Chapter 10: Chongzhen wants to change the law

A festival directly leads to the emergence of an industrial chain, which is a cultural festival.

The cultural festival was held for 10 days, and the next day, Zhang Hongbin personally awarded gold, silver and bronze medals to the economic winners of each project. But in the past ten days or so, he only listened to the detailed reports and did not go to see them in person. At least, most of the time he was at work and didn't have time to look at it.

This is a trust in Haruka's ability, and at the same time, because the entire conference has a perfect operating rule, so that the conference can be carried out in an orderly and fair manner.

After the conference, those who are interested can stay, and those who are not interested can also return to their hometowns with bonuses or participation in consolation bonuses. But after seeing and hearing about it this time, their thoughts were more or less affected, but they may not know it yet.

As long as such a grand event is held more than 10 times, the thinking of the participating scholars will inevitably change greatly.

Everyone is not stupid, they also think. Those who seek to maximize the interests of the class the most may be content with the status quo, but those who are interested in making the country rich and the people strong will think deeply about the great Qin, and then compare it with the local situation. When the time comes, if you can't get used to it, you will be dissatisfied in your heart, and if you are dissatisfied in your heart, you will shout out, and then lead a new trend of thought and have an impact on society.

Even if they fail, they can still come to Daqin in the end, whether it is a civil service or a writer, it is a good job.

And Daqin also happened to use guò this way to absorb a group of officials who are truly talented and truly willing to serve the country and the people, which can be described as a real win-win situation.

At the same time, these scholars who returned to their hometowns also brought back some of Daqin's eating habits. At least some of them will start to get used to eating bugs, such as centipedes, scorpions, locusts, etc. Their eating habits will affect their families, then their relatives and friends, and finally spread it in dots. There are a lot of businessmen in Jiangnan who are used to dragon liver and phoenix marrow, and something new can naturally attract their attention.

At that time, if a trend can be formed, then farmers in Shaanxi and Shanxi can sell the insects at a good price. With money, even if nothing can be grown in the fields, they will not starve to death, and they will even be richer than when they farmed. Until the Xiaoice era slowly receded, the land began to recover, the rain began to abundant, and most of these lands began to be controlled by the state, and when the time came to open a large state-run farm, it was a good project to get rich.

The most important point is that after this exchange meeting, cultural people from both the north and the south have carried out an in-depth cultural exchange activity. The cultural elements of Shaanxi and Shanxi can get a chance to recharge, and the people benefit the most, after this cultural festival, many good works are vying to be the first to be born, so that they are dizzying. Many of them have spare money, and the price of books is not too expensive, so they can buy some and go back to see when they have nothing to do, so that they can rest after a busy day.

The people have something to do, and the author has money to make, so there will be no crankiness. For a country, this is the real stability.

Subsequently, before the winter, Zhang Hongbin announced that Chang'an would become the cultural capital of Daqin, and in the coming year, a certain amount of money would be allocated to create a cultural capital.

As for Taiyuan, Shanxi, it is the industrial capital of Daqin. In other words, in the near future, all heavy industry workshops will be relocated to Taiyuan. Among them, it naturally also includes the Daqin Arsenal. Zhang Hongbin has also considered this arrangement in depth, mainly because Shanxi has rich coal mines, and at the same time, iron ore is also relatively rich, so in Shanxi to engage in heavy industry, the transportation cost of raw materials can be reduced by at least about 30%, and the highest can reach 50%. The reduction of transportation costs also means that the cost of products is reduced, so that the selling price can also be appropriately reduced, so that the products of the factory can be enjoyed by more people.

Besides, heavy factories are highly polluting enterprises, and it is a sin to put them in Chang'an, the thousand-year-old capital.

As for Zhang Hongbin's arrangement, since Liu Ru had already listed detailed numbers and arguments, the parliament had to admit that this arrangement was the most reasonable after discussion. Besides, most of them live in Chang'an, and naturally they don't want to live in a polluted city. Whether it's for yourself or your family, you should do it. Although, in these days, everyone has no concept of pollution......

Great Qin has now become the vane of China, and its every move has been followed by all forces.

Not only the Houjin, but also the major separatist forces in the south, and even the Ming Dynasty, which had just conquered Henan.

Even if black powder is used, the combat effectiveness of the Ming soldiers is still beyond doubt. With the cooperation of advanced artillery and muskets, Henan also resisted for a while and then completely fell. After the defeat of Li Zicheng, the king of Chuang who was divided here, he wanted to accept Zhao'an again, but who knew that the Ming Dynasty was unusually tough, so that he had to give up Henan Province and flee into the Huguang area where Cao Cao and Lao Hui were divided.

