Chapter 206: Zhao Ying: Pry open a crack again!
After reading it, the two lowered their heads and muttered for a long time, glanced at each other, and then Li Si stepped forward and bowed.
"Weichen thinks that Li eats his words, there is indeed merit, if this negotiation weakens the Xiongnu too much, it is very likely that Donghu will take the opportunity to annex the entire Xiongnu and completely unify the north, which is not good for my Great Qin."
Meng Yi also bowed.
Weichen seconded. Properly preserving the strength of the Xiongnu and making it a barrier between our Great Qin and Donghu is currently more beneficial than disadvantageous to our Great Qin. ”
The First Emperor nodded slightly when he heard this.
"However, the two of you will take the lead and draw up a specific charter as soon as possible and hand it over......"
Speaking of this, the First Emperor's tone paused slightly, and then he said lightly.
"But the emperor's eldest grandson has four divisions, including Pu, Jimo, Khotan and Tu, and they cannot be retreated, this is the bottom line......"
These four tribes can not only echo Wuwei from afar, but also are in the upper reaches of the Shiyang River, and defending these four tribes is equivalent to choking the throat of the Xiongnu.
Advance can be attacked, retreat can be defended, and the initiative is firmly grasped.
The meaning of the First Emperor is obvious, I can not fight you, but I want to reserve the advantage of hitting you at any time.
Li Si and Meng Yi promised in a deep voice, and at this point, these officials of Great Qin have always maintained a high degree of unanimity.
Da Qin was experienced in putting forward conditions for negotiation, and the next day, Li Si and Meng Yi came up with a very detailed negotiation plan.
The First Emperor took it, looked at it carefully, and then naturally handed it to Zhao Ying on the side.
"Look, is there anything missing or that needs to be added......
Zhao Ying also took it very naturally, nodded slightly at Li Si and Meng Yi, and then looked at it carefully. Meng Yi and Li Si replied very tacitly and did not say anything.
The negotiation plan was obviously much friendlier than the previous one, and with the exception of the very resolute non-return of the proposals, which were very resolute in not returning, the others were relatively lenient.
It will weaken the strength of the Xiongnu, but it will not break the muscles and bones.
The scale is very accurate.
"Good! Zuo Xiang and Meng Shangqing's plan is already very complete......"
After Zhao Ying read it, he couldn't help but show a smile, and praised it sincerely, Li Si and Meng Yi heard this, and they were just about to give their hands to pay tribute.
I heard Zhao Ying say with a smile.
"The Xiongnu and my Great Qin, the land is divided into north and south, the situation is very different, there are quite a lot of similarities and complementarities, since we have decided to support the Xiongnu, in order to contain the Donghu, why not take this opportunity, on the border of the two places, to start a field, in order to pass through the ......."
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the hall suddenly froze.
Li Si frowned, Meng Yi looked surprised, a trace of melancholy flashed in his black eyes, and even the First Emperor looked at Zhao Ying without saying a word, obviously waiting for Zhao Ying's explanation.
Daqin, like the feudal dynasties of previous dynasties, has always pursued a policy of emphasizing agriculture and suppressing commerce.
Moreover, compared with other feudal dynasties, the attitude towards merchants was particularly harsh.
It is not only necessary to be admitted to the city, impose heavy taxes, and impose all kinds of restrictions, but also set up special market supervisors to carry out strict market supervision and control over the business behavior of businessmen, put an end to all business practices that are short of pounds and shortages, and do not stress good faith, and also require all commodities to be clearly marked with prices, so as to squeeze the profit margins of businessmen extremely low.
The most serious thing is that once a merchant goes bankrupt, he will be taken into official slavery.
If you fight a war or something, you have to recruit them first.
As a result, many people had to give up their plans to do business and obediently go home to farm.
Therefore, although the Qin Dynasty's industry, commerce and manufacturing industry were the largest among the six countries, they were always under the control of the government, and almost all transactions, especially salt and iron, grain, and lacquer gardens, were under official control.
The goal is clear, it is to encourage farming!
This is a basic national policy that brooks no wavering.
Therefore, when His Royal Highness, the eldest grandson of the emperor, who was deeply favored by the First Emperor, suddenly made this suggestion, he was cold on the spot. Everyone subconsciously looked at the First Emperor.
Zhao Ying naturally knows the sensitivity of this topic, but for him, this is an excellent opportunity.
