Prime Minister of Great Qin

Chapter 106 Will the building collapse? ! (seeking subscription)

The singing of birds from the willow forest outside the house could be heard faintly, and the Shenshen courtyard was as quiet as a valley.

Fusu's face changed in shock.

He never thought that there would be such serious consequences for merchants, and he really couldn't imagine that how can mere merchants cut off the vitality of Daqin?
Ji Heng ignored Fusu, took a sip of wine, and said calmly: "The affairs of the world have nothing to do with their size, they all depend on their influence on the world. If it affects the whole world, even a small matter will become a big deal." Big things, and vice versa."

"Guan Shanhai."

"The actual thing is not complicated."

"It's just taking back the production rights of the salt merchants and iron merchants."

"If it's only about merchants, it's only the size of a grain of rice to the people of the world, and they won't be too concerned about it. They just pay attention to how the price of salt and iron in the world will change after the government takes over. When it really affects the price, at least It will take more than half a month."

"Therefore, it has little impact on the world in the short term."

"But what if it's not just business?"

"Not only merchants?" Fusu frowned, and said in a concentrated voice: "Isn't this time targeting only salt merchants and iron merchants? Could it lead to others?"

Ji Heng was silent for a while, and said with serious eyes: "This is the tricky part."

"Qi agrees to cause trouble."

"That's almost certain."

"Qi merchants have profited from the operation of salt and iron for hundreds of years, how can they be willing to spit out the profits they have obtained? When the imperial government's decree goes down, merchants in Qidi will definitely instigate low-level salt workers and ministers to make trouble, and even Qidi is likely to explode. Not a little turmoil."

"However, only the salt workers and ministers in Qidi made troubles, and the court can actually calm down very easily."

"Not even a lot of troops."

"If the methods are fierce, you can use this to search for wealth and enrich the Shaofu. After all, Qi Shang has been operating in Qi for hundreds of years, and the accumulated wealth is probably huge. As long as the court targets it properly, it can definitely make a fortune from it."

"However, I don't really recommend it."

Fu Su wondered, "Why is that?"

"Because if the imperial court snatches a large amount of wealth from Qi and Shang, it may touch the fragile and sensitive heartstrings of the remnants of the six kingdoms." Ji Heng squeezed the bronze jue, with a look of deepness in his eyes, and said, "This is actually very dangerous for Great Qin." .”

"The remnants of the Six Kingdoms do not want the situation in Great Qin to improve."

"They just want Daqin to continue to corrupt."

"It's so bad it can't be turned back."

"Daqin's implementation of an alternative 'official mountains and seas' has actually touched the sensitive heartstrings of the remnants of the Six Kingdoms to a certain extent. It's just that Guan Zhong's reform has declined for a lifetime, and Daqin's attitude of trying to catch fish will make their hearts It was a fluke, thinking that Daqin was on the verge of collapse."

"Therefore, it is very likely that they will not choose to act rashly."

"but"

"If Great Qin seizes a lot of wealth from Qi, it will undoubtedly greatly relieve the pressure on money."

"This is obviously unacceptable to the remnants of the Six Nations."

"They have a great chance of causing trouble."

"It's true that the remnants of the six kingdoms are causing trouble, and there won't be too many storms right now, but it will increase the burden on the court. Every time a rebellion is suppressed, a lot of manpower, material and financial resources will be consumed. This will consume a lot of national power, and will eventually be transmitted to Bottom."

"It's going to be tougher at the bottom."

"Da Qin can't afford the rewards of the military merit system right now."

"A few more counter-rebellions will make it more difficult for the imperial court to fulfill their promises. The more times there are, the morale of the army will definitely be shaken."

"Once the morale of the army is unstable, something will really happen to Daqin."

heard.

Fusu's expression changed drastically.

He has heard the pros and cons.

Daqin is already trying to support the world. If it touches the heartstrings of the remnants of the Six Kingdoms, it will only increase the burden on Daqin. Of course, the remnants of the Six Kingdoms can be wiped out, but the Kanto is vast, and the remnants of the Six Kingdoms flee to the deep mountains, wild forests and rivers , The imperial court has no good way.

In the end, only the national power of the Great Qin was consumed.

Although Daqin can obtain a lot of money and food by searching Qi Shang, the big hole of the military meritorious rank cannot be filled by Qi Shang's money and food at all.

30 in Northern Plains and 50 in Southern Xinjiang.

Even if not everyone can be awarded or promoted, there are still 10,000+.

If you add that the founding of the country has not been fully realized, the number will only be even more terrifying. Qi Shang's money and food are simply a drop in the bucket.

The military merit system of Daqin is gradually collapsing.

What Daqin can do right now is to slow down the collapse of the military merit system as much as possible. It is best to let the military merit system collapse after the world is stable. Time collapsed, and the damage to Daqin would undoubtedly be devastating.

Fusu's face turned pale.

He is no longer ignorant and ignorant.

Also well aware of the benefits.

Daqin's stability overwhelms everything right now.

Only stability can delay enough time for Daqin to improve.

Da Qin must not be greedy for small profits.

He also completely understood Ji Heng's thoughts.

Da Qin should use the smallest effort to achieve stability in the world, even if it is only on the surface.

At the lowest cost, to quell the turmoil instigated by Qi Shang, try not to touch the heartstrings of the remnants of the six countries, so that the situation in the world is so stalemate.

