When a widow with the same title came to Xianyang, the first thing she wanted to do was to meet the King of Qin and pay homage to Marquis Wen Xin. Although she could not find out the news in Zhangtai Palace, the widow Qing did not know whether it was intentional or unintentional.
It spread out.
Among the gifts that I brought with me when I came to see the King of Qin, there were three large boxes of bamboo slips with solitary books, and some classics printed on paper by myself. I praised papermaking and the wonders of printing, but it is useless to say more about its inner meaning.
Zhou Qing does not seem to have much involvement with Widow Qing. If we talk about the interests, the other party is cultivating cinnabar, mercury, and elixirs, and it does not conflict with him.
However, the bustling world is all for profit, and the world is bustling for gain. Widow Qing spread the word about this matter in Zhangtai Palace and Xianyang City for no reason, even if it is not for herself, it is for others.
As for who they are? It’s not hard to guess!
Facing Qin Wangzheng's gaze, Zhou Qing nodded, and did not avoid the topic, but spoke softly. Moreover, this topic would be mentioned sooner or later, and he had already planned for it.
"Yes, Widow Qing was talking about papermaking in Zhangtai Palace yesterday, and how wonderful printing is. She also mentioned that it would be extremely convenient if it could be used in government documents."
"Just like "Lu's Spring and Autumn Annals", there are hundreds of thousands of words. If it is branded on bamboo slips, it can be obtained by ten carts. If it is imprinted on paper classics, it is only one copy and can be held in one hand, which is very convenient."
"Moreover, a classic book is worth a hundred gold, and the benefits in it are abundant, even more than that of cinnabar. A widow is pure and a man of few words, if you get it, you can enrich the treasury and the foundation of the Qin Dynasty!"
Papermaking and printing are not secrets to Ying Zheng. Heibingtai sent a lot of news, including the bookstores opened in various countries, which sell paper classics.
The benefits are huge.
Especially some time ago, Wen Xinhou asked Master Xuanqing to imprint "Lu's Spring and Autumn Annals". Every word is imprinted, and it is impossible to imprint it without hundreds of thousands of gold or millions of gold. This is even more obvious.
What Widow Qing said is not unreasonable. It is extremely convenient to apply it to government documents. In the past, heavy bamboo slips were needed to write government orders, but now a piece of paper is enough, and the government comprador can also benefit from it.
However, the art of papermaking and printing belongs to the Taoist Tianzong, and Master Xuanqing has made great contributions to himself. I have never thought much about this matter. Today, I conferred the title of Shaobao to the master. Although the position is empty, it is also the position of the Qin court.
So ask about it.
"Hahaha, what Widow Qing said is true. In fact, these two things are what I wanted to give to the king in the future. I didn't expect that they would be remembered by others now. Although it is a bit early, it is okay."
"The great king just talked about the beauty of papermaking and printing. Do you know of other wonderful things?"
Needless to say, the subtleties and benefits of papermaking and printing techniques. As the master, Zhou Qing definitely understands it better than Widow Qing. He smiled brightly, stepped on the earth, and looked at the Lishan Mountain in the distance, even though it was already scorching sun.
At the front, farmers are still working among them.
Li Xin led the heavily armored soldiers to guard the surrounding area. Ge Nie also stood quietly on one side with a sharp weapon in hand, spreading his spiritual awareness to prevent uninvited guests. Although this possibility is very small, as long as it exists, everything is necessary.
"Other benefits?"
"I want to hear the details!"
He didn't sit upright on the flat stone pier for too long, thinking about Zhou Qing's words. Ying Zheng raised his eyebrows and stood up leisurely. His eyes flashed a little. He wanted to give the master's words to himself, but this gift was not enough.
light.
Moreover, it sounds like the papermaking and printing techniques are not as simple as what I have seen. However, looking at it now, apart from making it faster to process government orders and making it easier to read classics, it has no other use.
As the words fell, Feng Quji and Wang Wan, who were not far away, seemed to have heard about it. They looked at each other. They also knew the art of papermaking and printing, but the price was too expensive.
"With the current national strength of the Qin Dynasty, it is not difficult to control the princes. This is something that the king understands even if he thinks about it!"
Over the past hundred years, the Qin Dynasty slaughtered more than a million soldiers from various countries in Shandong. The countries were extremely weak, and several joint attacks on Qin failed to succeed. This has already shown the problem, and the territory of Qin State also spread from the land of Longxi to the east.
