Hearing that Qingji had the idea of banning the fiefdom of the Minister of Wu, the seven ministers present including Ji Za, Sun Ping, Ji Ran, and Fan Li couldn't help but be startled, and their faces were full of horror.

Fan Li followed: "King, what Dazai said is very true. It is easier to divide the old feudal system, and to ban the power of ministers and doctors, such as military recruitment and governance, must not be in a hurry! ”

"I, Wu Guoshi, have just settled down, and we must not regenerate civil strife and waste national strength in vain!"

"The minister seconded the proposal!"

Sun Ping, Ji Ran, and Sun Wu all agreed.

Only the pawn Bo Yan and the next doctor Wu Zixu were jealous of Qingji, and it was inconvenient to speak out, so they kept silent and silent!

"Okay, then only implement the county system, and when the time is ripe in the future, we will ban the sub-feudal system again. But there is one thing that cannot be argued! ”

Qingji said word by word: "After the establishment of the county system, the secretaries and doctors of all localities need to respect the county order and cooperate with the governance of local government affairs, or they must not interfere in local government affairs!" ”

"Violators will be severely punished!"

"The king is wise!"

Seeing that Qingji did not adhere to the sub-feudal system of the state of Wu and deprived the ministers and doctors of various places, the ministers breathed a sigh of relief and secretly sweated.

If Qingji insists on doing it, it is estimated that it can really be done!

It's just that Wu may have serious internal friction because of this, and even a riot among the countrymen.

Of course, Qingji doesn't care too much about this.

After all, he has now mastered the power, life and death, who dares to touch Qingji's mold?

However, Qingji knows that he can't become a fat man by eating a bite, and boiled frogs in warm water.

So he doesn't have to rush for a while!

Forcing ministers and doctors everywhere to rebel is always unfavorable to the country!

"Is there any other way to govern the country for the second and third sons?"

Qingji looked around, and then asked.

"The king, the minister thinks that the salt and iron monopoly in the Guan Zhong Reform Law can still be used as a reference for my Wu Kingdom!"

The right prime minister said slowly: "Guan Zi said: 'Only the official mountains and seas are ears'." Its tax is in price, that is, the tax is hidden in the commercial goods, so that people unknowingly, pay taxes for the country, and their hearts are not very resistant! ”

"As for the resources of mountains and seas, the state can monopolize them, and iron ore is produced in the mountains, and sea salt is produced in the sea, which is a monopoly system for salt and iron."

"Such a salt and iron franchise will definitely create huge profits for my Wu country!"

"Good!"

Qingji agreed.

For this kind of salt and iron monopoly policy of governing the country, Qingji must be implemented!

The so-called monopoly of salt and iron is to control the ownership of resources, and then delegate the management rights to private businessmen and distribute profits in a certain proportion.

This is the prototype of "state-owned assets and contracted management" that was very popular in later generations!

The importance of salt and iron is self-evident.

For example, after the reform of the law of the state of Qi, its fiscal revenue over the years was composed of tax revenue and monopoly income, and the realization of the latter was achieved through the control of strategic and essential materials for people's livelihood in the form of monopoly and monopoly.

"In addition, the minister also thinks that thrift hurts things, if the second and third sons all advocate thrift and do not consume money, it will inevitably cause a decrease in the circulation of goods, thereby hindering production and profit, so it is called 'hurting'!"

"Therefore, the king should set an example and encourage the people to consume in order to circulate and market."

Valley frequency

Hearing this, Qingji hesitated.

Dazai Jiza, who was sitting on the side, couldn't help frowning, and said dissatisfiedly: "Why did the right prime minister say this? ”

"Throughout the ages, virtuous monarchs with virtuous styles have practiced frugality and encouraged the people to open up sources and reduce expenditures.

"If you are only thrifty, you will be hurt, and you will not be able to convince people!"

Obviously, Ji Za is not convinced by the argument that "thrift hurts things".

Because in the eyes of a gentleman like Ji Za with an ancient legacy, a truly virtuous monarch should lead by example and practice frugality, so that he can follow suit and let the people follow suit and accumulate enough wealth for the country.

However, Ji Ran dares to say this kind of argument, which naturally has its reason!

At this moment, Ji Ran smiled slightly and said, "Dazai, this is not a fallacy. I wonder if Dazai knows a truth? ”

"Whenever the year is fierce and the people have no business to do, the state should carry out the construction of palaces and pavilions to promote the employment of the Lishu, especially the destitute who are almost bankrupt."

"At that time, the palace was built not for pleasure, but to promote employment, balance all parties, and help the country through the world!"

"This ......"

Jiza was silent.

Ji Ran said this truth, in fact, as long as you think about it with your brain, you can get a glimpse of the leopard in the tube!

Ji Ran is just like the Guan Zhong of the past.

He affirms pleasure and opposes thrift!

Guan Zhong attaches great importance to circulation and opposes despising business, and he advocates full employment and opposes negative relief.

In order to be able to be fully employed, Guan Zhong advocates mass consumption and even advocates thick burials!

His focus was on the aspect where mass consumption could promote mass production.

Therefore, he said very little, almost none, how to carry out production and how to improve technology!

As a time-traveler, Qingji, who comes from the 21st century, knows very well that this kind of practice of stimulating economic recovery and promoting employment through the country's fixed asset investment has only been learned by Westerners more than 2,000 years later.

It can be seen that this practice of encouraging consumption is actually very advanced!

Besides, it is really difficult to make Qingji like an ascetic, with coarse tea and light food every day, wearing simple clothes, and practicing frugality.

A monarch who can truly be diligent and thrifty may be a generation of Ming monarchs, such as Emperor Wen of Sui in history, Emperor Wen of Han Liu Heng, Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang of the Ming Dynasty and so on.

However, there are exceptions!

For example, Emperor Daoguang, he was keen to wear patched clothes, he was reluctant to eat eggs because they were expensive, and he didn't take the royal ceremony to worship the sky, and the queen only used a bowl of lo noodles to entertain everyone on her birthday......

In this way, I am afraid that the word frugality cannot afford it, and perhaps it is more appropriate to say that it is stingy!

Rao is like this, Daoguang has not been able to make a difference, and has passively become a faint king!

In fact, not only is he not faint, but he is also extremely national, and he is not willing to spend a penny more on the country.

Qingji said again: "Second and third sons, we have already negotiated nine decrees to change the law. Article 10 is set to encourage the population to have children, how to encourage, and ask the second and third sons to express their opinions! ”

In Qingji's mind, there are actually many laws and regulations that have not been brought out.

However, Qingji knows that you can't become a fat person by eating in one bite, you have to take your time in everything, and don't rush it!

In particular, the slightest carelessness in the implementation of such a major matter as the reform of the law will lead to chaos in the domestic situation.

For this reason, he had to step by step, temporarily set a decree on the reform of the ten laws, see the effect, and then gradually implement it in the future to carry out the second change!
