    "This is indeed the second time. I happen to have some questions that I would like to ask Mr. Liu for advice."

    Hearing Liu Jin¡¯s words, Emperor Hongzhi nodded and said.

    Originally, he just came out to see how ordinary people in the capital cope with the cold winter. Unexpectedly, he met Liu Jin. He originally had many questions to ask Liu Jin, and he just took this opportunity to ask them.

    The same goes for Liu Jian, Xie Qian, and Li Dongyang. They also have a lot of questions to ask Liu Jin. Now that they have just met, naturally they don't intend to let Liu Jin go easily.

    "Don't hesitate to ask for advice. If you have any doubts, sir, just tell me. As long as I know, I will tell you everything."

    In front of Emperor Hongzhi, Liu Jin naturally had to be more modest.

    "Yesterday, I listened to the young master's speech at Wangyue Tower. I was enlightened and enlightened. I stayed up all night, thinking carefully about what the young master said."

    "Among them, regarding the monsoon, once the monsoon is too fast or too slow, there will inevitably be floods in the south and drought in the north, or drought in the south and floods in the north. But since ancient times, whether it is drought in the south and drought in the north or drought in the south and floods in the north, the problem has always been  The North and the South have historically had very few problems.¡±

    "Regarding this point, I also checked a lot of historical data last night, and it is indeed as the young master said, but I thought about it all night, and I still don't understand why this problem always occurs in the north, but rarely in the south.  "

    Hongzhi looked at Liu Jin, but he didn't mean to be polite to Liu Jin. He thought for a while and asked the question that he had not thought through last night.

    He is the emperor, and what he is most concerned about is naturally the issue of the eternal stability of the country. He also knows that the changes in dynasties in the past actually originated from the issue of peasant uprisings in the first place.

    Peasant uprisings all arise from the fact that they cannot survive. They only rebel when they have no other choice. A very direct reason for the inability to survive is that they encounter disasters and the grain harvest in the fields fails. Coupled with other factors,  Such as land annexation, official corruption, foreign invasion, etc., which in turn led to the change of dynasties.

    Emperor Hongzhi has been familiar with history since he was a child and was taught by famous teachers. He has read many, many histories and summaries of the past dynasties, and he knows this clearly.

    So when I heard that Liu Jin said that the monsoon was related to the change of dynasties, I was particularly interested. I have been thinking about this question, trying to find the answer, and then find a way to make the old Zhu family strong forever.

    Hearing Emperor Hongzhi¡¯s words, the three people present, Liu Jian, Xie Qian, and Li Dongyang, immediately became energetic. They all cheered up and wanted to listen carefully to what Liu Jin could say.

    As for the owner of the charcoal shop, Qian Youcai, he was all ears at this time. Men like to give advice and brag about things all over the world. Now that I am lucky enough to hear Liu Jin talk about this, how can I  There is a reason to miss it.

    ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? off ????

    Hearing Emperor Hongzhi's question, Liu Jin pondered for a while and thought rapidly in his mind. He had learned history after all. Emperor Hongzhi's question was actually very difficult to answer. If he really wanted to answer, he could only say  Due to the destruction of nature by human development.

    After Wei Wei sorted out his words, Liu Jin slowly said, "Actually, it's not difficult to answer this question."

    ¡°The Northern Central Plains, especially the Hanzhong Plain, is the origin of our Chinese descendants. These areas have always been the economic, political and population centers.¡±

    "As for the southern region, it was slowly developed gradually during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. It was not until the Tang Dynasty that the Jiangnan region in the south slowly became an important economic region. Now, it has become an important source of grain tax for our dynasty.  ."

    ¡°This northern region has a long history, a long period of development, a large population, and the changes in dynasties in history. The vegetation in this northern region has been severely damaged.¡±

    "Why do serious problems arise when disasters occur in the north? In the final analysis, it has to do with the environment and the forest."

    Liu Jin made a surprising statement, blaming the environment and forests for the proneness to famines in the north.

    "environment?"

    "forest?"

    Emperor Hongzhi, Liu Jian, Xie Qian, Li Dongyang and others were all dumbfounded. They had thought of countless explanations in their minds, but this was the first time they heard that it was related to the environment and the forest.

      "Mr. Liu, how can this environment and forest be related to the disaster?"

    Xie Qian was confused. He couldn't figure it out no matter how hard he tried. He couldn't connect the relationship between the two.

    "Of course it does matter, and it matters a lot."

    Liu Jin smiled and said.

    "We all know that during the Qin and Han Dynasties, the Guanzhong area was the core area. At that time, the Guanzhong area had lush vegetation, dense forests, and a very good ecological environment."

    "But as time goes by, the population increases, ordinary people cut down more and more forests, and cultivate more and more farmland. As a result, the forests gradually disappear and become countless fertile fields."

    ¡°Isn¡¯t it good to reclaim wasteland and turn it into fertile farmland?¡±

    Hearing this, Liu Jian couldn't stand it anymore. All dynasties have encouraged the reclamation of wasteland into farmland. But when it came to Liu Jin, it seemed that this was a bad policy.

    ¡°I¡¯m not saying that converting wasteland into farmland is bad, I¡¯m just saying that converting wasteland into farmland destroys vegetation and forests on a large scale.¡±

    "During the Qin and Han Dynasties, Shaanxi was a fertile wilderness with beautiful mountains and forests. Even in the Tang Dynasty, the environment in Shanxi and Shanxi was very good. But now, I don't know if any of you have been to Shaanxi and Shanxi.  This became the Loess Plateau.¡±

    "Without the coverage of vegetation, when the rain washes away, all the fertile soil is taken away, and the environment becomes worse and worse. The worse the environment, the weaker the resistance to natural disasters. Once a problem occurs, it will immediately cause huge  of famine.¡±

    Naturally, Liu Jin would not argue with Liu Jian about reclaiming wasteland for farmland. This was something that had been encouraged by all dynasties. If he opposed it, he would definitely not end well. He needed to prove from another angle that reclaiming wasteland and turning it into farmland was not necessarily necessary.  Even though it is good, it also has great disadvantages.

    "The northern region has always been a population center, a political center, and an economic center. As the population grows, the environment in the northern region, just like the Loess Plateau, becomes more and more fragile, and its ability to withstand natural disasters becomes stronger.  It¡¯s getting worse.¡± (Remember this website address: www.hlnovel.com
