Chapter 501
"Why?"
Chen Deng was young and impulsive after all, and upon hearing this, he asked in confusion: "Does Father think that Su Xuan has the possibility of achieving great things and controlling the world in the future?"
Chen Gui nodded helplessly: "Although I am very unwilling to admit this, I do have concerns in this regard!"
"I have also carefully studied Su Xuan's new policies; they are indeed not very friendly to the scholar-official class, but they can win the hearts of the vast masses of the people;"
"How many people are there in the scholar-official class? Accounting for one percent of the world's total population is the absolute limit;"
"The rest are all the common people;"
"Can you imagine what the world will really be like in the future once Su Xuan gains the recognition and support of 99.9 percent of the people in this world?"
Chen Deng frowned upon hearing this: "But the ones who control 99.9 percent of the world's wealth, power, and troops are also us, the one percent of the scholar-official class!"
"The mere common people, as cheap as grass, where even survival is a problem, what kind of waves can they stir up?"
"Weren't the Huang Jin rebels back then just like that?"
"It's different!"
Chen Gui shook his head: "The Huang Jin rebels of the Taiping Dao were all mud-legged peasants who didn't understand officialdom or government affairs; Su Xuan is different;"
"Look at what he has done in Nanjun and Jingzhou over the years?"
"The new policies are only one aspect; his real trump card is the large-scale establishment of education to cultivate his own talents;"
"Moreover, these talents are mostly from poor backgrounds, born as commoners, and they are learning Su Xuan's set of new policy ideas;"
"They are born supporters and executors of the new policies;"
"This is also the fundamental reason why Su Xuan was able to take Jingzhou in a short period of time and complete the new policy reforms within Jingzhou without causing chaos."
"Without these talents he cultivated himself, his new policies would indeed have no way out, and by offending the vast majority of the scholar-official class in the world, he would simply be seeking his own death;"
"However, with the addition of his education system, the situation is completely different!"
