He blushed and greeted the old man. Sun Chunming was really embarrassed for a moment. After chatting for a few more words, Zhao Kuangyin asked the old man to cook tea.

After drinking for a while, the atmosphere gradually became depressed. It was almost time to talk about the serious business. Zhao Kuangyin said, "Why am I here this time? I think you should be very clear. When I was playing mahjong at your house, what the third brother said was really not what you taught me?"

Sun Yue and Sun Chunming shook their heads repeatedly, this is really not the case.

Zhao Kuangyin smiled and said, "The third brother's experience is quite a perfect match. I am very pleased to have such growth. As for you, the vision and knowledge of you father and son have always been unmatched by others. Tell me, what needs to be supplemented when moving the capital to Luoyang."

The father and son looked at each other, and Sun Chunming said, "Tell me."

Sun Yue nodded and started talking: "I am foolish in my opinion, for the great cause of stability in a century, it is imperative to move the capital. Kaifeng's restrictions are too great. It is a dangerous thing to say, but I will not talk about this anymore. I will only talk about this from the perspective of economic and people's livelihood."

"Economic perspective? This is fresh, tell me."

"In fact, since the Zhou and Qin dynasties, the capital of the country has been placed in the richest areas, such as in Luoyang during the Zhou Dynasty and in Chang'an during the Han Dynasty. At that time, the capital of the country was both the economic center and the political center. However, by the Tang Dynasty, the economic center and the political center gradually became separated. Chang'an was still the capital, but the economic center moved to Luoyang and Yangzhou. There is also the saying that Yang Yi and Er were Yang. It can be seen that since the Tang Dynasty, the economic center and the political center have already had a tendency to separate."

This was obviously the first time Zhao Kuangyin heard this statement, and was very interested for a moment and signaled him to continue.

"In fact, it's very simple to cause all this. Before the Sui and Tang Dynasties, the political center was not able to exist alone from the economic center, because if the capital was not built in an economically developed place, there would be no food enough food and life would be guaranteed. After the Sui and Tang Dynasties, the Grand Canal and the Jiangnan land were maturely developed. As long as the capital was next to the canal, it could be replenished at any time. Just imagine, if the economic center and political center were in Chang'an during the Tang Dynasty, then why would Guo Ziyi take the two capitals to the emperor after the Anshi Rebellion?"

Zhao Kuangyin suddenly realized and almost felt enlightened. The Sun family father and son were indeed different. The perspective of looking at the problem was so... strange, but it hit the nail on the head.

"As the political center of the Tang Dynasty, Chang'an has fallen several times, but Yizhou, Yangzhou, Zhongzhou, and most parts of Jiangnan can provide support to the Tang Dynasty at any time. This is the fundamental reason why the Tang Dynasty can continue to persist for more than a hundred years in the storm. If it were not for the problem of eunuchs' dictatorship within the Tang Dynasty that could never be solved, perhaps it would be impossible to revive the Tang Dynasty. This is the benefit of the separation of the political center and the economic center. I would say that it is not very popular. If one day, Hu Rio really breaks Kaifeng, why would the Song Dynasty make a comeback?"

"The integration of the economic center and the political center actually have many disadvantages. For example, the economy needs to make way for politics from time to time, and political operation has to consider certain economic factors. In the end, there is no way to promote each other, but instead it will only restrict each other. The most important thing is that it delays the possibility of the development of other economic centers."

"Let's talk about the Tang Dynasty, the economic center was not one or two places during the Tang Dynasty, but blossomed in many places. Suzhou, Hangzhou, Yangzhou, Yizhou and Luoyang were all brilliant pearls. What about the Song Dynasty? Kaifeng City is the best in the world, but it also directly cut off the possibility of economic development in other regions. Let's talk about Luoyang now. Luoyang's development is largely based on glass factories. If you didn't protect us, would anyone just use administrative means to move the glass factory to Kaifeng? The combination of politics and economy is often shaped by freaks. Looking at the whole country, it is actually unfavorable to do so."

"For the past five generations, Kaifeng, as the capital, has provided a solid economic foundation for the monarchs of all generations, including the officials, and it is natural that it is understandable. However, unlike your predecessors, you are a true emperor who is about to unify the world. When your vision expands from one place to another, Kaifeng will no longer be irreplaceable. Chinese civilization has developed for thousands of years and finally has the qualification to separate the economic center and the political center. Do you want to reverse history?"

Sun Yue became more and more excited as he spoke, and inevitably his attitude became a little overwhelmed. Sun Chunming hurriedly coughed aside.

Sun Yue pondered for a while and suddenly said, "The officials opposed the movement of the capital, which was nothing more than their interests. We father and son were prepared for this. When the glass factory was put into production, they had absorbed a large amount of their assets. As long as Luoyang continued to develop, sooner or later their family resources in Luoyang would be more and more than when they were in Kaifeng. At that time, they would naturally not fight desperately. Besides, the soldiers, Kaifeng New Army is now relying more and more on Luoyang to maintain. In addition to the glass factory, the steel factory will be trial-produced in one or two days. With the two complement each other, sooner or later, Luoyang can maintain the family members of the entire Kaifeng New Army.

How could they disagree with the moving capital? As for the people, as long as they continue to open up the canal and ensure that the transportation of the canal will not go wrong, our father and son can ensure that Luoyang City can be resettled. In this way, all officials, soldiers, and the people will not oppose the moving capital. It is a great thing that benefits the country, the people and the descendants. What else will there be? The only problem is that the King of Jin doesn’t want to move it anymore!"

Sun Chunming quickly coughed his lungs and almost coughed out. Why did this child say something angry? He should be almost forty years old, but he is still like a child in his work. You, an outsider, can talk nonsense about the matter between the two brothers? What's more, this also includes the problem of the crown prince.

Zhao Kuangyin reached out to signal, but said on his own: "The second brother is very clear about his thoughts. He has always been the leader in opposing the people's hearts. If he wants to do it alone, I will be unable to do it. Fortunately, you father and son are doing excellent things, and the conditions for moving the capital are almost ripe before they know it. To be honest, he and Zhao Pu have been too much in recent years. By taking advantage of moving the capital, they have also wanted to suppress them. There is nothing to avoid. One of you is Zhao Pu's apprentice and the other is the second brother's envoy, but now you have become the leading figures in moving the capital. It's really impermanent. Do you have any suggestions for them?"

The father and son looked at each other even more. No matter how stupid Sun Yue was, he would not dare to talk nonsense. If he really gave advice, he would definitely cut the mess and cut the two of them directly before saying it. But is this said? Zhao Kuangyin is not such a person either. If Zhao Kuangyin takes a step back, he will not dare to work for him.

Seeing this, Zhao Kuangyin couldn't help but smile bitterly. He knew that it was meaningless to ask others about this kind of thing, so he said, "Then tell me the third brother. To be honest, I want to take down Zhao Pu first. After all, no matter how ignorant the second brother is, he is still a younger brother. However, once Zhao Pu leaves, the second brother is the only one. To be honest, do you think the third brother can stand up and sing against the second brother?"
