Besides, Wang Zhiyin already had a bad reputation, so if the news got out, it's not certain how others would arrange it.

-

at noon the next day.

Chen Qing and Fu Su sat opposite each other, and while Zhuo Tianlu and Cheng Ji were not here, they focused on discussing state affairs.

"Great Qin supported millions of troops to frighten the barbarians."

"Bullshit merchants like Zhuo and Cheng, taking advantage of being in the territory of Daqin and being protected by the government, arbitrarily raised the price of ironware and sold it to non-Chinese people, seeking huge profits."

"This is obviously taking advantage of the royal family and the imperial court."

"This matter should be decided early and cannot be ignored."

Chen Qing said with a straight face.

Fusu nodded solemnly: "Unexpectedly, the situation in Shu is like this. If Mr. hadn't discovered it early, I don't know how long the Zhuo and Cheng families will continue to do evil. Tomorrow, I will tell my father to eradicate these villains as soon as possible." .”

"Your Highness, why go to war."

Chen Qing persuaded in time: "Even if Zhuo and Cheng are eradicated, as long as there is a market and huge profits, there will still be people rushing in and continuing to sell ironware."

"We can't just treat the symptoms, not the root cause."

Fusu couldn't help but asked curiously: "I don't know what is the solution to the root cause that Mr. said?"

Chen Qing chuckled: "No one in the world seems to realize that the current Great Qin is in full swing. It not only has military hegemony, but also has technological hegemony."

"Military supremacy allows us to fight whoever we want."

"Technological supremacy... well used, even sharper than swords."

Fu Su was very interested: "Sir, tell me in detail."

Earlier, Chen Qing was worried that he would mention Wang Zhiyin's matter.

After all, she is Fusu's sister-in-law, so as her brother-in-law, she has to support her.

Unexpectedly, he never mentioned it.

Chen Qing was immediately relieved.

Sure enough, he is an iron buddy!

It seems that the wild girl's beating was for nothing.

"Sir, tell me quickly."

Fusu hurriedly urged.

"Oh, technological hegemony is reflected in every aspect..."

-

Marquis of Wucheng.

Wang Zhiyin paced anxiously in the boudoir.

"Did the Prince's Mansion send someone to send a message?"

She scolded the maid impatiently.

"Miss, no."

The maids in the mansion knew her temperament well, and lowered their heads cautiously when speaking.

"Humph!"

"No reason!"

"Sister and brother-in-law actually lied to me!"

"Could it be that this beating is in vain?!"

The concubine consort comforted her yesterday and would try to get Chen Qing to apologize to her.

At that time, Wang Zhiyin felt that her sister's attitude was a bit perfunctory.

Today I was waiting at home, but no one came, and I became very angry.

"Come on!"

"Give me some generals from the Qi family and the Ding family, and call out all who can fight."

"I'll ask for an explanation myself!"

Wang Zhiyin shouted angrily.

"Be quiet, don't let my father know."

She still didn't forget to sternly exhort.

Chapter 139 Helping You Realize Industrial Transformation

"The people of Great Qin pay taxes, serve corvee, and regard your father as king."

"As a king, being supported by the people, he naturally has the responsibility to protect the land and open the borders, and protect the people."

"Can transform the barbarians, what's the benefit to our Great Qin?"

"I haven't seen them pay a cent of the tax, I haven't seen them serve a day in the corvee, and they don't obey the king. Like the Huns, they go south to plunder every year. How can they be regarded as the same law!"

Chen Qing said impassionedly.

Fu Su nodded: "Sir, what you said is reasonable, but what does it have to do with the 'technological hegemony' you mentioned?"

Chen Qing smiled: "Isn't that right now!"

"Like you and I work hard every day, want to make more and cheaper iron tools, so that the people can use them for farming and living needs."

"I am the official of the imperial court, and you are the Prince of Qin. Both of them are supported by the people. It is right to do something for them."

"But can the ironware we have worked so hard to sell to foreigners at a low price?"

Fu Su pondered for a moment, then slowly shook his head: "Of course it can't be done. That's why I want to play the role of Emperor Ming and eradicate Zhuo and Cheng."

