Lu Buwei looked at Yingzheng's incredulous expression and said in a deep voice

"This matter is indeed not Mr. Ziyou's false words, the local magnates rely on the money in their hands to buy the land in the hands of the people who cannot survive, although this kind of thing is a common thing, but over time, the land in their hands is no longer a minority.

These same powerful families have been operating in the local area for generations, and their roots are deep, and their influence on the local area is also great. ”

"Why didn't anyone report this before?" Ying Zheng looked at everyone and asked.

Everyone present looked at the nose and nose, no one spoke, looking at the demeanor of everyone, Ying Zheng already understood in his heart that this kind of thing is not an exception, but a common phenomenon, land is fundamental, and there is no explicit prohibition in the Qin Law that land is not allowed to buy and sell, and the most powerful people who buy and sell land are not others, it is these who rely on military merit.

"Because these people bought land for the disposal of the local government, and the process was in accordance with the Qin law, there was nothing illegal, so the court did not pay attention." Li Si stood up to relieve Yingzheng and said, the local powerful clans and magnates buy land, as long as they are not forced to sell the local government, there is nothing to say.

Everyone knows what the disadvantages of going on like this are, but no one touches it, because this matter is a very common thing, and since Shang Jun opened Qianmo and broke the well field, this kind of thing has become more and more common. As for the fact that the local clans have deep roots and have a deep influence on the local area, they are also helpless, they have no evidence of breaking the law in the hands of the government, and they cannot sanction it.

It is easy for the court to deal with the local clans, but to act against these clans without any basis will not only undermine the Qin law, but also affect the stability of the place, and it will also be extremely harmful to the people's hearts and the credibility of the Qin court.

Ying Zheng thought for a while and figured out the truth, all their actions were running within the Qin Law, even outside the Qin Law, relying on their influence on the local area, most of them were covered up. Thinking of this, Ying Zheng opened the recital played by Qu Yi, Qu Yi about this rebellion in Shu County explained the harm of the powerful clans in these places, the guards and servants of the big clans in these places are as few as a few hundred, and as many as thousands, if they were not prepared in advance this time, once these people rebelled, they would be a force to be reckoned with.

"Isn't there a reasonable solution to this?" Ying Zheng asked in a deep voice.

For the first time, Ying Zheng felt that the Qin State, which now seems to be powerful, has actually begun to erode its foundation, and the powerful clan has begun to corrode the foundation of the Qin State from various aspects such as land, local influence, and economy.

"The strength of the powerful clan lies in their long-term management of the place, if they let them leave the place, it is a solution, but if they leave willingly, it is another problem." Li Sisuo said.

"Fame and fortune are moving, unless there are higher interests to be desired, otherwise these powerful families will not leave the place where they have been operating for many years." Han Fei said. As long as they don't suddenly get a brain disease and get dizzy, they won't leave their territory for no reason.

"Teacher, what can you do?" Ying Zheng looked at Ziyou.

Everyone also looked at Ziyou, since Ziyou raised this question, then he must have thought of a solution.

"Lile, mausoleum." Ziyou said.

After the monarch succeeded to the throne, the officials in charge of the construction of the mausoleum began to choose the site and mobilize manpower to build the mausoleum for the monarch. The root of the monarch's emphasis on the mausoleum is the ritual music, and the mausoleum was built to highlight the monarch's uniqueness and emphasize the monarch's power to rule.

When everyone heard Ziyou's words, they began to think about the connection between the mausoleum and the nobles and powerful in these places.

"Sir, do you mean that you want these local nobles to build mausoleums?" Lu Buwei asked.

"That's right."

"What if these powerful people don't want to? If they were forced to build a mausoleum, they might shake the place. Ying Zheng said with some concern.

"The mausoleum is the place where the monarch rests for a hundred years, let these powerful families build the mausoleum, and be responsible for the safety of the mausoleum, it is the king's gift to them, ordinary people want to guard the tomb for the monarch is not qualified enough, let these local magnates and magnates move their families to build and protect the mausoleum for the king, it is the king's reward to them, they can be buried outside the king's mausoleum after death, can ordinary people have this kind of glory? If they refuse, they will despise the king and be punished according to the law of Qin. ”

After speaking, a smile appeared on Ziyou's face, and Lu Buwei and the others looked at Ziyou's smile, only feeling hairy on their backs. The method proposed by Ziyou is the mausoleum system proposed by Liu Jing of the Western Han Dynasty, which is used to guard the mausoleum for the monarch to migrate the powerful and powerful families in these places. Guarding the mausoleum for the monarch is in itself the job of a courtier, not to mention that the grave after death can be buried not far from the monarch's mausoleum, which is a great reward.

