I Want To Be Qin II

"Um."

On the throne, Yingzheng pondered for a long time. He is the king, and what he needs is not only the development of Liangzhou and Xiazhou, but also the overall situation. Yinggao's military talent can be seen by everyone in the world.

The ability above the merchants can also be called unparalleled in the world, but Ying Gao only stayed in Sanchuan County for a while when he was in charge of the government.

At this moment, Ying Zheng hesitated a little, because he knew that this decision was not easy to make, and once he made it, he would need to fully support Duke Xiao, just like the reforms of the Lord Shang.

"Your idea is good, and there is room for implementation. However, the premise of all this is that it cannot affect the great cause of the imperial court. If you can guarantee that it will not be affected, I can support your idea."

Ying Zheng knew that apart from what Ying Gao said, there was no other way for the Great Qin Dynasty at this moment. Moreover, in these years, from the Jiannan Chamber of Commerce, he also saw the importance of accumulating wealth and driving economic development.

After all, Ying Gao paid almost all of Da Qin's expenses alone. Ying Zheng was clear about this, and so were Li Si and the others.

"Father, the development of Liangzhou and Xiazhou, and further liberalization of restrictions on merchants will only benefit Daqin, but not too much harm."

"The people of Great Qin now have a very miserable life, but when merchants are prosperous, and the imperial court imposes heavy taxes on merchants, in this way, the imperial treasury can be sufficient."

At this moment, Ying Gao glanced over the faces of Ying Zheng and the others, and said firmly, "Father, when the Great Qin annexes the world, there will be a lot of money and food to spend."

"However, the land of the Central Plains, which has just experienced war, needs to recover. In this case, it is not suitable to increase tax collection. Otherwise, the common people will not be able to live on, and the government will force the people to rebel."

"And the merchants are prosperous, and the commercial tax collected is heavy. In this way, the operation of the court can be guaranteed. With the commercial tax as the foundation, the father and the king can reduce the taxes of the farmers in the world."

"Even for the Guanzhong area, tax reduction and exemption for three years, or five years, to win the hearts of the old Qin people."

.........

Hearing Ying Gao's impassioned statement, at this moment, not only Ying Zheng was moved, but Li Si, Zheng Guo and others were also moved. As policymakers, they naturally knew the impact of tax reduction and exemption on the people of the world.

This is also the best way for the imperial court to win the hearts of the world.

"What you said is very good, and the vision for the future is also good, but I have one more question!"

Ying Zheng took a sip of tea from the teacup, suppressed the shock in his heart, and said to Ying Gao, "If the restrictions on merchants are further liberalized, all the people in the world will go to do business, who will join the army and who will farm? "

"Hahaha........"

With a chuckle, Ying Gao turned to Ying Zheng and said, "Father, Li Xiang is a great talent in the world, and he is also a well-known water engineer in the internal history of Zhisu. If Li Xiang governs the country, he must be elected. Let Zhisu The construction of water conservancy in internal history must be easy to grasp."

"However, if you let Li Xiang and Zhi Su Neishi go to farm, command an army to conquer a country, and do business, although they will achieve something, how can they be as good at their respective fields of expertise. "

"Father, everyone is good at different things. Not everyone is suitable for business, and not everyone is suitable for court. Father, there is no need to worry about this."

"Besides, even the new Golden Cloth Law is only temporarily implemented in Liangzhou and Xiazhou. I told my father before that I plan to use the power of the three major chambers of commerce to gather the strength of the Liangzhou and Xiazhou government offices. , cooperate with the merchants inside Daqin to build Yuecheng to Xianyang, and then Guzang and Xianyang economic belt."

"It seems that merchants from the entire Qin Dynasty are gathered to support Liangzhou and Xiazhou at the moment, but with the potential of Xiazhou and Liangzhou, in the future, the strength of the two states must be gathered to support Xianyang."

"After all, Xianyang is the midpoint of this commercial circle. Only with commercial exchanges can the economy be revitalized. In the future, Daqin cannot rely solely on the peasant class to provide taxes."

"According to my son's thoughts, the future Great Qin will inevitably be based on thousands of farmers. Therefore, we need to reduce taxes and increase the enthusiasm of farmers."

"However, merchants and all kinds of craftsmen will inevitably gradually combine to provide taxes for Daqin. Only in this way can Daqin not only be safe and sound, but also have the capital for war."

.........

for a long time.

After Yinggao finished drinking a cup of tea, the silence in the Xianyang Palace study was broken by Li Si: "Your Majesty, I think what you say is feasible. We can try it in Liangzhou and Xiazhou first, and if it is possible, we can spread it to the whole world." .”

"If it doesn't meet the requirements of the imperial court, it can be stopped. Anyway, the experiments in Liangzhou and Xiazhou will not have a big impact on Guanzhong."

After Li Si straightened out Ying Gao's words, he discovered that Ying Gao's idea was very feasible. He was a legalist and would not rest on his laurels.

The reason why Great Qin was strong back then was because of reforms, but now that Great Qin is about to sweep across the six countries and establish an unprecedentedly powerful country, Li Si, the prime minister of Great Qin, naturally demands changes.

"Your Majesty, the ministers also feel that the young master's words are feasible. We can definitely try it in Liangzhou and Xiazhou. In this way, no matter whether it is success or failure, the risks are completely within the controllable range."

At this moment, Zheng Guo and the others also spoke, and they also agreed with Ying Gao's words. Although they didn't have much confidence in their hearts, Ying Gao had brought too many miracles over the years.

Since its rise, Yinggao has almost never lost.

The most important thing is that such a pilot project will not affect the mainland of Daqin, which is why Li Si and others agreed with the experiment.

As long as the risks are controllable, the rulers and ministers of the Great Qin Dynasty have never lacked the determination to seek change.

"good!"

Nodding his head, Ying Zheng's sharp eyes passed over the faces of Li Si and the others, and finally landed on Ying Gao, saying: "This matter, Mr. Gao and Li Xiang will take the lead, and then Tingwei Mansion and Shaofu will To govern the Suuai Historian Office, all the involved offices cooperate."

"Strive to resolve this matter within the end of the new year, and wait for the spring of the next year. I only hope that the whole court will devote itself to going east to destroy Korea."

"promise."

Nodding his head in agreement, Ying Gao was overjoyed that this matter was finally a success. Liangzhou and Xiazhou could definitely become the bases of the Great Qin Empire's future wars.

In Liangzhou Dama, there are iron ore veins and salt lakes. In addition, above Xiazhou, there is rice that is harvested twice a year. When it is developed, it must be a big granary for Daqin.

Li Si and the others understand this point. They know that both Liangzhou and Xiazhou have great potential for development. This is one of the reasons why they agree with Yinggao's point of view.

Because neither Liangzhou nor Xiazhou is a barren land in the true sense.
