Although Xiang Shaolong has great achievements, his position in the army is not irreplaceable, and the Qin State lacks literati and scholars, and the most important thing is iron-blooded generals.

But Xiang Shaolong's views on the national economy and people's livelihood are indeed far beyond others, the "economic aggression" policy of the year, the development of industry and commerce, the spread of culture, the importance of technology, and the encouragement of childbirth, so that the national strength of the Qin State in recent years has quickly distanced itself from the other five countries, and there is a great tendency to ride the dust. And his way of fighting is also different from that of other generals, he usually decides the winner outside the battlefield, and never fights hard. Although it was not difficult to win with the strength of the Qin State, he could always pay the minimum price.

King Qin was pleased: "Shaolong is benevolent and righteous, loves nurses and soldiers, and is really worthy of being the general of my Great Qin." Speaking of which, Duke Lu and Xu Xian blushed a little.

Xiang Shaolong looked at King Qin, and then at Prince Zheng, a famous tyrant in history, he decided to say a little more, hoping to change him, and said: "I was born in the mountains, grew up in the rivers and lakes, and survived from the bottom to today, although I am now powerful and powerful, I never dare to forget the helplessness in the face of power. I know very well that even the most ordinary people have fear and hatred, and I am afraid of being hated by these people, because there are too many of them, and the number of powerful people like us is too small, so many people hate so few people, then how can these few people be lucky. ”

King Qin, Prince Zheng, and the two generals were all stunned, they had never thought about the problem like this. Xia, Shang, Zhou, and even the Warring States were all wars of princes, and the Qin kings only treated them as war resources, and did not think that their resources would be against them, and it was precisely the peasant uprisings that shook the foundation of the Qin Dynasty.

Xiang Shaolong said: "Mencius also said: 'The people are precious, the community is secondary, and the monarch is light. 'The people are the foundation of the country, and I have said more than once that population is the most important resource, but if this resource is turned against us, it will be of no use to any famous generals, because their soldiers also come from these resources. The king, the boat, the people, the water, the water can carry the boat, and it can also overturn the boat. ”

Xiang Shaolong's words were mainly for Prince Zheng, because his character was the most smelly.

King Qin said: "Shaolong has been committed to the people's livelihood over the years, making my Great Qin better than in the past, the country is rich and the army is strong, and the true king is talented." ”

Xiang Shaolong said: "The king has won the award, I am just afraid all the time." I always wonder if the people of Great Qin are far richer than the other five countries, and if I continuously attract people from other countries to my Great Qin, will I be able to cut off its military resources, destroy its tax revenues, and win without a fight? ”

King Qin couldn't answer at all, this was far beyond his understanding. Every time I talk to Xiang Shaolong, it can be thought-provoking.

Prince Zheng was also pondering Xiang Shaolong's words, and Gan Luo was already thinking about what he should do if he was the prime minister.

The two generals felt that this was ruining the future of the soldiers, and there was no war, so what did they want these generals to do? They are here to make Xiang Shaolong retract his promise, don't toss them, this seems to be a nonsense decision, but he didn't expect him to tell a big truth, he seems to have a deep meaning in every decision.

Gong Qi still asked uneasily: "Then can they all be paid?" ”

This has to be accurate, if he practices thirteen tricks, saying that he doesn't practice well, he can't be a soldier, and he doesn't pay him, then he will be miserable, whether he kills them, or keeps raising them.

Xiang Shaolong didn't understand what it meant.

Qi Gong explained: "In case you say that they are not qualified, leave them alone, how do we deal with it?" ”

Xiang Shaolong asked with a smile: "Are you afraid of keeping them all the time?" ”

At this time, the Duke couldn't care about being embarrassed, and said it very bluntly.

Xiang Shaolong's mind turned, and he had a new idea, and said: "That's easy to do, if you can't be a soldier, leave it to me, and I'll take care of them." ”

King Qin was also curious, this young dragon was really a saint, and asked, "Do you know how many people you have to raise?" With the financial resources of your Wu family and Mrs. Qin, I'm afraid it will be difficult to add to this bottomless pit. ”

Xiang Shaolong said: "Let them support themselves." They are able-bodied and able to work, and women can do more. I'm going to open a textile factory and let them weave cloth, which has always been a woman's job. ”

King Qin nodded and said, "Let them weave cloth, and then take it out and sell it, but you won't starve to death." Shaolong is just building some looms, with your wealth, it's nothing. ”

Xiang Shaolong shook his head and said: "I'm doing business, what's the line of losing money?" They are only responsible for weaving for wages, and I am responsible for selling. ”

King Qin thought it was charity, but he didn't expect it to be business again, this young dragon really lost money, and scolded with a smile: "You know money." ”

Xiang Shaolong thought about it again, and felt that it was still too troublesome to sell cloth, so he said again: "Otherwise, my cloth is produced in large quantities, and my Wushi Ranch produces wool, and can provide raw materials, the price must be cheaper, but the quantity is too large, and it is troublesome to sell, I will open a garment factory to supply our standard military uniforms, and I will give you a discount if you buy my military uniforms." ”

