Emperor Qin Ba Shi

Chapter 483 Hu Hai who has no money and wants to open a business route!
The next day, early in the morning.

After Hu Hai practiced the sword, he returned to the dormitory. Since there were too few court ladies, Queen Wang Luojie personally helped Hu Hai to dress and wash.

Now the Great Qin Empire is completely poor, from the whole court of the Great Qin Empire, no matter in the palace, or among the three princes and nine ministers, they have all been reduced.

Even in the Great Qin Palace, it is the same.Therefore, in the whole palace, the population has withered, and there are only a few people who take care of the queen.

……

"Han Tan, pass on my order to order the Supreme Procuratorate of the Empire to collect the evidence of the Yongcheng Order and be sentenced by the Supreme Court of the Empire, and execute the death penalty together with Songlin Gou Lizheng!"

"Yes!" Nodding in agreement, Han Tan walked out.

……

This is the decision Hu Hai made after thinking for a long time last night.In the face of such a thing, we must not tolerate it, we must kill it.

Even if the strength of the Ying clan is getting weaker and weaker, Ying Zhi is an outsider after all.

For the lineage of the Ying family, we must look at the inheritance of his lineage. After all, in the current Great Qin Empire, only he is the orthodox lineage of the first emperor.

……

Hu Hai's edict was promulgated from the Prime Minister's Mansion. For a while, there was a huge turmoil in the ruling and opposition parties of the Great Qin Empire. No one thought that under the general trend of reform, Hu Hai would still be so ruthless.

Two days later, the execution ground on the north bank of the Weishui River was once again crowded with people.This time, the people of the country no longer had the fear of the last time, and everyone was excitedly talking about the two criminals.

At noon, there was a sharp horn on the north bank of the Weishui River, and the heads of Yingzhi and Songlingou Lizheng sprayed blood and rolled onto the green shoots.

An unprecedented jubilation erupted on the north bank of the Weishui River, which was crowded with people.

There is a reason for the cheers of the people of the country. This is the second member of the royal family who has been judged by Qin Fa in the true sense besides Yingqian.

Moreover, the time before and after happened to be stuck at the point of Shang Jun's reform and Qin Emperor Hu Hai's reform.For a while, Hu Hai, who had greatly increased his reputation due to the implementation of the reform, became a figure like Shang Yang in the eyes of the old Qin people.

Just hearing such rumors, Hu Hai was very surprised, but after a moment, his heart was filled with uncontrollable ecstasy.

Hu Hai still attaches great importance to the matter of reputation.He knew in his heart that only when everyone in the Great Qin Empire recognized him could he die for the country.

……

The second emperor of the Great Qin Empire sued the case of Lizheng in Songlingou, and the curtain came to an anticlimactic end, and finally ended with the blood of Yongcheng Ling Yingzhi.

Hu Hai, who had been silent for a long time in the study, was once again full of fighting spirit. Now that the revolution has not yet succeeded, he still needs to work hard.

"Your Majesty, after this reform, even though the tax is [-]/[-], after the autumn harvest, the tax paid will not be lower than before!"

Right Prime Minister Kuai Che, with joy in his eyes, came to Xianyang Palace to look for Hu Hai. He did not expect that besides Hu Hai's prestige, there would be such unexpected gains in this reform.

Glancing at the happy Kuai Che, Hu Hai smiled, not surprised by this.

"Your Excellency, this reform has measured the land hidden by the previous aristocratic clans, and all cultivated land in the Great Qin Empire needs to be taxed."

"Even if it is the land that is awarded, it is no exception. Naturally, the tax will not be reduced!"

Having said that, Hu Hai stared at Kuai Che and said, "Your Prime Minister, you have personally presided over the reform matters recently, how is the Daqin treasury now?"

Hearing Hu Hai's question, Kuai Che's eyes darkened: "Your Majesty, since the implementation of the reform was at the beginning of last year and the spring plowing has just started this year, the emptiness of the treasury has not been relieved."

"Not relieved?"

With a murmur, Hu Hai suddenly fell silent. He knew that there was no relief, that is, the treasury was empty, and the Great Qin Empire could not support any large-scale war.

This will not only make Daqin lose his advantage in the following vicissitudes, but also make Hu Hai unable to practice the countless ideas in his mind.

It's hard for a smart woman to cook without rice, and it's hard for a penny to make a hero. At this time, Hu Hai feels like this.

"The army, the city guards, and the imperial court all need a lot of money. If this continues, there is no way!"

After being silent for a while, Hu Hai looked straight at Kuai Che, and said, "Your Honor, what do you think of my opening up business routes?"

"boom……"

Kuai Che's heart was shocked by Hu Hai's words. He never thought that Hu Hai would think of merchants.After all, since ancient times, scholars, farmers, businessmen, and merchants have been ranked last.

Merchants are the most despised.Even the sons of merchants cannot become officials.

After a long time, Kuai Che suppressed the shock in his heart, and hurriedly cupped his hands to Hu Hai, saying: "Your Majesty, farming is the foundation, and the wind of merchants is strong, which is not good for Daqin!"

Hu Hai frowned upon hearing this.He knows in his heart that in this era, agriculture is the foundation, and merchants are only the last.

In the entire history of the Great Qin Empire, only Lu Buwei became a big businessman and became the prime minister of the Great Qin Empire.

Coupled with the first emperor's resistance to this matter, the Great Qin Dynasty severely suppressed merchants.

After pondering for a moment, Hu Hai said, "I'm thinking about this matter, and I'll ask you to do the right phase transformation!"

"Yes!"

……

After Kuai Che left, Hu Hai frowned. He knew that in the past dynasties, the most profitable things were salt and iron, but this would not work in the Great Qin Empire.

After Shang Yang's reform, the Great Qin Empire controlled the profits of mountains and marshes, and also implemented a salt and iron monopoly.

In the Great Qin Empire, salt and iron were monopolized by the government, and taxes were included in the price, so that the people could not avoid taxation, and they could not feel taxation.

Such countermeasures shocked Hu Hai.Sometimes he would be surprised that Shang Jun Wei Yang had some actions, and he missed the future generations too much.

The legal system of the Shang monarch not only surpassed the contemporary era, in Hu Hai's view, it even surpassed the Chinese legal system for more than 2000 years.

It's just that salt and iron have been monopolized for a long time, which means that Hu Hai can't make any money, and the financial dilemma of the Great Qin Empire still cannot be changed.

……

"Salt and iron is the fastest-growing profitable industry in the world. It still can't make up for the shortfall of the Qin Empire's treasury. It seems that the business route must be opened!"

His eyes flickered, and Hu Hai thought deeply for a while.He knows that trade can only promote the growth of the country, and will not destroy the national structure.

But once merchants become big, they will affect politics. Almost the most famous merchants in history are all official businessmen.

For a moment, Hu Hai's heart was hot. He knew that throughout the history of China, the Song Dynasty was the most open to merchants. At that time, the Song Dynasty was half of the country, but it had the world's first GDP. It was because of the prosperity and prosperity of the Song Dynasty.
