Chapter 299: Divergent Opinions (Part II)

Salt and iron monopoly?

Han Kui thought about it, he had also come into contact with this doctrine, it was in the Jixia School Palace of Qi State, the "Guanshan Hai" doctrine of the first generation of the Qi State of Guanzi, that is, the imperial court controlled the benefits of the mountains and Ze, and also implemented the monopoly of salt and iron. The products of the mountains and seas are mainly salt and iron, and the government monopolizes the operation, and taxes are used at a price, so that the people cannot avoid taxation and do not feel taxation.

γ€ŽIsn't it another talented person from the Jixia Academy...... However, the matter of Wuguan salt refining has not yet been spread, and the monopoly of salt and iron is only feasible in Qi Guoxing, but it should be difficult to implement in Daqin...... This scholar may be a false pipe, mixed with some of his own opinions, to implement this policy in Great Qin. γ€—

Han Kui guessed like this, that is, to sweep down the text of this policy, this policy does not pay attention to the writing, not even the most basic polishing penmanship, and the core sentences are just listed some familiarity.

"There are two million people in the four counties of Qin, and a people eat at least ten catties of salt every year, so that the salt and grain are equivalent, and they can pay an extra 200,000 stone of grain at the age of one year, and in the same way, they can sell salt to Jing, Han, Zheng or Rongdi, and even Ji Zhou Wangji, tens of millions of people, which is millions of stone grain!"

A simple line of text, but it is extremely attractive, tens of millions of people, millions of stone grain, salt is so, but iron is more precious than salt.

Han Kui opened his mouth and asked, "Whose strategy is this?" ”

Su Ke replied: "It's a scholar of Great Qin, and his name is Han Yan!" ”

"Han Yan?" Han Kui never forgot it, naturally he knew that Lin Yuyan was named Han Yan in Wuguan, and he felt that this strategy was a bit similar to Gongzi Yan's point of view, but now the mystery has finally been revealed, and this policy must be from Gongzi Yan!

Han Kui, who had already guessed that Han Yan was Gongzi Yan, naturally waited with a smile, Feng Jian's purging of officials, Fan Xuan's engraved Ding Chengwen, and this Gongzi Yan's unique salt and iron monopoly already announced that this Great Qin recruitment had reached its true purpose, and it was precisely because of this that Han Kui relaxed and was not in a hurry to dedicate the existing few outstanding strategies to Duke Qin......

"Give me all the excellent advice, and I want to see if others have any more excellent speeches!" Han Kui sat down and slowly waited for the arrival of the new strategy.

Sure enough, not long after, some people praised the strategy: "This is the water conservancy method offered by the Korean Fang Chi!" ”

Lin Yuyan glanced at it, this Fang Chi dedicated the method of water conservancy to Daqin, naturally he is very familiar with water conservancy, and put forward his own suggestions for Daqin's current construction of water conservancy, that is, to dredge the water, and connect the water with the Han water, which is also a prescient opinion, it seems that Lin Yuyan or Han Kui also have this idea, but Fang Chi has already put forward a detailed plan, and even wants to borrow such a waterway to completely cause the city group gathered on both sides of the water and the Han water.

This kind of practice can be regarded as a national policy, but the manpower cost such a national policy is simply immeasurable, according to the degree to which Great Qin will now prepare for war, it is already extremely difficult to achieve one-tenth of it!

"Fang Chi ......" Han Kui muttered, as if he wanted something to be afraid of, and his face was a little worried.

"Han Xiang, the policy written by this Korean is really a bit labor-intensive, but it is also a national policy, and it should be able to be tried!" Baili Huai on the side also saw this Fang Chi's water conservancy method and issued his own opinions.

Han Kui nodded and said, "This person can be used but must not be reused, such a tired Great Qin's national policy is really a bit ill-intentioned in the current era of war and strife......"

Baili Huai didn't expect this layer, and after being reminded by Han Kui, he instantly woke up and said, "Could it be ...... Is this Fang Chi a fine work of the Koreans? ”

Han Kui shook his head and said: "Just by virtue of a strategy, it is not possible to be sure, but it is also the responsibility of the subordinates to warn the king, this water conservancy method proposed by Fang Chi can be used, but it cannot be reused!" ”

Baili Huai nodded, and then another courtier's doorman presented a piece of paper, and said: "This is the method of naval army drills offered by Wu Kang, a native of Chu State, which can help a certain Great Qin train an elite naval army, and the old general Ju has already seen it, and he is very praised!" ”

"Chu Guowu Clan?" Han Kui also knew the status of the Wu family in the Chu State, and it was the surname under the three Lu of the Chu State, but more than ten years ago, the Wu branch of the Wu family living in Shouying was the Yi clan of the Chu Wang, and the side branch of the Wu family declined.

In the state of Chu, ordinary people do not have a surname, the commoners of the state of Chu are no different from the slaves of the Central Plains, especially the surnames of the nobles of the state of Chu can not be used casually, if someone uses the surname of the noble, it is inevitable to be killed, and the government of the state of Chu will not ask about this matter.

Han Kui said: "Since General Ju has already seen it, he recommended Wu Kang to Junshang. ”

The doorman also said: "Among the princes and scholars this time, there are many excellent candidates with 500 generals in the army, although they are not brilliant in terms of strategy, but it can be seen that they can lead the troops!" ”

Han Kui nodded and said, "Please also ask the old general Ju to draw up a list, and Kui Zi should present it to the king!" ”

After a while, all the theories of the family were all courtiers who came to discuss the policy, and they all watched Han Kuiyu's report.

"This is Cai Ren's criminal name strategy, and it is set to be middle and upper-class!"

Han Kui glanced at it and said, "It's okay, you can use it for the court." ”

Another courtier stepped forward: "This is the method of intensive cultivation offered by Xu Mang of Shu State, which is inherited from the farmer's learning, and can be used." ”

"However, the system of Shanglin Yuan also needs to be implemented, and this Xu Mang can be used!"

"The ...... of Meng Jin, the son of the Qin State"

The latter few policy treatises are not as good as those offered by Feng Jian and Fan Xuan, but they are also the essence of middle and upper class doctrines.

About half an hour later, Han Kui entered the Xuanzheng Hall of the New Qin Palace with dozens of strategies, Qin Chengcheng looked around at the layout of the Xuanzheng Palace, although it had been in for several hours, but it was still very novel.

Hearing the echo of footsteps, Duke Qin also turned around and smiled: "It's Han Qing who is here, come and take a look at this new Qin Palace, I see that the sixth son has done a very good job this time!" ”

Han Kui also glanced around, the layout of this new Qin Palace is indeed novel, just the surrounding palace walls, it seems to have added inexplicable spices, it is not rich, but it is heartwarming.

Han Kui still returned to the topic and said: "Your Majesty, this time the Great Qin recruits talents, and a total of thirty-two princes and scholars have been shortlisted for the king's proofreading, this is their strategy. ”

"These things are not as good as Han Qing, you might as well leave them all to Han Qing to deal with, you can rest assured that you are lonely......"
