Back to Daqin to be Emperor

Chapter 38
One hundred thousand households?
The courtiers whispered, on weekdays, no one cares about such data, and no one can see it, but when the data is revealed, countless people's hearts are pounding.

Because, among them, the net worth of these courtiers is also in it.

They get wealth from Shiyi every year, and almost all of them are brought to Xianyang. No one else, living in the capital, the consumption price is too high, or there are too many temptations, how can they live without taking money from Shiyi?

Fighting cocks and running dogs, in order to buy a high-quality fighting cock, it is common to spend a lot of money, or you value a singer, and you want to take it home without spending a few hundred gold?

Yingzheng's eyes were full of light in an instant, and each of them was like a small treasury walking. Last time, he killed nine out of ten Ziqian merchants in Xianyang, and it was so refreshing and exciting to eat all of a sudden!
If these people's money was transferred to his own pocket, Ying Zheng could no longer imagine what a wonderful scene it would be.

However, Yingzheng also knew that he couldn't do this. If all these people were to be wiped out, the threat to his rule would be too great, and the courtiers alone could not agree to it. Therefore, Yingzheng waited patiently for Fusu's next words.

Fusu was also secretly stunned. Xianyang was probably the only city with so much wealth in BC!

This is the wealth that the first emperor forcibly integrated with political and military forces.If Yingzheng hadn't moved all the rich households in the world to Xianyang before that, how could there be so many rich households in Xianyang alone.

Yingzheng didn't do much to these rich households. Basically, these wealthy households can still maintain their original wealth.Unlike the mausoleum system established in the Western Han Dynasty, the wealth of the wealthy households who migrated will at least shrink by more than half, and it is not bad to keep [-]% in the end.

This point, you have to study hard!

Fusu then bowed and said: "Father, my ministers think that the minimum price of a house in Xindu is [-] yuan, and only those with a title of doctor or above can live in Xindu."

Fifty thousand dollars?It was less than a hundred gold, and Ying Zheng and the courtiers made calculations in their hearts.

However, ordinary people don't say [-] yuan, even [-] yuan can't be given out, and those who can take out [-] yuan without blinking are definitely not ordinary people, at least they are distinguished from ordinary civilians.

Fusu continued: "The amount of money obtained can be used for the construction of the new capital, and at the same time, it can be used to identify the number of households living in the new capital."

"Also, I would like to ask my father to show mercy and allow the people to exchange money for titles below officials and officials." This opinion is a patch on the above strategy.

Some merchants have tens of millions of wealth, but they only lack titles. Now that they have such a channel, they may be crazy to take money in exchange for titles.

It's all because of the Lordship System of Military Merit and Famous Fields set up by Lord Shang, which infinitely elevates the title.Title, in Great Qin, means privilege, status, and status.

And merchants have tens of millions of net worth, but they must follow the law for basic necessities of life. Think about it, a rich man has countless money, but he can only live like an ordinary Qianshou. What do you do with the money?
Moreover, these people have always been the focus of Qin Ting's attention. Once they break the law, their families will be ruined, just like those money merchants who have countless wealth. Prove how many crimes they have committed without saving their lives.

However, Daqin's title can be used to offset crimes. If a person with a title and without a title commits the same case, there will be completely two results when it is dealt with.

But it is extremely difficult to obtain the title.For example, to obtain the lowest duke title, one needs to be beheaded.It doesn't sound difficult, but on the battlefield, beheading one level, and those who have really experienced the battlefield, should know how difficult it is to do this step.

Some people have been in the army for decades, have gone through countless battles, and finally returned home as public servants.

"Your Majesty, I think it is impossible. Since Shang Yang's reform, there has only been exchange of grain for nobles, but never money for nobles. Our Great Qin is based on farming and warfare. Once this end is opened, our Great Qin State will be destroyed."

Um?Hats off again?
Fusu glanced back, just in time to see Yan Le's impassioned Chen said there, who didn't know, thought that a loyal minister came out of nowhere.

I didn't touch him before, because building a new building is a big deal, how can I have time to talk to him?Unexpectedly, it jumped out again.It is unreasonable not to shoot him.

But it's still important to get down to business, and there will be plenty of time to deal with him later.

However, Yan Le was right in one point. Qin Ting had never done this kind of practice of exchanging money for titles since Shang Yang's reform.Some are just exchanging food for nobles, and the openings are extremely small, and often only exist for a period of time.

For example, in the Battle of Changping during the period of King Qin Zhaoxiang, the frontline army rations were insufficient. At that time, in order to supplement the frontline army rations, a period of time was started to exchange food for nobles.

When the war ended, the opening was immediately closed.

"Fusu, what's your explanation for this?" Ying Zheng sat on top and asked calmly.

Fusu walked directly in front of Yan Le and asked, "Xianyang Order, may I ask how many of those who exchange grain for nobles have grain in their homes?"

Before Yan Le could answer, Fusu had already replied: "Those who exchange grain for nobles are mostly merchants, but they just buy it with money and then send it to the government. How is its essence different from exchanging money for nobles?"

"Besides, my son also said that the exchange of money for nobles is only limited to officials and officials. I am based on farming and warfare in the Great Qin Dynasty. Do I still need the Xianyang Order to teach Gu?"

"Fusu, the son of the family with the surname Ying, the eldest son of the Great Qin Shihuang, do you think Xianyang Ling Bigu cares more about the world of Great Qin?"

Fusu's last sentence can be said to be heartbreaking. If you dare to answer yes, Ying Zheng is on top. Would he wonder if Xianyang Ling coveted the world of Great Qin?If the answer is no, it's slapping yourself in the face.

For a moment, Yan Le fell into a dilemma.

Ying Zheng glanced at Yan Le and said, "Xianyang Ling, you should step back for now."

Although Ying Zheng had shown some displeasure in his words, in the end, he didn't do anything to Yan Le. After all, Ying Zheng still trusted Zhao Gao very much.

"Prime Minister, what do you think of the boy's strategy?" Fu Su looked at Li Si and asked with a smile.

Li Si stared at Fu Su, naturally he couldn't say that Fu Su's strategy was bad, because Li Si couldn't come up with a more reasonable plan than this.

Originally, Li Si spoke out to stop it because the construction of a new metropolis would make the treasury unable to make ends meet. Now that Fusu has solved this problem, Li Si naturally has no reason to stop it.

Meng Yi knew that he should stand up at this time, and immediately came out and said: "Your Majesty, the strategy offered by Mr. Fu Su has enabled me to build a new city in Daqin. It doesn't cost a penny, and it can let Your Majesty give favor to the people. Good policy, I beg Your Majesty for your permission."
