Zhao Wen did not intend to accept all of the First Emperor's teachings.
One is a conceptual issue. The First Emperor was afraid of poverty, but he now only had tens of millions of kilograms of silver in his hands, and he could not spend it all in a short time no matter how much he spent.
The other is that as a prince, you still want to inherit the throne. If you are always submissive, the First Emperor's eyes will be on you, so you must have your own opinions.
Sure enough, after Zhao Wen finished speaking, the First Emperor didn't care. Instead, he smiled softly and asked: "If you take over the throne, how will you run this country?"
"The books have the same text, the carriages have the same track, the quantities are the same, the actions are the same, and the land reclamation order must be implemented all the time. The other is that I intend to simplify the Qin characters, make them easier to write, and set a standard pronunciation for each character.
!”
"I hope that in the future, the people of my country, Qin, will speak with different accents no matter where they are, instead of being like now, where the accents are completely different even if they are hundreds of miles apart!"
Zhao Wenke remembered that now when the First Emperor goes to court, he still needs an interpreter. After all, the languages of the seven countries are different, and it is not easy to understand them all.
"After the various places are stabilized, we will move wealthy households from various places to Guanzhong. One is to enrich Guanzhong, and the other is that these people have been in the place for too long and have already operated in an airtight manner. If they do not leave, they will inevitably affect the government's governance!"
"In addition, I have sent people outside the Great Wall to search for water sources for the Xiongnu. Grasslands are inhabited by water and grass, and water sources are a top priority. People and cattle and sheep can run away, but water sources cannot be moved away. As long as they are clear
With the water source on the grassland, we can find opportunities to carry out precise attacks on the Xiongnu!"
"Then we won't be worried about the Huns coming to the Central Plains to harvest grass and valleys, but the Huns will be worried about whether we will come to the grasslands and steal their cattle, sheep and slaves!"
Seeing the First Emperor nodding while listening, Zhao Wen knew in his heart that this was probably his last test before becoming emperor, and he continued: "The other thing is that our Qin Dynasty is now vast and sparsely populated, and I will implement the strategy of elite troops in order to
Arm the most elite warriors with the best equipment, and release the rest to breed!"
In the past, the population was sparse, and the most important reason was that the output of the land was too little, but now the seeds Zhao Wen has received have higher yields, especially for some vegetables, with yields per mu often reaching tens of thousands of kilograms.
With the support of these seeds, Daqin now has the foundation to significantly increase its population.
"If the pumpkins you sent can really produce tens of thousands of kilograms per mu, it can increase the population. Even if the land is not enough, you can continue to expand to the surrounding areas. But if you want to implement the strategy of elite troops, you must pay attention to Da Qin's generals!"
"All sergeants are controlled by the general. The fewer the number of soldiers, the greater the power the general has in the court!"
Speaking of this, the First Emperor also sighed softly and said: "Our Great Qin Dynasty has been pursuing the strategy of farming and war since Shangjun's reform. Over hundreds of years, the emperor's power has been strengthened to the limit, but it has also raised a large number of members of the whole clan.
All generals in the army!"
"Now that the world is unified and there is no war, our Great Qin army must have military merit to be promoted. If the generals are not useful, it will definitely disrupt the inheritance of many families. These people will definitely be dissatisfied with Great Qin!"
"I am planning to abolish the military merit conferment system in the future!"
When King Shang was reforming, the military merit conferment system was definitely the best way, but now that the world is unified, continuing to keep this system is definitely a big disaster.
"How are you going to abolish the military honors awarding system!"
The First Emperor looked at Zhao Wen with a cold look in his eyes. The military merit conferment system involves all the people of Qin. Now most of the army of Qin is Qin people. If there is a problem with this system, I am afraid that the world will be in chaos immediately.
"The people of my country, Qin, have been given titles since birth. Now that the world is unified, all the people are Qin people. Naturally, they should be treated equally and the people of the old lands of the Six Kingdoms should be given titles!",
This method was originally used in the Han Dynasty, and the effect was excellent, so Zhao Wen said with full confidence: "Whether it is a happy event for the country or a happy event for the royal family, we can reward the people of the world with titles!"
"Even when money and food are scarce, people are allowed to exchange money and food for titles!"
"To implement the policy of elite troops, I will inevitably recruit troops from all over the world, and will even deliberately reduce the number of Qin people in the army. Combining the two, it will not take long for the military merit award system to collapse!"
The most important point in implementing the military merit conferment system is that rewards and punishments are clear, but rewards and punishments are in the hands of the emperor, so it is naturally easier to destroy them.
"My son has established county schools and township schools in Jiujiang County, and will expand to all counties in Daqin in the future. In the future, the number of scholars in Daqin will inevitably increase dramatically. At that time, I will also establish a military academy and recruit elites from among the scholars to teach the art of war.
By then, not to mention the military merit conferment system, even the generals will disappear!"
The biggest reason for the formation of generals is that ordinary people do not have the opportunity and conditions to learn the art of war and dragon-slaying skills. However, when a large number of art of war books are released in military academies, a large number of geniuses will inevitably emerge among ordinary people.
Where is the environment for generals to survive?
"Have you ever thought about your own safety?" Ying Zheng said with a cold tone. If this continues, it is inevitable that the door will fall, but these people will definitely struggle to the death.
He didn't need to think about it to know that the method chosen by these people must be to kill the emperor and establish a new emperor to end these policies. However, they still have such strength even in decline. By then, the Emperor of Qin may not even be as good as Zhou Jun.
Zhao Wen chuckled. How could he not think of what methods these people would use? There were many such things in history.
Gently raised his hand to grab it, and a jade Ruyi in the distance had flown into Zhao Wen's hand. He pinched it gently, and the jade powder fell down. Looking at the first emperor, Zhao Wen smiled: "My ministers are invincible in martial arts, and there are also a group of powerful ones.
Each of the chamberlains can fight one against a hundred!"
His strong martial arts skills were the biggest reason why Zhao Wen dared to implement so many policies at once.
If there was someone else with less strength, he might not even be as good as Yang Guang. Emperor Zhengde was his best role model!
The other is that the physical weakness of the First Emperor is just a symptom after all, and will definitely recover in the future. Even if it is to avoid trouble, he must let the First Emperor know the power he currently controls.
He would never underestimate the desire to control power of the first emperor in history to unify the world.
He didn't want to happen to him in the future when the First Emperor recovered and brought a group of veterans to kill him and force him into the palace, so letting the First Emperor know the strength in his hands in advance was the best way!
