Beside Shen Mo are all disciples from the internal affairs and economic fields such as Yang Yanbin and Ouyang Mingzhou.

At this moment, Shen Mo was listening to Ouyang Mingzhou's report.

What Ouyang Mingzhou is talking about is a survey report he made after visiting markets in various parts of Jiangnan.

According to Ouyang Mingzhou's investigation, the economy of the Song Dynasty has been greatly improved after the rectification of the commander three years ago.

At this time, Shen Mo listened to Ouyang Mingzhou's words, but his thoughts gradually drifted away.

He looked at the green onions and the late spring scenery, but his expression was thoughtful.

After Ouyang Mingzhou finished speaking, Yang Yanbin and others also reported the results of the investigation to Shen Mo one by one.

After that, Ouyang Mingzhou smiled and said, "Teacher!"

"After summarizing the results of our investigation, we found that the economy in Jiangnan has now greatly exceeded our expected growth."

"If we follow this growth rate, ten years later, our Song Dynasty's economic strength will be more than twice as high as it is now! At that time, the Song Dynasty will be rich in resources and have sufficient soldiers and food.

No matter how invaded foreign humiliation is, it will be difficult to pose a threat to us!"

"This is all teacher, you..." When Ouyang Mingzhou said this, he suddenly saw the look on the teacher's face cold.

The commander's face not only did not see any joy, but he also showed unhappiness.

He was immediately stunned and stopped the following words.

At this time, Shen Mo looked at a report in each of them and shook his head slightly.

"None of these data is accurate."

At this moment, Shen Mo said something, which immediately changed the faces of Ouyang Mingzhou and others! "A few months ago, I asked Miss Wen to go home."

At this time, Shen Mo said to his disciples lightly: "Then she came back and truthfully reported the situation in her hometown to me."

"After this, I sent another investigation team to gather the livelihood situation of the people in various parts of Jiangnan to make a summary." When he said this, Shen Mo raised his head and looked at his disciples with two shining eyes.

"Do you think that the economy has risen and the people's lives will be better?"

After hearing the commander's words, Ouyang Mingzhou and Yang Yanbin suddenly thought of it.

When I collect data and observe business by myself, I miss the important situation of people's livelihood.

The young people present were suddenly embarrassed and blushed! At this moment, Shen Mo said lightly: "In addition to the lives of the lower-level people at the beginning, the lives of the people at the bottom have changed due to our economic reform, and the workers in the silk reel factories and other factories we opened in various places are still alright."

"In fact, in the past year and a half, people's income and quality of life have been declining... Do you know this?"

Seeing that the white-clothed students in front of him all lowered their heads, Shen Mo's tone began to become a little heavier.

He then continued, "After all, we cannot send the documents from Tongzhou Economic Zone to every businessman, nor can we protect them all the time."

"But the local clan forces, conservative ideas, and coercion from the government never stopped affecting them in one day!"

"In other words, local governments may not dare to do anything blatantly to them.

But they have some means to make these merchants obey the power of the clan and the government!"

When Shen Mo said this, his eyes when he looked at everyone began to gradually become colder: "I gathered all my strength in my hands to start the Taishan Trading Company and mobilized four major consortiums to win the economic war.

At that time, we successfully changed the economic model of the Song Dynasty, but what about it?"

"As long as the people who are the masters of the country are still the ones they have, the emerging businessmen we have cultivated will inevitably be attracted and coerced by them, which will force them to surrender to power."

"It won't take a few years. Regardless of whether people like Maolin are willing or not, the next group of monopoly merchants will appear in the world again!"

… “So you made a few mistakes,” Shen Mo looked at the white-clothed students in the pavilion and shook his head and said, “First of all, you have miscalculated the speed of economic growth.

The false prosperity now is actually the result of our effective regulation of the market in the early stage, and the rapid expansion of overseas markets by us."

"The second point is that the lives of the lower-level people have not changed, the accelerated flow of goods in the market has not benefited the people, nor have they become rich.

The profits of those merchants began to flow towards the clan and government again, and their exploitation of the people was gradually intensifying!”

"Then the third point, due to the inertia of the system, the economy that we adjusted three years ago is slowly sliding into the monopoly abyss of collusion between officials and businessmen!"

"It's still quadrupled in ten years?

In another three years, the Song Dynasty's economy will return to its original position! Everything we do with the economy and the market will be useless, do you understand?"

When Shen Mo said this, everyone was already shocked! None of them expected that although they had arrived in Jiangnan in person, they had conducted detailed investigations.

But he still can't compare to their teacher in Tongzhou, but his eyes see through the truth about prosperity!... "And these are actually just appearances," Shen Mo shook his head and said, "Everything I said before is just a symptom of the Song Dynasty's economy."

"There is a deeper reason for this symptom, which is the cause of this patient."

After Yang Yanbin and Ouyang Mingzhou and the others heard it, the teacher said three diseases that they had not seen and were gradually deteriorating.

They actually talked about the real reason for this incident... They were immediately excited! To be honest, when they were learning arts from their teachers, they always felt extremely exciting and shocked.

Because these students often do not have a broad vision or have a high perspective on things.

They would be forced to raise their thinking by one or two words by their teachers!…”After the end of the day…” Shen Mo stood up from the seat under the comments of these students with bright eyes, and then he walked step by step from the shade of Wanghai Pavilion to the sun.

"I can let my subordinates do their business with the principle of justice, but this is ultimately ruled by man, not ruled by law."

"There is a saying in this world that is called "A man's death and political retention."

If there is no good enough system, it is not necessary to restrict it.
