It was also the first time that Huang Tinghui saw Li Dingguo's expression so cautious. Seeing Li Dingguo asking such a serious question, Huang Tinghui straightened his expression.

"I don't know if what I said is what you want to hear!"

"Or whether what I said is accepted by others."

"Since you want to hear it, you want to know what I think!"

"Then just ask!" For some reason, Huang Tinghui always felt that Li Dingguo, who was standing in front of him, would ask questions that many people couldn't see.

Perhaps Huang Tinghui and Li Dingguo are already very familiar with each other.

"Tinghui!"

It was the first time that Li Dingguo called Huang Tinghui so kindly. Huang Tinghui felt a little flattered by this kind name.

"Dasheng has been in existence for more than a hundred years, and every time I hear people say that Dasheng is at its most powerful era."

"Even if the grassland barbarians rise, the surrounding sea area will not be peaceful."

"But everyone thinks that the peaceful days of the Great Prosperity are still very long, but for some reason, I always feel that there is something behind this so-called peaceful and prosperous age."

"There are inexplicable and unknown crises surging in the dark."

"I always feel that the great prosperity of the country is in danger of overthrowing, and it only takes a moment."

Hearing what Li Dingguo said, even Huang Tinghui was stunned for a moment.

He didn't expect that the "martial arts idiot" Li Dingguo would ask such a question.

For issues like this, Huang Tinghui believes that perhaps only the ministers of the DPRK and Central Government can know something about it.

And it is what those talented and capable ministers can think of.

Huang Tinghui believed that although Li Dingguo joined the army to serve the country, he also wanted to protect the people of the world and did not think much about anything else.

But Huang Tinghui still underestimated Li Dingguo after all. He did not expect that Li Dingguo actually saw the huge crisis hidden behind this peaceful and prosperous era.

Not to mention, the danger of barbarians is the biggest crisis facing Dasheng Kingdom.

In Huang Tinghui's memory, there is another Ming Dynasty in time and space that is quite similar to Dasheng Kingdom.

They died due to internal peasant uprisings and external barbarian attacks.

"Dingguo, you remember there is a saying in "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" that says: The world will be united if it is divided for a long time, and it will be divided if it is united for a long time."

"Yes, the world will be united if it is divided for a long time, and it will be divided if it is united for a long time!"

"But these are peaceful times right now!"

Li Dingguo asked still somewhat puzzled.

Faced with Li Dingguo's doubts, Huang Tinghui smiled and shook his head.

"What is the foundation of a country?" Huang Tinghui looked at Li Dingguo and suddenly asked.

"The foundation of a country?"

"Common people?" Li Dingguo replied.

"For the people, the population, in the final analysis, they are people!"

"The most fundamental problem of a country is its people!"

"The most fundamental need of human beings is survival, and survival requires nothing more than the four aspects of 'food, clothing, housing and transportation'."

"Food is the top priority. If people want to survive, eating and drinking water are crucial."

"There are water sources everywhere, and people rarely worry about water sources."

"And since ancient times, the reason why people are not afraid of life and death is to resist and rebel!"

"Isn't it just for food?"

"Isn't it just to have enough food to survive?"

"Therefore, whenever a major disaster strikes, civil unrest will begin."

Huang Tinghui started from the basic needs of human beings and told Li Dingguo his own opinions.

Li Dingguo also listened to Huang Tinghui's words very seriously.

"Tinghui, you are right!"

“When people don’t have enough to eat, they can do anything.”

"At that time, people would rebel, and it was normal for the country and the country to be unstable."

Li Dingguo sighed and said to Huang Tinghui.

"So Dingguo, do you know why there is so much land in the world?"

"Why can't some people even have a bite to eat?"

Hearing Huang Tinghui's question, Li Dingguo was obviously stunned.

yes!

The world!

In such a huge world, how can someone not even have a bite to eat?

So where is the problem?

And why does this happen?

"Dingguo must be very strange. The world is so big and there is so much land!"

"As long as there are people who have a strong voice, they have a field and they can grow something in the field."

"Then if you have something to eat, won't you be able to survive?"

"But Dingguo, think about it, there are so many people in the world, can they really have land in everyone's hands?"

"Where did those lands go?" Huang Tinghui asked, looking into Li Dingguo's eyes.

When asked by Huang Tinghui, Li Dingguo suddenly realized, "All those lands are in the hands of the landlords!"

"So much land in the world has passed into the hands of landlords."

"So for ordinary people, they don't have land at all."

"They can only work for wealthy families in exchange for a bite to eat!"

"In addition to the food given to the court, these people also had to give most of the food to the landlords."

Li Dingguo frowned, as if he had thought of the root of the problem.

"Yes, Dingguo, you are right!"

"This is the root cause. If it were in peacetime, everything could still be maintained."

"But what if there is a natural or man-made disaster?"

"If a disaster occurs, ordinary people's homes will simply not be able to survive."

"At that time, they didn't have any food in their hands."

"But they have to survive, so what can they do? How should they do it?"

"They have no choice but to rob and kill to keep themselves alive!"

"When things are small, we make small fuss, but when things get big!"

"That's rebellion, it's the overthrow of the dynasty."

"And this situation will continue to get worse because people's hearts are greedy."

"Those landlords and wealthy people, if they have money and power, they will find ways to buy more land."

"The land in the hands of wealthy landlords has increased, while the land in the hands of ordinary people has decreased."

"When many people no longer have land in their hands, they will not have enough to eat in order to survive."

"Then the world will be in chaos!"

"And this is land annexation, which is the fundamental reason why a dynasty comes to an end."

"It is also the biggest crisis that Dasheng is facing at this time." Huang Tinghui and Li Dingguo said.

"Land annexation!" Li Dingguo looked at Huang Tinghui, although he had never heard of the word land annexation.

But from Huang Tinghui's analysis, Li Dingguo can also roughly understand the meaning of "land annexation".

"Tinghui!"

"You are a scholar and the smartest scholar I have ever seen."

"If what you said is true, then the destruction of Dasheng Kingdom may be a matter of time in the future!"

"If that's the case, is there any way to solve the problem of land annexation?" Li Dingguo looked at Huang Tinghui and humbly asked for advice.

"Dingguo, who do you think is the biggest landowner in the world?"

Faced with Li Dingguo's question, Huang Tinghui shook his head helplessly.

He asked with a wry smile.
