Looking at the miserable appearance of these businessmen in front of him, Li Yang was also very helpless.

These people, not to mention the relationship between Ba Shi and himself, are a few other people, and they are also the people who responded to the bidding for the new policy with all their might, so it is not good to treat them too strongly.

And if you just kick them out? Obviously too ruthless.

But because they cried out, they took pity on them and promised to keep the lands they had previously annexed? Or take care of it and levy only half? Then this new land reform policy will be completely cool if it is ironclad.

Therefore, Li Yang was also in trouble for a while.

Land reform is related to the people's livelihood in the world, to the society of Daqin, and to whether he can gain a foothold in the court, so Li Yang knows very well in his heart that it is impossible to regress.

Since you can't sympathize with them, then ......

Li Yang's face simply changed, with an angry look on his face, and he said angrily: "Bastards! It's really a mother's heart, kindness is not repaid, what about your conscience? Have you let the dog go! ”

"............" several businessmen are blinded!

This is...... What's the situation?

Everyone, look at me, I'll look at you, I don't understand why Li Yang is so angry and scolds himself and others.

Ba Shi also looked confused, and he didn't understand the meaning of Li Yang's scolding at all.

Li Yang was stunned when he saw that everyone was scolded, so he continued to scold: "You are still a businessman, you are so short-sighted, this court is bent on the welfare of your businessmen in the future, and you are crying to me, blaming this court for not implementing a new land reform policy, you ...... You're going to be mad at this hospital! ”

This time, everyone is even more blindfolded.

Everyone originally came to tell him about their grievances, and they wanted to say that he had no conscience, but now he scolded him for having no conscience?

This...... Is there a mistake?

Everyone looked at Ba Shi and wanted him to speak. Because Ba Shi hasn't said a word yet.

At this time, Ba Shi was also scolded by this group of heads, scolded a little inexplicably, and saw everyone's eyes looking at him, so he had to ask: "Dean, what are you...... I'm a little confused. ”

Li Yang sighed, retracted his previous angry expression, and said to Ba Shi: "Brother Ba, I won't say much about the relationship between you and me, I have long regarded you as my own." To tell the truth, land reform is implemented throughout the country, and it is impossible to favor anyone. I will not allow any of the officials below to be partial, let alone myself. This one...... Can Brother Ba understand? ”

Ba Shi nodded, in fact, he knew that land reform was unlikely to make Li Yang show mercy to their subordinates, but thinking that his own land was about to be confiscated by the imperial court, he was still very anxious and desperate, so he ran to Li Yang, after all, he was looking forward to a glimmer of hope.

Now, when he heard Li Yang's words, he also knew that there was no way to keep the land.

However, although he understood in his heart that Li Yang would not destroy the land reform policy, he was very curious, what do you mean by scolding us all for having no conscience?

Just as he was about to inquire about this, he heard Li Yang continue: "Land reform is unstoppable, not to mention you merchants, even princes and nobles, he can't stop it." Moreover, I can also reveal to you that after the imperial court collects the land, it will allow the contract system, divide the land equally among households, and implement the contract, and the people of the world will only have the right to use it, but not the ownership. Have you ever thought that even if you hold the land, the land cannot be bought or sold, and it can be made rich by farming? ”

"This ......"

Suddenly, Ba Shi and the other four businessmen were asked by Li Yang.

Yes, the land is owned by the imperial court, which means that even if you occupy the land, you are only contracting him to farm, and it is indeed difficult to make a fortune by selling grain.

Seeing that he had confused everyone, Li Yang was also slightly relieved in his heart, and then said: "The project you undertook this time, after a year, I'm afraid the profit will be countless times that of farming and selling grain, right?" ”

Everyone nodded, although the price of the project bidding was extremely low, but the profit was still there.

And this profit is naturally countless times greater than selling grain.

Li Yang said: "In the future, the people will have their own fields and solve the problem of food and clothing, what will be the future of Daqin?" ”

Everyone looked stunned again, and their faces were booed.

A businessman asked, "I hope the dean will make it clear." ”

Li Yang smiled proudly and said, "Commercial society! ”

"Business society?"

As soon as everyone heard these four words, they immediately exclaimed in surprise, and their eyes couldn't help but widen.

Li Yang nodded: "That's right, the problem of food and clothing has been solved, and what the dean will do in the future is to develop commerce, and the emperor is also determined to build a prosperous and powerful Qin State." And what does a country need to rely on if it wants to thrive? Nothing more than two words: business! ”

This time, everyone was excited.

Ba Shi's face turned crimson and said, "What does the dean mean to say...... In the future, will my Daqin be a business-oriented country? ”

Everyone also looked at Li Yang nervously.

