62 – Those who utilize the land (2)

One day, I had a conversation with Zhuge Liang, Sima Yi, and Xu Xu.

“What is the most effective way for those who rent land to cultivate it?”

How can everyone work together to farm?

I wanted to discuss this by gathering everyone’s opinions.

“Can I speak first?”

“Of course, Uiya.”

“I’m competitive.”

The path suggested by Sima Yi was competition.

“We give rewards to those who produce more from two pieces of land. All humans are beings who want to beat their opponents. If an opponent is determined and a competition arises, we will definitely work hard to beat the other person and cultivate the land.”

“In specific ways?”

“The condition of the crops is checked every month, and a pig is given to the one that has grown better. When the harvest season comes, a cow is given depending on who harvested more. They can raise these pigs and cows, and they can kill and eat them. You will be able to enjoy victory.”

“Indeed. Is that a worthy reward given to the winner?”

Sima Yi insisted on competition.

“Yang and Seo, please each tell us your thoughts on this.”

“It’s not good. Crops grow due to complex factors such as land, people, and rent. However, if you decide who wins or loses, the motivation of the losers may be dampened. The winners will be satisfied with winning and their discipline will become lax. “You can, and the loser can give up everything because he lost.”

Zhuge Liang sharply denied Sima Yi’s opinion.

“Then what about standing up?”

“This is a bit of a presumptuous opinion, but is it okay?”

“Anything is okay. Just tell me.”

“I think that if there is going to be a competition, the role of the manager is very important. As it is not decided in a very short period of time, the competition continues from March to the fall. Everyone wants to win, but if it is necessary to determine the winner or loser in farming, it takes at least August. “By September, the outlines of winning and losing will be set. If I think I’m going to lose…”

He stood and pointed to the lantern.

“I feel like I’m going to burn it.”

“that….”

“Yes, it’s a crime. But, are you really sure you wouldn’t do something like that? Aren’t humans capable of doing anything to win?”

“hmm….”

Sima Yi nodded heavily.

“I accept it. I recognize that compensation for the loser will be necessary, and that extreme situations may arise. But what if the loser can also enjoy it, and if it is a very short-term match?”

“It’s a festival.”

“Yes. For about 10 days, we will enjoy together some of the harvest. Since we are collecting the same amount, there will be no complaints, and since various harvests are mixed together for enjoyment, it will also be a way to interact with each other.”

“Then what about the specific confrontation?”

“what….”

Sima Yi glanced at Zhuge Liang and continued speaking.

“An acting contest?”

“performance?”

“It’s about competing to see who can act the most realistically on a given topic.”

“Then Sima Yi will win.”

“Oh my, it’s a competition where the winner is decided, so why would I win? Is there anyone more sincere than me?”

“…….”

Suddenly, a shiver ran down my spine.

I said we should all work together to find the best opinion, but why are Sima Yi and Zhuge Liang increasingly at odds?

If you ask Zhuge Liang’s opinion like this, you’ll be in big trouble.

I’m sorry, but I pointed the arrow at someone else.

“Stand, what do you think?”

“…….”

Seo’s eyes say so.

Are you asking me to talk now? Why are you ordering it now?

But guess what? The teacher is me, and I stand and call myself a disciple.

“Go ahead and tell me.”

“…Wouldn’t everyone do well if left to their own devices?”

Seo’s opinion was vague enough to be called a solution.

“When people are hungry, they struggle to survive. Even if things are difficult, when they are hungry, they will look for food and shove kudzu in their mouths. Even if they have lost their family. Even if they are sick and suffering from the death of a family member, their family “Even if you feel ashamed that you are putting something in your mouth to avoid dying when this person is dead.”

However, Seo’s opinion was also the one that best suited the difficult times.

“Survival of the fittest. In an age where immediate survival is more urgent than law and ethics, people must find their own way to live. If there is a way to live, you must follow it. Life is not something that others live for you.”

“So, those from Xuzhou will take care of their own affairs?”

“If you have a strong will to live.”

Seo presented a solution from Seo’s perspective.

I could roughly guess what she wanted to say.

A strong will to life.

If you want to live, you will work hard, and as a result, you will naturally take an active part in farming.

It would be like that because Seo lived that way.

Of course, she lost her father and overcame this difficult time with her mother.

“I’m not sure about that.”

Sima Yi shook his head with a complicated face.

“Humans are evil and weak at the same time. Not all humans are as strong as Wonjik. Is there any need for the term self-determination?”

“…….”

“It may vary depending on the person, but if you lose something so precious, isn’t even your will to live broken? Just like the apostle Wang Yun, who sacrificed everything for the country.”

Apostle Wang Yun.

