Daqin: Zulong Asked Me to Be the Prince

TOLL!

To put it horribly, it is to buy road money!

Just as the highways of later generations charged "road maintenance fees" and "tickets" money for the Great Wall, he also charged fees for roads and the Great Wall!

Only in this way can he complete these fortifications quickly and well within three years!

In his prediction, the capital will be recovered in about 20 years, and then there will be endless profits!

This, in fact, is also a transaction, but the scale of investment is huge, and the time span is extremely long!

But the benefits...just as scary!

"What a joke!"

A censor opened his eyes wide and shouted,

"The roads of the world and the Great Wall are the emperor's work and belong to Da Qin! How can they be in your personal name?"

"You still have to charge people all over the world tolls? 39

"How can I compete with the people for profit with my dignified Qin? It's absolutely ridiculous!

"What's the difference between this and a robber who is blocking the road and robbing money?!

Qin Feng sneered,

"Of course there is a difference! And it's huge! 9

He said loudly,

"Since ancient times, why are robbers and rogues occupying the mountains as kings, and it is not uncommon for them to block the road and collect money?"

"It is precisely because the country has not built roads, and even after the roads are built, they don't care!

"No matter what the imperial court does, there are naturally gangsters who want to make money by intercepting passers-by, or even kill them!"

"You are not ordinary people. You don't know how difficult it is for ordinary people to travel far away. It is very likely that they will die on the road!"

Qin Feng turned to look at Ying Zheng and said solemnly:

"And what if after the road is built, a toll station is set up every tens of miles and someone is sent to collect tolls?"

"There are three benefits!"

"First, the huge wealth spent on road construction can be recovered continuously. There are so many roads in the world, and so many people travel, and within twenty years, all the money can be recovered! 35

"And the money recovered can be reinvested in new infrastructure construction, and finally all roads lead to Xianyang, and even the world! 99

"If the imperial court is ignorant of allocating funds, it will definitely not make ends meet! And what I am talking about is a virtuous circle!

Ying Zheng's pupils shrank suddenly.

shit!

The ministers' eyes also lit up - what makes sense!

"Second!"

Qin Feng stretched out his second finger and said,

"Setting up toll booths can prevent thieves and robbers from blocking the road and robbing people! 55

"Every toll station must be equipped with soldiers to patrol the area under its jurisdiction. If there are any illegal people, they will be killed directly! 99

"In this way, it can not only ensure the safety of the lives and property of all pedestrians, but also limit the robbers and robbers, so that they will not dare to do harm again! At least not dare to jump directly on the road and rob!"

The second benefit is that many ministers are nodding their heads.

Wonderful!

What a fool! It can even fight thieves!

"What about the third?" The censor who had just made a rebuttal, couldn't help but ask at this moment.

"Third, it is possible to strengthen control over the entire world through this means!

Qin Feng said with a smile,

"Although the six kingdoms have been destroyed, is Da Qin really unified?"

"I don't think so! The real rule of the world is to have an imperial edict, so that it can be effective and spread to every corner of the world!"

"This can naturally be achieved through the Qin officials' slow governance.

"But if the royal father is in a hurry, he can set up guardhouses all over the world through the model of setting up toll booths, and the immediate effect will be immediate! 35

Toll booths, from a certain point of view, are actually the guards that Daqin has placed all over the world!

・・・・For flowers...  

It is not only an armed force, but also can convey the orders of Emperor Qin to the county and township!

boom!

Ying Zheng stood up abruptly, clapped his hands and praised:

"OK!

"wonderful!""

"I do have an idea, I want to place soldiers in the world and manage the area!

"Now it seems that the toll station model you mentioned can achieve perfect expectations!

He is impatient!

Qin Feng's strategy is too much to his taste!

"What's even better is that this group of soldiers who are placed in the toll booths do not need any funds from the imperial court to support them.

Qin Feng said happily,

"Of the tolls collected, a part of the toll is used to pay for the army every year. It is completely self-sufficient and there is a surplus! 35

"Besides, there are many benefits, so I won't tell the father one by one.

"My son just wants to ask, is the royal father still willing to agree to my request? 35

Qin Feng's willingness to speak so thoroughly means that he doesn't really want to eat this project!

It's not that you can't pay, it's that you don't have the qualifications!

Such a large project is simply not something that a private person can eat!

If you really eat it, I am afraid that there will be an accident in a few years, and then the industry will be nationalized...

Therefore, this is actually another way of persuasion!

Admonish Yingzheng to adopt this new national policy that benefits the country and the people!

Sure enough, when he asked such a question, everyone shook their heads in their hearts.

Still young!

If you don't speak so thoroughly, the emperor may agree in a confused way.

But now... all fools know that this is a hugely lucrative project! And it also involves part of the military power and even the control of the world!

They were all a little excited and wanted to take a share of the pie.

Can the emperor agree?

Think too much! Lose.
