Chapter 021 Do you dare to persuade His Majesty to do business? Are you afraid that you don’t know Lu Buwei’s fate?
What did you say?
Hearing Ying Zheng's words, Zhao Long was stunned for a moment, and then he couldn't help laughing.
"What if it's true?"
"Haha, can this still come true?"
Zhao Long Yile said, "That's all... Just say so... Just think of it as a joke..."
"Hehe...hehe..."
Ying Zheng smiled, but his eyes moved, "Yes, just think of it as a joke. If sir, you come to Da Qin, with your ability, how long can you help Da Qin sweep away the Xiongnu?"
"Me? When I arrive in Daqin, it's a question of whether I can survive. How can I help Daqin?"
Zhao Long Yile, "What if I am thought to be someone and thrown into prison directly?"
"Is this possible?"
"That's for sure. Look at my appearance and look like this. I don't even know Qin Xiaozhuan, and I'm penniless. What kind of job can I do?"
Zhao Long pointed at himself, from top to bottom, "Besides, the Qin Dynasty didn't have much food, and trade was still very restricted. Without food, I can only hide in the mountains. If I encounter a poisonous snake or beast, what will happen to me?"
The disease will kill everyone immediately!"
As he spoke, he spread his hands.
"Cough... cough cough..."
After hearing this, Ying Zheng coughed into his sleeves and couldn't help laughing, "It's not so miserable, is it?"
"How is it impossible? Do you think it's a movie and there's a chance it will be reused in Da Qin?"
Zhao Long laughed and said, "There are still people who dream of meeting Qin Shihuang when they reach the Qin Dynasty. It's simply a dream! There must be a limit to sexual immorality... People like this usually have some problems with their brains!"
"Ahem...yes...yes..."
After Ying Zheng heard this, he coughed and laughed again.
Next to them, Meng Tian and Li Si tilted their heads after hearing this.
Well done, brother, aren't you the one?
"Then, what would you do if you met Qin Shihuang?"
Ying Zheng smiled and asked with interest, "Will you suggest him to reform his farming system?"
"Well, if I have the right identity and can make him trust me, that would be the best."
Zhao Long said, "Then I am definitely willing to let him reform agriculture and expand agricultural production first, and then I will suggest him to go into business!"
"Business?"
After hearing Zhao Long's words, Ying Zheng's face darkened, while Meng Tian and Li Si's faces turned pale again.
Doing business?
Do you dare to advise His Majesty to do business?
This kid, I'm afraid he dislikes his stiff neck again!
Persuade His Majesty to do business?
Don’t you know how hostile His Majesty is to merchants?
The former Prime Minister Lu Buwei was a merchant, and he controlled the Qin Dynasty for many years. He was your Majesty's puppet for many years. Although the King called him his father-in-law, he deeply hated him.
After the Qin Dynasty unified the six kingdoms, His Majesty issued strict orders to further crack down on merchants and compiled heavy laws to make those merchants retreat in fear and dare not do business!
Now, you, a ignorant boy, dare to persuade His Majesty to do business?
Both of them quickly looked at Ying Zheng carefully, and sure enough, His Majesty's face turned gloomy.
"Sir, why do you want to persuade Qin Shihuang to do business?"
Ying Zheng looked at Zhao Long and spoke slowly.
"It's very simple. It naturally creates wealth!"
Zhao Long said, "Didn't Qin Shihuang want to sweep away the Xiongnu?"
"What...what is the relationship between these two?"
Ying Zheng was stunned for a moment and asked in confusion.
"Of course it does matter!"
Zhao Long said, "Where do you think Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty got the money to fight the Huns? It was not enough to rely on the savings of his ancestors. He also accumulated a lot of wealth himself! Among them, he relied on the salt and iron franchise and civilian government operations to obtain it.
of!"
"oh?"
Ying Zheng was stunned for a moment after hearing this, "Great Qin also has these..."
"Yes, Shang Yang's reform has achieved some things..."
Zhao Long said, "It's almost the same as the Yantie official camp, but it's not nearly enough!"
"Oh? Not enough?"
"yes!"
Zhao Long said, "The so-called salt and iron monopoly is a government monopoly. The tax is included in the price, so that the people cannot avoid the tax and do not feel the tax. The intention is good, but on the other hand, it is not
To use the power of the people to suppress the power of the people to create wealth! Therefore, just doing this is not enough! If Qin Shihuang wanted to quickly destroy the Xiongnu, then of course it would be better to speed up!" 81 Chinese

"Accelerate? How to accelerate?"
Ying Zheng frowned and said, "If people among the people are allowed to participate in business and there are wealthy people among the people, wouldn't it also threaten the imperial court?"
"Hey, Lao Zhao, you're wrong. Just because he has money doesn't mean he has all the resources!"
Zhao Long said, "Take the salt and iron franchise just now. The imperial court controls key resources. For this alone, do you think private millionaires can replace and threaten the imperial court?"
"Of course I can't, but..."
"This is just the simplest example..."
Zhao Long said, "To be specific, it is a truth. The core and key strategic resources, the largest amount, must be in the hands of the imperial court! As long as this is firmly guarded, the people among the people will not be able to overturn it.
Oh my god! If you think about it, if the amount of strategic resources accumulated by the people through all their efforts can easily threaten the imperial court, then why can’t the imperial court intimidate the people if they have a huge amount? Aren’t these the same thing?"
"This...makes sense..."
"So, doing business is something you can do!"
"But... sir, please forgive Li Si for talking too much!"
After hearing this, Li Si immediately said, "Sir, you said that you would encourage Qin Shihuang to engage in business. Have you forgotten that the Shang Lord's reforms were intended to emphasize agriculture and suppress merchants? Doesn't this deviate from Qin's national policy?"
"Well, if you think so, then I only have one question."
Zhao Long smiled and said, "Shang Yang's reform also violated the ancestral laws of Qin? Then why did the subsequent kings of Qin insist on it one by one?"
"this……"
"Let's explain it in Shang Yang's own words."
Zhao Long said with a smile, "That is to say that there is no way to govern the world, and the country is not following the ancient laws! The Qin Dynasty has changed from the Qin Kingdom that lives in one place to the Qin Dynasty that dominates the world. If it fully applies Shang Yang's reforms, it is no longer good.
It’s appropriate! That military merit system has become a big cancer! There are many factors that led to the demise of the Qin State, all related to this!"
Uh...huh?
What am I?
What did you say?
Upon hearing Zhao Long's words, the faces of Ying Zheng and the other three people changed.
You said celebrating the death of Qin was actually related to Shang Yang’s reforms?