"Your Highness."

Chen Qing couldn't help but secretly sighed.

Fusu is upright, a little pedantic, and has no tolerance for sand in his eyes.

How can this be done!

"Eliminate the Zhuo family, the Cheng family, as well as the Wang family, Li family, and Zhao family. Can you finish eradicating them?"

"In my opinion, it's better for the imperial court to formulate regulations and control the export rights in their own hands."

"What can be sold and what can't be sold. To whom and for how much."

"These imperial courts can control them as a whole."

"Your Majesty ordered you to govern the world's business affairs, this is your scope of authority."

Chen Qing earnestly persuaded.

Fu Su was stunned for a moment, thought carefully, and immediately clapped his hands and said: "Sir, you really have a long-term vision, so it should be like this! I'll go back and discuss with my father to finalize the regulations earlier."

"I heard that Daqin's artifacts are extremely popular outside the region, and the prices are high."

"After Hu merchants purchase from Daqin, they often increase the price by more than ten times to sell."

"This is also taking advantage of the people of Daqin!"

Chen Qing nodded slightly in satisfaction, a child can be taught.

There are huge profits in business, and in cross-border trade, there are dozens or even hundreds of times of excess profits.

Chen Qing was greedy for the huge profits, but he didn't want to fight for this part of the market with the powerful people from all over the world.

It's too low!

My brother's name is Fusu!

He is the prince!

If Fusu even manages the right to export and trade, it would be reasonable for me to get some credit and get a franchise or something like that, right?

"Your Highness, like the Zhuocheng family, I already have a calculation in my heart."

"They are black-hearted, rich and powerful."

"It's a pity not to use it to do something immoral!"

Chen Qing offered his advice again.

Fu Su didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "I don't know what Mr. wants them to do?"

At this time, there was a pass from the guards outside, and Zhuo Tianlu and Cheng Ji came to see him.

"Xuan."

Fusu suddenly revealed a look of disgust.

Chen Qing gave him a wink, indicating that he would do things by himself.

Not long after, the two entered cautiously.

"The villain sees His Royal Highness the Prince."

Zhuo Tianlu and Cheng Ji bowed deeply to the bottom.

"Give a seat."

Fu Su cherishes words like gold.

Because of the preconceived notions, it is natural that they are not pleasing to the eye everywhere.

Zhuo Tianlu looked secretly out of the corner of his eye, and saw that Chen Qing was sitting next to the prince, with a close relationship, like a friend, and immediately complained secretly.

What Widow Qing said was right, Chen Qing was a newly-emerged favorite, and even Prime Minister Li Si was so angry that he was sick at home and recuperated, so there was nothing he could do about it.

When we fight against him, we are really overwhelmed and laughable.

"I called you here today because I have something to tell you two."

Chen Qing spoke first: "His Royal Highness knows about Zhuo and Cheng's smuggling of ironware."

Before the words were finished, Zhuo Tianlu and Cheng Ji knelt down in the middle of the hall.

"His Royal Highness, please forgive me!"

"I have no choice but to wait!"

"Your Highness forgive me!"

The two slammed their heads on the floor, as if they didn't know the pain, and soon their foreheads were bruised.

Fusu wanted to reprimand, but Chen Qing stopped him with his eyes.

"Get up."

"Your Highness is merciful and magnanimous. I think you are the first offenders, and I don't want to punish you severely."

"but……"

Zhuo Tianlu just breathed a sigh of relief, when he heard the 'but', he immediately promised: "Your Highness can punish the Zhuo family in any way you want, and please hold your hands high and let the villain's family survive."

Cheng Ji begged bitterly, "We will agree to whatever your Highness asks."

Chen Qing nodded with satisfaction.

"Is it possible to achieve the [-] young adults I told you yesterday?"

"can!"

"must be able to!"

The two agreed without hesitation.

Chen Qing said again: "His Royal Highness is furious when he learns that there are profiteers manipulating prices and colluding with external enemies. Fortunately, I have made a lot of maneuvers, so I am willing to let you live."

Zhuo Tianlu and Cheng Ji would not believe a word of his nonsense.

Of course, in this case, the two still thank you honestly.
