Ying Zheng was very satisfied with Zhao Shu's attitude. In front of 20,000,000 yuan, Zhao Shu was not lost and still understood the seriousness of the matter.
This is the most valuable thing!
At this time, Zhao Shu did not know what Ying Zheng was thinking. If he knew, he would definitely sneer at him.
The reason why he was not lost was because all he saw was a number, not a pile of money.
After all, if you haven’t seen twenty million dollars and haven’t experienced that kind of impact, you will naturally let go easily. How can you get lost when faced with a number.
When faced with a bunch of beauties, one may become addicted to them, but when faced with a blank piece of paper with a bunch of beauties written on them, how can one become addicted to them?
It's all the same.
Some things can only be understood with your own eyes.
Qin Wangzheng took a sip of herbal tea, and then said to Zhao Shu and Li Si: "You two have also seen the terrifying energy hidden by these merchants."
"If Zhao Shu hadn't made this mistake by mistake, I wouldn't have known that merchants in this world could actually get such amazing money and food."
Speaking of this, Qin Wangzheng sighed and said: "Before, I always thought that the reason why Marquis Wenxin was so powerful was because he was the prime minister of the Qin Dynasty."
"But we have always ignored the energy of the best businessman in the world."
.......
Seeing that Qin Wangzheng mentioned Lu Buwei, Zhao Shu immediately pretended to be dead. He suffered too much loss in Zhangtai Palace.
Except for his first visit, almost every time he came to Zhangtai Palace, he was the worst.
Zhao Shu knew how complicated the feud between Qin Wangzheng and Lu Buwei was, and he didn't want to get into trouble again.
At this moment, Zhao Shu retreated and put the pressure on Li Si.
Glancing at Zhao Shu, Li Si nodded slightly. At this moment, Zhao Shu retracted, which meant that Zhao Shu really listened.
Li Si handed over his hand to the King of Qin and said: "Your Majesty, our country in Great Qin has always been emphasizing the roots and suppressing the weak, and we don't pay much attention to merchants."
"And the merchants only collect taxes on salt, iron, wine, and meat. But most merchants don't collect taxes at all!"
"I didn't know it in the past, but today I see that the profits made by these merchants in a year cannot be underestimated."
.......
Seeing Qin Wangzheng discussing this matter with Li Si, Zhao Shu smiled meaningfully. He remembered clearly that during the Qin Dynasty, "market rent" was levied, and it was a trade tax imposed on merchants.
If the commercial tax is fully rolled out, it will greatly increase the national power of Qin and further stimulate the development and prosperity of commerce and agriculture.
Let various industries within Daqin form a cycle.
Zhao Shu, who was caught up in his own imagination, did not notice that the conversation between Qin Wangzheng and Li Si had stopped, and both of them turned their attention to him.
"Zhao Shu, what are you laughing at?" Qin Wangzheng joked, "What other way have you thought of to collect money and food?"
"Your Majesty, I didn't expect this." Zhao Shu smiled bitterly and said to King Qin, "I just longed for the prosperous and prosperous era of Great Qin in the future..."
No matter what Qin Wangzheng said, Zhao Shu was prepared in his heart, that is, he would not say anything no matter what.
Put all the troubles on Li Si.
.......
Finally, Li Si and Zhao Shu left Zhangtai Palace together. Half an hour passed, which seemed like two hours had passed.
In the car, Li Si looked at the silent Zhao Shu, chuckled, and said: "Are you complaining that I am not firm in my stance and force you to retreat?"
"Teacher, what are you talking about?"
Zhao Shu smiled, shook his head, and said: "Shu is not a fool, so he can clearly see that the king is moved."
"The teacher is just going with the flow!"
"Even if the teacher doesn't do this, if the king doesn't nod in Zhangtai Palace this morning, we won't be able to take away a single son."
Hahaha......
Li Si smiled with satisfaction, feeling very pleased that Zhao Shu was so smart: "It's good if you can figure it out. Things like money and food are almost enough."
"For you and me, if there is too much, it is not a beautiful thing."
"The king is ambitious in the Central Plains. He wants to do something unprecedented. Moreover, the king is broad-minded and can tolerate arrogant soldiers and powerful generals."
Li Si sighed with emotion and looked at Zhao Shu for explanation: "So if we give the money and food to the king, our position will be more stable."
"In this world, power is the most important, and merchants will never achieve great things."
"The reason why Marquis Wenxin suppressed the Qin Dynasty for twenty years was because he was the prime minister of the Qin Dynasty, not a merchant."
What Li Si said was correct, and Zhao Shu also thought so about this matter.
The reason why Lu Buwei, Marquis of Wenxin, controlled the Qin Dynasty and suppressed all civil and military officials, and was named Zhongfu, was because he was the Prime Minister of the Qin Dynasty.
........
"I would like to learn the art!"
Zhao Shu was very grateful for Li Si's teachings. Even these truths could be understood by himself.
Zhao Shu could actually feel the change in Li Si's attitude towards him.
At first, he was just optimistic about him, but when he called Teacher Li Si and Li Si nodded in agreement, Li Si cared about him like a nephew.
This means that Li Si regards him as one of his own. In this world, the person who inherits the mantle is more important than his son.
Master of Heaven and Earth!
Parents and teachers stand side by side.
"Teacher, the decision you made is correct. Only by following the king's footsteps can we gain a firm foothold in Daqin."
At this moment, Zhao Shu also spoke and said: "The king only took away the income from the agency, but the amount of soap's income is not small."
"Even if it is not as good as the income of an agent, it is still an amount of money that is unimaginable to ordinary people."
"Um."
Li Si nodded: "It seems that I am one-sided. There is a reason why the merchant way exists."
"You showed the king, and also me, the terrifying power of merchants. In Great Qin, no force can escape the control of the imperial court."
"So, this force needs supervision. Do you have any good ideas?"
This is Li Si.
The vision is extremely amazing.
Just from what Zhao Shu and Ying Zheng said in Zhangtai Palace, they realized that the merchant was a ferocious beast that had not yet awakened.
Before it awakens, it must be shackles and completely controlled by the Qin court.
Hearing this, Zhao Shu's face paused slightly, and he pondered for a while, then turned to Li Si and said, "Teacher, it's too early now."
"The current Great Qin is committed to completing the great cause of annexing the six kingdoms. There is no need to create extraneous matters. Waiting for the king to annex the six kingdoms, free up his hands to integrate merchants."
"After all, the six countries were unified under Qin. All industries need to be reorganized, and the entire Central Plains needs to be cleaned up."
"Shu still believes that stability is the priority at the moment. Only when the court is stable can the elites of the Qin Dynasty be able to dominate."
