Chapter 105: The energy has been exhausted and it is destined to die! (Please subscribe)

October.

October 1st of the Great Qin Dynasty is the beginning of the year.

That is the first day of the Lunar New Year.

The city is much more lively than in the past. When they meet in the Lu Zuo, most of them will smile and bow, saying to each other: "The good morning is good."

It's similar to the New Year greetings in later generations.

In the staggered inner door, peach talismans were changed in front of every household.

The board says "Shentu" and "Yulei".

Ji Heng's house door was closed, and the excitement outside had nothing to do with him.

He sat alone in the courtyard, quietly looking at the colorful leaves, not affected by the "New Year's atmosphere, nor did he feel lonely at all.

He has become accustomed to enjoying loneliness.

He took out a pot of wine sealed in the well and poured himself a full of copper jue. The wine was very cold, but after drinking it, it felt a different feeling. He pillowed his head with one hand and the other with the bronze jue. He looked at the sky calmly, and his mood floated away with the clouds above.

I don't know how long it has passed.

In this quiet house, a "creaking" sound suddenly sounded, awakening Ji Heng who was wandering.

He frowned and looked over.

Fusu walked in with a smile on his face, followed by an official, who was carrying a small bamboo basket in his hand.

Fusu bowed and said, "I have met Mr. Ji."

"There is good luck in Zhengdan."

Ji Heng took a light look and also returned the favor symbolically.

Fusu said: "I know Mr. Ji is basically alone, so I specially brought some food from the palace."

After saying that.

Fusu waved his hand.

Wei Sheng quickly placed the bamboo basket on the table.

Looking at the things in the bamboo basket, Ji Heng's eyes showed a strange color: "Cold skin?"

Fusu was shocked and said in surprise: "Mr. Ji knows this thing?"

A strange look appeared in Ji Heng's eyes.

This thing is actually very common in later generations, but it was listed as a tribute in the Qin Dynasty.

Ji Heng said: "I've heard of it."

"Mr. Ji is really knowledgeable. It's only been a few years since I learned about this." Fusu smiled bitterly, then raised his hand and signaled Wei Sheng to retreat.

Ji Heng did not refuse.

He has been in the Qin Dynasty for so long, but he really hasn't had the chance to eat it.

Just as Ji Heng tasted the cold skin, Fusu said in a deep voice: "Mr. Ji, most of the salt and iron merchants in Guanzhong have handed over the salt ponds and mines. The court has sent people to take over these days. Everything is going well and there are not many troubles."

"However, there are still a few companies that don't understand the times."

"In the end, the court did not continue to tolerate and brought merchants to justice according to the law."

Fusu felt a little nervous.

This is his order.

He did not seek Ji Heng's opinion either.

Ji Heng peeled a few pieces of garlic, patted it hard, and then threw it into the pottery bowl, stirring and said, "How the court does it, don't tell me, I just played the role of 'proposal'. You can decide what to do in detail."

Fusu said with a slight forehead and said, "Fusu remembers it."

"After the salt and iron were recovered, there were actually many objections in the local area, but it did not affect the stability."

"So I didn't care."

"After the situation in Guanzhong stabilized, Your Majesty also ordered this morning to pass on this law to the whole country. At the speed of the transmission of the Great Qin documents, it can basically be spread throughout the country within one month."

Speaking of this.

Fusu sighed lightly and said with emotion: "In the past thirty years, I seem to be timid in my career, but in fact I have made no achievements. Now that I have participated in the salt and iron work, I have really done something useful to Daqin. At least I can collect more commercial taxes and gain more time for Daqin."

"It's not a completely useless person."

"hehe."

Hearing words.

Ji Heng shook his head and said, "You are too optimistic."

"The salt and iron thing has just begun."

"Kanto and Guanzhong are different. Guanzhong can be controlled within a very small range, but it may not be possible in Guandong."

"There is a follow-up for salt and iron?" Fusu was shocked and said in a low voice: "But Mr. Ji, didn't you say before, just need to manage Guanzhong? The internal Guandong will suppress itself, why did you change your tone now?"

There was something wrong in Fusu's heart.

Ji Heng sucked the last bit of cold skin from the bowl into his mouth and said, "Kanto is just a general term, not really a solid piece. There will be some noise in Guandong. That is the time to truly test the Qin Dynasty."

Fusu bowed and said, "Dare you ask Mr. Ji, what will happen to Guandong?"

Ji Heng glanced at Fusu lightly and said coldly: "It will be messy."

"Chaos?" Fusu's face stagnated.

Ji Heng said lightly: "Kanto consists of six places, and merchants are in most areas with a low status, but there is one place that is different."

Hearing words.

"Qidi!" Fusu immediately understood.

Ji Heng nodded and said, "After Guan Zhong's reform, Qi's trade was extremely developed, so it invisibly increased the status of merchants. After the Qin Dynasty destroyed Qi, it did move most of the nobles and powerful Qi to Guanzhong, but merchants were actually very involved."

"The merchants value profit."

“There are many mountains and seas in the whole land.”

"Eat the mountains by the mountains, and eat the sea by the sea."

"The people of Qi operate salt and iron, and have already formed a considerable interest group. Now that the court is again "officials and seas", it is undoubtedly competing for profit with them. How could these people remain indifferent?"

"So something is destined to happen!"

"I know, in the past few days, when most merchants surrendered honestly, I had a lot of thoughts in my mind, and even wanted the court to copy the rules to control food, land, and the loan money that was very popular among the nobles in the past."

"But I'll tell you."

"A person can only do what he can."

Fusu lowered his head, but he didn't dare to look at Ji Heng.

He did have this idea.

Even when he came here this time, he was inquiring. Now when he heard Ji Heng's words, he didn't dare to speak anymore. He pretended to be pondered for a moment and asked, "If a rebellion really broke out in Qi, what should the court do?"

Ji Heng sneered and said, "The local rebellion, and the court should naturally quell the rebellion. Is there anything else to think about?"

"If the court participated, wouldn't it be a broken plan?" Fusu's face was solemn.

Ji Heng held his forehead and rubbed his temples again. He didn't know whether to say Fusu was innocent or Fusu was simple. He shook his head and said, "The court is the court, you are you. You just need to focus on Guanzhong at the moment. As for the affairs of the world, it was decided by the First Emperor."

"Even if Kanto is in chaos, what can you do?"

"It's not your turn to suppress the rebellion."

"You need to understand that everything is difficult at the beginning."

"Shangjia is already the best breaking point for Daqin. If even the merchants cannot change it."

"That's basically declared that Daqin is 'dead'!"

"It's just not buried yet!"

Ji Heng's tone became serious, even with a bit solemnity.

It was the first time Fusu saw Ji Heng so serious.

But he was still a little surprised and suspicious. Is the influence of merchant rebellion so bad?

He asked, "Sir, please explain in detail."

Ji Heng sat on his exclusive lounge chair, looked at Fusu coldly, and said in a deep voice: "The merchants are indeed not important, but the restoration forces behind the merchants are very important. The Kanto Rebellion will not be the rebellion of the rebellion of the merchants, but the restoration forces of the six countries."

"You need to understand the truth."