In order to slow down the premature collapse of the military merit system.

Fu Su pondered for a moment, then said in a concentrated voice: "Mr. Ji, what should the imperial court do?"

Ji Heng shook his head and said, "This has nothing to do with the court's reaction. The Qi Chamber of Commerce instigates Qi to create chaos. The government will definitely take action and must do so, but the key is to control it within a certain range and not to intensify the matter."

"But even if the imperial court intends to control it, try to control it in a small area, and it will only target the early Qi Shang, and it will not determine the final direction of the situation."

"Because the decision-making power on this matter is no longer in the imperial court."

"And in the remnants of the Six Kingdoms!"

"If the remnants of the Six Kingdoms react strongly, and while there is chaos in Qi, troubles will follow in the other five places, and the court is destined to fall into a tug-of-war. This will be very unfavorable to Daqin, and it will gradually drag down Daqin. Daqin has nothing to do with it. It’s such a good idea, I can only watch myself being dragged down to death.”

"If the remnants of the Six Kingdoms and the officials of the Six Kingdoms are unwilling to take this muddy water."

"Then Daqin will have a chance to breathe."

"The number of five or five."

"Now it depends on whether the interests of salt and iron, coupled with the dislike of the five land alignment lands, will make them 'do not save'."

Fusu's heart trembled.

He can understand the benefits of salt and iron.

This is what Ji Heng deliberately threw to the officials and nobles of the six places.

But where does the dislike of the other five land alignment lands come from?
Fusu asked: "Is there any conflict between the Qi land and the other five lands? Don't they all oppose the Qin government? Why do you feel that there are still differences among them according to Mr. Ji?"

"The remnants of the Six Kingdoms are not monolithic." Ji Heng said with certainty, "But it's hard to say whether it can overcome the hatred for Qin."

"When the Great Qin swept the world, it fought with the other five countries. Only Qi surrendered quickly without much resistance. Therefore, the people of Qi were not well received by the other five countries in Kanto, but this is not the main reason. The most important thing is that Qi Guo will not save him."

"Qin destroyed Chu back then."

"There are 20 troops stationed on the border of Qi State."

"Once the Qi State sends troops, it is almost impossible for the Qin army to win the battle on three fronts. Even under the attack of Qi Chuyan from three sides, they may suffer a big defeat. At that time, the situation of the world will be difficult to say. The State of Chu requested several times to send troops, but the State of Qi chose to sit still and watch the tigers fight, hoping to wait for Qin and Chu to be defeated, and then to reap the benefits.”

"In the end, we only have to wait for the news of the collapse of Chu and Yan."

"Furthermore, the other five countries have basically experienced wars. Only the Qi State, which was caught by the Qin army's surprise, was wiped out almost effortlessly."

"The mainland of Qi has not experienced any wars."

"All kinds of reasons add up, and the Qi land is actually not very popular with the other five lands."

"In addition, the main targets this time are businessmen, whose status is already low, so the other five places are not necessarily willing to take action."

"Right now, the remnants of the Six Kingdoms' hatred for Qin is more overwhelming than the hatred for Qidi."

"If you overwhelm it."

"Daqin is basically hopeless."

"This time we are targeting merchants, and they are still in Qi, the most unpopular place in the world. Even if we can unite the remnants of the six kingdoms, this is enough to prove that the hatred of Qin by the remnants of the six kingdoms has long surpassed the interests of Qin." And the resentment for the year of "doing nothing"."

"Under such extreme hatred, it is impossible for Daqin to save the situation."

"Because it's a dead end."

"The reason why they hold back now is because Shihuang's prestige is too high, and his deterrent power to the world is too strong, but Shihuang is only one person, and manpower is extremely limited. Once something happens to Shihuang, the remaining evils of the six kingdoms will try it a little bit. After that, I will definitely choose to rise up."

"Even if Daqin can put down that rebellion."

"But next time?"

"What about next time?"

"The military merit system will also collapse."

"How long can Da Qin last?"

"When the military merit system completely collapses, it will be time for Daqin to be destroyed."

There was dead silence.

Fusu held his breath.

Ji Heng continued: "In fact, Daqin has accumulated so much that it is hard to return."

"The only thing that can be done is to exchange time for space. It's just Daqin's time, and even it depends on fighting for it."

"For me personally."

"Da Qin only has one chance of trial and error right now."

"It's the merchant!"

"Through this 'business', test the internal situation of the remnants of the Six Kingdoms, whether they are really monolithic, whether they really hate Daqin to the bone, whether this hatred really surpasses other emotions, and if it does, then it means Daqin is hopeless."

"Any disturbance in the wind and grass, the remnants of the Six Nations will oppose it."

"Anything Daqin wants to do, they will oppose, and whatever Daqin wants to push, they will stop."

"In this situation, Daqin cannot be saved."

"There's not much Great Qin can do right now, it all depends on the reaction of the remaining evils of the six kingdoms, if the other five lands choose to 'do nothing to save', then there is still room to maneuver, at least a chance to breathe."

"If you lose the bet."

"Perhaps we can only watch the Great Qin Building collapse."

"But at that time, Daqin might not be crazy."

"But who knows?"

Ji Heng shook his head and drank the wine in the pot.