The mausoleum system is also a kind of yang scheme, and these local magnates can only swallow this breath. If you refuse, you will despise the monarch, if you resist, you will rebel, and moving your army will not be vegetarian. At the beginning of the Han Dynasty, the national strength was quickly restored, the Lingyi system was indispensable, and the money, food and land left by the local magnates and powerful migrated greatly enhanced the strength of the Han Dynasty. Tax, tax is field tax, tax is poll tax. After the migration of the local Haoqiang clan, the land could be divided into the common people, and the hidden domestic servants and tenants of the Haoqiang clan were also released, thus providing strong tax support for the Han Dynasty, but unfortunately this system was abolished in the hands of Emperor Yuan of the Han Dynasty.

"Senior brother, when did you become proficient in etiquette?" Han Fei said with a smile that the foundation of the Lingyi system is etiquette, and etiquette is also the basis for maintaining the status of the powerful and powerful in these places, so they can only recognize the Lingyi system no matter what.

"Compared to my senior brother, I am a Confucian disciple." Ziyou said jokingly.

Everyone also laughed, in addition to Li Si, Han Fei also scratched his head in embarrassment, etiquette is a compulsory course for Confucian disciples, of course he and Li Si have also studied, but the focus of both of them is on learning Legalist thoughts, so naturally they did not delve into etiquette. But Han Fei didn't believe that Ziyou would study Lile, he and Li Si didn't study Lile, and Ziyou directly used Lile as a footcloth.

"But that's just a palliative, not a cure." Ying Zheng said.

The Lingyi system seems to be able to limit the local magnates, but relying on the accumulation of the family, they can quickly revive when they arrive in a new place and become local magnates again.

"They are building a mausoleum for the king, and if they only contribute and do not pay for it, they are not loyal to the king. The king is not a person who is inconsiderate of the courtiers, and it is really not the benevolence of the monarch to let him use his own money to buy the construction materials of the mausoleum, so this purchase of materials can directly allow the court to buy and transport them for free, so that the courtiers are less tired. Han Fei said with a sinister smile.

Han Fei also didn't have the slightest good impression of these local magnates and wealthy families, in the past, he lacked righteous and bright means to sanction them, but now Ziyou has provided a way, of course he has to seize an opportunity to fall into the ground, if it weren't for the fact that these people died on the road, damaging the majesty and credibility of the court, Han Fei would have thought about killing them on the road.

"In addition, it should be strictly stipulated that if they are guarding the mausoleum, they shall not leave the vicinity of the mausoleum without permission unless they have a decree from the king. If the mausoleum is in some remote areas, or places bordering the Xiongnu, as long as there are enough people, it is enough to form a city, so as to provide assistance for the stability of the frontier, which is a great achievement, and it is worthy of being remembered in history. Li Si also said with a smile.

Li Si's suggestion completely put an end to the idea of the return of these big clans, as for leaving a name in history, in a certain year of Qin Wangzheng, a certain clan migrated to Beidi County, which can be regarded as a name in history, as for whether it is good or bad in the eyes of future generations, they don't care. Good people don't leave their hometowns, and they aren't crushed by the military. Therefore, Li Si's move is even more murderous.

Ying Zheng, Lü Buwei, Wei Yi and others looked at the three of Ziyou, who were born in Confucianism, and they felt afraid for a while, Confucianism is really killing people without blinking, not only to kill you, but also to let you wipe your neck willingly, or happy.

Wei Yi, Wang Jian and Meng Wu have decided in their hearts that no one can mess with Confucianism in the future, the soft knife of Confucianism is more terrible than the hard knife, the key is that Confucianism still holds grudges, and now Confucianism is not to repay grievances with virtue, but to repay grievances with straightforwardness, and now the whole Confucianism has the meaning of incorporating great revanchism into the core. Such Confucianism cannot be provoked.

"Since everyone has no opinion, then this matter will be put on the agenda, this matter will be handed over to the Prime Minister's Mansion to be responsible for first, the Prime Minister's Mansion and Tingwei will make specific regulations out, and then promote it, and the criteria for migration will be carefully considered, as for the location of the migration, the widow's mausoleum is tentatively set as Lishan, first come up with the charter, if there is a more suitable place in the future, then modify." Ying Zheng clapped and said.

