Ying Jingyu smiled and said: "Father, don't worry, Great Qin will always be on a prosperous road in the future."
"If agriculture is still the main focus as in the past, the borrowing strategy will indeed be a strategy for the poor Qin. But if it is based on scientific methods and commercial circulation is the main focus, then even without borrowing money from the rich, the future treasury of our Qin Dynasty will be a hundred times
A thousand times better than now.”
"The wealth of the world is constantly growing, and the national treasury is increasing sharply every year. Why worry about the little interest from merchants? And our court does not need to borrow the wealth of the rich every year. It can borrow money from all the people in the world in a fixed amount according to the shortage of major matters. This can be called
It’s called ‘national debt’.”
King Qin Ying Ziying finally understood what Jing Yu said about borrowing money.
He nodded, seemingly lacking confidence: "If in the future Great Qin is really as Yu'er said, it can increase its national treasury every year, it will be an excellent way to raise the world's wealth. But..."
"Just what? What is Father worried about?"
"If our Qin Dynasty were strong and prosperous in the past, this method would be feasible. But now our pass is in turmoil, and it may be destroyed by the six kingdoms of Guandong at any time. If the wealthy businessmen are not optimistic about our Qin, how can we make them willing to spend their money?"
"Father, you can first convene the main wealthy businessmen in Xianyang to discuss, and place a few people from our court among them. When the leader joins the game, the other wealthy businessmen will follow and invest in the court when they hesitate. Then summon Guanzhong and make a plan.
The method is called 'herding effect'."
"Oh? What is the herd effect?"
Ying Jingyu couldn't help but smile and said: "Father, you know that sheep flocks are essentially a very scattered group. They usually rush left and right blindly, but once the leader sheep starts running, the other sheep will rush away without thinking.
So the manager of the flock only needs to control the leading sheep, and the other sheep will naturally follow."
After hearing such a vivid explanation, King Qin immediately understood the mystery and wished he could give his son a thumbs up on the spot.
King Qin laughed and said: "Of course I have heard of such a wonderful method. I didn't expect Yu'er to understand and use it better."
Ying Jingyu said: "Father, if the methods of investment and borrowing are used properly, not only can the efficiency of various state affairs and engineering construction be greatly improved, but also the people can be freed from the heavy agriculture to build the Qin Dynasty and contribute
Labor can also increase wealth. When the people are rich, the country is strong, and everyone wants to be rich and is willing to work hard to create value."
"Lending money to merchants, the court later returned it with interest. The reputation of the court increased day by day. Scholars, farmers, workers, and merchants all trusted the court. The court loved and protected all the people. How could such a great Qin Dynasty fall?"
After hearing this, King Qin finally understood Ying Jingyu’s grand plan.
Before, I always had only a half-understanding, and every item was far beyond the imagination of people of this era. But after Jingyu’s repeated explanations and consolations, King Qin was finally able to imagine some shadows of that blueprint.
After thinking about it, King Qin put aside his worries about the future in recent days, stepped forward and patted Jing Yu on the shoulder, smiling happily: "Yu'er, having you in our Qin Dynasty is like a god manifesting. As a father, I no longer have any doubts about hindering you.
Strategy."
"Let it go, Yu'er, your words and policies are unheard of by everyone including me. The lonely king can only fully support you from behind... Ying Jingyu listens to the order!"
Jingyu knelt down on one knee and cupped his hands and said, "My son is here!"
"I have ordered Great Qin Taiwei Ying Jingyu to be fully responsible for the establishment of the Third Division! With Wang Ling, he is responsible for the investment of the Third Division by businessmen in Guanzhong, and is responsible for lending money to the rich in Guanzhong and other major state affairs!"
"Here, father! I accept your orders!"
.......
The 23rd day of the reign of Ziying, the third emperor of Qin Dynasty
Ying Jingyu got up early in the morning at dawn. Because he was too sleepy after going back last night, and most of the things had been discussed with King Qin, he fell into a deep sleep as soon as he fell into bed.
The next thing is to wait for the news
After Jingyu had breakfast, he began daily training in the palace. After completing basic training until noon,
Tingwei Feng Tuo came to report that he had found someone from the Mohist family. But the Mohists still didn't know what the imperial court meant... So after Feng Tuo issued a summons in Xianyang City yesterday, several leaders of the Mohist family went to Tingwei this morning.
At home
Then Tingwei Feng Tuo did not hesitate. While bringing people from the Mo family into the palace to meet the king, he also sent someone to inform Ying Jingyu.
Ying Jingyu was overjoyed after hearing this. He quickly took a shower, washed away the smelly sweat, changed into clean clothes, and hurriedly walked towards the 'Chengming Hall'
Because it was not lunch time yet, King Qin was still handling government affairs in the Chengming Hall.
