Chapter 367: There Are Two Books, One for Economics and One for Politics! (Ask for subscription)
The arrival of Fusu was unexpected by everyone.
Even Du He was shocked and hurriedly trotted to the door.
Others also got up.
Enter the temple.
Fusu swept the audience indifferently, a smile swept up at the corner of his mouth, and said lightly: "It seems that the ministers have a lot of opinions on Fusu's proposal, but this time so many economic ministers are here, Fusu is uninvited, and he also wants to argue with you." ”
Fusu strode into the temple.
He sat down on the main seat.
Feng Quji and Du He also hurriedly changed to a position a little below.
Then.
Linghu Fan opened his mouth and said, "Your Highness, you should indeed give your ministers an explanation. ”
"The minister knows that His Royal Highness has the heart to do things, and he also has the idea of sharing the burden for the country, but the country's major politics are not child's play, and you can't make some decisions as soon as your brain is hot, and everything decided by the court is finally arrived at after many discussions and debates, not like Your Highness, which was changed in a hurry without a call."
"This is not in line with the rules of the Great Qin Imperial Court."
"And at the beginning of the founding of the Great Qin, the strategy for the Kanto region had already been set, how could it be such a rash change?"
Zhao Ping also said: "Your Highness." ”
"Kanto is already unancient, with wolf ambitions, if you build a warehouse in Kanto, with the situation of the thieves in Kanto, if it falls into their hands one day, it will definitely become a big trouble for the imperial court, and the imperial court will pay a greater price if it wants to use this to clean up."
"That's not right."
The others also chimed in: "Your Highness, please think twice." ”
"Your Highness should take Great Qin as the most important thing."
“.”
Listening to the doubts and objections of these economic ministers, Fusu's face remained as usual, and there was no change.
When their voices gradually quieted down, Fusu said with a straight face: "What the ministers think, how can Fusu not know?" But just as Fusu did in the past and insisted on the same, Fusu always believed that after the unification of the world, there should be no more distinction between the old and new Qin people, let alone the suspicion of the Central Kanto. ”
"Admittedly."
"At the beginning of the founding of the country, it was necessary to strictly defend the Kanto region."
"But is it true that Great Qin wants to be like this forever?"
"When is this going to be a head?"
Hear the words.
Feng Qujian said, "Your Highness is cautious. ”
"His Royal Highness's dissatisfaction, the minister can understand, it's just that the rift between Kanto and Guanzhong has been around for a long time, and it can't be alleviated in ten years, and the imperial court will never treat Kanto like this all the time, but if you want the imperial court to relax its control over Kanto, at least wait until Kanto is completely annexed, otherwise in terms of the current situation in Kanto, giving more support to Kanto is undoubtedly raising tigers."
"So the imperial court used to calculate political accounts." Fusu nodded and said, "It's just that Fusu has one thing to ask, when will this political account be settled?" Continue to use the current differential treatment, can you really ease Kanto and Guanchu? Fracture suture? ”
Fusu coldly swept the audience.
And no one dared to say anything.
No one dared to take this conversation.
Because they don't know either.
Fu Su snorted coldly, a touch of displeasure flashed in his eyes, and he said angrily: "The people present today are basically the ministers of the economy, and it is your job to be in charge of the economy, so let me ask you again, have you ever calculated the economic accounts for this?" ”
The hall was quieter.
Zhang Cang's eyes moved slightly, and his face showed a different color.
He suddenly felt as if Fusu was waiting, and Duhe summoned these economic ministers together.
Fusu said indifferently: "Since you don't want to say it, then I, Fusu, to govern the world, there should always be two account books, one is to calculate economic accounts, and the other is to calculate political accounts. ”
"The Great Qin Dynasty came to build various water conservancy projects in the world, build the Great Wall, gallop straight roads, and so on."
"It's all a political account."
"Politics does not focus on the economic level, but only on the ultimate political gain."
"But sometimes it's not enough to just look at politics."
"You have to take care of the economy."
"I'm going to do the opposite this time."
"Focus on economic accounts."
"I'm afraid you all know what I'm going to do."
"In the past, Daqin only had one big general warehouse, that is, Ao Cang."
"Ao Cang hoards almost all the grain collected by Great Qin, and the court officials, local officials, and all kinds of financial expenditures are distributed from Ao Cang, in other words, Ao Cang is the real treasury of Great Qin."