"No!" Lu Buwei and Li Si saluted.

At this time, the local powerful clans who were arrogant and domineering in the place did not know that the Qin State Imperial Court had begun to stretch out their sickles to them, ready to harvest them. The Lingyi system is aimed at the local powerful and powerful, and the reaction of the court will not be too fierce, the magnates in Xianyang are the real magnates, and the military meritorious lords who are qualified to stay in Xianyang are not haoqiang, they are wealthy families.

The danger of the Hao clan is heavier than that of the Hao Qiang, but the Qin State now needs the support of these Hao clans to evaluate the Six Kingdoms, and when the world is stable, these Hao clans do not have to deliberately do anything to them, they will run into the muzzle of the gun themselves, of course, the premise of all this is that the successor of Fusu has enough courage to deal with these military meritorious lords, this is a later story.

After the small meeting, Ziyou did not return to his Wangshi Mansion, but went straight to the Academy of Sciences.

He wanted to see how the Academy of Sciences was doing.

After Ziyou came to the Academy of Sciences, Qin Mo and Gong Loser were clearly distinguished, and some people were studying agricultural tools and water conservancy and smelting technology.

Some are constantly testing siege equipment and new types of weapons.

These people studied very carefully, and they didn't pay any attention to Ziyou's arrival.

Ziyou didn't bother them, and one of the bow and arrow tests attracted Ziyou's attention, and Ziyou stood on the periphery and watched the research inside.

A disciple of the public loser, holding a bow and crossbow in his hand, inserted a rather peculiar bow and arrow into the crossbow.

The bow and arrow arrowhead is made of fine iron, and behind the arrow is a circle of obvious jar-like objects.

With the pull of the trigger, the bow and arrow were fired, and the bow and arrow flying in mid-air gradually emitted a puff of white smoke.

At the moment when the bow and arrow collided with the target, an explosion sounded, and the target suddenly fell apart, and even the nearby target also burned.

The surrounding disciples were all shocked by this scene, but the disciple holding the bow and crossbow frowned, the power of the explosion just now was not in line with his expectations.

"How did you cause the explosion?" Ziyou's voice rang out.

The disciples of the public loser looked at Zi You, who was standing behind them, and saluted and shouted

"Sir!"

"Excuse me, who invented the bow and arrow just now?" Ziyou asked again.

The explosion just now almost made him think that the black powder had been made out in advance, but the residual smell in the air was not the smell of black powder.

"It was invented by the disciple, and the disciple went to the sea to meet Mr." The disciple of the test put down the bow and crossbow in his hand and said.

"What happened to the explosion just now?"

"Just now, the disciple was experimenting with a new type of crossbow arrow." Saying that, Gong Yihai once again brought an identical crossbow arrow and handed it to Ziyou.

"The small jar on the outside of the front end of this crossbow bolt is filled with fire oil, and in the middle of the arrow and jar in front of it there is a misplaced flint and combustible, as long as the crossbow arrow hits a person, the flint will ignite the combustible, thus igniting the fire oil." Gong Zhihai said.

Zi You dismantled the arrow, and sure enough, he saw a small device, looking at the sea in front of him, Zi You thought of the heavy crossbow similar to a steel cannon that the hundred battle armor-piercing soldiers led by Wang Li in the bright moon of the Qin Dynasty took out when they besieged Daze Mountain.

"I saw you frowning just now, what's going on?" Ziyou continued to ask.

"Mr. Hui, the damage caused by the explosion of the crossbow bolt has not yet reached the disciple's expectations, so the disciple is wondering what is wrong with it." Gong Zhihai said.

"I see, this is for you." Ziyou took out a folded piece of paper from his arms and put it in Gong Yihai's hand.

"What is this?" Gong Yihai asked suspiciously.

"A way to achieve the damage you expect." Ziyou said.

"It's good for you to see this thing yourself, even if other people want to find you for revenge, you can't show it to him, from today onwards, the South Courtyard will be used by you, tell me directly if you need anything, if you understand the research, come to me directly." Ziyou said.

Hearing Ziyou say this, Gong Yihai immediately felt that the paper in his hand was extremely heavy, this was definitely a secret among secrets.

The surrounding disciples also looked at the public loser with envy, the Southern Courtyard was the most secret place in the entire Academy of Sciences, and the people who could enter the research were all public losers and Qin Mo's high-level without exception.
