309 campaign first day

The next day was the first day of the campaign.

At the South City Gate, the Qin State built a large ring. This ring was made specifically for the Prime Minister.

The two candidates had to first explain their political views in the work of half a pillar of incense. Then, there are mutual questions, and then the people are free to ask questions and debates. It will be a head-to-head confrontation.

During this period, the electors were free to register with the city gatekeeper. Then press the handprint to choose your own prime minister. For this reason, the Qin State specially allocated a large amount of paper for the ballot for this election, although it was a blank piece of paper, and even the names of the people on it had to be filled in by the government. Then press the handprint to draw a charge. Final vote. Although some are too public. But this is the first time that the pair has run for prime minister in this way. It was the first time in the Great Qin Kingdom. All the people who had gone through a day of propaganda came to the gate of the southern city early in the morning. And the king of Qin also specially rushed to the south city gate to check the situation of this campaign.

Winter mornings are still cold. But he couldn't resist the Qin people from electing their own prime minister. Many of them came early in the morning. If you can't come, ask someone to come and hear what's going on. Especially what the young right minister said. They are very desperate to get accurate information. Let's see if it's true. They can be said to be coming for Shang Wen.

The campaign was supposed to start an hour later. But seeing this. King Qin made a special order. The campaign started early. This made Li Si very uneasy. Because his manuscript is not finished yet. Although he has literary talent. But so openly to run. He really couldn't write.

First up is Lees. Li Si walked up to the stage with a thick manuscript. There were so many people watching from below. actually made this prime minister who had seen the world nervous. The manuscript took the wrong number of pages.

Li Si read half a page in a daze, and then found out. Li Si knew that he couldn't go back like this, so he thought hard. The manuscripts are almost entirely in the style of classical Chinese. That is, the kind of music that is sparse in the above table. There were all kinds of onlookers, but civilians made up a large part. There are very few who can understand it. A lot of people are starting to get impatient. The venue began to be noisy.

"Oh. What is this Xiang Xiang thinking? I want to sleep when I hear it. Shangwen said with a snort.

"Oh, don't say you don't understand. Even I, who can understand, are about to fall asleep. This old guy is not as good as you, I think, this prime minister, you are decided. Yingyu said happily.

In the lower stands, two other people also shook their heads. "This prime minister of the Great Qin State has a very good literary style, but it's a pity. The people in this audience don't understand, they don't know what they want, how can they win the hearts of the people. Princess Liu Yi shook her head and said.

"Princess・・・・・ Childe said so." Zhang Liang changed his words.

Half a pillar of incense arrived soon. Poor Li Si was forced to step down before he finished reading half of the manuscript in his hand.

Then Shang Wen took the stage. Shang Wen has a manuscript, but thinks he is a little nervous about reading it. So he decisively abandoned the manuscript. Empty-handed. As soon as he took the stage. Everyone saw the young right-hand minister come empty-handed. Everyone praised its courage, and many people shouted "Cai." ”

Shang Wen replied with a smile.

"To ladies and gentlemen. Good morning. Shang Wen still uses modern polite language. This also became Shangwen's own trademark.

"Good. Good. The people below thought it was a greeting, and immediately chimed in.

Shang Wen waved his hand. The people below also waved.

"Yesterday's speech, maybe some people have already heard it yesterday. But now I still need to go in, considering the time. I will briefly elaborate on my opinion. If you have any questions, just wait until the question session. All right? Shang Wen first explained.

"Okay." Everyone began to answer with the right word.

Shang Wen's policy was already talked about yesterday, but today it is just compressed into a certain period of time, and within this half pillar of incense, Shang Wen has expounded on the countermeasures in the military, politics, diplomacy, education, and infrastructure construction. These measures are all in the vernacular, and are described in a language that many people can understand. The people below heard it clearly, and King Qin also nodded in approval. Princess Liu Yi listened attentively. Yingyu listened excitedly. Zhang Liang was shocked to hear it. This is the first time that the direction of a country's policy development has been fully displayed in front of the public. There were also a large number of merchants from the Six Nations around the stands, who came specifically to listen.

The presentation was over quickly. According to the rules, at this time, the people can vote for the people they elect. Many people who were fascinated by the listening began to wake up and went to register to vote. It's a pity that the preparation was not in place, and I didn't expect so many people to appear at once. So the king of Qin ordered the Royal Forest Army to participate. This relieved the crowd that had suddenly crowded.

Princess Liuyi, who was fascinated by listening, actually went to vote without listening to the call. As a result, he was reprimanded by the officials of the Qin State, "What are Koreans doing when they participate in the affairs of my Great Qin." "This made Princess Liu Yi a little embarrassed.

The mutual questioning phase begins. Liss asked first. Seeing his mistake in the first link, Li Si planned to get it back immediately in the second link. He heard about Shangwen's talk about the trade of the Six Nations. He also noticed. This issue was not mentioned in the event of a loud cheer from the crowd during yesterday's session. When it was just mentioned, everyone was shocked. They still don't understand what's going on. I can't even accept the fact that I can't even accept it.

This question was quickly poked out by Li Si. Everyone looked at Shang Wen quietly. Many Qin people still did not understand why they were trading with the Six Kingdoms.

"Speaking of this issue, what I want to say is that as long as trade is launched, the Qin state can increase taxes. Taxation is the only way to increase government revenue. With these revenues. Only then can the government carry out all kinds of affairs, such as infrastructure, education, health care, etc. ”

Such a simple explanation, the people understood.

"In order to encourage everyone to have capital to invest, Qin adopted a policy of tax exemption or less taxation at the beginning, and we need to support the development of some industries. Only in this way can we promote the economic development of our country. ”

"To do so will inevitably reduce the state's revenues, and in order to avoid a decrease in revenues, there will be a market for the large quantities of industrial goods produced by the establishment of the factories. Trade with the six countries must be launched. Only by trading with the six countries can our industrial products go abroad and be exchanged for capital for our development. Shang Wen said loudly.

"Only in this way can our country, the Qin State, and the people become rich and the country stronger. We will be proud of our country. In this way, more people from the Six Kingdoms can join our Qin State and participate in the process of strengthening the Qin State. Shang Wensu said.
