Zhao Guo, the prime minister's mansion of Li Mu in Handan.

"It seems that airplanes are not built all at once. I thought we could make it by simply imitating it, but what I didn't expect was that such an accident would happen all of a sudden. Li Mu looked at a short report in his hand and said.

"Prime Minister, this shows that the level of science and technology in our Zhao State is still insufficient. It takes us a long time to accumulate, and if we don't, it will be very troublesome. Li Zuoche said.

"Hmm. That's right, we still need a lot of science and technology, but in this regard, we are still not enough, which requires our academies, science laboratories to conduct large-scale research, without such research, I am afraid it will not work. Li Mu said.

"Prime Minister, I have a suggestion, that is, let our academy spend some money and hire those professors from the Qin State to teach in the Zhao State, and the things they teach are the same as the things they teach in the Qin State. Although we can't learn, we can study hard, not only that, but also send more students to Qin, to study in Qin, in short, what is good, we will learn what Qin has in Qin, everything is in line with Qin. Li Zuoche said.

"Hmm. This cost is deducted from military spending, and some of it is possible to figure it out. Science and technology are hard standards. Li Mu said. As science and technology become more and more important in the development of all walks of life. Li Mu felt that Zhao Guo should find a way to accumulate some science and technology, only in this way could they have better development.

Chu. Pengcheng.

"Is there an iron ore found in Danyang County?" Fan Zeng asked Chen Ping in disbelief.

"Is this news true? I think you should check it out on the spot, and if you can't get the iron ore, it's a big joke. Fan Zeng said worriedly.

"This is a result of repeated exploration by the Zhao exploration team, and it is said that the iron ore deposit is very good. It should be possible. I think that as long as we can identify iron ore, we can mine it on a large scale. Chen Ping said to Fan Zeng.

"Hmm. Good. Okay, it's just that we don't have the funds to do this for the time being, but iron ore is very important to our Chu State. Fan Zeng said.

"Especially the steel smelting technology, after we have steel, we can make cannons, guns, iron beams, and Zhao Guoren has been doing this." Fan Zeng said.

"Yes, Prime Minister, it's just that our current technical level is not enough, we can only take the way of cooperation, at present we have two cooperation objects, one is to cooperate with Qin, they have funds, technology, and capital and technology are abundant, but I am afraid that we will give up more shares. In this case, it is very bad for us. Chen Ping said.

"And the other is Zhao Guo, I heard that Zhao Guo has mastered steel technology, but it has not yet been put into large-scale production. If they produce steel, I think they will probably invest further in building factories. We will have the opportunity to cooperate, and our Chu country will have its own steel technology. Chen Ping continued.

"Qin people's technology and funds are relatively abundant, if they cooperate, they occupy the absolute initiative, but they are not not not going to take the initiative, we mainly cooperate with Zhao people, although Zhao Guoren is almost technical, but they don't have much funds, our funds are not much, both have difficulties, this is clear to both sides, so, I think we are still more advantageous to cooperate with Zhao people, Qin's advantage is too obvious. It is very unfavorable to us, and the Qin people are self-righteous, they occupy a lot of technology and capital and think that they can control us. Fan Zeng said.

"Hmm. The prime minister is right, but I think there are two places to choose the site of the iron-smelting plant, one is nearby, and the other is built in Haicheng. In our territory, after all, a large number of coal mines have not been discovered, with coal mines we can further develop a large number of iron plants, this coal, it is best to transport the coal to Jiaozhou Qingcheng by rail, and then dock in Haicheng from Qingcheng, Haicheng has a large number of shipyards need iron beams. In that case, the demand will be reduced, there are iron mines in Danyang, and the state-owned coal mines in Zhao, so that the problems will be solved a lot. Chen Ping said.

"Yes. In this way, the city of Haicheng was developed. Fan Zeng nodded in agreement with Chen Ping's plan.

Qin State, Xianyang.

"The technology of all countries is developing rapidly, in contrast, the science and technology of our Qin State is much behind, and many new technologies have been developed, but they have not been put into production on a large scale. The reason is the lack of funds, but with the stock markets of various countries rising, I think that the problem of funds will be solved greatly on the part of the banks. Shang Wen said.

"I believe that our financial companies will do better, but it is unlikely that the government will have much tax policy support in this regard. We already have the relevant legal backing. It's just that there are still some dilemmas in terms of production. Meng Yi said.

"Coupled with our fiscal and tax problems, I am afraid that the strength given is difficult to maintain." Meng Yi said worriedly.

"We've got to do something about getting some tax support." Shang Wen said.

"But we haven't been able to find an effective way to tax it, and it's unlikely that we'll issue more bonds. At present, all countries are desperately reducing taxes, and Qin State is taking the lead in levying taxes, which may not be appropriate, if personal income tax is levied, it will inevitably affect the personal income of families. Meng Yi said.

"Well, we can look into it, don't make a blind decision, we're not in a hurry." Shang Wen said. However, as for how to collect taxes, Shangwen is not very clear about solving this problem, and the solution of this problem needs to be paid attention to in many places. Shang Wen is not yet fully aware of this.

Although the government can issue more bonds, blindly issuing bonds will make the government out of long-term debt, but without more financial support, the Qin State can not solve such a problem, Shang Wen suddenly thought of a solution, that is, to mortgage government assets to borrow from banks, or to provide more bonds to solve this problem. Although it is very risky to the country and it is likely to control the country, it can effectively solve the problem of funding, but this plan may be a bit too bold. And how will the next administration solve this dilemma. Shang Wen was still a little unsure.