"When Great Qin ruled the world, there were thirty-six counties."
"It's forty-eight counties now."
"The number of counties is as high as seven or eight hundred."
"Such a huge government agency, the expenditure of money and food comes from one place, just the loss on the road, it will be an astronomical amount, at the beginning of the founding of the country, Daqin's finances were barely full, and it can be so, but now Daqin's finances are stretched, and then a lot of money and grain are spent on the road, is it a little more than worth the loss?"
"It is undoubtedly exacerbating the ineffective loss of finance."
"Again."
"Build a warehouse in the Kanto region."
"It can reduce a lot of road losses, for the local area, for the imperial court, it will reduce a lot of burden and expenses, in addition, I do propose to build a warehouse in the Kanto, but my warehouse, to speak, is only a temporary transit place, the grain, grass, salt and iron hoarded in it, at most one year, must be delivered to the place, and it will never be made a second Ao Cang."
"In this way, these warehouses have only become temporary warehouses, and when the distribution of money and grain in Daqin is determined, the money and grain allocated by the local government will be transported from these warehouses, and the excess will be transported to Ao Cang, and they will never stay in Kanto for a single cent, so you will undoubtedly have a lot less to worry about."
"The warehouses are scattered, only for the distribution of materials, and there is no backlog and hoarding."
"Such a warehouse will do more harm than good to Daqin."
Hear the words.
The ministers' eyes moved slightly.
They were speechless.
Fusu said: "Of course, the economy and politics are not separated from each other many times, if it is only the economy, how can I Fusu spend so much trouble and lock myself in the study for a few days?" ”
"But the political accounts I calculate are different from those of you."
"I'm mixed with more financial accounts."
"Since the founding of the Great Qin, the fiscal expenditure has increased year after year, and the local rent and tax collection has become more and more insufficient to support, so the imperial court has to levy additional taxes year after year, making the bottom miserable and complaining, all of which stem from the huge lack of finance."
"It is not advisable to fish as hard as you can."
"Daqin continues to levy and extort in such a high-pressure situation, how long can it last, I'm afraid you don't know the bottom in your hearts, and the reason why Daqin's finances are stretched to such a point, I'm afraid you, as the Minister of Economy, know the reason better than me."
"The Daqin Local Government Office, since the founding of the country, has rarely been full."
"Some unimportant government offices are even more ornamental."
"In this situation, continuing to settle the so-called political accounts will not help at all, and it will only make the situation worse and worse, and it will become more and more difficult to return, so I want to reverse this trend and change the status quo."
"Therefore, in the past few years, Fusu has been committed to alleviating the conflict between Kanto and the audience."
"I have always been interested in promoting the Kanto scholars, but compared to the erosive Kanto, these changes are always insignificant, but I believe that with the gradual strengthening of the imperial court's rectification of the Kanto, the situation in the Kanto region will get better and better."
"Just."
"These actions of the imperial court will definitely cause more and more people to be jealous and uneasy."
"These people have two hearts, and they will definitely respond accordingly."
"As for which forces are targeted, I may have different views from the ministers of the imperial court." Fusu shook his sleeves slightly, and his eyes were a little more solemn and solemn.
He said in a deep voice: "In your eyes, there is no worse disease in the world than nobles and scholars. ”
"But in Fusu's eyes, in addition to the nobles and scholars, there are also officials and heroes at both ends of the local head and rat, but in the past, the nobles and scholars were too rampant, so that many people ignored the real darkness at the bottom."
"As for why I am afraid of the local officials and Haoqiang, with the knowledge of the ministers, I am afraid that I will be able to react soon."
Fusu looked at everyone with a smile.
Feng Quji and the others glanced at each other, and after thinking for a while, they vaguely guessed one or two.
It's just that none of them thought to say it.
Fusu didn't care.
He looked around, but he didn't see tea, and there was a look of disappointment in his eyes.
He shook his head and continued: "Under the governing system of Great Qin, or the political context of Huaxia, it has always been dominated by the government. ”
"The government decides everything in the world."
"In the past, most of the officials were born scholars, whether they were powerful or businessmen, they were mostly dependent on scholars."
"What I am pushing for is to break the old pattern of the local area, which will definitely attract the dissatisfaction of the old local forces."
"Among them, the most influential are local officials and Haoqiang."
"The reason is actually quite simple."