Cao Cao was the wisest person who knew how to unite the most among all the rebels. He understands very well that only when the rebels are united can they fight the Ming Dynasty. However, Daqin doesn't take the lead, and Wang Jiayin is dead, so if you want to unite the rebels now, I'm afraid it's not so easy. At least Zhang Xianzhong of Guizhou and his neighbor's Lao Hui are not good people, let alone Li Zicheng, the king of Chuang, who has just come to his own territory.

Li Zicheng came to his own territory, and it was said that Cao Cao wanted to find a way to get rid of it, but out of other plans, Cao Cao arranged for several counties close to Lao Huihui's territory to give him land, but there was a little bit of Liu Biao's intention to settle Liu Bei.

Li Zicheng has to acquiesce no matter whether he is happy or not.

As for the Ming Dynasty in Henan, while taking over the work in full swing, Chongzhen, who was originally in the capital of Beizhili, was also watching the details and results of the Daqin Cultural Exchange Conference. Of course, Li Luo had to explain to him in detail, after all, his thinking still had high limitations, and he was far less able to understand and understand than Li Luo, who had been influenced by Great Qin.

"The pseudo-Qin is getting stronger and stronger, and this time their cultural exchange meeting not only made a lot of money, but also grabbed the hearts of many scholars. The commanding heights of public opinion in this world are largely in the hands of these scholars, so with their help to speak, it will be much easier for the puppet Qin to fight abroad. Moreover, the pseudo-Qin held a cultural exchange meeting, showing that its ruler Zhang Hongbin also looked at Chinese affairs, and the pseudo-Qin style of learning began to become stronger. In the long run, the puppet Qin will not lack talents to govern the world for him, and there will be no shortage of those pawns who praise his offensive merits and license public opinion. Li Luo analyzed for Chongzhen.

"First the most powerful firearms, then the complicated but very reasonable political system, and finally the guidance of the literary style, the pseudo-Qin is indeed getting stronger step by step. Recently, I have always felt that our Daming is indeed becoming stronger step by step, but the speed of strength is unusually slow, I don't know if Aiqing knows the key? Chongzhen asked eagerly.

"Actually, this is very simple, nothing more than the word system. Taizu established the most basic system of the Ming Dynasty, and Chengzu felt that it was not in his interests, so he revised it once. In fact, today's cabinet, Taizu was not created, so he insisted on counting, Chengzu directly modified the ancestral law, is it considered an unfilial person? Li Luo said this boldly, and ordinary people who dared to say it could be dragged out and cut down.

"Are you saying that the pseudo-Qin system is more in line with today's needs?" Chongzhen didn't mean to blame.

"Yes, especially their regulatory system, as well as the scientific research system. The former can effectively avoid corruption, and the latter can truly recruit talented people to govern the party, and at the same time facilitate the development of the former. The various departments they set up also divided the power of the county, and the biggest advantage is to let the county concentrate on what they should do, instead of asking about everything, and in the end, the bamboo basket will be empty. Li Luo replied solemnly.

"Listening to you say that, it does make a lot of sense...... But this Yulu ...... "Chongzhen is embarrassed."

In fact, he didn't know that the life had been tight over the years, making him more or less like Scrooge's evolution.

"Actually, it's nothing, just change the tax system. Daqin's tax system was dominated by commercial taxes, which in turn reduced the proportion of agricultural taxes...... Therefore, the main income of the Qin State came from commercial taxes. Relying only on commercial taxes, the annual tax revenue of a province is equivalent to half of the tax revenue of my Ming Dynasty, which is really ironic. Li Luo explained the tax system of the Qin State to Chongzhen in detail, and finally sighed.

"Aiqing's meaning, it seems that he is inclined to change the law?" Chongzhen heard a little taste.

"It's not a tendency, it's an advocate for changing the law. If the Ming Dynasty does not change the law, the development will enter a bottleneck, and in the end it will definitely not be able to keep up with the pace of the puppet Qin. Not to mention, surpass it one day. Li Luo said very sincerely.

"Give me a break, I'll take a look at it with the ministers of the cabinet, and if you can, change the law!" Chongzhen has already made up his mind to gamble once.

In fact, the previous gambling victory made him also change in the direction of a gambler, but he didn't realize it yet.

The changes of the past dynasties are accompanied by risks, and I really don't know what kind of changes will happen to the changes of the Ming Dynasty in the end......