King Qin was stunned for a moment, laughed, pointed at Xiang Shaolong, and said, "You have done all the business to the widow's head." ”

Xiang Shaolong said: "I'm mainly afraid of trouble. I built all the factories around the pastures, the upstream is the pasture to provide raw materials, the midstream textile mill to weave, and the downstream garment factory to make clothes, which is already a relatively complete industrial chain. Slaughterhouses can also be built around the pasture, in short, industries related to these factories can be built around this area to form an industrial park. With the growth of population and the increase of income, it can also be attached to the development of catering, entertainment, housing, markets and other convenient services, which may be more prosperous than in Xianyang City in the future. ”

Once again, they were calmed by Xiang Shaolong's thoughts.

Xiang Shaolong looked at them dumbfounded, beaming proudly, and said, "If the king and the two generals are interested, they can also participate in it." ”

King Zhuang Xiang asked, "What do you mean?" ”

Xiang Shaolong said: "That's what you do, you need to invest in the early stage, let's invest proportionally, and if you make money, you will share the money proportionally." This is a company limited by shares, and we are all shareholders. ”

Can you still do this, King Qin asked, "Wouldn't that take away your money?" ”

Xiang Shaolong explained: "The money in the world is endless, and everyone earns money." Of course, I can afford the upfront investment on my own, but what if I'm a person with no capital, only ideas? Then I have to absorb the spare money in the society, help me make money, and after I earn the money, I will distribute it to those who invest money, everyone is profitable, this is called financing. "I can only say this, it is too difficult to issue shares in this era, so I won't talk about it.

Another purpose of Xiang Shaolong's concession is to bundle interests and create an interest group, but he didn't dare to say it in front of King Qin.

King Qin was thinking about the impact of this model on society, and the two old generals thought much simpler: this is Xiang Shaolong sending money to himself.

With Xiang Shaolong's ability, he said that if he makes money, he will definitely be able to make money, so he nodded and agreed, a little embarrassed, this is obviously robbing Xiang Shaolong's money. has the heart to refuse, but is reluctant, no matter how old-fashioned the old general is, he knows that money is a good thing, and there is no one who doesn't love money, not to mention that this is proposed by Xiang Shaolong himself.

King Qin said: "At first, I thought that Shaolong was the best at fighting, and later I thought that Shaolong was the best at being the prime minister, but now it seems that Shaolong is the best at making money!" When it comes to making money, there is no one in the world who is Shaolong's opponent. ”

Xiang Shaolong said: "The world is bustling, all for profit, the world is bustling, all for profit." Having a full stomach is fundamental. I have earned countless wealth through business, which can provide me with endless luxury life, then when I am an official, I will not embezzle or accept bribes for money, no one can buy me with money, I can do things for the king wholeheartedly, because I have lived the best life. And when the people are rich and will not go hungry, the society will be stable, and I don't have to worry that they will hold a grudge against me, and I can enjoy my aristocratic life with peace of mind. The nobles should most hope that the world will be peaceful, so that they can enjoy the people's offerings with peace of mind and live a life of purple and gold. My dream is to sleep until I wake up naturally, count the money until my hands cramp. ”

Everyone laughed, King Qin glanced at Xiang Shaolong deeply, Xiang Shaolong once again turned the topic back to the issue of people's livelihood without leaving a trace, recalling the dialogue with Xiang Shaolong over the years, it seems that the most is not how to destroy the Six Kingdoms, although he always talks about destroying the Six Kingdoms, but what he pays the most energy is to improve the people's livelihood.

King Qin held his own identity and had no intention of cooperating with Xiang Shaolong to make money, but the two generals did not stand the temptation and decided to join the shares.

Xiang Shaolong doesn't have to worry about how to participate in shares, he has a special person responsible for financial management. Xiang Shaolong's purpose in this matter is not to make money, he will give more profits to the two generals, and the main purpose is to find allies.

The training ground was not set up in the barracks, but a vacant lot was found around the pasture outside Xianyang City. Xiang Shaolong still thinks it's better not to be with male soldiers, and the instructor is also a female soldier from the pasture.

Wushi Ranch has adopted orphans for many years, both men and women, and has long had a group of elite female warriors.

Xianyang City is busy in full swing, and everyone is looking forward to what the first female soldier in history will look like.

Yingying and their group of proud women of the sky put all their energy into military training, and they no longer went to trouble the sons and daughters of Xianyang City, and everyone was relieved, but people like Guan Zhongxie who wanted to cling to these noble girls were very disappointed in their hearts.

Xiang Shaolong sat at home, holding an invitation card in his hand, Lu Buwei married his daughter, and his son-in-law was in charge of the evil.

It seems that Guan Zhongyi has given up Pang Yingying's thoughts, and he is going to be completely tied to Lü Buwei.

No matter what the relationship between Xiang Shaolong and Lu Buwei is, the superficial work still has to be done, and this wedding must be present.