In this era when eating is a problem, he did not go against the trend of history and advocate the commodity economy in this era, but the current state of extreme contraction of the commodity economy is definitely not conducive to the current situation of Daqin.
The most serious thing is that it has caused an extremely serious separation with those nobles and powerful people in the land of the Six Kingdoms of Shandong.
The Six Kingdoms of Shandong, although they also emphasize agriculture and suppress commerce, are not so strict, including some nobles and local tycoons, because they occupy a lot of social resources, and many people are running their own workshops and shops.
Earn money every day.
While maintaining their luxurious life, it has also released a part of their productivity.
After the first emperor unified the world, he gathered the world's richest people in Xianyang——
For these people, it is almost a catastrophe.
In addition, Daqin's policy in Guanzhong was forcibly pushed to the whole country, which dealt a fatal blow to these people who grabbed wealth by doing business.
On the one hand, surplus goods are accumulated in their own workshops and granges, and on the other hand, excess productivity cannot be released normally.
This situation made the six states of Shandong, which were already more hostile to the Great Qin, even more resistant and hostile to the system of the Qin Dynasty.
Therefore, after the death of the First Emperor, this suppressed mood began to bottom out, and quickly set off a wave of anti-Qin. If you smash other people's jobs, of course they will dig your old roots......
Zhao Ying knows this.
He had the heart to make some appropriate adjustments, but the time had not yet come, and he didn't dare to say-
But today, it's a great opportunity.
Therefore, although his reaction to the people in the main hall was insightful, he was not flustered in his heart, after all, this scene had been simulated countless times in his heart.
He looked at the First Emperor happily, and his voice was natural and authentic.
"The border field, unlike my Great Qinjia City, the Xiongnu land is barren, and the owners are only cattle, horses and furs, but these three are all needed by my Great Qin - horses, which can enrich the army and let my Great Qin have tens of thousands of cavalry; Cattle can alleviate the lack of human resources and help us reclaim more land and grow more food......"
Hearing this, the First Emperor's eyes couldn't help but light up, and Li Si and Meng Yi couldn't help but show thoughtful looks.
This statement is too tempting.
Great Qin cultivated and fought to establish a country.
By opening a farm, we can increase our combat effectiveness and expand farming......
So, is this still an encouragement for business?
This is clearly for the benefit of my Great Qin!
Seeing this, Zhao Ying knew that his words had aroused the thoughts of the three of them, and his heart became more and more calm, and his thoughts became clearer.
"As for fur, in addition to things that can be used to make armor and shields, you can also make things to keep out the cold for my Great Qin soldiers......"
"If it is as His Highness said, this move is indeed feasible, but will the Huns agree?"
As soon as Meng Yi said this, Li Si and the First Emperor couldn't help but look over.
They didn't even realize that they had already gone from whether they could open a field at this time to what to do if the Huns did not agree to set up a field.
Zhao Ying said with a smile.
"Why don't they agree - they are in the cold land of Mobei, they don't lack food and clothing, don't talk about salt and iron, and even cooking utensils are extremely lacking......"
Speaking of this, Zhao Ying looked around at everyone.
"When the time comes, we only need to pay a little insignificant items in exchange for the scarce items such as cattle, horses, horses and wool that we continue to have, why not ......"
Unconsciously, a smile appeared on the face of the First Emperor.
At the beginning, he was really afraid that his grandson, who was very important, would be whimsical, value the interests of businessmen, and do stupid things that would shake the country's foundation.
Is this an encouragement for business?
No!
This is the plank road of the bright repair, and the darkness of the Chen Cang!
Well, there is no word yet, but that's what it means.
This kid, this is clearly under the banner of doing business, and he is developing and encouraging farming.
"Good! The talent of my grandson can govern a country! ”
The First Emperor couldn't help but laugh.
If your grandson is like this, what more can you ask for!
Li Si couldn't help but move his eyelids, subconsciously glanced at the indifferent emperor's eldest grandson, and lowered his eyes silently, while Meng Yi smiled and arched his hand at Zhao Ying.
"The talent of the emperor's eldest grandson is beyond the reach of the ministers......"
Zhao Ying smiled and arched his hand.
"Shangqing praised it, I just mentioned it casually, if you really want to implement it, you still need to rely on the ministers, strategize, and carefully refer to ......"
Until this time, he had been pinching a handful of cold sweat for Zhao Ying, and then he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and looked at Zhao Ying's eyes more and more appreciatively. He has followed the First Emperor for decades, and has seen countless talents, but no one can reach the emperor's eldest grandson.