Unexpectedly, as soon as Ying Jingyu arrived at the gate of Chengming Palace, he heard a few people talking in the palace.
Ying Jingyu walked into the hall without hesitation. At this time, standing in the hall were not only Tingwei Feng Tuo and King Qin Ying Ziying.
There were ten young eunuchs standing near the King of Qin. Maybe the King of Qin was afraid that these strange Mohists, or pretended Mohist thieves, would not be able to assassinate the King of Qin.
Although the King of Qin had a pleasant conversation with the leader of the Mohist family in Xianyang City, he did not get too close to him. He always sat on the main throne and did not end up being too polite to the Mohist people. This must be because of his inner feelings towards the Mohist family.
People are quite prejudiced, right?
Yes, the Mohists have always been a disgusting existence for the courts of every country. Because they have no initiative, they may resist aggression for a certain country today, but they may target themselves for other countries tomorrow.
The reputation is not very good, and all the rulers may not like it very much.
Ying Jingyu walked slowly to Feng Tuo and saw two men in black robes standing proudly in the hall. Although they were facing the King of Qin, there seemed to be no trace of restraint or fear on their faces.
It means, quite like everyone's style
Jingyu said: "Are these two giants of the Mohist family in Xianyang? I am the eldest son of the Great Qin Dynasty, Ying Jingyu. Today I meet a member of the Mohist family. It is indeed extraordinary!"
The two leaders of the Mohist clan turned around and squinted at the people who came. Rumors in Xianyang City have been abuzz in the past few days. It seems that there is another rising star in Da Qin.
I didn't expect to see such a young and weak person today.
A Mohist leader who looked to be in his 30s stepped forward, cupped his hands and said, "Greetings, Sir, I am Mo Cheng, the giant of the Mohist branch in Xianyang, and this is my senior brother Mo Li."
"I got to see the young master today. He is indeed very brave."
Ying Jingyu laughed, waved his hands and said: "The giants of Xianyang, Mo Cheng, Mo Li... you two don't have to be so polite. I'm looking for the Mo family for something important."
Mo Cheng said in surprise: "According to the news from our branch of the Mohist branch in Guandong, the six kingdoms of Guandong will attack Guanzhong in the near future, and people will inevitably be devastated by that time. Our Mohist family in Guanzhong originally wanted to meet with the King of Qin and help the Qin army, but who knew that the king
Ordering the meeting with the Mo family so quickly. Haha, it’s really God’s will.”
As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked. But if you think about it carefully, it is not surprising. The Mo family loves to do things to help the weak.
Ying Jingyu didn't talk too much. With the power of the Mo family, Qin Jun really didn't like it.
After Jian Jian and Mo Cheng described the way of science and the grand plan for the future of the world, they also praised the Mo family's ability to manufacture machine weapons.
After hearing this, Mo Cheng and the two frowned more and more deeply. They thought that the imperial court would rely on the power of the Mo family to deal with the Six Kingdoms of Guandong, but they didn't know that Young Master Yu had other plans.
After Ying Jingyu finished speaking, Mo Cheng said: "What the young master said is quite novel. If it were placed during the Seven Kingdoms' struggle for hegemony decades ago, it would be considered a strange school of thought."
After hearing this, Ying Jingyu felt that something didn't quite click with him. This was obviously what Gu Zuoyi meant.
He also said unceremoniously: "I think you two don't quite understand what I mean. That's it, I, Da Qin, want to establish a 'Science Department'. Science is like the way of heaven, endless. Mohism and Science are very compatible, so I want to invite you."
The Mohists came to establish the 'Science Department'"
Mo Chengdao: "This matter is of great importance, and we need to report to the headquarters boss for discussion. Please forgive me, sir."
After saying this, everyone including King Qin and Feng Tuo looked unhappy. They were invited with great kindness, but they didn’t expect that the Mo family was so xenophobic and arrogant.
But Ying Jingyu didn't care too much and said: "Okay, but the matter is urgent and I want to finalize the matter as soon as possible. If the 'Science Department' is established, there will be several benefits. The two countries can understand it."
"Young master, I just said there will be no interviews!"
Ying Jingyu cleared his throat and walked two steps towards Mo Cheng and the two of them with his hands behind his back: "The Mohist family has always preached 'love without aggression', right?"
The two nodded inexplicably. How does this relate to the 'science' we are talking about today?
"Then let me say, if the 'Science Department' develops, not only can the whole world be free from wars for a long time and the people be prosperous, but also by then the world will be peaceful, and your Mohist theory may also become the mainstream and occupy a place in the world.