The person who assassinated Dong Tak through Yeonhwan-gye, but was cornered by Lee Gak and Gwaksa’s group and eventually committed suicide.

“Of course, there was a high possibility that he would be killed by Lee Gak and Master Kwak, but if he really wanted to live, wouldn’t he have gotten down on his knees and begged for his life?”

“Do you see that as weakness?”

Once again, Zhuge Liang had a confrontation with Sima Yi.

“Isn’t that not because of weakness, but to protect loyalty to the country? For the sake of Han’s precariousness and the Han imperial family?”

“Well. Do you show your loyalty by dying? You live like homework with Baek Yi, and when you die, you obey him…”

When I raised my hand, they lowered their voices.

“I know what you want to say to each other, but if you talk without an intermediary, you won’t be able to understand.”

Perhaps because it was a conversation between two talented people, the two clearly understood what each other wanted to say even though the context was omitted in between.

Of course, I also talked to them for a long time and was barely able to get the context.

I don’t know if it’s accurate.

“We will discuss later whether self-determination is due to human will being weak or strong. What we want to discuss now is farming.”

“I’m sorry. I did it for no reason.”

“No. What Wonjik said is right. If you don’t have the will to live, you will be left out, and if you want to live, of course you will try. But isn’t there a way to make it easier for those who want to live?”

I want to live life comfortably.

Couldn’t that kind of thinking be applied to farming?

“It’s the best way to work comfortably but produce a large harvest.”

“What is your point of view, Master?”

“Me? Um….”

If this had been a discussion with a correct answer, I would have cleared my throat and recited it like a citron.

But I asked this because I also don’t have an answer.

“I want to focus on human desires.”

“Desire?”

“Yes. Human desire. To be specific, it is an asset.”

gold and land.

That’s right, it’s wealth.

“I decided to rent the land to people who had already come down from the past and receive a certain amount of the land price. Although I heard people say that I set the interest rate too low during the process, I believe that people will flock to my land and do more work. hey.”

“It was because he could have more, right?”

“okay.”

Anyone who thinks something is theirs will work hard.

“If you thought it was your land, if you thought most of the grains growing on this land were mine, wouldn’t you really work hard?”

Stimulates human desire to possess.

That is the solution I see.

“There is no one who can say no to land given to them.”

“…Indeed, I understand what you are saying. We give the land owned by the wealthy to the people of Yeonju, and if they settle down and farm for 15 years, we give them ownership of the land.”

Sunwook clearly understood what I meant.

“You probably don’t like it.”

Hot.

“The land of the wealthy could have been incorporated into the land of the Jo family, but it was all incorporated into the land of Jojo’s army… the ‘Guan’.”

“Is it still just a suggestion?”

“No. What you say will become the Duke of Zhou’s choice through my words. What the Duke of Zhou needs is the loyalty of the people, not the land left behind by the traitors of Yeonju.”

Sunuk spread his arms and pointed to the wide land.

“The Duke of Zhou wants the world. This Dunjeon will become the foundation for conquering the world. If the people do not leave Yeonju and continue to support our army, they will become a powerful force even in ten years.”

“You’re looking at it long term.”

“Of course. Thanks to someone, my perspective on the world has been greatly opened.”

Sunuk stretched out his hand towards me.

“Would you like to come with me now?”

“I’m not going.”

“A heartless person.”

“…….”

“I intentionally didn’t say anything and just endured it. Hmm, okay. It’s a bit hard to say this as a reward for helping me this time, but if things get weird in the future, I’ll sincerely apologize to you then.”

Sunuk narrowed one eye and took the gun.

“Don’t let Jingzhou be taken over by war.”

“Thank you for that.”

“I’m not kidding. Never again.”

Sunuk’s voice gained strength.

“There will never be anything like Western Zhou again. If we can accept your offer and embrace the people.”

The framework of Mindun (民屯) was established.

“But there is a fundamental error in this. Do you know what it is?”

“Even if the amount of grain harvested is large….”

“The labor must be hard. That’s how hard you work on farming.”

‘Comfortably’ eventually disappears.

Sima Yi is competitive and competitive.

The strong human will to stand.

I have a desire for possession that humans have.

…All answers are far removed from the efficiency perspective of ‘work less and gain more.’

‘The more you work, the more you earn.’

This is because the underlying consciousness is:

No matter how much I think about it, this is my limit.

“Does Liang have any good method?”

“Rather than saying it’s good, it’s more of a direction.”

Zhuge Liang pointed to farmland.

“Isn’t it better to dig with a shovel than to dig with your hands?”

“yes.”

“Then wouldn’t it be okay to make it? Things that would allow people to farm easily and with less effort.”

“…how.”

“hmm.”

Zhuge Liang spoke calmly.

“well?”