The land of Hexi, the land of Hedong, the land of Shangdang, the land of Taiyuan, the land of Nanyang, the land of central Guizhou..., sitting on the fertile soil of Guanzhong, the construction of Zhengguo Canal is about to be completed, internal troubles have been eliminated, and all hidden dangers no longer exist
.
This is exactly what the Confucian Meng Ke said: the right time, the right location, and the right people. In this way, it will be easy for Qin to be invincible.
"Yes, among the Three Jins, only the State of Zhao can still fight with our Great Qin. The land of Southern Chu is very large, and it can also fight with our Great Qin. The other Warring States are not worthy of fear."
"Is this matter related to the papermaking and printing techniques that the master mentioned?"
As the king of the Qin Dynasty, he has had a thorough understanding of the situation of other countries in the past ten years. He understands the direction of the next Xia better than Zhou Qing. The three Jin countries, the most powerful since the Spring and Autumn Period, have weakened. The Yan and Qi countries have been more powerful decades ago.
The country was almost destroyed. Although Chu was strong, Qin had the confidence to conquer it.
"The way of governing a country is like the practice of martial arts. Among the martial arts practices of Guigu Zongheng, Mr. Gai Nie passed down the Hundred-step Flying Sword. This peerless sword technique gathers the essence, energy and spirit into one, and displays it with unparalleled power."
"But the consumption of one's own body is very large. With Mr. Gai Nie's current strength, he cannot perform the same peak blow in a short time. However, if Mr. Gai Nie can use the Hundred-Step Flying Sword at will, he will be a
A rather formidable swordsman."
"The same is true for the Qin Dynasty. It fought against other countries and gathered the national power of the whole country. This strike was like a flying sword with a hundred steps, defeating all opponents. This strike was also called the strongest national power of the Qin Dynasty in a hundred years. When all the countries were unified, the Qin State seemed to be more powerful.
Be powerful, have a broader territory, and rule all peoples."
"Actually, we are also in a very dangerous situation. The people of the countries are in chaos, the regions are in chaos, and hundreds of schools are in chaos. At this time, it is extremely difficult for the Qin State to consolidate its national power and launch a peerless attack!"
The words were spoken slowly and without concealment. Feng Quji and others beside him also heard the words. Not far away, Gai Nie's spiritual sense spread and he also felt it. He just mentioned the Hundred Steps Flying Sword and looked back.
Take a look for yourself.
Today, Da Qin is a martial arts practitioner, with a perfect body of spirit, energy, and spirit. He practices peerless mystical skills and is invincible. After defeating all his opponents, he has entered a new realm.
A brand-new realm requires the support of a new Xuan Gong. If there is no good Xuan Gong support and you continue to operate with the original Xuan Gong, you are likely to have problems with the operation of your meridians. If you are weak, you will have difficulty, and if you are strong, your cultivation will not survive.
"It's easy to make the world easy, but it's hard to govern the world!"
"In the past hundred years, although the territory of the Qin State has expanded several times, its core area is still in the Guanzhong area. If, as the master said, it would be difficult for the Qin Dynasty to unify all the Xia, it would indeed be difficult to control the real people."
"On the trip to Xinzheng, I wanted to invite Han Fei to join the Qin Dynasty to use his talent and practice the world's methods to solve this problem. Now, what the master said is even more far-reaching. Please ask Ying Zheng!"
This problem has also been floating in my mind for a long time, and it is not just my own problem. It has been the same problem for three generations. The Xia Dynasty, Shang Dynasty, and Zhou Dynasty followed the patriarchal policy and established feudal states to protect the royal family.
Thousands of years later, it has been proven that that decision was wrong and unworkable. The Qin Dynasty used the method of merchant kings. Over the past hundred years, the country's power has been increasing day by day. However, the sword in the hand is still the sword of the princes, not the sword of the emperor.
Han Fei was a talented person. In his various articles, Qin Wangzheng saw a complete series of governance contexts, ruling the world by law, practicing Confucianism and Taoism, and the inner saint and the outer king were nothing more than this.
Although the structure is clear, it is extremely difficult to implement because the other countries are not Qin. Qin is already the paradise of Legalism, but the other countries are not. If you want to implement the laws of the world, it is tantamount to turning all countries into the paradise of Legalism.
.
How difficult it is in today’s world where hundreds of schools of thought exist!
After hearing Zhou Qing's words, Qin Wangzheng instinctively felt that the other party should have a good strategy waiting for him. If the master's strategy could really solve this problem, then its contribution would be no less than that of Shang Jun!
