Daqin: Qin Shihuang Visited The Stalls At the Start
Chapter 46: Emphasizing Agriculture And Suppressing Commerce Is Outdated
wrong?
Everyone looked at each other.
There was a little wonder in his eyes.
At the same time, he also secretly admires Su Yu's courage.
This bluntly denies the core idea of Shang Yang's reform.
This is an ordinary person, and he has already been in a different place.
Looking at Lao Zhao again, he was just frowning and thinking about this, but he didn't seem to be angry.
He asked suspiciously: "This emphasis on agriculture and suppressing commerce was one of the main reasons why the Pre-Qin Dynasty was able to catch up."
"And now, Su Yu, you say it's wrong."
"Why is that?"
Lao Zhao is a person who can think and listen to persuasion.
In addition, he trusts Su Yu, the "people of immortality".
In his opinion.
Since Su Yu would say this, there must be a reason for him.
Taking a sip of the rice wine in the bowl, and throwing two peanuts into his mouth, Su Yu said calmly:
"Emphasizing agriculture and suppressing commerce, the wrong thing is when it's used at the wrong time."
"Oh?"
Everyone stopped the dishes and prepared to study and listen to Su Yu's next words.
"This strategy of emphasizing agriculture and suppressing commerce was a very wise move in the pre-Qin period.
At that time, the national strength of the pre-Qin Dynasty was backward, the land was barren, and the treasury was empty.
In addition, the surrounding countries are staring at each other, and it is precarious.
Naturally, a relatively tough policy and the fastest effective method are needed, giving priority to ensuring the strength of the country.
Emphasizing agriculture and suppressing commerce has naturally become the best choice. "
Lao Zhao nodded slightly.
Exactly as Su Yu said.
At that time, the emphasis on agriculture and the suppression of commerce was very effective.
Under the strict laws, the people of Qin country abandoned business and joined agriculture.
As a result, the treasury of Qin State was rapidly filled at that time, and the army became stronger and stronger.
But Su Yu said that the strategy of emphasizing agriculture and suppressing business was at the wrong time.
Could it be that today's Daqin is no longer suitable for this policy?
Su Yu gave the answer:
"Today's Great Qin has swept across the six kingdoms and ruled as one.
The surrounding area can be considered a threat, only the Xiongnu and Baiyue.
But it didn't have much impact on my Daqin.
In the current Daqin, what needs to be improved is the cohesion of the country and the happiness of the people.
The strategy of emphasizing agriculture and suppressing commerce is naturally no longer suitable for the current situation. "
Lao Zhao nodded understandingly.
Indeed, as Su Yu said, the cohesion of the country and the happiness of the people are what he urgently wants to change.
In the current situation, the remnants of the Six Nations are rampant, and the poor people who do not know the truth are used as spearmen.
It made the interior of Daqin full of smog.
"Let me ask a question first, people, how can we live well?" Su Yu asked rhetorically.
Wang Ben took a sip of wine and drank loudly, "I know this old man, if he lives a good life, he naturally has to have half a tael in his pocket and a bowl of millet."
Su Yu nodded: "Yes, people can live well if they have money, but where does the money come from?"
"This……"
Everyone, look at me, and I look at you.
In the end, it was Lao Zhao who said, "If the people want to be rich, they have to sell the harvest."
"Then is there a harvest to sell now?"
"hiss……"
Lao Zhao stopped talking.
He couldn't speak.
Today, there are 700,000 prisoners in Daqin building the Lishan Emperor's Mausoleum.
Millions of soldiers built the Great Wall.
Millions of people build gallops,
There are more than one million soldiers, who really guard the border gates and Daqin counties.
In addition, there are nearly four million people who are not engaged in farming.
These are all young men!
Coupled with the years of war, the soldiers of the original countries were killed and injured countless times.
It has also led to the situation that there are more women than men in Daqin today.
The pressure of farming falls on the shoulders of the elderly and the weak.
Under such circumstances, it is difficult for the common people to even pay taxes, so how can there be surplus grain to sell?
"No, right? Some can't even pay taxes."
Su Yu didn't care about Lao Zhao's face at all.
Directly tore off the fig leaf.
Meng Yi rubbed his beard and asked in a deep voice, "Su Yu, when you mention this, is there a solution?"
Hearing Meng Yi's words, Su Yu's mouth couldn't help but raise a smile.
"There is a solution, of course!"
"Isn't it possible... is to make a fuss about the businessman?" Lao Zhao's eyes lit up, and there were some ideas in his mind.
"Smart, just write articles from the merchants!"
Su Yu drank the rice wine in the bowl in one gulp.
