Chapter 279: The Traitor and the Faint King
Cao Fan's reform path to Qin Zheng is actually the right one, if everything goes well, relying on the accumulation of time, the infrastructure of Qin will become more and more perfect, and education can also keep up. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
However, at this time, when everything was going well, and things were often not going well, and now Shang Weiyang began to formulate a targeted policy towards Qin, which was obviously aimed at such reforms.
First of all, the Qin State wanted to attract investment and recover the land of the whole country, this routine was obvious, and the investment promotion got a large amount of tax revenue to enrich the treasury, and then used the money to requisition land like the gentry, and then carried out the tilt of rectification resources to make money in real estate.
And the first step of this plan, Shang Weiyang has begun to use the strategy of the industrial chain to target, to ensure that the investment in the Qin State is backward production capacity, which is the controllable production capacity of the Chinese Empire.
And the next second step is the real killer move, and it is also the biggest purpose of sending Zhang Zhiping to the initial Qin State this time, to negotiate satisfactorily.
This trade negotiation is somewhat similar to the free trade negotiation in the previous life, first of all, the negotiation of the types of import and export commodities, and now the three major empires are all closed to China, if it were not for the existence of merchants, the war would have broken out long ago.
However, after all, the merchants have limited things to buy, and their strength is also limited, so it is impossible to completely achieve trade docking with the Huaxia Empire, and even Li Yang, the largest merchant at present, only controls a few categories.
And this free trade negotiation is to pry open the trade barriers of the Qin State and require it to fully open up trade with the Chinese Empire, after all, in the eyes of everyone, if the Chinese Empire does not legislate to prohibit capital outflow, it is clearly letting the Qin State suck blood.
Therefore, Zhang Zhiping's envoy this time has received the attention of the entire Huaxia Empire and even all the countries on the entire Tianjing Continent.
After all, what the Qin State and the Huaxia Empire are doing now is a situation that has not been seen in thousands of years, and it can provide a template for other countries to deal with the Huaxia Empire.
After all, Zhang Zhiping's status as the premier of the State Council is already equivalent to the prime minister of the Qin State, and even Zhang Zhiping's power over Huaxia is greater than that of Qin Premier Cao Fan.
Therefore, when Zhang Zhiping arrived, the reception work had already been arranged in advance, but the most important thing was that the emperor and the cabinet discussed the purpose of Zhang Zhiping's trip.
"Ladies and gentlemen, what do you think of Huaxia sending their prime minister to our country?"
"Your Majesty, this is the majesty of our country's heavenly kingdom, and the prime minister of Huaxia sent an envoy in person, presumably to be under the majesty of my emperor and came to pay tribute. A low-ranking old power official in the cabinet patted his ass.
However, Qin Zheng didn't like it very much, the Chinese Empire subdued the Qin State?
Ran is now in the cabinet of the Shaozhuang faction, but there are still some conservative forces in the cabinet, and the conservative forces have come to the conclusion after summing up the lessons and lessons that the Shaozhuang faction will pander to the emperor's heart.
Therefore, the strategy of the old guard against Qin Zheng has changed, and it has been changed to blindly welcoming Qin Zheng, thinking that it will first obtain the leading qualification of the cabinet, so since this period of time, the old school's sycophants have not been disgusted with Qin Zheng.
At this time, all the people from the Shaozhuang faction looked at this minister, but their eyes were all stupid.
In the end, it was Cao Fan who stood up and said: "The Chinese Empire is notoriously arrogant and domineering, how can it be that it is subjugating my Great Qin? After all, Cao Fan was still young, but he refuted the views of the old school, and did not fall into the ground, but turned to his own views.
"Cao Aiqing, do you have any guesses?" Obviously, Qin Zheng still felt that Cao Fan's inference was reliable.
"Your Majesty, I'm afraid this still has to start with the new deal, my country's new deal has not yet been implemented, but once it is implemented, Chinese merchants will see the benefits of migration, which will definitely bring some damage to the Chinese Empire, so Zhang Zhiping is probably here for this matter.
The minister guessed that it was nothing more than two demands, either threatening His Majesty to stop attracting investment, or just to ask for benefits, and since the founding of the Chinese Empire, there is still its previous style, it is likely to be the second type. ”
Qin Zheng was right when he thought about it, it was impossible for the Huaxia Empire to come over and talk about developing real estate, right? Even if they wanted to, he didn't want to.
"Then according to Aiqing, what requirements will the Huaxia envoy make?"
"It is very likely that it is about the opening up of trade, otherwise it will definitely enact a strict ban on capital outflow in its domestic legislation, which is very harmful to our country's law change. I'm afraid we will have to draw our bottom line now while Zhang Zhiping has not yet come. ”
"Your Majesty, by all means, the commodities of the Chinese Empire are sharp, and a little opening up of imports will have a major impact on the livelihood of our Daqin, and I am afraid that the situation that the small people produce in a year will not be able to fight the Chinese commodities and go bankrupt. ”
When Qin Zheng and Cao Fan brought the topic to open trade, Fu Mingyi, the current leader of the old school, who had been promoted from Mingyue Academy, immediately wrote a letter asking Qin Zheng not to open up trade with the Chinese Empire.
Fu Mingyi's words are actually not unreasonable, when there were still countless vassal states in the Tianjing Continent, Shang Weiyang relied on commodity dumping to directly bankrupt small farmers in many countries, and then entered the factories of the new forces supported by Huaxia.
This historical lesson led to the three major empires blocking the trade roads of the Chinese Empire at the same time, and only some industrial transactions came and went, and private commerce was still mainly based on the development of domestic commerce.
After all, when the industrial products of the Chinese Empire began to enter the country in large quantities, its unparalleled productivity could only crush the country's craftsmen and small chambers of commerce.
In Fu Mingyi's eyes, Cao Fan at this time had already been equated as a thief, not only did the emperor sell the land of the gentry, but also did not hesitate to betray the country in order to ensure the implementation of his own law-changing policy.
It is undeniable that what Fu Mingyi said is true, but such a dilemma must always be broken, otherwise investment promotion cannot be carried out, relying on the current strength of the Qin State to carry out infrastructure construction, scientific research, and education, and do not think about surpassing the Chinese Empire in a hundred years, and then be thrown farther and farther away, and even one day, it will be annexed and destroyed by China.
Obviously, Qin Zheng also knew this, so he basically agreed with Cao Fan's opinions, and now Fu Mingyi kicked out the main contradiction, and the hall suddenly quieted down.
If the Shaozhuang faction can't come up with a way to get the best of both worlds, it will definitely have a bad reputation in the country in a short period of time, and even Qin Zheng is likely to be said by the people to be a faint king.
What Cao Fan and Qin Zheng have to do now is whether they can find a way to block the hat of the possible traitor in the future.