It is really the luck of His Majesty, the luck of Daqin!
With consensus, the rest of the questions are simple.
Zhao Ying took the liberty of drawing a circle on the map of the Great Qin border.
Looking at the location drawn by Zhao Ying, the First Emperor, Li Si, Meng Yi and others couldn't help but admire.
"Your Highness has a unique vision, and there is great goodness here!"
Li Si couldn't help but show a look of surprise.
This eldest grandson of the emperor, who is only sixteen years old, has an excellent ability to govern the country, even if the eldest son Fusu of the year is probably not able to reach it. No wonder Your Majesty is so fond of this!
In time, it will become a great thing.
The location drawn by Zhao Ying is at the junction of the Xiongnu, Jiuyuan and Shangjun.
This place, not only adjacent to Jiuyuan and Shangjun, but also overlooking Wuwei and Yunpu, once the opening of the field, will immediately become an extremely important place for the distribution of goods.
Of course, this is only a general framework and intention, and the specific content needs to be further improved.
No one knew that it was not Zhao Ying's purpose to set up the field, his purpose was to pry open a crack again on the track of Great Qin's original history.
He did his best to strengthen Daqin's vigorous chariot that could not be stopped, and tried to tighten its reins.
Naturally, he could not accept the feudal system of Fusu, but if possible, he wanted to unite as much as possible all the forces that could be united, as the great man said.
Strict defense against trade is not the trend of history.
Appropriate relaxation, appropriate concessions, in this era, if Daqin wants to have long-term peace and stability, it is almost impossible to simply and rudely copy the successful cases in Guanzhong, it must properly give benefits to the people of the world!
Trade is one of the most important links.
Only in this way can this group of people be tied to Daqin's chariot as much as possible, as for the rest, even if there are any ideas, they need to be slowly figured out, and they must not be rushed.
As the saying goes, governing a big country is like cooking a small fresh!
……
Because of the relationship between the Huns, Zhao Ying finally intervened in the negotiations with the Huns.
Of course, he didn't need to go to Mobei.
But they can put forward their own suggestions for the negotiation openly, and Li Si and Meng Yi also attach more importance to the suggestions of the emperor's eldest grandson, which makes Zhao Ying's plan go more smoothly.
Of course, the negotiations with the Xiongnu were just a small episode for Zhao Ying.
His main task is to be honestly his own worker, responsible for helping the First Emperor deal with government affairs, sharing the pressure of the First Emperor, and another urgent matter.
The first imperial examination of the Great Qin Empire is coming.
His Royal Highness Zhao Ying, the eldest grandson of the emperor, who is the champion general, served as the chief examiner of the imperial examination.
Together with Taiwei Yu and Wucheng Marquis Wang Qian, two highly respected old men, they jointly served as the chief examiners of this martial arts examination, and together with Zuo Xiang Li Si and Shangqing Meng Yi, they jointly served as the chief examiners of this literary examination.
As soon as this news came out, the world was shaken!
The title of the champion general, the emperor's eldest grandson Zhao Ying, has soared and completely entered everyone's field of vision.
If everyone was still shocked by his unparalleled record, now, it is the first time that he has officially appeared to the world as a new rising rookie.
Many people of insight understand in their hearts that this is the first emperor using this imperial examination to build up momentum for the emperor's eldest grandson, and an era that belongs to the emperor's eldest grandson is coming.
Whether it is the highly respected Taiwei Yu, the Marquis of Wucheng Wang Jian who has made great achievements, or the powerful Zuo Prime Minister Li Si, or the Shangqing Meng Yi who is deeply trusted by the First Emperor, it is enough to take one out alone.
However, this time, everyone is just the foil of the emperor's eldest grandson.
So, Your Majesty the First Emperor, what the hell is this trying to do—
Many people secretly looked at Shangjun.
The eldest son Fusu!
Is this a sign that the eldest son Fusu is about to be recalled, the eldest son of Daqin, who is kind-hearted and benevolent and loves people, is it really because he has such an excellent son to be able to return to Xianyang and take over the pending authority.
Zhao Ying's days were filled with busyness again, in addition to assisting the First Emperor in handling government affairs, he also had to seriously ponder the questions of the imperial examination.
This test question is a direction, and it is also a very clear signal released by the imperial court to the people of the world, and he cannot be allowed to slack off.
……
And just when Zhao Ying was busy and dizzy, Li Shiqi, who was in the Mobei negotiations, was like a fish in water.
