I am the system
Chapter 22 The Benefits of Encouraging Merchants
"Meet the System Immortal!"
In the white system space, as soon as Zu Long appeared, he solemnly saluted Wang Yuan.
"Why do you want to see me?"
Looking at the respectful Zulong, Wang Yuan asked with a smile.
"System Immortal, I am here to eliminate the remnants of the Six Kingdoms. I want to discuss it with you!" Hearing this, Zu Long immediately said: "The remnants of the Six Kingdoms are hidden in various places, and the number is difficult to determine, and it is difficult for anyone to distinguish. To eliminate them, I am afraid...will hurt many innocent people."
"Of course I also know about this!" Wang Yuan nodded and said seriously: "I have a list here, which is the main cause of the remaining evils of the Six Kingdoms. In addition, there are also many thieves among the nobles of the Six Kingdoms who are determined to restore the country. As for manslaughter , This matter is the foundation of stabilizing Kyushu, traitors are difficult to identify, and manslaughter is inevitable, just don’t kill indiscriminately.”
"In addition, this time I went to the Plaguelands, and I have seen and heard a lot. There are still many problems in Kyushu. I hope Zulong can improve it."
Afterwards, Wang Yuan talked to Zu Long about what he had seen, heard and guessed during his trip to Liaodong. Of course, there were also things that happened in the barracks.
"The remnants of the six kingdoms deserve to die, their hearts can be punished!"
After hearing what Wang Yuan said, especially when he heard that the remnants of the Zhao State had colluded with the Xiongnu and wanted to let the plague ravage the land of Kyushu, so as to make the Great Qin decline and the people of Kyushu to rebel, Zu Long couldn't help but said angrily.
Looking at the angry Zulong, Wang Yuan said with a smile: "Because of this, it is urgent to eliminate the remnants of the Six Kingdoms, but it is not appropriate to go to war on this matter!"
"I also ask the immortal to teach me!"
Hearing this, Zu Long said immediately.
"The remnants of the Six Kingdoms are like rootless duckweed. They can only make waves when the waves are rough. This is the most fundamental reason why they want the plague to spread.
They want to use this to detonate the grievances of the people of Daqin. At that time, they will raise their arms and shout against Qin, and with the medicine to treat the plague, the common people will follow them in large numbers, and even follow them with all their hearts.
Therefore, the first thing Daqin should do now is to make the people rich.The people have no worries about food and clothing, and hope for life, who would be willing to risk their heads to rebel against them, as long as the Great Qin is calm, it will be much easier to pull out their rootless duckweeds.
On the contrary, the resentment of the common people is still great now, and now they are going to fight. If the remnants of the six countries raise their arms and shout, even if they can't form a huge wave, it will definitely be a big trouble. I am afraid that many people will follow them. unfavorable. "
Hearing this, Zu Long thought about it for a while, then nodded, fully agreeing with this point of view.But then he was full of embarrassment, and said: "But now the military expenditure of Daqin is huge, and there is not much food in the treasury. How can we make the people rich?"
"It's actually quite simple!" Wang Yuan said with a smile, waving his hands and manifesting more than a dozen blueprints on the table.Said: "These are some sharp tools that can benefit the people. The item on this blueprint is the Quyuan plow, which can more than double the efficiency of plowing land, and only two people and one ox are needed. much more effective."
"This drawing is a steelmaking furnace, which can produce steel. The steel produced is better than bronze tools in terms of toughness and flexibility."
"This drawing is a stone mill..., this drawing shows sea salt extraction and purification, this drawing is papermaking, this drawing is movable type printing, and this drawing is a waterwheel."
Wang Yuan explained the drawings one by one to Zulong in detail.
Every time Wang Yuan finished speaking, Zu Long's eyes became more surprised and delighted.
After listening to Wang Yuan's narration, Zu Long couldn't help saying: "There are so many things that benefit the people, coupled with high-yielding grain seeds, within three years, Daqin will be rich enough!"
"Wrong, so the people can only count as having no worries about food and clothing, not rich!" Hearing this, Wang Yuan shook his head with a smile, and said: "When the people have no worries about food and clothing, there will be surplus in their hands. It will rot, and some places will also be caused by the environment, food production is still low, but minerals, medicinal materials are rich, or cloth is rich."
Hearing this, Zu Long pondered for a moment and asked, "Immortal, what should I do then?"
"It's very simple!" Wang Yuan said with a smile: "Mint a large number of coins, encourage merchants, and those merchants will coordinate and supplement the remaining materials from various places.
In this way, the people can exchange the remaining food and cloth for money to buy what they need, and the court can also collect taxes from merchants to fill the treasury.Lower taxes for the people.Reduce the pressure on the people's shoulders, so that when the people's lives are better, they will naturally not want to rebel. On the contrary, they will be grateful to Daqin, and at the same time Daqin's treasury can also be filled. "
Zu Long asked puzzledly: "Collecting taxes from merchants can fill the national treasury. If everyone goes into business, who will grow the land?"
Wang Yuan smiled and said: "Collecting taxes from merchants can fill the national treasury, because merchants seek profit, and naturally they will not do things that lose money in the process of buying and selling. It is better to say that merchants are in the process of buying and selling. Zhong has already helped Daqin to tax the people, and even as the goods are repeatedly handed over, they can collect taxes repeatedly. The more transactions, the higher the tax.
It's just that this tax is not collected in the name of Daqin, but in the name of merchants. It is no longer called a tax, but a premium. The people are grateful to the imperial court, but in fact, the taxes collected are not a lot at all, but more. "
"As for your concern about everyone going into business, that's completely redundant.
Merchants seek profit, and what they do is buying and selling. Most of the items in their hands are time-limited. They need to be sold as soon as possible before the time limit expires, otherwise they will only rot in their hands. In this way, there will naturally be competition among merchants. of.
The talents bestowed by God are different. Not everyone has the ability to be a businessman. Under natural selection, those without ability will only lose money, so naturally they have to continue farming.Those who can engage in business do not take one out of ten, and if they want to become a businessman, they must also be reviewed and registered by the imperial court. "
"Furthermore, with merchants, it can also promote the development of industry and peasants. Those who are unable to farm land or those without land can also use merchants to obtain money in exchange for food to live on and increase the source of livelihood of the people."
"After the merchants get up and see the benefits, many nobles will definitely start doing business. At that time, a decree will be promulgated that the land in the hands of all nobles cannot be left uncultivated, and another restriction will be set on the land rent. The rent of those who rent out the land cannot be higher than the tax. , will definitely be able to get the support of the majority of the people, and those nobles will have a greater source of interest, so it will be easier for them to let go, paving the way for the country to take back the land in the hands of the nobles.
In the future, as long as there is the support of the common people, then those remnants of the Six Kingdoms, the nobles of the Six Kingdoms, no matter how ambitious and capable they are, they are still generals without soldiers. "
"Immortals have great opinions!" After hearing Wang Yuan's words, Zu Long's eyes suddenly brightened, and he suddenly became enlightened.
In this way, not only is my own worry unnecessary, but Daqin can also make the country rich and the people strong, and the people rich and the country strong. The nobles of the six countries have no soldiers to use.
If things go on like this, it will be much easier to attack those nobles from the six countries in the future.
In the white system space, as soon as Zu Long appeared, he solemnly saluted Wang Yuan.