"They control the land and livelihoods that affect the livelihoods of millions of people at the bottom."
"Land is the foundation of the survival of the people at the bottom, and the real power control of the officials over the local government can contain the throat of the life of the bottom."
"Neither of these things, Daqin has no control."
"Although the local officials and the powerful are not as united as the nobles and scholars, and it is difficult to really collude with each other, the imperial court has never effectively governed the Kanto, which is always a huge hidden danger."
"You can't have the heart to harm others, and you can't have the heart to prevent people."
"What's more, it's a matter of national security?"
"In Fusu's view, there are actually three ways for the local alliance to confront the imperial court."
"One is to follow the example of the Tian family."
Hearing the Tian family's generation, the faces of everyone in the hall changed.
A look of horror on his face.
How can this be said freely?
And how can Haoqiang and local officials have such insight and ability?
Fusu said lightly: "The Tian family is the generation of Qi, the main line is to go out of the big bucket, the small bucket to enter, and reduce the commission to win the hearts of the people, and the imperial court has to increase the levy year after year due to financial problems, in comparison, it is undoubtedly more popular with Haoqiang." ”
"When the imperial court begins to levy taxes again in the future, they can easily point the finger at the imperial court and stir up the dissatisfaction of the Qiantou against the imperial court."
"So as to achieve the goal of bringing chaos to the world."
"Second, by borrowing local customs and old concepts, they criticized Qin Zheng, and blamed all the bad local policies on Qin Zheng, causing the local people to hate Great Qin.
"If there is a drought, the court suggests digging a well, and they use the ghosts and gods to let the place ask for rain, and then ask for rain, and then blame the problem on the court, thinking that the court is in chaos, causing no rain in the world, and the court levies money and food, and they coerce the local people, attack the court, confront the court, and even directly resist violently."
"It's all possible."
"The last one."
"It's under the pressure of Daqin step by step."
"These entrenched forces in the local area colluded with the nobles and scholars to directly create riots in the localities."
"Land is the most fundamental wealth in the world."
"Controlling the land also means controlling the vast majority of the world's resources, and the Qianshou himself does not have much ability to take risks, so in the end, it can only be 'the government forcing the people to rebel'."
"Ministers, do not doubt the wickedness of human nature."
"At the beginning, the merchants dared to make the Huaixian shipwreck for the sake of money and food, but now it is related to their wealth and power, how can they not fight hard? That's why I wanted to build a warehouse in Kanto. ”
"for temporary storage."
"The purpose is to centralize these money, grain, salt and iron under the control of the imperial court, minimize the space for local forces to intervene, and at the same time with the help of the transportation of materials and goods, to investigate the attitudes and opinions of local officials towards the imperial court, and then further begin to rectify and clean up the local officialdom, and completely eliminate the black sheep in the local officialdom."
"Ensure that the local wind is clean and upright."
"However, it will undoubtedly take a lot of time and effort to break the old regional pattern in the Kanto region."
"And it is obviously not enough to rely only on the transfer of non-commissioned officers and the officials recruited by the merit order to change the old pattern of the locality, and these people in the local area will not really sit still, they may not be able to react in the front, but they will definitely be able to react later."
"Until then."
"Their reaction is going to be incredibly strong."
"So you can't do it directly at the place."
"The only way to break them is to break them one by one."
"Start with the economy-related official offices, one is to increase the finances of the imperial court, and the other is to use this to win over other officials, the world is bustling for profit, and if you want to succeed, you are destined to pay the price first."
"It's inevitable to make profits."
Speaking of which.
A flash of disdain and coldness flashed in Fusu's eyes.
He said indifferently: "The court's concession is only temporary, not really to give it away, but to get back the greater benefits." ”
"It's going to be a long time coming."
"The attitude of the imperial court towards Kanto will be ambiguous."
"It is a severe punishment, with additional concessions, and then the court gains, and then concessions, and then gradually pulls it down, and the court will gradually tear apart the old pattern of the Kanto region, completely control the Kanto, and establish a set of real and effective government decrees from the world."
"Kanto will also be completely owned by Great Qin."
"There is no more power."
"This is Fusu's idea, do you ministers still have opinions?"
Fusu looked at everyone in the field indifferently.
At this moment, the audience was silent.
Everyone hung their heads and did not speak.
seems to be calculating in his heart the possibility of what Fusu has done can be done.
