.
not only that, he also invented the "picoin" and "strain money" to nakedly plunder the Han kings and people. After the vassals suffer losses, they will naturally retrieve their lost wealth from the common people, which forms a vicious circle.
Moreover, the emperors of later generations saw that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty could make money by making money, and they all followed suit.
·From Taoism’s inaction to the Confucianism of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty
After more than 800 years of war, Liu Bang finally ended the hundreds of years of division and chaos in my country’s history.
From Hou Lu's reform of "dividing land and reducing taxes" to raising the people, to Emperor Jing's rule by doing nothing. They are all relaxing the government's control of the bottom class, providing the most favorable policy for the lower class people. In the land policy of Z9z
Lvhou's land policy, the civilians can be divided into one hectare of fertile land, while the provincial officials only have 25 hectares. This was the time when the gap between the rich and the poor was the smallest in 2000. And the tax at this time is the 15th tax, and the interest rate is only 6%. In addition, what Jingdi and others promote is Taoist thinking, which gives the people ample opportunities to adjust themselves.
At this time, the grain output of the Han Dynasty reached the historical peak, and it was as high as 3000 jin per person.
The policies and wealth that the predecessors had accumulated for Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty were tossed away by the juvenile emperor.
·Dethrone a hundred schools of Confucianism
Han Wudi thought his elders were stupid, and actually gave most of the profits to the people instead of expanding the treasury.
Not only that, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty still looked down upon the set of things his ancestors respected Taoism by doing nothing.
In the eyes of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, as long as the thought of Confucius was modified and modified, with the right of interpretation he wanted, it was much easier to use than Lao Tzu's Tao Te Ching.
is . He is the official altar and started the unique Confucianism that has affected us now.
Regarding Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty's brutal warfare and his unique Confucianism, it has an impact on future generations. Readers, do you think that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty is a woman of the eternal emperor? Or a sinner of all ages?