Li Yang bowed slightly, looked like a pointer, and said with a smile: "After solving the problem of food and clothing, the people will have money, food, and yearning for a better life, and the pursuit of a better life, although it is a kind of spiritual satisfaction, but spiritual satisfaction is actually obtained through material satisfaction." Therefore, there are needs for clothing, food, housing, and transportation. As businessmen, you should understand that where there is demand, there is a market, and in the future it will create a commercial society. ”

Everyone is a businessman, or a top businessman, so naturally they understand what Li Yang said as soon as they hear it.

When people have enough food and clothing, and have surplus food, they will think about eating better, dressing better, living better, and making good use of everything. In this way, is the restaurant business of the Ba family good? Is there a big demand for wine? Isn't the cloth business good......

It can be said that all aspects have come alive all at once, and who is the person who can meet everyone's material needs? Isn't it just these businessmen themselves?

Thinking of this, several people's eyes lit up.

At this time, Li Yang also knew that they had understood, so he concluded: "If you produce goods, you can earn all the money and food of the people in the world. What's more, if you really want land, you can still contract it with the imperial court. ”

Everyone nodded thoughtfully, because if it was really like the prospect depicted by Li Yang, farming was indeed inferior to business.

Li Yang seemed to think of something again, and said, "The most important point, don't you want to improve your status?" ”

At this moment, the five people were even more excited, they businessmen, what they wanted most was identity and status, which was something they could not reach. Hearing Li Yang's words at this time, how could there be a reason not to be excited? So they hurriedly said: "The dean is willing to improve the status of our businessmen?" ”

Li Yang shook his head: "This court can't help you improve your status, but you can improve your status yourself." ”

"Oh? Ourselves? ”

Suddenly, the five of them were stunned again, and they didn't understand what Li Yang meant at all.

"I hope the dean will teach you!" Everyone bowed their hands.

Li Yang chuckled, and then said: "You businessmen, since the beginning of the Shang Martingale Reform, you have been extremely suppressed, and commerce is even regarded as a cheap industry by the world. Why? ”

Ba Shi said with a wry smile: "Since the beginning of the Shang Dynasty, the emphasis on agriculture and the suppression of business, the world regards our businessmen as not producing, only doing reselling to make a living, in order to make profits, regarded as traitors, and is despised by the world, so ...... Ay! ”

Speaking of this, Ba Shi sighed extremely helplessly and aggrieved.

Several other businessmen also lowered their heads and looked not angry.

Li Yang smiled: "What the world said is right, if you don't produce, who can afford you." ”

Bashi et al.: "............"

Dean, why do you say that about us?

A few people were stupid.

At this time, Li Yang said: "Why don't you do production, because there is no demand, the people of the world only need food, and other salt, iron, and horses are all the needs of the country. ”

"This ......"

Everyone was speechless, because what Li Yang said was really right.

Li Yang snorted coldly, and then said: "Just imagine, when the people have needs for food, clothing, housing and transportation, the days of your reselling are coming to an end, what will the merchants rely on in the future?" Relying on production, the production of goods related to clothing, food, housing and transportation, you will no longer be a person who does not produce, and the prosperity of a country depends on the hands of merchants such as you, and how can the status of merchants not rise? ”

As soon as they heard this, everyone suddenly realized.

Everyone's eyes were bright, and they immediately bowed: "Hearing the dean's words today, it really makes people open up and see the sun, let me wait for the initiation, and the mouth will be opened." ”

Li Yang waved his hand: "Needless to say, in short, today's land reform is to create a commercial society in the future, and it is you businessmen who will be in charge in the future, so you must take a long-term view." Five years at the fastest, ten years at the slowest, and within ten years, you will believe what this House says today. ”

Everyone nodded their heads as if pounding garlic, and said, "That's that, how can we not believe the dean's words." ”

Li Yang nodded with satisfaction, waved his hand and said, "Okay, it's good to know, go back!" ”

Everyone hurriedly saluted again: "Dean Xie, I'll go back and persuade my peers later." ”

In this way, this group of guys ran over with a complaining and aggrieved face, but they were scolded by Li Yang, and finally left with a thousand thanks......

However, when Ba Shi was also about to leave, Li Yang stopped him.

"Brother, Mi'er, she ...... Really back to Bashu? Li Yang asked.

Bashi nodded and sighed.

Li Yang was in a heavy mood for a while.

After a long time, he looked up and said to Ba Shi: "I promised to marry her, and I will definitely do it, and when I solve the current matter, I will go to find her." ”

Ba Shi actually wanted Li Yang to find his sister, and when he heard this, he couldn't help but feel warm in his heart, and said: "If the son can really marry Mi'er, I am willing to give the son the address." ”

Li Yang nodded: "Thank you, Brother Ba." ”

Speaking of this, Li Yang continued: "By the way, Brother Ba, I can't take care of the land reform, but what I said today, there is no falsehood, as long as I, Li Yang, am still in the court, I will definitely build a commercial society, and the future Ba Shi will definitely become a business empire." ”

When Ba Shi heard this, he nodded excitedly: "My Ba family has never doubted Gongzi. ”

Li Yang smiled, full of gentleness, like a family member......
